Aura's POV

"-er- up!"

As I was starting to wake up, I could hear people running into the room I was in.

My eyes weren't adjusted to the light. Suddenly the light went dim. I opened my eyes again to see the group of people that got us out of there, all surrounding me. As I sat up I noticed I was feeling a lot better.

"Aura?" I jerked my head up at the sound of my name. One of the guys was crouched next to me. "Are you feeling alright?"

I tried to sit up, but one of them started to hold out his hand. "Wait a minute before you try to start moving. You'll have to stay where you are for now, but we got your friends into their correct healing pods." Healing pods? I moved my arm, only to feel water when I moved it slightly. I looked down and saw a bluey sort of tint. "Where am I ?" I said it so softly, I wasn't sure they'd be able to hear it.

"You're on our ship." Poseidon said "We are heading to my sister's ship. I will say this, we missed you Aura." I looked at him confused, before sitting up so I'm sitting with my legs crossed. "Here, let me give you some water."

Poseidon passed me some water. I took a few sips before handing it back, for him to put it down on a table nearby. "Where is Chase?" Poseidon pointed towards the pod that Chase was in. "He has lightning in that pod, but because we are only usually using water healing pods, it isn't as strong as other ships. So his is taking a little bit longer." I looked over and definitely noticed that he was taking a while. I glanced over where Autumn was at and she seemed like she was healing almost as fast as me.

"We have a way for Chase to speed up a bit, but I would like to ask if you have an older sibling? Do your cousins have any siblings?" I nodded my head at both the questions. "They were sent off the island." My voice is still really quiet. He nodded. "Well, we are currently going to my sister's ship, which will help Chase with his healing. But we also know your sibling and your cousins' siblings are also on the ship. Is it alright if Chase gets transferred to my sister's ship? She has a better lightning healing pod for Chase." I looked over at Chase, he did seem like he wasn't being as healthy Autumn and I are getting.

'Aqua are you there?' I asked. 'I am here. We can trust them.' I heard Aqua quietly say. 'I will say this healing water is helping both of us, listen to the men in front of us. Whether we need to get out of the healing water or we are suppose to stay here until we are more healthy.'

Kano's POV

We wait for Aura's answer. As we were waiting, I could tell that she was talking to her dragon. The way her eyes were dilating slightly showing a dragon eye and then returning to her normal eye. Aura focused back to us. "It is alright." Aura softly said. "You should rest a little bit more, when we meet up with Aunt Freya's ship." I told her. She really looked like she needed some sleep. She nodded before curling up in the water. She was out like a light. We noticed she moved her face so her mouth is facing into the water.

"Let's let her sleep. Ace can you check up on Autumn, Kai stay with Aura, and Kano can you check up on Chase. I'll see how far we are from the coordinates." Father told us. We all nodded and headed to the people we were assigned. I went over to the side of Chase's healing pod, where there was another monitor next to the pod. They were there to show the progress of the healing.

He seems to be doing way better, but I think it would be better if we get him onto Aunt Freya's ship. Although I think he should wake up soon, so he isn't freaked out when we get him moved. "Father, how far are we to Aunt Freyr's ship?" Ace asked. "We will be there in an hour and a half. Kano try to wake Chase real quick to explain what is happening and Ace do the same for Autumn."

I went in front of Chase's healing pod and started tapping slightly at the glass. This is how we usually wake up anyone in this type of healing pod. I saw that Chase woke up slightly, before flinching awake. Before he started panicking, I started waving my hand to show him I'm here. "Hey, hey. Calm down, it's me. Aura and Autumn are both here. I don't know if you can see them, but they are behind me." I told Chase. He seemed to calm down greatly. "Before you say anything, we are heading somewhere that will give you much more help healing. We are going to take you to my Aunt's ship. She has a better healing pod for you." Chase took a while to process what I said, before I also saw his dragon talking to him in his mind. Chase came back and nodded.

"Get some more sleep, I'll see if you are better by the time we meet up. Do you want me to wake you up when we transfer you?" I asked Chase. "Please, wake me." Chase said raspy. I nodded my head before letting him sleep. He seemed more at peace when he wasn't unconscious.
