The Clock Starts Ticking

The Alchemyst is still going on and keeping strong. From the last stop at page 19 the bookstore has been attacked and now the Sophie and Perry come to Nick and John's aide. The evil man's name has been revealed as Dee and he is after the book of Abramham which corresponds to Nicholas Flamels legend. However, John keeps the book at hand while Dee tears it from his hands and takes Perenelle as hostage. Still, John's struggle had not been in vain through his battle he managed to get the Final Summoning, with those pages unattached the book is useless. Now the battle hes started in order to retrieve the pages and save Pernelle and Nicholas's life which will soon fade without the book has just began and already time is running out. (Page 44)
 Nicholas is trying to hide the pain of his lose yet after living an imortal life together there must be a deep attachment to Pernelle. Yet in a month's time they and their love could fade. The pain of losing something you love is undescribable, I've felt it. I lost my grandmother. We haven't spent an eternaty like Nick and Pernelle but it didn't take that long to love her. Love is described as a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person in dictionary.com, but it's more than that love is holding on to something and never wanting to let it go, its not just a feeling but a part of yourself. Loosing love is loosing yourself. I lost my grandmother and it I felt a pain unimaginable to any other. Nicholas is about to face that same fate.
