Renault: Very well, on with the story!
Chapter 6: Truth be told.
"...Wha? ...Where the hell am I? What happen?"
Marqui awoke dazed and confused. And in Lyn's bed it looked like. '...But why?' he wondered. From what he 'dose' remember this makes no sense. Where is Karel? Where's Lyn? Wasn't he outside with them? He sat up in order to get out of bed. But for some reason he felt drained. Drained of all his strength. "Gods! Why do I feel so weak?" The sounds of footsteps forced him to instantly look up out of reflex. "Marqui!" Lyn almost gasped. "Hey Lyn." he said as she ran over and wrapped her arms around him tightly.
"Are you all right!" Her voice almost cracked. "You were fighting Karel! And then- you- just collapsed!" He wasn't sure what she was talking about, but what ever it was it was making her cry! Marqui has only seen her cry once! And that was years ago when she met her grandfather for the first time. He slowly but surely wrapped his arms around her and gently rubbed her back up and down.
"Lyn? Lyn its okay. I'm not sure what happened. But I'm fine. Honest."
"Are you sure? Your not lying, are you?"
As she pulled away a bit to look him in the eyes, something she wasn't ready for happened. The brilliant tactician closed the small gap between them captured her lips in a soft but yet very passionate kiss. Lyn could feel the blood rush to her face as her eyes almost automatically slowly began to close. It was then she found herself pressing her tongue against Marqui's lips, asking for Enterance. He complied instinctivly. The very taste of one another was sending their minds off to a far away place. They stayed like this for almost over a minute. "AHEM!" But were interrupted by a Certain swordsmaster. "I hate to be bother, but..."
"Karel!" Lyn jumped out of embarassment. "Have you been standing there the "entire" time!" He nodded.
"I trust that he's healthy?" Lyn could only blush and faintly nod. "Then I'll take my leave."
Before Karel left Marqui noticed that the deadly swordmaster's whole forearm area was covered with bandage, and there was signs of soaked up blood on them too. "Karel! Your arm, what happened?" He didn't even turn around to look at the tactician. He simply said, "You've impressed me." And he was gone.
"I wonder what he meant by that?"
"Marqui, you don't remember what happened?" He shook his head.
"Tell me what happened." He asked as he once again wrapped his arm around her. This time around her waist.
Before she could explain anything to him she had to get comfortable. She shifted her body so that her legs were on the bed and her back was press up against his chest. She couldn't help but noticed that this position almost felt natural for some Karel "I'm not sure but do remember how you and Karel were about to spar?" He nodded. And she felt it. "Well..."
XXXXXXXXFlashbackXXXXXXXX...
"Prepare yourself!"
'I won't die...!' As Karel rushed at Marqui he could see a demonic red glow escape from the tactician's eye!
'What... the hell...!'
He was gone! Was Karel's eyes playing tricks on him? Marqui simply vanished, right before his eyes! He then heard the snapping of a twig to his left. What he saw was Marqui making a quick trust towards his head! He lowered his body just in time to avoid it. He then countered with a rising slash. But the glowing eyed tactician jumped back a bit, avoiding the strike, then countered with a kick to Karel's jaw. Lyn's jaw instantly dropped as she witnessed the feared Karel kicked across the grass covered earth like a small stone on the ground. Karle needless to say was shocked. Wasn't he supposed to be the demon! The tactician was fighting like he was possessed! Well he wasn't going to hold back anymore! Karel was swift to recover from that kick given to him. This time it was he disappeared from sight. But to Lyn's surprise again, Marqui spun around and swung his sword which connected with the crimson blade of Karel's sword. The deflection of his sword caused him to reveal himself. And what a deflection! It almost knocked his sword right out of his hand! Karel decided to try his speed again. Once more vanishing. And once again Lyn was in shock with Marqui, as he to vanished after Karel! It was unbelievable! Some how he was matching his speed to Karel's! The sounds of their blades clashing against one another was the thing that told they were still around.
"Marqui! Karel! Your both taking this too far!" Lyn got no response out of the two.
They both suddenly appeared right in front of Lyn! Their swords in deadlock one trying to over power the other. And by looks Marqui was winning this test of strenght. "Stop it both of you! Are you trying to kill each other!" Once again Lyn's words were in vain. And the uncommon look of rage that Marqui's face was wearing was starting to scare Karel. Karle was sure now that he wasn't going to over power the tactician so he decided on a different approach. Instead of trying to push back, he decided to whip his sword back. He got exactly the kind of action he wanted. Marqui lost his balance and fell forward. An opening presented its self for Karel to strike. And he took it. The strike was close, but Marqui sprung away at the last possible moment letting only his pouch get cut from his belt. And Before Karel could defend himself Marqui jumped at him and bit into his wrist!
'Is he insane!' Karel thought as he dropped his sword.
And as if things couldn't get any stranger, Marqui's eyes rolled up into his head, and collapsed in front of Karel feet. "Marqui!" Lyn was at his side in a heartbeat. She almost made the speeds they were moving at look slow. "Marqui! Are you alright?"
XXXXXXXXEndofFlashbackXXXXXXXX
"And that's what happened..."
"Marqui?"
"...That's what happened? How come I can't remember any of that?"
"Lyn?"
"...zzzzzzzzz."
"Did she just fall asleep? Good grief."
'I should get some sleep as well I suppose. When I wake up I going to figure this out!' With one final kiss to the top of the woman he loves head, he followed her into sleep.
