Sky and Riven along with graduated specialists enter the forest. They stop once they see burnt earth and marks In the earth. "This is where she was first attacked." Silva says while Sky looks down. Picking up the gold necklace Lydia was wearing he sees her family crest before he puts it in his pocket. "They keep going this way." Riven says and they all begin to walk in that direction. The see more scorched earth that leads to a clearing where they find pieces of Lydias dress. "It stops here." Silva says and they all begin to look around. "It can be anywhere by now." Sky says while Silva looks at him. "We keep looking." He says while they all do that.
Six hours has gone by and no such luck. Talking amongst themselves they hear a screech and they all turn in the direction they heard the noise from. "Get ready its close." Hearing a call come in its Harvey with grim news. "We're losing her you need to hurry, the royal family of Orindoth is here, they're getting ready to say goodbye to their daughter." Harvey says before Silva hangs up. "She is down to the last couple of minutes, no time waste." Silva says and they do as they're told. The burned one finally shows its face with bits of Lydia's dress in its mouth. "You were all trained for this !" Silva shouts while they all get in formation. Lydia holds her parents hands sweat coating her body, black veins prominent. It's getting harder for her to breathe. "I'm, I'm sorry." She manages to get out and her mother shakes her head. "No dear it's okay, you didn't think this would happen it's not your fault." Her mom says and Lydia smiles grimly before her eyes close from the pain. "What's the status ?" Her father questions Harvey and he slightly shakes his head in a no manner. "Damn!" Her dad shouts walking out of the greenhouse.
They fight ruthlessly to save the girl dying back at the school. A girl who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Sky made a promise to her when they were young he would protect her and he will do just that. Cutting into the Burned one it screeches loudly while Riven goes in again stabbing it through the chest. "Duck !" Sky shouts before turning, slicing the burned ones head clean off. It falls to the ground unmoving before Sky turns his sword firmly stabbing it into the abomination over and over again. "Sky stop that's enough !" Silva says while Sky continues to stab into it screaming one last time before stopping. Taking his sword out he slings the black substance off before sheathing his sword on his back. Calling Harvey Silva waits patiently before he answers. "Thank Solaria you killed it in time, Her color is coming back and the black veins are slowly diminishing, you did it." Harvey says while Silva sighs before smiling. Hanging up he looks at Sky before smiling. "She's gonna be okay." Silva says while Sky sighs before smiling happily.
They make it back to the school and Sky rushes to the infirmary to see his best friend. Seeing Sky Lydias parents bring him into a hug. Thanking him repeatedly Sky pulls away while Sofia smiles at Sky. "She's sleeping right now, Harvey says she should wake up in a few hours." She tell him while he nods walking over to Lydias bed. Pulling back the curtain enough for him to pass through he sits down in the chair next to her bed before taking her cold hand into his. "You're okay, I told you you would be okay." Sky says while smiling softly.A couple hours have gone by and Terra has visited leaving her favorite flowers by her bed. Aisha and Musa stopped by talking to her about their day. Bloom slowly walks up to her bed before sitting down. For the most part she normal but what remains are the cuts, scratches, and bruises from being dragged through the forest. "I'm sorry about that day, I should've listened to you, taken what you had to say into consideration and I'm sorry." Bloom begins. "You were the first person o met here, and you were so nice to me and I've acted so horrible."
"I forgive you." Lydia mumbles opening her eyes. Bloom smiles and softly grasps her hand in hers. Tears fill her eyes falling down her face while Lydia smiles at her. "Hey don't cry, I'm still here, still kicking it." Lydia says while Bloom laughs while brushing her tears away. "When Terra told us what happened, we wanted to go to you but Misses. Dowling said we couldn't see you, when your parents arrived, we thought the worst but you pulled through thanks to the specialists." Bloom says and Lydia smiles before pain courses through her body. "I feel like I've been dragged through a forest, oh wait, that did happen." Lydia says sitting up with a pained sigh. "You shouldn't be moving around so much." Bloom says but Lydia ignores her. "I would like to sleep in my own bed." Lydia says while Bloom rushes around to help her. Dressed in grey sweats and a T-shirt she looks at bloom. "Whose clothes are these, I don't own a pair of these and who is AC/DC ?" Lydia wonders while bloom laughs. "Um yeah Riven gave those to me so I could change you into them." Bloom says and Lydia grimaces. "Oh okay, now my favorite little ginger please help me to our dorm." I say and Bloom helps her walk back catching the eyes of people before Riven sees her. Walking up to her Lydia looks up from concentrating on not falling in front of her peers. "Riven." Lydia quickly says before trying to go around him but he stops her. "Let me carry you back love." Riven says and Lydia looks from him to Bloom. "Im okay, thank you though." Lydia says before trying to walk away but she stumbles and Bloom tightens her hood before looking back over her shoulder at Riven. She speaks with him with her eyes before Riven carefully takes Lydia into his arms. "Let me take care of you." Riven whispers in her ear softly making Lydia blush before nodding. Carrying her back to the dorm, Bloom unfolds the bed before Riven lays Lydia down. Hissing softly Lydia readjusts herself before sighing. "I'll leave you guys alone." Bloom says while smiling at a panicking Lydia. The door shuts and Lydia bites her lip. Riven sits down on the queen sized bed looking at Lydia. They're quiet for a moment before Lydia begins to speak. "It didn't rip me apart, most attacks by the burned ones, the victims are torn apart beyond recognition. It just dragged me away from the barrier and it left me in the clearing. It circled me all night and screeched when I tried to move. The scar on my shoulder started burning first then it showed up." I babble before speaking again. "I got up and it just pushed me back down, like it was wanting me to see something, then it did..it, it showed me the fall of Solaria, than my home, skies, the whole of Other World basically." I finish while I play with my fingers and Riven just listens before standing up taking off his shoes. "What are you doing ?" I question while he walks over to the other side of my bed getting in. "That's what you're doing, why ?"
"I wanted to apologize for what I did at the party leading you to get attacked by the burned one in the first place but what were you thinking going past the barrier ?" Riven says and I sink further into my sheets not looking at him. "I didn't want to go back to the dorms, I needed to get off campus, I didn't want to ruin the grounds from my anger." I say. And he sighs sinking down to, turning on his side to look at me and I slowly do the same. "So you thought burning down the forest would help, we seen the scorched trees and burnt ground." Riven says and i grimace "That part was from trying to fight off the Burned one, and I didn't purposely try and burn down the forest, I calmed my anger before I caused a forest fire. We're not together you can go off and be with whoever you want, it just hurt my feelings that you left me at the party looking like an idiot while you went off kissing another girl and god knows what else, You said you didn't care about me to her, I heard you say that." I say and Riven closes his eyes. "I didn't mean that." He whispers looking at me before I look away. "But you still said it anyway so it holds some truth to it." I reply before I feel a sharp pain in my side sitting up I lift my shirt to see a big bruise that's black and blue. "Ow this hurts." I whisper to myself before Riven sits up looking at it before looking at more of the bruises on my body. "Turn around." Riven asks and I do just that. Seeing the dark bruises littering her back some far bigger than others his breath hitches before he lowers her shirt before carefully pulling her into a hug. "I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry." He whispers kissing a bruise on the side of her neck. Sucking in a breath she allows herself to relax into him before he pulls away and she nods. "Sleep love." Riven says and she slowly lays back down before Riven gets up grabbing a green bottle filled with pills. "Harvey says to take one every 4-6 hours for the pain, it also will help heal your bruises but but it makes you sleepy." Riven says and I nod taking the pill he hands me before drinking some water. Laying back down her eyes begin to fall before sleep takes over. Riven slowly gets back in her bed and begins to watch her sleep. He begins to doze off before his eyes open seeing her begin to mumble in her sleep. Getting closer he hears her mumbling a language he doesn't recognize before it stops and she's back asleep again. Watching her a bit longer his eyes fall before he lets sleep finally take over.
