  King Darian
Darian started to lapse into unconsciousness, completely unaware of all that was happening around him. His hand fell from Sienna's stomach as he was moved, and he felt the multitudes of extra blood being pumped into him.
"Sienna..." was his last thought before he blacked out. He was merely unconscious, not dead. But he was still enough to give the impression. The servants suddenly stopped moving, but then continued to help Sheridan, not sure it it would help. They saw the wound in his chest and weren't sure that he would live if it stayed there.

Sheridan  Sheridan continued to give her father the blood he needed, when she felt he could go a little without her feeding him blood she took a few minutes to try and stitch the wound on his heart back together before doing the same with his skin. She hoped by helping to close the wounds that he would be able to heal faster. Once she was finished with that she went back to helping Sienna feed her father blood as well as making sure the bags were changed whenever one became empty. (())

╚════════════════╝ Sienna bit her lower lip slightly when Darian was lifted from the floor and taken into his room. She wanted to fight the guard who picked her up but with the knowledge that she had just gotten from Celeste she didn't want to risk anything. She also just wanted to get back to Darian so thought letting Sheridan and the others do everything would make that quicker. Sienna became worried when Darian became unconscious, but slowly started to relax when she could tell that he wasn't dead. She closed her eyes and held him in her arms, praying that he would survive this. As she held him she spoke to him mentally, hoping that he could hear her even if he couldn't respond. She also hoped that his sister could hear her as well. 'Darian, please fight this. I need you here with me to protect our children and your daughters Mina and Sheridan. I can't do this on my own, I can't raise our children alone. Celeste, please forgive him for what was done. He truly didn't want to do those things, but there is one good thing that came from that bad time. Your daughter Mina, I have heard a lot about her from those in my village as well as from Darian. He has done all he can to protect her from your brother Oberon, but he couldn't do more for fear of getting her killed. Darian, help your sister to understand what happened, all that was done to you two, and all that you have tried to do to keep your daughter safe.' (())

King Darian
Darian heard Sienna as he floated in the darkness of his mind. He saw her in front of him, and he tried to reach out, but couldn't move. He tried to speak, but couldn't say her name. A slow panic started to bubble up inside of him, and he started to struggle against whatever was holding him down.
"Help... Help... Help me!" he yelled in his head, not able to talk still.

Selene
Selene screamed for help, a pain consuming her that she could not fathom, her eyes closed as she writhed on the ground. She did not know that her sister was lying on the ground beside her, unconscious and in the same pain.

Linda
Linda could barely move, let alone defend herself. Weakly raising her hands above her face, she felt the flesh slice open as a knife descended. She cried out. Her voice weak from the pain that wracked her body, and from the blood loss, she could barely be heard.
"Joshua... Please... I didn't turn traitor..." she pleaded, her eyes barely able to focus on his face above her. She blinked, noticing this, and suddenly fearing for her life, and the life of the others that she had been told to protect, both by her king and by her heart. Taking as big a breath as she could without coughing up blood, she whispered one name. "Riku..."

Riku Itsuki Amakura  All night staring at the ceiling
Counting the minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone ((To be honest, I've lost all interest in this roleplay, and in roleplaying as Riku. However, I know you all don't want the rp to die. Admitteldy, I would feel bad if somehow my absence killed it. So, I have decided I will continue to post. However, please understand that it may take a bit for me to post, and my posts may not be the best. It will take a bit for me to gain the interest back, as well as a feel for Riku personality's again.)) The monster and him had kept on fighting. His eyes barely noticed the gathering of others around him. To him, they were just random blobs of color at the side of his vision. Nothing more, nothing less. If it hadn't been for the strong scent of blood, the assassin probably wouldn't have turned around. But, after making sure the monster woman wasn't going to attack anytime soon, his head moved in the direction of the scent.
His eyes widened as he noticed a knife descending towards Linda's head. Luckily, the woman had enough strength to block it with her hands. But, a small hint of guilt couldn't help but go through him. Damnit! I should have noticed this all sooner! However, Riku knew a fight took precedence over saving others. If a fight could not be finished in his favor, then the man might as well consider himself dead. Thus, the guilt went away as he moved forward towards the warrior.
A small voice, calling his name, made his head look down. When Riku realized it was Linda, his heart felt a bit saddened at the sight. I should have protected her....but in the end, I knew this would probably happen. People always die around me...whether they are close or not. Riku's eyes moved to stare at the warrior now, his hidden blade extended towards the man. "Who are you, and what is your business with Linda? Are you from Kind Darian, or are you from the King and Queen of the fairies?" Admittedly, other than the revenge, Riku had been neutral to the conflict.
An assassination was an assassination. No matter which side ordered it. The only rule Riku had was that he wouldn't go after people without a probable cause. Unless they did something bad to others, other than one asking for the assassin's services, he wouldn't do the job. Whether it was out of kindness, or mercy, the man would never tell a soul. Not even Linda. There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time

 Joshua Collins Straightening, Joshua looked at the man that dared to address him. Scowling, he let the knife slide across Linda's neck, but didn't kill her, yet. He wanted to make her suffer and he wanted to watch. Joshua took a step towards the other.
"I'm not for any one side or the other, but that wench betrayed her King," he said heatedly. "And she is to die for that disgrace." Now turning his back on the other man, he went back to Linda. In the few short seconds that he had released her, she had fallen forward and had tried to crawl away. Seasing a handful of the woman's silver hair, he roughly pulled her up, pulling her head back so that he could look into her eyes. He could see a dull resignation there, and much fear. Smirking, he pulled his knife back out of his boot, and sunk it into her shoulder, then down towards her wings. Relishing the scream that came from her, he grinned and did the same to her other shoulder as well. Then, he held his knife to her neck, intending to slice her head off.

Riku Itsuki Amakura All night staring at the ceiling
Counting the minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone (()) Riku did not let the man know that the knife sliding across Linda's neck had made his insides burn. That he wanted to stab the man in his neck and his forehead so badly, not caring for the consequences. However, the assassin knew he could not let his calm facade break, no matter the circumstances.
His answer to the assassin's question made his eyebrow rise and his head tilt slightly. "I understand that betraying your ruler is a high crime, but why do you care if she betrayed King Darian if you aren't even on his side?" Maybe he is a mercenary hired by King Darian? They don't care which side they are on usually. Just as long as they get money, they are good. However...I feel that is not the reason. Besides, didn't Linda say that her orders were to protect Selene and Mina? Could it be that he doesn't know that? As his mouth moved to explain why she was helping them, the man grabbed Linda and stabbed her.
It felt strange that his body tried to produce the same pain. His hand went towards his shoulder and he glared as he watched the man move the knife towards her wings. The strange phantom pain made him unable to move. The feeling radiated across his back and his other shoulder as the man stabbed her there as well. Focus Riku! You have been in pain before! Just not....like this. The hand left his shoulder, the pain slowly going away. He extended his hidden blades as he moved slowly and carefully towards them. "I am not sure where you get the idea that she has betrayed King Darian. But if she has, then it is her king that has double crossed her, not the other way around."
His eyes looked over at the frightened woman. A small part of him wished to end her pain and comfort her, holding her in his arms until the fear went away from her eyes. However, Riku knew that giving into that emotion would only make the situation worse. Thus, the assassin pushed back his emotions once more. "Her orders, as she stated, were to protect the princesses, but I am sure that was with the greatest of reluctance that she followed that order." It was strange that he was defending the person who he had hated for so long. But now, that hatred had been replaced by something else. An unknown emotion that Riku had a good guess as to what it was. However, his stubbornness would not allow him to admit that instead of hating her....he had come to love her.
"For you see, she utterly hates me." The sting of saying such a lie almost made him take it back. Instead, he choose to continue. "You could say we both have a vendetta against each other. Let her go, and I will see to it that she is punished." His eyes once more looked over at Linda. I hope that you know I won't harm you. Not now...not when I.....I....Even in his mind, Riku could not utter those three damning words that he knew would end him. That the moment he allowed himself to say them, that Riku would never be the same. There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time

Linda
Linda could feel her life slipping from her, and could barely hear what the two men were saying. Barely able to keep herself upright, and barely able to look in the direction of the one that she hoped would help her. Summoning the last of her strength, she shoved Joshua away, and then fell to the ground, laying there, unmoving. Her blood pooled beneath her, staining her already much stained clothes, and her eyes fluttered closed as her breathing started to slow.

Joshua Collins Joshua knelt there, a stunned look on his face. He knew that Linda wasn't able to focus, but she had shoved his knife into his leg. Wrenching it free, he looked at Riku.
"Her orders? I highly doubt that. But for now, I will go and speak with King Darian, and see if this is true. For now, you can deal with her. If she survives," he added with an evil grin. He limped off in the other direction, intent on getting to where he needed to go, not caring about the blood running down his leg.

Selene
Selene slowly came to, and she stood, with help from Miron. She looked over to find her sister next to her, and then went to her side, but then was taken off guard by the large pool of blood that seemed to be surrounding the other faerie in their group. She looked up at Miron, her eyes worried.
"What do we do...?" she whispered to him. "We need to help Mina, but we also need to help Linda... She has protected us... That strange creature from before Mina and I passed out..."

  MinaMina started to come to with help from Meiun healing her. She breathed slowly, cringing a little from the pain in her chest. But soon another pain was drawing her attention and when she slowly sat up she looked around her and saw Linda laying on the ground bleeding profusely. She looked up at Selene and gave her a small smile, so glad to see her doing better herself. "S-Selene, can you and Miron help me over to Linda?" Mina turned her gaze once more to Linda and mentally whispered to her in a soothing tone. 'Linda, s-stay with us...We need your help and Riku needs your help as well...' She then mentally whispered to Riku in a calm tone. 'Riku, go to Linda and hold her in your arms. Talk to her and try and keep her with us. I can save her but only is she doesn't start to slip away.' Mina slowly breathed as she tried to keep a connection to Linda, hoping that by doing so her and Riku could keep her with them until she could hold her.

Riku Itsuki Amakura All night staring at the ceiling
Counting the minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone (()) Riku's eyes looked cold as he watched Linda shove a knife into the man's leg. A small smirk tugged on his lips before disappearing at the man's voice. Always fighting till the end...huh Linda? The evil grin did not go unnoticed by the assassin. However, the words only allowed Riku the opportunity to get close to Linda...without getting her killed. As the man started to move away, the assassin walked over to Linda. His urge to run over and hold her in his arms was stopped by the training imbued in his veins. Even now, Riku could not find the spark to get the emotions to control him. Only cold hard numbness lied within him now.
Admittedly, the assassin hadn't noticed the others moving about nearby him. However, he could pick up small murmurs of voices, causing the smallest of smiles to grace his lips. Strangely, I'm relieved they are ok...Why is that? The pools of his eyes looked down at the wounded fairy below him. Normally, the blood forming around her body would please the inner sadistic in him. After all, on jobs, that meant the target was successfully terminated. But now, his heart wrenched at the sight of her life flowing out of her body. Damn these emotions...Damn them...
His eyes blinked slightly, the only physical movement that showed he had heard Mina's voice. Why do I have to hold her and talk to her? Can't someone else do it? Even as he thought this, Riku realized he wouldn't want anyone to hold her but him. That if she died today...the assassin would want it to be in his arms, and nowhere else. Thus, his muscles trembled as he crouched down, allowing him the ability to wrap his arms around Linda. Carefully, the assassin moved the wounded fairy slowly, sitting her on his lap and cradling to her to his chest. The contact between them solidified the emotions swirling inside of him.
However, the only noticeable sign of the turmoil was how his eyes glistened with tears. Though, there were other signs, such as the slight trembling in his hands, and the pounding of his slowly breaking heart. "Hey Linda...." Riku almost stopped there, wanting to chide himself for the tremor in his voice. But, the assassin didn't care now. He felt too tired to keep up his facade of cold hearted cruelty. The tears gathered more around his eyes as he gripped tightened around Linda. "Remember....how Dominik would always say....that we were meant for each other....you do remember...right?" His breathing became more erratic as he tried to hold back the tears as he brushed some hair from her face. "I never told you how sometimes...I had really hoped that....he was right...." Riku allowed himself to lay his head against her wounded shoulder, not caring that blood would surely get on his face.
His tongue licked the salty water off his lips, his head still buried in her shirt. When was the last time I cried? I can't even…remember the last time I let myself go like this. "I know I haven't treated you right....and I know I am only a cold hearted killer....but even so...I....I...I don't want you to leave." The assassin held back the tears and sobs, not wanting to appear even more weak in front of Linda. "....Not now....Not when we might have....a chance to see if Dominik was right....If we are actually meant to be....more than we are now...." Riku took a few deep breaths and allowed himself to move his head away from Linda. A warm smile tried to appear on his face, but it looked like a strange half-smile half-smirk...considering Riku rarely smiled in such a fashion. "Linda, I...I lo...." The words were too hard to produce, and in that moment, a small smirk appeared on his lips. I always was better with actions than with words.
With determination in his eyes, the assassin bent down and pressed his lips gently against Linda's. He wished so much to put more into it than he did now. Admittedly, the assassin felt the gentleness would not be enough to convey his love for her. Yet...Riku could only hope Linda would be able to understand. If her lips weren't feeling slightly cold, he might have kissed her longer. But, the coldness made him break it, as his eyes trailed across the fairies’ face. "Just....don't leave me alright? I will hunt you down in the afterlife if you do!" He tried to chuckle, but it came off more fake than he intended. For now, all Riku could do was watch, and hope to whatever might be out there that they would not take Linda away from him....just yet. There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time

Linda
Linda felt the kiss, heard Riku's voice, his attempt to say that he loved her. Stirring slightly, her eyes opened halfway, and she tried to focus her gaze on him. When he started to speak again, she could, focusing on the shadow above her. He was holding her? She could feel arms around her, and she hoped that it was him. She wouldn't want to die without him holding her at least once. Suddenly, she found a determination in herself to hold on to her life, to keep herself from dying. She didn't want to die.
"Riku..." she whispered, blinking, trying to focus her eyes more. She could barely see him, the loss of so much blood making her weak. But she did not want to die. She felt some drops hit her face, and realized that Riku was crying. Smiling a little, she tried to reach up to touch his face, but could barely move her arm without whimpering in pain. She didn't notice, but her own eyes were filled with tears, trailing slowly down her face. "Riku... I love..." she choked out, her voice barely audible. She wanted to tell him that she loved him, but couldn't form anymore words. She couldn't talk anymore. She had to focus on her breathing. She would not die, not now!
