~Chapter 5: Fragments of Memories~

As the smoke clears away, both Elsword and Aisha were on the ground, with injuries that no normal human can survive. Elsword's eyes began to open and he grabbed his blade, helping him standing up. Aisha was on the ground with blood at the corner of her mouth. Elsword's eyes narrowed as he stood up straight and walked towards her while the bell rang, signifying his victory.

"Aisha..."

His vision began to waver as he walked towards her, causing him to trip and fall on Aisha. Tired and injured, Elsword hadn't realized the position they were in when he had tripped. He forced his body to listen to him and got up once again, carrying Aisha in his arms. He grabbed their weapons and placed them on his back.

Eve, Chung, and Rena jumped down from their seats, going to the forest region to bring Elsword and Aisha back. As they arrived to the forest region, Elsword was halfway out of the region. Chung walked towards Elsword, trying to let Elsword let go of Aisha, so he can carry her while the girls help Elsword walk, however, Elsword refused to let her go. He even hugged her body so Chung won't take away Aisha.

Chung sighed deeply as he grabbed only Elsword and Aisha's weapons, while Eve was behind them, muttering some words. A flash of light, and on her back grew wings, or to be more specific, electron wings.

"Energetic Heart!"

Within a flash, Eve grabbed the weapons from Chung's hands and put it behind her back. Rena and Chung realized what her intention was, and they grabbed Elsword, making him hug Aisha even tighter. Eve wrapped her arms around Chung and Rena while they hold Elsword with her drones helping. She jumped and soon, they were taking flight. Eve knew she couldn't hold "Energetic Heart" for very long, but she had enough time for the flight to reach the training area. While Eve was concentrating on their flight, Rena couldn't help, but begin to pair up two certain people.

'Elsword and Aisha... They must be a couple! Or at least, they must be attracted to each other at some point. Unlike Chung and Eve, they were destined to be together despite being enemies, Elsword and Aisha are attracted to each other, almost like opposites. Well, they are perfect to be together, not as perfect as Cheve, but still, they're perfect in a way... Oh! That's right! I must give them a couple name~ Hmm... Chung and Eve is Cheve... then Elsword and Aisha will be... Elsa..? Eh.. Elsa is a good name, but then.. It's reminding me of something, but i don't know what...'

Rena stayed in her deep thinking, Chung stayed silent with a red face. Eve is pressing on his weak point, his sensitive part or his ticklish side by hugging him in order to fly. He had to restrict himself from laughing and move all over the place, making the flight longer and a chance for "Energetic Heart" to disappear and the huge possibility of crashing.

'If this was back when her memories were still intact, Eve would have done this to tease me during flight. She would even disable "Energetic Heart" to scare me.. SInce my tendency to worry a bit too much is like permanent, and it's technically my weakness. Eve would use it to her advantage.. From playing around to even serious situations. Eve... I wonder if she'll still do that if her memories were still here...'

Chung bit his lip until he tasted blood. Before he had realized it, they had already arrived at their destination. Eve practically threw them before landing on the ground safely. Chung and Rena quickly snapped out of their deep thoughts before quickly flipping in the air and land on the ground safely just like Eve. Elsword had lost his consciousness, and nobody knew. Aisha's eyes slowly opened as she realized that Elsword's going to crash, she quickly used the last remaining of her strength and teleported them, evading the crash.

'I'm glad that Elsword's safe.. I hope he'll be okay later on...'

Aisha began to close her eyes once again, and fall into deep sleep. A bell soon rang around the school, and it was already nighttime. Eve and Chung looked up, including Rena and other students that are in the remaining.

"Students of Elrios Academy, currently right now, the battles between students will be on hold until next week. Please sharpen your skills and upgrade your gear as much as possible. Also, congratulations to Elsword of the Ked Knights, for winning the first battle. That is all for today. Please resign to your dorm and get ready for dinner. Get plenty of rest."

At the end of the speech, Raven stretched his muscles, and getting up, walking off towards his dorm. Chung slowly grabbed Aisha and put her on a stretcher as softly as possible while Elsword was being dragged by the Rena. Eve stood there, waiting for Chung before leaving with him. Rena smiled softly, creating a heart shape with her hands before heading off towards hers.

As Eve and Chung went into their dorm, Eve thought of how Chung and her might face each other. Her eyes grew sad as she stripped her armor off. She set the water cold and began washing the mud and sweat off her hair and body before filling the tub with water. She set the water in the tub and waited for a few minutes before the water was at the perfect temperature. She closed her eyes and silently thought.

'Chung... What's this feeling i have for you...? Have we met before when we were young? It's impossible, after all, we're destined to be at war with each other.. If we ever have a chance to be together, will it be possible? Maybe not, since we're just friends and there's no way you would like me..'

She sighed deeply, and finished up her bath before putting on some clothes. Her attire consisted of a light blue t-shirt and black shorts. She laid down on her bed and drifted into deep sleep without realizing it.

"Chung! Where were you?! I was looking for you!"

A small Eve with shorter hair, pouted as she glared at young Chung who chuckled softly before running away from Eve. Eve eventually caught up and placed her foot on Chung's chest, dominating him.

"So.. Why were you looking for me?"

"Oh! I almost forgot. Chung, i had found an awesome place! It's like heaven there! I want to show you the place now, so let's go."

"Eh, right now? But i have to-"

"Don't worry! It won't take long. Plus it's near here, it's just hidden by a lot of bushy trees, some willow trees and flowers of some sort. Don't worry a thing. I'll protect you."

Eve smiled softly at Chung who blushed as he lets Eve drag him to her holy heaven place. Chung couldn't help, but sigh in defeat and knew that he'll let Eve do whatever she wants with him. After all, he is her childhood friend, best friend, and maybe.. Boyfriend in a way..? Then again, they were too young to understand love and those kinds of stuff, but Chung knew what it was and his feelings for Eve won't change, no matter what.

"Chung, close your eyes!"

Chung looked up and there was a dead end in front of them. He glanced at Eve before sighing and closing his eyes. Eve who was sure that he'll look before she could even take him to the secret place. She stood behind him and covered his eyes and mouth, technically hugging him and urging him to go forward.

"Chung, don't complain, okay? Just keep going, i know what i'm doing. Just don't panic, or i'll touch you at that spot again, got it?"

Chung immediately obeyed her commands and kept on going while she told him which direction to go. Finally, Eve told him to stop and her hand removed themselves from his eyes and mouth. The place in front of him was just like Eve had said. It was heaven.

"See? I told you it was heaven~"

The waterfalls there were huge, icy blue colored and practically surrounded the whole place with the falls. Ancient willow trees with roots that are remarkably strong and durable, long oval leaves that reaches the clear water of the falls. Various colors of the rainbow of many species of flowers were around the area. Roses, Forget-Me-Not, Lillies, Dandelions, Tulips, Orchids, Daisies, Carnations, Clematis, Grape Hyacinth, Bell Flower, Salvia, Daffodils, Lris Flowers and many others. Many types of flowers that holds special meanings to each of them. The air was clear, fresh. It was truly heaven.

"Amazing..."

"Of course! Aren't you glad that i actually showed you this place rather than letting you go back and do boring stuff? Plus... I get to enjoy the scenery with you..."

"Yeah! Eve.. I want to do something, i'll be be right back! So until then, close your eyes!"

Chung ran off, leaving Eve alone for a moment, before coming back and smiling softly. At the sounds of his footsteps and him telling her to open her eyes, Eve opened her golden ravens and there was Chung, kneeling down, presenting her Alstroemeria, Amaryllis, Carnations, Heathers, Lilacs, Lisianthus, Tulips, Roses, and Forget-Me-Nots.

"Eve.. I'll always protect you, loving you from the bottom of my heart. Forever and ever.. No matter what, in my heart, there'll always be a place for you, Eve. Eve is my childhood friend, best friend, and.. My beloved girl.."

Eve blushed bright red before hugging Chung while laughing with him.

While back in reality, dinner had already passed, and there was no sign of Eve. Chung got worried, and saved some of his dinner, and walked towards her dorm. He knocked softly and turned the knob, which was unlocked. He looked inside and went towards her bed, which Eve was laying on, sleeping soundly.

He sighed in relief, leaving her dinner on her table. He pulled the blankets over her and smiled softly, turning on his heels, about to leave her alone until he heard something familiar from Eve.

"Chung... I love you too.. Chung is also my childhood friend, my best friend, and my beloved boy.. Let's come back to 'Heaven' again.. Okay..?"

His eyes widened, as he turned around, thinking that Eve was awake, but she wasn't. Chung's eyes had sadness, and.. Happiness..? Chung couldn't help, but hug Eve's fragile body tightly, before placing a soft kiss on her lips.

"I love you Eve... Forever and ever..."

~Author's Note~

I decided to give them a break from the battles. XD Plus, i want to focus a little on Eve's dreams. :D
