Chapter 59:

Regret that Burns (3/5)

The Zypher: The Four Season


Cal shrugged his shoulders, "either he had a clever mechanic or something." They carried on with their activity until something caught Cal's eyes, "guys... I think we've got a problem..." Cal pointed at the purgist ships that were landing on Azriel's home, "we have to go back..." Azriel didnt want to return home, Cal punched him in the face, "Stop daydreaming about the past and go to him! I dont know what is your problem in that planet but I couldn't care less, maybe stop being a depressed dad and for once be a dad that boy can forgive." Azriel agreed with Cal and Macro turned the ship back to the farm where the purgists were trying to get information off him, "all I did was fix their ship and tell them to pay my money! I haven't got a clue where they went and neither do I care!" They felt since the farmer was of no use to them, they decided to kill him but they were stopped by Azriel and the others, "retrieve the lost child... all our wishes are granted if we bring him in!!!" The purgist attacked them, Cal was unable to do anything since he didnt even know what his power was.

He watched as Macro, Erika, Azriel and Erin were using their powers to stop the purgists, "when am I ever going to discover my powers? And more important, do I even have powers?" They had defeated the purgists and Azriel rushed to his son, "are you okay?! Did they do anything..." Azriel's son slapped his hand and told him, "didn't I tell you to leave?" Azriel didn't want to look at his sons eyes but he had enough of being traumatized by the past, "I know you're mad about me... and you have every right... but... there was a reason why I left... I had been diagnosed with a deadly disease and ... I wanted to freeze myself because... i wanted to meet you... not as a child but as a person... 15 years of being stuck in the ice... I kept a promise with your... mother... I told them that when I would return... I would run back home and find you... and give you all the time I may have left... even though the plan failed and I still have (coughs) (spews blood) I wanted to give up the last minutes that I may have and ensure that I would give all the time in the world, just so that I can watch you grow into your next stage in life... and even though i die... it would have been worth spending time with my son... I know you won't forgive me... but you deserve the truth at least... and an apology... I'm sorry that I was a selfish father... and that I never gave you and your mother the last moments of my life." The others were all confused with what Azriel had just said.
