Separated

                                    

                                          
Natsai had appeared out of nowhere, grabbed onto her cloak and Nox's robes and soon they were in their front room. She was disoriented and still holding her wand in a battle stance. 
"What's going on here?? I was handling it Natty!!" She was fired up. Then she saw the look on her friend's face. It was a look of grief and anger. 
"Natty....where is Ominis?" She said, her voice shaky". When Natty looked at her sadly and no words came out, panic hit her full force. 
She shouted now, on the top of her lungs, "where is Ominis!?!?". 
"I think it would be easier for me to show you both". Natty touched her hand to both Iris and Nox, and replayed the entire scene. 
Nox slowly sat down on the couch behind her, all color drained from her face and she looked like she might vomit. Iris, crumpled to the floor, and sobbed. 
She couldn't live without him. She wasn't strong enough to be in this world without his love and guidance. He was everything to her, she would burn the world down to get him back. Her loving Ominis, had just sacrificed himself for her and his sister. She knew what they would do to him, she knew they wouldn't show any kindness. 
"He won't be able to see, he will be so alone" she sobbed. 
She heard Natty apparate, and a few seconds later, appear back with a disheveled Sebastian, whose shirt was undone.

Sebastian POV 
One minute, he was getting rather cozy with Louis in the back of the Leaky Caldron, the next minute, he was in some townhouse. Since it was Natty who was grabbing at him, he let her take him. If it had been most anyone else, he would have subdued them immediately. 
"What the hell Nat!! I was starting to quite enjoy my evening, didn't take you for such a cock block. Hey, who is the hot blonde?". He was trying to be funny, something not good was going on here. The blonde and Natty just stared at him, glaring. 
Ooooookkkkkk, bad read of the room. He looked behind the couch, and saw Iris crumpled and sobbing. Oh shit!! He rushed to her immediately and wrapped her in his arms. 
Natty said, "the blonde is Ominis' sister, her name is Nox. The Gaunts have taken Ominis". She said, her voice wavering. 
He jumped up and squared up with her. "The fucking Gaunts have taken Ominis? What the hell is going on? Weren't you supposed to protect him?". He was seeing red. 
"Yes. I failed...." She stuttered. The blonde jumped up and got in front of Natty. 
"No! I don't know who the hell you are, but you weren't there. You don't know how brave she had to be." She hissed at him, her eyes were determined and cold. Brave one, this girl. He kind of liked her. 
"Enough", came a clear command from behind him. Iris was standing now, she was calming herself and he could tell she was about to take charge. "Natty, show him what happened. Sebastian, you are going to help me get him back. You owe me". 
Natty showed him the scene, and also showed him quickly the times she saw Ominis and Iris mourning his loss, when he left. 
He was devastated. He had no words, no smart ass comment, no excuses. Sharp had always told him he would regret not saying goodbye. He looked at Iris and nodded. 
He looked around the room. Nox was comforting Natty, and Iris had tears in her eyes, there was an eerie emptiness to them. He noticed pictures of all of the girls and Ominis around the house. He noticed that the house was cozy and warm, smelled like lavender. The house was decorated in a mix of both Ominis and Iris' styles. He hadn't known that Ominis reconciled with his sister. Ominis had built a family, these girls loved him. What the hell had Sebastian built? Other than becoming stronger, he had nothing to show for anything. His whole mindset started to switch after seeing the stark difference.
