"For some strange reason I keep having flashbacks and they are for Sheri but for some strange reason I have them, and I think I am Sheri, Alexander's sister." Echo said.
"Wait what." Liam said.
"I don't remember much all that it showed me." Echo said.
"Ok." Akihiko said.
Later Alexander woke up and Echo was on the side of him.
"Hey." Echo said.
"I see that you are ok." Alexander said as he sat up.
"I know who you really are." Echo said.
"And who is that?" Alexander asked.
"Your my brother aren't you?" Echo asked.
"Yes I am." Alexander said.
"Thank god I still have family." Echo said as she hugged him.
"Ouch." Alexander said as he tried to get Echo off of him.
"Sorry." Echo said as she let go of him.
"It won't be long before they come back to finish me." Alexander said.
"What do you mean?" Lunes asked as she came up to him.
"They all follow our father's orders so they will be back to kill me. They already think she is dead." Alexander said as he pointed to Echo.
"So they won't be looking for her but for you." Liam said.
"Yes." Alexander said.
"Just great so now what are we going to do?" Akihiko said.
"We stay here for a bit longer." Alexander said.
"Are you serious." Liam said.
"Yes very serious." Alexander said.
"Your nuts." Echo said.
"Yes I am." Alexander said.
"Oh great." Lunes said.
"Nice to know we have a crazy person." Akihiko said.
"Why thank you." Alexander said.
"Not a compliment." Liam said.
"So what is the plan besides staying here." Lunes said.
"Nothing." Alexander said.
"Alright then." Akihiko said.
"Well I am going to sleep." Alexander said.
"Ok." Lunes said.
"Night." Echo said.
They all went to sleep. In Alexander's dream.
"Good to see again my son." The father said.
Alexander jumped up and held his head.
"He's coming too." Alexander said to himself.
In the morning.
"We're moving." Alexander said.
"What I thought you said that we are going to stay here?" Lunes asked.
"Change of plans." Alexander said.
"What do you mean?" Echo asked.
"Siefer is coming and so my father and we are no match for them both at once." Alexander said.
"What do you mean by no match for them?" Akihiko asked.
"You don't know the full strength that my father has." Alexander said.
"So you want us to run?" Liam asked.
"Yes I do for your guys sake." Alexander said.
"But what about you?" Echo asked.
"If I have to I will stay here and deal with our father." Alexander said.
"Your going to die." Lunes said.
"Let's get off this conversation." Echo said as she started walking off.
"Your coming to or she will be sad if you die to." Akihiko said as he followed Echo.
"Fine I will come to." Alexander said as he got up.
They started walking into a forest and Alexander was far behind them.
"Are you sure we should trust him he has always tried to kill us." Akihiko said.
Something fell from the sky and was coming straight towards Echo, Alexander used his magic and it jumped.
"Alexander what are you doing?!" Liam yelled.
"Yes what are you doing." Seifer said. "I see you wasted part of your life to save her. Why?"
"None of your business." Alexander said.
"Well any ways we killed Mason your best friend even though you did attack him first." Seifer said.
"Shut up!" Alexander yelled.
"Now now you two." The father said.
Alexander turned around and he was right behind him.
"Ack." Alexander said as the father held his neck.
"Alexander!" Echo yelled.
"Hay you ready to die again." Seifer said to Echo.
"Liam go and help Alexander." Lunes said.
"I see you have been hurt by your friend so I am gonna make you hurt some more." The father said as he used his magic on his wound and Alexander screamed in pain. "There we go."
Liam came over swinging his sword.
"We're done here this all I wanted to do." The father said.
"But I wanted to kill the dragon again." Seifer said.
"No we're leaving." The father said as he disappeared.
"Fine then another time." Seifer said he disappeared.
"We might have a problem!" Liam yelled.
"What do you mean?" Echo said as she walked over.
"He is bleeding more than before what is he trying to do kill his only son?" Akihiko said as he walked over.
"Lunes is there a town near here?" Echo asked.
"Yes about thirty minute walk from here I think or less." Lunes said.
"Alright let's get walking." Liam said as he lifted one of Alexander's arm up and put it over his neck.
They started walking towards the town.
"We're here." Lunes said.
"It's so empty where is everyone at?" Liam asked.
"Don't know but we better find somewhere to stick him." Lunes said.
"Um over there." Echo said as she pointed to a house.
"Let's get moving." Akihiko said as he ran to the house.
They got to the house and the door was wide open.
"Ok then." Lunes said as she went in.
"We need to stick him somewhere." Echo said.
"Up stairs I guess." Liam said as Alexander started walking up and went back out.
Liam took Alexander upstairs.
"Alright I will go up and see how bad his wound is you two go and see if you can find any one." Lunes said.
"Ok." Echo and Akihiko said as they went out of the house.
Lunes went up stairs.
"Alright let's see how bad this." Lunes said as she lifted up his shirt and took it off. "Good god there is more than one wound there is a big scar."
"Man we just need to bandage this one." Liam said.
"Ok." Lunes said and as soon as she touched the wound a magic circle appeared on it. "What is this?"
"Don't know." Liam said as he touched it but it was a shield. "I can't touch it that might be shield magic."
"But why is he using his magic?" Lunes asked.
"Don't know." Liam said.
When he was 8.
"Alexander what are you doing?" A woman asked.
"Reading dad's magic books so I can bring mom back." Alexander said.
"If he finds you in here there will be consequences." The woman said.
"It's not like he comes in here anyways." Alexander said.
"Well come on you also have to take care of your sister now." The woman said.
"Ok." Alexander said as he got up and went out of the room.
"What do you think your doing in that room?" The father said as he grabbed Alexander's hair.
"Nothing." Alexander said.
"Lies boy." he said as he used his magic on him and a big scratch was now on his back. "That is your lesson do it again and there will be more than that."
He dropped Alexander to the ground and walked out and he was bleeding there.
"Alexander!" The woman said as she came over to him. "What to do. What to do. Wait I have to get him fixed up."
She ran out of the room and found someone to help her get Alexander out of there and so they can bandage up the scratch.
"Please take him to his room after I bandage him." the women said as she started walking back to the room.
"Ok." the person said as he followed her.
They bandaged him up and the person took him to his room and put him in bed (on his stomach.) and walked out. Later on Alexander just laid in bed.
"This boy had to many hardships, he lost his mother then his sister now this." The woman said to someone.
"Well his sister isn't dead yet but she still will die when she is five." The other person said.
"I don't want to do this anymore." Alexander said.
"But you must your sister still needs you." The woman said.
A few days later when his scratch was sort of healed. He went into the room and took some books and went to his room.
"Alright better start reading." Alexander said as he opened up one of the books.
"Big brother what are you doing?" Echo asked as she came in and saw him sleeping
She came of to him and sat down and patted his head.
"Big brother is tired." she said as she kept patting his head.
A few minutes later Alexander woke up.
"I'm sorry we were supposed to go outside to today." Alexander said sleepily.
"That's okay we can go out tomorrow." Echo said as she got up.
"Okay we can do that." Alexander said as he grabbed the book he was reading and put it up.
"Bye." Echo said as she went out of the room.
"Bye." Alexander said. "Ok time to test that magic."
He used the magic on his back it healed the other part so it didn't leave a scar.
"Alright ready for tomorrow." Alexander said as he went back to sleep.
In the morning.
"Hey ready to go." Alexander said as he went to Echo.
"Let's go!" Echo yelled.
Which soon leads to the present.
"Hey come on we have to do something." Lunes said.
"Don't know what to do." Liam said.
Echo and Akihiko came into the room.
"Did you find any one?" Lunes asked.
"No." Akihiko said.
"Hey look." Echo said as she pointed to the circle. "It changed into a different color."
"What do you mean." Akihiko said as he also looked over. "It is a different color."
"That's a healing circle. But how is he able to have two circles at one time. That is virtually impossible." Liam said.
"Not for him." Akihiko said.
"Well just leave him he seems to know what he's doing." Liam said
"I guess that is what he meant by he had worse than this." Lunes said
"I guess so." Liam said
They all walked out of the room and the magic circles started fading.
"What was my purpose to stay alive again?" Alexander asked himself. "Am I finished?"
Then the circles finally faded and Echo walked into the room.
"Alexander!" Echo yelled as she ran up to him.
"Echo what is it." Akihiko said as he came in.
"Please don't die." Echo said as she shuck him.
Then one of the circles came back (the healing one) but it kept fading in and out he opened his eyes and closed them.
"This is why I need to stay alive." Alexander said to himself.
"Come on Echo, Lunes wants us so we can go to bed he will be ok." Akihiko said as he looked at her then Alexander.
"Ok." Echo said as she followed him. "Please don't die."
Later on Alexander got up after his wound heal up a little bit.
"Come on me I need to leave here." Alexander said. "Appear my sword."
His sword was in his hand. "Time to move." He got out of the house and started walking towards the forest. "Man I am moving very slowly."
He turned around and looked at the house and kept walking away.
"Got to keep going farther and farther." Alexander said to himself.
"Still trying to live I see." The father said as he came out of a tree.
"Can you leave me and them alone." Alexander said.
"Oh come on you know I can't do that because I want to see how far I can go before you break into pieces." The father said as he pointed to him.
"Just go away!" Alexander said as magic circles surrounded him and they pointed in his father's direction.
"Well you have progressed farther than I expected now you can use multiple magic circles." The father said.
"Yes so I can kill you for mom and for my sister and for my pain." Alexander said as magic circle was still was healing him.
"You know you can't handle all of those magic circles you will kill yourself." The father said.
"I don't care as long as I can get rid of you so she can be free of you." Alexander said. "Go to hell!"
Then the magic circles started casting magic at him and the father kept dodging them.
"Your magic isn't as strong as I hoped it would be is it because your still bleeding." The father said.
"Shut up." Alexander said then he started coughing up blood and the magic circles disappeared and he fell to the ground.
"See I told you not to use all of those magic circles." The father said. "But here let me help you out with that."
"No you just need to go." Alexander said.
Back at the house.
"Hey Alexander are you away I need to ask you a couple of questions." Echo said as she came into the room and he wasn't there.
"Oh come on you know you can't you still want to live because of that magic circle you still have." The father said.
"Just go away." Alexander said.
"Your still a foul." The father said as he came over to him and knelt down next to him. "Here now if you tell anyone I will kill you." as he used a healing circle.
"Why are you doing this?" Alexander asked.
"Don't get the wrong idea I still want to see you kill me like you said but for you to do that you need to live." The father said.
"Fine if you want that to still happen." Alexander said.
"Well she will be coming soon I will see you when you come to kill me and Seifer to." The father said.
"Ok I will try to live at that point." Alexander said.
"Alright time to go." The father said as he disappeared.
Echo came running up to him when she found him.
"Alexander your ok!" She said as she ran up to him and hugged him.
"Yes now let's go back." Alexander said as he got up.
"Are you sure you should be moving?" Echo asked.
"Yes someone just helped me out a bit." Alexander said as he got up.
"Alright then let's go back." Echo said as she also got up.
They went back to the house and Echo went back to bed.
"Well it seems that she is doing just fine here." Alexander said as he went to sleep and his sword disappeared.
"I never did ask those questions." Echo said as she laid there. "I'll ask in the morning."
The next day Alexander was still asleep.
"Hey wake up." Akihiko said as he shoved Alexander off the bed.
Alexander jumped up with his sword in his hand then it disappeared.
"What is it." Alexander said.
"Well Lunes wants you." Akihiko said.
"Ok." Alexander said as he walked out of the room.
"He snores like a pig." Akihiko said.
"Who?" Echo asked as she came up to the doorway.
"Alexander." Akihiko said as he looked at her.
"He does." Echo said. "That's nice to know."
"Your scheming something aren't you." Akihiko said.
"No." Echo said guiltily.
"Well come on." Akihiko said as he started walking away.
"Right." Echo said as she followed behind him.
"What do you mean that all the people are dead?" Lunes asked Alexander.
"I can't sense their presence here it's like they been eradicated or something." Alexander said.
"So a hole town just got up and disappeared." Akihiko said.
"Yes it feels like it." Alexander said.
"Alright then we need to get out of here." Echo said.
"I will get Liam up." Lunes said as she went to Liam's room.
"Hey so what did you mean that you couldn't feel their presence?" Akihiko asked.
"Everyone has a light that burns within them whether or not you believe me that's up to you." Alexander said.
"So you can see the lights in people so is that how you kept finding us?" Akihiko asked.
"More or less." Alexander said. "That is how I also saw my father coming."
"So like a stalker." Echo said as she looked at him.
"No not you guys there is nothing for me to see." Alexander said.
"Ok then." Echo said.
"Besides I have been able to see your lights for a while now." Alexander said.
"Still a stalker." Akihiko said.
"Fine then call me what you want." Alexander said.
"Hey what's going on down here?" Liam asked as he came out of the room.
"We were talking." Echo said.
Alexander went out of the house for a minute and sat on the ground.
