Chapter 12: Love is crazy

Dawn tried to catch her breath. They finally stopped running.
''I really should jog, when I got the chance.'' Chiro laughed.
''We're not there yet. I've stopped, cause I need to cover your eyes.'' Dawn rolled eyes and groaned.
''If I hate anything more than long running, than this is it; not to see.''
''Trust me.''
''Oh, I had it. Everyone is telling me to relax or to trust. I'm really getting nuts!'' she even turned around. Chiro was quickly in front of her. He looked her with his sapphire blue eyes. She saw only truth there…mean while her eyes were golden chocolate, but the shine from gold was gone and the tempting chocolate, wasn't tempted anymore. And her spark…lost in her thoughts. Still, how com that Chiro saw it in her mind?
''Please. Don't run away. Trust me.'' He whispered. Dawn sighed and again, she rolled her eyes.
''Fine.'' Chiro covered her eyes with white scarf, which was a gift from Nova. She gave it to him, when he and Jinmay broke up. It supposes to mean new hope. Dawn didn't know where are they going, but she could feel the ground, which was full of life and birds which sang to them…
''This is the most secret place, and hard to find too. Still, they say that those, which find it, can leave their burdens and enjoy. It's also one of most beautiful nes. After my broke up, I have found it. It helped me to forget old things and prepared me on new ones. I want same for you.'' He told her and then took the scarf off. Dawn was speechless at the beauty she saw…and in her spirit…something moved and there were no worries anymore.
''It's…perfect.''
''Like you, still how can I compare something so alive with nature?'' he looked to her eyes. For first time, she knew what true love is. And this wasn't a crush like on Earth. It was THE LOVE. Their lips started to approach and they…

''Antauri to Chiro and Dawn. Com in!'' Chiro rolled his eyes and answered on the call.

''Chiro here. What's…''
''Mandarin is back…only this time with a message…Dawn has to say her answer herself!''
''We're on our way! Chiro out.'' Magic of place disappeared and doubts came back. There were still some marks of peace; still it wasn't same for her.
''Is like this only the first time?''
''No. It's same each time…till someone interrupts. Until now, no one did.''
''We've got to go.'' She whispered and walks few steps…
''Umm…where to?'' Chiro smiled. Dawn was funny even in most serious problems. He took her hand and scarp and led her out, and she knew they went on other way, then before. They went to South exit from city. Mandarin was standing before them. Of course there were some … monsters from black liquid. Formless, still one of them was a bit bigger and higher.

''Ah, the heir. I see you've decided to come after all…still I'm not here for a chat. Master wants to know the answer. What it shall be? You're coming free will or''

''There is no or. I'm'' she looked to Chiro. If she's joust the heir, why then he took her to that place? Answer was simple. He loved her, not her powers.
''Not coming. And he can try with his illusions, they're not going to convince me!'' She was in battle position.

''So be it. Then the hard way will be done.'' Mandarin said and commanded formless to step aside. The bigger one-step out, but he was different. The black liquid was falling from him and back in him…like a slimly monster. It started to take a form…it became Chiro.

''What!'' Chiro was surprised.
''Didn't you destroyed the cloning device?''
''I did Sprx! I did, how could he…''
''With destroying you gave a peace of your power.'' Dawn whispered.
''And the men, which was effected by same thing than flytor…our DNK! He's got all our DNK!'' Gibson concluded.
''And I thought that loosing my fur was the biggest problem.'' Tried Sprx.

''Ultimate Formless attack!'' ordered Mandarin.

Chiro's doubler attacked Dawn, lost his form of Chiro and behind him Formless attacked too. Mandarin checked his skeleton armor (he was normal, similar to what he used to be, still his tail was blue and his orange color was a bit pale) and attacked Antauri.

Everyone tried to get to Dawn, still Formless were improved with some IQ. They were harder to destroy. And Dawn tried, still like he could absorb her powers!

''Monkey fu!'' Chiro tried to get to Dawn.

''Bum-bum wake up!'' Nova covered him…

''Magno ball blazer!'' Sprx saved her. Nova whispered his sentence

''You saved me! Still we're not even and I don't love you!'' she laughed.

''Monkey mind scream!'' Antauri and Mandarin were in same level, since Antauri was silver.

''Spin shocker!''

'' Razor Chariot!'' Otto covered Gibson and he covered him. They joust tried to make a safe way to Dawn…it was like this was planned like this.

''Spirit shield!'' Dawn yelled as she realize that monster WAS REALLY absorbing her powers…and it started absorbed her…something echo in her mind…It was Lady Azami.
''Now's really not the time for this…'' she mumbled, still LA say something to her.
'' Wolf without a pack is either a survivor or a brute. But that are wolfs. A person, who cannot trust dies or it, starts to trust. What are you going to do?''
Dawn knew that she's right. She called her inner flame; still it only speeded up the monster to swallow her hands into herself.
''Help!'' she yelled to them, Chiro could came in a second, still in a second she'll be in that liquid. Voices flashed her memories.
''We can understand you. I know what you mean. Go girl! R-E-L-A-X! Go on! Start trusting us! Trust me! Trust…trust…''

She was almost in monster when she got it. Her inner flame started to glow brighter, it became bigger and hotter and she transformed! She was all in white, even a lock of hair. And her eyes were same again. Monster couldn't absorb so much power…even Mandarin looked at her!

''Formless, retreat! You may won this battle heir, still next time you'll be under my master will!''
And then the monster melted into nothing and one whisper came from Dawn. Like she talked from past. She was not touching the floor.

'' Trusted pluck'' and she started to transmit waves of energy. Only Hyper forces feel power without being hurt. Rest was crushing into self and disappearing…all formless was destroyed and Mandarin lost his tail. His ship left, and Dawn changed back, only the pair of with hair stayed. She had to kneel, or she would past out. Chiro was quickly close her and whispering her.

''You did it. You won. ''

And before she really past out she heard two voices. Lady Azami whisper her ''It' s time for the letters, you're ready for the first step. Phoenix will guide you.''

And Chiro told her:

''Love is crazy, they say. Then so am I. I love you.''

A bit short, but I'm going to be off from 17 to 27, so I need to pack and all those things. I don't own SRMTHFG! Have a nice day, cause I'm posting next chapter after I come home (be careful! I posted a new story under the W.I.T.C.H. theme)! See ya! Hope you liked this chapter! ;)
