"What's the day of eternal darkness?" Buddy asked.
"It's when Blood Tie becomes unstoppable" Phoenix replied.
Lilly gulped.
"You see many years ago before my spirit was cursed into this body I saved Half Pint's life from Blood Tie" Phoenix explained.
"That would explain why you two are close" Lilly said.
"That night both of us experienced how powerful Blood Tie was" Phoenix said.
"If Blood Tie comes here there's going to be a war" Phoenix finished.
"I don't like the sound of that" Balthazar whispered.
He and Tina had heard the whole thing from behind Skipping rope bridge.
"What do we do?" Tina asked.
"I don't know" Balthazar replied.
"We have to do something" Tina said.
"I agree after all we are the only ones of our generation who will not fight" Balthazar said.
"But I have been told only Phoenix and Half Pint fight" Tina said.
"And both Network and Snowy never fight nobody in our family or Dream Street fights" Tina added.
"Ok I stand corrected" Balthazar said.
"It's ok we all make mistakes" Tina said.
"There must be something to do without fighting" Balthazar said annoyed.
"Come on lets think somewhere else" Tina said she didn't want to hear about fighting and wars.
"Ok lets go" Balthazar agreed and went off.
Half Pint slowly got back up.
"Hey you ok?" Phoenix asked.
"No" Half Pint replied.
"What do we do?" Phoenix asked.
"You know what we have to do" Half Pint replied.
"No I'm not going through that again" Phoenix said upset.
"Phoenix you know you have to" Half Pint said.
"I don't and you can't make me!!" Phoenix said and ran off.
"What was that about?" Lilly asked.
Half Pint sighed.
"Every time the final battle comes we all ways lose someone that is closest to our hearts" he explained.
Lilly knew it was the wolf talking and not Half Pint.
"It never gets easier for the both of us even though I know who I will lose" Half Pint said.
"Who is it?" Lilly asked.
"You wouldn't understand" Half Pint said.
"Please" Lily begged.
"Ow what happened?" Half Pint asked turning back into himself.
Lilly sighed.
"You passed out" Lilly explained.
Half Pint looked up at the sky.
"I don't want to fight" he said.
Lilly wanted to say you don't have to but knew she couldn't.
"Come on lets go back Arrow will be getting worried" Lilly said.
Half Pint nodded and followed Lilly back.
When the two were gone Buddy gave Teck a worried glance.
"I really really really don't like the sound of that" Buddy said.
"Neither do I Buddy" Teck agreed.
Later that day Tina found Phoenix working Skydance hard.
Tina waited patiently like she all ways did.
However twenty minutes later Phoenix was still making Skydance work hard and Tina was getting concerned.
"Phoenix stop she's had enough" Tina called.
Phoenix stopped Skydace and fell to the floor.
"DAD!!" Tina screamed running for help.
Tina ran to the Depot and explained what happened.
"Tina Do-right Magic what are you shouting about?" Daisy asked coming over after Tina had explained what happened.
"Phoenix collapsed again" Buddy explained.
"That's the third time this week" Daisy said worried.
"Tina go and play we'll sort this out" Buddy said.
Tina sighed and went off.
"I'm not a kid" she muttered.
"Hey" Balthazar said seeing Tina.
"Hey" Tina said glumly.
"What's up?" Balthazar asked.
"Phoenix was exercising Skydance one of her horses, but she collapsed, I told dad and he told me to go and play and that he and mum would sort it out" Tina sighed.
Balthazar gave Tina a sympathetic smile.
"It looks as if both of us haven't had a good afternoon" he said.
"What do you mean?" Tina asked.
Just as she finished speaking Ivy came past giving Balthazar an evil do something to my love and I will hurt you look.
"Oh" Tina said.
"I never should of said where I was from" Balthazar said looking down.
"Hey you didn't know" Tina said nudging him affectionately.
Balthazar smiled but inside he was worried about the day ahead.
