Our Fate (SuperGirlyGamer and FuriousDestroyer Fan Fic)

Chapter 7

Something wakes me up in the middle of the night. I sit up and look around. FuriousDestroyer is sound asleep on his "bed" and his armor and swords are propped up against a tree not to far away from his "bed". I look the other way towards the trees. The sound is a low rumbling that seems to shake the whole forest. The trees suddenly shatter and a dark creature lunges at me. I put up my hands as defence.

"SuperGirlyGamer!"

FuriousDestroyer has his blades in his hands he lunges at the creature. He's not wearing his armor. Before he can swing, the creature scratches his torso. He doesn't flinch. He swings his blades at the creature. His blades tear through the creature's flesh like butter. The creature shrieks and collapses to the ground. Dead. FuriousDestroyer stands there shaking.

"FuriousDestroyer!"

He starts falling backward. I catch him just in time. I lay him down on the ground as gently as I can. The sun starts rising thankfully. FuriousDestroyer's shirt is ripped and drenched with blood. He's panting hard and his face is contorted with pain. I rip off his shirt. Three large, deep gashes line his torso. I start panicking. Mama Big Bertha told me to cover wounds and to apply pressure. I start ripping up the dress that I'm wearing. It's an old dress that Minerva let me borrow. I press the fabric down on his wounds. He groans.

"I'm so sorry FuriousDestroyer. I'm so sorry..."

I start crying. I try not to get any tears in his wounds. I keep applying pressure until his bleeding finally stops. I toss the blood-drenched pieces of cloth to the side. My hands are completely red. I tear more of the old pieces of clothes that Minerva gave me into long strips of fabric. I slowly prop him up against a tree. He groans in pain. I wrap the strips of fabric around his torso and tie them tightly.

When I'm done, I try calming him by putting my hand on his strong cheek. He finally opens his eyes. They are a bright blue just like Minerva's. His eyes are full of pain though. His hair is a beautiful shiny black also like Minerva's. His beautiful voice matches his perfect face. If it wasn't so full of hurt. His body is lean and muscular. He closes eyes again and he leans against my hand.

The sun has now risen. I look at the creature. The creature is dark blue and black with huge claws. Three of them are stained with blood. The Furious Blades are still planted in its body. I look back at FuriousDestroyer. He's breathing a bit quicker but still slowly. His eyes are still closed but I know he's not asleep.

There must be something I can do to help him.

"...they have magical healing properties..."

The enchanted golden apples!

I riffle through my stuff. There's not much stuff in my collection so I instantly find it. I grab my hoe and chipped off a little piece of apple.

"FuriousDestroyer!"

He opens his eyes again. I bring the sliver of apple to his mouth. He slowly chews then swallows. We repeat the process over and over again until he's completely finished.

"Try to go to sleep okay?"

"They've found us SuperGirlyGamer. We have to leave as soon as possible."

"Don't worry about it right now. Go to sleep."

I grab his makeshift bed and drape it over him.

The rest of the day I spend taking care of him. At around noon, he musters enough energy to talk.

"SuperGirlyGamer. I can't go on for much longer like this."

"Then what are we supposed to do?"

"The wielder of the Protector's Staff, Lucinda, lives not to far away from here. She's a potion maker. She can heal me. The tricky part is trying to find her though. She uses her magic to stay hidden."

"We can head out tomorrow morning then."

He nods his head and drifts off to sleep again.
