Isaiah 58 :11
"The Lord will guide you continually , And satisfy your soul in drought , And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered garden , And like a spring of water , whose waters do not fail. "
Melinda's P.O.V.
A brother? The thoughts of my parents vanish. I know, I'm supposed to be worried about my parents first. But this is a brother whom my parents haven't mentioned to me at all! Is he my twin? Or an elder brother? Or.... My mind suddenly boils frustratingly. But then.. he is a Christian! Is that the reason why my parents didn't tell about him to me?
I clamp shut my fists, gritting my teeth with clenched taut eyes that are about to tear up.
But my brother wouldn't want me to cry.
'I also wouldn't want you to be dispirited'
Wait... Did just God speak in my mind?
After waiting a little longer with silence I decide that it was God's voice.
Thank You Lord!
My mouth automatically opens leaving a relieved sigh without my permission making it even more awkward. They were looking at me, searching whether I was angry or bitter but my sigh made it...
"Phew! At last! That's a good news!", I nod my head, my curls bobbing vigorously.
But all did not last that good though.
"It is a chance. And I'm not sure if he could be your brother or not. So no need to raise your hopes up", Azur for some reason says heatedly as if we were already enemies!
"Let her have a little hope, man.", Phil tries to soften down him.
"Yeah, what's your problem?", Clary asks a bit too unlike Clary.
"It was looking for my dead sister that made me become a Trynad Necromancer and I don't want you to do the same.", his wistfulness was true from his heart that made a jerking impact to my heart.
"Don't worry, I won't go like that! I already believe in Jesus and God!", my voice contrastingly hit the ceiling, as Clary comfortingly puts her hand over my shoulder.
"Yeah, she's one of the new fledglings!", Phil proudly states with firm shoulders.
"That's good then!", Azur's surprise face was something I think that one would see once in a while. I think maybe that's why, his words ran short!
"Twaaaaaangu! Twaaaaaangu! Twaaaaaangu!", a screech startlingly screams into my vulnerable ears that I had to protect them with my unmoving hands.
"What in the world???", Phil sounded with confusion.
"Quick!Plan B. Plan B We have to think! Something!That's the Blizzardtroopers! They are the armed detectives of the Trynadic World! And they have come to get all of us! We need to outrun them!", Azur's tension mirrored ours as well.
"Azur, I know we have to think fast, but with this tension squeezing me, I can't !" , Clary cries out in frustration stamping her foot.
An awkward moment passes yet again before I come with a conclusion that even baffles myself.
"Well, let's ask Jesus for peace and calmness", I say as some instinct urges me to. Faces look at me with wonder. Especially Azur.
"Yeah, let's pray. Sorry. For rushing.", Azur sighs out with sagged shoulders.
"Heavenly Father, we are gathered here to glorify your awesome presence and your grace in bringing us together in the Way which you have showed us through your Son. Mighty Adonai, we request that you give us the courage and strength from your Spirit so that we can save even more souls to your amazing grace. We especially pray for Melinda's parents that they may have their eyes opened to your light. Let thy Word be a lamp unto our feet and guide us according to the plan you have made for us.
I ask this in the name of our Mighty Lord Jesus Christ, Amen"
Phil's prayer was responded by our chorus of Amen blanching out the ghostly shrieks of Blizzardtroopers that whizz near us after each second.
"I have a lot of questions, including the Son and the meaning of Amen and Adonai...", I blurt out forgetting the seriousness of the situation.
"But it has to wait a while, due to urgent circumstances. ", Azur glares at me as he answers.
"Don't worry, as soon as we get to somewhere safe, I will explain little sister", Phil with a total opposite tone of Azur's assures me.
Have I known before that Phil is older than me?
"Look, why don't we all remove the Trynadic attire and wear human clothes?", Clary shoots her suggestion successfully changing the subject!
"That's actually a good point!", Phil exclaims with a considering look as I give a pat on her partly relieved shoulder.
"But don't you think they saw our faces?", Azur asks breaking the small flare of hope we had on Clary's and mine faces.
"But do they have cameras in the gateway?", Clary asks without giving up her idea.
"Hmm... I've been a guard over there for years and never even once in a while Trynads showed any enthusiasm toward technology. So I wonder whether they would bother at all fixing security cams. Atleast when I escaped there were none!", Phil replies.
"Yeah, thanks to their magical arrogance!", Azur shakes his head with fake sadness forgetting that he contrarily agreed to his opposing idea.
"Soo,", she drawls for effect, "What are the chances they saw our faces?", Clary smirks, satisfied in rationalizing her point. That's my Clary!
"So let's think they wouldn't identify us, but we cannot go into the gateway again!", Phil being the wise one reasons out.
"Definitely not. Rufus said he would meet me with the Saved ones in the Trinitarian Church. And there we don't have much chance of a Trynadic person arresting us!", Azur says with a surprised beaming look. Perhaps, he himself forgot about that.
"Cos they can't use magic?", Clary asks.
"Exactly! Praise God! You knew of this and were panicking us!Wait, how come I didn't know about this church?", Phil asks Azur a bit sullenly.
"You were busy stalking your Trynadic acquaintances weren't you?", Azur smirks at me plainly ignoring what Phil said formerly.
"Wait! You mean he", Clary points at Phil with a gaping face of a fish. "Was stalking, Us?", she points at me and her.
"No Way! he scrambled in words from a different context!", Phil bumps on chuckling Azur's shoulder who falter his comical fit. "Fin was my old acquaintance, so I thought of maybe going to him and say a word or two about God. That's it! I never in the world had in my mind that I would be helping you guys!"
"Well, well, so do we go the church now?", I ask feeling a little nauseous in my stomach due to the sound beeping eerily. Perhaps it is my hearing imagination, it seems as if they already found us!
"If we are going now, it's just three miles away. Otherwise we would have to take the long route. We can all go in my car which is just a foot's distance", Azur replies.
"Then, what are we waiting for?", Clary asks as we all fly out of the restroom as plain teens in a bit of hurry and excitedness.
