Chapter Six

Farren couldn’t get clean. The water poured down on him, but the smell of smoke and burning building didn’t fade. He’d used his power to subdue the fire outside the dorm rooms. He hoped no one had seen his work. If this kept up he’d be exposed quicker than if he shouted his djinn roots in the middle of the quad.

He’d spent several minutes making sure everyone got out of there safely. Too many random fires had occurred in buildings that should’ve been protected. Farren knew accusations would start to fly soon and who better to blame than a fire mage who had a bit more magic than anyone had expected.

Dan.

Tears dripped down Farren’s face. He wished the dark-haired mage were in the shower with him. He ached to be held at that moment. He might not deserve it, but Farren wanted comfort. The fire snake slid from Farren’s wrist then curled around his body. The itch from the scales across his skin was driving him mad.

“Could you please stop moving?”

A steamy fog filled the shower stall. His skin burned as the snake slid off Farren’s chest and swirled around his ankles. The fire serpent blazed around the drain, steam wafted up from where the water touched the flaming snake.

“What are you doing? Are you going to vanish like most avatars?”

Farren jolted when the snake’s voice slipped into his mind.

“I must remain with you. It is the only way I can guard you all the time. You are precious to my father. As one of the few remaining djinn, the great Xiuhcoatl has declared you one of his children. I am not just your avatar, but your spirit protector.”

Farren sighed. The honor of being beloved by a god was going to get him kicked out of school and lonely, once Dan dumped him for being a snake-wearing freak.

He turned off the water. “Maybe you can stay off me at night. I don’t think I can sleep with you sliding across me.”

Not to mention he didn’t want Dan to rub his hand against the serpent and accidentally set it in motion. Anything besides Dan was one too many creatures in his bed.

The serpent slithered up the side of the tub, apparently able to stick to anything. “I have bonded with you, we are now one. I will always look out for you, Farren, leader of the djinn.”

Farren shivered at the title. Goose bumps traveled up his spine.

“I’m not a leader.” Farren struggled to find the words to convince the reptile. “I can’t even control my family. Besides, there aren’t many of us left. You said that yourself. Wouldn’t I have to have someone to lead?”

The snake hissed. It took a moment for Farren to realize the creature was laughing. “There will be more. They are scattered. Both fire mages and djinn will be drawn to you. You will lead them all to a new understanding. You will be their mentor and their policeman. Without you, the species will die out from self-destruction and your kind will truly be no more.
