"RaXi stop!" I pleaded to the stubborn RaXi. "You'll be labeled a traitor! RaXi!"
"What about the children," Triskix said under his breath.
RaXi seemed to freeze in her tracks and for a moment I was hopeful. RaXi is one of the strongest people I know, but the Leader, he is something different. I don’t know what I would do if he… I wouldn’t let myself think about that. Triskix needs help here; I wouldn’t let the Leader hurt him, yet maybe RaXi is right. What if we are the ones that Get him hurt.
"Xyta would lose an ice master," Lexian answered automatically. "And she would be subjugated to the wrath of the Leader."
Tanex’s words came back to me and the answer that I would soon have to make, then a picture of Aidex came to mind. My eye began to burn again I counldn't tell if it was because of tear, or somthing else. I was thankful it was nothing major, but it was enough to bring me back to the question at hand.
“Triskix. There Must be a way! I… I want them back but.” I trailed off looking away, trying to think of what to say and building up courage. “BUT NOT THIS WAY! I don’t want to see anyone else hurt Tris! We have gone threw So Much and we deserve a payback, but is it worth it at the cost of Another’s Life?!”
From behind Triskix I heard someone walking in and saw that it was Xemmsur. I didn’t know how much of this she heard because she looked so deep in thought.
“RaXi you can’t leave but… Tris... You shouldn’t be the one to bear all of our Scars! The Leader Hurt you and it is partially because of me! What kind of friend Does that! I—,” My eye started burning more and I could feel RaXi’s knowing gaze on me, and without thinking I ran up to Triskix and hugged him quick.
“I am sorry Tris. I am So sorry, I don’t know what to do. I don’t know if it is right but” Pulling back to look at my friend I realized what must be done. “I have to try.”
Taking one last look at everyone I made a portal behind me and ran threw as fast as I could, hoping Aidex was still in my room.

Sometimes goodbye's the only way.
