I slowly pushed Carl's collar away to get a closer view of it. Suddenly, Carl's hand clasped my wrist and his eyes flew open. His normally calm green eyes looked furious. I backed away a little but his eyes softened when he saw it was me.

I whispered, "Carlie....do you have a tattoo?"

Carl lowered his eyes and muttered, "I wish it didn't have to come down to this."

I narrowed my eyes suspiciously at him. I stayed silent, waiting for him to explain. Carl leaned back against the trunk of the tree. "It's not what you think it is. I got it ages ago. It means nothing."

"So why didn't you ever tell me? How did I never notice it?" Carl just rubbed the back of his head with his hand, "An illusion blocked it from view."

I leaned closer to him to peek at the tattoo but he swatted me away. "NO. I don't want you to see it." I glared at him and asked,
"Why NOT?"

Carl stuck his tongue out, "I'll let you see it when you tell me what happened to....Blaze."

I groaned, "It's like hell over there. Terra is in pieces, Icahn won't talk to anyone, Darla and Zairian are busy comforting each other, Yvonne is in deep meditation and Stella is going crazy trying to look after all of them. Draco was the only sane one for once."

Carl raised an eyebrow, "Why is Icahn not talking to anyone?"

"He's blaming himself for Blazes death. He has put up an immense amount of defenses around his realm so now no one can enter it at all."

Carl just shut his eyes as if he were in pain. I touched his shoulder lightly, "Carl? Are you okay?"

He just shook his head slightly and refused to open his eyes. "Carl? What's wrong!?"

Now he was scaring me. Didn't he share everything with me? I felt a gust of wind from behind me but before I could turn, I heard someone growl, "Carl....you have a lot of explaining to do."

I jumped up and saw Icahn storming towards us. Carl's eyes snapped open and I thought I saw a flash of guilt in them but it was quickly replaced by confusion. I stood in front of Carl and spread my arms, "You are going to have to explain stuff to me FIRST before you attack my brother."

Icahn looked furious which was odd. He always kept his emotions in check. Oh hell. His eyes were that terrifying electric blue again. I flinched a little when he turned those electric blue eyes on me.
He pointed at Carl behind me, "Do you realize what you've done you stupid little hell angel!?" "DON'T CALL HIM STUPID!" I exclaimed. Then I turned around to look at Carl, "Don't worry little bro. I won't let him accuse you of...." I broke off when I noticed

Carl's hands were balled into fists.

I looked at him but his eyes weren't the normal green. They looked...more dark. What was going on here? I broke down and hugged Carl. I stood there sobbing on his shoulder, "Carl? You didn't do anything. You didn't. Ignore Icahn. He doesn't mean it. He's....just crazy. You know I love you right? I won't let anything happen to you!"

Carl hugged me back after a few seconds but then he gently pulled me off him. I stared at him in confusion but his face didn't show any emotion. He just looked at someone behind me.
Suddenly I felt myself going numb when I heard someone whisper into my ear, "Sleep now."

It then occurred to me that Icahn wasn't behind me. I tried to turn and all I saw was Icahn trying to fight off about five other angels and demons.

I struggled a little but my body betrayed me as I slowly slumped down into someone. I stared at Carl waiting for him to attack the person behind me but he made no move. He just looked at me and then I felt it. The feeling of betrayal sunk in to me. I felt my heart freeze and then all I felt was anger.

First Blaze dies, then my own brother betrays me? Carl leaned down and whispered, "I love you too sis. Don't worry. I won't let ANYTHING happen to you too either."

I looked at him, trying to fight off the sleepy sensation I had been put in. Levi cleared his throat, "We should probably leave now. Icahn already took down three of them."

Carl grinned, "That's too bad. I really liked those minions. They were very loyal."

That was when I felt the fire in me grow. I had no idea whether Carl was evil or not. All I knew was I was NOT going to be held hostage. Carl just looked at Levi, "She's still fighting. Do you mind hypnotizing her again?"

Before Levi could say anything, a whole load of ice shards hit us. Icahn ran towards us and Carl jumped up and launched a whole load of weird green rays at him. Levi stood up to help Carl but by then, the fire in me woke me up. I stood up shakily and unleashed all the energy I could.

I roared and aimed for Levi. He must have hypnotized Carl! I knew Carl couldn't be evil. He just wasn't. A portal slowly opened up and then Levi jumped into it before I could attack him. Carl just looked at me sadly and held his hand out, "Join me Carma. We could rule the world..."

I just stared at his hand in horror, "Carl? SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!"
Carl shrugged, "Someday you'll understand." Then he jumped into the portal and before it closed, he winked at me, "See you soon sis!"

I just fell on my knees in shock. Carl....was...evil. He was our opposition. Then it struck me. He helped kill Blaze. The sobs shook my body as I let out a scream of fury. I could just imagine Blaze's face when he saw Carl was part of the group who killed him.

I just kept sobbing and then I felt Icahn put his arm around me awkwardly. I just kept sobbing as he held me tighter. He rocked me back and forth and kept murmuring under his breath trying to console me. Finally, I stopped crying and looked at Icahn who had closed his eyes too.

He opened one eye and looked down at me, "Feeling a little better?"

I shook my head, "My mentor just died. After that, I figure out my brother was the traitor everyone was talking about. Then I realize he was the one who probably helped kill Blaze." Icahn held me even closer. I snuggled into his arms and breathed shakily.
"I don't think he killed Blaze. He's just part of the group. He might have helped plan the whole thing though."

I pushed him away, "That isn't helping!" Icahn stood up and shrugged, "I was merely stating a fact."

"Why do you keep doing that?"

Icahn looked puzzled. "Doing what?"

"Acting all hot and cold! You're EXACTLY like that Katy Perry song!"
Icahn raised both his eyebrows, "What? Who the heck is Katy Perry? Why are we talking about her? I thought we were talking about CARL!"

I flinched when he said Carl's name. I sighed and fell back onto the grass. "Icahn?"

"Yes?"

"I want a cookie."

He chuckled and then gave me his hand. I looked at it, smiled and then held it as he pulled me up. I kept holding it as we walked together towards the trees. He muttered a few words and then a portal slowly opened. "Where are we going?" I asked.

"To the Land of Gooey Choco-Chip Cookies."

I grinned, "Ahh. Lucy's kitchen?"

"The very same." Icahn looked at me right then and I saw his eyes
twinkle with amusement.

We both jumped into the portal together, still holding hands.

I guess we both didn't know what we were going to face for the next few days or maybe weeks but what we did know was that a cookie might just help us give us that much-needed happiness for a few minutes...
