Darcious waited no longer. SHe leapt into the lava without hesitation. Warmth always felt odd to her, yet refreshing. She opened her firey eyes and looked around. This was another one of her powers, tolerating heat to the extreme. SHe saw a patch of lava that glowed brighter than the rest. Immediatly she "swam over". There was the key, unharmed. Calypso must've put a lot of energy into this spell. Darcious reached out but the orb sank lower. Darcious was running out of breath quickly but she couldn't stopThis was her chance. To be redeemed of all the sin and hurt she had in the past.

Darcious pushed through the magma and touched the orb. Her paw grabbed and gripping it as she swam as close at she could to the top. Darcious wasn't going to make it. She knew that, but she also knew that this orb was. Darcious used the last of her engergy to hurl the orb out of the lava and onto the land. She sunk deeper.

Alexis turned toard the lava, anxiously waiting. A glowing orb flew out of the lava and landed right on the ground. Alexis turned towards the lava. Nothing. Alexis looked down and stared at the orb sadly. It seemed like forever before anything happened. SHe reached out to grab it-

"DON'T TOUCH THAT YET!"

ALexis whipped aorund.

"It's still hot." Darcious went into a coughing fit and Alexis bounded over to hug her and stopped. Darcious was radiating heat.

"And so are you." Alexis laughed through tears. SHe didn't know why she was crying, no one else seemed to be. Darcious smiled.

"YEah, so NO ONE touch me for a while."

"How are you back?"

"I passed out, stopped breathing. I was a bit weak but sunk faster to my lair. Started breathing again. Came back. I'm alive."
