Chapter 163 - Broken Fuse

"What do we do now?"

"....We honor Adalyn."

"There are so few of us though? We came with seven and only remain with five."

"LOOK OUT!!!"

"We are being attacked on all sides. They're rocking our car back and forth. Hold on!!!"

"Summer, I thought you left the dragon's back on our last planet. Why are they attacking us now?"

"Night may have offered them a larger house to live in if they do as he says. Can you blame them?"

"No, but our offer was less…brutal than his and dealt with healing people, not killing them. Nightmaster has a funny way of saying thank you for us saving his life. Summer, can you go out there and get them off our backs? It would be much appreciated in the whirlwind we are experiencing.

Wolf, how much damage can this car take?"

"This car is basically impenetrable since it can heal itself. That doesn't mean however that we are."

"Star, even though I was their leader, Nightmaster has them under his spell. They will never give."

"We at least have to try?"

"What do you want me to do?"

"Adelheid, just keep driving. Wolf, can you fly?"

"Look at me. Does it look like I can fly?"

"Fine. Shadow, if you teleport me out there, I'll use the dragons as leverage to stay up. Just don't stop teleporting or else you will fall. I can't die, but you can. Summer, take us out. Adelheid, when I say there is an opening, you open the doors then shut them as fast you can. Got it?"

"I'm all ears."

"Ouch!!!! They're knocking us all over. I don't see an opening amidst all their fire."

"They can't smoke forever. Their lighter has to end at some point."

"NOW!!!

They're catching their breath."

"SWORDS OF THE SPIRIT!!!"

"Go! Go! Go!!"

"Yaagghhhhhhhh"

"Huuu!!!"

"I got you Star."

"Fling me!!!"

"Roarrrrrrrrr!!!!"

"Wolf, what are you still doing in my car? Why aren't you out there taking names just like the 'S' crew? Is it because since your name doesn't begin with the letter S, you feel you would stick out like a sore thumb and wouldn't belong? News flash, big guy. My name also doesn't begin with the letter 'S', but the reason I am not out there fluttering my wings is because I have to control this bird's wings."

"I can't fly?"

"Neither can Star, but do you see that stopping her? She's cutting through them like paper."

"That's because she is dead, Summer is a Dragon, and my brother fears nothing."

"Wolf, I can't focus on two babies' at once you know. It's hard steering a baby, but also trying to drive while listening to the whines of another, is extremely difficult. It still shocks me that your earthly mothers are able to handle both. I…on the other hand cannot."

"I just….it doesn't feel right. 'Remember son, the fists are the last thing someone should see.'"

"You're afraid of killing, is that it? Christians don't kill others?" Wolf, if people didn't kill, then they wouldn't have survived. Imagine everytime the Israelites went to war but this time since Jesus taught to love thy neighbor no matter how bad they were, the Israelites bowed down and said I won't fight you. They would have died not even living two months in the Promised Land!!!

Also, if you believe that God never commanded His prophets to kill, then you are dead wrong. If God told them to kill, they never hesitated and did it. They killed animals…and people for their punishments. Let me name a few. Moses, Samuel, Esau, Eli…the list goes on. God told them to lead His people and then whenever they disobeyed, God always told them to kill a few of the tribe in order to remind them of who the true King is. Now of course, if God says not to kill another, and you do; then you are in big trouble. How much more trouble do you think people were and would be in when God said to kill someone, and you said I will follow all You say to me, but I will not follow that? God wouldn't even have to punish you. You'd be dead by the other."

"God also says not to cast the first stone."

"True, but we didn't cast it. Night did and then his dragons followed. We are just defending. There is no sin in that."

"I….foof…..I..."

"Tell me. Would an angel lie to you?" If you won't defend and draw blood, then at least draw us safely to the ground."

"Fine. Scooch over, little fairy!!!"

"I trust you with the wheels and I promise to get everyone back here as safe as I can."

"YOU BETTER!!!!"

"Summer, wait for me. Don't kill them all or else there will be none left for me!!!!"

"Wondering what took you so long. Where's the big man?"

"Watch out!!!!"

"I left him in the car. After years of not fighting ever since his last fight with his brother, I am sure it is a challenge of mind whether or not killing is right or not. He needs to figure it out on his own with no pressure."

"There is no safer place to think than inside a Healer with no one able to get in from the outside. OOF!!!"

"SUMMER!!!! I'M COMING."

"Shadow, it looks like it's just you and me again."

"Watch your back."

"Ooo!! That was a close one."

"GUYS!!! THEY'RE FLEEING. GET BACK IN HERE BEFORE THEY DECIDE TO TURN AROUND!!!"

"Nice driving, Wolf. You drive like you stole it."

"Where's Adelheid and Summer?"

"One of the dragons knocked Summer out of the sky, soaring to the ground. Adelheid swooped down to catch her but wasn't fast enough. They crash landed somewhere off the coast. Don't worry. Those two will be able to take care of each other."

"Nightmaster knows we are close, so he's splitting us up making it impossible to bounce plans off of each other."

"What do we do?"

"Just have faith!!"

"Wolf, where are you taking us? Slow this car down right now."

"There is no way we can beat Night on our own, but together we may stand a chance."

"Star, how did you defeat him last time?"

"I know what you're talking about, but it was Night's deranged friend, Eelon, that we beat. Our aim was not to kill him, but in order to stop him we had to fuse. That was the only way we would make him fall. Once it was all said and done...Adalyn let him walk vowing never to return."

"Wolf, you think that in a matter of days we can sync as one and then will be able to fuse just like that? We are polar opposites of each other and would do more harm than good if we merged."

"I know that. You and I are not going to merge. Star is going to be the one merging with one of us. Since she is a Hopegiver, once she goes in somebody, she will not turn evil but will further increase the strength of the other. The best part...we don't have to die to obtain strength.

Star, we are both Pures, but can you help us become more than that? Please."

"My dear Brothers and Sisters, take note of this. Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires."

"I am slow to speak. Brother, let me teach you the ways of mother."

"Shh!! She is not done."

"Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent; and humbly accept the Word planted in you, which can save you."

"That's what I've been trying to live by, but big brother here won't let me study."

"Wolf, shut up."

"Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the Word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror. After looking at himself, he goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom and continues in it-not forgetting what they have heard but doing it. They will be blessed in what they do."

"Can you train us now?"

"Wolf, you interrupt one more time and I'll throw you out of this car."

"Who's the passenger and who's the driver? That's what I thought?"

"Hey, keep the car straight and stop rocking it."

"I can't focus when you're trying to distract me with one hand."

"Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. James 1:19-27."

"Let me drive!!"

"I'm the oldest!!!"

"Mom gave me the car and not you!!!"

"Mom would want us to share. Doesn't your Bible teach that?"

"I am sharing my car with you. I'm letting you sit in it."

"BOYS!!! Do I need to speak other verses in order to get through your heads?"

*TWONG*

"Oh no. Was that?"

"Looks like we don't need the steering wheel anymore. WE'RE GOING DOWN. HOLD ONTO SOMETHING!!!"
