After Luan was launched.
No one saw him come out of the water. It had been about eight minutes. You could feel the fear among the people in that area, especially the person who threw him.
The teachers sent out alerts to see if they could find him downstream.
Saul called Liz, to let her know what was happening, since they had moved away from the group.
-They couldn't find Luan, they threw him out of the waterfall and he didn't show up anymore. You are quite far from us, maybe you can look for him over there.
-Ok-said the girl.
She looked at her partner and they started talking.
-What are we going to do?
-We have to go look for him.
-As our powers are not much help now.
Alison got a little scared.
-I think this necklace will help us if he doesn't take it off.
The boy took it out of his pocket to see its color, and when he did, they noticed that he was indeed wearing it, but it was black, which proved that he was dead.
-I'm sorry, Alison, there's nothing to be done, he's already dead.
He was looking down from the moment he realized what had happened, but the necklace began to blink.
-Did you see that, Liz?
-Maybe it's your power. I know you may feel guilty, but what happened to him wasn't your fault, let's go.
-I feel like she's guiding me, I'm going to follow her.
Alison followed, the source of energy that she felt at that moment and ran to where the most presence of that power was perceived. Liz didn't want to leave him alone and she went with him.
The two of them headed downstream.
He spent almost ten minutes running, guided by a strange necklace, doubting that it would work, but there was no other alternative, it was the only thing he could do.
Even the necklace began to blink, continuously and they saw in the middle of the river movement and something like a person.
Alison went into the water, swimming against the current and went up to him, grabbed him. It was Luan, he had a head injury, but at that moment the river was dragging them both, on several occasions he was submerged by the current.
While the river was dragging them, Alison with the same object with which she had found her friend cut her arm in a place where it had some strange marks, raised this same arm and pointed it at a tree. A kind of electric ray emanated from the boy cutting it off and falling in the direction of where the river was carrying them. Alison grabbed this one to try to get out, while her other arm held her friend against her chest.
She spent several minutes trying to pass, until she finally managed to get out of the river.
He was tired and panting.
How could his partner get his cell phone out and call Saul.
-Saul, we've found Luan, I'll send you the address.
-We'll get there quickly.
Liz, approached both of them and proceeded to try to revive him, giving him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, but he did not respond.
Alison, as a last resort to what was happening, approached him and gave him small shocks to his chest with her skill, for several minutes, but he didn't react.
They had a good time like that and nothing happened.
She began to despair and against her will her tears were falling. Alison was a little saddened and they left him for dead.
The girl put her forehead against his chest.
-Please, Luan, wake up. I know we haven't shared much, but if you come back, I will try to make your school life like the one you once dreamed of.
She gave him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation again.
As they looked at him in the distance, a group of people were approaching.
I was thinking the worst because he was in the water for a long time.
Hana, she was about to cry, she didn't believe what was happening, her cousin was dead. Snaider was holding her on his shoulder. There were also two paramedics, Professor Sara and Samantha.
Even the paramedics saw this as a waste of the boy's time and considered him to be dead.
-I am sorry, he is no longer alive, it is impossible that he could have lasted so long.
Liz continued to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, while Alison could only watch, although this time she squeezed his chest and gave him small electric shocks, in her hands, looking for some answer.
And she began to feel her heart starting to beat.
He woke up in the middle of the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation his partner was giving him.
And he put his hand on her cheek.
She moved a little away from Luan, as she saw in the position in which both of them were standing.
-What happened? -...., because we're here,... are you crying? You look sad - she said something dazed, and looked lost.
Alison was shirtless, showing that scar of internal burns. Which everyone saw as soon as they got close to them.
Liz put her head on Luan's chest.
-I'm glad you're okay.
Hana arrived early with everyone and approached them, and touched Luan's head.
Liz felt everyone's presence and looked away from them and turned her back to them, she was a little embarrassed.
Samantha arrived at Alison's side, and took off a shirt she had on, and put it on the boy, who was exhausted and began to shake, also to try to get more people to see the scars on his body, exposing his bathing suit. The moment I touched him, he felt something strange, a small electric shock. For a moment he was about to faint, but he tried to stay conscious and lean on his partner.
- Are you okay? he asked, since he realized what had happened to Samantha.
-Yes," she replied.
Almost simultaneously, Luan had just regained consciousness as his cousin tried to talk to him.
- What do you feel, do you remember me?
The somewhat surprised doctors spoke.
-Please leave, we're going to check you out and get you to a hospital.
As they were taking him away Snaider looked at his brother.
-Please stand up and look at me, Alison.
-President Snaider, please, your brother is tired, and he has an injury on his arm," Samantha said.
-Please don't intervene, this only concerns the two of us.
-He got up with his partner and left with the Snaider.
Both brothers walked away from the rest of the people, who were there.
When they reached a place far away, they proceeded to talk.
-Tell me, where did you get those burns?
Alison was silent, and did not answer.
-I know we're not blood brothers, and we were never close, but all this time, you had that in your body, what's wrong with you, say something.
-As you know, he adopted me just like you did, but I've chosen to avoid showing you this, so that I don't have this conversation with you. All I can tell you is that it's a scar from the war.
-There's something that puzzles me, because the necklace you have and the one next to Luan look alike.
-That's just a coincidence.
-Coincidence? -You know you'll have to explain a lot of things after this, but I can see you don't want to talk. I'm just telling you there will be retaliation for what happened
-Retaliation?
-A while ago the director called me and asked me what happened. A boy from this school was already rumored to be dead, but you saved him, yet the ministry will send an email and investigate what happened, you are involved too, then we talk, it's getting dark and I have to make a report.
They both walked and went to the group of people to return to the dormitory.
Snaider took his jacket off his uniform and threw it at them.
-Cover up.

Alison left the place where she was talking to her brother and headed towards the group in her living room.
There were some happy faces, after they were informed that the boy had appeared and was alive.
Kevin, the classmate who had thrown Luan, was catching his breath with support from his classmates.
Liz and Samantha walked over to Alison.
-You look tired, let's go," said the blue-haired girl.
He nodded his head and Hana walked up to them.
-We can talk," she asked.
-We can talk," she asked. "Vice President, please, he's tired right now, so I'll take a rain check," said Liz.
-Okay, I'll see you tomorrow at Paradise Park," she replied.
And the three of them left for the school dormitories.
Liz disappeared for a moment, leaving her two classmates alone.
When they were about to enter, Samantha noticed, but said nothing.
When Alison entered, she took off the jacket her brother had given her and the shirt the girl had given her.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
-Wait, I'd like to thank you in a way, you could train together.
-Don't worry, I did it for Luan, not for you. After all, you got him into this.
She left, and left Alison almost with words in her mouth, who wanted to explain what she had felt a while ago.

The next day North Waltz School was a little calmer from the panic over the disappearance in the Luan River.
Classroom 2 of the first year did not receive any classes due to the situation.
In the central clinic, doctors gave the report early in the morning, an emergency doctor on his way to the people who were there. His two cousins were there, and Saul was the class representative.
-He had some small cuts from the dragging, and a lot of water entered his lungs, in the early morning he was able to expel all of it, but there are several things that do not add up, despite all of the above he is well, he can receive visitors.
The first person to enter was Hana. When she entered the room she approached her cousin. He was aware of what he was doing, his hair was unplucked, and you could see the scratches a little.
- Do you remember what happened yesterday," asked her cousin.
He touched his head and said.
-I remember being thrown into the water, I felt someone fall on me and hit me on a rock. Then I remember Liz, she was on top of me, and she looked strange, next to me was Alison... I think that's all.
-They saved you, nobody can explain how they managed to find you. Almost 40 minutes passed.
-..... Where is she?
-Possibly in the bedroom, he looked exhausted and had a deep cut on his arm.... But what do you think of your friend .....
-I think he's a great person, even though he prefers to be alone and isolated from everything.
-And Liz?
- Uh, her?
-Hey...she was the first girl who talked to me at school. -Why?
-You don't think there's anything wrong with Liz.
-Uh, why do you say that?
-Besides you, Alison and Samantha, she doesn't have any other friends, despite being a very communicative person.
-You don't have to be friends with everyone at school, why do you care?
-Nothing, just doubts....better rest.
