Chapter Ten
Queen Alina Strikes
Tristan and Kaleigh fall asleep.
Kaleigh wakes up around midnight and runs to the bathroom that is attached to her room.
Tristan hears her but pays no attention.
Kaleigh throws up twice, she walks back into the room and crawls back into bed.
Tristan opens his eyes.
"Are you okay Kale?" Tristan asks.
"No, I'm not okay Tris" Kaleigh answers.
"What's wrong Kale? Tristan asks.
"I've got an upset stomach, I'm really weak, and I have a splitting migraine" Kaleigh answers.
Tristan puts his hand on Kaleigh's forehead.
"You've got a fever too" Tristan says.
"Tristan I feel terrible" Kaleigh replies.
Tristan pulls Kaleigh into his arms.
Kaleigh smiles.
"I'll look after you my Kale" Tristan says.
"I know that Tris" Kaleigh replies.
Tristan kisses Kaleigh on the top of her head.
They fall back to sleep.
A few hours later Kaleigh wakes up again.
Tristan opens his eyes and sees Kaleigh sitting on the edge of the bed.
"What's wrong now Kale?" Tristan asks.
"I'm.. so .. cold.. Tris" Kaleigh answers between shivers.
"Kaleigh you're shivering" Tristan says.
"Yeah of course I'm freezing" Kaleigh replies.
"What is could be causing this?" Tristan asks.
"Tristan it's not what it is who" Kaleigh answers.
"What do you mean?" Tristan asks.
"It's Queen Alina" Kaleigh answers.
"How is Queen Alina making you sick? Tristan asks.
"Queen Alina is using her staff to drain my power which is making me sick" Kaleigh answers.
"How do I stop Queen Alina?" Tristan asks.
"Tristan you have to destroy her staff" Kaleigh answers.
Tristan kisses Kaleigh on the cheek and takes off to Queen Alina's layer in the negabass.
"Queen Alina you leave my wife alone" Tristan yells.
"I won't leave Queen Serenity alone" Queen Alina screams.
Tristan grabs Queen Alina's staff and breaks it over his knee.
Queen Alina starts screaming.
Tristan goes back to Kaleigh's house and walks up to her room.
"Did you get rid of Queen Alina 's staff?" Kaleigh asks.
"Yeah I did Kale" Tristan answers.
Kaleigh kisses Tristan the cheek.
"Do you remember what the day after tomorrow is?" Kaleigh asks.
"Yeah of course I do it's Serena's 10th birthday" Tristan answers.
"I was thinking of throwing Serena a surprise party" Kaleigh says.
"Kaleigh that's a great idea" Tristan replies.
"Can you get Serena out the house for a couple of hours so I can get ready for her surprise party?" Kaleigh asks.
"I can do that for you Kale" Tristan answers.
"Thanks Tris" Kaleigh says.
"It's no problem because I just take her shopping or something" Tristan replies.
Kaleigh and Tristan fall back to sleep.
