Together As One
Ch 6
Leah noticed Carley hadn't shown up at Home room
She knew she was worried about Izz especially finding that note.
Dear Partner
I've decided to run away. With the Flame of the Equinix inside me, I'm too dangerous to be with you.
I couldn't bear hurting you more like yesterday.
Just forget we were friends.
I'll never forget you.
Izz.
It read.
Before leaving for school, she saw Jen talking to Carley.
"I wonder what he gave her that she ditched. She's out there looking for Izz." She thought as she headed to the library.
Carley heard crying in her mind as she entered the park.
It was Izz. He was hiding in the sand pit.
"Izz it's okay. I'm not mad at you for running away.
I… just want to help you." She told him.
He then heard the voice of the Flame in his head but tried to ignore it.
"Carley stay away from me!" he yelled.
Jen then showed up.
"There's a way we can help him. It's by giving him a seal of control so he can have control over the flame but it requires blood to do it, yours since you're friends." He explained to her.
She then used his dagger to make a wound in her hand and used the blood from it to draw a kanji seal on him that would help.
Jen was holding Izz still.
"This might hurt a little." He told him.
"It'll be worth it if I can be with my friends." Izz replied as Jen recited the spell.
The blood seal glowed with magic and Izz felt pain in him but got up after a few minutes.
He was in his Flame form but was upset.
It was because of Carley's leg.
Leah then saw Carley show up with Izz in her arms.
"Where were you? Where was he?" she asked her.
"He was at the park. The voice of the Flame was driving him nuts. I had to put a magical seal on him but he needs to get adjusted to it, okay?" Carley answered as they walked home.
That night Izz felt weird. He was sleep walking and causing damage to the living room.
Leah was nervous as he was in his Flame form.
"Izz you okay? Why aren't you answering me?" she asked him but he didn't answer.
She saw tears cine from his eyes as she woke him up. He then ran off to Aria.
This worried Leah.
She then saw Krya ahow up. She cackled at the damage.
"What did you do to him?" she asked angrily. "He's following his heart and going to to find his parents." she answered as she attacked Leah.
Carley then attacked Krya. She saw her fly off.
"Where's Izz?" she asked her. "I don't know. He was sleep walking until I woke him up and he took off to Aria." Leah answered her.
In Aria Izz was in the Caves of Misery. He'd a feeling they were here. He saw a weird book and tablet.
He then read it. It was a spell to bring those back to life.
He recited it hoping his parents would come back but after the magic faded, they weren't there.
"Why can't I do this? I should be strong enough to do this!" he said with tears in his eyes breaking down.
"Maybe you're not meant to do it on your own. Together we're strong." Carley said as he hugged her.
He then left with her but was depressed.
He felt like his inner strength had gone and might not come back...
