Chapter 35

I could feel myself weaken quickly. The specks that belonged to the Lost tried to stay with me, but they were being dragged in as well. Then a fragment like fire and ice shifted.

Cold poured through my body and Cole's black eyes widened. He tried to pull away, but I bore down harder. That cold, dark piece of the void was retreating from me. Cole swung his fist into my side and we broke contact.

The damage was already done.

The void had come out of me, but it had not passed into Cole. It was out.

The small piece hung in the air at the top of the hill. The world paused as though taking a breath, and all eyes were on the tiny ball of darkness that lingered in the air. A small breeze picked up. Within seconds, the air turned wilder, pulling at our clothes as it dragged past us. Soon, the wind roared through and was sucked into the dark mass. I could see the little spot grow larger.

Images and emotional vines of the Path were also being sucked in. Cole and I were the closest to the whirling mass. I could see the terror on his face as we clung to each other.

Managing to take few steps away was all I could muster; the strength of the object was too strong. With Cole's help, we managed to push a further step away before being overpowered and we began to slide the other way. We each tightened our grip and tried harder, but we weren't having any luck. Cole looked across the clearing, then at me, and I could see his fear.

When he let go, I tightened my grip, but he easily pried himself away from me. He spoke, but the sound was lost, and it was too late.

I watched in horror as Cole was torn apart before my eyes. There was nothing left of him.

As the void fed, it became stronger. My mind went blank after watching Cole disappear, but it sprung back into action when I felt myself being dragged in. Looking around, I could see that my friends were having the same problem.

Panic welled when I swept the clearing for Logan. Had he been pulled in? Rider was further away. It looked like he was trying to work his way over to me, but I could tell he would never make it. With each step he took, he slid closer to the void. Vincent was on the other side of the clearing, trying to maintain his footing. He was yelling, but the sound, like everything else, was lost in the swirling mass.

In the Path, I tried to tie myself to the ground. Shoving energy down, I rooted to the spot. The void tugged, and ties to the Path wavered while my mind groped with what could be done.

An indistinguishable barrage of words came from behind me. A large chunk of granite sped past my head and sunk into the depths of the void. I held my breath and wondered if throwing the box in do anything?

Nothing happened.
