Chapter 7: Trouble in Hamel Part One

Okay I know I'm a terrible person I didn't update yesterday. but I have solid reasons! 1- My aunt was visiting from across the country n she left yesterday :( 2- I haven't actually gone all the way threw Hamel my highest lv chara is only 57 (for shame I know I've played the game like 2 months before Ara came out and I'm not maxed yet? leave me alone I'm lazy Okay!?)XD so here is trouble in Hamel part one

"Okay guys about 5 more minutes and we'll be in Hamel," Elsword said I pulled Aisha back.

"Hey I don't know if you like my brother, but I know he likes you," she flushed," so if you could keep him busy I need to sit back with Chung he's... not doin good. Please Aisha like I said I don't know if you like him I thought you might, but I haven't been the best with these things," Aisha blushed even more.

"Of course I will Elesis, and you're right ever since we stopped arguing... I think I might like him. I wasn't sure if... wow Elesis you're a great big sister," Aisha said full of hope.

"Thanks Aisha I really mean it. You are a really good person," Elesis said as Aisha went to preoccupy Elsword. She walked back to Chung who sat on a fallen tree with his head in is hands.

She sat down and rubbed his back as he said," We're all good people Elesis," he paused," Even Add.

"I don't know I've seriously been a bad sister," Elesis said trying to hide how much she meant it, but Chung could see through that.

"You're not a bad sister from what I've seen even when you were gone you still thought about him, still cared about him," Chung rolled his face over so she saw half of it as he smiled. This isn't about me. I'm here for Chung stop being selfish Elesis! "Hell you care so much about everyone else I bet you just scolded yourself for talking about yourself. That doesn't make you selfish Elesis," he chuckled as Elesis turned red.

"It does too! Look at what just being near Hamel does to you! and I'm not sure how to help," Elesis mumbled ashamed of herself.

Chung put his arms around her, almost as if they're cuddling, and snuggled into her neck. She smells so sweet. "Just be here for me Elesis. You know how you said stuff about being a rock? You were right I try, but sometimes I falter. I want you to be a shoulder for me to lean on ok?" very softly so soft Elesis wasn't sure if she heard it or imagined it," forever and always be here With me Elesis?"

"Forever and Always I'll be here for you Chung. No more hiding. I'm done with that. I wanna be here for you out in the open I want you, forever and always," Elesis blushed afraid she'd opened up too much. Chung's heart sped up in his chest, and again he wanted to kiss her. To nervous he instead pulled her closer.

"Thanks Elesis."

*********************************************************************(Hamel Time! see what I did there? XD)

"There's more demons than Feita and Velder combined!" Ara said shocked. Maybe I'll find brother here she thought hoping.

"Yes from my calculations it's also bigger than Feita and Velder combined too, so naturally more demons than both the cities. Not to mention it's had the demons longer, so they've been running rampant," that last bit made Chung wince thinking of how he'd neglected his city his kingdom Our Kingdom Father! You will be saved! There's nothing Elesis and I can't do!

The instant Chung was spotted hope filled Hamel. "Chung Seiker has returned! He is well again! We will be saved! He's even brought hep!" the citizens of Hamel were saying and applauding the return of their future king. Chung lead the group into Hamel since he knew it best, and Rena pointed out that Elesis has troops here so she should also be in the front secretly everyone, except Elsword, just wanted Elesis to be there for Chung.

"Elesis! Chung! You've returned!," Penensio shouted clearly happy to see the royal and his leader again.

"Bring us up to speed," Elesis said skipping the mush and wanting to jump right in for Chung's sake she wanted this over asap, and jumping right back in to her role as leader of the Red Knights did just that. While Penensio brought Elesis and Chung up to speed the rest of the Elgang decided to familiarize themselves with what will be their home and battle grounds for the next week maybe more. Hamel is in very dire need. I hope Chung will be okay. he's acting like a rock, but I know better. He's shaken so hard I'm doing all the talking. That's okay though I must resume my leader position anyways. I'll get to work closely with him though seeing as how this IS his kingdom. "We will save your kingdom Chung," Elesis said bowing to the royal in a sign of respect, but really just joking trying to make Chung laugh or even just smile.

"Elesis get up come on. No need for that," He said a smile a mile wide on his face. She smiled right back.

"But sir, You are-" Chung interrupted.

"You know what I mean goof," they both instantly were self conscious seeing as how Penensio was right there.

"You guys don't need to worry all the red knights have been hoping you guys would realize your feelings for each other," he said innocently making both Chung and Elesis blush," Hell we've been making bets for awhile on when it would happen. Thanks to you myself and a couple other red knights just won about a million ED," he said with a wink.

"Cuz ya know that's not unprofessional or anything," Elesis joked just making the guys smile. Elsword came up to them just then worrying the shit out of Elesis thinking he'd find out about Chung and her.

"So I was wondering should I get an Inn for us?" Elsword asked showing no signs of knowing about them.

"None of us our staying in an Inn Elsword come on. This is a town that Chung is a ruler of. A tow where Red Knights keep watch. We'd stay in the castle, but I don't think that's safe," Elesis looked at Chung seeing for a yes or no, and he nodded that she was right," We're staying with the Red Knights."

"Gotcha I'll tell the team," he replied, and left them alone again.

"You don't think he knows do you?" Elesis asked to no one in particular.

"Nah no offense Elesis, but Elsword is kind of dense," Penensio replied.

"I've noticed, but he has his moments," she said thinking of the times he'd impressed her.

****************************************************(just finished Heart of Ancient Waterway)

"I didn't even know some of this was here. Man I wasn't a great ruler," Chung mumbled only for Elesis's ears.

"You weren't the ruler Chung don't feel that responsible. I know you tried your hardest," she said comforting him.

"Yea! and you have us now! We won't fail you!" Aisha shouted since she'd been ease dropping. The gang looked at Chung smiling and showing their commitment.

"You guys are the best," Chung smiled.

"Could I make a request in this light mood?" Eve asked.

Add butted in causing Eve to roll her eyes at him. She smiled about it though," Could you hold all of us dude?"

"What?" Chung asked confused. The whole gang started to laugh.

"Your cannon is obviously heavy, so I've been wondering if you could hold all of us like even on your cannon?" Add asked.

"He's been obsessing about it, and actually I wanna know too," Rena said causing more laughter.

"Ummm, okay?" Chung said kind of surprised at the goofiness of the group.

"Excellent!" Eve said. Once everyone was on Chung lifted, and Elesis wasn't surprised that he did it. Chung grinned like crazy.

"Ya know for a smaller dude you pack a punch," Add said.

"He's like...," Ara thought for a moment," A teddy bear, yet still deadly," she said making the gang laugh Chung almost dropped them from the laughter.

Elesis leaned over and whispered in his ear," You'll be my teddy bear won't you?" she asked only playfully, but Chung was serious for a moment.

"Always," then he was back to happy and smiling. Her face is so close. Her lips are right there, and Chung probably would've leaned in and kissed her, if he wasn't holding the whole gang on his shoulders. "Alright get down were outside of Magmanta's Cave, and poison is a serious issue here. There's a bunch of spiders," Chung said fore warningly.

"Sp-spiders!?" Aisha practically clung for dear life to the person next to her who happened to be Elsword.

"You're scared of spiders?" Elsword asked teasing her," Of all the things I would not have pinned you to be scared of spiders," He chuckled.

She looked up at him," You know what? I've had bad experiences with them, so cut me a break," she said looking him straight in the eye. Elsword stopped his heart hammering in his chest as he looked at her face, her body clinging to him, her violet eyes.

"okay," was all he could manage, and everyone jumped down pretending not to notice the scene. Elesis, Rena, Ara, and Eve smiled at each other.

"Pay up," they said to the guys, and after grumbles and complaints they did making everyone laugh. Elsword and Aisha weren't paying attention though.

He- did he? Elesis was right. "Elsword," Aisha mumbled.

"Aisha," he whispered.

Quickly really only wanting to get a move on Raven snapped them back to reality," Come on guys!"

"Coming!" they shouted.

As they went through Marmanta's Cave poison spread rampant through them. They found some missing Red Knights, and then it was time for Magmanta. Everyone was going at him hardcore. *Elsword- Storm blade and Splash Explosion Aisha- Screw Driver Tornado and Wormhole Rena- Furious Engage and when she noticed everyone was getting poisoned stepped back and used Trapping arrow buster so she could help their poison w/o being worried about her poison :p Raven- Hellfire Gatling and Ignition Crow Napalm Eve- Spitfire Flush and Space Wrench Chung- Dread Chase and Wonder Wall (the team needs that support) Ara- Swallow Assault and White Tiger attacks Elesis- Saber Extinction and Juggernaut Buster Add- Neutron Bomb and Particle Prism* "We're getting no where. He keeps poisoning us and jumping back not to mention those spider babies!" Elsword shouted.

"How do you know they're his babies?" Aisha shouted back curiously.

"How do you know it's a he!?" Elsword retorted.

"You called it a he first!" she shot back.

"Now's not the time guys!" Rena shouted busy helping the team with their poison.

"It is a he And those are his babies," Eve said," I've already run DNA checks. I just don't understand how there's still so many!"

"Cuz they're not dead yet!" Add said being a smart ass, and earning himself a quick slap.

"Hey cut it out guys!" Rena said starting to get mad.

"Dread Chase!" "Saber Extinction!" Chung and Elesis shouted at the same time getting the last blow on Magmanta. Elesis fell down to one knee though as soon as her attack was done. "Elesis!" Chung shouted worry evident on his face. Elesis passed out to the floor almost like she was dead, but Chung saw her chest moving barely.

"Elesis!?" Elsword said.

"Back away guys!" Rena shouted," She's poisoned bad! I wondered why I never treated her. Give me more space!" Hang in there Elesis!
