~Rythians Perspective~

With an evil grin on my face, I watched as Xephos reacted to the magic field disappearing. It was a joy and somewhat a relief to see the brown haired man trying to save his blond friend. All of it was just so...

Pathetic

Deep down, in a still resanable part of my soul, a voice was telling me to stop, that this was stupid and only helping it to take over. Though, I wasnt listening.

I started walking down the hill I was watching them from when I suddenly stumbled and fell. Hitting my head, rolling around and cuttig up some skin before finally stopping.

"Aww" I groan and grip my head with my hand. What was I thinking? Strawberrys? No. What is that even? A lightbulb enlights in my mind.

"No, please dont say I..." My voice breaks. I might seem cold and heartless but deep inside I'm a kind and caring person. But only a few people have seen that part of me. Zoey knows.

Well, knew

A single tear rolled down my cheek, burning as it fell. My hands clutched the grass underneigh me as many more tears came.

Why did it have to be this way? Did Duncan really need to overreact and blow Blackrock up? I only...

Duncan...

Did I not overreact just moments ago? I was not any better of a human.

But your not human...

"Shut Up!" I screamed at the quiet trees around me. "Shut up" The words were followed by a series of hysterical sobs. Why could it not just shut up?

~Teeps Perspective~

My paw pounded as I looked at the scene before me. The redheaded girl I once shot, loved, threatened and finally saved lay before me. Her pale skin was cut, bruised and burnt in many places. Was she going to survive?

"T-teep?" Slowly and probaly painfully, my name was wispered by Zoey. If I werent mute I would have told her that everything would be alright. But I couldnt so instead I picked her up. It was painful, my paws terribily hurt but for her I would do it a thousand times more. With slow and careful steps I carried Zoey out of the crater. Where should I take her? Who did I know that could save her?

Could she even be saved?

~Xephos Perspective~

As soon as Rythian left, the forcefield disappeard and I ran do aid Duncan in any way I could. He was bleeding heavily and his puls was weak, almost nonexisting. I ripped of my jacket and used it to slow the bleeding by putting pressure on it. My fine red and golden jacket quickly got soaked with blood. And even if I knew Duncan would die from the poison anyway, I did not stop.

I dont know for how long I sat there, but it felt like an eternity as I watch all the colour disappear from the scientists face.

"Stay with me" I murmured. Who would understand all the technical nonsens if Duncan died? Definatly not the drunk and passed out dou over in the mud atleast. Honeydew was almost as bad.

"Xephos?" A soft hand on my shoulder and I jumped a little. My head spun around. There she was. My loved Lomadia. For years I had been watching her from a distance and spoken to her many times. Her long blond hair, blue clothes and an owl hat. Everytime she smiled, her face lit up like a firework. But now, she was pale and a worried expression filled her face.

"Are you alright?" Her soft words slowly sinked in and so did the terror of this particular scene. Suddenly, my lips started trembling and big tears rolled down my cheeks.

" I don't know..."

I actually forgot I was writing this book and did not notice it untill today. It was quite a while since I updated but here is one. Much enjoyment I guess. :P

Seeeyaaa!
