QUICK TW: These next few chapters are going to be pretty bloody!
Iron fan was shocked. She glanced at his husband as blood poured out of his lifeless body and back to the boy who stood confidently in front of her.
Instead of mourning her husband, she grew angry. So angry that she began to charge an attack with her fan. Mk's confidence lowered slightly. There was no way he could stop this attack. He sat down slowly, admitting defeat, when suddenly, Mei appeared.
Iron fan lowered her weapon, aimed at the boy as she yelled by the amount of power she was containing.
Mei dashed in front of Mk and took the hit, falling to the ground instantly.
She grunted loudly as she gripped her bloody stomach. "Don't you dare give up... you... idiot.." and Mei was lifeless.
Mk's breath became shaky.
"Mei?"
No response.
"C'mon Mei.. this isn't funny."
Tears began to stream down his face.
He crawled to her lifeless body shaking it slightly.
"Mei. Please wake up."
and buried his face into her stomach, sobbing uncontrollably.
Iron fan panted loudly, almost moaning. That was the most powerful attack she had. Even though she was devastated about her husband, she had to pull through and have the upper hand.
Mk looked up, now with an angry expression.
"I hate your family."
He mumbled before standing to his feet once more, wiping Meis blood off of his hands.
Iron fan scoffed and went into battle position, floating in the air.
Mk grabbed Mei's dragon blade, holding it in his still bloody fist, struggling to get a proper grip.
His expression didn't change. There was not a single hint of sadness nor fear.
It was the determined yet anger filled face of a true hero.
One hand held the blade, the other his staff. He readied his position and dashed for her as Iron fan deflected and he fell to the ground.
This carried on for a while. Every time Mk tried to get an attack in, iron fan would strike him to the floor. He could tell that she was getting tired but so was he.
He panted on the ground. All he wanted to do was continue that moonlit picnic with Red son. He craved the warmth of a friend.
But he couldn't think of Red son as a friend anymore. He lied.
He tried to stand once more to look at iron fan. Her face was sweaty, her hair was tangled. She looked exhausted.
He tried to dash toward her once more but fell to his knees. He hadn't thought about himself.
Up until then, Mk was only thinking about Red son or Iron fan, but what about him? How did he feel?
He thought for a moment.
Mk was tired. So tired. He had lost two friends in one day. Mk hated Iron fan and Bull king. He tried to convince himself to hate Red son too but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't. He felt something strong toward Red son but it wasn't hatred.
Despite Red son lying to him, Mk had to admit it.
He had loved Red son.
He wanted to cry because of it, but he didn't. He just slowly stood up, preparing to attack once more.
