Baetool and Scout part 2
She nodded. "Okay; the other ideas?"
"They're harder," he said. "We have to coax that piece out of the afterlife somehow but I don't think Amora would allow that." He explained. "Or you have to die instead of him and somehow convince Amora to let the piece go."Elian shook his head immediately. "No, you're not dying." He said.
"Well, someone has to die and come back!" Talbott said.
"I'm better off dying than you are, Elian." She argued. "What, who's Amora?@
"Queen of the Afterlife," Talbott answered but Elian kept shaking his head. "No."
"Elian I'm like best friends with death." She said.
"I don't care," Elian said and shook his head. "You can still get damaged like I am." He said.
"Honey, I already am." She said. "It comes with the job".
"We'll leave you alone," Talbott said and took Phoenix before leaving with Reese to the kitchen."I don't want you to die for me," Elian said pleadingly.
Reese followed. "And I don't want you dying for me either." She said. "There has to be another way."
"I'm not dying for you, I'm dying for me," Elian responded bluntly.
She was silent for a moment. "I can't let you." She whispered.
"Don't Nat me." She crossed her arms.
He gently kissed her head, "please let me do this, Nat." He said.
"No." she pulled away. "I can't; not when we don't know if there are other options."
"Nat, it's either I die or you die. I don't want you to die," he said. "At least if I die, you can bring me back. If you die, I can't bring you back."
"I can bring myself back." She said quickly.
"We don't need to decide right now." She sighed.
She leaned back on the couch and closed her eyes.
She looked at him. "I really don't want to fight with you over this."
"Then lets not fight. I'm not going to let you do it," he said.
"And I'm not going to let you do it." She said.
"Then I'll just have stay like this then," he said.Talbott piped in, suddenly walking back, "um.... I found a little something else...." he said.
Talbott pursed his lips and looked at Elian. "Um... whoever does it, has to have his blood," he nodded to Elian. "So... a parent... or an offspring or something."
She frowned. "We don't...I mean, you have Amelia." She looked at Elian. "But she's only three years old."
Elian immediately shook his head. "No. no way. Not a chance," he shook his head.
"Is this something we need to do now? Or can it wait?" She asked. "I mean...we want a family someday.." she took Elian's hand.
"Any day, I guess. But sooner is better than later, just in caee he dies without any preparation," Talbott said.
"Alright then. You can call me whenever you're ready so that I can prepare the spell," Talbott said.
((Sorry I'm-im just being dumb me lol))Natalia nodded. "Is this everything then?"
Talbott nodded, "pretty much. Sorry for making you drive all the way here. I assumed you'd want to do it immediately."
"Well if it didn't have to do with either of us dying than we would." She muttered.
Talbott suddenly felt guilty, "I'm sorry."
She sighed. "It's okay. It's just a lot to think about."
Talbott nodded and picked his books up to carry them downstairs to the basement with the rest of his stuff. He didn't go back upstairs.
Elian looked at Phoenix as he crawled back and then smiled.
Reese was behind him. "Sorry; my husband is lost in his archives." She laughed.
Elian smiled and picked Phoenix up again.
Phoenix smiled and held onto him."He really likes you." She smiled.
"I really like him," he smiled and rubbed his head.
Elian listened quietly and looked down at Phoenix.
