Avi was coming to. When she could see clearly Avi looked around, she was still on the streets but on the side instead of in the middle. It was raining,and night had fallen. She sat up, Rumor was there talking to a young man,about Avi's age. The young man had dirty blonde hair not in the sense of greasy or muddy, but that was what kind of blonde he was. His blonde hair reached his eyes, and was messy from the rain. His kind brown eyes were intently on Rumor, most likely listening to instructions that Rumor was giving him. After their conversation ended they turned to Avi, the boy smiled kindly at her and Rumor looked worried. For the first time since waking, Avi noticed Phineas standing by Rumor, his hand over her shoulder. Phineas scowled at Avi, her eyes no longer flashing with love as when she was looking on Rumor, but they flashed with hatred as they scanned Avi. Avi cringed at the pain in her nose, the blood was gone from her face,but still it stained her clothes.
She tried to smile back at the boy, but she was still very weak. "Avi, can you tell us what happened?" Rumor whispered softly, bending over her. Avi sighed thinking, then she drew a deep breath and told them everything that happened in detail, so not to leave anything out that might be of important use. Rumor frowned, but Phinea seemed happy,when Avi confessed she was almost killed. The boy listened without a word spoken, except for a slight nod you would think he was not listening at all. "Well, I need to go search the spot were you got attacked, I will leave Wiley here to protect you." Rumor spoke softly, gesturing to the boy who Avi guessed was Wiley. "What about me,my beloved!" Phinea said in a whiny tone. "You my dear, will go back to your home, but I do not want you to go to Mavericks house, so stay clear there, ok my darling." Rumor cooed to Phineas, like Maverick did to Avi. This made Avi cringe. Rumor and Phinea shared a passionate kiss, which made Avi wince. She did not know why that hurt her so. "Bye honey" squealed Phinea as she ran past them. "Be good Avi, I will be back soon!" Rumor shouted over his shoulder laughing,her face of disgust by being treated like a child. " Well, how are you feeling Avi?" spoke Wiley in a kind voice.
She felt better than a few minutes ago, she had to admit that. Avi smiled at him "I am feeling better, better than before at least." He laughed, and that made Avi feel good. "You were out cold for at least fifteen minutes, that must have been some punch." He said seriously, sitting next to her on the stone floor of the awning they were under. Avi just nodded, not knowing what to say. A single solitary tear fell down her cheek, she wiped it away trying to keep Wiley from seeing, but it was to late. Wiley took her into a friendly embrace, much to Avi surprise and,she hated to admit it , delight. "It's ok Avi, I know what you are going through, it's ok!" Wiley spoke softly, comforting her by patting her back. Avi's tears were streaming freely down her cheeks now. She hated crying, but she could not help herself. After many minutes past she ceased her sobs. Wiley let her go with a final pat on the back.
"Thanks Wiley, I needed that." Avi said, a little embarrassed at herself. "Sorry, I just was overwhelmed with all my feelings." Avi whispered sheepishly, her cheeks burning. Wiley smiled "I understand, I would cry if I were in your situation also." he said softly. A little embarrassed at himself also, for getting so close to her. They talked about many things, Avi found that he was from the same legion Rumor was, and that he would be traveling with them. She was happy to hear this, but her mood dropped to the negatives when she heard Phineas was also going to join them. "My family is also gone, they were killed in a fire." Wiley sighed sadly. Avi found that she was liking Wiley more and more. After two hours Wiley and Avi were laughing so hard, they did not even think of were Rumor was. After another half hour Avi came to her senses "Where's Rumor, should he not be back by now?" Wiley stopped mid laugh, yes Rumor should have of been back a long while ago!!
"Come, we must look to see if he is ok!" Wiley shouted while jumping up, he grabbed Avi's hand and led her, but then he stopped. "Where was it you were attacked Avi?" Wiley asked softly, letting Avi's hand go. "Oh I will never forgive myself if something happens to him, what will I do!" Avi shouted as she tugged Wiley along, quickly she came upon the place were she was attacked. Rumor was nowhere to be seen. Avi gasped and pointed, there was a figure on the ground. Wiley raced over, scooped up the figure and brought it to Avi. Avi screamed in dismay, laying in Wiley's arms lay Eleanor. She scooped Eleanor into her arms, and hugged her. Why did this have to happen, the world had taken everything from her now, there was nothing left to live for. Avi cried so hard, Wiley did not even know what to do.
Wiley examined the little girl, he noticed a slight rise and fall of her chest. "Wait she is alive, see Avi, her chest is moving!" Avi looked at Eleanors chest,and found Wiley was right "She's ok, oh my,thank the Lord, but we must get her to safety!" Avi shouted frantically,looking around frantically. "We have to see if Rumor is ok first, though remember Avi!" Wiley reminded Avi softly. Avi nodded, and as if called from the dead Rumor appeared. "OH MY, Eleanor, what happened Avi?!" Rumor shouted frantically. "WE have to get her to safety, quick!" Avi sighed nervously. Nodding, Rumor took Eleanor from Avi,and slung her over her shoulder gently
Hello again, who do you think will win Avi, Rumor or Wiley? Well just email me and let me know. HEHEHE, Of course I already know who it will be,but that does not mean I don't want to know your opinion though, and it may sway my choice of who it will be lol. . Thanks for readin, and once again REVIEW!!!! I had just come home from sparring the last time I wrote, so I guess that inspired the punching in the nose thing, although we never seriously hurt each other in sparring. Unless it is by accident lol hehehe.
