Light in Darkness, Tammy [tohfa e dulha read online TXT] 📗

kept going,” like him a lot and I‘m sure he likes me to.” She looked shocked and I didn’t care I walked away. She stopped me though looking directly into my eyes she asked me.
“How much do you like him, do you think it could be love?” She was very serious and I nodded.
“I’m pretty sure I am in love with him, I wouldn’t tell him so early but when he says it I know I will say it back. I’ve never felt so strongly about someone before.”
“Fine, that’s fine for now but you can’t stay with him forever. Your elements don’t mix well and I’m determined to make sure it stays that way.”
“My mother and father were opposites, it’s perfectly possible.”
“It doesn’t matter, your mother was irresponsible and foolish, she was lucky she didn’t get killed. Don’t forget that people have died that way.”
“Yes but afterward the other person found stronger love proving that it only works with soul mates. So if you’ll excuse me I must go find my sister.” I could tell that she was stunned at my knowledge of such things before I left. I went back to the dorm with a storm in my mind of words to call Luna. I could tell that Elle was aggravated to.
“What’s wrong Elle?” I asked her, concerned.
“Nothing.”
“Something must be wrong, I can sense it.”
“Fine, if you must now I’m mad. I hate how all the teachers think they control what happens in my life. I just want to make my own decisions for me, I would run away but that seems so weak when I can leave so soon.”
“Well, they can’t really control you there is no law that says they can it’s just that they fight dirty. If you want to run away, I have a question.”
“Yes?”
“Oskan wants to run away with me when I turn sixteen, do want to bring Leo and come?”
Her eyes widened in shock, “You really think we could do it?”
“Of course, besides if it turns out we’re lights we can’t stay here anyway.” I told her and she nodded eagerly.
“Yes, definitely. Now why were you mad?”
“Luna found out about me and Oskan and tried to tell me that we wouldn’t be together very much longer.” Then I felt a stab at my heart as I looked at the time, 5:45. Oh no! I have to tell her, we have to stop that fight.
“What, why are you worried?” She said concerned.
“It’s Leo and Oskan, they’re having a fight in fifteen minutes. Come help me stop it, we can vanquish together.”
“Okay, why are they fighting?”
“Leo thinks that Oskan is stealing you.”
“Come on let’s go. We can’t just stay here mopping about it.” She said and grabbed my hand, and then we were there. We saw them getting started and Elle hopped down into the stadium just as Leo threw a ball of fire at Oskan.
“Elle get out of the way! This is my fight.” Leo told her throwing a ball around her to Oskan, I was frozen in place but Oskan deflected it with ease.
“No, now stop it! You can’t fight him like this.”
“Yes I can, besides I’m not the only one fighting here.” Then Oskan threw a ball of fire at Leo and it hit him in the shoulder. He threw one back but Elle hopped in front of it getting it in the stomach. This was a bad thing because the fire was very strong that time. The way I could tell was that it had blood light in it. That didn’t happen unless it was at least level seven and there were only nine levels. I hopped down as Leo threw another fire also hitting Elle.
“Oskan stop! If you don’t someone could get hurt, one more fire ball like that and Elle could die.” As I said that a ball of fire whizzed right past my face and hit Oskan on the shoulder, it must have hurt because his hand flew to it.
“NO! This is me and Leo’s battle. Leo that could have hit her!” He threw one right back hitting Leo in the leg. Elle had been trying to convince Leo to stop but that had only made him angrier and she had almost given up. I refused to though, this had to stop.
“So? You’re mad at her anyway. What’s one little fire right on her arm?” He asked, making Oskan angrier.
“That doesn’t give you permission, besides I thought she was your best friend. Do you want to lose her and your girlfriend?” He asked deflecting Leo’s ball of fire and shooting it at Leo but I extinguished it. Leo threw one back and before I could extinguish it, Elle jumped in front of it and I saw her fall. No! I ran over to her.
“What level did you throw at her?” I asked as Leo brought her over, he wasn’t angry anymore.
“Elle you stupid stupid girl! Why did you get involved?” He said pushing her hair from her face. Then he looked up at my face, “Level nine.” He said and I sighed, that was the highest level. I lifted her shirt so I could see the wound and flinched. All of the skin was charred. I had to feel the burn so that I could heal it. After a few moments she awakened and smiled.
“Did I stop the fight?” She asked and I sighed.
“Yes but that doesn’t mean what you did wasn’t stupid.”
“Doesn’t matter as long as they stopped fighting.” She said hopping up. “Did they hit you?” She asked and I shook my head and she looked confused. “You have a burn on your cheek, right there, it’s small though.” She said pointing to a spot on my face. That ball of fire must have skimmed my face.
“Oh, I guess that one skimmed me, I’ll get it.” I said and healed it.
“Elle, listen if you stop interfering I will never fight like this again with Oskan.” Leo offered her a deal and she looked angry for a minute.
“Fine but you better not and if I hear about anything like this again be warned. I will not stand by and you will feel my anger.” She said stalking off; still mad about him fighting Oskan and he followed her out. I turned to Oskan to heal his shoulder where he was hit.
“Can you sit for me to heal your arm?” I asked and he nodded, I could tell he was still mad though.
“Fine but it doesn’t change anything.”
“I told Luna about us.” I told him and his eyebrows rose.
“You did? What did she think?”
“Yes and she thought that I was stupid. She said we wouldn’t last but I told her we would because I lo… like you a lot.” I told him and he nodded then hugged me.
“Thank you, that’s what I wanted to get out of you.” He started to let go but I gripped him tighter, tears in my eyes. I thought I had lost him. “What’s wrong silly girl?”
“I thought I had lost you. I didn’t think there was anything I could do.” I whispered and he chuckled.
“There’s always something to do silly girl. Now what were you about to say before you cut yourself off and said like you a lot?” He asked me as we separated.
“Umm nothing really.” I lied horribly.
“Fine, at least now we can tell people when they test our relationship.” He finished and pulled me to an area I had seen many times, it was a general area for fires to get a lot of sunlight, it was one of many.
“Why are you taking me here?”
“I just wanted to show you so you knew that it was my area. They designated me one after seeing my meditation again the second time.” He told me and I smiled. Then I frowned, it was really hot here. This is drying me out really badly; if I stay to long I might not have much water in me left. He looked down and frowned. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s really hot here, I’m drying.” As soon as the words came out he pulled me and took me to a moist area. “Thank you.”
“Anything to keep you healthy. I don’t want you to be hurt.” He used the hand he was holding to pull me to him and wrap his arms around me.
“What do you think that we can do about this light thing?”
“I don’t know, I just know that I feel unprepared for this.”
“It will be fine, we’ll get through it.”
“I know but besides that, it’s Elle and Leo. They say they’re fine but I can feel the tension and the need to cover it.” I relieved to him and he nodded, letting me go.
“I can understand that, if I was related to one and best friends with the other I would be worried to.” He took me to my dorm and we said goodbye. When I came in I could see and feel that Elle was mad and kind of sad about something.
“What’s wrong Elle?”
“Nothing apparently.” She told me, sounding bitter.
“I know better than that, please just tell me. Is it Leo? I can feel the tension even with you two trying to mask it.” I told her and she sat on the couch. She put her head in her hands and nodded.
“Our relationship is having problems. He doesn’t trust me alone with Oskan and I told him that was ridiculous but he refuses to accept that. I asked him if I was so untrustworthy then maybe he was to and if that meant I shouldn’t leave him alone with you. He said that was different but it’s not and he seems distant lately. He seems distracted with something that is bugging him. He won’t see the difference in the way he’s been acting but I can see and feel it. I don’t know what it is and it doesn’t help that when I ask him he won’t tell me, like he can’t tell me.” She explained and I nodded, trust was a very important thing in their relationship and in many. If that was wavering then there could be some problems.
“Well I hope that you two can get past it. My best wishes and luck to you two, I know you can do it.” I told her suddenly feeling really exhausted. I got up to go to my room and when I got there I just fell into the welcoming arms of my soft bed. I was asleep quickly; the day’s events had worn me out. I sank into sleep and when I woke up it was lunch time the next day. I didn’t understand until I looked down. There was a burn on my ankle. I knew it must have been from Leo and Oskan’s fight, it must have been another one that skimmed me but I didn’t remember that happening. Unless it was from the dark mass. I pushed the thought away immediately and bent over to heal it. I concentrated on it bending the water to my will. I took more water and used it to speed up the process of healing and the replacing of new skin. I watched once again amazed at the beauty of the water circling and then a few moments later the skin being new and whole again. I got up and got dressed heading out I noticed Elle was even more aggravated and upset than last night.
“Elle? What happened?” I asked her but she shook her head.
“Nothing just another little fight between me and Leo this morning but we’ll be fine. Go have breakfast with Oskan.” She told me
