Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Bella and Kiara

Bluefire was unconscious for awhile then finally woke up. Jay said, Well welcome back Bluefire. Don't worry, we didn't look under the mask. We could care less who you are. We just want to know some information. What kind of information? Said Bluefire. He was still tied up in Tigress's Vines. First. Can I get out of these vines? Yeah. Tigress. Take him out of these vines. Said Jay. Answer our questions, and we will make a deal with you. Depends on the deal. I will try. Tazlin! Come here! Said Jay. Yes sir! Now. Ask Bluefire what you want to know. I want to know if you know my father. How would I know your father? Tazlin said, I don't know him either. Hold on. Jay come here for a second. Ok what? I'm going to reveal my identity to him. I don't have to tell him my real name. If you're sure you want to do this. It's up to you. Ok I will.

Ok Bluefire. I am going to reveal my face. I won't tell you my real name. You might know who my father is, by my eyes. I will try. Said Bluefire. She took off her mask and showed him her face. You are a beautiful young lady. You must be a teenager am I right? Yes. I am 16. I'm looking for my father. Mom told me a little about him before she died. If you tell me her name, I might be able to help you. Her name was Serena. Mom died 4 years ago. Your eyes. You remind me of someone I know. What did she tell you about him? Just that she sent him a note when I was born, and she never heard back from him. She was afraid of how he would react to find out he had a kid, so she left him. She said he was a very energetic, and a fun man. Very strange at times. She also told me he had different colored eyes. That's all she would say huh? Tazlin put back on her Mask and Bluefire said, I have a friend who knows someone who has the same eyes, I will ask. Until then, I will have to have a way to contact you. Here. Said Jay. Take this. Hold on to it. We will contact you in time. Blufire said, About the girls. They have the mark. How far along are they? I need to see. Girls. Show your marks. Yes sir. They showed Bluefire their marks. They were almost halfway grown. If you girls don't get help soon, you will pass out from not being able to control your mark. If it gets fully grown you will die. Give me a call when you make your decision. I will have someone send for you. You have about a month to make your decision. That is when your mark will be halfway grown and passing out stage.

Can I go now? Said Bluefire. NO. We have some rats here. Tigress tie him up again and take him in the cell. Hey wait a min.! I gave you the info I had! Sorry to do this. We will let you go when they leave. Then we will fight again real soon. The plan was finally in motion.

Mizuki went to go look for Bluefire. Tenma said, Hey! Where is Bluefire?! Oh don't worry about him. He is tied up somewhere. What do you want. Zania was sucking power out of people she was fighting. Jay said, I see what you are doing. You are distracting me while that friend of yours rescues Bluefire. Well that's not going to work. Nice try. Only me, Tigress and Tazlin can open the door to where he is. Tazlin. Go get him. Tigress fight this guy. I have some business to take care of. Yes sir. So Tenma fought with Tigress and at times used his invisibility power.

Mizuki found Bluefire. He saw him through a window tied up in a cell. He tried everything he could to open the door, but nothing worked. Dammit! I can't get the door opened. I gotta join Tenma. Hey Tazlin. Why won't the door open to Bluefire's Room? Oh that. Hahaha Jay, me, and Tigress, are the only ones that can open the door. Can you open the door? Yes I am supposed to get him. I Better go check on Zania. Tenma good Luck. He ran off to join Zania. Hey Zania. Oh no, he is here. Jay open the door to where Bluefire is now! I will not do that. We still have business with him. our business is done, he will be free to leave. Dammit! You idiots! Don't you realize he is sick! He came here when he wasn't at full strength. He had just gotten back from the doctor when he came here. Please let him go! He needs his medicine. I'm sorry. I will not. I thought you might say that. Here. Give him his medication. We will retreat for now. Tenma! Come on. Let's get the others.

Ok. They are gone. Good. Said Jay. Let's go. Let Bluefire out now. Tigress you open the door. We need to get the vines off of him. They opened the cell and Bluefire passed out. Tigress took the vines off of Bluefire. Bluefire took a deep breath but didn't wake up. I'm sorry about this Bluefire. Its to help you. He took the mask off Bluefire to breathe better. It's him. That explains a lot. You know him Jay? Yeah my sister went to school with him. Come on Zorin! Wake up! Please. Said Jay. Oww. That hurt. Said Bluefire. Next time not so tight. Sorry. Said Tigress. What? Where's my mask? Oh sorry Zorin. You were hardly breathing. Someone's vines were too tight. You weren't waking up. We had to get you more air. Zorin sighed. It's fine. Just don't tell anyone. Enough people know my secret already. What happened anyway? I thought I heard a commotion. Oh don't worry about it. Here is your medication. How did? I said don't worry about it. OK whatever. I gotta get back. Woah hold on there Zorin. You sure you are ok enough to fly around? Probably not. I have to get home. I have an idea. Tigress and Tazlin. I want you to help Zorin here. Once he is on the ground, I want you both to be yourselves. Tell everyone your real names. They won't know who you are, because they didn't see you with your hoods off. You are 2 strangers who were walking by and found him. Yes sir. Bluefire put his mask back on. When they got down, Zorin pushed his belt and was back to himself. The others pushed theirs as well. Ok Zorin. Come on. Thanks girls.

Zorin walked with them until he collapsed a short distance from the dojo. The dojo is straight ahead. Don't worry about me. Get help. Ask for Zuki or Master. Then he passed out. Bella stay with Zorin. I will go. Ok I will. Hang in there Zorin! Don't die on us.

Somebody! Anybody! I need help! Mizuki or Master here! Mizuki showed up. Can I help you? Yes you can. Me and my friend Bella were walking and we saw a man collapsed. He told me to come here and ask for a Master or Mizuki. Master come quick. Master came out and said, What is it? Follow me. By the way, my name is Kiara. OK Kiara. Lead the way.

Hang on Zorin. Help is on the way. Not long after Zuki and Master showed up, Zorin! Hey buddy. You ok? Oww. I have to stop falling like that. Zorin! Thank God your ok! Lets help you up. Wait a second. Said Bella. Here. He will need these. Thank you. He must have been holding them when he fell. Said Kiara. Thank you girls. Would you want to come by the dojo for a bit? Sure. We don't mind. Follow us. Mizuki put Zorin on his shoulder. Wow! Your really strong to do that. Said Bella. Well he's my bro as in old friend. Really? You two almost look alike. You have two different colored eyes and white hair. I know. I've been told that. OK here we are. Healer! Zorins back! Come quick! The head healer came out. Hey Zorin. Good to see you in one piece. How are you feeling? Before he could say anything. Chloe ran over and gave Zorin a hug. Zorin! I was afraid you were gone forever! Oww Chloe easy! Im still sore. Oh sorry Zorin. I will go call Sapph let her know you are back. I will call Dad and Jason as well. Ok you do that. Healer checked Zorin to make sure he was ok. By the way your body is, you can start eating solids, They must have forgotten you have speed healing.

Oh the girls are here for help by the way. Oh is that right. Said Mizuki. What do you guys need? Well. Said Kiara. Bella, we have to show them. They lifted their shirts to show Zuki and the others. So you two have the mark as well. Zorin do you want to teach them or shall I? Well you can, until I am able to do something. They have only a month before they are in passing out mode. That soon huh? Yeah.

Ok girls let's go ahead and start. The healer will take care of Zorin. Ok first what we do is talk about the mark. Knowing what the mark is, is not as important as knowing what triggers it. Emotions are what trigger the mark. So let's start with you Bella. Has your mark ever hurt or made you do crazy stuff? Yes it has. OK think back at a time when your mark made you hurt. She thought for a min. I know. It usually acts up when I am in danger. Ok now, what about the other time when your mark acts up? Oh I start freaking out for no reason. OK do you know what you're feeling when you freak out or in danger. Yes when I am in danger I am overly cautious and when I am freaking out I feel nervous. OK that makes sense. Kiara when yours hurts what is usually happening? I usually am doing something crazy. So like an adrenaline rush or something. When is acts up again, I lose control of my fighting skills. I'm usually angry or frustrated when it acts up.

Ok Kiara. We will have Zorin help with your problems. He had the same as you. So until he is better, Master will you mind helping Kiara? Sure, not problem. Ok Bella. First thing we are going to do is meditate. Cross your legs and close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Breathe in the good and out the bad. Kiara coughed. Cough Cough. Sorry breathed in too much air. You ok now? Yeah let's continue. Ok breathe in good out the bad they did it a few more times and finished. OK now Bella what I want you to do is think of something that freaks you out and when you do freak out I want you to try to take a deep breath or think of something happy. Ok I will try. Oh and before you do that. We will do this for 20 min since we are just starting. Ok now let's do this.

Bella thought of something that made her nervous and started freaking out. OK now remember what we talked about. Breathe or think of something that makes you calm. 10 min later she came back. She was so tired she collapsed.

OK now your turn Kiara. Think of something that makes you mad and lose control of fighting. Think of something to live for find something to fight for. Yes sir. She thought of something then started losing control. Ok now remember what I told you. Fight. What are you fighting for who are you fighting for. She was pushing herself so hard her nose was bleeding. OK if you don't think of something quick, I am going to have to knock you out. I don't want to have to do that. She finally came too 15 min later. She collapsed on the ground. Healer would you come here please. Yes let me finish with Zorin. I will be right there. OK Zorin rest. Your wife should be here soon. Along with your kids, brother and uncle.

Ok I'm here. Lets check her out. She just collapsed from overworking herself. The bloody nose was just from straining her body too much. Ok both of you. We will rest until tomorrow. Until then we have guest rooms available. Bella you get room 7. When the healer is done with her, Kiara will get room 9.

Zorin laid down to rest. Sapph and the kids finally showed up. Where's Zorin? Is he ok? Yes relax. he is asleep resting. When he wakes up, you can see him. Next one to show was Jason then James. They all waited until Zorin woke up.

It was getting dark. Zorin finally decided to wake up. I feel relaxed and rested now. What a relief. Zorin got up and started to walk. After the first step, he was about to fall. Jason caught him. Zorin looked up and said, Oh hey bro. Hey Zorin. Even though you feel ok, your body isn't quite ready. I guess so. Hey Zuki. Can you and Jason help me to the bench so I can say hi to the kids. Yeah, hang on. They each got a shoulder of Zorin and helped him over to the bench. Thank guys. OK. Now I'm ready for the kids. OK Sapph go ahead. Daddy! Said Zuri. Daddy! Said Slade. They jumped on him at once. Oww. Woah! Slow down kids. Sorry Daddy. It's ok. Just be gentle with Daddy. Have you been good for Mommy kids? Sometimes. Said Zuri. My little honest girl. Ok you two. So tell me what's been going on. Daddy. Grama, went over to the house. Said Slade. Papa too. Said Zuri. Oh really? I bet that was fun. Yeah it was. They played with us, then they had to go. Zorin said, When Daddy gets better, maybe we can go back around break time, and say hi. Yay! Said Zuri. Slade said, Girls. Shook his head. Zorin Chuckled. Aren't you a little young to be thinking that little buddy. Mommy says so. Ok kids. Go have fun with Zuki ok? OK Daddy. Oh kids. I wish I can have more time for you. He said under his breath.
