The Many Ramblings of K. A. Webb

Sighing, Kestrel rolled over. The headache still hadn't faded and all she wanted to do was sleep, but that seemed impossible. Insomnia was probably another green level withdrawal symptom or whatever it was. She was angry with Falcon for not being honest with her and it made her feel unwillingly grateful towards Ash. Falcon had always kept things from her, so it wasn't a surprise that he hadn't told her. He also hadn't told her that getting to a higher level would cause her to become infertile. Biting hard on her lip, because she wanted to scream out her rage at her ever irritating brother, she stood and began pacing the room.

Waking up was more difficult than normal. Kestrel blinked a couple of times before attempting to move. It almost felt like she had a hangover but she knew she hadn't gone out drinking the night before. All she could remember clearly was going to the library in the neutral area because she needed a book for an assignment and then there was just a fuzzy blank. Slowly she sat up. At first she just wanted to lie back down to get rid of the headache. Then she realised that she was in a room she had never been in before. Breathing deeply she slipped off the bed, her unexpectedly bare feet touching carpet. There was no doubt in her mind that something bad had happened when she was in the neutral area because neutral didn't mean safe. Nowhere was safe and she was sure she had been careful. Obviously she hadn't been careful enough.

Trying not to focus too hard on what he was doing Heliopath stood and picked Kestrel up. The moment that she was in his arms he knew he should have got someone else to carry her upstairs for him. With that one action he was reminded of things that he really didn’t want to be reminded of. It had been a long time since he’d stopped to think about why he’d made the choices he had, partly because he didn’t want to but mostly because he’d not had the time to. Breathing deeply he walked out of the room.

Written for Surprise Story Week: 6.

It had been a long fight to the top for Heliopath and once he was there he didn’t stop fighting. He wasn’t fighting simply for the sake of fighting, although it had become something he was too used to for his own good, but because he had a vision. The town shouldn’t be fractured the way it was. There was no need for the different groups of mages all fighting each other for a reason they couldn’t even remember any more. Sighing he looked at the map. Getting everyone together was a lot harder than he’d expected it to be.
