48. Beach Vacation Part 2

Borko’s P.O.V

The first night was already over. I sat on the porch in a banana lounge in this humid summer night. The flicker I had managed to form in my hands soon died out and I let out an agitated sigh.

“Yo dude.” A familiar voice called as Sky approached me and flopped into the second banana lounge beside me.

“Oh… hey Sky.” I muttered as I tilted my head back and looked up at the stars.

“What’s up? I’ve noticed you haven’t really been actin’ yourself, is something bothering you?” Sky questioned.

“Oh, no it’s just way too hot I kinda wish it were winter.” I lied.

“Dude, if it were winter you wouldn’t get to see all the hotties in their bikinis.” Sky stated this made me chuckle slightly.

“You have a point there.” I replied with another sigh.

“Everyone wants us inside, curfew is up and Dei sensei wants us all in bed, he said we can chat in our rooms or whatever but I have no interest in chatting with hot head.” Sky said with his same casual grin. It caused me to feel slightly guilty, I assumed he was suffering more than I was yet he wasn’t showing it I guess you had to have a brave face if you were a guardian. But the thought of me being just like an average human pained me and caused me to feel depressed.

“Sure, I’ll be in soon.” I told him.

“Right. Catch ya.” Sky replied as he climbed to his feet and headed back inside. After a while Joan came outside and sat next to me on the same banana lounge I happened to be on.

“Borko, I know what is wrong.” Joan stated.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I replied as she took my hands in hers and looked me deeply in the eyes.

“Please don’t lie to me, I was sent here to teach you and to protect you. I know you have lost your powers and it pains me to see you this way.” Joan said, complete and utter emotion in her golden eyes. My own eyes widened.

“How did you…” I began but trailed off.

“I could tell by your aura it isn’t as vibrant as it was.” Joan stated.

“I’m useless now.” I replied.

“No, that isn’t true, I truly believe that your powers will return you must have faith in yourself like I have faith in you and please promise me that you won’t continue being sad and you will speak with me when something is bothering you.” Joan said, this was touching and I kissed her on the cheek.

“I will, but please don’t tell anyone, I’m not ready yet.” I said and Joan nodded in agreement as we headed inside towards our rooms.

The next day we got up and headed out again, it was about 12:00pm when Dei spoke up everyone was doing their own thing.

“I’m going inside to get something to eat keep an eye out for one another for a while.” Dei called everyone nodded.

“Dei, I need to tell you something important.” I stated as I followed Dei inside.

Sky's P.O.V

Everyone seemed to be having fun. I watched as Courtney sat on the shore with Riley. She seemed scared and I knew exactly why but I chose to let Riley handle it. Dei and Borko had headed back to the residence we had been staying at.

As I stood on a rock looking out into the ocean I noticed something splashing nearby, lifting up my sunglasses I glanced over to where the splashing was coming from and saw the little mermaid trying to catch her breath. I soon confirmed that she was drowning. Quickly looking around I scanned the area to see if anybody nearby could help Sienna, soon I confirmed there wasn’t and dived in. I swam towards Sienna as quickly as I could and wrapped my arm around her waist, I then swam back towards the rock and carefully lay her down.
