Silvery Vision

Chapter 5

GARROTH'S POV

Aphmau, being stubborn, insisted that she get back to her house to check on Levin and Malachi.

I sighed, helping her.

When we finally got to her room, I helped her to her bed and she sat down on it, exhausted.

I stood upright. "I'll be back." I said softly. "I have to go get the others."

She nodded. "Alright." She replied quietly.

I left her in her room. I needed to get a doctor for Aaron. Andi had said that he needed more help.

I quickly ran over to Donna and Logan's house. I knocked hard and fast.

Logan answered the door. "Hey Garroth. How did the-"

"We need Donna ASAP. Aaron got hit by a sword, a poisonous one."

Logan's eyes widened and he ran inside to get Donna.

A couple minutes later, Donna rushed out with her medical kit in hand.

"Where is he?" She asked urgently.

"He's back at the portal."

Donna quickly nodded before rushing off.

I followed her. I had seen the glint in her eye, telling me that she wanted to scold me for leaving him behind but that there was no time to waste.

"What kind of sword?" She asked while we ran.

"A death sword."

She stopped in her tracks. "A d-death sword?"

I looked back at her and nodded. "Yeah. Why?"

She bit her lip. "There isn't much to do..."

"What do you mean?!"

Donna looked at me. "This was in the Nether that he got hit?"

I nodded.

Donna let out a long breath. "He won't make it." She said softly.

"What do you mean?!"

"I mean that there is nothing I can do to save him."

I stopped walking. "Nothing?"

She nodded with a sad smile. "Nothing."

I looked down.

What are we supposed to do?

Suddenly, I saw Andi with Aaron, moving towards the gate.

I rushed over and Donna followed after me.

We made it over to Andi.

When she finally noticed us, she gently set down Aaron before plopping down.

"He's heavy." She said, breathing heavily.

I nodded. "Yeah." I gave her a small sad smile.

"Well what are you waiting for?! Heal him!"

Donna sighed, frowning. "Their's nothing I can do to help him."

Andi's eyes flared a bright green. "What do you mean theirs nothing you can do to help him?" She said it in a calm voice, but her eyes said that she felt otherwise.

Donna sighed and knelt down next to Aaron. "The most I can do is slow down the poison."

Andi stood up from where she was. She walked over to a tree and started punching it.

I and Donna watched with startled eyes.

After a few minutes, she came back over and sat down. "How much can you slow it down?" She asked calmly.

Donna stared at Andi for a second before registering her question. "Oh, umm."

She opened the kit she had brought along. She pulled out a few bandages and gauzes, setting them to the side.

She pulled out a few bags full of some plant, setting them to the side. Finally, she pulled out an empty bag.

"Shoot... I'm out... We need to go to Lucinda's to get more."

Andi mumbled curses under her breath. She sighed and stood up. "Garroth, I and Donna will go to Lucinda's and get more medicine or herbs or whatever that stuff is. You bring Aaron to Aphmau's house."

I raised an eyebrow. "Aphmau will panic and won't be able to help."

Her eyes flared bright green. "Do it anyway!" She snapped at me. "Aaron's life is at stake. We can't let him die."

I nodded. "Alright. Let's go."
