Chapter 7

Onua started towards the University. She knew Numair was in the middle of one of his classes, but she really didn't care, this was more important. Numair was her closest friend, but she would never have expected him to do such a thing. She needed to talk to him and find out what he was thinking and give him a piece of her mind.

She entered his classroom through large, thick oak doors, and found herself surrounded by at least 75 Pages. Now that she was there and all eyes were on her, she was even more determined to do what she had come for. She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at Numair, who watched her with sorrow filled eyes.

"Class is dismissed," he said solemnly. He could tell he was in for it this time.

Onua waited until the students cleared out and then headed towards the front of the room.

"I know why you're here and I know. I-" He stopped, looking down at the arrangement of papers that were on his desk.

Onua could see him trembling. She knew he loved her, but he made the biggest mistake.

"You promised. You gave me your word that you wouldn't break her heart! After all that has happened, you-"

"I know! Believe me I know. I cause her too much pain when I'm with her. It would be best for her if I wasn't with her." He said. His voice was filled with anger for himself.

"How can you say that?! Look at all you two have been through, what you've been able to do, to overcome!" Onua was furious at her friend for being so blind.

"That's exactly it. When she thought I was dead in Carthak, she destroyed everything. When I was in Carthak, she was envious of Varice. I can't keep her safe from the pain I'll end up causing her in the end."

"Numair! Look at what you're saying! You don't cause her pain, you give her a reason to live! Those events weren't your fault. They are things you have overcome together. You fail to realize all the times you have saved her. You taught her how to control her magic, you saved her from going crazy. You saved her from Tristan; you turned him into a tree! And if it wasn't for you, Daine would be dead from falling off that cliff in the Divine Realms." She was pleading with him, anything to get him to understand.

"You can't change my mind Onua. I've already made my decision" Numair picked up his books and turned to go, his robe flaring behind him.

"Numair, you don't just walk away from the best thing that has ever happened to you, please!" Onua watched the door close behind him.

*******

"I hope you understand. I love you all so much. You will always be my family, but I can't stay here. Not anymore. It's too much." Daine said with tears running down her face.

"Couldn't you just come to Pirate's Swoop?" Alanna said between tears.

"You know I can't." Daine replied. Alanna saw the truth in her eyes and realized it was true, Daine couldn't stay, the loss was too great.

Thayet was extremely shocked.

She understood why Daine wanted to leave, she would want to be as far away as possible also.

"I'm going to leave before the banquet begins. I know you really wanted me to be there, but I don't think I can handle it." Daine said, looking at Alanna.

"Of course. We will see you off." Alanna said. We meaning her and Onua.

Daine had decided to live in Dunlath with Maura. She missed the young girl and hadn't seen her since she and Numair helped the Pack.

She would be close to the Pack and she would be of much help there.

The banquet was in three days. When Numair would be teaching, she would go and collect her belongings that she wouldn't be able to part with. She would leave a few hours before the banquet started. For now though, she would stay with Onua in her chambers. She didn't plan on leaving the room until it was time to leave. If she could help it.
