“I'm on a whole lot of fucking pain killers,” I said. My mind was a bit out of it. I was mostly thinking about who those two couples were. I couldn't feel a thing. but yet, Deckerd was here and my heart was pounding.

“What you call these pain killers...pfft...your a Demon you shouldn't even be affected by that shit,” Deckerd said

“I'm not entirely Demon...the Healing Church said I'm half Demon…”

“And you believed those asswipes, they don't even know what the fuck immortals are”

“You would know how?”

“I used to work for them as a bounty hunter…” Deckerd said.

“My old handler told me I was mostly human...that was before they killed him..”

“D.s...yeah...I heard about that…”Deckerd said. I teared up as he sighed

“Don't cry, you'll look like a dam baby doing that shit, the best thing is to stay tough for him?” he said. I wiped my eyes.

“Thank you…”I said

“I don't believe we formally introduced ourselves properly names Deckerd...Deckerd Shaw.”

“Elizabeth...Elizabeth Icena...but you can call me Emily” I smiled.

“Alright...Emily” he said.

“So where Mama Iren?” I asked

“She's looking for a new place for everyone, Victa and Owen went with her” Deckerd replied

“I see…” I looked down

“It was probably because of me…”

“What do you mean?” Deckerd asked. I clenched my fist

“Can you tell! There all xenophobes with me!” I sounded upset as he looked at me.

“AHHH it's a Demon! Let's burn her by the stake!” I said sarcastically

“So what if you're a Demon...you shouldn't let that get to you, ” Deckerd said

“Everyone hates Demons...even you...but they favor the Sentinels…” I said

“Look...people get all pissy at us Sentinels because they think we don't do our jobs at all, even a Warden like Ulysses has a hard time with Mortals...they just don't understand us 'beings'” Deckerd said. I looked away

“There just hypocrites,” I said

“Exactly,” Deckerd said. A brick was thrown through the window  as we both heard people shouting angrily

“Here comes the welcome committee…” I said. Deckerd sighed

“Honestly, I dont think you're that bad…” he said

“That's the first…” I said looking at him.

“My reasoning is because it seems like you've had a rough life so far...people just underestimating you…”

“It's common…” I said.a smoke bomb was thrown in as a stranger enters, Deckerd got up and slow swept the stranger and got on him pinning him down.

“EMILY! clear the smoke! “ he shouted I heard a familiar voice as my eyes widened. I  stood still frightened, unable to move

“Project E-36… surrender now or die by my hands” said the stranger

“You…” I growled and got up stomping on the ground clearing the smoke away. Deckerd got up and punched the other stranger in the arm breaking it.

“Yes it is I...harold,” the stranger said

“SHUT IT! ASSWIPE”deckerd shouted
"Over ego much" I commented

“Ahh...Shaw...is that you, ”Harold laughed

“Oh, this is just rich...FIRE” I saw Deckerd get shot multiple times in the head and chest. Cracks started to form on me turning red.

“HAROLD!” I shouted. I saw bullets bounced off of Deckerd as he was healed. the bullets ended up hitting Harold's men killing them instantly.

“Pfft, you got stronger…” Harold said. He broke Deckard's arm and got up.

“Bomb the area…make sure no one leaves” Harold told his guards. He looked at me, my cracks were glowing, I grabbed Harold kneeing him in the gut and throwing him near Deckerd, Deckerd than punched Harold in the spine paralyzing him temporarily.

Deckerd then grabbed Harold's gun shooting the Healing Church guards, picking up Harold, and held his hand out to me.

“Let's go Emily...you're still recovering so I'll help u walk,” he said. I nodded and took Deckerd's hand. My cracks fade and I became stable. I took a few steps before I became dizzy. Deckerd then picked me up and carried me, I felt his heartbeat I blushed.

“Let's get out of here,” he said. I nodded and started to relax

“I would love that…” I said Deckerd walked outside and laid me down gently, and threw Harold at the ground in front of the royal guards

“This guy responsible for the attack”

“Thank you,” the guard said. Deckerd helped me up slowly.

“Think you can walk Emily?” he asked

“A small bit” I replied

“Alright...let's take it easy then,” he said. We started walking slowly at first. I noticed Mama Iren as she ran to us.

“Miho! Emilia! Are you two ok? How was the hospital?” Mama Iren asked

“Were ok Mama...Emily just needs rest…” Deckerd replied. Mama Iren hugged me and Deckerd gently...
