family? What is that?" Asked Adam.
"It's a Jinn Family of the Afarit" Answered Toska.
All that was happening while Iguenfour and Assergho were frozen in their places, hearing the conversation between the Jinn and Adam, they couldn't believe how it was easy for Adam to make the evil Jinn tell him everything without hesitation.
While they struggled keeping the entity from tempting anyone of them in the past, Adam was getting any information he wanted from Toska.
But in the middle of all that, no one noticed how the metallic rock started heating up and loosing density, until it cracked, and suddenly a huge smoke enveloped them inside the cave to solidifies moments later forming the body of Toska the jinn.
Iguenfour and Assergho were the first to escape, and while they were running outside the cave towards the small city, Adam stood in the middle of the smoke until the body of the jinn formed and Toska appeared in front of him.
"You are definitely not master Halim" said Toska.
"How did you escape your prison?" Asked the scared Adam.
"It took a long time but I was able to make enough energy for the metal to heat up and destroy the rock" responded Toska, before adding "How are you able to command me like this? who are you exactly?"
"My name is Adam... What do you mean command you?" Answered Adam.
"Adam? I never heard this name before, but I have the strangest feeling when you talk to me, it's almost like master Halim, but there is more..." Said Toska, before reaching to Adam trying to touch him, and at that moment, Adam yelled "Stop!".
The jinn froze a moment then said "How did you do that?"
"Do what?" Asked Adam.
"How did you commanded my body to stop?" Asked Toska.
Adam realized then, that this jinn is like the one he met back in his room when he saved Nami from a fatal fate, so he decided to take advantage of this power he seem to have and said "Tell me exactly how Halim imprisoned you in here?".
"He commanded me to enter the metal object, after he mentioned the great name and I obeyed" answered Toska.
"The great name? What is that?" Asked Adam.
"I can't say, you have to learn it by yourself, not that you need it, obviously you can command me without a spell" said Toska.
"If I command you to enter another object, would you?" Asked Adam.
"Yes, but please don't imprison me again, I hated that place" replied Toska.
"How about I set you free?" said Adam.
"I am already free" replied Toska.
Adam then realized what he did for Nami wasn't like the situation he was in right now, and Toska was already out of the object he was bounded to, so he said "I don't want you to terrorize these people anymore, and if you stay here, I will lock you in the smallest object I can find forever".
"I will be happy to leave, but I can't do that by myself" said Toska.
"What do you mean?" Asked Adam.
"I came from another world through a gateway not far from here, but the only one who can open it is master Halim" replied Toska.
"You mean the dark mirror glass door?" Said Adam.
"Yes! do you know about it? Of course you do, you have the same power as master Halim" Answered Toska.
"I can help you with that, but if you try anything, I’ll have no mercy" Said Adam.
Adam and Toska exited the cave and headed towards the small city, while Iguenfour and Assergho were already there warning their people to hide from the free evil entity.
Adam then saw a small object outside the cave that Iguenfour had left behind while running down the hill, so he grabbed it and kept it in hand thinking he might need it if Toska decided to betray him, and soon they were in the middle of the small city walking towards the other mountain under the worried eyes of the citizens.
Through the big gate, they went straight for the room where the mirror glass doorway was set, and as soon as Toska saw it, he said "Finally, I can see my family again, I regret leaving them but it's all soon be over".
"Now tell me, how do I help you get through?" Asked Adam.
"I saw master Halim touching it and reciting a spell, maybe it works like that" replied Toska.
Adam put his hand on the glass doorway and said "Like that?".
At that moment, the mirror glass glowed and the gateway was opened.
"After you" said Adam.
"Thank you master Adam" replied Toska before adding "I think you are more powerful than master Halim, and I'll be happy to serve you whenever you need me, just call my name and I'll be there in no time".
"You'll be able to reach me, even if I’m in other worlds?" Asked Adam.
"Only of you leave the doorway opened" replied Toska.
Few moments later, Toska was gone through the mirror glass and Iguenfour with Assergho were standing outside the room trying to look inside, when Adam said "You have nothing to worry about now, he is gone and can never come back".
"Thank you Adam, Halim would be proud of what you have done here, at last this place can have some peace" said Assergho.
"I would reward you with my most precious possession but I seem to have lost it when we were running from the evil entity" added Iguenfour.
"I found an object outside the cave, I was thinking of using it to bind the Jinn and lock him in it" replied Adam before showing the little piece of jewelry to them.
"That's it, fate have its way of doing things, it's yours now and you can have it with our gratitude" said Iguenfour.
After the goodbyes, Adam walked through the doorway and was back to the small room he came from to find Toska waiting for him.
"Mater Adam, I found this jinn here, and from what I understood, he was about to harm you when you went through the gateway" said Toska.
"Have pity on a poor hungry jinn, please" said the small jinn, before adding "I was looking for food when I felt the presence of someone...".
"And you tough you can just eat him" Asked the angry Toska.
"No, I was going to ask for food, but he vanished when I got here" replied the scared small jinn.
"This is frustrating, let me kill him Master" Said Toska.
"No! You can't kill anything you see, let him go" Said Adam, before adding "Go on your way and don't harm anyone".
"How can I eat if I don't hunt?" Asked the small jinn.
Adam then remembered what he had read in Halim’s book, and how to deal with creatures like this one so he replied "You can ask for food in exchange of service".
"How is that?" Asked the small jinn.
"You ask for food and offer to work in exchange for it, that's all. One meal for one task" Answered Adam, before adding "Now go on your way".
"Yes master! Thank you" replied the small jinn before vanishing in the shadows.
"Would you like me to do anything for you master Adam?" Asked Toska.
"No! You can go now" replied Adam.
"You can call my name anytime Master, I'll be there" said Toska, before turning into a column of smoke and vanishing.
Adam was once again alone inside the small room wondering where his friends where, and what happen to them.
