Zed walked towards Syndra slowly, she was smiling but her mind was racing. She was scared, she didn't know how he would act or what he would do. He had fled once, was she prepared for him to do it again?

He stopped a few feet in front of her, looking wary.

"Syn, how could this... ?" he held his forehead with one hand, the other balled up in a fist by his side.

"I don't know, I didn't know i even could be, I mean ... I didn't know" she could feel herself begin to ramble and tears started to build, her throat beginning to burn. She could feel her losing him, he was angry.

"I can't be a father, and you can't be pregnant. Not now, we have everything to lose, and this means we lose you on the field, one of our strongest gone because we were so STUPID..."

"Zed please" she walked towards him and fell on her knees in front of him, "Zed, I know this will be hard but we can do this, please don't be angry please don't ..."

"You think I'm angry at you!?" he fell to his knees next to her and took her hands in his. "Syn, I'm not angry at you. I'm terrified, i can't lose you, and this is a risk. One i never thought i would have to be prepared to take."

He looked down at his knees still clasping her hands.

"I don't even know if I'm good evil or if I'm even all me. How am i meant to know what i put inside you?"

He was wearing his mask but she knew he was struggling to keep his composure, she could imagine his furrowed brow, his lips thinning, and his eyes beginning to pool just as hers had been. She took his face in her hands and made him look her in the eyes.

"Zed, don't you think I'm worried. I don't know what is inside of me either. I don't know anything about my past, my future, i don't know what's in here." She took his hand and placed it across her still flat stomach, resting hers on top of his.

"All i know is that it is ours, it's me and you, and no matter what i know it will be perfect if we make it so, but i need you on my side."

He stayed there, silent for a long time. It got to the point she didn't care what he said as long as he said something.

Her face fell as after a long time he just closed his eyes and moved his head away.

"I'm never leaving you, not for anyone or anything."

He grabbed her chin and rested his forehead against hers.

"Zed" she had begun crying now, her emotions becoming a blur of happiness, fear and feeling a little dizzy.

"Come now Syn, we need to get ..."

Their bodies were blown apart.

Syn managed to hold herself in the sky after a few moments to realise what had just happened.

Fire.

Everywhere.

Zed was no where that she could see, all she could see was red flames. On the other side of the flames, was a forest, full with lit torches, lit arrows, and the burning eyes of hundreds of faces hidden in the darkness.
