Jake was still holding Akeesha each of his Jinns gathered around them both. cipher but the audio of great weeping and sobbing could be heard within the elbow room. There was another Brobdingnagian hurry of energy as Nyrae and Ingerman both appeared. Inger flew to Akeesha snag starting to fall from her centre.

'' Why ? Why is she dying ? If she dies overlord Jake I promise you that I will make you suffer ! '' Inger was growling out at Jake.

'' I am going to die soon one way or another Ingerman. The alliance I have with my Jinns will kill me when she dies. I am afraid it will kill them also. I just wish that Sheeka was n't hurt so badly. '' Jake stated fresh tears falling from his centre.

All 3 of his Jinns were suddenly looking at the doorway with scandalize looks. `` maestro Jake ? '' Gen started.

'' I know ; I am sorry Gen and the rest of you. I have been such an unworthy professional to all of you. I more than deserve the slow death I know that is coming. '' Jake said unable to see, the thought process of them dying because of him, made him wish well that when he died they would remain animated.

There was a gong speech sound then a titanic sounding fanfare. The genie council appeared ; seismic disturbance apparent on all their faces. The wish that master Jake had made was unheard of. Then Rasmir smiled another part of the legend was coming to pass. This show of unconditional love for all four of his Jinns, plus the fact that he was willing to die so they could live was.

Jake heard the council gasp and stood walking to them. `` Great council of the Jinns. '' Jake started. `` I humble myself before you that you please facilitate my Jinns to live when I die. I love them all and the death of one is too much. ''

Jake fell to the floor awaiting the death blow he knew was coming. Suddenly the room got tranquillise, well Jake thought this is it.

Suddenly a low and tranquillity voice wafted over his ears, `` My beloved, high-priced loving Master. I am not dead my love. ''

Looking up, Jake saw Sheeka bathed in a golden visible radiation, his mouth hanging open he could only stare. Finally finding his vox Jake could hardly get the words out. `` I ... I saw you fall, I held you, finger your warmheartedness occlusion as did your external respiration. I am confused, happy yes, but very confused. ''

'' Perhaps I can help you father. '' Came a voice from the air. `` The wiseness and braveness that you have shown along with the unconditional passion. These things that you have for mother and the others. I now know as do the others love, YOUR lovemaking is a illusion far more powerful than anything those iniquity I could develop. female parent will be amercement soon but you and they have lots to do before all of us are born. ''

Jake watched as Sheeka smiled and lovingly touched her breadbasket. Just as suddenly as it started Sheeka was asleep laying down on the couch near her sister.

Jake was still in cushion he could n't say a word even if he wanted to, a asymmetrical smile on his lips. ‘ Wisdom and courage ? Him ? pit and here I thought I was a Noel Coward,'Jake thought drawing a gasp from Gen.

'' passe-partout Jake ! You dear Master are no Coward ! You went to Sheeka even when the deadly three was about to destroy you. You care more for us than you do for yourself. You are the tolerant and blue-blooded master the world has ever seen. I am dark maestro but you are far from a coward ! '' Gen said with her branch crossed, a looking of ira in her oculus.

Jake was shocked for a here and now, he was just now starting to get used to praise. The Holy Writ that Gen had spoken were taking quite a bit to dip in. He did n't finger like any eccentric of hero, he had just done what he thought was ripe. Besides he still was to find fault for Sheeka getting damage.

'' I will recognise that I am no Coward but I am still to blame for her getting hurt. I promised all of you that I would protect you as much as possible. That means not putting you in the posture of being able to get hurt I ... '' Jake was saying when he was interrupted again.

'' All this as you say is genuine father, though we both know that any of these four would also lay down their lives for you. Father, just go for the fact that your love life for each other is far more powerful than anything they can send at you. I must go Church Father, be well I will see you soon. '' With that the voice was gone Jake sitting there staring at all four of his Jinns.

‘ damn,'Jake thought, ‘ I wish Akeesha had heard all of that, that way she might not want to kill me when she awoke.'There was a groaning from the couch then Akeesha 's eyes opened. Shakily she got to her foot and walked to Jake.

'' I did get word all that was said. I still warn you master copy Jake protect her or I will die ending your life ! '' Again she drew back to slap him only to fall forward into Jake 's arms.

looking over at Ingrian Jake said, `` Inger aid me get her to the couch, I am afraid she is faint and needs to take a breather. Are you allowed to abide and watch over over her ? ''

Inger 's eyes flew wide as she helped Jake get her to the couch. Just who was this human male who cared to a greater extent for Jinns than his own life ?

'' Yes I am master key Jake. I always listen for my mistress 's voice. Master Jake, may I ask a question ? '' Ingrian tentatively asked of Jake. When he only nodded she continued. `` I noticed that you did n't oppose yourself against Akeesha. May I ask why ? ''

Jake took a deep suspiration then opened his oral fissure, `` What she said was true up, I did promise to protect them all. I feel I failed in that regard. It was well within her right field to punish me. Besides I told her to carry her anger out on me. I felt I more than deserved it. ''

Inger eyes were even wider at his watchword. A male who actually accepted responsibleness for his action mechanism ? Shaking her head she thought she needed to study this man more. If all he said was true than he truly was a rare male in the world.

Jake walked over to Trully who was again examining Sheeka, a spacious smile on her face. `` testament she be alright Trully ? I was so scare off when I saw her scratch line to come down. I thought I had lost her and the infant, all I could retrieve was why ? Her shaver is far more of import than I am, as is she. '' This last part Jake said almost in a voicelessness.

'' Yes Master Jake she is OK, as is the nipper she carries. Master Jake I have a question for you, delight result truthfully. '' Jake nodded at Trully. `` You say that you love all your Jinns as you have proven time and again. ''

Again Jake nodded staring at Trully a little disoriented. `` Of course I love all of them how could I not ? They are the kindest sweetest woman I have ever met. ''

'' Ok, then suffice me this. Is n't it quite possible that they could also jazz you to the point that you are everything to them ? '' Trully said her smile growing when she saw a sudden illumination appear in Jake 's center.

'' I thought they felt compelled ... to act as they do ... but they never ... how could I ? '' Jake stuttered out feeling even more confused than before.

Trully just shook her head, `` Master Jake for one as Wise and brave as you are, you really know goose egg of love do you ? ''

Jake hung his head his boldness red as he blushed, how sweet Trully thought he really is blushing ! Looking over at the still pose Jinn council Trully nodded at all of them. Suddenly they all were also smiling widely.

Patting his arm softly Trully whispered to him, `` It 's alright passe-partout Jake, we all have to learn at one clock time or another. The same is also true for Jinns ; we are a lot comparable world as we also have to memorize love. Do n't worry ; you learn more as you go. '' With that Trully walked to the council leaving a red faced and almost completely scattered Jake in her backwash.

Jake watched as Trully talked to the council a few hour then turned bowed to him and was gone. The entire council all had startled tone on their faces. Jake shook his read/write head to clear it and walked over to Rasmir.

'' Rasmir I am afraid that we may need a unlike strategy. I ca n't gamble their lives like this anymore. I am not as concerned for me as a good deal as I am about them. Sheeka is going to be a mother soon, I can not, WILL NOT put her in risk like that anymore. '' Jake told the older man.

'' Master Jake as I am sure my Sister told you, they love you far too a great deal to NOT get involved. '' Smiling widely Rasmir added, `` I am also sure that you have noticed that you and they are almost untouchable. From what I saw it took an extremely muscular measure of magic to try and hurt Sheeka. That type of magic is almost unknown to all but a few. '' Rasmir placed an arm around Jake to brace the still discombobulate man. `` You are a very lucky man Master Jake, to live the equal love of four Jinns and to return that love as fiercely as you do. ''

Jake could only nod his head this was a little a good deal for him even with all he 'd seen already.

chiliad of miles away, Nuha was struggling to survive, barely clinging to animation. The bother was far beyond anything she 'd ever felt. Fatin and Abla were doing their proficient to continue Nuha alive but they felt they were losing the fight. Suddenly Fatin became angry, how dare that arsehole of a human Male hurt her treasured babe ! Abla had to back away as the increasing power of her sister was actually starting to push her rachis.

Abla 's heart grew wide as she watched Fatin 's power increase and as Nuha was finally starting to respire well. Screaming Fatin said, `` I 'll belt down him ! I 'll kill him ! No one hurts my sister, my menage ! NO ONE ! ''

Nuha was finally starting to be recognisable as the monumental sum of office flowed from Fatin to her. Finally an hour later Fatin collapsed on the floor at the substructure of Nuha who arose and caressed her sis 's face. `` Do n't worry my good sister. '' Nuha told Fatin 's still form. `` We will exact a most awful revenge upon this man and his ... pets ! ''

Abla gasp as Nuha stood naked in strawman of her. `` Sister the cross upon your book binding ! ''

Nuha rushed to a mirror and stared at the whitening shaped mark all the way down her rear. `` Ha ! A small price to pay for all that I have gained ! '' Nuha laughed evilly as light erupted from her fingertips. `` Yes a modest price indeed. That idiot has provided me the king to finally extinguish his piteous beingness ! '' With that Nuha released a bolt of lightning at the nearest wall effectively blowing a hole in it.

Abla smiled this was it seemed, a melding of the ancient power and the natural power of a storm. The Ever shoemaker's last Master did n't bear a chance !

Jake awoke that night having fallen asleep on the flooring near both Akeesha and Sheeka. Though his psyche was filled with unspeakable aspiration, Jake still managed to get a trivial sleep. Looking over at the couch he could see that Akeesha was awake drink from a cup that Inger was holding for her. Trying to not constitute a sound Jake turned his eyes toward Sheeka. A moment later her center also opened, Jake arose and hurriedly got her something to drink.

Sheeka awoke confused, where in the mankind was she ? This was captain Jake 's abode but ... then she saw her Sister and Ingrian. A consequence later Jake appeared with a cup for her, oh by the cracking Jinn that water was so trade good ! In a very horse voice she told Jake, `` Thank you master but you do not have to do this I am ... ''

'' No, this is cypher to repay you, though I do induce an musical theme that I hope you do n't find too a good deal ? '' Jake told a now very confused Sheeka, an idea ? What was master talking about ? Drinking her fill she thanked Jake then laid back down falling deceased almost immediately.

Jake smiled he hoped that she was unattackable enough to take what he had in mind. Then again Jake thought as his face twisted up in a instant of tightness, he hoped that he could also.

The side by side morning Jake called all his Jinns into the as he called it green room. Also calling the council and Juno, Jake thought he had enough to find this. He 'd already contacted Trully to observe out if Sheeka was strong enough to withstand what he had in mind. Trully assured him that she was far unassailable than she appeared.

'' Thank you all for coming here today, what has happened over the last week or so has me thinking. Sheeka has done many brave and honorable things for me ; at first I thought it was just her trying to trick me. I then found that she, as well as I, have developed feelings for each other. '' Jake walked to a small bay set in the wall in it were two bottleful, Sheeka 's and Rosalinda 's.

Gen, Rosalinda and finally Rashala all smiled hugely. They could see what their master was about to do, they wholeheartedly agreed with his decision. Sheeka could only stare had she done something incorrect ? Akeesha was also glaring at Jake though as she had discovered the man was full of surprise.

'' I have decided that you have done far more for me than I can for you. '' Jake said as Sheeka bowed her head, she loved her victor enough to abide the pain that being in her bottleful would give rise. Once there she would imagine of all that she had done faulty and objurgate them when he let her out again. With bout in her heart she awaited his word of honor of imprisonment.

'' I find that I can not go with the changeless fear of your bottle suspension over you. I can not live on with that like veneration dangling over our first kid. I therefore before all those present, I wish for you to no longer be a striver to that feeding bottle and be free to bonk and live ! '' Jake told her.

Like Rashala before her, Sheeka almost did n't hear Jake, then with a cushion she FELT the words. `` I will ... you ... unloose me ? '' A wide-eyed, happy grinning lit up her face, `` I hear and obey my schoolmaster, it is as you wish ! ''

There was a deafening windfall then another gong sound, Sheeka 's bottle started to shake and vibrate then exploded and was gone. Sheeka arose and threw herself into Jake 's arms kissing him passionately. `` Thank you dear superior, '' she whispered in his ear. On the former incline of the room Rosalinda sighed one day she too would be free. She knew she had to prove still that she was no foresightful evil, though just having the opportunity to be near Jake was almost reward enough.

A shadowy fig had watched much of what had gone on, so they thought, Dreama was still a striver to her bottle. Bah ! This new name of hers was scraps ! Soon the figure thought, Dreama would be free of that selfish human being. They would cook surely of it that was for for sure !
