Your life can flash before your eyes so fast you don't realize until it happens. Sometimes you don't feel the pain until some else feels it. That someone else might be family or someone you care about. It was someone I really cared about, and I can never let go of him.
 
  It pierced through the air like a shark waiting to attack. It's sharp poisoned tip watched Eve with the impression of prey. It sank its teeth into her shoulder with force. Piper lowered her gun in terrified astonishment. Eve fell to her knees with agonizing pain.

  "I just- wow- what did I- I'm-" she stuttered. Her hands shook as she watched Eve. 

  Then she was knocked back by something. It slammed her into the wall causing her to go unconscious. Sir Trent held up is arm, clearly angry.

  "Trent- I can't breath" Eve gasped. Matt ran over to her. Mr. Woods yanked the dart out of Eve's shoulder. He paused to look at her necklace.

  "Why aren't your healing powers working" Matt tied her hair out of the way.

  I couldn't think. I felt dizzy. Can I see?

Sir Trent turned around, "Eve I'm s-"

  That's when she arrived. "Well I thought the little runt actually did something for once. Poor human can't do anything herself or finish it. Hopefully she stays there" A red cloak walked out of the shadows.

  She pulled her hood back. It revealed golden eyes and black hair in a tight long braid almost down to her knees. She held a tiny flame in her palm. "I'll finish this myself". Her hair lit on fire. Why is that snake on fire?

  "I'm not scared! You think I'm scared of a little flame. I'm tired of you doing whatever you want! Some people care about others" Sir Trent stood up to Scarlet.

  She laughed in his face. With a direct moving of her arm, she created a fire barrier around them.

  "Piper! Scarlet! I'm-" Eve choked on her own spit.

  "Mr.Woods stay here. I'll tie up Piper" Matt set Eve down.

  Mr. Woods shook his head. "No. We have too get out of here. The whole area is covered in heat triggered censors. The master could flood the place"

  "Get Eve and find the others. When she heals herself, she'll help you. I'll stay with Sir Trent." Matt started to wrap Eve's arm with a strip of blanket. He kissed her forehead and proceeded to wrap her in the blanket. Mr. Woods picked her up, and Matt went to Piper.

  Meanwhile, Sir Trent battled Scarlet. It was fire against speed. There was no telling what would happen. Sir Trent ran around her in circles. She tried to fire at him several times but missed. She lit up in rage.

  "Am I to fast for you? Can your pathetic fireballs not reach me in time" He mocked Scarlet, but he seemed to be getting tired the more he ran in circles.

  She burnt parts of her cloak. "Stop running! You are the only coward here mortal! I can see that you are getting tired of running. You'll stop eventually. Might as well stop now". She then started to gush out fire from her hands.

  Mr. Woods threw a small contraption on the wall. "I don't know if it will work, but we don't have time to test it out. Eve get on my back"

  "Why, yes I will go to the ball with you! Wait? Are you- is that- you're a spy. Oh my cheese- pretty fire" Eve hallucinated. Mr. Woods laughed and grabbed her arm, slinging her over.

  Matt quickly wrapped Piper. Who knew how long she would be knocked out? He stepped back and ran towards Sir Trent. Sir Trent seemed to be getting really tired and sweaty from the heat.

  "I don't need your help softy. I can handle this on my own" The two ducked under a fireball.

  "Sir Trent, you can't handle more heat. You'll burn up" Matt pointed out.

  Sir Trent looked behind Matt. "Where's Eve? Is she okay? Mr.Woods?"

  Matt pointed at two people rock climbing with triangle shaped things in the wall. Well Eve was hanging from Mr. Woods. Scarlet caught them off guard and burnt the tops of their hairs. Sir Trent touched the top of his spikes which were now stubs.

  Sir Trent buzzed over to here back side and kicked her on her knees. Then quickly sped to her legs and slung her around. She hit a wall but wasn't knocked out just yet. She got up and her eyes shone brightly. It blinded Sir Trent giving her the chance to fire at his chest. His clothes caught on fire. He quickly put it out. Matt got her attention by waving his arms around.

  "Over here candle cake! You are just on fire" He flattered her. She just snarled at him sending a big ball of flames towards him. He rolled out of the way. He pulled out a pocket knife and slashed at her. She sent more of her fire balls. One of them happened to knock it out of his hands behind him.

  Gripping onto his arm, she flipped him over on his back leaving burnt marks on his arm. He landed with a thud. She picked him up by his collar. "Don't ever test me human" she growled.

  "Put the human down. Won't you rather fight someone with some magical power or at least some intelligence" Sir Trent called from behind her.

  She dropped Matt and turned. "Magic! Bah, you only ran fast". She smack talked, but earlier events proved that his speed is faster than fire.

  Sir Trent got closer this time. "We'll see". He started to fight with her with his hands well knowing she was literally in flames. Each punch, strike, kick brought a burn mark to his clothes or skin. He didn't care at all. She dodged them at first, but Scarlet wasn't the one to fight. Scarlet grew tired and her fire was dwindling. Her flame was almost out.

  Eve was regaining consciousness. Sir Trent? Is that...Scarlet? What are they doing? Eve watched them for a while. She took notice in Matt. "Why aren't they climbing with us? What are we trying to do? You know you look a lot like Bailee". Mr. Woods turned to look at her.

  "You're coming back. Good. We should wait here. Maybe they could climb up here. Looks like Sir Trent has the girl near her stopping point". Mr. Woods took out a small half circle trinket. He shoved it into the wall firmly. Once he let go, it expanded and created a small area for people to sit.

  Eve's mouth dropped in awe. "That was amazing. It just- and it- wow!". Mr. woods chuckled and patted the space next to him. They sat down together and watched.

  Sir Trent used his upper hand with speed. He sped behind Scarlet and kicked her off her feet. Swiftly, he elbowed her in the back. She cried out in pain falling on her hands. He put his foot on her back and crushed her to the ground. Scarlet's fire was completely out. Matt watched from afar. He decided it was best to leave Sir Trent to do the fighting.

  "I hate people like you, all talk and no fight. Get up! Come on! Stop lying around. If you think I'm just going to let Piper kill Eve", he grabbed her neck tightly, "Then I guess I'll have to kill you too". He squeezed her neck tighter. She started to suffocate and choke.

  Eve shook her head. "What is he doing!". She was still dizzy, but she was now poison free. And yet I didn't feel my healing powers. Strange.

  "You can't kill me. My body is an illusion" she choked.

  "I don't care as long as you're not physically alive". He squeezed harder. Scarlet's face turned purple.

  It came from nowhere. The shark returned to finish its job. This time more accurate and would surely kill its prey. Sinking its teeth into his back, Sir Trent fell to the ground. Piper pulled her gun down. Nobody moved for a while. Matt stayed where he was in shock. Mr. Woods stared blankly into space like it wasn't the first death he had ever seen.

  Eve couldn't grasp what just happened. She couldn't tell what she was feeling. Then her powers took over. A rush of air took her to Sir Trent. Eve cradled him in her arms. Her hand felt his warm blood from his back. She also felt the cold touch of poison.

  "It's a poison dart. I already feel it rushing in my blood" Sir Trent could barely move his lips to speak. 

  "No! I can heal you! I promise" she cried. I can't loose him. Not now.

  "Eve your powers aren't working. I'm going to die" He winced.

  Eve shook her head. "No! No! Look I'm okay. That means you will too". He's right. I can't seem to get them under control. Work! Please, work.

  "Saguaro..." he wiped the tears off her face.

  "I told you not to call me that". She smiled still crying.

  "You'll learn to use your powers. We all do at some point" he gasped for air. "Love who you truly love because I love you to much to see you cry" then he pressed his lips against hers. It felt wonderful to Eve until his body went limp and cold. She cried holding him in her arms. I- I've lost him. Forever.

  Then she couldn't handle it. A whole new energy surged through her, and it wasn't good. Vines grew out of her hands. Her eyes turned green/grey. A cold air brushed against her face. She couldn't help it.

  "Eve....no. This is wrong". She heard Ivy's soft voice.

  "I thought you were going to be the right holder this time". Zephyr's voice sounded disappointed.

  Eve listened to neither of them. She didn't feel like herself. This isn't me.
