Ira calmed down a little as she saw the strange light emitted from Shiv.
"Oh! So you are the one... Good thing I didn't kill you off just now..."
Everyone was confused by her reaction just then. One moment she had that fierce and indifferent look on her face and in the next moment she actually looked so thrilled to meet him?
"Ira, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?"
Shiv ran towards her the moment she stopped attacking him. He was very concerned about her. She looked so pale unlike her usual self. Not to mention she barely woke up after suffering through that severe pain.
"I'm not Ira."
That one simple sentence which came from her confused everyone. She looks just like Ira, but she claims that she is not her? Does that make any sense??
"If you are not her, then who are you?"
The girl before them played with her snow white hair playfully as she casually told them about her.
"Me, I'm the seal, that governs this girl's special powers. I thought you guys were her enemies. That's why I attacked you. But you.... forget it, just make sure that you don't leave her alone."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm growing weak, her spiritual powers just keep on growing from the moment she came to this world. After I am broken, only you are capable of protecting her."
She frowned as she muttered in a low voice.
Shiv and the others were confused by what the girl said. Without her telling, Shiv would always protect Ira, no matter what.
He couldn't understand what she meant by special powers that she had, wasn't Ira just a normal girl....
Maybe not, the moment she crossed the borders of space and time, she became someone special.
"Does she know about you or the powers that she carries?"
"Ofcourse, the kid doesn't know me. I was placed on her, when she was an infant. I have silently been protecting her for a long time now..."
"Why is it necessary for her powers to be sealed?"
Shiv couldn't help but be curious about it for sometime now. Besides, if there is anything that concerned about her, he would want to know the in and out it without fail.
The girl, that called herself a seal, looked very tired, she could barely stand. Even though, they both share the same body, Ira was not aware of her existence. She was someone that was meant to stop and protect Ira.
"You have a lot of questions don't you...." She looked at him with her icy cold oceanic blue eyes. Her stare was effective to make the blood run cold. She was indeed not the Ira that he knew.
His gaze didn't flutter. He looked at her calmly with his unique sapphire blue and honey colored eyes, which could make one completely mesmerized by his gaze.
Indeed men are more handsome when they look serious!
Silently they both shared eyecontact without saying any word for a very long time.
She just wanted to test, test whether that man is worthy, worthy enough for her to pass on the mission she was created for.
Shiv was indeed serious, he made her understand how serious he was about her, about Ira.
She chuckled sweetly as she was playing with her snow white hair.
"I like that look in your eye! Hope it doesn't change in the near future..."
Before he could answer her anything she continued to speak.
"As a gift of our chance meeting, I will give you something... Gather all the injured in here as soon as you can, I don't think I can hold out anylonger..."
Everyone looked stunned for a moment, they could not understand what she meant. A moment ago, she attached them, and now she wants to give some gift?
They couldn't understand what was going on in that pretty head of her's.
"Why do you want us to do that? What is the reason?"
Shiv questioned the thoughts on behalf of everyone.
"I just said, I will give you a gift. Didn't you want to know what kind of power that she is carrying?"
She casually threw a question right back at him.
Ofcourse he was dying to know what kind of power Ira had, that it must be sealed.
He immediately gave a hint to Aditya and Abhinav to do as she said.
"Don't expect too much. What I'm going to show you is only a glimpse of her true powers. Anyways, hurry it up, I don't have much time. Ira will wake up soon enough."
According to her orders, Abhinav and Aditya both assembled all those that were hurt.
She made them stand together in a form of circle and looked at the direction where Shiv was standing.
She glared at him. She looked extremely displeased as she frowned harder at him.
He noticed the stare of the girl at him and looked like he didn't understand her look as he gave off an innocent look.
"You know what, you are so annoying!"
'How did this girl even has a crush on his annoying guy!? It's so frustrating!'
Since she couldn't utter those words out loud before Ira took the initiative, she tried hard to control her tongue and let the cat out of the box.
Even then Shiv looked like he couldn't understand why she was acting like that. He was indeed an great actor.
"Do you want me to drag you over her or what? Aren't you also hurt." She frowned and spoke in a very harsh manner.
"Just go already..." Abhinav didn't care anylonger. He pushed him from behind.
Aditya looked at Shiv and nodded in agreement with Abhinav's words.
Once everyone was on place, Ira casted a spell, the moment she finished chanting the spell a big circle was formed beneath them.
She took a stick that was near her and tapped it three times on the ground as she finished the spell, "Wheel of Health, activate!"
The light emitted from the circle was very warm and cozy.
After a while all those who were on the circle got cured immediately in an instant.
They all looked like, they were never hurt in the first place as there was not even a scar that could be found.
Shiv was amazed by that, his eyes immediately searched for the girl.
The moment they were healed, she collapsed to the cold ground. She looked so pale and her complexion was not good.
Shiv ran towards her and took her on his arms.
"Ira! Ira, wake up. Ira, can you hear me?"
He paniked as she didn't respond. He started shaking her up like crazy.
That was when he noticed that her snow white hair started to change back to it's original color.
