Bring me Back to Life

Part 2 of the collab

"No."

Quake looked up to Thunderstorm, alarmed. "What?"

Thunderstorm's furious expression did not waver. "I said no," he growled, clearly torn between distress and anger. "You're a leader, Earthquake. What you're doing now is risking the entire balance between life and death! I don't care what you think, because I'm not agreeing to this."

Quake crossed his arms, glaring at the spirit. The world around them was reduced to stark white, but both their figures were solid and clear.

"Do you even know what's happening after you died? How Cyclone grieved? How he nearly killed himself?" Quake snapped. "You didn't deserve to die! I'm fixing that mistake!"

"Are you doing this for Cyclone, or for yourself?"

Quake fell silent.

"I don't care what happens. I'm dead, Quake. I can't interfere with the living." Thunderstorm's voice turned soft. "I moved on. You two should too."

The former elemental turned on his heels, walking back to where he came from. Quake tried to catch up, but he slammed into a barrier. The wall between death and life.

"I'm bringing you back!" Quake promised to Thunderstorm's disappearing silhouette. "You hear me? I'M BRINGING YOU BACK!"

But the spirit did not turn back, nor did he stop to consider Quake's words. He faded into the other side, and their connection stuttered to a halt, crashing Quake back to the land of reality.

Quake blinked, noticing that he was lying on his bed. His fists were clenched, fingers drawing blood from his palm.

It's not a dream.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Have you ever imagined a dream that made you think that you were actually awake inside and experienced like it was reality? It starts out with a feeling of confusion, wonder and caution. A variety of mixed feelings conjured into one. And in the end, it will crawling in your spine and yell out at you telling that you experiencing a nightmare. Dreams can be scary when your conscious suddenly detached from reality and never came back.

And Quake almost experienced it.

Quake sat up from the bed he was lying on, sweat immensely dripping down on his forehead. He moved to the edge of his wooden bed and positioned his feet to meet the the wooden floor that made a resounding creak.

Whoever brought him to his room must have witnessed him breaking down from his despair and immediately took action in taking him to his bedroom after Quake wailed himself to sleep.

His question was answered when he heard an faint audible snoring emanating in his own room. He glanced around with barely any illumin-ation and saw Solar peacefully sleeping on a chair. His head was hung low and figured he must have been keeping a close eye out on their parent figure.

Quake was silent and stayed there, unmoving from his spot ever since he woke up. He glanced to his alarm clock, which he disabled the alarm to sound off when it hits its time stamp.

4:00 AM.

It wasn't a surprising event. After Thunder's death, he'd woke up at an unexpected time, whether be day or night, he woke with a groggy feeling.

He affixed his look on Solar once again. And after debating on whether or not he would make his way towards him or not, the choice is still here.

Well, there's no right and wrong answers. So, why not waking him up? Besides... He had some reasons and plans in mind for him. After, Quake slowly and nearly stumble to Solar, he gently shook him while mumbling his name out too. He repeats before his sibling about to wake up, drowsily.
