If you haven't notice, Darkness and Blood for Blood are sort of in the same time period.

Liz's Pov

I stormed down the hallway until I saw Rhodes about to smoke a cigar, about to enter into a room. I punched him in the face.

Rhodes got up, wiping the blood from the corner of his lip; he pulled out his gun, ready to fire at me.

"What the fuck!!" He yelled, I grabbed the gun from him and kicked him in the stomach, pinning him down to the ground, having my hunting knife at his neck and Rhodes had his at mines.

"Please, like that can fuckin' stop me!" I said.

"Like you would fuckin' do it!!" He yelled, he was right, Rhodes was blood, the only blood relative I have and knew. I got up, helping him up.

"Why did you turn him in? I said the hit was off." I said in a spiteful whisper, "You were fuckin' following me!?"

"No, I wanted to go to a carnival with Selma, on a date." He was blushing a little.

"Bullshit! You and I both know you just love fuckin her, shit she knows too."

"No really, it's not always about fuckin' alright. Maybe I like her a lot more huh? What would you doing making out with the enemy?"

"He's yours not mine and you turned him in like a little bitch. I should fuckin kill you or turn you into Rhoda again!!" I yelled.

"Why didn't you fuckin kill him in the first huh? Like you was supposed to do? Huh? Why make this shit so difficult?"

"It's not that simple."

"Why isn't it that simple? You've killed plenty of people. Why is he different?"

"BECAUSE I LOVE HIM!!!" I yelled, my voice echoed through the room, Rhodes looked shocked and surprised, "It started happening slowly okay. But I can't do it and I don't want him killed."

"Shit, I thought you love Toxen?"

"I do but I'm so confused and lost. Toxen was the first guy I ever loved and I do care about him, "I didn't want to tell him about Toxen beatings and rapes, those are my faults, "But Jack, treats me well and it's so hard not loving him and he makes me happy too. He doesn't deserve to die."

Rhodes smashed his forehead, "You are just fuckin...shit!

"Rhodes, please...I beg you, don't let him die. C'mon, I'm your sister, you would do it if you love me?"

Rhodes stood up, upgrading his gun, "Liz, for one thing I don't love you. All I know is that one day I may need a kidney or blood and I have you."

I punched him in the stomach hard, "C'mon, if that was Selma in there, you would begged me to get her out. You must love her. Right?"

Rhodes sighed, I was getting through, "Give me more of those rounds from before and I'll help. There's a heist tomorrow, around like 7:30 pm. I'll put the guards in the heist, the room should be left unguarded. But you have to get him out then."

"But the boss...Jack..."

"Sing...protect him think damn it."

I hugged him tightly, he patted me on the head.


In the Magic realms

The blue cloaked mage was still waiting for the large blue crystal to find the chosen one. It showed what seem to be Clover but then switches back and forth to someone else.

A female figure opened her eyes to find herself inside a dark place in front of weapons, same ones as before, she heard a voice above her head.

"Dear chosen one, you are quite hard to find."

"Who's there?" The female turned around to see the blue cloaked mage, she backs up and pulls a weapon, the fans and stood in fighting position. The Fans glowed blue.

"Spirited one, are you ready?"

"Spirited one? What's going on?"

"A Darkness back on Earth is growing stronger and stronger every day. You've been chosen to fight it."

"With what spirit? Funny."

"Spirited one, this is no laughing matter. Spirit is a quite powerful element, it is like Hope but hope is a desire, spirit is will. Spirit is despite odds not only to keep going but to live. Those with spirit are motivates Courage, Hope, Light, Faith, Wisdom, and even Love. You shall inspire the others to keep going when others are down."

Suddenly, three shadow giants came up from the ground as the blue cloaked mage disappeared. The female figure looked around, she was in the ocean or at least a snow globe, and there was a city surrounded her, people were crying, running and screaming as the dark giants walked towards her. She was about to run when she saw a little boy just staring up at the creatures about to be slashed into two by one of their swords. She ran over and blocked the giant's sword with her fans (which seem to hold up against the attack but she was pinned down to the ground. The giant's strength was immense as she lowered herself down to one knee. The other two pinned their swords on the fan, pushing her further down.

"Think you can stop us, Spirited One. Your spirit has been slowly draining through the years." One giant said.

"You're a disappointment...to everyone. People think they know you but you find new ways to ruin their lives. You came all this way, only to be a failure."

"And you're the smart but energetic one...hah! You're nothing but a worthless...."

Tears came down the female's eyes.

"...Stupid..."

The swords were lowering to almost her head.

"Bitch!!"

Her mind flashes to everything that everyone has everyone said about her, "Are you a retarded or something? Why can't you do anything right? Stop feeling sorry for yourself you stupid bitch and fight!" It was a male's voice that yelled that, snapping her out of it. His voice kept echoing in her head.

"C'mon now, show them...show everyone that you can do it, show them what you're really made of. C'mon, water girl."

"That's it, fight spirited one, Fight!"

The female glowed blue, as she stood up, the giant's applied more pressure to her, but she was still pressing forward, "Hah! I'll be damned to let a bunch of stupid shadows beat me." She glowed brighter and bright, destroying the giant shadows except one who was running away. She threw on of the fans at him and it cut him in half. The female collapsed on the ground.

"Good job, spirited one."

Clover woke up, hearing a communicator ringing, "Blade, it's for you."


Normal Pov

Liz hung up the communicator as Toxen came into the room.

"My, my, my, look who finally woke up, "Toxen smiled, hooking his arms around her waist but Liz pushed him away.

"Don't fuckin' touch me!" Liz yelled but then she winces in pain as Toxen grabs her wrist and twists it. He pulled her close to him, his mouth was on her left cheek.

"Now, now, Doll face, settled down, "He pulled her in for a kiss but then Liz pushed him away harder, "Oh playing hard to get, "Toxen grabs her around the wrist again and pulls her to him, when she couldn't get away, she just turned her neck away, tears slowly coming down her face, "Are you still mad at me?"

Liz looked at him, "You could spare him."

Toxen rubbed the side of her cheek, but she looked away again, "Doll face, c'mon I was jealous and I'm trying to protect you."

"Protect you?"

"Yes, what you thought Jack loves you? Doll face, he doesn't give a shit about you. He just wanted to get in between those lovely legs of yours."

"That's not truth." Liz shook her head, "What you thought you were losing control of me, because there's another man better than you."

Toxen frowned as he smacks Liz in the face, turning her around to the mirror, "He doesn't give a shit about you. He thought you were someone else...someone innocent, clean, I wonder what he thinks of you now. Do you think he'll care that the girl of his dreams never existed, "Toxen rubs her cheek and turns her around, "Now I knew from the beginning what and who you are, and I'm still here. I love you."

"Love me?" Liz looked down, confused.

"Of course, you just have a little fault that's all, but that's love right, enduring each other's faults right?" When Liz didn't answer Toxen turned her head to face him, "Right?"

Liz nodded, tears running down her face, Toxen pulled her in for another kiss but this time she didn't pull away.

"Good girl, now I'll forgive you, if you forgive me, for getting jealous. Now, let's go watch the boss engulf the asshole." Toxen walked out of the room as Liz turned around, tears in her eyes.
