Della's POV:

We were screaming for Akari to stay awake, but nothing was working. As soon as the cold water would touch her it would turn to gas. She was burning up. I had never seen this happen before, and was scared. Not to mention that she also faded pretty badly.

Both Elwin and I were trying to get her temperature down when it happened. The seat she was in was lit on fire. But not only that but she was too.

We both backed up and then immediately started to try and get the fire at bay. But it was like the water was making it worse. Elwin was trying to get to her but had no way of doing so because of the fire. But it's weird, nothing but the chair and Akari were on fire.

Seeing as we couldn't do anything I went and grabbed my importer and quickly called the council. And within seconds we had the entire council as well as several emissaries all around the room trying to move the other furniture out of the way and get the fire under control. But nothing was working. When we tried to use water to put it out it only made the fire stronger. And the same can be said when Councilor Velia tried to use her wind. We had no idea what to do, or how to help.

But Councilor Bronte had come to the conclusion that we needed someone with a fire ability to come and help. But seeing as that's a forbidden, not many know how to use the ability. The only one anyone could think of that could come and help us, isn't really on good terms with the council. And He would most likely ignore anyone who went to get him. But we had no other choice.

So the emissaries and two council members went to go and talk to him. I just hope that he will listen and be willing to come and help. Because if Elwin can't get close enough to her then she might just not live much longer and fade away in that fire.
