" Reiln! What happened!" Ellie cried.
Reiln slowly pulled her forward, to see what was in the middle of the circle.
The priests and clerics were all holding hands and a green light surrounded them. The old couple was in their embrace. But the healing didn't seem to be doing anything.
"Poison." Reiln muttered. "The healing's not going to work."
But Ellie was persistent. " It will work! It has to!" She screamed. Before rushing to the clerics, healing as well as she could. But it was true, not matter how they healed, the used-to-be jolly old Uncle Rick and Aunt Rachel still remained in their hopeless state. Finally, their pulses stopped.
Ellie couldn't belive it. The third time in her life. She lost the people most important to her.
First, were her parents.
Second, it was Terra.
Third, people who erased her orphan status but put it back again, Uncle Rick and Aunt Rachel.
" Reiln! You're kidding me!" She sobbed, tight in Reiln's arms.
She felt helpless, lost, useless. Her sadness was so overwhelming that she thought she might explode.
She glanced around at the massive bodies of the sickening monsters. Anger raging within her.
" Reiln, I need you to train me. Please, I want revenge."
Reiln looked sideways at her. The girl whom his now dead father was warning might not want to kill anything, now wanted revenge. She wanted something dead.
