The First Wave

Thebus

"Shit." I heard Lagorvo say, he rarely said a swear word anymore. I tried to smile but figured I can't.

A big wave suddenly splashed on the wall knocking back Lagorvo. He slipped on some water and fell down the stairs hitting his head, arms and legs and tumbling towards my legs. I grabbed him up. He was groaning. I muttered to myself. "Shit." And I wiggled in fear. Sweat and water were pouring down my head.

I felt the sand sink into my feet. "Gaslon!!" I scream he didn't seem to notice. I screamed again. "Gaslon!!!-- Fuck!" I tripped and Lagorvo fell on the sand.

"Stay there." I whispered to him. "I am going to go get Gaslon."

He managed to move his hands enough to a thumbs up and raised it to my face.

He smiled.

I ran.

Catching my breathe I saw, Gaslon trying to block up a hole in the wall. I slowly accelerated my speed as I saw the hole get bigger and bigger. It was a stormy night, it began raining while I was on my way here.thundering clouds while huge waves of water class to the walls of the outskirts, Arkshald's wall prevents us from going any further.

Draconia, Alven and Cortios are too far away and Amoeda never let's anyone in.

"Gaslon, stop!!!" But he couldn't most likely hear me due to all the rain and thunder going on in the back ground.

"Fucking hell." The tree next to me burst into flames as it got hit by lightning. It fell flat in front of me, still on fire, raging and burning in the rain.

"Then before I could even reach me, I took a breathe, and looked down, I was exhausted. But that was a mistake, the moment I looked up, Gaslon was no longer there. He was swallowed up by the rampaging water coming to me.

I saw him clinging on to something floating. He was intact and breathing. I tried to run, and I did run.

Run

Run

Run

I picked up Lagorvo as fast as I could. Spoiler alert.

It wasn't fast enough, because the moment I grabbed Lagorvo we were pushed back by the wave.

As we rushed on the side of the beach. I closed my eyes. Wondering If we would survive this, if we can see their faces again. If I can taste Koppa's cooking again and I absolutely love her beef stew? Will I see Kahilya's beautiful smile that makes my day? Will I see Mahica and Andreks fight like sibling again? Will I see Gheisha laugh again? Will I see Gaslon and Lagorvo working on Andreks's pickup truck?

I will.

I braced myself, hoping to survive, hoping for another day.

Then a force broke my arm. I hit a rock. With my shoulder.

God damn it.

I twisted to the side, still carrying Lagorvo in my arms and the waves dissipated. For now.

We stopped on the wet shore and I felt my arm broken, I screamed, I yelled, trying to get my pain out.

I saw Gaslon breathing holding on to a tree.

I saw Lagorvo in my arms breathing.

I survived,

We survived.

I could've done without the broken arm but we survived.

We fucking hell survived.

I heard Adrek's voice over the others.

All I saw was someone picking me up and a faint smell of Lavender before I blacked out.

Adreks

"Save them, before another wave comes through and destroys the walls even more." I yell out loud hoping that will survive. I stop my eyes on Thebus, I can't stop looking at his twisted arm, it wasn't supposed to look that way.

His eyes closed out when Koppa started carrying him towards my pickup.

"Lagorvo!" Gheisha called out. Lagrovo was sprawled at the floor, where Thebus has been. He must have protected Lagorvo.

"Jesus Christ Andreks, don't just stand there help." Mahica pushed me and I ran towards Gaslon who was leaning against a tree. He was breathing

Good.

I picked him up but he was heavy as hell. Mahica came and helped me.

"Listen bro, we'll make it." I said.

"I know." He spoke, coughing up water.

"You'll survive."

"I know." He spoke again.

"We can find another home."

He didn't answer, He fainted.

I myself am not sure If we can find another home, this was our home for a long time.

We arrived at the pick up truck and we placed their bodies at the back, Mahica and Gheisha stayed there to heal them. Koppa, Kahilya and I were at the front.

I drove out of the old village and into nowhere. We never really explored this world. All I know is this is one world, one continent, with people with superpowers. Before we were born, my mom said there was a war, between magic and science, my Mom was a scientist so she believed in science and always disposed Mahica's mother, saying she was a freak.

I never believed her, I have and always had thought Mahica was beautiful.

We arrived at a peaceful beach, the waves were average, the storm was gone and there wasn't any tsunamis or falling trees.

We dropped down and took a short rest.

Koppa and Gheisha agreed to check the forest for anything to eat bringing a sword with them. Forged by yours truly.

Kahilya sat by a log as near as you want to the beach, she was staring at the sunrise. Probably thinking about something.

Mahica stayed and healed and purified the wounds of the three boys.

"This will take a while." She said, pointing to Thebus's bleed and broken arm. "Fixable but difficult."

"I have a machine that might be able to fix that quicker." I suggested

She looked me dead in the eye, glaring like a witch angd said harshly. "NO, this is much safer than any machine."

Koppa and Gheisha came back with a rabbit at a basket. Oh wait scratch that, dead rabbit at the basket.

Mahica started the fire, with magic and just stared at it freaked out still not used to something so unreasonable and illogical such as magic.

Then Two Men in tribe like out fits. Came out of the forest.

They thumped their sticks down on the sand, while yelling in unison. "The Chieftain requests you to a banquet. We like to inform you new comers, to visit, the Northern village."

I raised my hand up. Then spoke out loudly. "The northern what the hell now!?"
