Frozen Heart
Chapter 29
Lucy ran through the darkened streets of Magnolia, the earlier encounter with Jack looping through her ears.
“Lucy, you need to save him.”
Heart pounding in her chest, the blonde skidded around a corner without slowing.
“I’ve tried to help him, but he won’t let me. I think…I think you’re the only one who can, now.”
Everything Loke had said spun through her mind in a tornado, suddenly making terrible sense.
“I don’t have much time left.”
“Do you understand the sorrow of a star that can not return to the heavens?”
Panic fueled her, pushing Lucy faster.
Why was she the only one who could do this?
Jack’s last words gave her strength, the sad smile on her face burned into the Celestial Spirit Wizard’s mind.
“Because…You have your mother’s eyes.”
“Lucy, you need to save him.”
