Razor Blade Eyes
And the battle
Leave
I'll believe all your lies
Just pretend you love me
Make believe
Close your eyes
I'll do anything for you
The trick
The tree
And eyes
Edge of charm
Hint of magic
Truth to the self
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?

Razor Blade Eyes
Chaotic
You live in a church
Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
And you won't give up the search
For the ghosts in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
And a smile that won't wash away
Can you look out the window
Without your shadow getting in the way
"Phendra, I need a favor." Kaos said as dawn was breaking.
"What?"
"I don't want him in this battle. I need him to stay here."
"What!"
Kaos looked into the hollow eye sockets of the undead one. The skull-face seemed to be confused.
"I want him to be protected. In the confusion of this upcoming battle, Veldre and Fendri might steal him out from under us."
"So...you want him to be locked away?"
"Temporarily. Let the Feather Dragon protect him." Kaos said.
The sleeping fair-boy was sealed into the great tree, into the spirit chrysalis inside. He would be safe, as long as that tree held strong. Kaos and her pack were the first wave upon the Brehul army slowly marching upon the forest. Phendra and the shades were the surprise attack. Three of the strongest and most cunning Shades would stay behind in case the Brehul attacked with a separate force.
The two sides were marching on each other. With Kaos on the front, leading the pack head on with the Brehul, things were bound to get ugly. Their pace picked up, and in minutes, Chrnolt Gaoru and Brehul were upon each other. And the Shades descended not long after as the twilight was fading into shadow.
Kaos, with her claws dripping with blood, followed Veldre and Fendri. As suspected, they were heading for Link. Fortunately, she got there first to warn the Shades. They dispersed to provide an ambush, the specialty of their kind. Unbeknownst to all of them, Link was beginning to wake...
Veldre landed before the waiting Huolf Kaos. He stood ten feet at least in his Chrnolt form, long thin fingers ready to pierce the Gaoru's skin. Fendri landed behind him, silent but eager for fairy-boy's blood.
"Are we playing the champion today Kaos-chi?" Veldre asked, grinning.
"Are you pretending again, Kaos-chi?" Fendri asked, eyes focusing in on the stirring aura from the tree.
"You know me, the Great Pretender." Kaos said, ready to go toe-to-toe in this game of wits.
Link began to stir. He felt groggy. He knew that he was not in danger. In fact, he felt safe. But he also felt a little betrayed. Kaos had drugged him and shut him away. But when he opened his eyes, he seemed to be watching. Kaos was standing before Veldre and Fendri. It seemed to be only her. There was no way she could win against them. But then he heard them speak...
"Why are you protecting him?" Veldre asked, taking one step forwards.
"I don't want him to become the same little play-whore that you made out of me.": Kaos said.
Fendri stopped. She looked confused. She frantically looked from her lord to Kaos.
"You didn't tell her, did you?" Kaos asked.
"What is it Kaos? What did he do to you?" Link asked, though he was the only one who could hear.
"I shall tell her now then." Veldre said.
"Make sure it's the truth." Kaos threatened. Veldre nodded reluctantly.
"A year ago, I captured her. As she said, she became my whore...my plaything. Not all of Kaos's scars are from recent battles. The ones that have faded on her legs and the still visible ones on her back are from me. Your right ankle never really healed right, did it?"
"Stick to the damn story." Kaos hissed.
"Right. One time, when I was 'playing', I got her pregnant. It would have been marvelous, a beautiful union between Brehul and Gaoru..."
"But I killed it."
A slight silence fell before Kaos continued.
"I managed to escape three months later, and I ran to a hidden grove. I prayed for Gaia to kill either me or that...monstrosity that I was carrying. I felt sleep envelope me, and I fell asleep. I woke two days later. There was blood all over the place, and it hurt to move. I sat up and looked around. That abomination was dead, ensnared in thorns and brambles." Kaos paused again.
"You had..." Fendri whispered.
"Yes...I had an abortion. Gaia herself killed it. I feel no remorse, and my only regret was not killing it sooner." Kaos said.
Link felt sick. He raised one hand to his mouth to make sure he wasn't going to vomit. He wished that he could have shut that out. To think that Kaos would have survived that, it was almost unbearable. Deep inside, he had a greater respect for her...
"So you don't want something like that happening to your little fairy-boy, do you Kaos-chi?" Fendri asked.
"He's not mine." Kaos said.
"You'd give anything to keep him from hurting anymore, wouldn't you Kaos-chi?" Veldre asked.
"Yes. I'd even go back to being your whore to keep him safe." Kaos hissed.
"What makes him so special to you?"
"He is special to Gaia." Kaos said darkly.
"Then maybe I'll take you up on your offer." Veldre took another step forwards.
"You're lying. You just want to get past me and into him again."
Kaos instantly shifted Chrnolt and knocked over the unsuspecting Brehul Lord. The Shades appeared and aided her attack. Veldre sank his stabbing claws into Kaos's back. Her fresh blood poured from her wounds. Kaos slashed at him, claws throwing pieces of flesh aside.
"Even if you kill me, I will still haunt him." Veldre said.
"I can purge that too."
"He still fears, what I did and what I still could do."
Kaos sank her teeth into the wing of the Brehul Lord, snapping a bone or more. Veldre kicked her off, sending her back into the trunk of the tree before clumsily rising into the air and fleeing, with Fendri behind him. Kaos shifted back, making her wounds bleed more. There was a flash of light and soon Link was kneeling next to her, one hand on her shoulder.
"You heard, didn't you?" Kaos asked, not even looking at him.
"Yes." Link said, almost guiltily.
"Then you know what I did."
Kaos rose, blood spurting from her fresh wounds. Link tried to help support her, but she struck him back, sending him sprawling onto his back.
"Stay away from me!" Kaos shouted.
Link stood up, feeling kind of hurt. Kaos staggered past him, still refusing to look at him. Link reached for her, but drew his hand back quickly.
"Are you crying?" Link asked.
Kaos stopped. There was silence as her blood gathered in pools between blades of grass. Link froze, listening. There was a faint sound of his breathing between the blood rain.
"How can you even stand to look at me?" Kaos hissed.
Link didn't know how to answer.
"This is the real me, wicked, full of hate." Kaos said.
"Does remembering hurt that much?" Link asked innocently.
"Yes. It reminds me how ugly I am and always will be." Kaos said darkly.
She staggered. Link rushed over and caught her, careful to not touch her wounds. Her blood seeped into his clothes.
"How can you bear to be near me? You know what I was, what I did, what I do now." Kaos muttered.
"All over one memory?"
"Yes! Over that one memory! Killing that thing inside me isn't what is doing this though..."
"Is it..."
"Yes...what he did to me was ten times worse than what he did to you."
Kaos forcefully pushed away from Link. Her nails, like claws, tore through his tunic and white undershirt...accidentally scratching his chest and letting blood escape. But the blood that was soaking his clothes was Kaos's blood. Kaos shifted Lupe and ran off, leaving a shocked and slightly bewildered Link behind.
He sank to his knees, wide eyes looking at her blood on his hands. One tear fell from his eyes, though he knew not why. He felt something trickle down his chest. He saw the scratches that Kaos had left him. He sighed. This was proof that he was still mortal, that there were probably some wounds that a hero cannot heal. He reluctantly stood up and bid the Shades farewell. He left, heading back home. One hand was held over his own injury, his own red blood oozing through his fingers.
But he would never make it home. Upon getting to the edge of Kokiri Forest, his knees gave out. He crumpled to the ground, one hand still trying to cover his injury. He tried to push himself up, but one of his legs didn't seem to want to hold his weight. Link crumpled to one knee, the other leg refusing to cooperate.
"Lucky me, look who I find crippled and defenseless."
Fendri stepped out of the shadow before Link, who was indeed helpless.
"Oh damn." Link muttered.
Fendri's senses honed in on the fresh blood. She walked up to Link and knelt before him. She pulled several long deep-red ribbons from her hair. She tied one over Link's eyes, and one around his wrists. His legs were bound with the ribbon, and one became a silk leash. Link was sitting on his feet, with Fendri ghosting around him in a playful sadistic fashion.
"Are you afraid?" Fendri asked.
"No, just annoyed."
Fendri grabbed a handful of his blonde bangs, jerking his head to the side while she started to lick his scratches. Link's entire body shivered. Fendri grinned. She moved, wrapping one arm across his chest and her other hand still holding his hair. She nibbled on his ear and felt him tremble beneath her fingers. Her tongue traced its way over his skin, be it his neck, his ear or his cheek. Link shuddered and tried to pull away, but Fendri held him firm.
"Kaos-chi isn't here to save you now. Don't worry, she'll be gone for a while. Memories put her out of order for a few days." Fendri whispered.
Link struggled. Fendri let go of him briefly before grabbing his head and slamming it onto the ground. A bit of blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth. Fendri pulled the blindfold ribbon off, so Link could see the madness in her eyes. She pulled a little vial of blue liquid from a hidden pocket of her dress. She popped the cork and forced the liquid down his throat. He coughed, trying to expel it from his body, but he could already feel it taking effect. His eyes blurred before rolling up in his sockets and he passed out.
Fendri grinned and elongated her fangs.
