“That’s Luke” i said
“That’s Luke” i said
Nathan nodded. "Where did you pick him up?"
(I can be here for about thirty minutes, and then I have to be somewhere) Luke shook himself and seemed to wake up. "I met her last night, before you did I guess. I promised to keep her company this morning because she wasn't feeling well." He nodded at you. "You must be Nathan. Nice to meet ya."
I was so tired, i was nodding off in the corner. “Feel free to explor the place. These caves go all around the mountain.” I said sleepily
Crash sniffed around curiously. "So, Nathan, you said somebody was chasing us. Who?"
Nathan nodded at Luke and shook his hand. He offered him half of a Twix bar, and smiled. "Right or Left twix?"
Nathan looked at Crash. "Lonan Blake. Wealthy businessman who is bored with this world and thinks that by stealing auras he can alter his fate somehow. He's after yours and Maddie's."
"Pfft, you presume that I'm the choosy type." He accepted your offering gratefully. "I, too, would like to know more about the danger, please. What terrible evil is hounding us today?"
I sat up straighter. I knew i was safe in here but the fear could still get to me.
(ah oops) "Huh." Crash frowned. "Weirdo. I'd like to see him try."
“Wh… why u..us?” I asked, my voice was breaking as I spoke
"People with agendas are kindest. Just keep an eye out. Blake approached me the other night, got to know a few things about me. He tried tempting me into selling you guys out because your auras are enticing to him, and he believes they could make his life simply more interesting."
I stood up, but nearly fell again. I braced my self on the wall. “Di.. did y..you a..agree?”
Nathan looked at her sharply. "No. I've made that mistake before." he said, managing to keep his voice steady.
"And so this Blake guy sent out somebody else to collect instead?" Luke asked. "I get it."
"I'll bet they're weak," Crash grumbled. "I could take 'em."
Nathan nodded. "If he takes your aura, you're not physically hurt, but you lose your bearings for a while along with all childhood memories." He glanced at Maddie.
I pulled myself up and walked to Nathan. I was smaller then him. I looked up at him quizzingly. “Come with me” I told them, I led them through the caves and to a cave pool. Gems glowed all around and vines hung from the roof.
“Maybe losing childhood memories isn’t that bad” i said.
Nathan followed, awe unfurling in his chest. "This is a beautiful place." he breathed.
"Ooh, shiny," Luke remarked. "I suppose you'd be mad if I tried to sell these in the city."
He registered Maddie's answer. "That's what I thought you'd say."
Crash looked confused. "Why would anyone want my memories?"
He shook his head. "He'd use it against people you've known. Leverage is all I guy like that wants."
I took of my clothes, now standing in my under clothes in front of 3 boys in only my underware. My scares were revealed but i didnt care. I jumped in the water.
