Nakamas Can be Family
Carley found Izz lying on the couch in the living room.
She then put a blanket over his body to keep him warm. She then used her Ogreix to create a calming aura.
She'd noticed his aura was dark and dingy.
Leah wondered what happened as her soulmate entered the kitchen as she was making pancakes.
Elisa followed her into the living room.
She gasped softly after her friend explained what was wrong with her brother.
"I can relate. My parents entered the spirit world. That's why I came here but Izz found me and adopted me as his sister." she said softly.
She watched as Carley opened a portal to Aria.
"I wonder why she's going there for? Probably to see Jen to seek help for Izz.
They are friends, partners." she thought seeing her brother's eyes open slowly.
"Good morning." she said.
"What's so good about it huh Elisa?
Nothing, that's what!" he snapped at her.
That scared her and Leah. She'd never seen him like this. She hoped Jen could help them out with advice.
Izz then ate very little and went upstairs.
"Something isn't right with him.
I wonder what it is, he's never that angry with us." Leah thought.
Jen thought about what Carley had told him.
"He's taking it pretty hard. I know how he feels. After my adopted parents were wiped out by Nalia and the shadow spirits, I was feeling alone and felt like I had no family.
He needs to know he's not alone." the Ogarian Knight told her.
She nodded.
"Thanks Jen." she said leaving.
She returned to Leah's house around lunch time and found her playing Guitar Hero with David.
"Hey you're back! Did Jen help?" she heard Elisa ask.
"Yeah but where is Izz?" she replied.
"We don't know. He barely ate anything and went upstairs. We haven't seen him since." Leah told her.
She went upstairs and found him lying on her bed asleep with her Skullcandy head phones on and manga in front of him like a pillow.
"Poor guy. You're trying to come to terms with something hard like Jess in Terabithia when Leslie left him. I hope you'll be okay. It hurts us to see you so down like this." she said through her mental link she used through her Ogreix.
His eyes opened slowly seeing her.
"..... How're you?
Leah was worried for you as well as the others.
I also talked to Jen. He knows what you're going through.
We hate seeing you so miserable like this but it'll be okay." she told him hugging him as he cried a little.
It felt good for him to let it out. He then took a breath.
"..... Would the others understand if they knew?" Izz asked her. Carley nodded.
"Yes." she answered him.
He then went to take a walk to clear his head......
