'WHERE IS SHE!' shouted Pit to Lanner. He had to see Kite. She couldn't be dead, that just couldn't.

'She is in a room near the battlefield inside,' said Lanner. Tears rolled on his cheek. He ran to Sparrow, Hestia's angel. Sparrow was specialized in medicine during a battle.

'Sparrow, Kite is probably dead. Please come,' begged Pit and the angel followed him.

'What's happened?' asked he.

'I don't know, but Lanner said she was in a room near the battlefield.' They flew into the building and started seeking. Pit's heart was in his throat. He was afraid what he would see. Kite was maybe horribly maimed. Pit opened a door and gasped: Kite and Jack lay on the ground in a puddle of blood.

'I found her!' shouted Pit and rushed inside. He kneeled at his trainee. A knife stung in her flank.

'Oh Kite,' sobbed Pit. His heart was torn in pieces when he saw her motionless body. Sparrow kneeled next to Pit.

'Let me check her,' said Sparrow. He leaned his head over her body and listened.

'This is not good. She doesn't breathe.' Pit hung sadly his head down. It was too late. Kite was gone. Sparrow lay a hand on Kite's chest, at the place of her heart. The two angels waited in tension. At first view, Kite's heart seemed to be stopped, but then...

'Pit! Her heart beats! She is hanging on!' shouted Sparrow happy. Pit lay his hand on her chest too. His own heart skipped a beat when he felt Kite's weak beat.

'You are right. She is alive!' Happiness filled Pit's body. Kite wasn't dead. She was alive.

'But I don't know for how long. That knife sticks in her flank,' said Sparrow seriously. Pit intended to remove it, but Sparrow stopped him.

'No, don't. She just stopped bleeding. If you remove it, she will continue bleeding and still die,' warned he. 'She has to go to the Skyworld, now!' Pit carefully lifted Kite and walked quickly away with the angel in his arms. He was shaking and looked at the unconscious angel. She looked peacefully, except for the fact she had a knife in her flank and blood stains. Pit placed a kiss on her forehead.

'It will be fine soon,' appeased Pit, although he was sure she couldn't hear him. He walked outside. Living created angels were nowhere to be seen, only dead ones on the ground. The angels of the pantheon were cheering and yelling. Ara and Tawn ran to Pit.

'Pit we won! It's over!' shouted Ara happy. Tawn had a smile on his face, until she saw Kite.

'Pit, why are you holding the Blackhawk?' asked Tawn.

'She is dead, right?' said Ara. The other angels walked to Pit, but he pushed them away.

'No she's alive. I need a chariot, NOW!' said Pit and Tawn whistled. A Pegasus with a chariot ran toward the angels. Pit stepped on the chariot.

'I wish you good luck,' said Tawn and whistled again. The Pegasus unfolded it's enormous golden wings and took off. They rode upwards, to the clouds of the Skyworld. Pit's heart was in his throat. Kite really needed a doctor and it was still unclear if she would make it. The stark white horse flew though the clouds and reached the heavens. Pit was still holding Kite in his arms. He became even more worried when the time between Kite's heartbeats became longer and longer. They flew past floating islands of Angel Land and stepped up to Palutena's temple. The Pegasus neighed and landed before the stairs of the temple. Pit stepped out and run inside, making a trace of Kite's blood.

'Help, doctor, anybody! Almost dying person here!' shouted Pit, hoping for help. The door went open and miss Halo walked to them. She gasped when she saw Kite.

'She is severely wounded! We have to intervene immediately!' said she and walked quickly to the hospital-room. Pit followed her, still with Kite in his arms. He lay her down on a bed. Some other nurses appeared too.

'What's happened to her?' asked miss Halo.

'I don't know exactly, but it seems she is stabbed with that knife. She doesn't breathe.' Miss Halo felt Kite's heartbeat: extremely slow and weak.

'I doubt if she will survive. That poor little girl lost her consciousness in pain,' said miss Halo and Pit let his head sadly hung down.

'Is that the Blackhawk?' asked another nurse. Pit nodded.

'Yes, Kite Elanie Blackhawk,' said Pit.

'She looks more innocent than I thought,' said the nurse.

'Well, she killed Dyntos' general Woody Pinetimber, but she never wanted too. Euh, let me explain. She is a good angel, but sometimes she is possessed by her own dark side. And she is my girlfriend.'

'Interesting. Because you are her boyfriend, we are going to tell you what we are going to do, yes?' asked miss Halo.

'Ok,' answered Pit.

'First we are going to fix her respiration. Then we are going to anesthetize her, just in case she awakes while we are busy working. Then we are going to remove the knife and stitch up the wound. Then we are going to replenish blood. When that's done we are going to clean her and try to do something against her dark side.'

'It will be a big job, but we will do what we can. But can I ask you to leave the room?' asked another nurse. Pit didn't want to leave, he wanted to stay with Kite.

'No, I will stay with her,' said Pit.

'I can understand, but it's for your own good. You girlfriend looks very pretty, but I think you don't want to see her... eh... internal beauty.'

'Right... you have a point,' said Pit and walked outward the door. He had to do with a bench in the hall. Pit waited with tension. Meanwhile he got also nursing for his own injuries. He had almost forgotten he was bleeding too, because he only paid attention to Kite. Fortunately, it were only some cuts, so it was easy fixable with bandage and band-aids. His thoughts went to Kite. How was she? Went everything alright inside? Would she survive? It took about two hours before miss Halo opened the door.

'Pit, she is awakening. It's more comfortable for her to be with you.' Pit jumped up and walked quickly inside the room.

'Did everything succeed?' asked Pit.

'Yes,' answered miss Halo and Pit stood next to Kite's bed. She was moaning. She slowly opened her eyes and looked unfocused at the angel.

'Pit,' said she softly and smiled.
