Out of touch [REMASTERED]

The final fight part 2

Alex was sharpening his sword thinking if Gene made it there well. He was thinking. How could they take down such a powerful entity? How could they save humanity. Alex sometimes doubts the team and himself, his abilities to lead, to protect, he's scared of becoming a king if he can't even protect his little team. His thought was interrupted by Flavio.

"We need to talk"

"I have nothing to say to you"

"You don't need I'll talk you just listen"

Alex got up and looked at him. That intimidating look. Well not really Alex's just resting his face. He's tired and Honestly so done with Flavio

"I know you and I aren't the best of friends.."

"You bolted at me and tried to fucking kill me the last time I saw you, all because you couldn't get over the fact that Gene doesn't want you. So no Flavio we aren't even BUDDIES"

"I know and I'm sorry...look I just wanted to say that whatever happens I'm glad you at least gave me a chance to redeem myself, you could have had me executed on the spot" He said, Alex looked at him with an expression that somewhat seemed like he's sorry for the guy.

"Don't..im not that cruel and let's focus on something else. Do you have a plan?"

"Erembour can be trapped in his book again. But I can't do it alone.." he said looking over at Twinkle

"You say she can help?"

Flavio nodded. They noticed the girl picking up the drone and talking to it. She must be talking with Gene. After a while she came back happy

"Well what's gotten you this happy?"  Alex asked

"Gene told me he'll take me to the north to see the aurora borealis! I can't wait" she said flying happily

Alex laughed and felt good to know that Gene is fine since Twinkle talked to him. He went to Ruby and sat next to her

"Are you ok?" He asked

"Honestly...not really..." she admited

Alex gave her one of his 'im listening' looks, indicating that she can ramble about what's bothering him. Ruby sighs and gets in a better position

"It's just, him and i have been through shit,I thought at one point that I've made him lose his life when the ship caught on fire and he was no where to be found, I feel bad i can't be there for him the way he was for me, I can't help him. It took me so long to build something with him only for him to close off again i don't understand what am I doing wrong?!" She asked

Alex looked at her, he was feeling bad

"It's not you Ruby" he said

"What?"

"It's..how do I put this..Gene's mind is loud to bear for him. He's got a lot going on and knowing too much can fuck you up so bad. He tries to get closer but it's like someone always drags him down and he shuts back down so no we are not at fault. He sees we are trying, it's him who can't"  Alex explained. He got up and,stretched giving Ruby his hand

"Are you ready for the battle of your life?" He asked

She took his hand and let him lift her up

"Fuck yeah, let's kick some wizard ass!" She said.

Alex gathered all of them to finally set a plan down

"Ok so, he never comes alone and his little minions are so fucking fast,Ruby and I could keep them off, Twinkle and Flavio can start the ritual to trap Erembour."

"How we will get him in our trap?" Ruby asked.

Alex sat and thought about it. "Ok change of plans" Alex said

"To get Erembour to them we need something that will force him to come to us.." he said

"You can capture Baba Cara" Flavio spoke

The three looked at him

"Baba Cara is his wife isn't she? If we capture her he'll come to us" he explained

They all listened to him

"So, Alex, and Ruby can distract the shadows. I can capture Baba Cara and then Twinkle and I can start on the incantation. Baba Cara is weak to grey magic so it's easy to capture her" Flavio said

"Then it's settled" Alex said, before he could get up the sky turned the same shade it has turned when Gene was captured. They are coming

Time to save the world
