Alan was about to protest but Kevin put a hand on his arm to appease him and he told Ian while taking the Teleportation Talisman paper that he was still handing to Alan : "We will leave if it gets out of hand, but we will come back later to get you."
Ian nodded and turned his head again towards the lake to look straight ahead, he was finally going to become himself and be able to use 100% of his abilities, so no matter how much pain he would feel, he would endure it, he said to them : "I'm ready."
Alan swore again, he was rarely scared, and he had to admit that he was really freaking out this time.
He was scared of hurting his friend and of what was going to happen to him, and he was also scared that Kevin would get hurt.
Kevin who had kept his hand on his forearm squeezed it and said to him : "It's going to be fine, do it ... You have to do it, Ian has the right to regain his freedom !"
