TAVIAN
What happened before us was like nothing we'd ever seen. We couldn't hide our shock as we stared blankly at Dahlia.
One moment, we thought we were done for, and the next moment, the flames were being swallowed into her wrist like they were nothing. Father's words kept ringing in my mind, and there was no doubt that she wasn't the one the prophecy talked about.

She released a deep sigh and her legs gave off from beneath her as she crumpled down to the floor. I didn't know when I rushed to her and caught her in my arms. She stared at me with droopy eyes, her surprise evident.
"Are you okay?" I didn't know when the words came out, as I held her tight. She nodded faintly, her eyelids fluttering.
Rhydian and Kayden walked towards us. Kayden's shocked expression was still plastered on his face, while Rhydian looked pissed now. I could already tell what was coming before he said the words.
