"Finally we're here" Rosa states as the gothic like castle appears before them as they descend from the clouds.
Right away they see the rainbow like cracks in the outer barrier, Rosa quickly spots the hole her son had made.
"There" she says with a point.
"That's a level 10 sub-dimension barrier" Micheal points out. "There's not way Alistair could have."
"No he couldn't, but with Holly anything is possible." Rosa states as a sinking feels washes over her. "Lets get down there, if there's one sub-dimension there's more."
—
Maria hisses at me as she backs away, spire in hand.
"How the hell did you do that! You're a baby mage!"
I shrug
"Something about wanting it more then life, and you piss me off!" I snap.
"The stories are truth then, your powers should be destroyed!" she snaps with a thrust of her arm.
Shit, I don't have time to move, or dodge. I close my eyes and throw my arms up as metal on metal clans out.
"Really Holly, you shatter about five interlocking dimension and you almost get skewered. Very smooth sis."
At hearing Alistair's voice I snap open my eyes. He's back on to me, there's blood scatter on his arms, his clothes are ripped and his hair looks to be missing chunks. I don'r care because he's alive and I didn't get empaled.
"I'll let that slid because I've never been so happy to have you scold me" I said.
"Where's Hollybella?" he asks not looking back at me.
"Safe" I say hoping that when I shattered everything Andrew took her and ran. "Where's the guy who attacked you?"
"I don't know, he vanished when the walls shattered." He answers "Keep your guard up, I'll deal with Maria, you untie Hojo."
I don't get time to answer before he shifts away, in a blink he's in front of Maria. He swings at her with a sword I didn't notice he had. Quickly she jumps back making Alistair follow. I tilt my head because I swear I just heard her shout someone's name. I push it out of my mind as I turn to Hojo only for a gush of wind to push, making me stagger. Somethings tells me to look up, as I do panic and fear grips me. I set my eyes on who I believe is Kimura, he looks different. His skin is darker, his black hair choppy but long, pull together at the base of his neck. His ears are pointed and he's dress like the royal he is. Black chest armour, with a red sash around his waist tied off, with what looks to be a gold buckle like crest. In his hands are two short swords.
In the distance I hear Maria shout at him to kill Hojo. My heart jumps as Kimura glances down at me before flickering away.
My brain shuts off. I run.
—
Deep in the castle like house, a team of guns, heavy boots and radios, skillfully make their way to the roof top. Somehow they had been set free. They entered the house two days ago only to be lost in a sea of mazes and false surrounding. But just minutes ago, it all shattered in sea of electrum dust. The assult team was overjoyed that they finally made it back to the main house, back on track, and hopping that they weren't too late.
It's wasn't very often that they could take a vampire alive.
—
I skid in front of Hojo and throw out my arms just as Kimura's blade drives into my stomach. The world goes dark as the pain hits, making me I realize what I've done. Numbing pain burns through me making my vision go dark. Behind me I hear Hojo scream out a muffled swear. Somewhere I hear Alistair shout name, follow with the struggled sounds of him trying to get away, trying to get to me. I suck in a fiery, broken breath and try to force away the black spots and static that's pulsing through my head.
Slowly, my vision stars to clear. I lock eyes with the towering Kimura's. His crystal browns are shocked and his mouth open, like he himself doesn't know what the hell just happened.
I smile "It's okay, I don't break that easy"
"I'm.." he struggles as Maria screams more commands at him.
He shakes his head as he hands starts to shake making the blade move. I cringe.
Think happy thoughts Holly, don't think about the pain.
"What's you're full name?" I ask hoping I can break his chains like I did for Andrew.
Kimura snaps his eyes open at me in question, but he answers through the pain of his bounds. "Kimura Tal Asterail, crowned prince of the seventh fay kingdom Asterail."
—
Kurama lands in the misty white space. Lucy, Rosa, and Micheal dropped beside him. It was cold, and he could smell fresh blood in the air, her blood. Range and panic fill him as he turns to Rosa. She nods at him as her eyes turn blue. With a simple whisper of magic the mist vanishes in a wild wind, and in a bust of purple everything clears.
Kurama's eyes finds Holly, and his blood runs cold at seeing her her implied on the end of a fay princes blade. She was in front of Hojo, protecting him. Rage spiked and he moved before he, or anyone, could stop him.
—
I placed both my hands on Kimura arm pulling at my magic. I cringe, the movement jiggled the embedded sword. Getting stabbed is noting like how they show it on TV, it burns, and every single movement from Kimura or I, makes it hurt like hell. If I didn't have magic, there would probably be no way in hell I'd still be standing right now, or alive. I suck in a broken breath as Kurama's sent fills me, great he's found me. I have to move fast before he rips Kimura's head off.
I meet Kimura's sorry broken eyes and say "Royal prince Kimura Tal Asterail I void your contact!"
—
Kimura jerks back as warm power fills him, shocks him. Electrum magic digs into his skin, grabbing onto his bounds and shatter them in seconds. Blinding light explodes from his body causing the rushing Kurama to stumble and shield his eyes.
Rosa, senescing the power throws up a shield as the power hit them.
"Holly my god" she said realizing what her daughter has done.
In seconds the light stops, leaving Kurama temporary blind and Maria howling in pain. Alistair kicks her aside and rushes to his sisters side. Kimura stumbles as the power leaves him, frees him. But he doesn't have time to willow in victory as he watches Holly start to drop. His sword still deep in her stomach. He dives for her, catches her and slowly lowers her to the floor.
"No, no" He whispers pulling her into his lap.
"Don't worry" he hushes placing his hand on the hilt of the sword "I can help" he adds while placing his free hand on her stomach.
Behind him he sense Alistair trying to get to them, but Maria wasn't letting that happen. He can also feel Kurama's demonic energy pushing towards him. Not waiting to see if the demon won't kill him. Kimura pours all his remaining magic into Holly, to heal her. As his magic works and stitches, he slowly pulls the sword out. In seconds it's over, the sword is out, and Holly is breathing softly. Carefully Kimura places Holly on the floor, while pushing to gripping darkness away. Sucking in a broken breath warning bells shoot through him, quickly he jumps back just missing Kurama's deadly demonic whip.
He didn't have to look to know who attacked him.
"Stay away from her" Kurama snaps appearing before him.
"She's okay" Kimura said and slowly stands.
"Okay, you'r holding a bloodily sword covered in her blood!" Kurama snaps in rage.
"I healed her, I didn't mean, it wasn't.."
"I don't care what royal family you come from, I am going to kill you fay prince."
—
Kurama's sent overpowers me, I snap my eyes open and I push myself up, easily. Well that's confusing. I look down at my stomach and see that one, theres no sword sticking out of it and two, I'm not bleeding to death. Well, that's a bonus. To make sure I'm not losing it, I unzip my vest and pull it off, ah yes, lots of blood on my not so white T-shirt but, no wound to speak of. I hear muffle yells and remember Hojo's still tied up. I shift to stand but my attention gets captured by Kurama's damn sent. I turn my head to see him with Kimura wrapped tightly in his rose whip.
Well fuck.
First things first. Using all my willpower, and then some, I block out Kurama's sent, his eyes, his.. I stop, gritting my teeth, focus Holly, focus. I stand turning to Hojo. I step towards him and pull down the gage.
"Sorry about that" I say.
"Holly what the hell is wrong with you?" He snaps,
I start uniting his arms ignoring him.
"A thank you would be nice" I say, as his arms give way.
I quickly drop the ropes because they're burning my hands "What the hell did she tie you up with?"
"I'm not sure, but it bounded my powers." He said, still without the thank you.
"Can you stop Kurama from killing Kimura, it's want' his fault" I point behind me rubbing my hands.
What the hell did she do, I take a quick look at Hojo's writs, they're red, bleeding and raw.
"Yeah" he says reaching for me, but stops. "Thanks" he whispers before shifting away.
"Holly!" I hear and spin around.
Lucy crushes me in a bone snapping hug.
"Why did you leave us behind" she stresses pulling back, letting me see that mother and Micheal are behind her.
Hollybella and Andrew are behind them. Great, I told him to run.
Annoyance cuts through me, really, I shake that off, there's isn't time.
I grab Lucy shoulders and say "Listen you need to leave."
She blinks "Why?"
"Because."
"LUCY!" Maria screams sending a power push of energy at us.
Mother throws up her arms quickly casting a blocking the spell.
"That's way" I snap pushing her towards Micheal. "Get her out of here"
"No, tell me way" Lucy snaps back.
"There's no time, Micheal just get her out of here, far away."
"Jut calm down Holly, we're all here now. Maria maybe powerful but we have numbers." Mothers says making me wish they would have stayed in the barrier. "And Alistair has it under-control" she adds.
"You don't" I stop as Maria appears above us in a rush of wind, shit.
"You where saying?'
"Perfect!" Maria shouts as I spin around.
Alistair's on the ground, Hojo's attending to him. Kimura is also down, alive? I don't know. Kurama is, warm arms spin me around pinning me to his chest. Should have saw that coming.
"We're leaving" he whispers in my ear.
I struggl to get a hold of my thoughts as Maria throws her hands down, power shoots out. Everything happens fast as Kurama jumps back taking me with him. Mother makers her sword appear and attacks while Micheal grabs Lucy before jumping away. I watch as mom takes a swing, Maria throws up her hands sending mom back. Is it me or is that bitch getting stronger?
Mom stops short of Hollybella and Andrew, she looks pissed.
I can't be trapped like this, I can't be the only one that's safe.
"Let me go" I snap at Kurama.
"No"
"Listen" I cry with a struggle."Hojo isn't the right one, Lucy is, she needs Lucy! You have to get her out of here!" I add.
"What do you mean? I though this was all about.." he stops as Maria shoots out another energy blast.
I grab onto Kurama's arm and take a breath and say "I know you can't willingly put me in danger because of the contract, so I'm sorry about this"
Before he can answer I push my power into him "Yohko Kurama, Shuichi Minamino I void you contract!"
He pushes me away as my power destroys his contract. I turn away as that blinding light takes over. Kurama's going to be weak and dazed for a few minutes, so I take this chance to run for Lucy. I run hard and end up knocking her to the ground. We skid as the light vanishes in a single push of wind. My head's dizzy, I don't think I can do that again anytime soon. I push that away and pull Lucy to her feet. I will get her out of here myself if I have to, there is no way this will end the way Maria wants; I will die first. I take Lucy's hand in mine and run.
"Stop, Holly, stopt!" Lucy screams.
I ignore her and drag her through the broken sub-dimensional walls, it's rainbow edges showing us the way.
"No" I snap while trying to figure out how to get her the hell out of here.
"We have to go back!" she yells planing her feet.
I jerk forward cause my hand to rip from hers.
I spin on my heal reaching for her "No! I need to get you out of here, mom can handle Maria, but you need to leave, now!"
"Not until you tell me why!" She yells pulling back.
This causes Maria to realized where we are. I give a frustrating cry as Maria shifts away from mom and Micheal. I don't have time for this, I need to get her out I need to get out of this, a thought hits me, something I should have done a while ago. I gather energy in my hands and want, need myself to created a spell to shatter everything and bring us back to the real world. I don't have much magic let, but if I can pull some form around me I might be able do this. No, I can do this.
Maria appears before us, I smirk at her and say "Times up bitch!"
I drop to the floor slamming my hands agents it. As soon as my hands make contact the floor cracks like ice. With a violent shake everything shatters like candy glass.
—
The black opps team took there places as they ready themselves to breath the roof top.
—
For a millisecond everything stands still, it's like I'm looking through a frozen blizzard. Time catches up and all the shards simply disappear in one snap of light. Wind, natural wind fills my lungs as the moonlight spills over the now normal flattop roof. I stand in a stagger, I don't have any magic or energy left.
"What have you done!" Maria screams, her heart shattering.
I don't get a change to taunt her because she grabs me by the neck, well shit, I didn't even see her movie. I grab her arm like before, but I don't have the energy to brake it, well fuck, again.
"You monster, you've ruined everything!"
"Let her go!" I hear Lucy scream.
I glance at her and notice that we're surround by family. Great.
"Pick up the sword, break the blood spell and I won't snap her neck!" Maria demands.
"No Lucy, that sword has the rest of her soul locked inside, if you.." Maria stops me with a tight squeeze.
I gage and dig my nails into her and try to pull her arm off of me.
"You can't kill her remember!" I hear Hollybella shout.
"No, but I can disfigure her, torture her" Maria snaps back.
"No you won't" I hear Kurama say in his deep demonic voice.
"Oh demon, even if you cut off my arm, my hand with still rip out her windpipe." She laughs.
"I'll do it!" Lucy shouts.
"No!" I scream out only for Maria to squeeze harder.
A high pitch squeak filled my ears making me shutter, because that was me.
I grab her arm tighter, but I can't do anything. My ears are starting to ring from the lack of oxygen and somewhere I hear and voices screaming and light. Red light burst around me, no not me, Maria. She drops me, I hight the roof top hard as she stumbles back from the sudden power shock. I gasp for air and hold my neck as someone picks me up and pulls me out of Maria's range.
"It's okay honey" I hear mom say. "Just breath"
I nod and let her pull me back from the deforming scene. The red light fads leaving Maria in a black water like dress. Her hair is long, spilling over her shoulders in waves of gold reaching the floor. Her eyes are red, cold and hungry. She tall, close to seven feet and she's ugly. Her lips, red as blood are crooked, her eyes are large but she has no eyes lashes to farm them and her noes, it looks to be melted as if someone poured acid on her. I glance around, Kurama is next to Lucy, who looks to be in a stat of shock.
"Mom" I crackle out. "Lucy's the inheritor of the original mages power, she can seal Maria again."
"She doesn't look willing" Mom answers seeing what I had seen.
"I know, but she has to, or this isn't going to end" I chock out. "Get me to her" I add pushing to stand.
"You're too weak" She protest.
"Then help me" I snap as the sounds of breaking woods fills the roof top.
We spin around to see man dressed in black and draped in guns spill out onto the roof top. They quickly kneel down and point their guns at us.
"What the hell is that?" I snap as Hollybella appears next to me.
"Human's" she whispers hiding behind Rosa.
Maria laughs "Are you kidding me, you called in human reinforcements, how sad of you Rosa Allard."
Maria throws up a hand sending out a massive shock wave, mom throws up a shield. The men behind us aren't so lucky as the get thrown back, skidding on the hard concrete roof top.
"Mom can you distract her" I ask.
"I can, but.."
"Rosa it's okay, trust her" Hollybella said as a thought hits me.
"Where's Andrew?"
"There" she points towards Maria.
I turn in time to see Andrew throw a punch at the vampier. It gets defect off but he throws another and another. I can use this, I tune back to mom.
"Mom, please" I plead.
"Okay" she whispers giving me a kiss before shifting away.
I watch as she appears before Maria sending a stream of deadly fire magic at her.
"Help me, Hollybella?" I ask
"Of course" she says back taking my hand, helping me stand.
We run, well I try to run more like stagger, towards Hojo, Alistair, and Micheal. In seconds we're in front of them and I hit Alistair up side the head.
"What the hell!?" He snaps
"Why didn't you take Lucy and run!" I stress.
"Forgive me for getting beat unconscious after I watched my sister get stabbed!" He snaps out of anger grabbing my shirt "Just look at all the blood on you!"
"Forget that!" I push, hitting hand hands away "we need to get Lucy to use that, whatever power, and seal that vampire bitch, that's trying to kill us!"
"She won't" Hojo cuts in pulling Alistair away from me.
"I'll get her to, I'll spin it somehow," I say with a glance her.
Lucy's on her knees, sword in hand. Kurama is knelt next to her, talking to her, trying to get her to get up and fight.
"How?" Micheal cuts in.
"I don't know, I work better on the fly, but I"m going to need Maria really distracted. Mom and Andrew are doing a good job, but with more attacking the less likely she'll figure out what I'm doing. Hojo can you protect Hollybella?" I rush out.
"Yes" Hojo answers without hesitation.
"Hey I don't need.."
I hold up my hand to cut her off "You don't have magic, and if you haven't notice she likes to take hostages."
I rub my neck, that's going to bruise.
"Fine, but I'm not leaving!" She snaps and takes a hand full of my bloody shirt.
I take my had away from my neck feeling her eyes.
"Okay" I whisper before moving her hand away. "Micheal help mom and Andrew, Alistair can you get me to Lucy? I don't have much energy or magic left." I confess.
Micheal nods and shifts away, I don't look behind me as I feel his power start to run wild.
"Hojo I'm counting on you" He nodes and grabs Hollybella.
Quickly he slings her on his back and runs towards the dying garden for cover. I look at Alistair, who's looking pretty angry. "What?"
"Never-mind, we'll yell about it later" he snaps and taking my hand.
Before I could ask what he means we shift. My stomach drops as we appear in front of Lucy and Kurama. As the air settles I drop to my knees in front of her, I'm dizzy as hell.
"Holly!" Lucy cries.
I hold up my hand more for Kurama then her, just being this close is having a bad effect on my brain. "Kurama I love you but please don't come near me I need to think. You and Alistair go help the others."
"Holly you're trembling" Kurama cuts in making my head spin.
"That's because she's using what little magic she has left not to jump you." Alistair snaps.
I avoid looking at Kurama as he lets out a low growl before saying "Fine, this isn't the place or the time"
"Yes" I say avoiding his gaze.
"Come on fox, Lucy I'll be back" Alistair says with a push of magic.
Kurama follows suit leaving me and Lucy with the sword. I let out a breath and lock my eyes with Lucy's scared browns.
"Lucy listen" I start while moving closer as the battle rages behind me.
"I can't, Kurama told me everything, I just can't kill her." She cries.
I swore, great job Kurama.
"You won't" I lied, the hell if I know what'll happen. "Maria, the real Maria is in there, she's calling for help" I add, again I don't have a clue if that's true, but I'm going on a limb here.
"but.."
"No buts, you have the power to seal the vampire away for good, only you can do it. The sword didn't react to Hojo, just look at it." I say pointing at the now clean, awesome looking sword.
The blood is gone, beautiful vine like marking are engrave down the length of sword, words of magic I can't read glew in gold light, almost blinding me.
"It did that after I broke the spell." She said looking down.
"Lucy, you're a powerful mage, your sealing spells are the strongest I've ever seen."
"You've never seen any others."
"And i'm sure they won't compare"
She laughed, sitting back and laughs making tears spilled down her cheeks "You suck at lying, but I'll try, because of everything you've managed to do today"
We lock eyes as her tears continue to spill.
"I'll be right here." I say.
"I know."
—
"What's the status?" A smooth male askes over the radio.
"She's too powerful, she blew our men back with a single swipe of her hand. We also have another problem sir" One of the fallen black opps men says.
"What kind of problem?" Came over again.
"There seems to be powerful mages here, one of them I'm pretty sure is the circles upcoming war mage head. Also, theres a werewolf, and what I believe, a demon. They're all fighting the vamp." The soldier said.
"I'll be right there."
"Yes Sir"
—
I help Lucy stand as she says "We'll need to get everyone away."
"No worries, Alistair's been listening in" I state pointing to my head.
"Okay, I'm going to have to get close without her seeing." she mumbles as I look around.
Maria hasn't really changed position since she, awoken? If that's what you call it.
"I'll shift us to her back" I say.
"But your magic, you could collapse" Lucy snaps.
"Worth it" I say taking her hand.
She nods knowing I wasn't going to back down. I pull at the last of my magic and picture us behind Maria. In seconds we're there but I didn't shift, I somehow shadowed stepped, much how Kurama flickers and run fast.
"How the hell did I do that?'
"You didn't" Lucy said "I moved us"
I drop her hand "I thought you."
"I can, I know how to defend myself Holly, it's part of the healer training, we're no good if we're dead" She explains squaring off with Maria, sword raised.
I place my hand on her shoulder "I'll tell you something I haven't told the others about Hollybella's rebirth."
She looks back at me.
"When I released the spell all I was thinking about was how sad it was that Hollybella killed herself. I didn't what mom to carry that darkness anymore . So I split my soul so Hollybella could have a second chance. I didn't create a medical, I simply brought her out of the void she was trapped in. Lucy if you want Maria, the real Maria back you're going to have to be willing to give something up."
"The reason you can tell where she is?"
I slew my eyes away form her and take my hand away. "Yeah, kind of annoying. But what I did what Hollybella won't work with Maria, she has her soul, her life, she just needs someone to take her hand."
"I'm going to save her." Lucy states as the sword starts to glow.
Satter! I call to Alistair in my head.
I hear him shout at the others and soon they're scatter back and away form Maria. I take a break as Lucy's magic gathers and yell "Hey ugly behind you!"
Maria spins around and for a split second she doesn't know what's going on and that's all the time we need. Lucy whispers a quick spell and releases her magic. Gold light shoots out form the sword, it's wind pushes me back, making my messy braided hair to trash around. Maria screams and throws up her hands for a blocking spell. The gold magic spots dead before bursting around her.
—
He enter onto the roof top only to be pushed back by a powerful violent gust of wind. He fights through it and he pulls his gun. The light is blinding as it encircles the vampire he was sent to capture. This mission, we work, it has taken him almost a year to finally get to this point. He was not going to let the War Mag Circle get in the way again. This was his last job, he swore to his family he was going to come back, and these interlopers where not going to get in his way.
—
I stumble as another rush of wind pushes from Lucy power struggle. Powerful arms trap and pull me close.
"Kurama I told you."
"I don't care what you said, we're going to have words when this is over, but right now I don't need you getting stabbed, chock, or capture again." He snaps.
I let out a breath as his sent overpowers my seances. "I can't think when you're close"
"I'm sorry I didn't think it would be this bad" He whispers making my heart jump.
I pull what was left of my magic into my core and force it to get me focused. I let out a tried breath.
"I'm going to move us away form here" he says while shifting his body weight.
"No" I stop him making him stumble "I told Lucy that I would stay."
"Holly it isn't safe here"
"I don't care!" I snap as a scream echoes out.
I snap my eyes to Lucy as she pushes with all she has, her lips move as one last burst of gold magic explodes from her sword like a gun shot. Wind rips around us as the magic hits Maria shattering her barrier in a violent explosion, sending a backlash of power towards Lucy. I stumble as the power hits Lucy sending her flying back, high, I watch as she flies towards the edge of the roof, she's going to fly over. Instance wild panic hits me in the power I didn't know I had left, I push off Kurama and run.
"Wait Holly, don't!"
I don't look back as I push off with all the magic and willpower I have left. I have to get to her, I have to save her. This's my fault, all of it. I wasn't strong enough, brave enough, smart enough, I wasn't… I shake my head as Lucy disappears over the roof edge.
I push harder as I come to the edge
"Holly stop!" I hear not to far behind me.
I suck in a breath as my feet hit the edge, without thinking I jump, as the wind of missed hands skim mine.
—
Kurama swore as he missed Holly hand. With all his power she out ran him, by seconds. She stunned him twice today, first braking his contract weakening him, and then shooting a blast of her power at him making him dazed, confused long enough for her to run away. He used his demonic speed to try and catch her but she jumped before he could. He knelt down looking over the edge, he couldn't see her, there was too much mist, clouds, just too much.
He stood and stripped off his jacket maybe there was a chance he could.
"Rosa is that you?"
He spun around at the familiar voice, and again was stunned for the third time that day.
—
Wind whips at my face and hair. Lucy's out of reach, she too far away. I pulls my arms back hoping I can fall faster, get to her. I pull with all I have left at the everything and nothing around me, bagging it to leaned me some more power to help me defy gravity. My ears start to ring as my body becomes faster, my power pushes away the mist and the low riding clouds. She getting closer, just a few more inches. I don't dear to look be-young her, I don't want to know how fast the ground is coming.
I reach out with my arms as her body slams into mind, I cough out as I lose my breath.
"Lucy wake up!" I scream over the rushing wind.
She doesn't respond and I finally see the ground just seconds from us. I clutch her closer and wish with everything that I have that I had the wings that every other mage has. I close my eyes as the ground reaches out to meet us. In a rush of pain and power we stop, I open my eyes as I feel the heat from the ground on my skin. We've stopped just inches form the ground. I laugh out as electrum feathers fall around us. I don't waist time as I spin us around and will myself to fly back up to the roof. As the wins whips pass up Lucy wakes.
"Holly you" starts pulling her face form my chest.
"It's going to okay" I say as we reach the top of the roof.
I burst through the mist in a twirl a few feet above the roof. I look down at my family and smile as I drift over to the roof to land.
"See I told you" I say with a giggle happy that I finally did what every mage first learns.
"Lets just let down, I'm done, like really done." She says looking a little green.
"Okay" I giggle just as my new wings disappears in a rush of gold and silver.
Shit, shit, shit!
We drop like rocks and scream like the girls we are. We hold on for dear life hoping to god one of the guys down theres saves us. I close my eyes as I clutch Lucy closer muffling her screams. I'm going to get spatter, after everything, I'm going die from my own lack of magic.
God, damn, hell, stupid!
We land hard on some poor soul in a loud crack. Lucy breaks away from me as I roll the other way.
"My god Holly!" I hear mom yell as she pulls me to my feet.
I stumble and push off a way of dizziness.
"Lucy are you okay?' I hear Alistair stress as I open my eyes in time to see him pull her into a strong hug.
I wobble and lean agents her just as Kurama appears next to me, taking me in his arms.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" he snaps crushing me in a hug.
"I don't know, but what did I fall on?" I ask pulling weakly,away from him; I don't have he energy to fight right now.
"Well" He looks away as I hear a grown form the ground.
I slowly turn as a fearful chills hits me. I see a man sits up, a man I know better then I know myself. I wobble in shock, that isn't just any man, that's my
"Dad?"
—
Spoiler
My stomach drops as black spots fill my vision. I can't process this right now. Not now, I don't have the energy. He isn't supposed to be here. I need to scream; cry, just, he isn't.
"Holly" I hear Kurama stress.
"I'm okay, I just use too much of, well everything, and a little more. I need sleep, or maybe I'm sleeping already." I mutter.
"Holly" Dad says taking a tentative step towards me.
His voice sends a spark through me, cleaning my vision. I force my heavy eyes latch onto his. He stops, he, we; don't know what to do or say. This isn't how it was supposed to work, this "Isn't right"
