MARCY'S POV
It has been a strange morning for Marcy. They discovered Anne has blue powers, they fell in another world and now they're drinking tea made of water lilies in a tent, with two newts tall like humans. And they can talk. And they're married.
Sasha is looking at the two newts with her mouth wide opened, she dropped her jaw as soon as she saw the newts.
Marcy's the one strangely calm for the absurd situation.
-So you're telling me our friend, Anne...- Marcy says, calm. The tallest newt, of a bring pink that's almost red, nods and interrupts Marcy.
-The Power's host.-
-...her. She's searched by Andrias, who's a crazy king who wants to conquer everything. Right? And Adrias is searching for other two...temples... where the other Powers are hidden. Right?- The smallest newt, called Olivia, nods.
-That's right, human. And we're the rebellion, the group of frogs, toads and newts that fight against Andrias. Now that you've come here, we absolutely have to find where your friend is. Adrias could have already trapped her.- Sasha swallows hearing Olivia, she stands up all of sudden.
-No!- She says out loud, almost slamming the cup of tea on the table.
-I refuse to believe it!- Marcy's less romantic, she doesn't say anything to calm down Sasha's shouts because they know that the newts could be right.
If a crazy king sent robots from another world...he's able to trap Anne too. Maybe she's in danger, Marcy realises with a hint of fear. They can't lose Anne, they think. No, Marcy, calm down. You won't lose her.
-How did Adrias sent the robots to our world?- Marcy asks. They had this doubt in mind since they listened to the newts. -If he needs all the three Powers to activate the engine and travel through worlds, how did he sent the robots?-
-The Calamity Box works also with only one Power, but it can't let the portal opened for too much time. That's how Adrias used it. It opened the portal for a few seconds, the time to send you the robot that attacked you and the robot that injected Anne with the Power.- Yunan answers Marcy. Sasha slams her palm of the hand against the table.
-We have to stop him!- Olivia's eyes narrows as she scolds Sasha with only one gaze.
-Calm down, young lady. We know we have to. But we have to plan our moves with wisdom. Think, humans. We have a plan but we need your help. The Powers can be hosted by different people. If...- Marcy understands Olivia's idea, stands up.
-If we find the Powers and use them, Adrias won't be able to manipulate Anne! We just have to...- Sasha interrupts them.
-Are you crazy? Do your truly trust them?- She points at the two newts, Marcy frowns.
-What? Why not?- They ask, sharp, of course Sasha's complaining. Again.
-Why not, Marcy? Why not? Because maybe they're Andrias' allies! You don't know, you can't know!- Marcy rolls her eyes.
-Come on, Sasha! That's a stupid point of view! We have no other ideas, this isn't our world, this isn't our people, we don't know how things work! They do!- They end, angry, pointing at the two newts. Sasha grabs their wrist.
-Let's talk about it outside.- She whispers, as mad as Marcy. They exit the tent without a word, both Olivia and Yunnan are too scared by their anger to say anything.
-Sasha, you're acting stupid!- Marcy frees her wrist, makes a step behind. Sasha rolls her gaze to the sky, snorts in nervousness.
-I am not, Marcy!- Marcy frowns.
-Then why you're doing all this drama?- Sasha points at the tent.
-Think, Marcy! They want us to take a Power we don't know what it is, they want us to do whatever they want to do! We have to stick together and to not trust anyone, ok?- Marcy shakes their head. No, they don't agree.
-Damn, no, no Sasha. You're not doing all this drama because you think they'll trap us, but because you want to save Anne by yourself! You always want to do what you want, without any help!- Marcy doesn't stop their words, they don't care about Sasha's shocked expression.
They have never talked like this before. Sasha raises both her eyebrows, sceptical.
-That's all? Huh? You don't want me to be in the lead? You think I act by myself? It's obvious, I want to save Anne. The problem is not me, it's that you want to live your precious dream of being in a magical world!- Marcy flinches. Those words hurt worse than a deep wound. THAT'S NOT TRUE!! They scream in their head, without saying out loud.
Sasha doesn't understand how much they care about Anne. She's only mean because she wanted always Anne for her, and her only.
-Yeah, Sasha.- They say, sarcastic. They cross their arms. -You are scared because you don't know what's happening. And you still don't want to let it go! You can't guide this operation, you can't be the leader! This time we won't do what you order!!- Marcy whispers the last words, furious.
Sasha's eyes wide open, she takes a fast breath.
-Fine.- When she talks, her voice is way too calm. -You know what? I'll do it by myself, then. You're not worthy my help.- Marcy blushes strong.
-And you're not worthy a team! Go alone, I'm challenging you! You'll be back in a few hours, coward.- They both crossed the line. Why in the world they are so mad? Marcy feels a hint of pain, grief for what they said. But they're not apologizing if Sasha won't do it, first.
Sasha doesn't. She ignores Marcy as they just disappeared, she turns behind and starts walking, far from the base.
Marcy looks at her with still their arms crossed on the chest, sure she'll be back soon.
Sasha doesn't return. Marcy waits for her all the evening, till the sunset. Sasha's gone, Marcy realises. They're alone.
-Human!- Yunan exits the tent behind them, comes closer to Marcy sitting in the grass.
-Where's the other with golden hair?- Marcy shakes their head.
-Gone.- Yunan flinches, makes a silent oh with her lips but says nothing.
-I agree with your plan, general...- Marcy dries the tears that soaked their cheeks before standing up so Yunan didn't notice them crying.
Marcy turns to the newt.
-I'll save Anne. We'll go for the Powers we have left.- Yunan nods.
-You're brave, human...- Marcy interrupts her.
-Marcy. My name's Marcy.- They force their face to smile but it's harder than usual. Yunan point at the tent behind them.
-Come on, me and Olivia will explain you how things work here.- Marcy follows her inside the tent, they stop only one second, turning behind where Sasha's gone.
Then, they enter the tent and close it behind their back.
