The darkling step a further back. The magic power in font of it is intense. If he made the boy even furious, his gem could be burn to it's very core. 'Afraid?', evil smirk start to carve through his face.
'Well, you hurt that girl precious friend, you'll pay the same price'.
'Fire dragon sword slash'.
one strike and the deadly sickle of that thing break into pieces. Now 'Darkling start to tremble with fear. Darkness wing appear behind the Darkling. With a blink of an eye, the Darkling soar through the sky.It's speed is lightning fast but the boy ain't giving up just yet. Golden fiery wings appear. The boy tremendous speed overcome the Darkling's.
'Oh no you don't'.
Claws of fire slash through the darkling body but it regenerate as soon as the attacks were gone.
'As long as the Darck inside of me, you'll never'.
The boy can't stand Darkling speech, he breath a meteor out of his mouth.
'Score! wait I ain't done with you just yet you little junk'.
'Dragon fire talons'.
Layla watch in disbelief when the darkling she's almost lost too is being trashed like a rag doll by some guy she had never met before.
'Just how weak am I'.
Just then she remember about Grena condition. Layla lean to the trees to help her walk towards the badly wounded spirit. She almost there but her foot slip and she fall down with a thud. Grena who always says he never cry shed a tear, a wave of sadness roam over his heart.
'Please, princess stop you are hurt badly'.
Layla pay no attention she keep on walking to treat he spirit. She finally reach him.
'I don't have much magic left in me but it should be enough to treat your wound'.
'Princess why did you heal me?'.
'Gh, you are my friend aren't you Grena?'.
A sense of guilt start to build up inside of Grena. He has a secret that he swore to never tell anyone including the princess.
'Yes, I'm your friend'.
The mountain next to the forest melt with a lava fire.
'That boy, he can't stop if he isn't satisfied with his achievement.'
'You better you to him and put some sense into that crazy boy before he burn down the whole city'.
Layla understand each word. That boy power are immense, his power exceed her's.
'Enough I'm fine, if you continue to heal me your energy will wear out before you even get there'. Grena tries to break the awkward moment.
'Hahaha, really funny Grena but if you say you are fine than be it'.
She pull away her hands. 'Now my princess listen carefully. I wouldn't be back to help you for quite a long time so you need to remember every single words I say understand'.
Layla is confuse but she nod. 'Tell that boy that you are the bridge to his home. If he ever want to go back seek the lock and put in the key, only and only then will he return to the Echantors. To open the infinite lock two hearts from the star fire shall unite until then the lock will open. Run straight to Zanrov and inform him about this situation'.
Grena existent start to fade away.
'Wait who is this Zanrov you are talking about'.
'I can stay here much longer just say to that boy tell Zanrov about it and find the ancient Floweria rune.'
Layla understand she can't hold Grena much more, he need to rest before his spirit is extracted. 'Return'.
Grena wave goodbye. When Grena is gone Layla force herself up. She don't know how much longer she push her body over the limit. 'I need to find that boy'.
Layla encourage herself under her breath. She fall down oh who knows for how many time. 'Curse this leg of mine'.
Finally after a few minute of cursing and complaining Layla reach the top peak of the hill next to the mountain.
'What is that boy made of'.
The boy tear down three mountain with two attacks. On top of that the darkling lay on the floor helpless.The darkling look badly wounded and hurt. Event though Layla was hurt like crazy, she still have mercy for others. That's who she is. She'll forgive anyone who hurt her.
'Hey you stop it don't hurt it anymore please listen to me.'
Nevertheless her efforts goes to waste again.
'Man why isn't my luck on my side today'.
Layla pull herself up again for about the fourth time today.
'Hey you.. gah who am I kidding, he would never hear me in this distant'.
Layla just has one problem, she couldn't get down in time to stop the psycho path. Luckily, the hill she is standing crush into nothing when the boy slam Darkling towards her ground.
'WHAT! Is wrong with me today!', Luckily, she slammed right in front the darkling.The good thing is she can save the darkling.
'Just a little more'.
Her hand almost reach the darkling only a little bit more. Layla sense the warm feeling again. She sees the boy inches away from her. Layla has no choice but to use her wounded self as the darkling shield.
'Stop!!!'.
She put her hand in front. The boy has no choice but to stop. 'Get out of my way you!',.
'No just stop, I forgive it just stop hurting this creature will you'.
The boy groan at first but he agrees in the end.
'Good, now can you help us!!!'.
Layla falling down fast, she drops like a falling stone. Her life just about to be sent away like nothing, but the boy manage to grab her.
'Thanks, you save my life quite a lot of time today. what's your name?'.
'Me? oh my name is Ash, Yamato Ash, nice to meet you'. Ash give out one of his charming smile, any girl could melt in an instant when ever he smile.
'What's yours?'.
'Me? well I'm frostbite Layla.'
'Hey I look I like to name people with cute name'.
Layla blush no one ever give her cute names excepts for..
'How about Ly, is it good enough?'. Layla smile with a tint of blush on her cheek.
