Learning to Trust
A/N Here's chapter three.
"Will they be okay?" Leah asked worried.
"Yes they'll be okay.
They're exhausted from the power surge earlier." Izz answered her.
"Power surge?
What power surge?" she told herself.
"On Halloween Arian magic is increased a lot.
Yashu took this to mind and used it against Morrick.
He used the fact that he wants to be with his mother." He told her.
Izz saw fear in Elisa's eyes.
She knew how it hurt Morrick to hear about his mother.
"I never knew he had a Mom.
What happened to her?" David asked him.
"Her name was Yana.
She was a Nymmphead, a Psammead in a nymph's body.
She cared for Morrick but….. his real father was evil." Izz told him.
"Now I know why Morrick is so worried about trying to heal Izz.
Because of his mother, Morrick feels afraid of losing him." He thought as he saw Morrick come in.
"Good morning.
How're you?" he asked him.
"I-I'm okay.
I….. heard you guys talking." He whispered softly.
"I'm sorry you heard that but they were curious." he said to him.
Leah watched him run out of the room.
"I knew he'd be upset hearing us talk.
He still hasn't forgotten what happened to his mother." Elisa told them.
"Why?
What happened to her?" Leah asked them.
"Only Morrick knows and he hasn't even told me." Izz replied weakly.
David saw her leave.
"What happened to him?
Maybe I can get him to talk." she thought as she found Morrick curled up in a ball in the living room.
He was shivering in fear.
"Morrick you okay?
You don't look so great.
Your father was worried about you.
Are you sure you don't wanna talk about it?" she told him.
Morrick looked at her before talking.
"O-Okay I'll tell you.
I was sent into the Forest of Love to train with my mother.
She was about to teach me when Yashu showed up and started attacking her.
I wanted to stop her..... but I froze.
I wished I could've done something.
She survived but became a mortal.
Since coming here, I've been trying to find her but no luck." he explained with tears running down his face.
"It'll be okay.
You're part of a family.
I know you'll find her." she told him softly.
He nodded as he walked out of there.
He was confused, scared.
Yashu smiled seeing that.....
