A/N: Please Comment and Review. Hope you guys enjoy! Bye! Love Ya! P.S. I might start another Huntik story. I don't know yet but keep watching for it.
Huntik Headquarters: 3 years later
"Is she still not talking to anyone?" Zhalia asks Metz as she walks over to the white clear room with Emma sitting in the middle all alone.
Metz lowers his head with a depress look on his face as she stares at her with his head slowly shaking to her. He lays his hand upon the double-mirror glass in front of them.
"She won't talk to anyone." Metz replies as he forms his hand into a fist of anger. "We should have saved her."
Zhalia lowers her head, remembering Jasmine. The day that she died in front of Emma without her even knowing it until it was too late to save her.
Flashback:
Zhalia slams a punch into her sister's face as she watches her sister's hands fall towards the ground with a tiny gem in her hands, hitting the ground with a click.
Emma's eyes change to her normal dark blue eyes with tears running through her eyes. She slowly gets up as she stares at Jasmine, laying down in front of her with the rain hitting her body. Her eyes open in fear and horror. She glances up at Zhalia who is breathing hard in frustration, as the rain pours down from the sky hitting Zhalia's face. The rain covers the tears from Zhalia's eyes at that moment.
Emma slowly places her hand on Jasmine's cold body with horror entering her eyes before screaming one name that echoes throughout the forest, "JASMINE!"
Zhalia drops to her knees as Emma grabs a hold of Jasmine in her arms. She starts to rock her, trying to wake her up from the wound in her abdomen.
"Wake up!" Emma pleads to Jasmine's body. "Wake up!"
Zhalia stares at her sister that was being controled by a key power living inside of her. It is still living inside of her. She cannot get rid of it until Zhalia or her dies. Emma holds Jasmine like a mother caring for her child that has just past.
"Emma..." Zhalia whispers to her crying sister.
"Jasmine!" Emma cries to her dear friend. "You weren't suppose to die. You were suppose to live on and live a happy life. You weren't suppose to die!"
"Emma..." Zhalia places a hand upon Emma's shoulder.
"Leave me alone!" Emma screams at Zhalia.
Zhalia backs her arm back to her as she watches Dante carrying Lok onto the helicopter with Eathon following behind for his son. Zachary struggles up as he shakes his head to Zhalia. Emma covers her head in Jasmine's chest as the rain continues to fall towards the ground. Metz walks over as he helps Zhalia off the ground.
"We have to bring her back to headquarters." Metz whispers to Zhalia.
Emma rocks Jasmine still as she strokes Jasmine's hair behind her ear. She slowly covers her eyes as shutting them, like she is just sleeping in Emma's arms. She slowly gets up as Zhalia and Metz watches Emma getting off the ground with Jasmine in her arms.
"Emma?" Zhalia glances at her sister.
Emma walks down the road towards the waterfall. Zachary stops Zhalia from touching Emma at all. They slowly walk behind her all the way to the waterfall. Emma lays her hand in the water as a bright green glow erupts the water's current. Zhalia stares at the green gem in Emma's hand as she places Jasmine's body in the water. She places the green gem upon Jasmine's chest and closes her eyes.
"What is she doing?" Zhalia asks Zachary and Metz at the same time.
"She is releasing Jasmine." Zachary answers her with his head lowered at that moment.
"Walk upon the stars my dear friend. You will dance in the moonlight that shines down upon this water with the rain covering your tears. Let the gem guild you home." Emma whispers to Jasmine's body as she releases her hold on Jasmine in the water.
Jasmine's body starts to float all the way down the water as she heads towards the moon by herself. Emma slowly gets up and turns to Metz as she holds her hands out of the blue. Zachary looks over at Metz and lowers his head again.
"Do we have to?" Zachary asks him.
"Yes." Metz answers him with a slight nod. "That is what she ordered us to."
"What? Who?" Zhalia wonders what the two of them are talking about.
"Emma knew that a death would happen today. She just didn't know who. So..." Zachary stops talking at that moment.
"So what?" Zhalia glances at him until she turns to Metz.
"So she ordered us, that if she didn't die that we are suppose to lock her up." Metz answers her with a depressed expression.
"What?" Zhalia replies shocked.
Met lowers his head as he locks Emma in the special cuffs that block all power from escaping. Emma lowers her head as she is walked into the helicopter where Lok and Sophie lay unconscious. Dante grabs Den and Harrison as everyone heads into the helicopter. Everyone wants to this place as soon as possible.
Flashback Ends
"You know we couldn't have." Zhalia places a hand on Metz's shoulder. "Emma just hasn't realized that yet."
"Zhalia it has been 3 years." Metz reminds her. "You and Dante are married now. Emma didn't even leave her room or smile when you told her that you were getting married a year ago. She won't talk to anyone or even see anyone. You have someone coming."
"That is another topic for another day." She lowers her head to Metz. "Has she gone to visit him?" Zhalia wonders out of the blue.
"No." Metz shakes his head. "She wants him to come and see her."
"How do you know?" Zhalia asks Metz.
Metz waves Zhalia to walk over to the other side of the room. Zhalia slowly stares at the big wall with nothing but drawings of the Keys, Jasmine, Zhalia, and Lok on the wall. Zhalia covers her mouth with horror as she stares at the pain her sister stares at everyday.
"She drew those the first year she was here." Metz informs Zhalia. "She only draws."
Zhalia lays one of her hands on the glass not moving the other. She stares at the horror and pain that is echoing through her sister's mind everyday, every hour. Metz places his hand upon her shoulder.
"That is why I am worried about her." Metz tells Zhalia. "Den has recovered almost completely now. He is still doing therapy with Sophie about the two traumas that they had at South America."
"And Lok..." Zhalia whispers, remembering the trouble they had that night when they got back.
Flashback:
"Lok!" Zhalia shouts at him. "Wake up!"
Emma stares at Lok, laying there on the seats of the helicopter. He hasn't move since Emma threw him into one of the pyramids. Sophie lays unconscious as well but she has no physical injures that are showing. Zhalia stares at Lok's head wound that is causing her to worry.
"Hurry up! We have to get to the hospital!" Zhalia shouts at the pilot.
"I am going as fast as I can lady." The pilot yells back at her.
Zhalia lays her hands on Lok's wounds and tries to stop the bleeding from his skull. Dante helps her with the wound as Emma stares at Lok with no emotion. She has nothing to show them at all. They finally arrive as Eathon carries Lok into the emergency room. Everyone is bitting their nails as Sophie and Lok are rust into the hospital. Metz takes Emma back to Huntik Headquarters as everyone else waits there for Sophie and Lok. Some of the doctors came back and informs the team about Sophie but nothing about Lok.
"He will be okay." Dante will try to encourage everyone. "This is Lok we are talking about."
Zhalia lays on Dante's shoulder as hours past. Eathon calls Lok's mother and sister as he has to explain that he is their father and husband. The convincing took longer than explaining that they have to get down to the hospital because Lok is in the emergency surgery. They soon arrive as Lok's doctor walks into the room with a depressed look upon his face that everyone stares at the doctor with a worried expression on their faces as well.
"Are you the parents of Lok Lambert?" The doctor asks Eathon and Sandra Lambert.
"Yes." They both reply to the doctor. "How is our son?"
Sandra holds her long missing husband in her arms, as close as she can, afraid that he will disappear from her again. Cathy holds onto her father as well afraid to lose both her brother and father.
"I'm afraid to say..."
Flashback ends
A monitor goes off in one of the private rooms of Huntik Headquarters. Zhalia glances up from Metz as they charge towards the alarm that is going off like crazy. Zhalia glances at her sister not moving at all from the alarm. If there was a fire, people would have to drag her out to safety if they wanted to keep her alive.
"What is going on?" Dante asks Metz and Zhalia as they are close towards the alarm.
"No idea." Metz and Zhalia answer him as they run into the room with the alarm.
Zhalia stares at the name plate on the door. "Lok..."
They swing open the door to see Lok standing up with the tube still in his mouth. He is yanking the feeding tube that has been in his throat for 3 years now.
"Lok!" Zhalia screams as she holds his arms back.
Doctors rush into the room and help pull the tube out of his throat. He starts coughing up some dry blood before falling into Dante's and Zhalia's arms on the floor. Metz tries to get his breathing back as the doctors slowly pull all their equipment back in place.
"What happen?" Lok starts asking question right off the bat.
"Calm down for a moment." Dante orders him as Sophie, Den, Harrison, Sandra, Eathon, and Cathy run into the room, out of breath as well.
"Lok!" They all scream as tears come into Sophie, Sandra, Eathon, and Cathy's eyes.
"Hey," Lok waves to them like he was not just in a coma. "What happened?"
"You were in a coma." Metz answers him finally.
"How long?" Lok wonders to them.
"3 years." Cathy answers him as she wraps him in her arms. "We have missed you so much."
Lok hugs her back as everyone else starts to join in. Lok holds back his tears as he hugs everyone in one big group hug. Soon everyone releases and stares at each other in complete silence. This day is going to be the best day of all their lives and no one is ever going to forget it.
5 days later:
They all sit in Lok's room because the doctors have ordered him to stay put. Lok and getting updates on what has happen to the world between the 3 years that he has been in the one though will mention Emma to him yet. So Dante and Zhalia smile and wait until everyone is sitting to announce something that they have been keeping a secret for a while now.
"Well," Dante looks at Zhalia. "I guess since this is a great week. We better announce something."
"What are you talking about?" Sophie wonders to them.
"Zhalia and I are having a baby." Dante announces to them.
Everyone screams in excitement as Lok stares at Metz who is trying to hid in the corner. Everyone starts to congratulate Dante and Zhalia as Lok walks over to Metz.
"I see that you are getting better." Metz whispers to him as they walk out of the room for a moment.
"Can I ask you something Metz?" Lok questions Metz.
"What is it boy?" Metz wonders to Lok.
"Where is Emma?" Lok asks Metz about the one person that he has been worrying about since he woke up. "I know that she is here."
"She is not doing well." Metz answers him.
"I want to see her." Lok replies to Metz. "I need to see Emma."
"Lok..." Metz shakes his head at Lok. "She won't talk to anyone. She is still trying to get over with Jasmine's death."
"I want to see her Metz!" Lok orders Metz this time.
Metz lowers his head at that point to look away from Lok and glances into the room where everyone is enjoying themselves with Zhalia and Dante's great news.
"Come with me." Metz waves Lok to follow him as they travel down a quiet hallway. Metz places his hand on a doorknob when they reach the end of the hallway to an abandon hallway. "She is in here." Metz holds the door shut for a moment to remind Lok. "She is still not ready for human contact. So don't tell anyone that I am allowing you to see her."
"Yes sir." Lok answers Metz as Metz finally opens the door.
Lok walks into the white blank room with a bed in the corner of the room. He stares at Emma, sitting in the middle of the room. She slowly turns her head to stare eye to eye with Lok. Lok watches as the tears start to break down her cheeks.
"Emma..." Lok whispers her name as she quickly gets up into Lok's chest.
"Lok!" Emma cries out as she holds tightly onto Lok's shirt.
He slowly drops down to his knees as she holds on tight to him. They don't move just sit there as Emma's cries to Lok in her complete sorrow state. She doesn't say another word as they sit there with no one watching them. They just sit there as Lok lays his hand on her head, waiting for the next word to come our of her unspoken mouth. They are not messed with until Lok has to get checked by the doctors at dinner time. Emma doesn't let go of him until Lok promises to come back tomorrow. They soon have a routine until Emma starts to get out of that white room. But at that moment, Emma just didn't want it to go away because she knows that if she doesn't take control soon, the power of the Key would kill another person she dearly loves.
So she makes a promise to Lok one day, "Lok..." She begins as she places her hand on the white wall of her room. "I promise that I will not allow this Secret Missing Human Key Within me, take control of me. I will be stronger than it and no one will ever get hurt again. Thank you Lok for all of your help. Thank you again."
Lok smiles at her as they slowly take hands together and walk out of the room together as friends for the rest of their lives and that is how Zhalia obtains her sister back. By a young boy, who saw more than an object hidden within a young girl, all by herself until the end. The end when she realizes that she had so many friends before she even knew it.
THE END!
