Feelings Of A Twin Psammead
Leah was amazed hearing what her friend had told her about what Jen had told her about Bronx.
"I didn't know Izz had a twin brother.
Do they both know?" she asked as Carley shook her head.
"No.
When their parents were pulled into the Shadow Storm, Bronx was six years old while Izz was only a year old but the Elders of Psammeadis allowed Brydon to take Izz and he along with Skye adopted him while Bronx grew up on the streets of Latanis fending for himself.
They've never met but they can tell they're related." she explained as they were making lunch.
But they heard Bronx outside in the garden but fencing using his sword.
They were both impressed but Izz and David were worried about that.
"Leah are you sure it's a good idea for him to stay with us?
He could be dangerous or hurt somebody.
He nearly hurt Sheba with that sword!" David said which made Carley angry.
"First off his name is Bronx.
Second off he was sent here by Jen so he could be safe from Kaya the Sorceroress of Shadow Equinix and he's finding it hard to adjust to being here.
He has been living on the streets of Lantanis since he was six.
He needs to trust us." she snapped.
Both Leah and Izz were impressed but surprised by their friend but understood.
They watched as she went to cool off.
Bronx was surprised seeing Carley sitting out in the garden o the swing but he could feel tension from the young human.
He knew that she cared about him as somebody who understood but gasped as he felt that she was a friend.
He resheathed his sword as he went over but saw her eyes were closed.
"Is..... something bothering you?" he asked softly but nervousness was in his voice.
"I'm okay Bronx.
Just a little steamed off." she answered.
The Psammead was confused by that.
"What does that mean Carley?" he asked her.
"It means that you're angry.
It's just David judging you before he gets to know you.
To you, this world is strange and frightening but he doesn't know what it's like to come to an new place or world and have to fit in.
I can see you're cool.
With the swash buckling just like Zorro." she told him.
Bronx smiled shyly at that.
But then his head began to ache as memories he'd forgotten and blocked out were resurfacing.
"N-No!
I couldn't save them.
I'm sorry!" he said as tears were in his snail like eyes but he wasn't facing her.
"Bronx?
Bronx you okay?" she asked him.
"I-I'm fine........" he mumured gritting his teeth.
She could feel his sadness.
"It's okay to cry Bronx.
You were remembering about the Shadow Storm huh?
I can tell you miss them." she said gently.
Bronx was surprised hearing that.
"Jen was right about this human that she's Ogre Child's other half.
The gentler side of her.
I wish I could open up." he thought as he fainted which worried the girl.......
In Aria Jen and Ogre Child were nervous watching what had happened but knew that for Kaya to be destroyed, both Izz and Bronx had to use their Equinix powers to stop her and that couted on unity between the two brothers and for that to happen, they had to know the truth about themselves.
"You need to tell Carley to tell Bronx and Izz the truth about themselves, that they're brothers.
It's the only way to protect all Aria from Kaya." Jen told Ogre Child.
She understood what her husband meant as she opened a portal to Earth........
Bronx's snail like eyes opened as he found himself in Carley's room but his head was in agony.
"Why is this happening now?" he mumured as he looked in the mirror.
The purple star mark on his furry forehead was glowing and it made him nervous but calmed down.
"Calm down Bronx.
Maybe your Shadow Equinix powers are just reawakening after coming here.
Nothing to really worry about." he said softly but looked around.
He noticed her room was special as notebooks were everywhere along with fantasy and myth and legend books especially about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
A smile crossed his face weakly........
Leah was surprised to see Ogre Child show up in the living room.
"What's going on?
Is Aria in danger?" she asked her.
She shook her head.
"No.
I need to speak to Carley.
It's about Bronx." she answered as Leah understood.
"She's in the garden cooling off." David answered staring.
