Loves Bond

Authors note: I forgot to mention that the others are actually watching

The tests in through the Aura Spring. Also there is foreshadowing about Joel and Lily's relationship will go from here.

-Joel's Test-

Joel had recognized the place easily. Especially when you could not forget about it. It was the lab where he and Shadow were created. He recognized the metal floors and vents, The strange machinery. As he began to look around he came across Lily under one of the only lights unconscious.

Joel immediately ran up to her used his powers to heal her. She began to open her eyes.

"J..Joel." She stammered.

"It's o.k. Lily. I'm here now." he said trying to comfort her. Unfortunately it did not work. She knew she was dying. But first she had to confess something. Joel also saw that she was not going to make it.

" Joel" she said weakly.

"Yes, Lily" he asked quietly holding her hand.

"When you came back to me from Malic, I was so happy, Truthfully I was hoping we would get married one day…" Lily said blushing.

"I feel the same." Joel admitted.

-Outside the test-

Lily was blushing redder than a tomato. Could her dream of being Joel's wife come true. She then heard a voice next to her.

"Lily"

It was her father. Sensing her discomfort on the marriage subject he decided to make it short.

"Relax, I already talked to him about it. It's okay." He smiled at her.

" Oh thank you dad." She screamed happily.

Then feeling they missed something..

"What is going on?" Violet asked.

"Something we should know?" Daisy asked confused.

-In the test-

"Joel" Lily said weakly.

" What is it Lily?" Joel asked.

"It's about who did this to me…" Lily began.

The look in her eyes said it all.

"Promise me you'll stay the Joel I love." Lily said smiling.

"I promise Lily." Joel said with a smile as well.

"I love you Joel…"

And with that his beloved died in his arms.(or he thought. Apparently he forgot this was a test.)

"And they say love can't be defeated." said a cold voice.

'No…' Joel thought. Sure enough it was..
