Blood was holding two blades, his Imperial Odin blade, and my own. Black hair flowing, eyes narrowed, the Bloodfall leader turned to Rage. "Take her team, and help her, Seer and I will hold him off so you guys can escape."
Rage nodded and ran to me, while Seer, Blood, and Victoriana fought Aries. "You are no longer my child!" Hissed The angel of war. "Why? Because you and my father are cowards?" Aries struck her in the side, sending her back. Joe managed to catch her. "Thanks.." She huffed. "Don't mention it." Joe set her down and begun to shoot arrows towards Ares's head. Ares was too quick, he dodged them, and sent Joe flying towards a boulder.
Rage made it to me. "I couldn't help you.." I murmured. The celestial Maiden was trying heal me.
"Don't worry about it. Just hold on." Rage was working furiously to wrap up my head with some medical tape.
My eyes were focused on Seer, he was trying to fight of the monster. He lost his footing, and slid in the mud. Aries used this to his advantage, he kicked Seer, sending him towards the mountain. "No!" Bloodheart threw himself in front of Seer. Poor Blood was just pushed aside, and hit in the head.
"Tell my father I said hello." Aries was ready to strike. I couldn't let him hurt Seer.. I grabbed My blade from Rage, who held it. With my remaining strength I made my way to Seer. "Suck on this." I hissed swinging towards Aries's head.
He deflected it. "Really? Isn't your hip broken?" He struck my face, and kicked me in my bad hip. All I heard was a snap as I fell to my knees.
Blood poured from my right eye and my vision blurred. Seer had his arms around me, pulling me towards him as we waited for our death.
It never came. "I'd rather die than let you harm this child!" Lorelei had shielded us with her magic. "I love her! She is my hero and I will protect her with my life!" She hissed. A pink, bright barrier sat in between her, and Ares's blade
"Then die you will." Aries stabbed her in the chest, breaking the barrier. "Then die I must." The blond angel whispered before collapsing.
Aries just watched as the Angel fell. He eventually yawned, and said: "This war is over. You are all just pathetic mortals. I'm done here." The monster walked off, uninjured, into the forest.
"Lorelei!" I screamed, catching her in my arms. I cradled her to my chest as golden blood cascaded down from a gaping hole in her chest.
"Honey..please don't cry..I'll always be with you." Lorelei..my sweet angel placed a hand on my cheek, and stroked it.
She was pale, and crystallizing.
It started at her feet. Little bits of her were crystallizing and breaking off, flying away, becoming little clear, bright specs.
"I can't lose you. I can't! Please, I can help you, just stay with me!" I cried. Tears of blood and sadness streamed down my cheeks. "I still need you! Gods no, I love you Lorelei."
"Don't cry love. I'll be with you..always. I'll be waiting for you..in Nirvana..Just know that I'm proud to be your angel. I'll never regret saving you. It's okay..I'm okay.
Just never forget me..I'm happy it got to be you..I got you as a hero..Just know..I love you. I love you, Bane the Hero. I love you..don't ever forget, that's the truth." Lorelei kissed my forehead. Her hand finally crystallized and dissolved, and I felt her stop breathing.
I couldn't control myself anymore. I lost it. I screamed, I cried, I begged for her, I called out to her. "Stay!" I cried/yelled. She was gone. With a blast of light, everything but her staff dissolved. She looked like flower petals, flowing in the wind.
When the final piece of her was gone, I whispered into the wind. "The God's have betrayed me! They are no longer with us, they are against us." Clinging to her staff, I collapsed into a crying, bloody mess.
Seer was with me. Holding me in his arms. Mikaela was there. I heard her voice. "Take her home. Her battle isn't here."
Blood spoke next, explaining what had happened when he arrived.
"I'll escort you. Lorelei..Lorelei was my friend." Mikaela helped Seer carry me.
"I'll come with you." Blood and Rage spoke at the same.
"I saw..I saw what he wanted. I heard everything. He wanted more than just blood." Bloodheart hissed.
Mikaela hissed when Blood told what he saw. He was right, he saw everything.
I was only half listening. I started to get nauseous from the smell of blood, and dizzy, from losing so much.
Eventually I blacked out, still crying from the loss of my Angel, and one of my best friends.
