Chapter Twelve "The Eyes That See All"

Suri
Hey Arkain wait up!
Deng I am just irresistible
Fallen
I doubt it’s that
Where did he come from?
Fallen
I’m done with some paper work
Arkain
Paper work? You don’t even have hands!
Fallen
I like how you don’t even use your imagination
Here she comes
Suri
Hey what’s up?
Arkain
Nothing, just had a run in with Ilias
Suri
Oh wow, I don’t think he likes you very much
Arkain
Why do you say that?
Suri
Well earlier he said he didn’t like you much
Arkain
Oh
Fallen
Can’t win them all over
True that
Arkain
Do you have a problem with me?
Suri
No, why would i?
Arkain
I don’t know
Suri
Your kind of weird
Arkain
Different is more like it
Suri
Sure
Fallen
Hello Suri
Suri
Hi fallen, I swear you got the most adorable guardian
Adorable? Yeah because that’s what I was going for
Fallen
Thank you, where is Oren?
Suri
She said she had paperwork to do
What the fuck? Paws do paperwork?
Fallen
I just finished mine
Suri
Good, then you both have some time on your hands
Arkain
Yeah, we do, lots of time
Suri
Well then, I was wondering if you’d like to come by my room later and we can have a little dinner
SCORE!
Fallen
Well I may have to do some-
Arkain
That’s okay, you don’t have to come
Just us two
Suri
Okay, so around seven then?
Arkain
Seven sounds great, just right
Suri
Okay, well then I will see you then
Arkain
Yes, I will be seeing you, because we’re having dinner, at your place, later, at seven
Suri
Yeah, well then, see you then
She walked away
Fallen
You are really reckless
Arkain
Well reckless just got a date
Fallen
I wouldn’t call it a date
What does he know about dates?
Fallen
Would it be a date if I was going?
Arkain
Your not, so who cares?
Fallen
You really need to grow up
Arkain
Pass, I’m just living life
Fallen
Growing up is apart of living life-
Arkain
Please, no lectures right now!
Fallen
If you say so
Arkain
And I did
Fallen
Oh and it just gets worse
Oswaldo
Hey guy’s what’s up?
Arkain
Nothing much man, I got a date
Oswaldo
A date? With who Fallen?
Arkain
No idiot, with Suri
Oswaldo
Oh well that isn’t surprising, I thought I saw a twinkle in her eye when she met you
Arkain
Everyone gets a twinkle when they see me
Oswaldo
Wow your heads big
Arkain
Naw, can’t help it if the ladies like me, you should have seen how Amya and Seris checked me out
Fallen
Your ego is bigger then the oceans
Arkain
But anyways, our dates tonight at seven
Oswaldo
She’s a good girl dude
Arkain
Does that mean I’m a bad boy?
Oswaldo
No, you’re just an idiot trying to get a girl
Arkain
Just let me do my thing
Oswaldo
Well I’ve seen you do your thing, and it doesn’t work
Arkain
Whatever, she wants me
Oswaldo
No, you want her
Fallen
Boys
By the pond sat Iris while Ilias was throwing rocks into the water.
Iris
He did not mean any harm brother
Ilias
We do not need poisonous words in our ears
Iris
I wasn’t aware of his misdoing
Ilias
You are not aware of many things I am
Iris
Our eyes see the same things brother, don’t kid yourself
Ilias
Your eyes aren’t as developed as mine
Iris
In what sense?
Ilias
All of them, you are young
Iris
Youth does not hold me back, you do
Ilias
I am only protecting you
Iris
Protecting me? We are walking into a war; you see it as clearly as I do! And you are protecting me from what? From a boy who is just as worthy of the name of hope as we are
Ilias
You wouldn’t understand
Iris
Your afraid of him aren’t you
Ilias
Be quiet
Iris
The elders will not let him join them, even if he is just like them
Ilias
We can’t rely on weak people sister
Iris
Yet we must
Ilias
The elders do not know of the sky walkers, the best option is to hope Arkain is killed
Iris
Dark words brother, has your mind already been slipping into darkness already?
Ilias
No, it’s just; I think that is what must be done for the greater good
Iris
The greater good for what, we can see in front of us, what is happening at the moment we’re looking, but we cannot see the future
Ilias
I can’t see forward, nor will I pretend to, but we know what it’s like to be alone, he will seek refuge with them, you just watch sister. These lights we are suppose to be will burn out
Iris
Pessimistic thoughts shine through you. Perhaps there is an alternative
Ilias
Yes, there always is, yet I don’t see how those alternatives can be reached. They will come, the third force in this war, and they will persuade Arkain into their group. We see them in the sky, and soon they will land in our circle.
Iris
The time will come, when Arkain must make a choice, he is pure brother, and he will know what to do.
Ilias
The purest are always the ones they want
Iris
We shall see, till then, it is in tomorrow
Ilias
I wonder though, should we tell the elders that the water of the earth is now moving with the sky walkers?
Iris
No, we must not intervene with what is only seen through our eyes
Ilias
As I thought, soon every force on earth will be ready to wage war
Iris
And we will be doing the same
Ilias
War, it’s a funny game, it’s a good thing we can see all
Iris
All is in our line of vision
