Chapter 4: "I need to leave"
Li's point of view
I layed in that bed for what seemed like an eternity. My body ached but it didn't feel like I had broken anything.
"A fall like that should've killed me"
As I layed there helpless, I clenched my fist. I was mad...mad at fly for attacking me, mad at my mother for making me leave, but most of all I was mad at myself for leaving Sakura behind. The thought of never seeing her again made me weak and sick to my stomach. I was in the middle of my thoughts when I heard the door open. I quickly pretended to be asleep. The first voice I heard belonged to a male, obviously older. His voice was harsh.
"Well? Is he awake yet?"
The second voice I heard belonged to a girl, obviously far younger than he was.
"No he's still sleeping...I thought for sure he'd be up by now.
"Well as soon as he's up I want him outta here," the male voice replied, "I ain't running a hotel here"
They both left and i opened my eyes, I had nothing to do but sleep...so thats exactaly what I did.
Sakura's point of view
"I'm leaving and thats final!" I yelled back at Kero who was trying to talk me out of going. "Fly came back to me for a reason."
"But Sakura its far too dangerous," Kero repeated for the seventh time. "You only have two of the cards and the other fifty are out there somewhere unsealed."
"I don't care!" At this point I was screaming, "Li is out there somewhere too and if Fly attacked him the others might too."
"FLY" I screamed slamming my wand down on the card. I mounted the wand which had now grown two mighty wings.
"Well if your going I'm comming too," Kero said as he flew into my backpack. "This could get messy"
"I'm comming Li...just hold on"
Li's Point of view
I woke up in the middle of the night and with some amount of pain willed myself out of the bed. I grabbed my amulet which was neatly placed on the dresser beside the bed and walked over to the window.
"I need to leave...I need to find her"
Making sure I still had all my element cards on me I started to open the window when I heard a voice behind me.
"You're leaving aren't you?" It was the female voice.
Turning around to face her I saw that she was about my age. She was a little shorter than me and had long brown har. She had a pretty face and brown eyes.
I nodded my head slowly and she ran up to me and grabbed my arm.
"PLEASE take me with you." There were tears mixed in with her words. "I hate it here. I saw you when you jumped out of that airplane and what you can do...I know you can keep me safe."
I didn't know how to respond. She looked so sad. I reluctantly agreed to let her come along just because I was worried if I didn't let her come she would cause a scene and wake someone up.
We were two stories up so I jumped from the window and landed on the ground with a saumersalt. I looked back up at the window and the girl looked confused.
"How do I get down?" she asked inquizitivly.
I rolled my eyes and had to promise three different times that I would catch her before she finally jumped. I caught her just like I said I would and even before I could put her down she spoke again.
"By the way I'm Kristie."
I was about to introduce myself as well when I notcied something in the distance comming towards us. It appeared to be a ball of fire. I felt a knot in my stomach. I knew exactally what It was. I reached for my element cards and whispered to myself,
"Firey" |
