"I... just..." Naisha tried to say something, but couldn't bring herself to finish her own sentence. She clentched her weak fist as stood there, sitting. It made her hand hurt, her jaw was also clentched also causing pain as she was struggling with her emotions." I don't want to hurt Alex..." She finally cried quietly." But these guys always pick on her... I was jus trying to help her."

"I used to keep them silent back when I could still move normally." She said depressed, her expression really dark right now as she was on the verge of crying with tears and all." It's so... frustrating..." Nai finally couldn't take it anymore and bursts in tears." I hate this... why did it happen like this?" She was crying. Darkness was indeed swelling in her heart. Her frustration, anger, pain and fear were causing illogical thoughts to a degree. She hated herself... hated the boys... hated the world. It just wasn't fair. Sometimes at night she'd just stare emptily at the ceiling just wishing everything to end, but always stopped herself because of friend and parents. She didn't want to hurt her best friend like that. Didn't want to hurt her family.

Yuna frowned as she watched the young girl start to burst into tears, the utter frustration finally getting to the mage prodigy. Soon enough, the former summoner reached and gently embraced Naisha. Brushing her left hand gently against Naisha's back to comfort her while the right stroked the top of the raven colored hair. The poor child.... indeed it was heartbreaking to see Naisha go through such a harsh time. It wasn't fair, but it was something she would have to get by.

"I know Naisha dear. It isn't right for them to do so, but you also shouldn't allow your anger to cloud your judgement. They are young and they are foolish, but they don't deserve to be speared with icicles." Yuna spoke with a soft voice, gingerly wiping at the tears

"All I'm asking is for you to try. You're working so hard already I know, but once you can settle your mind and heart, I know you'll feel lighter and happier. May take some time and me and Lulu are always ready to help. Same with Alex." she said, her mismatched colored eyes softening as she gave a gentle smile.

Naisha was indeed feeling as broken now as she felt at hte start. The frustration was so great and she could barely stand it. Yuna's words while reassuring and kind, could do only so much to a heart this broken right now. Nai just needed to let it out and there was only the hope htat one day she will come to terms with it. It wasn't going to be soon, may take years or it may never really happen.

"I..." She cried out and then contineud to cry for a long while until she finally tired herself out so completely that she more or less fell asleep, her eyes red from all hte tears and standing out so much on her current pale skin.

"So she finally fell asleep..." Lulu said when she appared again." I suggest we let her sleep here for a little while. Moving her in this condition probably wouldn't be the best idea."

Yuna gave another soft sigh as she held the young girl within her arms, stroking the top of the raven haired lass like a kindly mother. "Yes you are probably correct. Poor girl, I wish there was more I could do for her." the former summoner murmured, closing her mismatched gaze thoughtfully. Thinking to the times of just those few years ago of this poor young child being struck with such a unfortunate circumstance. Opening her gaze, she turned toward Lulu and gave a smile toward the black magic wielding master.

"Remember all those years ago? I wasn't too much older than her when we started our journey. The time I had accepted the fate I had chosen. To use my life to end Sin. It seemed such a easy decision back when I started." She said thoughtfully as she took a soft breathe.

"Then as we went on, I got a bit more frightened. Thoughts of 'why did I have to do this?' even if the answer seemed so obvious? Why me? Do you think that was foolish of my Lulu?" Yuna asked with a soft kind smile.

(@rivaan sorry for the delay again <.<]

(@Silver Fox No problemo)

"No. It was not." Lulu replied with calm friendly voice. She was older than Yuna and felt sisterly love towards the former summoner." That's what it means to be alive. No one can expect a young person to know what they want to do. You... no it was all of us who made it that the summoners were raised with little chance to realize their own desires. After all... who'd want a summoner who was afraid to die or not give his or her life willingly." Lulu shook her head." No it is normal for everyone to find doubts within themselves. Especially so when circumstances such as these are trusted upon the shoulders of those still so young that carrying those burdens is a task they were not prepared for."

"Yuna... A few days ago Wakka finally found the cave that Naisha here must have entered around the coast." Lulu said with serios voice." He brought me there... something was there once. Marking suggest something great the cavern must have housed something akin to a Behemot. No way Naisha would escape from there unharmed aside that myterious illness... unless something defeated it. I talked with Wakka, he's not found anything in the waters surrounding the island that's dangerous to that point. It hasn't left that ruin. A child cannot defeat a creature like that unless..." Lulu stopped for a moment, evaluating her own thoughts and how to answer." Something of such a great power took place... the only source of such power could be Naisha. A child wouldn't have enough of it to fuel such effect. We are talking about a conseccutive uses of Flare types of mana. I'm not saying it was a direct spell she used, she didn't know magic before I taught her. But we both know that there are beings out there. What if Naisha's tied to something akin to the faith... or probably a fiend of some kind? What it couldn't pull from her mana it took from her life."
