"I have to join you in battle field, huh?" Namjoon asked after pulling away from the embrace he had Diana in.

"Yes. You can still back out if you want," Diana told him softly.

"I'm not backing out. You're stuck with me," Namjoon told her, his chest rumbled and Diana hummed, a soft smile at her lips.

"Okay."

"Look at the lovebirds!" Seokjin called out, his arm around Candy. Candy stood up quickly when she saw Diana out of bed.

"Idiot! You still need rest!'

"No, we need to suit up," Diana answered. Namjoon smiled at his friends lightly when they heard that.

"Hyung, you can't be serious!" Jeongguk called out. Namjoon only gave him a tight lipped smile. Yoongi could sense Jeongguk feeling disappointed so he slowly brought him into his embrace. Hoseok noticed and inched closer as well, trying to be someone Jeongguk could rely on at this time.

"Namjoon-ah," Yoongi began, his voice coming out in a low drawl. "I hope you know what you're doing and what you're risking."

"I know hyung. But I have to."

"Besides," Diana piped up. "I can protect him" Yoongi nodded and he had a glint of worry in his eyes. Diana's eyes softened and she glanced up at Namjoon. I promise, she thought. I promise to protect you.

"Please be safe," Candy told Namjoon and Diana softly. By Diana's request, no one was allowed to exit headquarters while she was outside in the battle. Leaving everyone inside and worried for what was going to happen. Diana nodded and she clenched her katanas tighter.

"Don't worry. We will come back alive. I promise."

Namjoon looked out into the horizon and he sighed. It was a mess to say the least. The large pine trees that used to cover the building seemed to be ripped out by their roots. Some were cut, others were burned, but the entire area looked like a mess. Not to mention the nauseating smell of blood. The air seemed thick with the smell of iron and copper, as well as having a heavy tension that made it harder to take another step forward. He's been in very tense moments that always made his skin crawl, but this time, it was worse. This was no longer an argument with B-Free, or a talk about going solo with PD Bang; this was a matter of life or death.

Namjoon noticed Diana stop walking and he stopped next to her. He took in her tense shoulders and her twitching hands. He placed his hand on her shoulder and felt her detense. He smiled softly and he looked back at the wavering horizon. He squinted when he saw something at the skyline, or rather, someone. Diana stood back tall and she glanced out. Namjoon nodded and squeezed her shoulders. He hesitated but he bent down and placed a chaste kiss on her cheek. He didn't say anything, but he hoped it'll carry all of his emotions. He stepped back and ducked behind a pile of rubble.

They discussed this before, how Namjoon would stay on the battlefield, but he'll stay hidden just in case.

Namjoon peered over the rubble and could make out the fuzzy outline of a man walking closer to Diana. His breath hitched and he prayed that everything would turn out okay.

"Well sister. Seems like no one came to see you die," Apollo drawled after glancing around. Diana released a breath when she realized he couldn't see Namjoon.

"No, no one came to see me win." Apollo snarled and stopped right in front of her. She had to look up slightly due to the two inch height difference. Apollo smirked when he took in Diana's smoldering glare.
