Fiery Heart

Coming Back

Elsa's P.O.V.

We arrived at Pompeii where Phoenix's aunt lived. Phoenix had told us all about her years living there and described them as tough, fun days. Then the horror came when I remembered that Phoenix's aunt lived in a volcano. Mt. Vesuvius to be exact. Jack and I couldn't go up to a volcano, dormant or not. Anna was a regular human being so neither could she. We had to wait until aunt Kestrel came down. But that would take forever. "Where should we go?" I asked Jack. He found an open space and pointed to. I followed his finger and so did Anna. He flew there and gently placed Phoenix on the ground.

"Work your magic."

I placed my hands on her chest and slowly I felt her coming back to life. My eyes glowed and I felt my body getting lighter. A few seconds before the magic was done, I felt great fatigue. I felt as if I couldn't go on anymore. But I had to do it. For my sister. I mustered up the last bit of strength I had in me and used it all up when I felt Phoenix's chest begin to move again. I took my shivering hands away from her chest and breathed heavily. My glowing eyes went back to normal as I relaxed myself.

"Are you alright?" Jack asked. I couldn't quite make out his words when he said them due to fatigue but after a few seconds they registered in my head. He looked at me concerned. I was feeling really dizzy and I knew that he could tell.

"Yeah. I'm fine. Just a little tired. That's all." Phoenix slowly opened her eyes and at that moment I felt great relief. She was back to normal. I knew this because those fiery red eyes were no longer there.

"Where am I?" she asked slowly. She was still regaining consciousness.

"Pompeii," I replied wearily. I was getting more and more tired by the minute.

"Why are we here?"she asked. I couldn't take this question so Jack answered instead.

"We wanted to heal you by getting you to aunt Kestrel but then remembered that she lived on a volcano so we decided to heal you ourselves," he explained.

"But none of you have the ability to heal."

"That's what you think," Jack hinted. He looked at me and have a glorious smile. I smiled back a faint smile. Anna was just looking at Phoenix in awe and happiness.

"Thank you, Elsa," Phoenix said to me gratefully.

"It's the least a sister could do." That was when I didn't have any strength left in me. My legs gave in and I couldn't feel my arms. Jack saw me and with wide eyes he ran to me. That was the last thing I remember before I passed out.
