As the flames spread Isabella watched, backing away, horrified. She couldn't do it. Shaking her head slowly, Isabella walked backwards. Cautiously watching the flames, she didn't noticed herself falling. With a thump, Isabella was on the ground. Looking down on the ground Isabella stared. She couldn't will herself to get up. She was away from the flames and now she just wanted to sit. As long as it stayed that way, she could be calm.

Harley's eyes were on the fire, and nothing else. "A simple freezing charm did that?" she asked, studying the magic closely. She reached up, running her hand through the flame, quick enough to where it didn't burn her, but slow enough to where she felt the warmth. "Or maybe you braced yourself too much against me."

"Oh, that was overcompensation," Phoenix confirmed. "I was expecting you to try harder to extinguish it..." His voice trailed off as he noticed Isabella where she lay. "Are you all right?" he called, moving around Harley and starting over toward his friend.

If anything Isabella started to panic, her violet eyes widened in fear. "No, get away. Don't come closer. Get away from me!" Isabella shouted out, barely able to keep the growl from it out. Memories from the past echoed in her mind, fire, smoke, everyone disappearing, the chaos the flames caused. She was starting to feel vulnerable, the fear weaving its way deeper. Somewhere in her mind it told her to attack whatever was causing her to feel this way. But she backed away from him, like a frightened little child instead.
Isabella knew she shouldn't blame him for this, he didn't know, no one knew. The strong fear that erupted once fire was shown.

Phoenix was at a loss. "What's wrong?" he asked, standing back. Really, what was making her act like this. For a moment, he considered that perhaps the potion he'd made her was having side effects... but that made no sense. Nothing in it should produce an effect like this. Shoud it? He had to admit that he wasn't sure if there was something in vampire physiology that would make them react differently, but he couldn't rule it out, either...

She was what's wrong, her mind was what's wrong. Making her afraid of something, making her appear weak. "The flame's whats wrong!" Isabella told him, her voice sounding weak. Trying to make herself calm down. He wasn't going to come any closer, she was safe but she didn't feel it. Isabella wanted nothing more than to run into the forest, hide away from her fears. Right now she couldn't move, she was petrified.
She needed to calm down, but she couldn't. She had just told Phoenix what she feared. Knowing that, he could easily use it against her. Isabella wasn't even thinking about the blonde girl yet.

Phoenix looked up, then quickly extinguished the flames with a wave of his wand. Or rather, he stopped maintaining them and let the rain extinguish it with a hiss. Now flame free, he hurried forward to help her up. "I'm sorry," he said, "I didn't know." What, he wondered, was it that made so many people so irrationally afraid of fire? He couldn't understand it. Granted, he wouldn't blame any of them, but still.

As the flames vanished Isabella felt relieved. It was like cold water was splashed on her and the feeling of fear was gone. Though another fear crept up, but it could be squished down. It was of him knowing that about her. She had yet to know if the blonde girl knew. Isabella let herself be helped by him.
"It's ok now, I'm fine. Thank you for taking it away." Isabella said a bit shakily. Frowning slightly, wondering what she should do.

Harley looked over and saw Phoenix helping someone. "Hey, you okay?" she asked as she ran over, letting the wet tendrils of her hair fall in her face. She smiled as the rain dripped off the edge of her nose/

"Yeah.." Isabella replied, keeping her eyes adverted from Phoenix. Shaking off the spell she had used to keep the rain off. She wanted to feel the rain. Let it wash away the sickly feelings and thoughts. She couldn't look at Phoenix in case she didn't see him but a terrifying image of her past. She knew they were friends but even so, friends can turn to enemy's in a heart beat. Isabella just needed to keep away from him, every time they seemed to meet he found out another secret. It was alarming. Though she was reliant on him for the potions. She could deal with that for now.
"Yeah I'm fine, " Isabella repeated, smiling weakly at the girl. She wasn't sure if she was just trying to reassure herself, or them.
