Born of fire
For Kenna life was good that week she was constantly with Geeno and he took care of her. He was the friend that Kenna never had. He showed Kenna how to get around Nadia and the front steps, how to have a good time at school. Kenna was extremely happy. All of her worries disappeared. The next week was far from that tho. On Monday at lunch Nadia came looking for her. Nadia was not happy. She was beaten by a kid at a game of baseball, Nadia’s profession. She started to call Kenna names getting her angry. But Kenna just stood there. Geeno told Kenna to run, to flee that he would take care of this. Then Kenna opened her eyes in a pleading voice she said, “No Geeno don’t I’ll just take it you go don’t watch, please.” Nadia seeing this was planning what to do. She then grabbed Geeno and started punching him calling to Kenna that his pain was his fault. Kenna was crying she pleaded with her to stop, “Kill me not hart him” she cried but Nadia did not stop. Kenna’s anger took over. It was more anger then she had ever experienced she ran up yanked Geeno out of Nadia’s arms and punched with all her fury. She knocked Nadia out and little to her knowledge that she was on fire and so was Nadia. She bent over and started to punch her over and over. Nadia was starting to bleed out of her mouth and soon she was turned to ash. Kenna stood and passes out on fire. A little while later Geeno awoke with all the school on fire and sirens in the distance. He stood slowly for he was in pain from being beaten. He saw Ms. Fung in her doorway dead, burned. Her beautiful blue eyes stared at Geeno in awe. He wasn’t on fire he wasn’t even touched by fire, he was cold. He looked to where he was flung from in the fight. There he saw Kenna lying on a pile of ashes. Geeno started to cry. He yelled, “No not again. No I won’t let it happen, I’m not loosing another friend” he ran over in excruciating pain to Kenna picked her up slowly and walked out. Caring her she was still on fire. She was on fire but not burning they made it to the doors and pushed out side. They were greeted by fire fighters in uniform rushing inside for survivors. They looked at them unknowing. They rushed by into the building. Water started to poor on the school putting the fire out. It did no help the school burned and burned nothing remained despite the firefighters efforts. Kenna did not stop burning. No she remained ablaze despite their efforts. The only one that could touch her was Geeno. He was the only one that felt no heat from her. As soon as the school fire went out she did too. She awoke 4 days later in a hospital with Geeno watching over her worried. Kenna sat up suddenly and she regretted it, she sat back down and Geeno got up. He went over to her bed and hugged her. She smiled so did he. He said, “Don’t ever get that angry again. Promise me”
