I believe I owe you all another chapter!
Since the story is beginning to lose feedback, I'm not as motivated to edit my already written stories and post them. So please after you read them, leave a review, comment, I'm open to new ideas.
As usual, enjoy!
Tecna blinks once more to find Timmy grabbing the vine and swinging in her direction. She holds out her arm and holds tightly to his outstretched wrist. Pulling with all his might, he manages to pull her out of the quicksand to safety on dry land. Tecna stumbles but quickly regains her composure.
"You okay Tec?" Timmy asks
"Yeah I'm fine" she shrugs and continues down the path not even glancing at him.
"How dare he resort to logic rather than to my well being? How dare he?!" Tecna thinks to herself brushing sand off of her clothes. Timmy follows, his head bent down slightly.
Bloom and Sky
"What a beautiful sight!" Bloom points to the horizon at the setting sun
"It is nice is'nt it?" Sky outs his arm around her shoulders
"Too nice to be dangerous" Bloom sighs
"Yes, but we should keep moving. We need to get home by nightfall. It's a bad idea to camp around here." Sky takes her hand and leads her away continuing down a trail. The trees are covered with multicolored buds not yet ready to bloom. Bushes are a mix of green, pink, and blue. Ripe fruits hang from low branches. Glowing butterflies circle around glittering roses and daisies. Bloom was right, the view was to magnificent to resist. But they had to, if they wanted to save their friend.
"Wait, check this out!" Bloom walks up to a glittering bush and picks a Newly bloomed pink rose. She sniffs it
"Mmm, marvelous!" Bloom eyes change from blue to a dark violet, putting her into a deep trance.
"Smell this Sky" Bloom turns around and holds the flower up to him. He notices the change in her eye color
"Is something wrong with your eyes?" Sky moves the flower and looks into Blooms violet eyes
"Of course not, why would you think that? Sniff" Bloom holds up the rose again
"Bloom?" Sky notices her funny actions
"Yes?" she stares at her flower
"You are acting very- different" Sky takes a single step back
"No I'm not" she shakes her head and giggles
"Yes you are" he takes another step
"No, I'm not!" she lowers the rose and takes a step towards
"It's the flower isn't it?" Sky continues backing up
"Its nothing because I am not acting funny!" her voice raises
"Please Bloom give me that rose" Sky holds out his hand only for her to swat it away
"This is my flower, go get your own" she growls
"Than can you at least come with me?" Sky stops
"I think I'd rather stay here, it's so quiet, peaceful" Bloom smiles at looks around
"But Bloom, what about Flora" he asks
"Who?" she gives him a questionable look
"I-" hes speechless
"Stay with me Sky" she takes his hand
"I'd rather not" Sky shakes his head
"Please? All you have to do is smell the flowers" she gestures to their floral surroundings
"You don't know what your talking about, please, we need to save Flora. She's in danger." Sky slowly reaches down. His arm inches away from Blooms rose
"But, I like it here" she looks at him
"I know, but it's too dangerous. For both you, and your friends." he can feels the petals of the rose on his fingertips
"But-" she starts when Sky grabs the flower from her hands and throws it as far away as he can.
"My flower!" she starts after it when Sky wraps her in his arms and holds her back
"No let me go!" she struggles with kicks and elbows
"I can't let you!" he holds onto her as tightly as he could. Her struggling becomes weaker as time goes by until the violet fades from her eyes. Leaving only bright blue. She freezes and looks around
"Ok?" Sky whispers in her ear. She holds onto his arms that are around her waist
"Yeah, I think so" she gasps out of breath. He slowly releases her letting her turn around to face him
"Sorry" she mumbles
"I know, it's fine" Sky strokes her cheek. She lifts her head to touch her lips to his. When they separate, she looks past him
"Oh no!" she points to the quickly setting sun
"We need to find that flower!" she gasps grabbing Sky's hand and running down the path. They both block out any attempt to stop and smell the flowers, even though such actions are meant to help one gain ease.
Stella and Brandon
"I love it here!" Stella dances around the glowing trees
"Sure is" Brandon follows
"What inspiration! I could use these for new designs!" she yelps in excitement
"It's just gorgeous!" Stella sighs
"You're gorgeous" Brandon whispers to himself
"Yes she is" comes a mysterious yet very familiar voice
"Who?" Brandon scans his surroundings
"Stella, that's who we're talking about right?" the voice comes again
"Who are you?" Brandon pulls out his phanto
"That doesn't matter. What does matter is who you are" the voice replies
"Who I am?" Brandon looks up
"Yeah, compared to Stella"
"What about me compared to Stella?" Brandon looks at his girlfriend twirling around the flowers
"Yeah, I mean, think about it. She is a princess, heir to the throne of Solaria. What are you? A commoner from Eraklyon" the voice says
"Why does that matter?" Brandon questions
"Well, you are also Sky's squire, sworn to protect him at all costs. And if you are stuck on Eraklyon protecting him all the time, do you think you will have any time for her when it's time for her to take the throne?" the voice continues
"Uhm-" Brandon stares into space
"And what about when it's time for her to choose a husband? I'm sure the royal family wants they're only heir to marry royalty don't you think?"
"I'm sure they'll be happy as long as Stella is happy" Brandon mumbles
"Right. Can't you see Brandon? There are hundreds of flaws in your relationship!" the voice gets on Brandons nerves
"Who are you?! To be saying those things?!" Brandon spins around
"Oh buddy c'mon! I'm you! And man you really have some thinking to do!" the voice fades leaving Brandon speechless
"Me?" he looks up at Stella who has continued farther down a newly lit path
"Brandon! A new path! Let's go!" she skips forward laughing and smiling
"Ok" he follows her thinking, what was that? What if the he was right? What if Stella deserves more than me? What do I have to offer her? Aww man what am I doing? Stella deserves so much more than me, what am I thinking?
