Birds of Legends Chapter 12

Chapter 12
The water feels cool against my face as I dive under. For the first tile in a while I dont feel anything. I open my eyes under water. Strange. I feel like I can breathe. I take a breathe. No water enter my mouth. I feel a presents behind me. I turn around, only to find a faded white figure.
"Rav. Seems you lost your flying skills." The figure jokes.
"Allen!" I shout, smiling.
"Aoi love."
"Whats going on?" I ask.
"I'm telling you, that you cant give up. Theses people need you."
"But I needed you."
"I know."
He talks to for a while. It seems like I couldn't stop. Seeing him again made my heart burst.
"I must go." He says
"I know."
I stand up, watching my chances of a normal life fade away.
I take a breathe. The sun blinds my face as i open my eyes.
I walk out of the water, pulling of my clothes to replace them with some spars hidden in the trees. I walk into camp, throwing my wet clothes into a pile on my bed. No one seems to be theirselves. Their lost in their grieving. I sit down on my bunk, pulling my knees to my chest. Robin sighs before speaking.
"We need go keep going. Allen would have wanted it."
We all nod, not wanting to speak.
I lie back on my bed, staring into space. I dont notice the sun sets until i look outside. I get out of bed and walk over, standing alone. I watch as the flames devour my normal life.
"They need you."
What Allen told me keeps running through my head.
"They need you."
"They need you."
"I need you."
"I know."
The flames reflect in my eyes. My hatred grows with the flames.
