Desert Journey
The streets of Tolbi warmed with Sol's golden glow, causing plumes of heat to rise into the clear sky. The inhabitants slept undisturbed in their stone houses, not yet ready to great the day through over their straw roofs. Two were awake though, and walking along the granite walls of Babi's palace.
"Garet," Ivan seemed to be more hyper than a djinn on sugar. "You won't believe what happened yesterday!"
Garet groaned in pain, and covered his eyes to blot out any light.
"Ivan, shut up. I have a serious migraine."
"And where did that ache come from?" Ivan questioned all too innocently.
Garet half-heartedly threw a punch, "Where are Isaac and Mia at?"
Ivan smiled insidiously, before responding, "I don't know. Why don't you check Mia's room while I check Isaac's?" The two turned down separate hallways to wake their comrades.
Garet lumbered down the hall to Mia's wooden door. He knocked loudly, before hearing a light yawn.
"Who is it?" Mia's muffled voice asked nervously.
"Its Garet, can I come in?"
"Just a minute," there were slight rustles of movement and hushed whispers.
"Isaac's not in his room," Ivan walked up behind the waiting Garet.
The door to Mia's room finally creaked open, to show the healer in her usual robes. She stepped back while Garet and Ivan scanned the room for any sign of Isaac, but neither could see any.
"Babi would like to meet with us before we leave," Ivan informed Mia. "Have you seen Isaac?"
Mia blushed lightly, "No, I haven't seen him." Neither Ivan nor Garet notice where her eyes were glued.
"Why don't you two keep looking for him, and I will meet you in front of the throne room?" Ivan and Garet were forcefully pushed out into the bright hallway.
Mia slammed the door shut and slid to the ground with a sigh of relief. She then pressed her ear against the door to hear retreating footsteps.
'Are they gone yet?' Mia looked up to the cedar rafters and nodded.
Isaac fell to the floor with a light thud and straightened slowly. He reached down and pulled Mia up with him and soon the two were in a lover's embrace.
"We really should go meet Garet and Ivan," Mia tried to halt Isaac's light kisses down her neck, but she failed miserably.
Finally, reason reentered the two adept's hormone clogged minds, and both separated, blushing.
'Later?" Isaac asked hopefully.
"Later, I promise," Mia giggled and lightly pecked Isaac on the cheek, before leading him out the door and into the vacant hallway.
Babi sat high on his golden throne, stroking his long grey beard in pondering. The four adepts had accepted his proposition, but the price for closure was high. They would sail to Lemuria, an island of ancient completely clouded in mist, on his ship. They would bring back the mystic draught, which could bequeath the drinker with longer life, only if he would present them with his precious Cloak Ball.
"It was a high toll, but soon it will pay off tenfold!" Babi cackled maniacally as he turned into his chambers.
From within a locked cupboard, he pulled out a large black raven. This was no ordinary raven though. It possessed not two, but five eyes, each a beady black. Its claws were larger than a normal one, and it seemed to reek of decay. Tying a letter to its red claw, Babi threw the bird into the night sky. Soon his master would have this newest piece of information, and he would be greatly rewarded.
Sol rained heat relentlessly down upon the adepts as they crossed through the blinding sandstorms of the Suhalla Desert. The whirling winds increased as the adepts reached the desert floor. Ahead, a new swirl of brightly colored winds caught Ivan's attention.
"Is that tornado pink?" Ivan exclaimed when he caught sight of the massive windstorm.
"I believe it is, how strange," Mia mumbled before stretching her arms outward.
She glowed aquamarine, and a tiny black cloud formulated over the fast moving twister. A torrent of water unleashed into the twirling sands, dousing them until they stopped. A single crimson claw reached out of the fading veil, and a titanic creature steeped forth.
The being was a tornado lizard, but it was larger than any the adepts had ever seen before. Its bright yellow, scaled head reached the clouds in the sky as it let out an earth-shattering roar. Its blood red eyes looked down in challenge at the adepts. The lizard's crimson body pulled back as it released a massive slash of winds through the party.
'Earthquake,' Isaac threw the lizard of balance while Ivan used released the electrical might of, "Shine plasma."
The lizard reeled back in pain, and Garet was not one to let this opportunity pass. With a battle cry, he swung his sword, cleaving off one of the lizard's arms. However, Garet had forgotten about the other clawed limb, and a few seconds later, he was embedded in a nearby cliff face. Mia was already by his side with a ply spell that instantly closed his bleeding wounds. Without even a word of thanks, he rushed back into the battle.
'Ragnarok,' a sword of pure Venus psynergy pierced the lizard's hide, the final stage of the flight. It swayed from the constant onslaught it had experienced and fell, right towards Isaac. He had no time to move, and the descending gold and crimson bulk insured his demise.
"Pyroclasm!" the lizard's body was instantly made ash by the four plumes of Mar's volcanic might.
Garet stood beside Isaac, using his left arm to balance his right. The burning flames continued for seconds more, before completely dissipating. The three adepts near the lizard had survived, but each was completely covered in onyx soot.
"Douse," the three adepts were quickly clean and Mia soon tended to their wounds. While she did this, she voiced Isaac's inaudible word of thanks.
"Garet," she tried to get his attention, "Isaac would like to thank you. . ." she stopped, for Garet had already turned and walked away.
He was soon out of sight, but Mia was not one to let him go. She raced off in pursuit and eventually caught up to the slower adept. Garet was cornered and had to endure the mad Mia's verbal onslaught.
"Why can't you just accept Isaac?" Mia exclaimed to Garet. He jumped back with his own fiery rebuke.
"I can never accept that demon for what he really is. I . . ." Garet was stopped by Mia's angry glare that pierced deep into his heart.
"You should know by now that Isaac is a kind person, who would protect anyone with even more than his life. He would give anything of himself to insure our safety." Mia's face reddened further as she finished, "Why can't you let go of your foolish superstition?" This quieted Garet's rants and Mia started walking away, leaving a somber Garet behind.
"Mia," Garet called softly. "Do you think it is too late to apologize?" there were tears hidden in his eyes.
"It is never too late," Mia moved back over to him and gave him a light hug.
Garet returned the friendly embrace and smiled, "Thank you, Mia."
The four adepts could see the edge of the desert as it gradually transformed from burning sands to the normal lush grass and trees. In the fading swirling sands of Suhalla, two tiny round creatures waddled forth. Brown and red, the two djinni were angry.
