"Stop!"

The Grand Magus of the Aeolian clan was able to grab Grime Hullo's right wrist and stopped him from entering the circle of burning light that surrounded Rahel.

"Let me go." Grime Hullo said as he looked at Addy. "We need to get out of here."

"I understand but we cannot move Rahel yet until the circle of burning light dies down."

"Come on, the fire is less than an inch high."

"You think." The Grand Magus of the Aeolian clan said. "Do you have anything in your pocket?"

Grime Hullo searched inside the pockets of his pants and he found a coin.

"Will this do?" Grime Hullo showed him a coin.

"Yes." Addy replied. "Throw it in the circle."

The Kentauros did as he was told and when the coin crossed the line where the fire was it went into flames, and in seconds, it disintegrated into ashes.

"Imagine the coin is you crossing the burning light."

Grime Hullo then understood how perilous it was. He then looked around and saw that Gaelic was still unconscious. He then looked at the other young man, he too, was still out cold.

"How long for the fire to burn out?"

"Not long." Addy replied.

As the seconds went by, Grime Hullo was becoming more restless. He kept a watchful eye at Gaelic that he did not see right away that a shadow of man emerged from the rooftop of the adjacent building where they were.

"The fire is almost gone." The Grand Magus of the Aeolian.

"It is about time."

"Why?"

"Look!" Grime Hullo said as he saw the young man near Gaelic began to stir. "I think he is waking up."

The Grand Magus of the Aeolian clan looked at where the Kentauros was pointing out.

"I think you are right." Addy began to say. "Not only that, we have another company."

"Where?"

"There!" Addy pointed out at man standing at the edge of the rooftop of the other building.
