Bloody bandages litter the floor. It had now been two weeks since the expedition into the Residential Area, it had now been two weeks since their party had been all but annihilated, and two weeks since Elsword had been almost killed. In all that time Elsword hadn't opened his eyes once.
There are bags under Raven's eyes as he looks down at Rune Slayer lying on the white sheets of his bed. Elsword's condition hasn't improved much, Raven had hardly left his side the whole time.
Reckless Fist took a sit next to the sleeping Elsword, and gazed at his peaceful face. He hung his head now looking at his folded hands his eyes glazed over as he drifted into thought. What if Elsword doesn't wake up? What if he dies because of his injuries, or what if the dark knight traces us down and killed us in the dead of night!? Raven sighed he was getting ahead of himself.
" Killed in the dead of night how lame would that be" he muttered.
Raven felt warm tears start to well up in his eyes, he tried blinking them away but it didn't work. The salty tears rolled down his cheeks and splashed on to Elsword's face. Raven reached down and softly wiped them way, than he slowly bent down and gently placed a kiss on Elsword's dry lips. Reckless Fist straightened up and silently walked out of the room.

The golden sun slowly set into the velder skyline, painting the stone kingdom orange. Raven made his way thru the deserted streets of the Road of Peace.
He looked around. It was quiet really quiet something wasn't right. Raven kept his guard up as he continued to walk. He could feel the blood pounding in his heart and ears. The burning pain from his left arm increased with every step he took.
Raven hears footsteps ahead, he stopped walking now looking into the long shadows as the Black Knight strolled out of the darkness. Raven stared at him for a while

"It's been a long time, Alex " he said coldly
" Hee hee, indeed it has. You wouldn't stay dead last time I tried to kill you" Alex said in a raspy voice.
" I guess death just doesn't like me " reckless fist replayed
" Yeah but I've gotten much stronger, the Dark El's power is limitless. This time I will kill you for sure" Alex said pointing his sword at raven.
He said nothing. He knew he could beat him this time. for all the knights he'd killed that night, for betraying him, for the death of his fiancée, but all that was in the past, he had to kill Alex for destroying velder again, he had to get revenge for the party he'd killed, raven had to kill Him for hurting Elsword.
raven hurled himself at Alex, blade raised, than he let his blade sore into air high above him, he saw Alex's eyes follow the blade in mid air for a second, than horror fill them as he realized he'd for raven's little trick, but it was too late. Raven's left hand smashed into his chest violently breaking at least five of his ribs. Alex strikes the stone ground hard.
Blood flows from his mouth.
Raven stands above him glaring down.
"You never change, you where always stupid and fell for all my tricks" raven said coldly
Raven raises his foot then brings it crashing down on Alex's head
Again
And again
And again
Blood flows thru the stones of the street.
raven looks down at the smashed in skull of the knight now lifeless.
Reckless fist strangely begins to be filled with some kind of joy. He begins to laugh, just small snickers at first but soon his roars of laughter fill the quiet evening.
Suddenly raven falls to his knees clutching his Nasod arm, clenching his teeth in pain.
Raven hears footsteps behind him. He spins around ready to attack if it's a new enemy, but instead of coming face to face with some demon. Raven meets eyes with elsword's.
Ravens eyes fill with tears of relief and joy at the sight of his love, raven embraces elsword and holds him close. He breaths in his smell, he can hears elsword's heart beating, it was the most beautiful sound in the whole world.
Suddenly raven remembered elsword wounds he looked elsword in the eyes again
"are you okay?"
Rune Slayer slightly smiled.
"Yeah I'm okay now...but Raven did you kill him?" elsword pointed to the mutilated Knight covered in blood.
Raven looked at the ground
"Yes, he had to pay for all he'd done to us, to you" Raven whispered
Elsword grabbed raven and now held him close his breaths shaking
"But what if you'd been killed? what if you'd been killed and you left me alone?" there were tears mixing with Elsword's voice.
Raven was engulfed with guilt, he held Elsword even closer
"I'm so sorry I was being selfish…" Raven said in a hushed voice. he looked at elsword, tears had welled up in his deep crimson eyes, Raven wiped them away
then he gently kissed his forehead.
