Uprising.

A gaze was drawn upon the warm and colorful building, a building which looked so sweet, the building held deep regret.

Few months had passed, I've gotten better physically, folding my fingers, but my power was still depleting.

Fortunately, no one had noticed, "So when are you guys going to leave?"I asked with a tired voice, basically face palming.

The silver girl was next to me painting my nails, Ray and Eric were arguing about something,a sea blue demigod sat close to me paying attention to whatever was happening, while still staying level headed.

The only person i found missing was Maria, it was a good thing though she was missing, i didn't want the chaos to expand further.

Because of the school half burning down, they had much more time to visit me, but all at the same time?

"I can't help it.. I'm really busy any other time.."Urei sighed softly, right now she was basically giving me free pedicures.

"Yep, she's right, when i'm not here I'm studying alright"Ray had admitted, which means he was pausing in the middle of an argument for.

I didn't believe even a bit that Ray was studying, sure, I'll give it to you that Ray does have some fantastic street smarts, but academically he kind of flunks.

Personally I could say that the only thing that could've gotten him to Meria was because of his street smarts.

He really was a unique person, just not smart. "Can you quiet down a bit?"I asked with a soft voice, it was as if I was a mother dealing with her children .

Neither Ray nor Eric stopped arguing as I told them to, taking a deep breath I yelled for the first time in a few years.

"Can you quiet down a bit!"I exclaimed as the two stopped arguing with a surprised expression, they seemed shocked, they had never heard me raise my voice before.

Same with Urei and Ace, the silver haired girl paused on painting my nails, Ace just kind of stared at me a bit surprised.

It really did take an impact on my throat though, I thought it might have healed fully, but it seems that i needed more rest.

My hand rested temporarily on my neck, soothing and massaging it a little, "Here."Eric said surprisingly somehow to the right of me, he handed me throat medicine.

It did weird me out a bit when he just had that on hand, but it's Eric, what wrong can he do?

Naively I took the medicine gulping it down, without a single hint of suspicion.

My throat was expecting a bitter taste, instead it was a sweet mango flavored.

"Mango.."I muttered under my breath just loud enough for Eric and the others to hear, a bright smile fell upon the blonde demigod, "You like it?"He asked curiously.

I nodded slowly, does mango flavored throat medicine really exist? Just as if Eric had somehow read my mind, "Mrs.Erina brewed it especially for you."Eric proudly had said.

I honestly don't know how Mrs.Erina would know my favorite fruit, but i didn't bother to dig any further than just a kind act.

"Urei, can I ask where Maria is?"I asked curiously, still seeing her painting my nails, but then she paused.

"Maria? She said that she was here earlier so she's not coming today.."The silver haired demigod responded confused.

I don't recall ever seeing Maria earlier today, if i had to be honest, i was up all night too.

But then the others jumped in, "She told you that? She told me that she had an appointment so she wasn't coming today."Ray replied.

"Maria told me that she was just busy..''Eric chimed in, this is weird.. Maria lying about her whereabouts to her best friend and close friends?

Immediately I knew what was happening, quickly I tried to get out of the bed but felt vulnerable to the floor. My body was still severely weak from the cyclops attack.

Eric hurriedly went to my side to help me get up, "Hey, we'll deal with the misunderstanding with Maria.. Get some rest Kylar.''The blonde haired demigod said with a caring tone.

The others nodded agreeing to what Eric had said, i really wonder what side Ray and Ace was on at this point.

Eric laid me back to bed, as I stared at them unsatisfied with their answers, before I could let out another word, they had quickly left, to avoid anytime for negotiating or persuading.

Sighing deeply, with my head facing the ceiling, my nails half painted and half done with pedicures, I just layed there, while my friends were going to save a friend.

Of course don't get me wrong, I'm not upset that i was doing nothing while someone was dying, just upset that another valuable talent in this world will soon meet their end and i'm not just not there to see it.

Maria, no matter how annoying you may be, just be safe and don't die.
