I wake up to someone poking my cheeks. “Riiiide. C’mon, Ride, I know you’re okay. Ama shielded you with magic so the worst that happened was that you hit your head and passed out from brief pain.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcySEF7eMe
“Treble, leave me alone,” I say, waving a hand.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGdFSPVB6c
“She lives!” Klef cheers. “Open your eyes for me, babe, let me see those pretty iridescents.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaP6ieDvxS
With some effort, I open my eyes and blink a few times. All I can see if smudges of color. I see the color of Klef’s freckles, and his skin, and a little bit of his eyes, but nothing beyond that. “Treble?” I ask.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5OT4H41ug
“Who else would it be?” he laughs, but he’s nervous. “Something wrong?”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXM2S7UXTQE
“I… I can’t see,” I say, worry building in my throat. “Klef, I can’t see you.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jU84lhWhr
Klef pulls me into a sitting position and cups my cheek. “Sweetheart, what do you mean?”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YQuv6Mgjw
“It’s all just smudges of color,” I say in a panic. “Klef, I can’t see you!”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7nzXlVxYj
Klef hugs me as I start to cry, and runs a hand through my hair. “Hey, hey. It’s all right. Hibiscus is going to fly us home, okay? Your mom can sort this out, and if she can’t, then I bet a doctor can, all right?”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hYC6e6paG
I nod and Klef helps me stand, and leads me to Hibiscus, who is just a smear of purple. “What happened to everyone else?”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYhCOBUhBA
“Well, that explosion was pretty strong,” Bobbi says. “You literally blew up the machine that was going to destroy the humans. It… decimated everyone. Ama was barely able to shield us with her magic.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MfYJoacfd
I nod. “Well, I’m assuming she’s probably out cold, but if I don’t get the chance before you do, thank her for me.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayZo9iw3JY
“Where will you be that we won’t?” Bobbi asks.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8em8Lp7apw
“Finding why my eyes aren’t working right,” I say, as Klef leads me to sit down on Hibiscus.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQs3m26KHv
“What?!” Bobbi asks, but we’re already flying away.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi5imK9e1G

“Well, Ms. Rides, it appears that overload of magic altered your physical body some. Your eyes in particular,” the doctor says. “I’m afraid that if I try to rectify the matter with magic, it will only make matters worse.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIOyNYDgKB
I swallow. “I was afraid you’d say that,” I whisper, looking down.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38Rm1goTLh
“Never fear, my dear. Be glad you are still alive! I do not know many who could survive that much magic running through their veins,” the doctor says, patting my cheek.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBV4Qr744k
I nod and he leaves the room, and in come 3 shapes that I have learned to memorize these past few weeks. “Nothing,” I sigh. “He can’t do anything.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq7bvXU2aV
Klef’s shape turns his head to my parents and bounces. “Never fear, Ride, we have a solution!” he crows.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxfdjjAuLX
I blink skeptically. “Magic could just make this whole thing worse,” I inform him.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYRT3grUqb
“It’s not magic, sweetheart,” Klef says, holding up something in his hand. “Though it certainly acts like it.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir37fJBLnV
He walks up to me, the thing in both his hands. He lifts them up to my face, and there are 2 small spots of clear in the smudge. Klef pushes them back onto my face and the bridge of my nose, and everything comes into startling focus. “Woah!” I exclaim. “What did you do?!”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg7HJpRGPq
“Your mom is very good with her hands, Ride,” Klef says. “After she spoke with the first doctor and found out you were legally blind, she worked day and night to get these glasses working! Nobody on Melisma has needed such a thick pair of specs in years, and we had to infuse the glass with magic a little bit so you could see clearly, but--oof!”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiQPXNys59
I tackle him in a hug, tears streaming down my face. “I can see you,” I mumble, blubbering. “I can see you again.”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpBx9TziTB
Looking up, Dad and Mom are standing there, misty-eyed, and I grin. “I can see all of you!”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XJwKSKM6e
“Does that mean you’re ready to see everyone else?” Dad asks.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJgKSwiQPu
I nod eagerly. “Please! Please, let me see them!”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsleDLdA2Cs
We walk out of the house, and I run over to Bobbi, Ama, and Hibiscus, who are watching my eye’s every move. I look at Bobbi’s latest choice of hair style, bright purple spikes, and grin. “Oh, you would go punk, Bobbi!”1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxJ6iI897R
They whoop and hug me, and I hug them back. The world is safe, and though it was turned thoroughly upside-down, things are starting to look up again.1102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfWXo2lvLS
