In Rythian's Mind...
"Huh, where am I...?" I thought, as I looked around cautiously, holding my head "and how am I here. Where ever here is"
I stood up and looked around again, I appeared to be in a forest. I looked up to the sky.
"Notch damnit" I muttered angrily to myself.
I was in the Twilight Forest. Of all the places to be, it had to be the one place my magic doesn't work. Well, all but one magic...
No! I will not use my Ender Magic!
But... wandering aimlessly through the one place that basically rips a part of me away, is quite sickening.
"I have to find the portal out, or build one, but that would require water, a diamond and some flowers." I thought again, searching my brain for all the information I knew about this horrid place.
Flowers- easy, Diamonds- fine, but water was going to be a problem.
Hours upon hours of wandering and I had only managed to find the flowers needed. I knew that I had to find an underground maze for diamonds. Minitors and other creatures would make it hard, considering I had no weapons or Magic to defend myself, but I would manage.
Back to the Overworld...
"So how do we do this exactly?" Xephos asked.
"I guess like what Rythian did, I remember seeing some things he did while I was-" Lalna stopped speaking and looked at the ground, ashamed.
"While Livid was doing stuff to Rythian" Zoeya finished, Lalna looked up and smiled his thanks.
"So I think you just have to focus on Rythian's spirit and try and connect" Lalna explained like it was the easiest thing in the world.
"Ok, I'll try... I guess..." Xephos looked at the scientist and mushroom girl apprehensively.
"We has better leave the room, you need to concentrate" Zoeya said gesturing for Lalna to follow her.
"Oh yes we probably should. Good luck Xeph"
"I'll need it" the spaceman smiled for a moment as they left the room.
"Alright Rythain I hope this works" taking a deep breath in, he shut his eyes and focused.
Back to the Twilight...
Finally, I found a dungeon, and thankfully there was a chest room right by the entrance AND there was a diamond. What luck?!
Now for the hard part... Water.
I found a stream and dug out a two metre by two metre pit directly next to it, planting the flowers around the edge.
I broke a large leaf off a nearby tree and scooped up as much water as I could, cursing when it spilt and touched my skin. I did this process a few times to fill the hole enough.
Pouring the last of the water in the hole, I threw the diamond in. There was a bright flash of light and the portal appeared.
"Well, here goes nothing" I jumped in, shutting my eyes.
Overworld...
As Xephos concentrated his eyes began to glow bright Indigo through his eye lids, until finally they shot open. He had made the connection.
Bright white light surrounded Rythian and Xephos, pulling them next to each other. Once close the light dimmed and they could see.
"Xephos?!" The Mage choked in disbelief.
"Rythian! Oh thank Notch, you seem fine!" The spaceman cheered, wincing at a sharp pain in his temple.
"Seem fine? Why would I not be fine?"
"Rythian, you're in a coma and you're dying. I mean we did just have to restart your heart!"
"What! But how?" Rythian asked getting extremely scared.
"After you saved Lalna, you didn't wake and-"
"Xephos why are your eyes Indigo?"
"Huh? Oh that, that was all you my friend, all you. But if it weren't for you, Livid would still be here and I wouldn't have been able to contact you"
After Xephos had let Rythian think, he spoke again, "Come on we need to wake you up. Zoeya needs you, she completely freaked when you stopped breathing. Take my hand"
Rythian nodded and floated forwards, taking the spacemans hand. When they touched, another blinding flash of light appeared, sucking them back into reality.
Xephos' eyes flickered back to blue and he groaned in exhaustion, swaying and landing with a thud on the wooded floor. He heard the door open while he lay dazed. He felt himself being lifted into a chair and a glass of water pushed into his shaky hands. He took slow, shaky sips and became aware of sticky warmth beneath his nose. He raised a finger and dabbed the spot, his nose was bleeding. He'd heard that happens when you overwork your brain.
After a few minutes his senses returned completely and he stood, walking over to the mages side.
"He didn't know he was in a coma..." He mumbled sadly.
"What?" Lalna asked moving closer to the spaceman.
Suddenly, the tattoo like mark on the mages jaw began to glow, causing both Lalna and Xephos to move back. The area around the mark began to turn black, with branches of it through Rythian's veins. Once one of these 'branches' hit Rythian's eye, the mages eyes shot open and began slowly turning sickly purple, from their usual soft sky blue, almost lavender eyes.
Rythian gasped and sat bolt upright looking around frantically.
"Rythian!" Zoeya squealed running over and hugging him.
"Zoeya? "He choked dryly.
"Yes it's me! I'm so glad you're ok" she said, muffled by his chest, a tear rolling down her cheek.
"I'm not ok, I'm sorry Zoeya"
"Bu-but you are ok! You're awake!" She pulled away and large tears began to rim her eyes.
Rythian shook his head and pointed to his eye, one was completely purple now, while the other was still fighting.
"What's wrong with your eyes? I don't mind if they're purple! As long as you're ok!" she was crying now.
"Zoeya, soon it won't be me. My powers have gone unused so long the Queen finally had a chance to get to me... I'm sorry Zoeya, it's too late... It's too late..."
"No, no, no, no, NO! It's not too late! I just got you back! And you're Rythian, my Rythian! You're not gone, you're not gone..." She cried and left the mages side, holding her face with tear soaked hands.
"Rythian, I just wanted to say-"
"There's no need Lalna, I owe you my life. Just please take care of Zoeya and Teep"
"I will" the scientist replied solemnly.
Rythian froze, his eye was almost completely purple, and then it was. More veins if black shot through his body. His mouth ripped and tore until the great moor was from ear to ear. His fingertips grew long and pointed, forming daggers.
"Rythian is dead" it spoke after a moment.
"Oh Rythian, I'm sorry" Xephos cried, "I should've gotten to you sooner!"
"It's ok"
"I couldn't save you"
"You can't save everyone"
"And now you're gone"
"I'm still here" it grinned with one simple motion and three body's fell motionless to the floor.
"I'm still here my friends" smiling its enlarged smile it teleported away. "Still here..."
