Author's note: Hey everyone, how are you. not much to say. I just hope I'm not very out of character. I am trying to keep the personalities of the characters intact.
Disclaimer: Let's face it, If I owned Trinity blood, well lets just say that would be awesome and leave it at that.
Esther dried the tears from her eyes before they headed out. She wondered to herself why the Empress would want to see both Ion and herself. She could understand why she would want to see Ion, but she could not for the life of her understand why the Empress would want to see her. "I can't believe I always get stuck as babysitter for everyone, but I'm not one to argue with the Empress." Asta told them. Just then something leapt from the brush near Esther and grabbed her by the throat. "Move at all, you traitorous Methusalah and I'll cut this Terrans head clean off her shoulders." He young Methusalah barked out. She could already feel him scratching the dagger against the right side of her cheek. The cut was surprisingly deep and she could feel the blood running down her face. Ion couldn't take it anymore. "Let her go you son of a bitch." Ion yelled at the methusalah. He sped behind the methusalah about to stab it when the methusalah turned and made a crescent swipe up Ion's arm right to the shoulder blade. Ion panted a little "Silver, huh?" He asked the methusalah. "Big mistake." Ion yelled at the methusalah before sinking his sword straight into the methusalah's heart. Esther dropped from the methusalah's arm onto the ground hard. Asta had gone to chase off any others there might have been. He lifted Esther up over shoulder and started to run towards the palace. At the doors he was greeted by the guards. "Get the healers out here now. Can't you see this woman's hurt." He yelled out before losing consciousness.
Esther woke up with a splitting headache. "Don't sit up. You don't want to reopen the wound on your face." the healer said. The wound was on her cheek, but the bandage covered her eye as well because blood had gotten into it. Remembering the wound, she blurted out "What about the Earl of Memphis, is he okay?" The healer left without another word. She was getting worried 'What if I've gotten Ion killed' she thought to herself. She started to sob at the thought of that. She finally sobbed herself to sleep. In the other room, they had Ion attached to a blood drip on the I.V. because he'd lost to much blood to heal on his own. The Empress herself was worried if he was going to make it through this. One of the nurses came through the door. "Lady Esther has asked about the Earl of Memphis, and we thought it would be best if you told her the situation." the nurse told her. "Thank you, I'll attend to that right away." The empress said to the nurse.
