A bright light peeled Issa's eyes open and she blinked into the darkness to see a shadowy image pulsate and merge. She blinked a few more times to ensure she was not seeing things as recognition hit. "Aaron?" "Yes." "Dreaming?" "No..." Issa reached out to shaky hand to touch him and found he was not quite tangible...a projection? "How are you doing this--The Congenital placed me in containment..." Aaron smiled the soft cocky smile she had grown to love "Let's just say I am getting by with a little help from my friends..." Oh hell, this was all just too much--Isabella fought back tears--damn hormones...she cried more in the last few months then she had in years. Great. Soon the Templars of Majiks were gonna come and revoke her warrior card. She laughed at her own joke, then moaned softly "Aaron, I am so sorry--I should have been honest with you..." "Later, I don't have a lot of time--the majiki helping me--she's good but not that good...I just wanted to let you know I am on my way..." Isabella sat up abruptly and shook her head at him, "Aaron no, its a trap--they want you, not me...they are trying to provoke your powers..." "I figured out as much, and I may just have to accommodate them..." "Promise me, promise me you won't come in here pulse a-blazin'...no one has hurt me...and you don't have control yet..." Again Aaron grinned, "Does that even sound like my style. I have plans darling...chin up uhmkay..." It was Iss's turn to smile although it was a pitiful looking thing, "Hey, I have been in worse scrapes then this. A-Aaron. Uhm. B-before you go...Before you go--I have to tell you... Issa closed her eyes and braced herself to say something she had never told another soul besides her husband Diomedes, but it just felt--right to say it...now... "Aaron I..." But of course--when she opened her eyes again--Aaron was gone.
