POV Max
When we entered the room, we saw a huge cube. There was no one around, it was our chance, but we couldn't take advantage of this opportunity, because we were approached by light air mages. Damn it! We have problems. A battle has begun. It's very difficult to fight with magicians, but we have to beat them. Blow, another blow! Unexpectedly my opponent was Rush. Now I will remember everything, but you can't kill him, but it's a pity. The man spoke:
- Oh, hello, Max. It's been a long time since we saw each other. It was more interesting with you...
A blow, but a magician blocks it. I ask:
- What are you talking about? Freak!
- Wow, I wouldn't say anything if I were you. I can make that girl worse, though, how much worse?
You freak! What did he do to her! I'll kill her, but I can't! I swung hard, but Rush hit her again. He already pissed me off:
- What did you do to Nika? Why do you need all this!
The man started to attack and talk:
- It's simple, Max, it's simple... I need power. You understand me very well. Yes? Max?
- No! Don't compare me to yourself! Let Nika go!
Rush laughed:
- Of course, what else do you want? Don't make me fool!
Everything! He pisses me off! I'm sick of it:
- And who are you, Rush? Normal people do not chase after power! They do not torment the innocent!
I have decided to use a deceptive maneuver for the time being, but Rush did not understand anything. The man fell, so I had to use some spells. As a result, the magician fainted, and the guys had already coped with the rest. Everything looked dented, but not before that. Emma asked:
- They'll wake up soon! What to do now?
I answered:
- Wait, it's going to be all right, just be quiet.
I had to come to this cube. So...here's the pen. Now we have to remember the spell Nika was talking about. Quietly... When I said the right words, the cube began to fall apart. Damn it! What's going on!
Rose shouted:
- What is this?
I answered:
- I don't know...
But they didn't let me finish. A bright flash, and we started being sucked into some black hole that had formed from the cube. What is it? Where is Nika? I don't remember anything anymore... the darkness swallowed us up completely...
POV Nika
Where are the guys? They're not...strong enough to leave me... Suddenly I heard some noise and voices. Stop! They are defenders! They came for me! I wanted to shout them out, but there was no voice. I can't even help them! I'm no use to them... Eh... After a while, everything was quiet. How are the guys? What about them? I hope Rush didn't hurt them. I hate this guy! Suddenly I saw a bright flash. The cube began to collapse. They did it. Wait...there was some black hole that started sucking me in. What is it? What to do! And then the darkness... the darkness...
Where am I again? Eh... I'm sick of it... I survived...or not? How much it hurts... my back... oh... What is wrong with me?
"Nika, open your eyes. "
The old man? Haven't heard from him in a while. Open your eyes? Is that a hint that I'm alive? Eh... I'll try, there's nothing to lose anyway... Eh...well...well...ah...I have a bright light that hurts my eyes... Wait! What? Bright light? I'm alive! Alive? My eyesight improved and I could see that I was in the clinic. Yay...all right... I'm in camp, but where are the guys? What about them?
Suddenly I got the voices from the hallway.
- Max, be careful! You have a hand!
- So what? Everybody has arms and legs, Emma!
- She's right!
- Rose, stay out of it!
I got up on the bed and kept listening.
- Max, the girls are right! We all got hurt, but you're serious!
- Luke! I'm fine! I'm sick of it!
- Max! You have blood on your lip!
Someone started opening the door with words:
- Everyone has blood! Don't exaggerate, Rose!
It was Max. The guy was all beaten up. God... it was all because of me! He was right: I was just a problem. Max saw that I woke up and said:
- Nika...
The others came through the door.
- Max, everyone is worried about you!
Rose said that, but then the rest of the company noticed me and shouted:
- Nika!
Emma and Rose ran to hug me.
- Nika! We are so excited! How are you?
That's what Rose said, and Emma continued:
- We were very worried about you! You were badly hurt there! What did those freaks do to you! We thought the injuries that were on your soul wouldn't go to your body, but they did. Well, don't be upset! Everything is fine now.
It's okay... friends around... I didn't smile much at them.
Now Luke came to me and said:
- Eh...Nika, it's going to be okay now.
Okay... but that's not true... it's just gonna get worse...
Why does Max stand by and say nothing? Clearly... it's all my fault...
Unexpectedly, Rose asked me:
- Are you sure you're okay?
But they didn't give me an answer, because George came into the office and said:
- Guys, Nika needs rest, you will come to her later, and Max will bandage his hand and go, and I will come back tomorrow.
In return, I nodded to the man. Emma said:
- We'll come by your place tonight.
And the guys and George left with it. Max was the only one left with me. The guy started bandaging his hand. We were silent...this silence was depressing. I closed my eyes and lay down. Suddenly, the bed next to me bent over. Max sat down on her side. Honestly...bI was shocked. The guy asked:
- Are you okay?
I couldn't find a word for it, but Max continued:
- Don't think of anything there, I'm asking as a courtesy. I was just wondering... did Rush do this to you?
He can ruin everything! Then why does the guy keep asking me? I don't understand!
Max got tired of not saying anything, so he said:
- Is it so hard for you to say! And where's your thanks? I just asked you!
Why is he yelling at me! I just didn't have time to answer him! I'm sick of him:
- What are you yelling at me! I knew you'd be telling me now that you saved my skin! You could not have saved me! Thank you!
