we all became horrified at what irina had just said, the god of destruction and death, we didnt have a prayer against a god, a demi-god maybe but not an actual god, even knowing this i would go down fighting, i was not about to turn and run, i drew my sword
"oh please dave" the monster chuckled "you arent honestly planning to try and defeat me are you?" it asked, humour in its voice, my jaw locked and my teeth grinded together
"i plan to try you fucking monster" i yelled furiously, i heard some of the genrals gasped at my laps of language, but to be honst my vocab was the last thing on my mind at this moment in time, i heard sevral other swords being drawn, i even saw irina summon a staff, everyone was going to fight
"ooo so scary the tiny little mitras plan to oppose me" it chuckled darkly "you havent got a prayer" i laughed, i ground my teeth together
"yes they do!" a new voice screamed, a voice everyone knew, we turned to see rush, glowing red with his swords drawn, he ran to our sides
"hmmm so you not dead yet, nevermind i guess im not fully done then" the monster chuckled
"and i wont let you be reborn" rush yelled, glowing more brightly, his red light turned blue as marrions blessing took over his body, the god flinched slightly "as long as i live, you feel my pain" rush yelled darkly
"indeed i do" the monster replied, all humor gone
"then you know what im planning" rush asked darkly, rush increased the blue light and the god flinched away
"yes i do know but do you really think these will allow you to do it?" the monster asked, pointing at us, rushs light dimmed slightly
"they have no say in this matter" rush said, uncertain, i heard someone drop there swords, followed by everyone else
"ahhh they have worked it out already" it chuckled, irina gasped as her staff slipped from her fingers
"i know they have there all extremely smart people" rush said proudly, i still couldnt understand
"well the little blonde boy there is having trouble figuring it out" it chuckled, pointing at me
"maybe its for the better" rush sighed, his light growing brightly, the monster flintched away again "but i know he will understand" rush yelled, before walking towards the god, i was froze to the spot same as everyone else, we couldnt move, they knew what was happening, i didnt, and rush was walking to his death...wait he should be dead already, but he isnt, and the monster is still connected to him, so that means...NOOOO! my eyes widened and my sword was the last to crash to the floor, rush stopped walking
"ahhh hes worked it out" it chuckled darkly, rush turned his head slightly to face us all, eyes locking with mine
"sorry" was all he said before turning back to the god, his two swords raised to his chest, the god shyed away, from the movment
"you havent the guts" it snarled furiously, i heard rush chuckled
"havent i?" rush asked, and before anyone could do anything rush rammed the sword through his chest, they appeared through his back, dripping with his own blood "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed before falling forward, causing the swords to fly through him, leaving 2 holes in him, that were bleeding violently, the god shuddered and began to glow
"NO AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" it screamed before exploding into a puff of red smoke and black dust, the explosion caused a large gust of wind to blow from the god, flinging rushs dying body into another wall behind us, leaving a puddle of blood, i fell to my hands and knees and screamed, irina was crying, and everyone else was shocked at what was seen
"RUUUUUUUUUSH!" irina screamed in agony, silent tears escaped my eyes and fell to the floor, this is the worst day of my life, probably of all our lifes, i stood from the ground, head bowed, i met noones gaze of concern, i just walked to the area in which rush had been thrown, i found him lying on the ground, still bleeding violently and gasping for air, i ran over to him and fell to my knee beside him, his eyes were rolling to the back of his head, but didnt quite make it, he was bleeding from everywhere, mouth, nose, eyes, from everywhere, my tears still fell
"hey" rush gasped
"hey" i replied "why are you so daft?" i asked
"cos i just am" rush chuckled, filled with pain "but nevermind i managed to sort my own problems out" rush sighed
"you shouldnt have yaknow" i sighed
"nevermind and anyway ill be fine" rush chuckled, i looked at him like he was insane
"how can you be fine?" i asked, he chuckled, again full of pain before his eyes rolled to the back of his head, his breathing stopped and my eyes widened he was gone, he continued to bleed, continued to be dead and i continued to cry silently, i closed my eyes trying to calm myself, when my eyes were attacked my a extremely bright green light, i was engulfed
"whats happening?" i asked, terrorfied, i got no answer
"hey dave" someone said happily, i turned to see rush, well a see through rush
"what the-! how?" i asked
"dave im a soul" rush chuckled "and so are you" rush added calmly
"what i died?" i asked, rush laughed
"no you idiot i died" rush laughed
"then why am i a soul?" i asked
"because you got caught by my talismen" he chuckled
"what do you mean by caught?" i asked
"the talismen is currently bringing me to the living world again" rush explained, my eyes widened
"but how?" i asked
"i told you i would be fine, the talismen is a lifesorce, im using it now, therefor bringing mes back to life, it only works once but i dont think im going to fight anymore gods" rush chuckled
"wait so you ok but why am i here?" i asked, i was extremely confussed now
"you here as you activated the lifesource, i needed someone to show me a true emotion in order to return and you did so you get to keep me company" rush explained, laughing at the end, i was still confussed
"right so you died, i showed you a true emotion and your coming back and im here to keep you company? that all?" i asked, rush chuckled and walked over to me, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me to him
"pretty much want to know which emotion it took to activate lifesource?" rush asked, i nodded and he placed his lips to my ear "love" he whispered before gently kissing my lips, one of his hands moving to gently rest on my neck, mine locked around his head, one playing in his hair and the other resting on his cheek, he pulled away "nice to know you love me by the way" rush chuckled and my cheeks heated up
"im glad your happy but..." i stopped and he chuckled
"yeah dave its not one-sided love, i love you in return" rush said happily, my eyes widened and before i could react my eyes closed and i fell into a deep dreamless asleep
my eyes opened slowly, my vision was blurred slightly, but it cleared up quickly and i sat up to realise i was in my room, i stretched before climbing out of bed, what a wierd dream that was, i left my room and headed to the gardens, i gasped as i saw that one of the walls had a huge hole in it, so it wasnt a dream then how is rush, i turned on my heel and head straight to where rush was last time, i opened the door and isghed happily when i saw him in the bed, breathing
"you gonna stay in the doorway and let the cold in" rush said happily, pain in his voice, i closed the door and sat beside him, he tried to sit up but i pushed him back down
"no you need to heal you fool" i chuckled
"but im so bored ive been stuck in this bed for 3 days now" rush whinned, my eyes widened, i had been out for 3 days
"well then dont go and kill yourself idiot" i sighed
"hey now im still here and for your infomation im nearly healed" rush said smugly
"how can you be nearly healed?" i asked
"im still a fast healer and the lifesource is still working" rush chuckled
"oh" was all i said
"you know what i may go back to the academy and train" rush muttered
"but why?" i asked
"well i miss some of my mates there and im bored" rush chuckled, i rolled my eyes "anyway torgal said i may even get a job there" rush added smugly
"WHAT!" i asked
"yeah torgals asking now, as hes still injured ill be doing the practical learning whilst he does the theory" rush explained happily
"oh well good for you then rush" i said happily
"yeah i know right" rush said happily
knock knock
"ooo that might be him come in" rush saiid happily, pain still in his voice, torgal walked into the room looking smug as always when it came to rush
"guess who has a job" torgal said happily
"YES!" rush cheered happily "thanks buddy" rush thanked
"no problem and im sure young, hinnah and hannah will love to see you" torgal said happily, none of those names rang a bell
"really there still there?" rush asked
"yep" torgal said happily, we continued to talk about this til the sun went down, ending another day
