Red And Blue

Cure And Incurable

"Hmm, this is a problem…" Roarian hissed as he tried to heal the brothers.

"What do you mean?" Blaze asked. "What's wrong?"

"It seems that I… cannot reverse the darkness crawling up their skin," the flying lion replied. "It seems to be stuck,"

"W-What?" Blaze's eyes widened in
horror. "Then... w-w-what can we do?!"

"I… I am not sure," Roarian sighed.

"I-It's fine," Glacier assured them as he and Crusher got up, a little weak but they managed anyway. "This… This is normal, after what happened to Crusher earlier,"

"W-What do you mean?" Blaze asked. "This is something that's happened before?"

"Yes," Crusher nodded his head. "It was a few years back, but it didn't really leave much marks. Glacier… he… tried to kill me at that time, and when he did, Grammy tried to get me healed by a healer. It worked, but Dynama didn't want it to, so she tried attacking, and we all end up casting a family reversal spell,"

"A family reversal spell?"

"It's a spell that happens when our most powerful magic clashes," Glacier explained. "Crusher got frost bite from my attack, and after the clash, we all got frost bite,"

"That's another reason why Dynama tried to get rid of my magic; to make sure we don't clash again," Crusher sighed. "but I guess we did anyway,"

"It'll be okay," Blaze assured. "We'll find a way to stop them... if I can think of a plan." But, then he turned to Glacier and sighed. "Glacier... I owe you an apology. I shouldn't have snapped at you the way I did. I knew you were upset about Speedrick, and I guess I over-reacted."

"I'm sorry too," Glacier apologized, to them both. "I… Speedrick had been the first truck to care about me, so seeing him hurt and me not being able to do anything about it just made me snap, even though I shouldn't,"

"We forgive you," Crusher smiled weakly. "Speaking of Speedrick... how is he, Roarian?"

"And the kids?" Blaze asked quickly.

"I still need to heal them, but they will be fine," Roarian assured them. "The twins are already resting and should be healed by tomorrow, but Blaze, I would need your help to cure the others,"

"You got it." Blaze nodded.

He grabbed his sunstone then they all headed to the room where the Quadruplets were. Darington and Pickle were at their bedsides, still watching over them as the four entered the room.

"Guys! You're back!" Darington sighed. "But... what happened to Crush and Glacier?"

"Effects of a family reversal spell," Blaze explained. "Roarian and I will heal the quad as best we can. You two stand back."

Darington and Pickle nodded and backed up as Roarian and Blaze stepped forward. Their sunstones glowed brightly as their magic loomed over the quad. Little by little, they started to gain their color as the illness slowly faded away.

"It's working!" Pickle whispered.

The curse started to cease, and the quad all squirmed before crying as the last of the pain left them. Pickle and Darington quickly got them to hold them and rock them to sleep as the group sighed in relief.

"They should be okay by tomorrow," Roarian said. "But we need to let them rest."

"Now we just need to heal Speedrick," Blaze sighed.

"Yes! Finally!" Glacier sped out of the room.

Crusher chuckled before feeling himself a little dizzy. He grasped the wall for a moment, panting, much to the red truck's concern.
