Astro and Wonderman Book 4: Awakening Magic

I'm not living in a world without you

(Darkness point of view)

I looked at Loki trying not to blush. There was just something about him that made me want to be a part of the light.

I had to admit though he could be scary when he wanted to be.

"Are all you Dragonchilds this stubborn? It's such a waste" Christa said then.

"Loki, get out of the way. This was my fault. I failed them. It's my punishment. Please!" I begged to him.

"I'm not moving. Your my friend and I'm going to protect you no matter what" Loki said.

"What do you think you could possibly do?" Christa asked then.

"I've got an idea. I don't know if it will work but we could try" Pixie said then.

"I'm all for any ideas you might have for once" Loki said.

"Good. Then I'm sending our bodies back in time. To the us in our previous life" Pixie said.

"Pixie don't! You could get yourself hurt. That kind of magic requires a lot of magic energy" Loki said to Pixie.

"What choice do we have?" Pixie asked him then.

Before we knew it though a bunch of flames appeared towards us. At the bottom of the flames we saw a man with red hair and orange eyes.

"Didn't you learn to pick on people your own size?" The man spoke. His face was really scary to me though.

"Thanks. We owe you one! Come on let's go" Pixie said.

Loki picked me up bridal style and started running though.

After a few minutes we stopped to catch our breath.

"Um......Loki. Could you put me down please?" I asked blushing a really bright red.

"Huh. Oh. Sorry. I didn't realize I was still holding you" Loki said as he placed me softly on the ground. He was also blushing a little bit but he looked away trying to hide that he was.

"Awe. You two are so cute" Pixie said.

"Not the time Pixie. We need to find a way to help mom and dad. We can't do that if we're arguing" Loki told her.

"Your not really thinking about taking on Leo, Obsidian, Obsidious or someone really powerful like that are you?" I asked.

"If that's what it takes to save them. There's just something fishy going on here" Loki said.

"No! I won't let you! What if you get hurt!?" I said on the verge of tears.

Once I realized that I began to wonder what this kind of feeling was. I'd never felt it before and it was the strongest emotion I'd ever felt.

Loki looked shocked for a second and then looked away as if he wasn't sure how to reply. After a minute of what looked like him thinking he came to me. Then he wrapped his arms around me.

"I'll be fine. I've got a family to go on missions with. Even if they are annoying at times I wouldn't trade them for the world. Besides, what kind of friend would I be if I just disappeared after just meeting you" Loki smiled.

I stayed put and tried to stop myself from crying but a couple of tears still fell down.

"Please don't cry. It's not a good look for you. Your smile would light up the whole room you know" Loki added then.

"Loki.............." I said.

"If you wanted a moment all you had to do was ask" Pixie teased.
