BloodyKnight-The Story of a Knight

To Awaken

"Oi. Pass me the rice."

"Get yourself some manners you freak."

"Did I say to give me some lip...?

"Did you just ask for a busted lip?"

"Bring it."

Bloody chuckled, her teeth showing slightly as she ate spoonfuls of white rice.

Caos smirked as he ate, and soon relaxed as Bloody passed him the rice bowl from the far side of the table.

Around them everyone gave tense smiles or glares directed at Caos.

Everyone held back when it came to dealing with Bloody.

It had been a month since her break down, and things weren't easy.

Reed had awoken a few hours after Bloody, and had since avoided her like the plague.

Avalon had tried talking to him, and as had Bloody but he still looked away and bit his lip every time they tried.

Bloody knew they would have to speak soon, and decided to just leave him be.

As she finished up her meal, she reached over and grabbed an apple from the middle of the table.

Sario tensed slightly as Bloody lightly pressed her shoulder against her arm.

They hadn't spoken much, and it did hurt.

Apparently everyone was intent on keeping things under wrap and not saying anything.

Bloody sighed, grabbing the apple and biting into it harshly as she stood, plate in hand.

"Hey just leave it , i'll clean up in a bit."Light then said as she tapped Bloody as she passed her.

Bloody looked down at the table where Light sat with Elijia and Melody on either side of her.

"Its fine, i can clean you know?"Bloody softly said.

Light nodded, and looked at around the table.

The table was really just a bunch of wooden pallets stuck together with heavy trunks put beneath them.

On the last trip to a village, Light had bought a colorful cloth and draped it over the pallets.

Elijia sat on the far left side, across from him sat Reed with Avalon.

Sario sat on the other side next to Melody.

Caos was sitting next to Terian and across from Bloody.

No one bothered asking where she was going, but Bloody was thankful that her friends were fine with her leaving now.

A few days after first waking up, Bloody had rampaged around in need of food,and had managed to find food in the jungle.

They found her eating a fish next to the river. Avalon had cringed and walked away.

After washing her plate in the water bins, and drying it off she walked towards her tree.

Bloody soon finished her apple and she threw it at a bush, where little critters soon had their paws on it.  

"Don't feed them, they might stay..." Claw said from her chair by the main tent in which meetings were held.

"Its fine." Bloody responded.

In the time in which Bloody was sleeping, Claw had changed.

Her once light eyes had darkened, and her ears had been torn slightly.

Claw was always a bit tense but now she was cautious around Bloody, her body screamed of needing to leave, but she wouldn't when Bloody came near.

"What now Claw?" Bloody murmured to a ponderous Claw.

"We need to work on out team work. Honestly i don't know if this is going to work out, you set everyone on edge, and you took out one of the stronger elements."Claw said, cringing at the cold look flashing from Bloody's now black eyes.

When she had first awoken she felt a ripping pain in her head, when she got up to look in a mirror her once blood red irises were a deep red which then turned pitch black.

Sario had only looked away when faced with the issue, and said they would change to be like hers.

"We need a new Fire Elementalist. Alright."Bloody snarled as she turned away and stalked off to her tree.

Though mostly everything about Bloody was the same, she seemed to be taking steps backwards as she went day to day with the group.

Soon she would have to leave. 

Someone would have to burst at some point.

Bloody knew it would be Caos.

He still joked around, because that was in his nature, but she saw how he looked away when he talked to her.

Bloody knew she would have to go soon, and the very thought of leaving Light, Melody, Claw, and the rest of them made her throat tighten, her jaw clench, her heart crumble.
