Chap 4: finding friends

Rollan and Connor split up and ran around the island looking for the cure for Tarik's poison


"Come on! Where is it!" Rollan says running around trees and bushes, he was not going to almost lose Tarik 3 days ago and then actually lose him today, "where is it?" Rollan asks this time more desperate, he then bumps into someone making him fall over "Ow" he says rubbing the back of his head, he looks up to see who he bumped into "Finn??!" He says in shock.


"What's up Rollan?" Finn asks kneeling down to help the boy back up onto his feet "Why the rush?"


"Nothing just looking for something, what are you doing out here?" Rollan asked, looking left, than right around the tree's while he stood to speak to his old friend. 


"I was told that Tarik was poisoned and there was a cure for it on the island, so me and Maya have been looking for awhile today" Finn stated. "we just split up not long ago, anything to help a friend in need." 


"Really? Oh that's amazing thank you so much! Connor, Abeke and I have been searching for 3 days now, with more people it'll be way easier to locate, Lenori said that the don't grow anywhere else, and only on specific soil in this time of year, so if we can't find any there's nowhere else to look." Rollan explained with a frown, putting his gloved hand on his chin


"Rollan, we'll find it, don't worry, Tarik is a strong man, we won't let a fate so awful happen, you have more allies now than before in Nilo...I'll be off then since your handling this place I'll go look somewhere else" Finn says turning his back to Rollan with a reassuring nod.


"thank you Finn, report to Lenori if you find anything!" Rollan calls and waved to him, then turns and continues his own search. 


Ekko was even informed on the situation and was using her spirit animal to help with the search, her spirit animal being a canine, it had a strong nose. Abeke was currently with her at the moment "Tarik seems to hold a special place in  your heart" the Niloian says to the greencloak 


Ekko smiled nervously as their spirit animals sniffed at a nearby tree for clues "don't take offence but before he was assigned to you guy's he was sort of my mentor, not assigned together but most of the time when we were sent on missions before the 4 fallen we stuck sort of close, he's taught me alot on what he taught you guys, he's really important to me as much as he is to you, sort of like a big brother! I'm in this till the bitter end, let's save him!" she says to Abeke who nodded firmly and they both joined their spirit animals in the search for the cure. 


Connor on the very end of the island ran through the bushes he felt he had to be close on finding the cure for Tarik's poison. they've been searching for awhile now, Connor then bumps into someone making him have to catch himself against a rock


"Oof! who's there?" Connor grunted stamding himself back up straight, and looking down, he sees Maya on the ground, having knocked her over by bumping into her. her spirit animal Tini the fire salamander on her shoulder "oh Maya! are you okay? I'm so sorry" Connor says, than asks as he helped Maya up


"It's ok, I'm fine Connor" Maya says in response 


"What are you doing out here?" Connor asks


"We were told Tarik was sick and his life was in danger there was no way that I was just going to sit and watch him die like that, he saved me in arctica after all. So me and Finn were told to look for a cure that should be on the island" Maya explains


"Oh my gosh we are looking for the cure too? thank you so much Maya this will be a big help" Connor says with a firm nod "I've been out here for days, we have to search every inch of this place."


"It's no problem I know how much Tarik means to you" Maya says with a gentle smile "just a few days left, don't lose hope my friend" Maya says encouragingly
