I've never seen Nuada this angry. The fire that burned in his eyes was that of pure hate. We made our way to the top of the troll market. There stood the demon with Nuala.
"You." They all turned around. "You will pay for what happened to my friend down there.
"Are we gonna talk all night cuz I'm really sleepy."
"Demon. Born from a womb of shadows and you still think that you belong." He held up the golden egg that housed the eledil.
"No brother no!" Nuala cried out but her protests were not heard. He activated it and held the green "bean" up to his mouth,
"Kill him." And he threw towards them. They all watched it and Nuada glanced at me. I shook my head and he took off to the left and I charged them just as the god fell into the water. The demon turned around just as I brought my sword down on the demons arm. My tattoos began to glow like a bright crystal. My hair was turning a bright fiery red. My powers weren't just to affect people's emotions. I began to attack the demon even harder and stronger; I called upon the strength of the forest god. I could feel its power flow through me. The earth trembled as the forest god sprung threw the ground the demon went after it and I was left to fight the fish and the woman. I shot crystals out of my hand towards them. I was over powering them. I got closer until I felt the demon shoot the forest god. A huge pain swelled in my heart. I let out a powerful scream and fell to the ground clutching my heart as he shot it again. I let another scream out. I looked up to see Nuala standing over me. She reached out to touch me,
"Don't, I don't wish to hurt you." She ignored my protest and placed her hand on me. I could feel the pain slowly leave my body and I began to loose consciousness. My eyes were barely open. Just long enough to see Nuada running to me. I felt my body being lifted into the air. Sleep took me. When I woke we were in the tunnels.
"How do you feel?"
"Sore. So what's our next move?"
"You will stay here while I confront the demon."
"No." I tried to stand and I did, but just barely, "I'm going with you." He lightly pressed me against the wall,
"No you're not." I put my hands on his chest,
"Yes I am." Gently he grabbed my hands,
"No you're not; you're powers will not work on me this time."
"Then how about this." I pressed our lips together. I kissed him slowly, torturously. I was going to do anything to go with him. He kissed back but then pulled away still holding my hands,
"Please, stay here. You are already tired and I do not want you to get hurt."
"I won't get hurt Nuada." I caressed his face and kissed him again, "I'll be fine. Besides," I wrapped my arms around him, "I've got you to protect me." He smiled and put his hand on my face,
"Very well then. You may accompany me." He kissed me again before we headed off down the tunnel unaware at to the major events that would soon unfold.
