Her book 2

18: Gone

( Song: Willow tree by Jasmine Thompson~ Its about time we check up on how Devlin and Korra are dealing with things....)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Korra's P.O.V.

Devlin and I stood on the rooftop in silence. Those hunters gave us knock out gas, so we couldn't fight them.
When Devlin and I awoke, they were gone.

She was gone.
My baby was gone.
I felt like my whole body had crumbled from the inside. Devlin's body trembled. He dropped to his knees in defeat.

My wobbly legs brought me to his side. I touched his shoulder, wanting to assure him. He turns and clutches me by the waist. His sobs tore at my aching heart. I've never, not once, seen Devlin cry. "We'll find her." I cooed. But I wasn't even sure if I believed my own words.

What if once we found her, it was too late?

The hunters left with my Layla-Fia, and I was scared. No parent wants to fear for their child's life to be taken away from them. It's supposed to be the other way around. A mother and father shouldn't have to watch their child take its last breath. But in our case, we were supposed to stay together for eternity.

I squeezed Devlin tighter in my grip.
"Don't cry Dev, please... I can't do this on my own." my voice cracked. I was near my breaking point.

He takes deep breaths before he rises back on his feet. He took me in his arms. "I will never leave you. But I made a promise... A promise that our daughter..." he stops and takes another ragged breath of despair.

"Do you have any idea where they could have taken her?" I asked.

"Yes, but getting there is the tricky part." he tells me. His face turns hard as stone. I hated it when he did that. I couldn't read his emotions.

"Where?" I almost jumped down his throat to get the truth out of him. Maybe... just maybe there was hope.

"Calm down Catulus." he flashes me his famous heart melting crooked smile. His scythe appears in his hand. It seemed to glow with life. His black cloak formed over his clothes. He slams the end of the scythe on the ground three times. I then heard the familiar neighs of a horse.

"Aboleri?" I said puzzled.

"That's a good girl." Devlin walks over to pet her snout. "Catulus, you remember how I charmed your necklace so that I could help you when your in danger?" On impulse, my hand flies up to run over the cool surface of the gold metal.
I nod my head, reminiscing over that dreadful night at club Temptation.

"Well, I did the same thing to Aboleri's Soul; I bound it to Rubris. Aboleri can track Rubris exact location. But I have a hint on where she might be." he informs me.

"Where!" I wanted to jump down his throat and pull the answer out. "On hunters Island."
"An island? Well how hard can that be?" I said.

Devlin waves his hand and a chariot appeared on Aboleri's saddle. It was ironically in the shape of a skull. "Trust me Catulus, it's pretty tricky to locate the island exactly." he said. He helps me up on the chariot.
"We could even risk our lives for this." he continues. "But she's worth it." I add in a serious tone.
"Agreed," he says with a earnest smile. "Where is this hunters island anyways?" I asked.

"Its in the heart of the Bermuda Triangle." he says while getting on. I watched him grab the reins with determination.
The Bermuda Triangle is not a friendly place in the sea. I hoped to God my Layla-Fia was alright. What were those hunters doing to her? Would she be okay once we get there. What if we didn't make it?
