Not much to say, just enjoy the last moment of this story, Q&A below, after you finish.
Epilogue
The following morning Kha'Zix was the first one to wake up, or rather to be awake. In fact, he hasn't slept at all. The spell Noah casted did exactly what it was supposed to do, renewed him, so he hadn't felt the urge to go to sleep and has been watching over Rengar instead. He didn't quite understand what happened the day before, though. He thought he died, but for some reason he was back.
He sat closer to Rengar and touched his face, it wasn't wet anymore, but some of his fur was stuck together on his cheek. Kha'Zix was surprised when he woke up. Noah was lying next to him, barely conscious, and Rengar was trying to kill Lucy. He stood up, what was surprisingly easy considering he had had her rapier stuck in his chest, and stopped him from harming her.
Kha'Zix took his hand away when he felt some movement underneath his palm. He looked at Rengar and smiled warmly, he was awake, "For how long have you been like this?" Rengar asked and smiled when he realised his miraculous revival wasn't just a dream.
"Some time, but every second spent like that is worth, though." he replied and kissed him in the forehead. Rengar wrapped his arms around him and pulled him into a hug, which took Kha'Zix off guard and he fell on him.
Rengar was holding him for a while before he released him, "I'm sorry, I just-" he said, but Kha'Zix promptly silenced him by giving him a kiss.
"I know. And you don't need to apologise for hugging me, despite my looks, I'm a snuggling type." he replied and winked at him. Rengar just chuckled and sat up. He was confused when he realised he didn't have his armour donned, as long as he remembered he fell asleep in it.
"Where is my…?" Rengar asked while checking his arms and chest, he only had his underwear on.
"Oh, well, when we sat down on the bed, you fell asleep in my arms, so I decided to undress you. Sorry if I made you uncomfortable or something." Kha'Zix explained, but Rengar just shrugged it off.
"I'm actually glad, it was dirty and bloody-" he replied, but then he realised he himself was hurt and probably dirtied sheets anyway. Rengar looked around and indeed found some red spots.
"I noticed those injuries, but they had dried before we even came here." Kha'Zix responded and sat beside him again. He laid his head on Rengar's shoulder and sighed relieved, "I seriously thought it was all over. I'm so happy that it wasn't." he added and wrapped his arm. Rengar placed a kiss on his head and hugged him as well. But there were some things he had to tell him.
"Kha'Zix?" Rengar said in order to catch his attention. Kha'Zix took his head away and looked at him, awaiting his question, "You...you told them, right?"
He hesitated for a moment, "Y-Yes...I did…" Kha'Zix replied reluctantly, a little bit of shame in his eyes. He didn't want to break his promise, but it was stronger than him.
Rengar sighed, but smiled afterwards, "I'm actually not mad, you know?" he said. "I mean, I was worried, terrified even, but the moment I saw your face, I knew you had to do it, you wouldn't be the same if you didn't." Rengar added and looked at him reassuringly.
Kha'Zix lowered his eyes, but Rengar lifted his head again by lifting his chin, "I...I guess." he replied and forced a faint smile.
But then Rengar smacked him in the head, which made Kha'Zix jump a little, "And that's for making me go through that." he said with somewhat indifferent expression.
"Ouch! That hurt!" Kha'Zix complained while he was rubbing the painful spot. Rengar then chuckled and gently stroke his head.
"But now for real, don't ever do that again, please." he asked quietly. Kha'Zix smiled and nodded obediently.
"I won't, promised." he replied, and something was telling him that this time he really might keep that promise. With that settled, Kha'Zix decided to gently push him on the bed, "I was wondering...is that offer from before still available?" he whispered in his ear. Rengar blinked surprised, but then grinned maliciously.
"Oh, that one?" he asked, "Let's see…" Rengar added and put his hand behind Kha'Zix's waist. Kha'Zix smirked, taking it as a yes. Then, he moved closer to kiss Rengar…but then he swiftly rolled with him on the bed, and now Rengar was on top of Kha'Zix, holding his hands by wrists.
Rengar chuckled and exclaimed, "Not now. Now, my dear, I need a bath." he said and got up, leaving Kha'Zix dumbfounded and slightly embarrassed on their bed.
He quickly got up on his legs and shouted, "I was kidding! I hate you, you hear me!?" he tried to taunt Rengar, but he just waved his hand without bothering to look at him.
"Yeah, yeah, I love you, too." he replied and chuckled audibly. Kha'Zix growled under his breath and lay back on bed.
They've been halfway to the Piltover and Lucy still hadn't said a word. They were in the zeppelin, the earliest they could get on. Noah was savoring the fresh air and perfect weather and Lucy was just sitting in front of him while reading a book, or at least pretending to. After a while, Noah snatched it from her hand and looked her straight in the eyes.
She stared back irritated, "I was reading it." Lucy said, but Noah just sighed and placed it on a table.
"You haven't turned a page in five minutes, I didn't even need to use my ability to know that." he said and folded his hand. Lucy tried to avoid his gaze, but eventually she gave up.
"Okay, what do you want?" she asked despite knowing exactly what he wanted to know.
He smiled warmly and exhaled, "I wanted to know what you feel, how you feel. You didn't really achieve what you wanted, he's not dead." he said. Lucy looked out the window in search for answers.
"I don't really know." Lucy replied and shrugged, "But I felt bad, hell, I still do." she added and looked at the ceiling. Noah sighed and placed his hand on hers.
"Look, don't feel bad, at least not that bad. We defeated other Void creature that could potentially go on a rampage somewhere else if we hadn't killed it. And their still together!" Noah said trying to make her feel better, but she just rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, they are. After I literally killed Kha'Zix and almost got killed myself by Rengar twice. Great fucking achievement Noah." Lucy replied frustrated. Noah raised his brow and coughed.
"I don't remember when was the last time you cursed." he said, finally making Lucy force a small grin on her otherwise sad looking face.
"Me neither, but just for today I don't really care." she admitted and stretched a little. Her arms were still in slight pain after that day, but she knew it was nothing compared to Rengar probably felt when he thought Kha'Zix was gone forever. Heck, even what Kha'Zix felt all this time. She had to admit it, when she finally calmed down, she understood that Kha'Zix was redeemed. Perhaps the world didn't dig deep enough to get that knowledge, but who would even attempt to befriend a Void creature, let alone fall in love with one? After all she still questioned Rengar's sanity, but thanks to him she learned a valuable lesson.
Then Lucy raised her head and smiled again, Noah mimicked that smile, "Finally, the Lucy I've known is back." he exclaimed joyfully. She again rolled her eyes and took the book to read, this time for real.
And this is it, the final chapter of Vengeful Soul. I've had real fun writing it despite the fact I had 3-month break due to lack of time and willingness. But this is obviously not the end of the journey! And now let's proceed with Q&A!
Q: What will happen now? What kind of story is on your mind?
A: As I said, I thought of Nasus x Renekton story, but so you know guys, I'm not into incest, so I decided that hey, I'm the author, I can bend reality as much as I want, so if this really comes to reality, I'll just make them distant cousins or completely not related by blood. But just so you know, it is just a thought, I still haven't decided yet, I'm open for suggestion. Though, I have 2 conditions. First, no Rengar or Kha'Zix whatsoever, not only you guys, but I need some break from these two (still love them). And second, I'll choose the most desirable ship. Even if one person asks me pretty nicely about Z x Y, I'll still choos if it's what more people want. So now stop reading and write down a comment (yes, even a guest can leave one, don't be shy), or PM me if you want to remain anonymous, and suggest something (unless you're okay with Nasus x Rene, even if you are, it'll still be great to know).
Q: When will you do it?
A: I'll give myself 2 weeks of break and wait for all the responses. After that, I'll start thinking about the story and setting, so I guess a little after a month.
Q: NO LEMON :(
A: Well, I never promised one xD. But being all serious now, I get that some of you (I just hope not ALL of you) may have been around just for that and a little less for the plot, and all of my previous works had at least one, but being honest, I kinda felt that this kind of story doesn't really need a sex scene. I decided to focus more on romantic aspect and story, less on...you know, kink. But it doesn't mean I want to completely step away from that, no. I will keep on writing that stuff, just not in every single story I write. To that part of audience, I wanted to write a lemon scene in the next story, so you can wait for it instead. Sorry for any inconveniences.
Q: What will be that sequel like?
A: Some things I'll keep secret for now, not to spoil anything, but I was thinking about making Rengar and Kha'Zix break out of their shell. By that, I mean leaving Kumungu Jungle. For good? Who knows. Why? Classified. Who will they meet on their journey? OCs, that's for sure, someone must live in Runeterra and RIOT didn't really give us a lot of canon "nonames", but he will meet many champions on his way as well. That's all for now.
Q: So romances, actions...any more genres?
A: I don't think so. I'll focus on my two favourites.
Q: What will be the genre of the following story?
A: I wanted to make something similar to my previous stories, just a simple love story, I don't think I will put any action in it, maybe one thing if necessary, but time will show. Unless of course you want something else, this it the plan.
So with that, all I can say now is thank you for reading and see you around in around a month!
