Chapter 14: Left Behind

Seto's P.O.V
I...I see me standing in nothing but a dark room. I don't really look that happy.

"I was always left behind. Why does everyone seem to get a kick out of seeing me get hurt? I'm just getting tired of being left behind. Being abandoned. Being doubted. All these years and things haven't changed one bit! Yes I was born a Dark Mage, but switched to the Light. Being a Dark Mage, I was never left behind. Since I switched, I'm always left behind. Why is that? Other Magic holders think since I was once a Dark Mage, I can't be trusted. Yet I will always outlive them. Dark Mages live way longer then the Light. Sure I'm from the darkness but that doesn't mean I'm entirely evil. It just means I'm capable of things the Light is afraid of doing. And kidnapping my friends...it makes me very angry with you. I may always be left behind...but I will never go back to the darkness. I just want a chance. No one trusts me. Maybe that's good. How can I get trust when I don't even trust myself? I'm not evil right?" They ask.

I open my eyes staring at a cloth ceiling almost. It's dark. I look around seeing Crimson sleeping. I smile a little since she is asleep right next to me. I wince a little and put my hand on my side feeling a scar there. I sit up a little and see Em working on something. She looks up and at me.

"You okay?" She whispers.

"What happened?" I whisper. Em looks away from me.

"I'll explain everything in the morning. Get some sleep." She said. She gets up hearing yelling. "What is Zonnik doing?" She leaves. Where's Skylar? A hand suddenly grabs my wrist making me jump. I look down at Crimson.

"Lay back down Seto." She said sleepy. I lay back down and she move against me putting her head on my shoulder. She kisses my cheek and closes her eyes. Her arms relax on my chest. I smile a little. I rest my arm around her waist. How did I end up from being in the Dead Army's hospital to here?

Em's P.O.V
"Shade I ought to hit you." I said. Shade looks at me.

"I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking." She said.

"Clearly." Zonnik said. I look at the tent with Seto and Crimson in.

"You two keep an eye on Seto for me." I said.

"Are you f**king insane? I'm not being in the same place with Seto. I can barely stand him being here." Zonnik said. My eyes move over to Zonnik.

"Is that so?" I ask.

"Seto is too dangerous. He could kill us all." Shade said. I look at Shade.

"No wonder you two are such idiots. Seto won't hurt you." I said. Shade laughs.

"I beg to differ." She said.

"Fine. I'm getting Dylan and Seanna to do it. If you two hurt Seto, I will have something to say about it." I said. They nod. "Good."

Alesa's P.O.V
I grip the bars and look around. I'm in a cage. And it's only big enough to hold me. I look at Kim. She is sitting in a chair.

"Where's Sky and Jason? What did you do to them?!" I ask. Kim grins.

"Your boyfriend won't be coming back for you. You wanna know why?" She asks. I kinda of don't want to know. Red comes in holding something in his hands.

"Just checked on our boys and found this." Red said throwing the cloth at me. I catch it. My eyes widen instantly. It...It feels familiar. The shape. Too familiar. I uncover it a little and gasp instantly. Sky's amulet! It has blood on it as well. Tears form in my eyes instantly. He's gone. He's dead.

"No." I said quietly. I sit in my cage and hold his amulet close to me. No. This can't be happening. Sky can't be gone. He can't be. He's hard to beat.

"And Jason?" Kim asks. Red crosses his arms. I block them out and just stare at the purple amethyst gem. I grip the amulet in my hands. Tears fall down my face. I'll never see Sky again. I'll never see that smile or his eyes. Or that way he always is able to make me laugh when I'm upset. Feel his comforting arms or his kindness. It's...It's all gone..all of it. I love him. He loved me. I was always afraid to lose him, but I never thought I would. And now I actually did lose him. The Sky Army. The recruits. What do I tell them?! I look over at Kim through my tears. I grip Sky's amulet tight in my hand. Something drags in Zane. Zane looks at me. I meet his eyes.

"Are you kidding me? Alesa where's Sky?" Zane asks. I look at the amulet again. Sky always protected me. I never had to worry about being hurt by any sword or arrow cause I always hid behind him. Now I'll never see him again.

"Sky's dead." Kim said. Silence comes and Zane looks at me again.

"Alesa she has to be joking." Zane said. I don't answer him. Sky...Sky was kill by her. By Kim. I look over at Kim again.

"Just you wait...you'll get yours. Both of you." I said. Kim meets my eyes.

"Seto has a different opinion." Kim said. She stands up. "As long as I have that dumbass sorcerer under my mind control, I can do whatever the hell I want." So Seto is mind controlled? I smile a little. I knew it. Seto has such a gentle and mind heart. He wouldn't hurt any of us. I stare at Sky's amulet.

"I still have faith in Seto, he wouldn't do this to us. Your not gonna have control over him for much longer." I said.

"It takes guts to be Sky's girlfriend. Your always a target, his weakness. There's a reason your here. With Sky gone your the only one that can control the Sky Army. They wouldn't want for you to die Alesa too." She said. I don't care what happens to me. I look at Kim. I just want her to die.

Zane's P.O.V
Kim looks at me.

"So I have a job for you. To track and eliminate the Star Army General." Kim said. I laugh. "Oh come on it will be easy. Jason's such a wimp."

"Jason's deadly." Alesa said. Kim looks at Alesa.

"Jason's dangerous. He may look kind and nice on the outside,but that's because you haven't seen him in a fight. Sky basically trained all the Generals in fighting." I said. Kim looks at me. I smirk. "Ian's out. I know recruits are out as well. Seto hasn't come back. Jason's no where to be seen. I would be scared if I were you. You see Kim, we always win."

"We never lose. We are always on top." Alesa said.

"We always come back. You cannot get rid of us." I said.

"More importantly...Sky always comes back." Alesa said. I smile a little. Kim looks a little freaked out. Red laughs.

"Sky's good as dead." Red said.

"You may have found his amulet. But did you find a body?" I ask.

"No." Red said. I grin.

"Then that doesn't mean he is dead. It just means he is waiting." I said.

"For what?" Red asks.

"To kill you himself. If you hurt Alesa, he isn't gonna be happy you did that." I said. I look over at Alesa. She is smiling slightly.

"I'll like to see him try." Kim said.

Skylar's P.O.V
I stop and look around. Wait...where are we?! I don't recognize anything. This is a horrible time for my skills of no direction at all to come. Jason can't take this. I look at him. He looks horrible. I grip his shirt in my hands a little. That's it, I need to try to healing spell on him.

"Your not gonna make it back to camp if I don't do something." I said. I sit him down.

"W-What are you d-d-doing?" Jason asks. I rub my hands together a little and sit down next to him

"I'm gonna try a healing spell." I said.

Jason's P.O.V
I grab her hands instantly. She doesn't know how to do a healing spell yet. She knows the words but can never do it right. Doing a healing spell incorrectly ends badly for the caster. I know this cause I remember when Seto did one incorrectly once. He was in a coma for four days.

"N-No." I said. I get up a little bit putting pressing on my leg.

"Jason let go." She said.

"Skylar don't. If you do it wrong something bad will happen to you." I said.

"If I don't do it, then your gonna die." She said. I rather have that then for someone to die for me again. Especially if it's Skylar.

"I don't c-care." I said as a massive dizzy spell hits me. Skylar's eyes widen and she grabs my jacket. My vision blurs. She gasps.

"Jason!" She screams as my world goes black.
