The Light (Book 4 of the Lost Brother)

Chapter 9: Gone

Pine Tree POV

"Tori!" I gasp. I manage to get the piece of wood off of me and crawled over to Tori. "Tori?" I ask gently shaking her. Then I saw it. A piece of wood had came and impaled her. I held Tori in my arms, "Tori I'm so sorry." I cried. Then I heard some crying. I turn and I could see the nephew hugging his arm and crying. He was bleeding on the head, nose, and he was burn everywhere and his arm didn't look too good. I could see the bone popping out over the open burn skin.

Then I look at the niece who was still asleep, because of the spell. She was also burn and bleeding. At least she was still asleep so she couldn't feel the pain.

I kiss Tori on the forehead, "I love you my love." Then I close her eyes and laid her on the floor. Then I crawled over to the nephew. "Hey! Calm down. I can help." I said gently. Then I wave my hand and I healed his arm. Not all the way. The burn I couldn't heal but I manage to heal the broken burn and some of the missing skin. "See! Better." I smiled. The nephew looked at me. I'm guessing he was still thinking either to thank me or hit me. "I can't heal the burn. It is too powerful in dark magic. Dark magic can't heal very easily." I added.

Then a figure came around the hole in the wall. It was a fire demon. It roared, "Ppppine Treeee. Wwwwhhhere is cciiippphher?" I tighten my fists, "Get lost!" I then form a blue flame from my hand and throw it at the demon. The demon cried out since I hit him in the eye, and he raise his hand and the building was starting to fall apart. I cover the nephew as parts of the building started to fall on us. I then wave my hand and the niece flew over here. Then I grab both of them and we disappeared. I made us appear in my part of the house.

"Daddy!" I heard a voice called out. Then I saw Mabelle and Trim. They were hugging each other. "Kids." I gasp. Then they came and hug me. "Where is mommy?" Mabelle ask. I didn't know what to say, "Um don't worry about her." I said. "We are going to leave now to the escape pods." I got up, carrying the niece. "Trim help...Ford...and keep you sister close. Got it?"

"Yes father." Trim then grab Ford's hand and his sister. Then we all headed to the pods. Then right before we got there Mr. Trink and some men came up and stop us. "Well isn't it Pine Tree escaping." He sneers.

"Trink what is the meaning of this." I snap.

Mr. Trink gave a dark smile, "You see Pine Tree I want the throne."

"Don't we all?" I rolled my eyes.

"The point is...this time I'm going to get it. You see I never belong in The Light nor here. I've got my own group. The fire demons are under my control...I'm their right hand man."

I rolled my eyes, "Great a traitor is a double traitor."

"And I know that Mabel's two kids, the ones that you have right now, have the richest magic to stop them...well they could be used full for us."

"You wouldn't dare." I sneer.

"Try me." Mr. Trink snickered. Then he snaps his fingers and the man started to come towards us, "You see Pine Tree these men are fire humans...they aren't human like you but they aren't demons like their masters. Have fun dealing with them."

I gave a dark smirk, "Trim."

Trim gave a dark smile and hiss showing his fangs. Then he attacked one of them. I then laid the niece down and I threw a fire ball at one of them. There were four men in total. Well the one I threw a fire ball at one of the men he absorbed it then he threw a more powerful fire ball at me. I block it. Then he came and jumps at me but then a powerful force hit him and he fell to the ground. I turn and could see Ford. He had done that.
