The Last Wish

I remember that night the sky was painted red and the heat pierced my skin making my hands wet and clammy. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, a red and orange light struck right in front of me. The heat stung me so much that I couldn't breathe and my whole body was covered in excruciating pain. My body was thrown to the ground, the funny thing is I didn't realize it until I was rolling on the ground, a moment later I heard a panicked scream.

"STEPHAN!"

"Lift the Barrier!"

"Stephan, wake up - wake up!"

I woke up with excruciating pain on the right side of my body, I tried to open my eyes but my blurry vision slowly recovered although it was not clear enough, I wonder why?

"Mar..Marc..us"

"Good, you're awake." Marcus felt relieved and opened the vial with one hand then with the other hand lifted my head from the ground and shoved the potion into my mouth, "This is the last health potion we have, drink it!"
