Hi! I'm back!
Sheba: Joy.
Jenna: Joy.
Such sarcasm fills their voices, it's not my fault it took so long to update!
Sheba: Yes, it is.
Fine. I was in a strange painting mood! So I painted!
Sheba: If you dare.
Chapter 2--Alone
Jenna shivered. the unfamiliar blankets were cold and chilling. Tears ran down her white cheeks. Despair filled her mind. She sniffled, and pulled the blankets over her head as if she were trying to block the world out. Alone, so alone . . .
Jenna trembled, trying not to cry, and wake the other residents of the house. How she wanted to scream, scream until she couldn't any longer.
Why, why did it have to be me? was all she could think. How she missed her parents and brother to comfort her. Her grandparents were gone looking for survivers, leaving her with Isaac's "family". There was no one now who wanted her. No one.
To her surprise, soft comforting hand touched her back.
"It will be all right," a soothing voice said. "It will be alright." It seemed to warm her from the cold air as she fell into a deep dreamless sleep.
* * *
She awoke not realizing where she was. Panic erupted in her mind finding she was not in her room. But then she saw Isaac, sleeping in a bed on the opposite side of the room. She was in Isaac's room, suddenly, she remembered everything. Tears came to her eyes again.
"Felix . . ." she cried, "forgive me . . . forgive me." She began rocking, her head in her hands, comfort didn't come. "Where am I to go now? What am I to do? Oh Felix . . . I . . .I'm sorry . . ."
The air was cold, Jenna pulled the blankets closer. She shivered, the house was quiet besides Isaac's breathing, and her own.
Nothing in the entire house was hers, besides the tunic she wore last night. It was hanging by the bed, damp and dirty from the night before. Jenna felt a chill run down her spine. She looked away from it as if it were cursed.
The looks on their faces when it fell on them . . . how the pure terror filled her heart, stabbing her, leaving the fire adept feeling empty.
If only you could travel the skies,
Forget all the horrible troubles and lies
Jenna looked up, Isaac smiled at her. His bright blue eyes filled her with hope.
If only there weren't misjudgments and wars,
but peace on earth, forever more.
She never heard him sing before, but it made it feel like magic was running through her veins, making Jenna burn with life again.
If only love was never to die,
and make the lovers weep and cry.
If only you could travel the skies,
Forget the horrible troubles and lies . . .
He stopped, and Jenna sobbed.
"Isaac?" she asked, "How can you smile? Your father . . . he . . ."
Isaac sat next to her, holding her shoulders. "Their bodies haven't been found yet," he replied. "Have faith, they're still alive."
"How can you be sure?" Jenna asked, tears running down her cheeks, her eyes red and puffy.
"I can feel it," Isaac replied. Jenna looked up at him, a single pearly tear ran down his face.
"I'm so worried . . ." Jenna cried, "I told Felix he would be okay . . . that help would come . . . but it didn't! It didn't turn out right!" She tore from his grasp, and went to the window.
"Jenna . . ." Isaac tried, but was swatted away like a fly.
"Leave ma alone Isaac . . . If I had acted sooner, Kyle and my family would still be alive!"
"There's still a chance that they are!" Isaac's voice raise from anger.
"I'm sorry Isaac," Jenna turned towards him, her face dark, "I guess I don't have enough hope. I mean, what is the chance they did survive? None! And it is my fault!"
"You musn't take this on yourself," Isaac tried to comfort her. "Nothing could have stopped it, it was fate Jenna. You musn't blame yourself for something that couldn't be prevented."
"How do you know?!" Jenna yelled. "You don't know what it's like to loose your family!" She ran from the room sobbing. Puddles of tears were left on the wood floor.
"Jenna . . ." Isaac whispered in distress. "You've always had such hope . . . where has it gone?"
If only you could travel the skies . . .
Forget the horrible troubles and lies . . .
Jenna ran, as fast as her legs could carry her. Dodging trees and rocks, she made her way up the slopes of Mt. Alph, leaving her world behind . . .

So ends Chapter 2! I hope you enjoyed it.
Jenna: *sob*
Sheba: Waah, I'm not in this!
Jenna: We don't even know you yet.
] Sheba: So! I still matter! I fell from the sky, I'm like a goddess, and I'm not even in an emotional fanfic!
Maybe next time. Well, see you later!
Sheba: WAAAAAHHHH!!!
Sheba: Joy.
Jenna: Joy.
