Petra's POV

We approach the fortress, having left our horses behind a few chuncks.

I couldn't keep my eyes off Jessie since our chat in the farlands.

It had only gotten me hoping that maybe she felt the same.

She had said she came back for me.

Specifically.

I didn't really understand why.

I mean, I am just a video game character in her world.

Why do I matter?

I look over to see her talking with Olivia up ahead as I hold the enchanted sword.

It had an odd look to it, not just cause of the enchantment, but the diamond itself.

It didn't look normal.

To bright.

But I liked it.

"Petra!" Jessie calls, making me snap out of my thoughts.

I catch up to her.

"What's up?" I ask, noticing her hardened look.

"Alright. We've figured out how we are getting into the storm." Jessie states as we walk closer and closer to the fortress.

I nod for her to go on, wanting to hear her plan.

But before she can say anything three people run up to us, stopping dead.

"Jessie?" Axle gasps, his face going pale as if he had seen a ghost.

Jessie smiles.

"Hey." She states, making him run up to her.

He hugs her, lifting her up into the air and down to the ground again.

"Ha! I knew you couldn't have just been gone!" He says, looking like he might burst into tears.

Jessie smiles.

"Thanks man. I'm glad to see that you're okay." She says, brushing her first against his shoulder.

He gapes at the armour.

"Oh heck. You guys got cool armour?" He asks, looking hurt.

Olivia rolls her eyes.

"Don't worry. We brought some for you." She alughs.

I smile at the sight.

Now this was a group.

I couldn't imagine them not together like this anymore.

They looked like heroes.

Then it hits me.

Jessie said this was an action adventure thing.

Are we the real heroes?

My eyes widen.

That can't be right.

I see Axle giving Jessie the amulet, which fully glows now that the whole order is together.

But the colors.

I look down at my aromour.

Light blue.

Olivia, red.

Axle, green.

Jessie, purple.

And the armour we picked up for Lukas when we found hi matter the storm was white.
