"I-I tried to handle eveything myself..."I mumbled as Aella and Erik stabbed at Imps, making them turn into piles of dust. "I... didn't want to hurt the little guys, or wake you up. But... I guess I failed at both. That and being the leader here."I kept my head down, staring at my stupid broken ankle.
"Hey, dude. We all make mistakes- like that time when.... okay, I can't think of a specific time, but you get the idea."Erik stabbed the last one with his sword, the little imp turned to a pile of ash.
"Besides, were all just some kids that Jade gave an adventure to fullfil, and they don't even believe in us. But were gonna prove them wrong, dead wrong."Loona smiled, she was right.
"We should get back to sleep, I'll take watch? Since someone didn't do their job properly."Aella looked over at Erik, who rolled his eyes.
Aella sat at the door of the train car, staring at the horizon. I was glad to have her on my team. I was glad to have everyone here on my team. Erik for his positivty and sarcasm mixed into one, Loona for her chillness, Aella for her great fighting skills along with her wits. And then there was me... broken ankle, missing sister, just some mess of a guy, really. I looked back at Erik, he was carving the date into a stone. Why?
I must've fallen asleep while thinking... which wasn't so good, since sleeping meant dreams.... I "woke up" running away from something in my mom's old house. Behind me, I see a giant creature. Completely black in colour with millions of eyes, and tons of legs. I jumped over our old coffee table, but the creature kept getting closer... and closer...and closer... until- The dream shifted.
I could see third-person view into a huge room, it had flames and an iron cage hung up in the sky, seemingly coming out of the red sky. Inside the cage, sat Ellisse, shivering... she seemed so scared. I wanted to grab her then and there, and hold her in my arms, never let my poor little sister go. But then, I hear someone yell out to my sister, "Ah, daughter of Mammon... seems like you have time to spare."
I woke up, Loona shook my shoulder, "Were here."
