" If things are true as you are saying, then I must say that you got me interested, little boy, " Felix said with a smile on his face.
Heigl looked at Felix with a straight face and then said:" Mister Yogev was not asking you to fight, he is asking you for support, even if we had to fight we will do it because we are more numerous than you, we just want to pressure their leader, nothing more"
"" Are you allowed to speak on your leader's behalf? " Felix asked.
Yogev descended from the rock he was standing in it, then walked toward both of them and said:" Yes he is allowed, this boy is the one who discovered this theory"
Yogev was now putting his hand around Heigl's shoulders while Felix was standing in front of them considering what they offered.
" I am not a leader, i have to clarify this, i walk only on my rules, and right now what you said to me about the king's palace got me very curious i want to test the theory that you said"
" They are not going to let you be there peacefully," Yogov informed.
" No one would tell me what to do '' Felix was acting very rigid now.
People from district 5 didn't even think more about what Yogev and Heigl said, they just wanted to do what Felix decided because to them he knew better.
District 4 people were silent most of the time, they didn't want to have a conflict with the people from district 1 because they were more powerful than them. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N0velFire.ɴet
Yogev looked at them all when he was still standing there, and said with a smile on his face:" If you don't want to join us, just don't tell anyone that we were here and that we spoke of this thing"
" Don't trust them that much, mister leader who can't even give a proper speech, they all ate salt with people from district one"
Yogev tried to act cool and not take his rude words to heart so he ignored his impudence and then said:" Ate salt with them? What is that supposed to mean? "
" They ate food with them, they grew a strong bond with them, so clearly the first thing that they are going to do is tell them exactly about what you warned them not to," Felix said sarcastically.
Yogev looked at the crowd in front of him then he turned around to face his people and said:" We have to go back now, at least we got district 5 with us "
Yogev didn't want to waste more time, so he decided to return to the palace followed by people from district 5 this time.
After a night full of horrors, Lexie finally got a chance to rest, she laid down and closed her eyes trying to take a nap while everyone else was trying to stop the last trees of the forest from burning completely.
Under sunlight, they didn't have any troubles, they were numerous and all of them were using water element magic to create water to stop the fire…
The flames were high, and their magic was not that strong, they couldn't stop it easily, they had to use all the help they could.
Lexie was about to sleep completely when she heard some little steps coming closer to her.
She opened her eyes immediately to see Ciel coming closer to her while he was still wearing one of her sister's clothes.
" Are you tired? Come sleep next to me " She offered.
" I…i am not tired" He answered but he looked very confused as he kept moving his lips, Lexie knew exactly that he had so much to say to her but he was hesitant.
" You are very strong, because i really feel tired and i think that if i don't sleep right now, i might faint from exhaustion" She tried to open a conversation with him and then ask him what he was going to say.
" Is it….possible for someone dead to come….to come back …to life ?" Ciel said very confusedly and scared.
The question he said was very unusual which made her not answer immediately and think more about it
" Why are you asking such a question? Ciel, are you curious? Or did you lose someone and you want him to go back, because then i will totally relate to you, see…i lost my father when i was little, i remember that i asked my mom to bring my dad to life, i was so young and i thought that it was possible…oh my ….i think i spoke a lot" Lexie tried to make him comfortable, but all she did was confuse him more.
" No …not like that " Ciel said very hesitantly.
" Okay, now you got me confused little kid…what do you mean? "
Last night he was so scared because he thought that his life was in huge danger, he thought that she would kill him just because they don't live in the same district, but today when he realized that she helped him with her mom, he thought that she was not going to hurt him at least.
" I saw someone dead…. last night," Ciel said while looking all around him.
" You saw someone dead? Well, that's impossible….i never heard about such a thing and i think that maybe your fear led you to believe that you saw someone dead" Lexie tried to explain to him.
" No, i was not scared, i am telling you i saw someone dead..last night" Ciel insisted
" Okay…let's say what you said was correct for a second, who is the person that you saw? One of your relatives? Your loved ones? …" Lexie sat while trying to hold eye contact with him.
" No …the person i saw was dead the last time i saw him, i am sure of it, because i saw his corpse …i was there when he died…."
" Okay ..just calm down little kid, you are so young to witness such a scary thing like that…just calm down, you can trust me i am not going to hurt you or report you to our leader, listen to me Ciel….i am not like everyone in here…okay, so …now tell me who did you see last night? "
Ciel was now looking at her eyes with his ocean eyes, his heart was pounding when he finally said:" Isiah Duncan "
