The fire that follows

"Argh!!" Desire screamed when he saw the fire swallow his head up.

The fire traveled through the sky, and Desire's head was on its way, making Desire be inside it.

"Water!" Desire shouted as he pointed both of his hands towards his face.

Even if the fire were still on his face, spraying it with some water would kill it.

Right, it usually would, but the blue fire in Desire's head was stubborn, and it didn't even shrink a little bit!

This all happened in the span of a second, making Desire very confused.

After all, the fire didn't even lose a bit of its force as it continued burning him.

Wait. Desire thought as he took his time to observe himself.

And when another second passed, Desire finally murmured something as he touched the fire.

"What the, it's not...burning me?"

The fire was still on his head, but it wasn't burning him. He also touched it to make sure, but the fire was indeed not hurting him in any way possible.
