• They drew close, almost touching, hearing each others heartbeat and smelling the other ones sent. Just as Irma was sure they would kiss any second, he suddenly drew away.

    "I can't do this." He sighed.
    "Why not?" She asked, stung.
    "My family wont agree with this."
    She drew back and looked straight into his eyes, "How dare you pick power over love, family over yourself and me."
    "They wont permit it, it's just not right."
    "You don't know me, nothing of my past and my force, and power."
    " I'm know enough."

    She felt torn with hert and her heart seemed to falter. But watching him walk away set off another feeling that was stronger than anying she had felt before. Anger, pure and strong and with it awoke power. It tingled in her fingers and sent heat corsing through her body. Jarda though her weak, she could show him differently.

    But instead of attacking him, she let him walk away knowing that to even hert him slightly would certainly kill her. Neither did she show him her power, deciding that it was his decision not to open his eyes and properly see her and what she was. "Good bye." Was all she wispered before dropping to the floor, with tears silently leaving her eyes. She knew he had heard her faint farewell along with the thud of her body as it landed in defeat on the ground. But he walked on not looking back at the soul that died so quietly and slowly.

    Irma lay there for what felt like hours, she felt the chilly air work it's way through her body, nubming her of pain. The damp earth beneath her feet slowly spreading into her clothes. She should be chilled to the bone but she felt nothing, she could have died and she would not have noticed nor cared. All that was on her mind was Jarda as he was walking away from her weeping body, and letting the shadows infulf him. I will never move again, She thought, I will lye here and die. Suddenly a dark shape moved in the shadows, straight towards her. Irma stiffened and looked at the shape with warry eyes. Just as the numbness began to fade and the sence of fear took over, the clouds moved away from the moon, casting light on the figure to reveal Jarda. He ran towards her and wrapped his arms around her.
    "Your freezing." He gasped.
    "Please don't" she mubbled. "Not if you don't love me."
    "That's why I came back" he sighed, hugging her tighter. " Becouse I love you and I'll always come back to help lift you up."
