25: your broken

Hortensia

I am the most wanted criminal in Sarvale now. My eyes squint as I stay with Fred and Sam and review the video of the attack. My face is completely visible but Amanda did a good job in keeping her head down and her hair on her face.

And to make things worse, they have printed posters of my face. We are trying to form a plan to retaliate.

"You notice how he isn't wearing the pendant." Fred looks at me.

I nod. "That is what I am thinking about," I smirk as realization dawns on me.

He doesn't have the pendant. I buried Adar when he was wearing it.

"We need to retrieve it before something happens. We can't let it get to his hand." Sam adds.

I nod. "He can't break the ice surrounding the graveyard. Only I can."

"What do you think he would do next?" Fred looks at me.

I take a deep breath as my skin feels clammy."He would never waste his time going to the graveyard. He knows he can't get it anyways plus we injured his both legs. He would be resting. This is our chance to retrieve it."

"You will go right now and take Sam and Petunia with you. I think we owe Petunia the right to go on missions with us now." Fred pats my back as I give him a weak smile.

"What about Blaze? He would want to go too." Sam says and I nod.

He won't leave me alone. He will go at any cost.

Fred sighs. "Alright but make sure he remains in the back. He is just the backup. If anyone saw him, our secrets would be out. We need to make sure they believe that Blaze is on their side until the end."

I nod and I and Sam go to prepare for the mission.

I walk past a training room and I see Blaze inside. He is practicing targets with his power. He isn't very good at it though. He still doesn't know how to completely control it. And we don't have any fire creator that could teach him.

I open the door and he halts in his actions. He gives me an embarrassed smile but sobers up when he sees my hollow face.

"What is it?" He approaches me.

"I have to go dig out Adar's body." My voice comes out shaky and he pulls me in an embrace.

"You know it's dangerous. Let someone else go." He mumbles against my hair.

I pull back and look at him."Nobody else can melt that graveyard."

Realization passes in his eyes as he sighs."I forgot you are my age and that the unbreakable graveyard is your doing too."

I told him everything about myself yesterday. He knows my age. He was quite shocked at that. I told him everything about everyone.

"I'm coming with you and you can't stop me."

"I know. " He smiles at my answer.

"Follow me. We need to dress up."I say and he follows me to another room.

He gasps like a child as he sees the armory inside. The different uniforms.
