Isaac and Krystal walked through the forest until they came to a cave. "We
can sleep here" Isaac said. "I'll go get some wood so we can make a fire"
Krystal walked into the forest and came back a couple of minutes later,
carrying an armful of firewood. She walked into the cave and put it down in
the center. Isaac took out his sword and rubbed a rock against its blade.
"This would be a lot easier if I were a fire adept" He said frustrated. The
wood went up in flames. "That was quick," he said surprised. "Yeah, I'm
going to bed, night" Krystal said, "Um, ok" Isaac said lying down, "night"
Hours later, Krystal awoke from a dream. It was dark, and the fire had burnt out. She got up and walked outside. She had only taken a few steps, when she heard footsteps behind her. Fear seized her, but instead of running, she stayed her ground, ready to fight.
Krystal turned around and swung, hitting something soft. "Whoa! Don't kill me!" Isaac stood in front of her, hands raised as if surrendering. "Isaac?" her hand remained on his stomach, "you frightened me." Other words raced to her mouth, but her mind cut them off. With rising embarrassment, she realized her hand was still on him. What was she doing? She quickly dropped her hand, and took a step backward, not understanding what had come through her a minute ago.
Isaac was so taken aback by her actions, that his mind went blank. "Why are you awake?" He asked uneasily. "Oh, uh, I decided to take a walk, that's all. What about you?" She asked, still nervous. "Oh, I had a dream about chocolate cake, it made me real hungry, so I decided to look for something to eat" He said. 'Chocolate cake?" She asked laughing, feeling back to her normal self. Isaac nodded, "Yeah, and for once they were all mine!" he said, grinning happily. "I don't think that there will be any chocolate cake out here, in the middle of no where." Krystal said, "But you can try" "Ok, you can go back to what you were doing, I don't want to interfere with anything" Isaac said.
As soon as Isaac walked away, Krystal ran back into the cave. She paced, trying to recollect her thoughts. "What's wrong with me?" She asked herself, "I always thought he was cute, but I never thought I'd really LIKE him, wait, do I? Maybe I shouldn't think about that" She said, sitting against the wall. She looked up and saw Isaac walking into the cave, carrying a bunch of berries. "Want some?" He asked giving one to her. "These are bayberries." she said, "So?" he replied, "There poisonous" "Shit." Isaac turned white, "I'm screwed, aren't I?" "No, I'm a water adept, remember?" "Oh yeah, forgot about that" He could feel himself going numb.
All of the sudden, a Mercury djinn popped out from behind Krystal. "You know what to do" She said. The djinn jumped up on Isaac's arm and bit him. "HOLY CRAP!!" he screamed, "That hurt like hell!" "Sorry, he tends to bite pretty hard. Do you feel better?" she asked. "Yeah" Isaac said holding his arm. "Your gonna be tired." Krystal said, "The djinn's power to cure poison seems to do that" "Ok, thanks for warning me" He said drowsily. "I'll just go back to sleep then"
Krystal walked back outside and sat down on a fallen tree. "Why am I even staying here?" She asked herself aloud, "There's no need to bring other people into my world's problems." She looked down at the ground, "I guess I'll just have to see when the time comes" It was later then she thought, she saw the faint light of the rising sun peeking out from behind the trees. "Another day of fighting of the desires of love." she mumbled.
