Chapter 87 - Put Out Her Fire

Back on earth.

Abasi was practicing on time traveling. Knowing the future masters of the earth were able to break through traveling through time. He also wanted to test how far he could go.

This time, he wanted to travel to the future.

It was because of the constant warning of the future masters, that he wanted to see for himself; the disaster that was to strike the earth in the future.

He was in the cavern in the rainforest of Brazil, concentrating on his own, communicating with the spirit within him. Just as when he felt himself being sucked into a void, he heard Trisha's voice.

Trisha was at her home when she heard Amanda's cry and the first person she called was Abasi.

"Abasi, Amanda needs us! Go to her! Go to her now and take to her the red crystal!" Said Trisha in Abasi's head.

"Why? What happened?" Abasi asked, breaking off the wormhole that he had begun to make.

He came to the cave so as not to be disturbed, but just as when he made progress, Trisha had to call upon him.

"Abasi, I saw through the eyes of Amanda. She found the master of water. It was that Christopher all along! I'll explain to you as you go to her! You must bring the red crystal to her! She used the blue crystal to fight for her life, and now she is suffering from the consequences. Go to her now, Abasi!"

Back in Pelagy.

A kilometer away from the puzzle wood forest.

The sun had begun to set and in a dry and pebbled ground, in the middle of miles and miles of barrenness, lay Amanda in Christopher's arms.

"Amanda! Amanda!" Christopher called repeatedly. Her breathing was so slow that he had to deliver air into her mouth. He did this for seconds, but there was no improvement in her state.

The corner of Christopher's eyes made tears as he tried to keep her awake. He felt his heart utterly broken, feeling helpless, sensing the woman he loved fading away in his own arms.

Patting on her cheek, Christopher yelled, "Amanda! Please! Please! Tell me what to do! Tell me!"

"Christopher, maybe we - we need to take her to a healer!" Suggested Kyle.

Unfortunately, the powerful healer, Basalt, drowned along with the Oscorians, following Amanda's flooding of the puzzle wood forest. The only option was to return to Aeros.

Christopher's hands trembled as he nodded, "Let's - let's go - "

Before Christopher and the others could leave, a swirling light appeared in front of them. They all felt their heart racing, unable to recognize the kind of magic before their eyes.

Soon a figure came out of swirling light; a man glowing in both red and green. While in his earthly clothes, his skin was colored combined with the powers of the red and the green crystal.

Christopher and his group took several steps back. Christopher was carrying Amanda, already fully unconscious.

Before Christopher could ask the identity of the man, Abasi raised his hand and revealed the red crystal.

Controlling gravity, Abasi let Christopher and Amanda float. He did this while thrusting his body forward, further lifting his hand that held the power of flames.

"Haaaahhh!" In a split second, Abasi shoved the crystal in Amanda's body and the color of red began to spread across her skin.

Simultaneously, Abasi's second skin changed only to maintain the color of time and space. He let gravity allow his feet to touch the ground, and so did Christopher.

The arrival of Abasi and his actions happened too fast before Christopher's eyes that he could not object. He watched as Amanda's skin turn red while floating in midair.

Abasi kept Amanda afloat, and he said to Christopher, "You need to stay away from her momentarily. She will become a bomb in just a matter of seconds."

Shocked and confused, Christopher asked, "What? What is going on? Who are you?"

Kyle, Khalil, and Razul, on the other hand, were just too dumbstruck over the recent turn of events. They felt gods and spirits appeared before them, and they were left utterly in disbelief.

Abasi continued to raise Amanda to the sky. Her body swayed, turning in the air like she was soaring in the sea. Only when Amanda was in a safe distance, practically over a hundred of feet above them, did he turn to Christopher.

He said, "My name is Abasi, I am the earth's master of time and space. Above you is Amanda, the master of fire. You - you are not from the earth, but the spirit chose you... to be the master of water... Strange, but it's apparently true."

Just as Abasi said those words, they heard a loud explosive sound. Amanda emitted rings of fire spreading across the sky, reaching a mile in diameter.

"Fire! Fire! The sky is - is on fire!" Exclaimed Kyle, looking above from where Amanda was.

They all watched for minutes until the rings of fire slowly died down. Only then did Abasi let Amanda descend from above.

Still unconscious, Abasi let Amanda stay afloat, four feet above the ground. Amanda was still on fire. Her clothes and even her armor were gone, melted away from the blast of re-absorbing the full strength of her crystal after a long time.

"Amanda." Christopher wanted to touch her but was worried about her flames.

"You can hold her," said Abasi. "You are the master of water. You - you are meant to tame her flames."

"Go ahead. Hold her. Her flames can't hurt us," said Abasi. "Especially you."

Christopher looked back to his men and his friend before returning his attention to Amanda. Gradually, he walked closer and reached for her.

When he touched the flames, he was stunned to feel no pain. He proceeded to hold her hand.

Never had he seen such unique power, and in his head, he continued to question its strength.

As soon as he touched her hand, his skin and his eyes glowed in blue. The light in his hands began to spread through Amanda's fire and slowly, her flames died out.

The angry flames disappeared upon his touch.

After seeing that Amanda's fire had calmed down, Abasi let her down.

Christopher caught her outright, carrying her and resting her into his chest.

While Amanda remained in her second skin of red, she was no longer on fire.. Finally, the master of water was found; the one who could put out her fire.
