Devil pov
Eclipse laid on the ground unmoving which was pissing me off. I can't believe he was put right under my nose and I couldn't help him. I promised him I would help him no matter what, and I failed at that. He's on deaths door and I can't do anything. Iris is trying harder than I am and she knows my secret. I shudder as I looked towards my father and Iris. They're both looking pissed. Emense magical energy was emitting from both of them. I snuck away and went towards Eclipse to get him out of the way. I managed to get to him and got him out of the way as both my father and Iris went after that Cole guy. Their attacks were in sinc and time perfectly. It's almost like they've fought together before. It's bone chilling to think about in all honesty.

"Hey, you need to wake up... even for a small bit." I whispered to Eclipse and he opened his eyes a bit. I smiled weakly at him and picked him up.
"I'm sorry..."

"For what?"

"For breaking my promise."

"You didn't break it. Your here right? Any longer and you would have but I'm still alive right?"

"Ya but-"

"No buts, you did just fine."

"Thanks bud..."

"No problem. Thou I highly doubt these wounds will be easy to heal, mind helping when we get out of this?"

"I'd love to Eclipse. In all honesty, I'd be happy to help you with anything."

"The feelings mutual." He said with a bright smile. I smiled as. 'Wow I'm going to have to tell him sooner or later... it's hard thou!!! I've only known him for like 2 or so months!! How can someone fall so frickin fast!!!' I thought as we continued to walk back to the castle. Iris, Father, and I all agreed on a plan of attack. Iris and Father would fight off whoever got in the way while I got Eclipse out of the way and to the castle. Weird plan but it works.

"So, who IS that guy?"

"No clue... he said his name was Cole Wasbeen. He also said that he killed My Mother and Father but I don't know that for sure..."

"And that's the attitude you should have!"

"And why is that?"

"Because he could have been lying to you to try and get your guard down. It's a good strategy as some people, not just you, get extremely attached to their parents or guardians. It's perfectly normal to do that by the way."

"That's.... comforting...."

"Good to know!"

"You are oblivious. Heh..."

"I know."

"I said that out loud!? Oh I'm so sorry!"

"It's alright Eclipse. I know you mean no harm."

"Thanks."

"No problem."

"So where are we going Devil?"

"Ummm............... Do not worry! It is a surprise!!"

"I'm sure." He said cracking a smile. 'Adorable~ He is so cute~' I thought as we continued to walk to wherever we were going. Ya I need to find out where we're going. I took a look around and noticed that we found ourselves....

"Home...?"

"It would seem so." He said with a small smile before passing out. I nearly dropped him on accident seeing as he was helping and doing pretty good with walking with some help from me but surprise surprise, I'm a weak little shit. So.... I'm going to be having so much fun carrying him home. He's light, don't get me wrong. Lighter than an average male for his age at least so I won't have too much trouble but his voice was comforting. Now... I don't know if he'll wake. His breathing is very shallow, his heart beat soft and almost inaudible, his body practically out of energy.
