“Talos…” Aika’s voice would escape weakly, but be carried upon the wind. Her unconscious mind seemed strong in desire to be near him. She wanted nothing than to be near her love. Her body felt too tired though as she started to regain consciousness. She’d start to move though in pain. The wound was healed thanks to Jasper that of whom she’d touch on the shoulder as well as touching Sheena on the shoulder, but she was going to Talos one way or the other. She’d use her newly found powers to guide her as she began to walk across the water to make her way to Talos. The battle was finished as was signaled by her sword glowing. “Talos…”, she’d eventually reach him before collapsing into the water that was deep enough to completely consume her.
Aika didn’t know what was going on as her body began to die for a second then become reborn. It was changing because of the attack. Like a changeling she was changing her form, just beneath the waves of the water. She prayed for Talos to be with her as she felt the tether that kept her bound to the forest snap. She no longer supported it as Aika Amatsu. It now supported itself. She was still the guide, but she was no longer its source of life as hair of white began to appear. A massive amount of bubbles would escape her lips as she placed her hands to her head as she tried to ignore the pain to her body as she changed from an amethyst haired woman with brown eyes to a white haired with orange eyes.

Talos leaped into the water leaving his frozen foe behind him. He saw Aika in the water before the transformation began. Shock struck him for a moment before regaining his composure as she finished her transformation. He took her in his arms and carried her to the shore to ensure she was alright.

Aika would sputter and cough as she clung to Talos. Her head rested against his shoulder as she opened her eyes up. “Talos…I love you.” The sword she had summoned to attack Calyph with would vanish from location. She still had the signs of an injury that needed to be cleaned and dressed though it was healed. “Let’s return to the inn and get cleaned up of the blood on us both.”

"And what of your new friends that came to save you while I was unable to make it to you in time? We can not leave them behind can we?" Talos asked his newly changed love interest. At least that is how Talos came to understand it is that he vared strongly for Aika.

"Sheena can handle the one that rescued me. I trust her judgment. Let us go for now. Sheena can lead the young man to us when I am dressed at least in something clean of blood and I am clean. The same for you, being clean of Calyph's blood." Her words came softly as she remained clinging to Talos. She still ached terribly, but her words made sense. Her eyes looked up then at Talos as she touched his face gently. "Let's head to my home instead. It's been restored to it's original luster. The inn has no barrier. My home does. The house is next to the inn."

"All right I understand Aika but first there is a matter of Calph. To ensure his eternal dealt we should shatter and burn Calyph. His power was incredibly strong and ensuring his demise the best we can is necessary. Lets make sure we finish the job." Talos said hugging Aika and looking at the frozen madman.

“I think I have the strength to do that.” Aika would hold her hand out to Calyph as she extended her powers just a little though she was exhausted to shatter, burn, and bury Calyph into rock so that he could never resurrect again and come after her. She did not need him after her. “Let’s go.” She’d say this while trying to catch her breath as she hugged Talos back placing her head on his shoulders.

"Of course. Conserve your strength and I will take you to your destination. "Talos said as he began to walk to where she guided him. Before to long he found the house she talked about. He remembered when he kicked the door of the inn in not long ago so he tried to be more gentle with this door.

Aika would nod as she held onto him. She would indeed conserve her strength as she looked around her home. She instantly saw the tub that was quite bigger than last time. Her parents must have known that she would fall in love and her wardrobe being brought into the house. “There’s the tub over there already with fresh clean water in it. I wonder if it is hot though.”
Aika would carefully move to where she could stand up on her own despite being told to conserve her strength just so she could test the water. She would find that it was warm but not hot. She’d put some wood under the tub and light the logs so that the wood would burn. “If you wish to stay you may, but I must undress to wash the wound.” Aika then would drop the kimono on her body from herself and step into the waters sinking herself into the tub.

"You bare skin does not bother me Aika. All I am concerned with is your well being. If you require anything from me I shall be right here for you." Talos said as she slipped into the tub.

“Thank you Talos. That means a lot to me.” She had to wash the wound area though heal. It’d be another scar on her body where Calyph would have stabbed her as she silently began to cry. He had done something to again disfigure her body as she looked at herself. It was important for Talos to be there for her, because Aika was feeling down due to the fact Calyph managed to touch her yet again. She felt dirty and unclean.

Talos found himself at the side of the tub holding Aika.
"Calm down Aika, You did something great today by saving the world from that madman. You can finally calm down now." Talos said as he embraced her. His fingers would run through her hair as she sobbed.

Aika tried to quiet her sobs, but found it difficult. Her body instead would turn around and hug Talos as she buried her face in his chest. She’d let her body clean itself in the purified water while she cried the tears that needed to be cried. Her hands would move to being on his chest before finally she seemed to fall asleep. She clearly was tired from all that had happened, but she needed to get dressed still as she woke up only seconds later. “I’m alright now. I think I’m cleaned now. I should get dressed.”

"Are you sure you are alright?" Talos asked concerned for Aika's well being. "We can stay here for as long as you like." He hugged her firmly to show her he meant it. His feelings for her seemed to be growing. A feeling he has lacked until recently.

Jasper gave a slight smile and nodded to Sheena as she introduced herself. He scowled when the guide got up. She still needed to be taken care of and he hadn't been done with her injury. "Wa vewyni." Jaz fussed when she ran off with the other guy. "E gotr's bari soherw loni av kin. Tki't warro tlon ev skos etr's sohir loni av mnamincu..." He stood up and ran a hand through his hair, wonderin where to go now.
("Go figure.")
("I wasn't done taking care of her. She's gonna scar if that isn't taken care of properly...")
