One year later

My soul is jolted with electricity as my scard body forms back together ripping a soundless, airless scream from my lips. My eyes shoot open as the battle with Zimis fills my mind and I remeber the pain more then anything else. The pain of the poison filled acid burning me to nothing.

The sound of my heart beating again after so long of none use fills the darkness around me. I take a shallow breath filling my lounges as I look around the void. Zaine is floating in broken pieces and Zinyu is slowly puttting him back together. The pain of life subsides and I take a deep breathe filling my starved lounges. I float towards them and Zinyu's tear stricken face looks up at me. She smiles through her tears and reaches her darkness shackled hand towards me.

I take it floating over Zaine who is now in one piece but still lifeless. I am pulled against her side and she sighs. "Thank you Enyo. You took his life whilst I could not but in doing so you have unleashed something far worse then I have ever seen. Now Aonvouyu is searching for us and has found us several times. We have stoped him at every turn Zaine and I and kept this place safe for a year.

"Its been a year Enyo. You have been gone a year. I tried...over and over. You wouldn't come back not mater what I tried. They only way I could possible do so is forbidon but I would have done it anyways. I had thought you would never rise again." Zinyu says Her voice breaking.

I look at her dumbfounded. "A year...no. How did this happen?" I asks no one.

"The poison. There was so much of it with in you that it killed you." Zinyu says. Her hand slides under my shirt resting on my hip. A jult of electricity shocks her where her skin touches mine. "Now you will bear the Mark of the dead. It will appear on your skin every time you die till no room is left. If that happens you will not come back. The darkness is powerful but even it's power is limited when it comes to death." Zinyu says and slide her hand from my hip. She lets go of me as the darkness wrapes around her pulling her into oblivion.

I lift my shirt looking down at the small mark similar to a taliemark but with a crucked slash through it. It run my finger over it as it zaps me and I lift my finger to my eyes looking it over. It show no indications that I have been harmed. Strong arms gather me against a bear hard body and I turn barring Zaine's face into my chest.

I hold him close as a piece of the darkness chips away from his face revealing beautiful peach skin. More falls away from him as blonde curly hair fall around his face and I hold him tighter. The darkness falls completely away from him revelling a strong warrior with many battle scars and endless ropes of mussel. His light blue eyes that are dark blue rimmed look up to me with deep sadness and loneliness that it breaks my heart.

I kiss his forehead lightly as his hand slide over the flesh of my jaw and rest on my check. I pull him up so his face is inches from my own and he baries his face in the crock of my neck. His hot breaths warm my cold flesh as his lips press gently against me. My hand slide through his hair taking hold of the back of his head and I hold him close to me. His leg slides between mine pushing the shirt up and away from my nakedness.

My shirt is discarded both of us needing to feel flesh against flesh. Our bodies intertwine molding together his hardness against my soft. "Zaine." I whisper softly to him.

He nodes his head into the crock of my neck. "Why did you not tell me?" I ask him gently not wanting this to end. Oh. How I have missed this.

"You never asked." he says with a laugh that fades into a humorless one.
