《Heavens Light (A Magi Fanfic)》Chapter 11: Bad News
Advertisement
I ran into Mabel's room startling her as she sat on the bed. I panted, closing the door and locking it.
"Hey Mabel, what you doing?" I said walking over to her and sitting down next to her.
"Nothing much, I see you got a new outfit and it looks really wet." she said shaking her head with a smile. The door started to shake scaring us both.
"Ashlin, let me in, come on." I heard Alibaba on the other side of the door whining.
"No, in order for you to come in you have to do a favor for me." I said walking to the door.
"Fine, what do you want me to do." he said not pleased with me.
"You have to steal Jafar's hat and bring it back to me, you can take on other person with you to help." I said smiling evil while Mabel was laughing.
"There is no way in hell I'm doing that, I'll die if I tried, please don't make me." he said begging. I opened the door to see him sitting on the ground rocking back and forth hugging his knees. I kneeled down and looked at him.
"I was just joking, come on." I said laughing while pulling him up walking into the room.
"Why is he wet, too?" Mabel asked a little confused.
"She pushed me into the freezing cold pound out in the garden, then I chased her down and hugged her getting her wet, too." Alibaba said glaring at me.
"At least I'm not a guy wearing a flower crown." I said pointing at the flower crown still on his head. He just rolled his eyes at me and looked away.
"Haha, you look like your dating on how you act." Mabel said teasing us. Me and him looked at each other and then looked away blushing.
"As if." I said with a huff.
"Couldn't agree more." he said crossing his arms. Hearing that made my heart sink, it felt horrible hearing that from him. I looked down and frowned.
"Ashlin, what's wrong?" Mabel said walking over to me and looking at me.
"It's just, I haven't seen my brother for a about a year and I really miss him." I said lying to cover up what I'm really feeling, but just thinking about it made me feel even worse.
"I'm going back to my room." I said walking off to the door and walking out. I walked into my room and closed the door slowly. I sighed as I went to the balcony, looking at the afternoon sun.
"Ashlin, it's Jafar, I have a letter from your parents." I heard Jafar say walking in, I smiled and took the letter from him.
"Thanks." I said politely, he nodded and walked out. I opened the letter setting my arms on the railing to read it. I read through the first part and frowned.

Tears streamed my eyes but continued reading.
I slumped to the ground, trying my best to hold in the tears. I looking inside the envelope and pulled out the other letter from by brother.
I couldn't hold it in anymore I let the tears flow as I sat in the corner of the balcony, hugging my knees, crying all alone with no one around. At the edge of the paper I could see some blood which was more likely his blood. I sat there for a while not stopping, my heart was broken, the pain was horrible, all could do was cry know that he will never come back.
"Ashlin you in here." I heard Alibaba say as he walked through the door. I didn't move, I just sat there crying, I didn't bother looking up. He soon spotted me and ran to me.
"Ashlin, what's wrong, did something happen?" he asked worried. He never seen me like this but I didn't care. He squated down to look at me. I quickly wrapped my arms around him crying into his chest. He was shocked as he saw my red swollen eyes, tears falling down my face. I buried my face into is chest so he couldnt see my face anymore. He returned the hug and gentle stroked my hair trying to get me to calm down. It was warm in is arms, I felt safe like no one could hurt me. I dropped the letter as it slowly fell to the ground. He saw the letter fall and picked it up starting to read it, his eyes grew wide as he read. He frowned once he was done and looked at me. He hugged me tighter, trying his best to comfort me. I sobbed quitely in his arms as I felt his warm hand stroke my hair. I sorted to get sleepy, so closed my eyes as everything faded into darness.
*Alibaba pov*
"This is impacting her really bad, I've never seen her suffer like this before." I thought as I held her in my arm, stroking her hair. Her body soon relaxed as I looked down at her. She cried herself to sleep from exhaustion. I picked her up into my arms bridal style and layed her on the bed so she can sleep. Her face looked so innocent and sweet when she was asleep. I sat down in the edge of the bed making sure she was fully asleep. I moved the hair she had in front of her face behind her ear. I frowned at her with her eyes all red from crying so much. The sun was starting to set as a small breeze blew into the room. I looked back down at Ashlin as she slept soundly. I leaned forward and kissed her forehead and got up, walking to the door. I quietly walked out and shut the door as quiet as possible. I walked through the halls with my mind filled with thoughts of Ashlin.

"I just hope she will be ok." I thought as I frowned.
"Alibaba!" I heard a cheerful voice call to me, I looked up and spotted the others coming back from the market. Aladdin ran up to me with his cheerdul smile but disappeared when he saw my frown.
"What's wrong?" he asked as the other stood behind him.
"Quinn, Isabelle, can I talk to you for a minute." I said with the same frown. They looked at each other worried but soon agreed and followed me away from Aladdin and Hakuryuu.
"Tomorrow I want you to go to Ashlin's room and she how she's doing, she not doing so well." I said making their eyes grow wide.
"What happened, tell me now!" Isabelle said yelling. The guys looked at us worried and concerned. I looked at the ground when I remembered her crying.
"Her brother was murdered by an assassin, she was crying horribly, I sat there with her calming her down until she fell asleep." I said looking back at the two. They both had large frowns on their faces. Quinn put a hand on my shoulder.
"Thank you for being with her, this has probably put a really big impact an her, she loved her brother with all her heart and now it's broken to peices." Quinn said walking past me with Isabelle heading to there rooms.
"We'll check on her tomorrow." Isabelle said giving me a reassuring smile. I nodded and walked over to the two boys with worried expressions. I walked past them and stopped a little ways before turning my head and looking back.
"If you we're wondering, Ashlin's brother past away."I said before turning back around walking to my room. I soon hear foot steps coming towards me. They caught up to me Hakuryuu on my right and Aladdin on my left. We walked in silents until I reached my room door.
"Are you going to be ok, you look like you think it was your fault." Hakuryuu asked me as I put my hand on the doorhandle.
"Yea, it just I wish I could be the one to comfort her all the time when stuff like this happens, I don't like seeing her like that." I said opening the door.
"You've fallen in love with her haven't you, Alibaba." Aladdin said as I stepped into my room before stopping, I turned to them and smiled little.
"Yes, I have, I love her more then anything, but I don't think she feels the same way." I said looking away. "I'll see you tomorrow." I said as I closed the door. I walked over to my bed as I layed down on my back with my hands behind my head. I stared at the ceiling thinks about the events of today.
"She was so happy, but then in charged drastically." I muttered to myself. I couldn't stop thinking about her, I wanted to comfort her in the best way possible to fix her broken heart. I just sighed and closed my eyes trying to fall asleep.
*Quinn's pov*
I walked down the hall to my room along with Isabelle. I stopped in front of Ashlin's room, worried about her.
"Quinn, she'll be fine for now, let her sleep." Isabelle said grabbing my arm and tugged on it. I pulled my arm back and went to her door opening it. I peeked inside to see her laying on the bed fast asleep. I walked inside and walked over to the bed. I kneeled down so I could get a better look at her face. Her eyes were red and puffy while tears still fell down her face. Isabelle came in and knelt down next to me.
"Even in her sleep, she's still crying." I said grabbing the teddy bear on the night stand that she got from Chloe and placed it in her hand. She tighten her grip on in and held in in her arms against her chest.
"I've never seen her like this, I hope she can handle the pain." Isabelle said standing up and leaving. "you can stay here, I'll check on you two in the morning."
"Alright, good night." I said. She nodded and left to her own room concern filled within her. I grabbed the pillow she wasn't using and placed it on the floor. I went to my room quickly grabbed my blanket off the bed and little Rea with her blanket and went back to Ashlin's room. I places Rea in the corner of the room, but she didn't stay there. She walked over to the bed and jump up cuddling next to Ashlin.
"I guess you feel bad for her, too." I said as I covered myself with the blanket and layed down. As soon as I did I heard Ashlin mumbling in her sleep.
"Kyle don't.......go." I heard her say I sat back up and looked at her. She was sweating horrible and panting. I placed a hand on her head stroking her hair hoping it will help. She soon calmed down and went back into a deep sleep. I sighed as I layed back down, stared out of the patio window watching the sun disappear from the horizon, letting the beautiful stars come out with the moon.
"Kyle, if you can hear me, please watch over Ashlin, she's devastated without you." I thought before closing my eyes and falling asleep.
