Post #2651161 in Fire and Ice Collide, a roleplay on RPG

Hearing the first prince of Eldur desperately call out to his sister, shocked Keanu. The boy honestly seemed frightened for her. Just then, Crystal just barely shifted. If you blinked at that time, or weren't paying attention to her you might have missed it. But since Keanu didn't take his eyes off her, he oticed. Somehow this angered him, he didn't know why, but it did. Maybe it was the fact that Ahuv's voice might have reached her just a little bit, and not his. However, it did seem like it was getting somewhere. So then he also started shouting Crystal's name out. This better work damn it, he thought.

"...C...al...stal...r..stal..." There was a voice in the distance. The princess had stopped screaming and was only sobbing now. She couldn't make out what was being said, so she ignored it. Looking back down at Jayden, she gently ran her fingers through his hair. "It's okay now. No one's ever going to hurt you anymore..." She whispered. Just then a second voice came in. Who did these voices belong to?

'Hey you gotta wake up now, okay? There are people waiting for you.' A small figure appeared in front of her. When she looked, it have no face. But it was able to speak to her, sounding like a little boy. 'Crystal, you gotta snap out of it.' She shook her head. She couldn't leave, she didn't want to let Jayden go, not again. 'It's alright. You can let go. I know you'll get back on your feet again.' She somehow could tell the figure was smiling, even without a face. "But..But because of me Jayden...Jayden..." She sniffed, trying not to start crying again. 'It wasn't your fault. Some things happen for a reason. This just happened to be one of them. Fate can be really mean like that.' The figure let out a small chuckle, though it sounded sad. 'I'm sorry I couldn't protect you better. I'm glad you made it out alive though. Just know I am always in your heart and watching over you. I love you Cryssi.' Before she realized it, the figure was gone. "Jayden...I love you too." Her eyes started tearing up again.

That's when a loud voice broke through, it yelled her name over and over again. Where was is coming from? Whose voice was it? Trying harder to hear it, she noticed it was a male's voice. Much older then the voice coming from the figure. Glancing around trying to find where, she saw a light. Looking harder, she realized it was a flame of sorts. Each time her name was called, the flame would glow slightly brighter. "..Ah-Ahuv...?"

Slowly blinking, Crystal saw her twin brother's tombstone in front of her. She was back? She moved her head to look up and only briefly noticed everyone trapped in an ice cone prison. "What..?" Her voice was hoarse, but before she could say more, her violent coughing returned. Her head started pounding as she got extremely dizzy. Her vision was also getting spotty, before everything went black. She fell forward, landing on her side in a fetal-like position.

Keanu let out a sigh of relief when Crystal passed out. He felt bad for doing so, but at least they were out of danger from her ice now. The ice was just barely poking into their necks, when is started to melt. It still took a minute or two before the ice was low enough for anyone to move. As soon as he could, he leaped over the half melted ice and ran over to his sister. Dropping his sword, Keanu knelt down, gently cradling her in his arms. She was even more so pale than usual and her breathing was heavy. "Shit...She's running a high fever." He didn't have to feel her skin to know that. He could fell the heat from her body coming through her clothes. Despite being unconscious, Crystal was still coughing, as blood continued to trickle down her mouth.

Keanu's head whipped up, as he looked to Tamar. "Tamar arrest that Vatnian man, then gather the horses! We need to get her back to the castle quickly!" She was only standing there for a second before he shouted. "Move it now!" He hadn't meant to snap at her, but he couldn't help it. He was terrified for his dear sister's life.
