Wow. I finally got round to updating……. (Speechless)

Chapter 10: The Begining Of The End

I shoved the key into the lock, Turing it franticly. Until I heard the lock click, a wave of relief hit me, I was going to live and be able to save you. As I took my final breath I pushed the door. It swung on its hinges. The water was swept from the red room into a new one. It pushed me onto my stomach.

I looked around; it wasn't a room at all. To me it looked just like one of those coliseum things. Then I saw you, lying in the middle of the arena. You looked lifeless, I was scared, what if you were….

I ran to your side, I rested a hand on your face, its icy cold. You didn't deserve this fate; you were a mess, covered in blood, cuts and scars and your breathing was laboured. I feared for you. I would give anything to have the old you back, beating the life out of me.

I pulled you onto my lap and I just sat there stroking your face. I wanted to look into your beautiful bubblegum pink eyes. I close my eyes; I can't bear to see you like this. The love of my life is slipping from my reach, tears line my eyes, I can't fight them off and they fall onto your face.

You stir a little. I look at your face hoping, praying that you will come round. Your eye lids screw up and lift. I see your eyes, gleaming beautifully in the sunlight. But your emotion is shown through them. You're scared, sad and hurt.

"Sprx?" you whimper, your voice is croaky and raspy. I put a finger to your lips quieting you.

"Don't talk. Your in pain." I say. I pull your face into my chest and you don't resist. I look at your face properly. You seem soothed.

"So you have had your reunion." He was standing at the far end of the coliseum. His throne was carved into the rock making a chair. I glared with anger and hate at him.

"Stay here" I say as I lay you on the floor. You try to resist, but are too weak to really do anything.

I walk up to him. His beady red eyes glare at me, watching my every move.

"Are you made only for hurting others? Do you please in testing me?" I ask, my voice is shaking, I know I can't take you on alone.

I look into the sky. I hope Otto fixes up the robot soon. I really need their help.

"No S.P.R.X.77, you have me wrong. I please not in your strength. But in your pain and suffering." He smiles; I can't stand in and lunge at him. He points his staff at me and I feel a blast hit me in the stomach. I fall back, I fall beside you. I feel you attempt to get up. I instantly push you down again.

"Nova, your in no state to fight." I tell you.

"But you can't do this alone!" you shout back at me. We look into each others eyes. If only I had noticed the Skeleton King powering up his attack. If only I had noticed. But I didn't, not until you flew into the wall behind me.

"No" I whisper.

"Well that was…entertaining." He chuckles.

My heart feels heavy and my eyes droop. Until I hear you shout.

"NOOO" you glow yellow and rise into the air.

"Flame Fist Furry!" you shout. The flames from your hands hit just above where he stands. The rubble above falls and he is secured underneath. You fall to the ground energy less.

I rush to your side. You can hardly breathe.

Only a few chapters left so stay tuned!
