NovelEnglishP2- Chapter 0005 Klaus I drag Xavi from the water, thanking whoever was listening for our survival. I just hoped the rest would make it out alive.
Xavi's white fur clings to his lean body as he climbs up into the dry cove that doesn't seem to be affected by the waves. He shakes the water from his fur, sprayingwith the salty droplets of the ocean before collapsing as he tries to catch his breath.
I watch the waves behind him. They were changing. Somehow slowing down and no longer acting as if they had a mind of their own.
"Magic?" I murmur, looking for the clouds that were usually left behind, but there was nothing.
The waves almost cto a standstill as a blood-curdling scream fills my ears.
"What the hell?" I step back into the calm water, looking up at Indy as her body twists and turns in the air.

"Panicking." I glance at the rocks slowly disappearing beneath the water rising around us. It was still and calm, almost like it was preparing to break Indy's fall.
"Is she doing this?" I ask Xavi as he swims towards me.
Xavi just stares as we tread water. 'I've never... I've only seen dark magic.' Her back hits the water, sending up a huge spray. While the water bobs, I swim out to her and drag her into the shallows, pulling her floppy body from the water.
'Is she alive?' He asks as I check her airways.
"Yes." I confirm, "Shock, I think. I have seen something like this before. The body shuts down when it can't process what happened." Two more splashes and Brax and Orion swim towards us.
"Amy?" I ask while Brax checks Indy.
"She fucking pushed her!" There is so much hatred in his tone.
"Thalia?" I ask in confusion. She hadn't been in the room.
"Amelia!" Brax spits. "Indy somehow calmed the waves, and Amelia lost her shit. Pushed Indy over and called her a Witch." Brax lifts Indy and retreats into the cove, followed by Orion. It was fine for now, but we couldn't stay here forever. The moment the sea returns to its usual chaos, we will be trapped.
"She can control earth and water?" I mutter "I don't fucking know!" Brax snaps.
"What do we do? Amy is trapped. We can't leave her to die." "I think she was always supposed to take us to the bedroom," Brax growls as he brushes Indy's sodden hair back from her face.
I was about to say something when he shook his head. "Her soul is..." He frowns and sighs. "It is the worst that I've ever seen." "Worse than Neahs?" I remember our conversation about Neah. He was fascinated with her soul. but had never understood how she wasn't completely broken.
"Neahs was and is different. Cracks that have slowly healed with acceptance of her Lycan. Do you know how rare that is? Amelia's..." He throws his eyes to the rocks above us. "Hers is cracked and full of holes, held together by the faintest strands. She is not the person she once was, whoever that was. She shouldn't be able to survive with a soul like that." "You think Thalia is controlling her?" He kicks off his water-logged boots, "You said the bitch and her men walked away after she realised she couldn't hurt you. I think she knew Amelia would take us to a place we were unlikely to escape." He passes Indy to Orion.

"Sometimes, when they are that broken, there isn't much of a soul left to read. I can't have been the only one to have not trusted her." He looks around at all of us.
'He is saying she can't be helped. That her death is inevitable.' Xavi mutters to me.
'Do you really believe that? She has Kitson blood. Neah has always bounced back.' 'From what you have told me, Neah has the family she has always wanted and needed. A family that loves her and honestly, I'm looking forward to meeting her. But Amy hasn't had that in we don't know how long, and this is the first tthat I have sensed Brax's sincerity.' "You think we should leave her behind?" I mutter in surprise.
"Do you really think we are getting back inside that place?" Brax tuts, his tone returning to its usual sarcastic state.
She was a prisoner, and she didn't deserve to die at the hands of Thalia.
'You already tried to help.' Xavi reminds me, 'Sometimes, it is out of our control.' It still didn't feel right to leave her behind. Hopefully, she would find her own way out of this mess.
As darkness falls, we take turns watching the sea, sleeping, or keeping an eye on Indy. Everyone was exhausted, and this cove seemed like a perfect hiding spot for now.
Indy groans as she starts coming
