The forest was very quiet that night, a moonlight reflecting on the river while the horses drank some pure water, other were sleeping already.

Her screaming voice startled not only the birds but the horses who were a little far from the scene.

"ALEEEX"

Rose shouted while running towards her husband who was drowning in blood.

Everyone's eyes were filled with shock.

Leaning down, placing his head on her lap while moving him gently.

"Alex, honey you will be alright trust me"

Rose said while her tears fell down on that huge wound, she was just trying to comfort him and pretend to be strong but she had no idea on how to fix it.

She took her shirt off and tore in in half, started wrapping in around the wound while her hands were shaky, she kept talking to him, his eyes were only pointed at her.

Coughing out more blood while she shouts again broken in tears calling for Evan who's feet went frozen for a second before she ran towards them followed by Mirai.

"Evan, help him please"

Rose begged while still pressing tight into the wound but no matter how much pressure she applied, the blood was not stopping.

Evan was the only one of them who knew about medicine and would usually take care of them.

The moment she saw Alex she knew there was no saving him but she could not believe it and so she immediately looked back at Mirai.

"Carry him towards the river i need water and my medicine is also where we left the horses"

Mirai stepped in carrying Alex who's eyes were the only thing moving, he was like a bloody corpse.

Evan ran to get the medicine while Rose did not let go of his hand even while Mirai was carrying him.

Venator's eyes were in between sadness and madness, he walked towards Aylin who was not bothered at all by the bloody scene she caused.

"How could you do that? prince Elmer made it clear that we must not kill anyone, all we needed was to buy some time"

He then yelled at her.

"I did buy us some time"

Aylin replied with her expressionless face.

He knew there was nothing to gain from talking to her and so he walked away without saying a word.

'She is used to this'

Hawk thought to himself, trying to snap out of his heavy messed up emotions.

He then walked towards Aylin who was watching Venator heading towards the river.

"You know, he has been friends with these people for years, I think you went too far"

Hawk said.

"I did not know that"

Aylin replied.

"Would you have done things differently if you knew?"

He then asked.

Aylin looked back at him nodding her head giving a positive answer.

"It's too late now, I have never seen someone survive such an injury"

Hawk sighed not knowing how to act now that they got the time they were trying to have so badly a few minutes ago.

After washing off the blood, Evan applied some medicine and used a clean tissue to wrap the wound up.
