Hello, everyone, it's me again! I have decided to collaborate with a really really really good friend of mine, and she's here to post her story as well!
You would refer to her as 'Twilight Angel' :)
We'll be under the same name, but nonetheless, enjoy this Lucian and Karma story!
(P.S. Thank you to my first follower and favourite on my other story between Ahri and Ekko, titled 'The Temptress and the Child of Zaun, I hope you'll enjoy this too!)
1. Defeat
Lucian sat on the edge of the cot, elbows on his knees, his chin on his fists. Fresh blood dripped on the floor from open wounds. His eyes were nearly shut, but glaring. He was looking at everything; he was looking at nothing.
"Lucian, lie down. You're bleeding." Karma had fresh bandages in her hand along with a mixture unknown to the common people, used by warriors and supports to heal wounds.
…Without moving an inch, Lucian barked, "I'm fine. You saw who we were fighting. You saw him laughing at us…at me?"
Of course, Karma saw. She was his support, his protector, there, shielding him from harm and tethering the enemy so that Lucian could bravely deal them damage. It never helps in a battle when emotions come into play.
They were battling Thresh and his common soldiers. Along with that, Thresh had released several souls of whom he deemed "unimportant" to fight alongside. This hurt Karma to see. Everyone is someone to somebody. Everything was going well until Hecarim ambushed them and pinned Lucian against a wall. It was all Karma could do to get them both out alive, as Thresh laughed, safe behind his minions.
"I'm going back out." Lucian attempted to stand, but his knees buckled and he looked dizzy, probably from the blood loss from his still-open wound. He landed on the cot with a thud and a harsh exclamation of pain escaped his lips. "Give me your damn witches' brew so I can go finish the job."
Karma looked away. It stung her to have him speak to her so harshly. They fought many battles together, many victories, some losses. During this time she grew more fond of him. She had tried to tell him, but his only interest was in vengeance for his wife, Senna, whom Thresh had taken the life, and soul, from.
"No, you are not going back out there. The new wave was already sent in. Do you want to disobey orders?" Lucian sulked at the thought, and finally drank the potion and fell fast asleep.
Karma dressed his bleeding wound, tears rolling down her face as she cleaned up the area of his blood.
Leave reviews! I'm sure she'd love to hear feedback from you :)
