Chapter 10: The Truth of her Majesty
The armor man, Luna, Nyx and Ava ran through the hallway and found themselves in the garage. They all look around and spot a car as the armor man spots a motorcycle. The three ran to the car as the man ran to the motorcycle. He mounts onto it as the three climb into the car, but Luna and Ava stop and looks up at the statute of the Lucian king from long ago, then Ava looks at Luna and places her hand on her shoulder, "Luna." she states, she looks at her, nods and they both climb inside.
Nyx starts the car as the motorcycle roars, then the car moves and the armor man follows them, leaving the garage and the citadel.
"Lady Lunafreya has escaped with the ring. Find her at once. She is not to leave the city." Glauca orders the others.
The car drives out of the tunnel and onto the road, "Ulric to command. Come in, captain." Nyx tries to get a hold of Drautos, Ava leans forward, wipes her tears away with sniffle as she looks at the news that was playing. The armor man follows right behind them. 'Footage of the perpetrators was captured by a nearby surveillance camera. Here are images of the six subjects.' the report states as pictures of the six, Libertis Ostium being one of them. "Crap." Ava mutters as she recognizes his face, Nyx looks as well. 'One has been identified as Galahdain refugee, Libertis Ostium, a former member of the Lucian Kingsglaive.' the reporter states and Ava leans back into her seat and press her hand to her forehead.
Hatting Niflheim even more for the lies they promise to people and how those promises will spread. "Dammit!" swore as he best friend was now a traitor to Lucis. Luna looks at him as Ava shook her head, but then Luna shrieks as they were fired at. Nyx swerves the car a little as the armor man behind them, dodges the firing as well. Ava looks out her window at the transport ship with traitor glaives on the opening. Her eyes pulse as she was able to see their faces, rage boils in her as she saw Luka Defimen. He just laughs "This guy doesn't know when he's beat." he snorts, making Ava growl and the man following them smirks to himself. "Can you drive?" Nyx asks Luna, she looks at him, "I can try." she answers.
Then takes the wheel as Nyx climbs his way into the back next to Ava as she looks at him and moves out of the way, but he grips onto her leg and pulls himself in the back with her and his face lands in her chest. She blushes and looks down at him as he pulls his face up and looks at her. "Hi." he mutters, she scoffs with disbelief in her smile. "Hi." she answers and he pulls himself off her. Then opens the door and leans out of it a little, "I'll be right back he tells them then pops his head out, then his dagger to the transport ship. But he didn't jump to the ship, then realization hits him. He lost his powers when the king died, he then looks back and saw that Ava was gone. "Ava?" he calls out and looks in the front. Then they were fired on again, making Luna swerve and Nyx to crash to the side as the door slams close. "Give me the wheel." he tells her and grips the wheel. "Go!" he orders and she moves back to the side
Luka laughs again as he took a hold of the blade and pulls it out of the metal, "No warping for you this time, hero." he chuckles up then looks up and gasp in surprise as Ava was right in front of them, she glares at them with death in her eyes. "Hello again, boys." she said in a dark tone. Damous growls and charges at her from behind, but she quickly ducks, spins back around, pulls out her blade, stood back up and thrust it into his neck. He gasp at her as the other two step back in shock as Ava was not happy. "Say hello to the Ifirt." she growls then pulls her blade out and he collapse onto the ground, dead.
She then turns to the other two and they take another step back from her, "What's wrong? You scared?!" she growls at them in a hissing tone. Luka glares and looks over at Patgullous, "Get her." he orders and shoves him forward, but her hands move fast then they could blink, gripping his neck and snaps it. She then tosses him to the side and steps closer to Luka as he then growls at her. He charges forward, raising Nyx's blade at her, but she moves fast again, griping his wrist and thrust her blade right into his belly. He gasp and looks at her as her eyes glared right at him, "That's fpr Crowe. Traitor." she growls at him then he lets go of Nyx's blade, letting Ava catch it and he slips off her blade and collapse onto the floor, coughing up blood as Ava stood over him.
Luka just glares at her, "You don't know when you're beaten." she quotes his words right back at him, "Fucking Ulric whore." he snaps at her, she said nothing as she places her foot on his neck, "I'd rather be his whore then a slave to the empire's lies." she tells him, he looks at her, "They were going to kill you anyway, so… why not take that away from them?" she states and with a twist of her leg, she snaps his neck and he dies instantly. "Hearth and home." she said the glaive oath and vanishes from sight.
Luna looks at Nyx, "You are without your magic." she states and he shot a look at her, "You notice that, huh?" he states as the armor man dives up next to them as a truck was right behind them, "It must of died with the king." Nyx states as Ava reappears back in the car. "You're making a mess in my city, Glaive." the guard from before calls out and they look behind them. "I'd thought I told you not to go playing hero?" he questions him. Ava shook her head, surprise he even came. Then shot a look at Nyx as he was surprise he was back in the seat, "I'll tell you later." she states and sat back down. "Leave the ship to me. You and your girl got a royal fare to see to." he states and drove up next to them.
He looks over at the ship and fires onto it, the turrets fired right back at him, he looks at the three in the car and fall back. But Nyx didn't stop as another transport ship flies right to them as Nyx makes for the curve, then the back opens to a Niflheim walker in the back, Ava gasp right at it. The man growls then took out his whistle, then blows on it, a sound did not come out of it, but then a roar echos, making the three turns and saw a black dragon fly out and shot black fire at the transport ship, the walker got out in time but the rest of the ship caught fire and spins out of control as crashes into the ground below. But the walker block the way, making Nyx head straight for the rail, "Oh god." Ava mutters as she brace herself, the armor man dives straight for it, then they both went over the edge.
Diving right for the docks below. The bikes crashes onto the ground as the armor man was flapping his wings, hoovering in the air. He then watches the car take nose dive, flips onto its top and lids forward. He follows after them as the car came to a stop right on the edge. "Move it." Nyx orders Luna and she gets out in time as the car went over the edge with Nyx and Ava still inside. The armor man flies down to Luna and helps her to her feet, then they saw the walkers jump down onto the roof and heads right for them, but the black dragon shot fire between the two, making a line and separates them. "Come." the armor man states and pulls Luna along and quickly make their way down the stairs.
The car slides down between the two buildings as Ava pulls herself into the front, then Nyx moves quickly and turns the car onto the side, hopping to slow the descend down. But they hit a cooler, making Ava gasp and Nyx grunt, falling out of the car, but the both held onto the car, seeing an office window in front of them. They swing inside and roll onto the carpet ad the car continues its fall to the ground. Ava lifts her head up as Nyx did so as well. "Maybe not all miracles are made by magic." he states pulling himself onto his hands and knees and Ava flops her head back to the ground, groaning.
~8~8~8~
Luna and the armor man make a run for it, but the walker above fires right at them, the armor man moves fast and shielded Luna from the incoming fire. Nyx and Ava pop out of the building and saw that the two were cornered. Then saw a transport ship come into view and aim their weapons at him and Ava, "Oh great." Nyx complains and they make a run for it as the turrets fired onto them, they ran into the construction dodging the bullets, but thanks to those bullets the site started to fall off the wall, Ava grunts as she grips onto the bar along with Nyx and it falls right on top of the walker.
Giving Luna and the armor man time to escape. The construction falls on top of the walker, pinning it down and they both fell onto the ground, the two stops and looks at the glaives as they pulled themselves back up and onto their hands and knees. Ava pulls herself back to her feet and pants, but then the turrets fired at them again. She then pulls Nyx to his feet and they ran, catching up with the two, "The hell did you do to piss these things off?" Nyx questions as they were in the building. "It's not me they're after. It's the ring." Luna answers him and Ava looks at the stairs, "Shut up and climb!" she shouts and they ran up the stairs.
Then right into another room, "What's so special about this ring? Don't tell me the future's riding on it?" Nyx questions her, then they all take cover behind the shelve, "He who wears the ring communes the Lucii and commands great power." Luna answers him. "What king of power?" Nyx asks and Ava sighs. "Forbidden power, sealed thousands of years ago within the ring." she answers and Nyx looks over at her, "The old wall. I thought that was a bedtime story." he states and Ava shook her head. "It is no story, Nyx." Ava tells him, then they look to the window, hearing the machines outside, looking for them. "I can assure you it is not. But the Lucii grant their power only to those they deem worthy." Luna states. "And to those they see unfit to wield power of the ring, they burn the life right out of them." Ava adds in as well. Nyx nods and looks back out the window. "So that guy who tired it on back there, I guess he wasn't deemed worthy." Nyx jokes as Ava just hung her head in shame.
She then raise her head back at him, "That was Ravis Nox Fleuret." Ava answers and Nyx looks at her in surprise, "My brother." Luna clarifies and Nyx looks away from them, "These 12 years have charged Ravis. He is bound by the past, and lost is lost in his lust for power." Luna states then the window was broken as Deamon bugs were now inside, they look at right at them as the armor man stood. "How they hell did the find us?" Nyx questions as the bugs were shrieking, the armor man protects Luna. Ava growls and pulls out the blade she took back, she then charges at the bug and stabs it right in its belly then threw it to the side. Nyx watches as Ava stops the other bug from attacking her, but then the wiring on it's head short-circuits on its head and it dies, dropping to the ground. Ava looks at Nyx as she was confused, he walks over to the bug and they both knee down and look at the wiring that was implanted on its head.
Realization hits them both and they look at Luna, "Your hair-pin. They're tracking it." he states and they walk back over to the two and kneels down in front of them. "Give it to me." he states, Luna pulls out the pin and he take it, sitting down and looks over it as Ava looks at it from his shoulder, "I had a little sister once. She was killed when the empire came." Nyx starts, Ava looks at him, knowing his past when he once told her, Luna and the armor man looks at him, "I couldn't save her. I was a helpless then as I am now. I couldn't show her the future she wanted." he states, then found the tracker as Ava places her hand on his shoulder. He looks at her as she gave him a comforting smile, he smiles back at her then looks down. "True power is not something that is found by those who seek it. It is something that comes to those who deserve it." Luna tells him, he shot a look at her then looks away. "Your sister wanted you to see a future as well." she states and Nyx looks at her as the armor man looks at her as well.
Luna looks down, "Anyone would wish the same for family they love." Luna states and Ava smiles at her. Then giggles, making the three look at her, "Always have your ways with words, don't you, Luna?" Ava giggles, making Nyx smirk and looks back at Luna, "You don't pull any punches, do you?" he jokes and grips Ava's hand in his, but then a swarm of deamon bugs came in and makes the two stand up and the armor man shield Luna. Ava looks down at the hair-pin and tracker in Nyx's hand and she snatches it away. He looks at her, "Ava!" he calls out as she pulls away, "Hey, here. I'm right here!" she calls to the swarm, waving her arms. Getting their attention. "Come get me!" she calls out and ran for it, "Damn her!" Nyx calls out and followed, "Do you hear me? Repeat, this is Drautos." the captain finally speaks as Nyx's hurries to Ava's side, took a hold of her arm and ran for it. But then they stop as a walker aims it turrets at them.
"Your timing's impeccable, captain." Nyx states and they make a break for it, then slide down behind a shelve and Nyx held Ava in his arms "If the Lucii are real, they sure don't seem to mind their city getting torn apart." Nyx states as Ava pulls her head up, "The Lucii only offer power, but they cannot lift a finger to help the people, it is against the rules." Ava shouts over the firing as they stood up and ran. "You're to rendezvous and regroup. Understood?" Drautos orders them as they continue to dodge, then hides behind a wall and Nyx looks back at the walker as it was aim right at them, "That might not be so easy, captain." Nyx informs him as Ava looks at the deamons and back at the tacker in her hand. "Our wings have been clipped in case you didn't know." he states and they both ran out of the building and step onto the walker, the deamons flew out of the building and right at them.
Ava looks around then jumps onto the opening, trying to pull herself up, but then the deamons flew right at her, making her loose her grips and she shrieks as she fall, "Ava!" Nyx calls out, but she grips back onto the transport ship as the hair-pin drops from her hand and onto the ground. There stood the armor man and Luna as she picks it up and looks at the transport ship, the deamons flew right as her, but she threw the hair-pin right at the ship and the circled above her, making the armor man shield her and the deamons crash into the engines. Making the ship spin out of control. Nyx drops to the ground with the transport ship that crash behind him, then he looks up as Ava as she falls from the air. He held his arms out and catches her. They look at each other. Then at the walker that was falling for them.
Nyx squats down, holding Ava tightly in his arms, as she wraps hers around his neck and they both closed their eyes and the walker smashes to the ground around them. Luna moves out of the armor man's arms and ran to the two glaives. "Ulric, Ava. Are you alright?" Drautos asks them. Nyx opens his eyes and saw that they weren't hurt. Then he moves back as Ava pulls out and flutters her eyes open. "We're not dead, if that's what you mean sir." Nyx answers him, then he press his forehead against Ava's and they both sigh with relief. "Head to section D as soon as you can. I'll have an evacuation team ready." Drautos orders them as Nyx pulls away and stood up with Ava in his arms and she kept her arms wrap around his shoulders, "Don't suppose you can meet us at the gate. I'd kinda like to get the hell out of this city with my girlfriend." he jokes and Ava chuckles at him. He then places her back on her feet and tried to look for a way out as Ava then started to climb the walker, "Imperials hold all exits. There's no way through." Drautos informs him as Ava swung herself over then, held her hand out to Nyx as he jumps up and grabs it. "I'll meet you at section D. cut all radio contact until then. And make sure you get there." Drautos orders as Ava pulls him up and over the top, "It's a date, sir." Nyx jokes again they walk both quickly back to the others.
~8~8~8~
To a round about of a square, Nyx looks out. Seeing it was empty. Ava right behind him, Luna and the armor man. He then turns to the three, "Don't move until I say it's safe, all right?" he tells them, the armor man and Luna nod and as he turns to leave, but Ava grips his hand in both of hers, he turns back and looks at her. Ava bites her lip and looks down. Nyx smiles a little at her then tilts her head up and she looks at him, "It will be fine." he assures her. She hesitated for a moment then nods at him. But he saw the doubt in her eyes, then he inhales as he press his lips to her, she surrenders to him and press her hand to his arm, then became intense as the two look away, Luna smiles as the armor man was fuming at Nyx. Then pulls back and press his forehead against hers. "Trust me." he tells her, she nods at him and he steps out of the shadows, his hand slips through both of hers as he was now in the square.
He states on the sidewalk and looks around, "Ulric, reporting." he calls out, Ava grips the side of the pillar tightly as she watches for any sign. "I have the princess. She's alive and well." he calls out, then a shot rang out and Nyx grunts as he was hit with a bullet, Ava stiffens in horror as her face reflected her fear. Luna flinches as well and the armor man grips a hold of Luna. Nyx press his hand to his wound and then looks up, seeing Luche alive and aiming a gun at him. Ava looks at him as well and pants loudly as she felt the urge to protect Nyx. Luche fires at him again, hitting Nyx, he grunts in pain then collapse onto the ground as Luche walks down the steps. "No!" Luna calls out as she and Ava ran out to him. "Get out of here!" Nyx orders them as the two stops and the armor man grabs a hold of Luna's arm and Ava stops.
Luche stops at him as Nyx pants in pain, "You got some fight in you, Nyx. I'll give you that." Luche tells him, Nyx spits out some of his blood and glare at Luche. Then he shot a look over at the three, "Run, get out of here!" Nyx orders them. The armor man pulls them back, but Ava struggles in his grasp as Nyx went to attack, but Luche grips his wrist and shoves him back down and Nyx drops his blade. "I can't believe you're still moving." Luche snaps and kick Nyx in the wound making him cry out and grips his wounds, Ava stiffens and ran to him, "With that hollow-point in you." Luche states as Ava crashes onto her knees behind him. "Nyx." she whimpers, gripping his shoulder. "All Crowe could do was scream when one tore her insides apart." he states and Ava glares at him, "You killed Crowe? Why?" she questions him. "Why'd you do it?" Nyx questions as Ava pulled him to her. Luche turns to them. "Because the Kingsglaive is nothing. An old man's battle fodder sent to die in Insomnia's wars." Luche informs him.
Ava growls as she glares at Luche. "While our homes are bound and shackled." he snaps and Ava shook her head. "And you think siding with the enemy will free your people? Free you home?!" she snaps at him. Nyx looks up at him as well, "Niflheim took your home." he chokes as Ava looks at him as he grips her hand in need of comfort. "Took all our homes! Nothing will ever change that." Nyx tells him and Luche scuffs at him. "You never too smart." he states then looks at Ava as she was comforting Nyx, "And another thing, I've always hated you for the one thing I couldn't have." he states and Nyx looks at him, as well as did Ava. "You had this." he said and points his gun at Ava as he kneels down in front of them. "Beautiful she-devil wrapped around your finger, had her at your beckon call." he states and the two look at him and shock, "Every man in the Glaive wanted her and were willing to kill you to get her, but we all knew that she would slaughter all of us from trying to lay a hand on you." he states then stood up.
Luche walks away and Nyx misses his foot by a second, "You could have had a new future with the Empire." Luche states and Ava shook her head, making her tears fall. "Niflheim doesn't promise a future!" Ava calls out, Luche stops and looks at her. "They don't care about the people they take, they only care about power and will eliminate anyone that gets in their way or whoever becomes useless to them." she snaps, then turns Nyx over and land his onto her lap and she press her hand to his as it was on his wound then she looks at him with tears streaming down her face, "You're just a pawn to them! Tu stultus, stultus homo!" she snaps at him in her tongue. Luche laughs at her then walks over to Luna and the armor man, Luna grips the ring in her hand and they both make a run for it. Luche follows them.
Ava turns her attention back onto Nyx as she looks at his wound. "Ava." Nyx states and she shush him. "Don't talk." she states then sniffles and presses both hands to his wound, applying pressure. "You idiot. Stupid, Moran, braindead smartass. Why do you have to be the hero?" she questions as more tears stream down her face. She looks at her, then raise his hand up and cups her cheek, making her lean in it, "Someone has to." he answers and she glares at him and grips his hand. "Once this is over. When we're out of the city and safe from Niflheim, I'll chew out your ass for being a goddamn hero." she said in a weak growl. He chuckles at her, "I'll hold you to that." he states and she turns her attention back to the wounds.
Luna and the armor man ran up to the balcony above and then to the lock door, they both tug on it, but it was lock shut. Luche runs out and corners the two, they both look at him and he steps to them. "There's nowhere to run, princess." he tells her, the armor man glares at him and stood in front of Luna. "The ring." he orders them. The armor man went to strike, but Luna places her hand on his shoulder. He looks at her and stand down. She steps out and Luche takes the ring from her. He aims his gun at then and looks down at the ring.
Ava rips up some of her coat and binds Nyx's wound, but then she looks over at the approaching care and out steps the captain, but the scent that was rationing off him tells her that he can't be trusted anymore.
Luche then steps away from the two and places the ring in the palm of his hand, then looks at Luna. "So many dead over so simple a thing." he states and the armor man shook his head. "That ring is no simple thing." he states and Luche looks at him "But why? For what?" Luche questions him. "Power." Luna answers him and she scoffs at her. "Untold power, beyond the control of someone like you." Luna answers him, he looks at her and back at the ring, "Power…" he states as he was intrigue.
Drautos kneels down next to Nyx as Ava glares at him, holding Nyx close to her. Then another came into the square and they both look over at Libertis was in the car and looks at Drautos as he was standing up and steps away from Nyx and Ava. Then they heard a cry in pain as Luche was now on fire, then he flips over the rail, but Luna catches him and he slips through her hand and falls to the ground. She looks in her hand at the ring she slip off his finger and the two ran back down to the other.
Libertis slams on the gas and charges forward three. Ava pulls Nyx into her arms as Libertis turns to Drautos, slams into him, the man slowly slips from the hood and then Libertis slams him against the wall. Ava pulls away from Nyx and they both look over at the car as it was then flip over and crash onto the higher ground and there stood Drautos, but as General Glauca. "You." Ava growls as she pulls Nyx's off her lap. "Captain." Nyx calls out at Libertis crawls out of the car. Luna and the armor man run to them and kneel behind Nyx. Ava stood up and glares at him, "You killed Regis, my father, Luna's mother and you sent Crowe to her death." Ava growls, Nyx tries to grab her ankle to stop her, but she slips right through his fingers. "I did was I was told to do." he informs her.
She glares and charges at him, "That's no excuse." she snaps and swung at him, but he blocks all of her attack and knocks her blade right at of her hand, then grips a hold of her neck, making her gasp in surprise. Nyx stiffens in fear and tries to crawl to her, but Luna held him back. Ava gags as she was lifted off the ground, "Don't interfere with my mission, glaive. You are nothing with out the king's power." she reminds her. She growls and spits in his face, "Burn in the seven hells traitor." His reaction was read-less as he then threw Ava to the side and she crashes into the wall, then he kicks up her blade right into his hand then flung it right at her, everything slowed down as she gasp falling on her knees "AVA!" Nyx and Libertis call out to her. She looks down at her chest as the blade embedded into her chest, she gasp then looks at Glauca then falls onto her side and laid there in the rumble, conscious still, but wounded with her father's ring next to her. Glauca then turns to the two as Nyx glares at the general. "Nyx!" Libertis calls out to him, Glauca walks to them, Ava pulls the blade out of her chest and then forces herself onto her elbows with her father's ring in hand "It's over. The deamons are unleashed. Lucis has fallen." Glauca tells them. "Surrender the ring." he orders them, but then a glow catches then attention.
They all look over and saw Ava push herself up, her body covered in light blue flames as she held the glowing ring in her hand. Nyx was in awe at what was happening to Ava, then Glauca that something wasn't right with her as she held the ring. "No more… running away." she mutters then looks down at the ring. Glauca went to charge at her, but she slips the ring onto her middle finger and time freezes all together and the lights went off.
~8~8~8~
Ava stood up and walks pass Glauca as she looks up at the Kings and Queens from her bloodline. "Aw… here's a face we thought to have never seen again." queen Mysta states with a spear as her weapon. "Ava, the daughter of King Magus. Finally graces up with her presence." king Rurfas states with a rapier as his weapon and bows to her. "You jest, you want something don't you?" Ava questions them. The two chuckled to themselves, "This one has grown smarter over the years, clever. No longer the scared little girl we once spoke to." Talain said with bow and arrows strap to their back. "Enough!" a stronger voice booms out, making the others look over. "The girl has come to us to take you her role as knight, and we the past kings and queens of Talasin will grant her just that." the previous king of Talasin snaps at them, her eyes widen in wonder at it was her father.
He looks down at her and smiles, "My daughter, kneel." he states as he was in front of her and she did so, he pulls out his sword and gently taps it on her shoulder. "Do you swear to protect the Chosen and the Oracle?" he asks her, "I swear." she answers him, "Do you swear to save guard the bloodline of the Talasin royalty and the people of Talasin?" he asks her again and she raise her head up. "I swear." she answers him, "Do you swear… to live to the fullest and love those closest to you and to never betray them?" he asks her once more, she smiles and nods at him. "I swear." she answers and the sword was removed from her shoulder, "Then raise." he states and she did so, "Ava of Talasin, the crown princess of the Talasin throne, my kin and only daughter. We, the kings and queens of Talasin will watch over you, always." he tells her and her hands went through his ghostly hands.
Ava smiles and looks at him, "It was really great to see you, but… I wish we had more time." Ava cries and he looks at her, "There's so many things I want to tell you, so many thing I want to ask." she starts, but he held his hand up and shook his head. "I wish for the same, but we do not have the time for such things. But always know, I am always with you." he tells her and she looks at him. Then another figure walks up to them and stands close to her father. "Mama…" she mutters and the woman smiles at her. "I miss you, the both of you and I'm sorry I couldn't protect either of you." she whimpers as tears stream down her face. But the woman stood in front of her and stood in front of Ava. "You've carried the burden of our deaths as weights on your shoulders. Please my daughter. Let the past go and look forward towards the future." she tells her.
Ava looks at her and nods her head, "Live and love, my child and remember. We always will love you." she tells her and steps back to her husband and they both started to fade away, "I love you both and thank you." Ava states as she smiles at them, "And we love you as well, Ava. We are so proud of you." her mother calls out to her and they were gone. Ava kneels down and closes her eyes.
~8~8~8~
Time releases the freeze and Glauca strikes at nothing, he looks around and saw that Ava was gone. The other look around as well then the saw her kneeling down as white armor has appeared on her person, similar to the black armor man. She then stood up and held the Talasin's knight sword in her hands. Glauca turns to her, looking at Ava then laughs to himself. "Ava?" Nyx calls out, she looks at him, raise her helmet up, smiles and winks at him. Then lowers her helmet and looks at Glauca. "Of course now it all makes sense." he states and looks at her "Ava Artette Cornell Dwyvaer. Daughter of King Magus Dwyvaer and Queen Maya Artette Cornell Dwyvaer and younger sister to Prince Incurs Damouis Cornell Dwyvear." he said her entire family's names.
Her reactions was nothing as she stabs her sword into the ground, "I see that you're all talk, but you have little to show for it." she said in a calm tone, he scoffs at her, but as soon as he blinks his eyes she was gone, he looks around. "You're fast, but not as fast as me." Ava said from behind him. He went to turn but with a strike of her fist, he went flying into the air, over Libertis and smacks against the ground and was out cold. Ava smirks then makes her way over to Nyx, she kneel down took of her helmet and places it on the side. Nyx was in awe as she was more radiant as before, but the stings of his wounds snaps his out of his trance. "Hold still." Ava tells him then pulls her hand to her forehead and with a down swift of her finger, a symbol appears hoovering above her forehead. "Sanare quod uulneratum esse iniuriam." she chants and places her hand on his wounds and they started to heal.
Nyx felt the pain fade away as the wound closes up with the warmth radiating off her hand. She then pulls away and held the two bullets the Luche had fired at him. "There, you should be fine now." she tells him and then Luna helps Nyx to his feet and he stood just fine on his own. "Thanks." he states and she smiles at him, holding her helmet under her arm, "Looks like I owe you one." he states, she shrugs at him with her smile, "I'll put it on your tab." she jokes and he shot a 'really' look at her. Libertis then walks over to them and the two look at him. "Nyx, Ava… I'm sorry." he said and hung his head shame. "It's okay, Libertis. I honestly can't blame your making the choice like you did. I understand and forgive you." Ava tells him he looks at her and nods his head at her. "Thank you, even though I don't deserve it." he states and Ava smiles at him.
"You save me and Nyx. We owe you now." she states and they turn to Glauca as he was till out, "For a change." he states and she smirks to herself. The looks back at him, "I have a favor to ask of you, Nyx, Libertis." she states and they both look at her, "Libertis, I'd like you to meet Princess Lunafreya Nox Fleuret of Tenebrae and the prince's beloved bride-to-be." Ava introduce the two, Luna bows to them a little. "She has a destiny that she so stubbornly has to fulfill, I ask you both. See her safely out of Insomnia." Ava states as the armor man steps next to Ava. Luna looks down at the ring in her hands. Then Ava curls them up and Luna looks at her. "Be strong Luna. Nyx and Libertis will take care of you from now on." Ava tells her steps away from them. "What about you?" Luna asks her in worry. "Ava." Nyx starts as he grip her arm, stopping her, "What the hell are you doing?" Libertis questions her. She smiles then turns and surprise Nyx by pressing her lips to his. He was shock, of course, then he gave in and grips her elbows.
But then Ava pulls away and press her forehead against his, looking him in his eyes. "Please Nyx." she states and smiles at him. "Let someone else be the hero, for a change." she tells him, he looks at her, wanting to fight her on the subject, but then sighs and leans his forehead against hers. "Fine. Just come back to me, all right?" he tells her and she nods at him, "Always." she answers and pulls away from him, "Oh, one more thing." she states and pulls out Nyx's blade she retrieved of the glaives she killed.
Then tosses it to Libertis, "Here, you might need this." she states and he catches it, "I will see the ring to Notics. The future will be safe, I swear it." Luna promises her and Ava smiles at her, "I believe you." he states then the armor man looks back and saw Glauca came to and grips his sword. Ava looks over and back at them, "See you guys soon." she tells them, they nod at her and she places her helmet on her head, walks back to her sword and pulls it right out of the ground, "Nyx, if I don't make it out of this." she calls out, "You'll make it." he assures her, "If I don't, I just want you to know… I'm glad I got to fall in love with you." she states as her face was turning red under her helmet. "I'll see you after the sun raises." he states and they both pulled Luna to the car.
Glauca charges right at them, but Ava jumps right at him, knocking him down and then swung at him, he blocks her attack, but the man comes up behind him and swung at him, cutting through his arm. Glauca growls in pain and turns to him, but the man jumps out of the way. Glauca turns back to Ava as she socks him right in the face and sent him flying back. The three climb into the car. Nyx sat in the back then looks out at Ava as she battle Glauca. "Buckle up, princess. You too Nyx." Libertis tells him. "My life is in your hands." Luna tells them and looks out as the two battling Glauca. Then Libertis drove off, Glauca tries to follows them, but the two appeared in front of him and blocks his path yet again. He strikes at them, but the block his every attack. "So, the power of the Talasin royalty returns back to this world, don't it?" Glauca questions her, she growls at him, "It never left." she snaps, swing him away, armor man swung his arm out and knocks Glauca back onto the ground.
He laid there and groan. The two stood side by side then look up at the deamon, "Take care of the deamon, I got Glauca." Ava orders and the man looks at her in shock. "No, we stronger together." he protested, she then grips his armor and jerks him close to her, "Incurs, frater meus. Novimus quod perdam civitatem Deamon ni prohiberet." she tells him and he looks at her in surprise. "Et cognovi quod sit mecum?" he asks her and she nods. "Nunc vadam, Deus contra daemonium, ut in generali. i debere ad illum occidere pater." she said and pushes him away.
He nods at her and took off, Incurs then whistles and out came the black dragon, he jumps high up and lands on the back and few off to the deamon. Ava turns to Glauca as he pulls himself up. "It doesn't matter now, you're out of time." he tells her then strikes, but she blocks it and smirks. "For you, I think I can make the time." she states with a wink and shoves him away and charges.
~8~8~8~
Incurs flies out on the dragon as the deamon opens it shoulder and shout out flares, "Oh no you don't." he states and flew right at him.
Libertis drives through the tunnel and came out seeing the flares shoot out and destroy buildings, Nyx looks out the back window and back at where the flares hit. "Ava." he whispers.
Ava blocks more of Glauca's attacks, then shoves him back and vanishes from the square as the flares smack down and destroyed the area.
