Scorpinac: Yep, Trenton will not be redeemed. Thanks for catching that, I'll fix it.

"Wei," Lee groggily said.
"How are you feeling?" he asked as Sakura eyes opened.
"Better, but I doubt I could summon a gentle breeze nor less a lightning bolt." Lee said.
"I don't think we've got enough magic to activate the Sweet card." Sakura Moaned and cuddled closer to Lee.
"Has either of them woken up?" Lee asked.
"No. Julian is being taken care of by Ruby. Meilin is at Wulf's. She took a bad shot from Trenton. Shienna is also down." Wei reported.
"Shienna on her own?" Lee asked.
"Eli is taking care of her, but we have a problem."
"What other problem could we have on top of all of the other problems we've got?" Lee asked.
"The elders are demanding that Meilin return. Her presence in their eyes is unnecessary." Wei explained and Lee groaned in frustration.
"Anything happen to Madison?" Lee asked sarcastically and Sakura whaps him weakly upside his head for asking such a question.
"Your father had a conversation with your brother...he kept saying that he did it for you and..." Wei started but Sakura stopped him.
"I don't want to hear his excuses at the moment. It's his fault we're in this mess to begin with." she said then regretted using so much of her strength to say it. She falls back against Lee and falls asleep.
"How long are we going to be in this condition?" Lee asked.
"Eli said another two to three days. Plus there's something else. Because of what Sakura did, your magics can no longer be separated. If one of you die..."
"Then we both die. I wouldn't have it any other way." Lee said.
"the elders won't...'
"I'm tired of them, Wei. I know I'm not old enough to take over as head of my family, but their constant complaining and interfering is getting to be intolerable." Lee said and closed his eyes for a moment.
"Unfortunately, there's no way not to stop them from having Meilin sent back."
"Her parents?"
"They want her back, but Yelan is trying to convince them otherwise."
"For Wulf's sake I hope my mother convinces them."

"Where are they!" Trenton ranted. I can't feel them, but I know they are alive!" He was trying to find his cousin and Lee, but their weak magical auras seemed to be missing. 'Or, Eli,' he thought growing furious by the moment. "Eli has shield their weak auras from my senses. Eli! I shall kill you!"

He walked the streets still trying to convince himself that he had done the right thing. He had watched as Lee fell, but his sister had not accepted his actions. Then, his left eye met with a fist of a furious Ruby.
"You dumb son of a...no, I won't insult your mother. You are the dumbest brother on the face of the planet! You can't see that Lee fucking loves your sister! You still believe in your delusion world that she needs to be protected from him! Your actions just didn't effect Sakura, they also effect my Julian! And when you mess with that which is mine I get very overprotective and want the blood of whoever wronged my Julian! And Tori, you wronged Julian!"
"I did it to protect..." Tori tried to defend yet again but the fist that was sent his way caught him square in the jaw.
"If I ever hear of you pulling another dumb stunt like the one one you just pull I'll make sure you don't walk again!" Ruby spat and walked away. She stopped, turned, and kicked Tori right in the nuts. She left Tori laying on the sidewalk holding his balls.

"Why must you be my care taker?" Shienna growled.
"Because, there isn't anyone that can take care of you. They are all busy either taking care of someone else or being taken care of." Eli answered. He scowled feeling the wards buckle from someone's violent attack. He sighed knowing that Trenton was wanting to fight and probably knew that he was responsible for Trenton's inability to find Lee and Sakura.

"Come out you coward and fight!" Trenton demanded and avoided an attack from Eli. Trenton turned but no one was their. He snarled and tried to find his foe, but he feels another attack hit him in the back. He turned to meet the attacker, but no one was their. Then, he feels a large build up of magic. He tries to locate it, but he feels a tugging sensation. He turns to feel where the tug was coming from to see a small tear in the fabric of reality. His eyes widen knowing where that hole lead to. He flies away from Eli's place and keeps on flying.
'Shit! I can't even open a portal to hell!' he furiously thought as he flew back to his hideout.

'That's right, run away. Now you know I mean business.' Eli thought watching Trenton flee for his life. 'One day, we'll be ready to send you to hell.'

"How are they?" Aidon asked over the phone.
"Their magic is slowly but surely coming back to them. Lee is eating more solid foods. I believe he believes that if he gets better then Sakura will get better."" Wei explained.
"And Meilin situation?"
"Lee has been on the phone constantly with the main house...I think he's been giving them a piece of his mind."
"Do you think..."
"From what I'm understanding from Matilda, she's getting in contact with her brother, Wulf's father, and is explaining the situation to him. I believe there will be a butting of heads between the two families over this."
"They are only fifteen...Meilin's parents..."
"Unfortunately, Meilin's mother tried to arrange a marriage for her daughter and Lee. That gave the elders more say in Meilin's life. That's what will be the crux in this whole situation."
"Could..."
"I don't know if the Drumhildes would want that drastic of a step to be taken. Eli would be able to stop this, but he's got to protect Shienna."
"I'm just glad Josh is keeping Madison safe. Samantha doesn't need to get back into this mess." Aidon said and Wei agreed with the other an's assessment.
