Nadia POV

Mrs. Magi, Mr. Yasei, Rain and I entered the spirit world. I finally could see Hollis standing in front of me.

He's still adorable as a ghost!

I tried to hug him but my hands went through his body. He looked depressed trying to touch me. He sounded like a really sad kitten when he tried to hug me.

"Son, try to be tougher than that" Mr. Yasei spoke softly.

"Dad......I don't-"

An enormous monster came and tried to grab Hollis. Rain quickly made some weird shield to cover all of us. A man came with a sword and sliced the monster in half. Rain stared at him as he smiled at her.

"Long time I have seen you my little rain drop" he smiled.

"Dad!" she ran to him and tried to hug him but the same result happened.

She cried slamming her hands against the ground. He tried to comfort her by talking to her. She smiled wiping her tears.

"At least your spirit isn't gone" she laughed.

He seemed paler than before, "I have some hours left....before my spirit disappears" he sighed.

"What do you mean by that?" I asked.

Mr. Yasei folded his arms and looked at him, "Rain's father's spirit will disappear because he has been in the spirit world too long, meaning he will die" he said in a serious tone.

"It's true" Rain's father, Mr. Rose spoke softly.

"Then let's leave!" she said.

"It's not that easy, your father is known as a golden spirit....he will be targeted by many other spirits so that they can live longer" Mr. Yasei said boldly.

"I don't care, I'm going to bring him back" she said angrily.

"What about Hollis?" Mrs. Magi said looking at her worriedly.

"I'll do that later" she said coldly.

"Rain.....you seem different" I came closer to her.

I heard some weird music and scary spirits were coming towards us.

"Lalalalala.....play with us" they repeated many times.

Hollis and Mr. Rose eyes changed when they pointed at them.

"God damn it! They are still alive" Mr. Yasei said angrily.

He took of a staff with a elephants horn at the end and many different magical gems hanging from it.

"Go for shelter!" he looked at us.

Mrs. Magi, Rain and I went behind a large rock and watched him fight the spirits. Rain struggled to hold a magical shield over Hollis and her father so that the spirits don't try to take their bodies.

Mr. Yasei held his translucent arm after he defeated them.

"What's with your arm?" I smiled nervously.

"I'm suppose to be dead, so my spirit is reacting in the spirit world," he sighed. He looked at Hollis still frozen from what happened, "I caused this....what kind of father am I" he said looking at his hands.

"Mr. Yasei, I understand you just wanted to make your son's dreams come true but they have to come through hard work" Mrs. Magi smiled softly.

"Yeah" he smiled.

We finally reached at the Yōso Academy files and tried to find Hollis' files.

"I can't find it in the students section" I sighed.

Mrs. Magi froze looking at a file from the great wizards section.

"It wasn't an accident" she spoke softly.

"What?" Rain and I asked.

"It is him and...." she trembled walking backwards, "some spirits have been trying to eat his files...that's why he has been acting weirdly" she said when some creepy rat looking spirits growled at us.

Rain quickly turned Hollis and her father back normal and ran with them. The rest of us ran behind them. Mr. Rose stopped and materialized a large sword.

"Go" he said boldly.

"We can't leave you, I can't leave you" she cried.

He created a portal, "Please" he smiled softly.

His body slowly was disappearing into cherry blossoms. Mrs. Magi grabbed her hand and we went to back to the real world without him.

Her bangs covered her eyes. I saw tears running down her cheeks.

"He's dead..." she spoke softly, "he's dead!" she screamed.

I hugged her while she cried on my shoulder, "He did it to save you" I said rubbing her hair.

Hollis entered back his body. He patted Mr. Yasei's back, "Dad I'm okay" he smiled weakly.

"I caused all of this....." Mr. Yasei spoke softly. He took out a file with a magic ora surrounding it.
"Hollis, you can let me not be alive anymore....I caused too much trouble. I don't deserve to be alive again" he said giving Hollis it.

Hollis looked at his father worriedly, "Dad, you didn't do anything. I found out I'm a real great Water wizard....and that's the greatest thing anyone has done for me" he chuckled.

"But....I can't.." Mr. Yasei said in a shaky tone.

"Is the Koneko Tribe warrior sad?" Hollis smirked.

"A man can cry you know" Mr. Yasei laughed.

They hugged each other. I smiled remembering about my father. He is always there for me no matter what. I wish I could be with him now but wishes also take sacrifices. Being at Yōso Academy means I have less time to see my father but at least I get to see my mother more than before.

These are moments to treasure....
