CHAPTER 13

l2

Idrys dropped to his knees and screamed in pain just as he stepped out of the bungalow to meet Fyar; he was to show her a few more of his fighting techniques. He had met up with Jug and Rug’s brother, Bug (he had been close guessing the name), after he and Fyar left her boat two days before and had taken care of Bug with a few punches; Bug was bigger than his brothers and took a little more work, but not much. After seeing how well he handled himself, she had been intrigued and asked him to show her.

But as quickly as the pain set upon him, it va nished. He was left panting with sweat dripping down his face. He wondered why it stopped. Was she just reminding him that she was there? She must have broken through the shield Flash erected.

“Are ye well?” Flash rushed over to him a few moments later, having heard his scream, and helped him to his feet.

“Yes, I think.” He rubbed his hand over the mark. For a couple of days he had been free. “I am afraid the bitch is back.”

“Fuck.” She paced for a minute or two, working out a way to strengthen her shields.

“But ‘twas strange, the pain just stopped, as if ‘twas cut off.” He leaned back against the bungalow wall.

“Might I see it?” She didn’t wait for him to answer and pushed his shirt and jerkin to the side. Holding her hand above it, she called the mark forth. It started to surface, but then disappeared. She called it again, but this time nothing happened. She tried yet again and still nothing. “Night… nae longer can I bring it up.”

“What does this mean?”

“I think…” She tried putting more strength into the call and again nothing. She smiled up at him. Convinced the insane woman to remove it Boots must have. “I think ‘tis gone.”

“Cast a shield spell you did, might it be in force? Mayhap she was not strong enough to hold the connection.”

“Nae. The mark is gone. My shield spell would not have hidden the mark, it just kept that woman from finding ye and adding to yer pain.”

“So the curse is broken? But how?”

She smiled. “Ye may want to give Boots a very large kiss upon his return.”

“Boots is going to be getting quite a lot from me when he returns. A kiss…” He grinned. “A kiss shall only be the beginning. But…”

“Why do ye question what is?”

“It seems… For nigh ten years I have suffered that mark and ‘tis suddenly gone, as if ‘twas never there. Should not there be more… Just more?”

“If ye wish for celebration, then tonight come down to the main bungalow and we shall make merry until the sun crests the horizon. Is that not what ye had in mind?”

“I know not what I… ‘Tis strange to me, to finally be free. I want to dance and sing, I… I wish Boots were here.”

“Soon enough he will return and then ye shall make merry all over again with him.
