With a deep sigh she relaxed and had a sword in her hand herself.
"You really want to do it like this, little sun? You really could die much easier." she laughed about me but I wasn´t about to give up.
I tensed and watched her cautiously.
"I won´t die at all."
At least I hoped not to die... Connor would kill me a second time for getting killed.
Hopefully Dad would get a judgment against her from the deity council...
I would have to stand against her as long as they would need...
'Please, Dad, hurry up...' I prayed when I rolled away under her first try.
The sword was 2 millimeter from my throat away when I jumped back.
I hated deities by now...
They had so much more practice than I would ever have!
But I wouldn´t give up until my heart stopped beating.
"Your abilities won´t safe you this time, will they? You are weak as every little half blood is against a goddess like me." "You´re wrong. I am as strong as a half blood can be because I fight for a reason you won´t understand ever!", I growled and turned away from her sword.
It was really dangerous!
Hopefully Connor would forgive me for being this stupid.
Carefully I stepped back and tried to catch my breath again.
"Do you really think you could hurt me?" Nyx asked me with icy tone.
"I probably won´t but you won´t kill me." I growled.
She laughed about me and hit my left arm.
I whimpered and stumbled back but I wouldn´t run away.
As fast as possible I tried to sting her swords arm but I was even to slow.
I dropped myself on the ground and rolled away so she wasn´t hitting me this time.
'Hurry up, Dad!'
Why did he take this long?
She kicked my feet away and I lay on my back, starring in her black eyes.
"It ends like this? What a shame! I really thought it would be more fun. But nonetheless you´ll die now. Hope you have said good bye to everyone." she laughed about me and wanted to stab me, but somebody hit her and pushed her away.
"You won´t hurt her anymore!" a angry voice told her and I saw the person I loved so much...
"Connor..." I whispered shocked and came to my feet again.
My sword was gone but I couldn´t care less.
He still was hurt! Was he crazy!?
He should be at my brothers care.
Why did Will let him go?
"You are stupid, Adriana! Why did you leave all alone?" he asked me angryly and I dropped my gaze guilty.
"I am sorry..."
"So I have to kill both of you? Fine by me." Nyx laughed and I tensed.
She wouldn´t hurt Connor again!
He was pale like a dead one would be...
I stepped in front of him and glared at the goddess.
"You are darkness where Dad is light. Light displaces darkness. And I am his little sun so I am light as well. You should leave, Nyx." I told her firmly and felt the warmth my father always sent to me before appearing.
A little smile curled my lips and I laughed freely.
It was his warmth but I felt it inside as well.
This warmth I let come out.
I started to glow like the sun itself.
"No!" she screamed shocked when I lighted up everything around us.
She stumbled away and watched me with shocked gaze.
"You lost your abilities!" she cried out but I laughed.
"The moment Connor came I was complete again and my abilities are under control. I need them to protect who I love." I explained and stepped in front of her.
Connor stayed next to me and pushed me away when Nyx tried to kill me once more.
He was fully in darkness.
"CONNOR!" I screamed scared and run to him.
He fell on the ground and looked even more pale...
"Don´t dare you!" "Should be more careful, my sun." he whispered weakly and I felt tears pouring down my face.
Pure hatred made me look up in her icy eyes.
"You shouldn´t have done that!" I screamed, took my sword and attacked.
I really had no idea what I was doing or how I reacted anymore.
Only the moment somebody gripped me and pulled me aside I begun to wake up again.
Hermes hold me away from Nyx while Dad and Aunt Artemis had her.
"Good job, baby girl." Dad said with soft voice but then his gaze went to Connor and a sad shine came to his eyes.
Nyx laughed when she looked at my boyfriend as well.
"You´ll die. One way or the other, little sun. Maybe I couldn´t kill you but this will kill you. Destroy your heart." she laughed and I tensed.
"Let me go!" I begged Hermes and he sighed deeply.
"Not the smartest thing..." "I don´t care!"
He let go of me and I run to Connor again.
His eyes were nearly shut...
"Con..." I whispered weakly and stroke his cheek.
"You did it." he said smiling and took my hand with such a weak hold...
"I love you... I won´t let you go..." I whimpered and he sighed.
"I knew the moment I pushed you away I would die, Princess. But You have to live. The world needs the most beautiful sun."
His eyes were shut the next moment and I shook my head.
Helplessly I looked to my Dad but he avoided my gaze.
"Zeus sealed his healing abilities." Hermes told me silently.
Despair in his own eyes..
His abilities were sealed?
But mine weren´t...
I needed him so I would be strong enough to save him...
I had to be strong enough.
"Dad..." I whispered asking and he nodded silently.
I looked at my hands and put them on Connors chest.
"Please, Connor, don´t leave me." I begged him when my hands started to glow.
"You won´t be strong enough, Niece." Artemis said with a pitying tone in her voice when I became shaky.
"I will be strong enough or I´ll go with him... I won´t allow him to leave me..." I whispered silently.
Dad and Hermes looked at me and at Connor but none of them would be able to help me.
What else could I do?
"Don´t, Hon´." Dad asked me to stop but how?
I wasn´t able to let him go.
My view was shadowed and the last thing I heart was the scary laugh of Nyx and Dad´s desperate voice calling my name...
So, what do you think... Will she be strong enough to safe him? Will she be strong enough to survive this?
