«We Could Be Legends»

"It's kinda dark to go wandering around. I meant of the people who are here. I'll go check on Ash." She said, turning toward the van. "Oh," She said stopping, "Who are you?" She didn't recognize the teenage girl in the van, or the boy she had with her. "Or, I guess, how are you? Do you need help?"
Lily looked up quickly, fumbling for her gun, until she realized that is wasn't a Pure. "L-Lily, my n-names Lily. Wolfram's...friend." She hesitated, Alec just sitting there, watching. "We're fine."

“Right. Yeah, mrs. Asfaw got stabbed. She also probably has a few concussions, too.” Toby said, but Alice had already walked towards Lily and Alec.
He carefully stood up, testing his footing. Once he thought he could walk, he staggered away from the cars. I need to find Jessi. I can’t let her die. Toby thought, looking through the smoke for a pink wyvern.
He tripped over bodies, but he was surprised with his ability to stay standing. “Jessi?” He called softly.
 
Lily looked up quickly, fumbling for her gun, until she realized that is wasn't a Pure. "L-Lily, my n-names Lily. Wolfram's...friend." She hesitated, Alec just sitting there, watching. "We're fine."

The names sounded familiar, had she met them before? "Oh, ok. I guess, I know you?" She studied Lilys face, that was barely visible in the bright moon light.

Her attention was drawn away though by Toby. Aunty Ash was hurt? Who would have stabbed her?

“I can help,” said a golden voice. A golden face came with it, along with two faintly glowing golden fairy wings, ripped and burned. The pixie.
A golden orb grew between her fingers. “This’ll give energy. Not healing, but you’ll feel less exhausted.”
She handed the orb to Alice. “Use this. You’ll absorb it’s energy when healing people, and it will clear your thoughts.”

"Oh, thank you." She said taking the glowing ball. "I can heal you too." She said offering her hand to the small fairy girl.

"I-I suppose. I think I know you?" Lily murmured questioningly, racking her brain for answers. Bleddyn's the blonde...Camilla? No, no, that's the fiery red-head...Alice? I think?
"Alice, is it?"

"Alice, is it?"
(hmmm, maybe I just can't write today. It isn't coming easy.)
Alice looked back up at Lily from where she was crouching on the ground. She seems to remember me, why can't I remember her?
"Yeah." She fought back the urge to say 'nice to meet you'. But she didn't know what else to say. Alice glanced over at her sister, who was still sitting on the ground. "Sorry I freaked out on you guys. I don't know what's wrong with me." What was I even yelling at them about? She shook her head and turned back to the fairy girl, waiting for a response.

“Sure,” the Pixie said, grabbing her hand.
 
Alice nodded and closed her eyes to concentrate. The fairies paper thin wings fell off at their root and started to regrow, a thick waxy opalescent sheen coating them.
The pixie’s eyes widened in alarm as her wings fell off. Sure there weren’t any nerves in them, but it’s still quite the terrifying experience.
Now they were glowing a gold brighter than the rest of her. Some of the scratches she had sustained underground had been healed as well. She released Alice’s hand and gave her wings a few experimental flutters.
“Thank you,” she said, smiling warnly. “I didn’t know wings could do that,” she admitted.

Alice nodded in response. And got up to go to her aunts side.
 
Alice clamped her hands over her ears and scrunched her eyes shut, blocking him out. Nononono. It's not true. Everyone's fine everyonesfineevryonesfineeveryonesfine!

Alice slowly lowered her trembling hands to her sides, her eyes opening and fixing on an unknown point. Her teeth dug in to her lower lip but she didn't notice. Everyone's fine. Her voice repeated calmly in her head. We just have to find every body and then we can go home. A small smile twitched at the corners of her lips. We can go home and everything will be fine. Alice took a deeper calming breath, and looked back up at Finley, her bright blue eyes dull and empty. She smiled, then distractedly looked around.

"Toby? Who should I heal next?" She asked, oddly cheerful.
Toby looked up towards the direction of Alice when she said his name. Her mood swings were starting to freak him out. “Wha-? Oh. Uhh, where’s m-mrs. Loson and Wolf? They should be pretty high on the... the list. I could try to find them, if you want...”
Finley took a step back from Alice, unnerved by her sudden mood changes. He glanced at Toby. "I think Lachlan went to find them." He murmured. And I hope he finds them soon.

"Uh, yeah. It's fine." Finley said, exchanging a glance with Camilla.
Wolfram gave a barely audible laugh, shaking his head. "We should have been dead a long time ago, I think. But we're still here, and that's all that counts."
Then he heard a voice, a voice he felt like he hadn't heard in a long time, yet it felt so familiar. He whirled around, letting out a sharp gasp of pain. "Lachlan."
After River let Lachlan go, Wolfram took a few steps closer. "Hey, Lach."
Lachlan grinned at him. "Boy, am I glad to see you. Was starting to think you were dead." He glanced Wolfram over. "And may still believe it." He said worriedly, looking over at River, then back to the other teenager. "We need to get you two back to Jenna's van so Alice can take a look at you two. She's healing people, and out of everyone, you two need it the most." He paused for a second, checking to make sure no Pure was coming up on them.
"Who all is there?" River asked anxiously.
"Toby's there, so is Alice, Finley, Ash, Lily, Peter, Grace, Indigo, and Brisa."
