Chapter 19
Fire set down gently in a grove before it got to black to do so. The encroaching clouds obscured the moon making it near pitch black.
Rath had checked over his companions during the flight with what light he had. Thatz was under a simple sleep spell with a few bruises and scrapes while Rune was just exhausted. It was far too late to leave them alone long enough just to get firewood. So he carefully laid the other knights on the cool ground as Fire curled up on his side like he would around a clutch of eggs. In the hollow he spread their bedding and then the others. Now that it appeared that they were free the fire knight was taking no further chances with his treasured ones' health. Slipping between them like silk Fire and himself produced more then enough heat to keep his little dragons warm.
His? He pondered looking out into the surrounding darkness. With no intention to sleep he let the thought continue. Well they were HIS teammates and HIS fellow dragon knights, but it wasn't the same 'his'. It was more of an ownership thing. And the one thing he admired above all else about the dragons and elves was that no one owned any other person. Demons and humans like them owned people.
From with in his pit of self-loathing Rath almost missed a tiny part of his brain that said he was wrong. This made him pause. How could he be wrong? This thought circled until morning.
~~ At Dawn ~~
Thatz awoke with a start. Looking around he nearly panicked. Where was he what happened to the ash-pitching henchman? Then noticing Rune asleep beside him and a large red tail curled over one of his legs, the earth knight relaxed.
He may not remember exactly what happened, but at least everything appeared safe enough now. A light footfall drew the ex-thief's attention over to Rath as he came into the small clearing with a bundle of wood in one arm and a huge rabbit in the other.
Rath glanced over with his usual smile and said, "Finally awake huh? I didn't think you would stir until I got cooking."
The red head nearly turned a green as his eyes at the thought, "No Rath let me do it," and Rath's bemused look he added, "I haven't cooked in days. I don't want to get out of practice," the other knight nodded still looking a little crushed so he continued. The last thing he wanted to do was make the poor guy sad, "I'll need you to help of coarse." The smile returned and Thatz smiled back.
The earth knight searched for good roots and some previsions from their packs while Rath skinned the rabbit and started some water over a fire for tea and coffee.
A thick stew was on the menu for breakfast given that Thatz didn't have much strength to nearly teach Rath a more complicated dish. As it started to bubble the red head remember the reason he had been apart from the others before his missing time.
"So when were you going to tell me?" he asked trying not to feel rejected.
"Tell you what?" Rath asked innocently, "Oh, well Crawford wasn't the nice guy I thought he was and you got nabbed. We barely got to you in time and Rune used up what energy he had making the most impressive pillar of water I have ever seen," Rath then went into exited blow-by-blow action of the previous day.
At the end a haunted look entered his ruby eyes, " I thought we had lost you for a while there." As tears started to form Thatz moved beside him and took Rath into his arms. Tears did not fall but dry sobs still racked the slender frame.
Thatz held him silently being a rock for the other to cling to. After a few minutes as the sobs lessened the earth knight allowed himself to react to the other's pain knowing his words would be heard, "You two constantly amaze me how stupid you can be."
Red eyes looked at him confused and green clarified, "Once you knew it was that sick alchemist you should have left. Especially with Rune as weak as he is," Thatz's words became more aggressive then he wanted so he took a breath and continued in a whisper, "The last thing I would want would be for you guys to get killed just for the remote possibility that I was alive. What if the jerk was lying? What would you have done then?" Rath looked down chastised. Thatz though pushed his face up by the chin to look at the beauty of the other as he finished, "If you or Rune had died for me I would make sure I was dead so I could come and kick your ass." He grinned making Rath chuckle.
The Dragon Knight of Earth pulled the other close again and Rath went stiff. Thatz relished the closeness and the smell of his dark haired interest. After a few moments the fire knight relaxed and Thatz saw his opportunity, "I could never imagine not having you around you know?" he whispered. He placed a kiss on the soft neck within his reach.
Rath jumped slightly at the contact more and more at war with the demon-like feelings that were flooding over him with each breath. A kiss right below his ear nearly had him purring, "Don't," the red eyed knight finally gave, "Please don't Thatz."
A light nip on his earlobe turned his steaming blood to magma and nothing could stop his moan. "Don't what Rath," Thatz asked his voice deep and warm against Rath's ear, "Don't stop? Don't continue? I'm not a psychic you know."
Thankfully Thatz pulled back slightly giving Rath room to collect his thoughts. "I can't," he managed to get out. His mind didn't seem to what to listen to him.
"Can't what Rath? Rune and I love you so much it hurts to be in this limbo you put us," the green eyed youth nearly pleaded, "If you don't love us like this it's fine. If you're already involved say so. We'll stay your friends at your side. Just tell us okay?" Thatz tucked his head under Rath's and seemed to wait.
Rune opened his eyes to see Thatz curled up to Rath hiding his face. Uncertain he looked around. It felt a lot like that dream that Thatz shared with him nearly a week ago. As his blue gaze traveled he gasped. There lay himself with Fire curled protectively around him. Was he dead?
Oh on. He must have used up all of his energy to save Thatz. Rune knew the mind of his red haired love. He would blame himself and with Rath still as confused as he was they do might do something stupid.
Being non-corporeal Rune went to the huddled pair to hug them as best he could. "Don't worry," he said softly, "I may not be with you all the time now, but I'm sure I can stop by now an again to see you."
"I'm sorry," Rath said his voice nearly monotone, "but.." He was interrupted by Fire's whine. The trio looked over to the large red dragon who was nudging Rune's body. "What?" Rath said more to himself pulling back from Thatz as Fire rubbed his head against the still form more urgently, "Something's wrong with Rune."
The two solid knights rush over as the phantom knight sat back on his heels even more confused then before.
"Hey buddy?" Thatz said looking down upon the still face. Not even a twitch. "Hey love you have to wake up," the red head slapped the blond's pale cheeks lightly. Still there was no response.
"Move Thatz, we have to find you what's going on," Rath laid the body out flat and placed his head on the still form's chest.
From the angle Rune couldn't tell if his own chest is rising and falling, but it shouldn't be. Right? Unless something else was going on.
"His breathing is too slow," Thatz said after watching a moment.
"So is his heart," Rath said pulling back.
"But he just wore himself out right?" the ex-thief tried to reason.
"That idiot," Rath hissed and started undoing his shirt.
"What are you doing?" Thatz said blushing. Rune blushing too seeing the sculpted muscles work in swift defined movement.
"All that balancing we did means squat when his own body doesn't have the energy to wake up," he stripped off Rune's top and under shirt, "I need to give him at lest enough to pull him back."
"I can do that?" Thatz said starting on his own shirt when Rath stopped his finders by covering them with his own.
More softly the fire knight said, "You may think it but you don't have enough energy. I'd just end up having to work on both of you."
"There has got to be something I can do," Thatz said nearly desperate.
Rudy eyes gazed deep into emerald, "There is. Rune and I will need to build our strength as quickly as possible and food will help immensely."
Thatz grinned, "You haven't had rabbit stew until you've had MY rabbit stew. And," the street rat pulled the fire knight in for a searing kiss, "be careful losing one of you is unthinkable, both would kill me."
Rath and Rune both blinked as color rose in their cheeks. Shaking his head the dark haired knight lay beside the blond and pulled their bodies together. The elf's blush increased 100 fold when Rath slowly and carefully placed their lips together. His limp body did not respond but he wanted to. Oh how he wanted to.
"Come back," Rath whispered pulling back and cradling the limp form.
"I don't want to leave," Rune said at a loss. What was he to do?
With another long kiss the fire knight looked frustrated, "Come on Rune you can beat this."
"How?" growing frustrated the elf was nearly in tears.
"You can do it you have to try," Rath was shaking the still body nearly yelling, "if not for me then for Thatz."
As their lips sealed once again the water knight had gone from tears of helplessness to tears of rage, "WHAT DO YOU THINK I'M TRYING TO DO. I AM NOT LEAVING EATHER OF YOU!"
Suddenly a flame seemed to ignite in his very core and his skin tingled and burned with a phantom touch. And he was kissing. Mmmm he was kissing Rath. That unmistakable spice and dark fire feeling filled his mouth.
As the dark haired knight pulled back the blond knight remembered his rage and slapped him. Red eyes were startled then smiled. Rune fumed, "How dare you think I would leave. No hell beast or Nadil spawned creature could drive me away."
"It got you back didn't it?" Rath said lightly rubbing his cheek.
"What?" the water knight paused.
"You used up so much of your own energy that you were sort of forced out of your body," the fire knight explained, "You needed to want to come back with your whole being or it wouldn't have worked." The last bit came out as a near whisper.
As the rage subsided exhaustion took its place. Laying back Rune fought off the urge to sleep when a bowl of heavenly smelling stew was waved in front of his nose.
Thatz had been as patient as possible through the pleading and the shaking. He was quite proud that he had only mutilated one metal ladle in a tense grip. But Rune was back and that was defiantly the most important part, as the pair sat back on the bedding he passed around warm bowls. Rune got a light kiss to go with his. And a light pat on the head was as far as he was certain he could congratulate Rath.
Rune looked sadly at his breakfast, "I'm sorry," he said, "I'm just to tired to eat."
"You are going to eat Rune," Rath nearly ordered, "And then we are going through another meditation."
"But I don't have near that much energy," the elf protested, "I can barely hold my eyes open."
"You don't have enough energy to prevent you from being forced out again," Rath countered.
The red head had been eating silently listening to the 'discussion' when something accrued to him. "What about that other cure?" Thatz said cutting off Rune. Once he saw that he had their attention he continued, "You said it was faster right?"
"No," Rath said simply.
"Well it can't be slower man. This way Rune can get some rest sooner," Thatz reasoned. When Rath didn't immediately object again he forged ahead, "We can finally get this thing off our back for good. I don't know about you, but I don't want to run into that creepy duo again in this condition."
Rune and Rath were a study in opposites. One red as a tomato the other white as a ghost.
"You don't know what your asking," the fire knight's voice was a strained whisper as he put aside his bowl to drop his face in his hands.
"Yes we do." Rune said reaching out with a free hand to squeeze his shoulder reassuringly.
"No," Rath continued to refuse, "If we do it. I could loose control. I nearly lost it helping you."
Thatz felt a little out of the loop but sat closer to Rath in silent support.
Rune's smile was golden and soft, "That is the point. To lose yourself in love."
"But it wouldn't be love," Rath sounded depressed and disgusted, "Part of me feels like I should own you. Lock you away so only I could see you. Part of me wants to run," his voice trailed off.
"Why?" the water knight asked softly. At the silence the slim hand on Rath's shoulder slipped down tilting his chin up. As ruby met sapphire he asked again, "Why do you want to run?"
Tears shimmering unspilt as the fire knight whispered brokenly, "I don't want to be a demon."
"Hey," Thatz said finally seeing something he could do, "you think only demons own people?" At Rath's nod Thatz hugged him careful of the soup bowl, "Am I a demon?" he asked. The dark haired knight looked horrified even at the idea so the red head continued, "Well I want to do the same thing," he whispered conspiratorially, "I have wanted the two of you in a tower far from prying eyes for a long time."
"A tower?" the elf questioned.
"Hell yea, where else I can dress you guys up in all sorts of revealing cloths without anyone else starin?" the ex-thief asked, "Or you can be naked," he laughed at the incredulous expression the other's face along with quite a bit of red.
Rune was twice as red as he was before, but laughed lightly, "I have similar feelings. You both already have my heart and my soul. I belong to you," he pulled himself closer and kissed Rath's nose, "and you," he pulled Thatz close for the same small kiss. Feeling Rath near distress Rune shook his head, "Demons own through selfish desires without care to those it effects. But since I love Thatz, he could lock me in that tower if it made him happy because I want to see him happy."
"Yea," Thatz nodded, "I've got myself one hunky elf, but he owns one dashing thief."
"And modest too," Rath finally smiled.
"Well no one it truly perfect," Thatz shrugged, "so is the cure what I think it is or are we completely off topic?" The red head wiggled his eyebrows then leaned forward rubbing his cheek to the dark haired other and nipping the temping lobe lightly. In a deep whisper he added, "I don't know about you but I could use this 'cure' for the rest of my life." He felt Rath shiver as the earth knight pulled back to engage Rune in a hungry kiss.
Hearing a moan from the uninvolved party the two pulled apart and Rune's eyes were darkening as he spoke, "We are offering you a life with us if you will have us."
Rath smiled sadly, "If I grab this chance, I'm not going to let go."
In unison Rune and Thatz came to each of his sides and left a trail of kissed from cheek to ear and said, "We don't want you to."
