“max, would you mind letting me go now. they put out the fire like ten minutes ago” i said.​ ​

he let me go and i saw the way his face became bright red.

i rubbed my wrist, where there was a new bruise because of being held down. i really should stop forgetting about his strength.

seeing me rub my wrist, max whispered sorry.

i saw him and, he looked like a kicked puppy. i didn’t know who was more of an open book him or anna.

i smiled. everyone was safe now we just have to fight back.

“cleo, i want you to find someone for me”

“sure thing boss. so who do you want me to find”

“luna, the older sister of terra.
