Adrianna smiled and fell asleep.

Natali allowed him to pull her close. She noticed he was purposely keeping his other handin his pocket and she gently reached out and tugged his hand out of his pocket. She gently opened his fingers and saw the same black spot only it was much smaller and less black. She looked into his eyes and slowly drew a circle around it with her fingers and the circle glowed. Her eyes grew black and the darkness gently sucked off the spot. She smiled when it was gone and then her eyes returned to normal. All that was left was a small scar and she passed out.

"Natali!" Adrianna said as tears started to fall. She took Natali's hand and held it between hers.

im alright Adri....... Just... Tired... Natali thought weakly barely feeling her friends touch.

Natali.....you can fight through this. You'll bear Simon's children. Adrianna thought quickly.

Simon held Natali closed and wished that he could do something for her. He wanted the pain to go away from her and for it to go to him. He was suppose to be her protector and yet he hadn't protected her at all.

Chase placed a hand on Adri's shoulder and hoped that Natali was okay.

Adri hugged Chase and started crying.

Natali drifted slowly as she was in the dark black void. She felt weak... She couldn't move, she couldn't speak, she could hardly think, and pain racked her small body. She then saw a small light and began drifting towards it as she floated along with the darkness. It was as if she was being called to something. When she got closer she realized the glowing things were gates. A glowling man robed in light smiled as he spotted her in the distance and waved. Natali wanted to wave back and tell him she was coming but she couldn't. He then turned to the gates and openedthem wide. Her eyes grew as she watched the spectical and was touched that he was going to let her into heaven. As she got closer her breathing gradually slowed in real life and her heart was begning to slow as well.

Chase hugged Adri close to him and let her cry.

Simon could feel it, her dieing and it hurt him. Hurt him with every passing second that it was hard to believe. He then ralized what also ment to be her guardian. When she died he died. She was the only thing he was living for right now and he had to protect her. He then layed her down on the ground and placed a hand over her heart. LIght began to seep from his hand and into her. Pain raked over Simons face but he didn't care. " please, live." he whispered as more light flooded into her.

Adri shivered and closed her eyes.

Natali felt an elecetrict stab in her heart and coughed. She suddenly stood with a strength she knew wasn't her own. The flow of darkness around her kept moving and pulled at her ankles to go as well. She then looked at the smiling man but felt something pull her away. She turned her back to him and looked to see adri crying in chase's arms and Simon trying to be brave and bring her back. And when she saw her own impassive body she couldn't take it. She began walkig back and the current of the icy cold darkness grew against her. She struggled trying to go back and griped falling into the cold water. She shivered and managed to hold onto the bottom as a huge wave washed over her. She stood back up and forced herself to walk forword. She coughed out the dark water as another wave hit her almost making her topple backwards. But she wasn't going to give up. Her body was screaming in pain and protest to her fighting and she was practically walking on will alone now. She was nearly there and reached out to the vision and a wave hit her. On her knees she crawled towards it and with the last of her strength she reached out and fell into her body once again. Natali took in a ragged breath and her hand grabbed Simon's wrist in a flash of movement. She opened her eyes weakly and smiled. "Im okay... I'm not leaving..." she whispered hoarsely.

"Natali! oh thank god." She said as she hugged her best friend.

Simon hugged her also and the pain started to go away. "dont you dare do anything like that again." he said as he looked at natali and Chase join in hugging her.

Natali was overwhelmed but happy as everyone embraced her. She smiled and then coughed. She turned away and coughed up water and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand realizing just how real her fight back was. She then looked at Simon and smiled weakly. "I did come back though." she said softly.

"Natali don't ever leave me." Adrianna said as she hugged her. She was so relieved she started crying again.

Simon smiled and nodded, "true, but I still dont want you to do that again." he said as he looked at Natali and Chase smiled and whipped some of Adriannas tears away.

"I almost lost my sister! I'm allowed to be a crying mess." Adrianna said.

"I won't...." Natali said and coughed again. She hugged her friend back and couldn't help but start crying too. Happieness washed over her but pain washed over her as well. The black poison spot pulsed with horrible pain and she could hardly take it. But she managed to keep quiet except for the sobs.

((pal don't forget blackthorn))

((Poison needs Venom))

Adrianna smiled the two crying girls held eachother.

Simon hugged Natali even tighter and whipped her tears away. "I promise not to let anything happen to you again." he said as he looked at her and kissed her forhead.

Chase smiled and nodded, "we will both keep a eye on you and Adrianna."

Natali looked into Adri's eyes and then laughed quietly. "We look hoorible..." she said wiping away more tears. She sniffled and looked at her hands. They still had Simon's blood on the fingure tips and she quickly folded them in her lap.

Adri smiled at Chase. "Prove it." Her voice soft with playfulness.

Simon wrapped his arm around Natali and pulled her close. He didn't want anything ot happen to her and kissed her cheek. "your still beautiufll in my eyes." he said as he looked at her.

Chase smiled "okay" he said and kissed her passinatly.

Adri smiled and kissed him back just as passionately.

Chase kissed her back deeply as he pulled her closer.
