When everyone had gathered around the table, Virgo bragged about Sven — son of Apollo liking you — Karmic, But Karmic changed the subject with blush on her cheeks.
When the supper was over, Leo called Karmic pointing something behind her back, or should I say someone.
Leo and others hastily left them, and Virgo sent a wink towards them before she joined her boyfriend inside.
Before Karmic could ask Sven, he asked her if she wants to go out with him? Karmic flushed, "Sure," "cool! So tomorrow?"He asked and gets a nod from the girl.
After the small talked, she walked inside joining the others.
The next day, which is Saturday. Karmic woke up an hour before dawn. She dressed quickly, when she heard the voice of Sven downstairs. To her relief there was no Virgo. She heard footsteps, so she quickly grabs Sven's hand and slipped out of the house.
As they strolled off, she could feel Sven's eyes on her, blushed about it.
She heard a chuckle coming to him, "cute."
After chatting for a few minutes, they are walking towards the seaside but karmic saw a ranch. Karmic hurried to the fence for a closer look. A little mare, herded to the fence. Both stroked the sleek nose of the mare, but the mare shook her head, cause them to laugh.
Sven held her hand and start to run near at the seaside to watch the sunset. Karmic admired Sven, he likes a beautiful symphony that she wants to hear that makes her heart calm. Like a sunset mysterious but beautiful.
As soon as it was dusk, Sven invited her to his house, "I will cook dinner or we can order pizza if you want."she nodded to his suggestion.
It was dark, when they arrived at his house. He turned on the light, and she followed him inside. Sven went in to the kitchen; she shyly followed him. She saw a huge stone fireplace. And also, there was a deep window. All furnitures were old-fashioned.
"You have a lovely place!" Karmic exclaimed.
"Really? Glad you like it, maybe someday you we like to stay here," Sven suggested, as their already entered to the kitchen. "Until that time comes."
After they ate and talk a little, Sven suggested to sleep for a while to his bed when he saw that the girl stifled a yawn. No funny business intended.
After midnight she woke up suddenly, startled by the noise of thunder. She saw Sven standing outside the balcony, "Get ready the last test are coming" after he said that, the place got deadly silent.
Suddenly there was a growing rumble, until the grounds jolted. Sven grabbed her hand before she hit the ground. Loud crash from the furniture. A strong shuddering came, when they hear the sirens. She squinted her eyes to see a rocky slope at the wrecked house.
A loud explosion was heard, the city melted into the darkness. The ground was slowly eaten by the larva.
Sven looked at her and said, "time to call the power couples" she nodded.
“Here and now
I evoke the elemental force of Earth:
The soil of fertility and growth,
fecund source of stability.
I seek the deep cavern within.
That I might patiently build
strength, mystery,
Sanctuary and abundance.
I call you forth to filter away.
All that is impure.
And to stand rooted in this world.
Mountain and Dust.
Footstep and Stone.
Earth, I call thee hence.”
Virgo appeared, "I work in whatever appearance you'd like me to. Even appearance of your lover boy," she winks
“Here and now
I evoke the elemental force of Fire:
The dancing source of heat, light, and life.
I seek the flowing forge within.
That I might warm myself with
Courage and inspiration.
I call you forth to burn away.
All that impedes my highest vision
and to enact change in the world.
Lightning and Hearth.
Heart and Forge.
Fire, I call thee hence.”
Leo appeared beside Virgo, "it's your words that gave us courage. That became our light, guiding us to the right path."
A little later, the place bathed in silvery moonlight, and all elements shows in front of her.
"We the four symbolises elements of
Nature (fire, Air, Water and Earth), are now under your power that blessed by Hecate. The fifth element: Spirit (aether in ancient Greek magic). That element influences the spirit realm. You need to find it, so you can easily conjure powers from Beyond. Now your magical profession upgrade: Contacting Spirits & Ancestral Magic,” they all said.
She cried for the third, losing a friend is not easy. She looks at Sven and asked, "you're not a celestial nor a spirit, right?" Sven just smile at her, nodded.
"Please, don't cry. I'm gonna make you wet. Huff huff!"Aquarius exclaimed.
For the last time, Aquarius made her laugh.
"This is not a goodbye." They all said before they vanished.
