The voice of the three could be heard "She will only wake if you love her the why a man loves a women" seconds later Mataya's eyes shot open and she looked at Alexander, "Are you ok I was so worried about you!" she whispered reaching to him, "Alexander my top concern is this war but you should know I...ummm,,... well I have feelings...of....love for you and I would like to explore them when the war is over" then she closed her eyes waiting for him to laugh at her.

" Yes, so i have been told. " he said. He knelt down next to her. " But i am afraid that i am not likely a man you want to spend the rest of your life with. I am not much use for anything off the battle field. My calling is to Defend the Clans and all their people, and i plan to do this task until i die whether from age or the sword. I would not want you to suffer the fate of so many Valtan wives. Your beautiful, and strong. You can have your choice of any worthy honorable man, i am sure you have gotten many requests from far more worthy men then I.... " he said kindly.

He was a afraid he would hurt her, because he was not going to abandon his duty for a personal desire, no matter how strong or pure...

Mataya smiled and had a wise look on her face, "Ah Alexander don't you see I am likely the only women who shares your dediaction from the Clan and its vaules, I would support any choice you made that was best for the Clan at any cost. I love the Clan more then life. No there is no one strong enough to be called mine. You are everything I ever wanted and you can not even see the amazing man you are. But I would not be much of a wife all I know is battle and I am much like the spartans of old duty and honor above all. I understand....you do not truly love me or want me who would" she looked at all her battle wounds all over her once beautiful body. The she whispered "How could I be such I fool to think a man of honor like you could ever love a broken women like me I wish I had died in battle with honor" as soon as the words left her lips the color drained from her face and she became weak. The Three were telling the truth if Mataya felt he didnt love her she would grow weak and the next wound she took she would died.

Alexis had gotten word from the Three of all that had happened returned to see her best friend. she was angery at Alexander from not loving Mataya, she was angery at many things. But most of all for all the Dark Daughter had done. She approached Alexander with a glare in her eyes, "Go back to war Valtan! Have you not done enough? Now my dearest sister will died because you could not love her? Did you know Mataya pledged her heart to her sword she has never even kissed a man because of that vow but somehow she fell for you and would have died for you and you can not love her. The Three tells me that because you would not tell her you loved her she will die of her next wound unless she stops fighting but she won't, so you minds well just kill her now then!" she looked over at Mataya but Mayata had growen so weak again she had pasted out. "Maybe Artus's love can save her" Alexis thought out loud as she rubbed her friends weak had. "Do you have no feelings at all? They told me even if you loved her a little Mataya would get strong even if you told her you loved her and wanted to be with her but couldnt then she would heal." Alexis began to cry for the first time in her life. "Valtan! Mataya is all I have, she is an amazing women any man would be fortunate to have her!"

Mindy watched what happened with wide eyes. She had never seen something like this before. She walked back down to the other injured people. She started to heal the ones she could one by one. She smiled and reasure them that every thing will bw okay for now.

[Temptaions Grasp]

Alexis walked up to Mindy a little calmer, "Mindy my friend how are you it has been a very long time are you well? We have much work to do before the next attack how can I help you? I brought you this" she handed Mindy a sack full of healing potions and things used for healing. "Mindy without you many would have died"

[ydnic_Suki Kibou]

"Oh hello, yes it has been a while Alexis". Mindy took the sack ans smiled. "Thank you. And I save lives all the time I am just glad I could help." Mindy smiled brightly. "You can help me bring all the dead bodys here and we can give them a goof funeral after every one is good enough to walk". Mindy pointed to all the bodys that she needed to bring in one spot.

[Conrade Wulfe]

" I know, woman. But i am a man, sworn to a hard duty. I am not fit to be the husband of a woman like her. My life is service to my people, my death a sacrifice for their well being. " he said sadly, another tear escaping his hard, weather worn face, vanishing into his rough beard.

" I love her, yes, but i cannot abandon my Duty, and i would not wish her to be second in line for my attention. Shes too beautiful and strong for that. If she wises to die rather then follow her duty and fight for the clans, so be it. " he said. " Better for me to have died... " he muttered looking down at her. This whole thing was getting tiresome. He wished he was back on the battle field. The maze of emotions here was starting to wear him down unlike any battle he had fought.

[Temptaions Grasp]

As he said he loved her a light surrounded them both, she opened her eyes then blinked. She stood up but was shaking, Alexis saw her and ran to her, "So he does love you" Alexis smiled Mataya looked confussed. "Who does? What happened last thing I remeber is...is..I don't remeber anything! Not even my name all I remember is a name....Alexander" she had a look of panic on her face. "Mataya calm down" Alexis put a hand on her arm then looked at Alexander well more like glared at him. "You are Mataya one of the greatest Valtan Warriors to ever live" Alexis knew that the spell Mataya had once cast to protect her heart had erased her memory but because Alexander did love her she could not forget him but instead forgot herself. "Alexander is your comanding officer he was one of the last people you saw so that must be why you remeber him." she lied. "I need to talk to him we will be back" Mataya just nodded. Alexis pulled him aside. "Look Valtan I never thought I would say this but you are the man for Mataya she remebers only you you have a strong bond. And you are...well you are good enough for her or she wouldnt remeber you. So go and help her find herself and you will find the love of your life" she put a hand on his shoulder and her face softened, "Alexander let yourself love you can be a soilder and a soulmate"

Mindy sighed as she was left alone to pick up all the dead body's. She started to drag them one by one into one place. When she would notice a person was still breathing she would heal them. She used up all the suplies she had with her to heal the ones still alive. "Damn this is longer when your alone to do this." Mindy looked around to see she was finally finished with every one. She walked to the castle and sat down against the wall. She was exausted from all the healing and all off the work. She watched all the people slowly walk away. Mindy smiled as she looked at Mataya and Alexis. "Ow my muscles hurt now". Mindy gave herself a massage as she watched her friends talk.

Mataya got a determined look on her face, "Well if I am a fighter then I am sure I will know what to do in battle, sir can we do a quick re trainning right now I must return to the battle field!" she looked pleadly at Alexander.

[Conrade Wulfe]

Alexander looked surprised, one eye brow arched. " Lets get back to our lands before we do anything else, shall we? " he said, looking around the dark and gloomy Dark One tower ." We are still ON the battlefield currently..." He cracked his knuckles and then flexed his hands. This whole thing was getting strange, STRANGE and too much like a fairy tale. Damn magic and its chaos. It was going to be hard to explain what happened to her.

" Can you move? " he asked.

[Temptaions Grasp]

"Yes sir" she didnt know why but calling him sir felt odd, she grabbed her sword and did some practice moves and mock attacked Alexis, Alexis laughed as Mataya had her on the ground in seconds, "Good Matti now try Alexander" she smile as Mataya lunged at Alexander.

[Conrade Wulfe]

Alexander moved in a fluid motion, catching the flat of the sword with his palm, smacking it down before it got close to him. His other hand held his hammer, rested on his shoulder. He had not move his feet or any other part of his body. He raised a eye brow. She was less up tight it seems... strange.

" You may call me by my name... " he said. He wasn't actually sure of her rank ...

[Temptaions Grasp]

Mataya shook her head "No sir I don't want to be disrespectful" Alexis laughed "Matti you are the same rank techinally you lead your own battilion of women fighter, but he is basicly second in command over all the Valtans so he can gice you orders but if you feel they are unwise you can see the Lord of The Valtan." Mataya smiled, "Well sir when we have won this war perhaps I will call you Alexander but until we have killed every Dark one and I have earned your trust and respect you will be sir" she then attacked him again this time knocking his hammer to the ground and her blade came closer to his neck as thou he was lost in thought like something she said got to him. She lean forward and planed and grabbing his shoulder and pulling him to the ground but there faces got very close there noses almost touching, she could smell his musky smell she liked it, there eyes locked for an intense second and reconition and love flashed in her eyes then it was gone she blush and broke her hold and straighted out. "Alexan...I mean sir I am sorry I...ummm well I must go perpare she then turned and walked with alarming speed as far away as she could from him. Alexia follow, "Hey you ok" she knew Alexander could still hear them as Mataya stopped, Mataya shook her head "No there is something not right I feel I am missing something and it hurts was..I in love with someone once and they are gone?" Alexia didnt know what to say, "Not gone exactly, you need to talk to Alexander" Mayata nodded "Yes thats a great idea if I loved a man then he would know it was likely one of his men, but I will wait till after I kill the Dark Daughter I dont know why but I feel she truly wronged me in a very personal way. After the war I will ask Aexander who my love is"
