Planet Suibom BOOK 1

Hue's Choice

Paul and Hue rushed down the stairs with Rose-ann, George, and Joey following behind. "Stay close, kids." Paul said, holding his daughter's hand. As they almost got to the ground floor, they heard a huge shattering noise coming from the room they were previously in. "It must've escaped!" But then there was another loud noise, and huge CRASH! and someone scream. Suddenly, they saw Emma running up the stairs.

Hue caught her by the arm, stopping her. "There you are! Where are your friends?" He yelled over the noises all around them.

"Cairry's downstairs, she's healing people with Luqaax, or...at least they're trying their best!" Emma shouted.

"You're coming with me!" Hue said.

"What!? No!"

"Yes!"

"No! Izayay's in trouble and I need to help him!"

"Get someone else to do i-"

"Izayay!?" Rose-ann and Paul exclaimed. "Where is he!?" Paul cried, getting closer to Emma. "Where is my son!? What's happened to him!?"

"I need to go and find him!" Emma said.

"Already f-found him!" Joey stuttered, pointing up at the stairs above. Everyone looked up and saw the bunny hanging over the staircase, only his hands were holding on. Above him towered his older brother Dalton.

"Please, Dalton, I can help you!" They heard Izayay cry. He hadn't seen them yet. Emma called out his name, turning his attention to them. "Rose-ann!? What are you still doing here!?"

"We were attacked and we saved Hue from Dusk!" She responded.

"From Dusk!? Where is he?"

"Not far behind." Paul said.

"Why aren't you getting Rose-ann out of here!?" Izayay frowned at his father. "You're her father!"

"And I'm also yours."

Izayay was silent as he looked back up at Dalton. Maybe, just maybe, Dalton would remember his father. He had been a teenager the last time he saw him. There was possibility his father was still recognizable to him. "Dalto-"

As Izayay was about to call his brother's name, there was a sudden CRACK! sound coming from the stairs. Izayay watched as the cracks in the stairs surrounded him. Dalton's face became puzzled as he sensed the fear washing over Izayay. He looked behind his brother, down at his father, the king, Emma, and the kids. He recognized Emma, but not his father. "You!" He yelled.

"No! Dalton!" Izayay cried. As his older brother started moving, the cracks got larger and he felt the staircase fall apart. Hue forced Paul and the young ones to move along. When he tried pulling Emma down the staircase with them, she wouldn't budge.

As Izayay, Dalton, and most of the staircase began to fell, Hue and the others began to make a run for it. Except Emma, who stayed put. She watched as Izayay began to fall towards the ground. She looked around, hoping to find Peter, or Dani, or Alex, or someone who would do better at what she was about to do.

As Izayay came hurdling to the ground, Emma started running to where he would land. She twisted her tails together and took a huge leap, getting in a cannonball position. "God, I hope this doesn't break my tails." She said to herself. She focused all her magic onto her tails, hoping her plan would work. She landed tail first onto the ground then rocketed back up. She had used her tails as a spring. She didn't care about the pain going through her lower body at that moment, all that mattered was that she stretched her arms out wide enough for Izayay to grab onto. "Izayay!" She called.
