Chapter 67 - Pale Dragon

"Guys please tell her that I am fine," Cosmo said. 

'No we can't" Vivian replied. 

'Why not?" Cosmo asked. 

"Because she is right and you are so not fine" Vivian responded. 

'Guys how long until we arrive?" Lilith asked. 

"Just a few minutes more Lilith, we will have one of the physicians take a look at her" Sunny responded and Lilith frowned as she looked at Cosmo while flying. 

"She gonna be okay?" Marlene asked as Cosmo's eyes started closing. 

'Cosmo" Lilith called out and the girl looked at the princess who was smiling. 

"You don't have to worry about me Lilith," she said. 

"Of course I do as long as you are here you are my responsibly, I cannot deny that" she replied and Cosmo smiled. 

'Thank you" Cosmo said as her eyes closed and she fell unconscious then Lilith's eyes widened as the girl was about to fall off the pegasus. 

'Cosmo" Lilith called out as she grabbed onto the girl's hand and the others gasped. 

"What's wrong with her Lilith?" Vivian asked and the princess frowned as she pulled Cosmo onto her pegasus and held onto her tightly. 

"I don't know what's wrong, she never tells me anything" she responded as they arrived at the castle and at the same time Rex was coming out when he saw his unconscious sister and rushed to her. 

"What happened?" Rex asked as he took Cosmo from the girl lifting her up in his arms and Lilith got off of the pegasus then they rushed inside and he placed Cosmo on the couch where the king was in the living room and he flung up upon seeing her. 

'What happened?" he asked. 

'I don't know" Rex responded as his sister's body got cold and paler as time went by. 

'Cosmo" Lilith called out as she sat beside the girl and Rex's hand trembled and Lilith saw then she looked up at him and he smiled nervously and the princess held onto his hand then he sighed as his eyes started glowing. 

'Want to try your healing technique?" he asked and she smiled then nodded in agreement as the elf healer came.

"Let me take a look at her first your highness," the woman said and Lilith got up then the woman sat down and her hand started glowing as she placed them on Cosmo. 

'I will give her this medication to drink, she needs to stop stressing herself, due to that her body is falling apart and by that, I mean growing weak, soon enough she would start losing herself" the woman said as she gave Rex a bottle of blue liquid. 

"You know what to do after all she is your sister" the woman whispered then walked away and Rex sighed as he looked at Cosmo and Lilith sat beside her with her hands glowing and she placed it on top of Cosmo's chest. 

"It's supposed to help right?" Lilith asked as the queen came in. 

'Yes it will help heal her from the inside but princess, she has to think and take care of herself if she goes on like this, even you won't be able to help" the queen said as Cosmo coughed then Lilith moved her hand off of the girl as she went back to normal, her skin was white like milk again but she was still unconscious. 

'She is weak, I can sense that for some reason" Lilith said with a frown, and Rex's eyes widened as he folded his cuffs in anger. 

"Don't worry she will be fine, you guys go have something to eat then start preparing for the ball tonight" the queen said with a sigh. 

"Is this my fault too?" Lilith asked and Rex grabbed onto her arm then she looked up at him. 

"Nothing here is your fault, everything that is happening you should take it out on your father" he responded and she smiled then he gasped. 

"Why are you smiling?" he asked. 

"Because you are right and I am an idiot..." she responded as his eyes trembled while staring at her. 

"What are you talking about? why are you calling yourself an idiot?" he asked. 

'Because I am one, he is the cause of this and here I am, someone who can't do anything to help" she responded and he pulled her towards him then he hugged her tightly and her eyes widened as she hugged him back. 

"Willing to accept blame and call yourself an idiot, something you are not, you are cute that I have to say, I am not blaming you, no one here is... you will play your part in all of this when the time is right Lilith, don't say you are not helping, you are in many ways that you do not know of," he said and she smiled. 

'Thank you Rex" she replied as he raised up then patted her on the head. 

"You are welcome," he said with a smile then walked away as she left staring at him. 

"He is getting attached to her," the elven king said to himself as he stared at the princess then sighed. 

'I am going to get something to eat" he said then walked away.

'Lilith it's getting late, your dress will be here soon... you guys go eat then get dressed" the queen said and Lilith sighed as she looked at Cosmo then smiled. 

"Come on guys let's go eat then prepare ourselves for the ball, we don't want to be late," Lilith said then Vivian hugged her and she jumped as the girl held onto her tightly. 

"You okay?" Lilith asked as Vivian looked at Cosmo. 

"You really care for her don't you?" Vivian asked as she raised up smiling. 

'There is no reason not to" she responded and the girl sighed. 

"Alright come on let's go eat now, I am hungry too," she said and they all went to the dining hall then sat down and Lilith poured herself a glass of juice.
