It was supposed to be a short walk, a walk through the woods to clear their head, and somehow it has turned into a shit show. A simple walk through the woods, yeah right.

It was their fault, they strayed too far from the protective boarders of the snowy kingdom and back into dangerous lands. They didn't keep their guard up and failed to notice the 4 men waiting to ambush them once they went to far from home. They didn't have an exit strategy and no means to defend themselves.

So yes, now they sit in a cage awaiting the public execution of the one person who could have saved them. The one person they probably should have listened to.

And as the old saying goes, you reap what you sow.

So they watched, with bated breath, as the butcher army dragged the defenseless man to meet his death. They heard him call out for the only other person he cared about. They could smell the potion residue left on clothes from the battles that occurred mere moments ago.

They look up only to be met with sad blood red eyes.

"I'm sorry," They whisper and shake their head, disappointed in themselves.

Before anything else could be said their lover was thrown in a cage and the key thrown away. The anvil that would deliver the final blow swung menacingly back and forth above his head.

He was going to die and they had front row seats.

The events that followed happened so fast its a blur in their mind. An enderpearl was thrown by friends watching the scene unfold from a roof top above. A man clad in full netherite gear throw his shield up protectively before attacking the army of 4. A mist of potions was thrown to the ground and through the chaos one of the boys yells desperately to the other to pull the lever.

A scream leaves their lips as the lever is pulled and the rope holding the anvil up breaks. Their eyes follow the anvil as it falls.

3,2,1

A cracking noise rings out and in a flash of red and white he jumps out of the cage and runs over to them. Still shocked by the events and confused as to how he could have lived, they are pulled out of the cage and make a run for it.

Silent words are exchanged between him and the man in the mask before him and themselves run into the abandoned tunnels under L'manburg. They watch from the sidelines as he gears himself up with the materials left in the chest.

It was the eve of battle, time to take revenge. Revenge on the people who have taken so much from them and people they loved. Revenge on the people who have tried so many times to kill them. Revenge on the people who ignore the advice of the very people who they call upon to help them face any and every challenge

It was time to end this once and for all, and they desperately wanted to be a part of it all. To be a part of history. So they gathered their weapons, spent time using magic to have enchanted weapons of mass destruction. They had thought of the things they would do once they were finally free, they thought of the life they would live and the places they would go. Who could have known that all of that would come crashing down by the words of one man.

"You're staying here," He says coldly before grabbing his own weapons

"What do you mean I'm staying here? I want to fight." They say determined to prove themselves

"No you aren't, stop being delusional." His tone coming across harsher than intended

A look of hurt flashes across their face. "Delusional, how am I being delusional? I want to help you guys, you cant just leave me here like some pet."

"My decision is final. Stop arguing with me I'm not going to change my mind, you are only going to get in the way." He responds

They scoff and glare at him. "I don't understand why I can't go, you haven't even given me a reason. I am perfectly able to fight. I might not be as good as you but I can hold my own. I don't understand what you are getting as worked up about."

"ENOUGH!" He shouts his voice booming in the small cabin. "You are not coming."

"Give me one good reason!" They yell back continuing to press against their better judgment.

"I'm not losing you again." His voice cracks betraying the strong persona he tries so hard to keep up. "They took you from me do you not remember that? Because I do, I see it every night in my dreams. It haunts me. You could have died, I'm not letting you go with me and risk losing you again." He confesses and turn his back on them.

They let out a shaky breath and takes a step towards the man. They wrap their arms around him and embrace him. After a moment he turns around and wraps his arms around their waist. He rests his forehead against theirs. For a few minutes nothing is said.

"Never again." They whisper and cup the side of his face.

"Never again." He repeats.
