The Fallen Rises 2, The Power Pendants

Chapter 9 He needs you, and I think you needed him too

WhileGlen and Alina brought Charles to his home, feeling down Axe never spoke toLucas, Bushin, Skylar and his team sticked with him as always, while Jordansits beside Lynn by the river, feeling pitiful for him. Casper and Terranjoined along and sat with them. 10 minutes later Lynn wonders where Sid was,then Casper answered, "She's busy with other things." Lynn becomes suspiciousof him when she saw him smiling too much. And then she figured out "I knew it""Knew what?" he stuttered "I know you have a crush on her even up till now"Casper's face turned red and hides it. Jordan then walks to Casper and tellshim to have a little conversation with him. Meanwhile Commander Kaius did whatRigel Rogue asked. He gave the info to Ven Kage and as he was studying it, hesees more than what's on the page itself. He also learned something else iscoming for them "We have to go now!" Ven yelled with urgency "Wait what's goingon" Kaius questioned. While packing Kaius' weapons Ven starts answering "He iscoming for them, and he is very hungry for power" Who was it?" Kaius questioned"An Enemy I knew for a long time during the war is here to consume them. Hisname is Damian Devil, and I don't know how he'" "Man I thought he died weeksago" Commander Kaius eventually realizes he's after Glen, so he zooms to thepod turns it on and maximizes the speed to go to earth before Damian does. Abovethe tree branches Jordan tries to convince Casper to Confess Sid his feelingsfor her, but he refuses multiple times. Until that moment Sid found them, byhearing their argument. "Hey guys" her voice shocked him so hard he almostfell, thankfully Sid saved him from hitting the ground using her ghostlypowers. Casper appears to be on her arms and immediately faints. Sid getsconfused there, then she turns to Jordan "Is he alright?" he told her that heusually does that, but Sid founds out why. She then brings him to the groundgently. Lynn while feeling a little bad throws a rock on river. She thoughtshe'd be happy that her school was already fixed, instead something else wasringing inside her head, then she heard Casper who gained consciousness talkingto Jordan saying "Ok fine, but hey you're gonna go talk to Lynn right" Casperpersuaded Jordan to go to Lynn, so he did. Lynn smiles but her mood wasn'tlightened up when Jordan came. "Hi" she greeted with sadness "Hey" Jordangreeted back. As Lynn sees her scars, she had thoughts that are stuck insideher head. It hurts her bad that she could even feel their pain. Jordan sat nextto her, and he said "Don't worry about it I'm sure they'll understand" Lynnturns her head away and respond "It's not that" Jordan later stays quiet sothings won't get even worse for Lynn as he gives her time to calm down, andafter 5 seconds she said "I didn't say anything to them because the truth is, Idon't want my dad and Freddie to worry about me, I didn't want anyone to worryabout me when I fight my own battles. Even you. I just don't want you all toget hurt. I don't want to get hurt either" Despite not having any visionsJordan could feel her pain by knowing what she's been through since she left,and then he speaks kindly, "You know... I can relate. I was always hiding myemotions from my mom because I didn't want her to worry as well. It also hurtsme when I lied to Glen about his biological father." Jordan wrapped his legswith his arms, and he takes his time. Something hits Lynn and makes her realize"I get it now." "What?" She reaches to the sky as she talks "Despite all yourefforts in protecting those you know and love, you'll only lose them instead."Eventually Lynn noticed "And I am thinking, you're so worried about Glen somuch that you were looking after him like a big brother, just like you lookafter Emily. Although you taught him well." You also lie to your mom becauseyou don't want her to feel upset. But there I now know, it's not wrong to opento others when you need to" Jordan throws a rock to the river, and then hementioned his plan "I also went to Highlands Horizon just to see you." "Why?"Lynn asks. Jordan threw another rock to the river he answered, "I thought thatas we grow apart for a long time, we won't remember each other as friendsanymore. Guess I just missed you" Lynn looks at Jordan first, then looks downas she replied "It's ok. I miss you too." Lynn holds onto Jordan's hand andkisses him on his lips. He didn't know what just got him, but he just froze forabout 3 seconds. "I knew it!" Glen's loud voice surprised Jordan, making himblush and yell in denial "Glen She's not My girlfriend" Lynn looks away and chuckleswhen Glen teases him about it. Lucas behind the trees watches the three havinga good time, he smiles seeing their friendships despite their arguments, then suddenlya familiar dull voice from behind called him "Hey Lucas" he turns around andsees Lydia glancing on the tree. Lucas closed his fist tightly like he had theurge to punch her, but he knows better than that, so he tries to speak "Well, Ifinally get to see you sis after a long time" "So all I have to say now is I'mglad you're here, and sorry for fighting you a while ago in Highlands Horizon."Lydia finished as she walked straight to Lucas and hugs him replying "I'm happyto see you too" Seconds after their reunion Axe felt glad not just because hefound Lydia's brother, but he brought them back together like he promised Lucas.2 Hours ago, Axe was able to reach Lydia's signal in the sphere ship,emotionless she got the call from her friend and answered it. "What do you wantAxe" Axe on the phone sighs and starts talking "I learned about what you'vebeen through since your mom passed away. But leaving like this doesn't make itany better" Lydia holds the hologram, throws it and she said, "It's too lateAxe I lost everyone you don't know what it feels like" Lydia paused for 5seconds to stay focused on the mission and she yelled again "Unlike you I losteveryone" Axe said in a tranquil tone "No it's not you didn't lose everyone youcared about, he needs you now and I think you needed him too" All surprisedLydia thinks it's impossible she froze like a statue for a while and havesecond thoughts thus going back home to see her brother and friend. After Axehad a little flashback, he found Lydia standing in front of him trying to atleast talk. He takes one glare at her, and he said rudely "I hope your happyLydia, it's not like you had a good time when I'm around" after that Axe leftjust like she did. Lydia looked down and punched the ground while trying tohide her tears. Lucas' smiled disappeared seeing them reunite but in a reallyupsetting way, he's just as sad as Lydia was seeing Axe's anger in his face.
