Magic Fades

That night Izz had woken up after having nightmares about many things especially the fact his friends would abandon him if they knew his magic was fading but tears welled in those kind snail like eyes of his as he felt a hand rub his soft grey furred back as he knew Carley had heard that he was sad as sadness was reflected in her blue eyes as he could feel she was worried.

"Are you afraid about getting sick?

I overheard Elissa and Leah saying something like that but I'm not sure but you've been sad and not yourself.

I know you like to be brave by keeping these feelings to yourself but it's okay to cry." she answered hugging him.

He nodded feeling her Love from her as he knew she wouldn't abandon him but wasn't sure about the others as he sneezed as she saw golden dust come out and knew it was Wish Dust but wondered why because she hadn't made a wish and had a feeling something was wrong with him.

He then yawned as he needed to sleep but the fear was keeping him awake as he heard gentle calming music play.

He hoped that the others wouldn't leave him when they did find out he had no magic.........

The next morning Carley was woken by soft moaning beside her as she saw that Izz was shivering as he seemed very pale and weak as she was nervous knowing that something was wrong with her Psammead friend as she saw tears from his snail like eyes knowing that he needed help as she knew that he didn't want to tell the others as she knew only one place they could go to get help as she picked Izz up gently as she opened a portal to Aria and went through it as she hoped that Skye could help him as she appeared in the purple bricked castle as Ogre Child was happy to see het saw worry in her blue eyes as she hoped things would be okay.

"He's been acting weird since a couple of days ago but he won't tell us." she said as the Ogreix Warrior understood as she hugged her as Skye examined Izz but fear was in her eyes as they wondered what was wrong.

"He has begun to lose his magic and nearly lost it." the Goodness Witch answered.

Carley was worried about this as she wondered how he could've lost his magic but remembered what Elissa had told him about some Psammeads not keeping their magic and that her friend was one of them.

She felt sad for him.

She remembered that Izz had been telling her about that magic could show you the way but it couldn't solve your problems because in the end, it was up to you as she sighed as Izz's snail like eyes opened as he smiled shakily

"Don't worry Izzard at least I care about you." she answered.

"I know but Leah and the others won't once they find out the truth as humans only care about us when we have magic but when we don't, they abandon us and don't care." he said softly.

"Not Leah.

She would still care about you even if she knew." she answered.

Ogre Child agreed as she saw Izz asleep as Carley left to return to Earth but hoped things would be okay.

She knew that Carley and Leah would find a way to help.........

When she returned from Aria, it was nearly time to go to school as she saw Leah playing video games on her laptop as Elissa was playing against her as Carley smiled sadly knowing that Izz would be curious if he was back in the house with them as she grabbed her backpack as Leah realised they had to go as Elissa was sad.

"We'll play later when we come back." Leah reassured her.

The female Psammead then understood as she was playing by herself but had a feeling that Izz wasn't back and that something had happened to him and hoped that wasn't true as he was family to her as she mentally willed herself to calm down.

"I hope nothing happened." she told herself as she decided to go to Aria.

Leah noticed that her friend was quiet as they walked to school but knew she and Izz had went to Aria late last night and hadn't returned until this morning and without Izz as she had a feeling something bothered her as they walked to school.

"Would you and David still care about Izz and Elissa even if they didn't have any magic at all?" Carley asked.

The hazel eyed girl was thrown off guard by that question as she remembered what her friend and even Izz had told her about how selfish humans acted around Psammeads and treating them horribly when their magic was gone by throwing water on them making ill and die out.

"Yes David and I would care about Izz and Elissa if they didn't have their magic.

We're their friends and friends don't hurt each other just because they changed or something happened.

Why did you ask that?" Leah told her softly.

"Izz is beginning to lose his magic and is ill but he was the one who wanted me to ask you that because he thinks that you and David will forget about him when his magic goes.

Magic can show you the way but in the end it's up to you.

He will need our help to adjust." she answered as Leah understood as she and her headed to Homeroom..........
