Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aaron shook his head, as anger and hate grew in his face. This man was the cause for everything that happened. Why so many people wanted him dead. He glared, " Never!! " He screamed, sureness in his voice, even though he was shaking, " I would never tell you where she went!! Even id I die. At least I know there's a chance she'll live. " Then his eyebrow seemed to flinch. And he cast a huge lightning blast in his hand, stronger than the blast he'd used on the village, caused from his anger, on to Horacio. And then charged at him, at the same instant the blast of lightning hit, he brought his blade down on Horacio's head. Intending to cut Horacio from head to toe.

Raven continued to run ahead, then his eyes widened and he came to a complete stop. " what am I DOING?! " He asked himself, " Letting Nero fight a woman that looks like Amelia? He couldn't lay a hand on the monster! " He quickly spinned around and ran back to where he left Nero and Amelia. And Raven gasped, his heart almost seemed to stop as he found his brother layed out on the ground, a sword in his gutt. And his eye's were also closed, blood surrounded Nero. And Raven jolted up to him. Quickly pulling the blade out and shook Nero, it looked like his brother had just given up, " Brother!!! I-I mean--.... N-Nero!!! Hey! Snap out of it! You're badly wounded, but you've got to fight it!! Just stay a little longer and I'll have you all healed up! Brand as new! " Raven seemed to be panicing, but he let out a weak smile. He brought his hand right above Nero, and his hand glowed white, he was trying to heal Nero. But the spell wasn't working, the wound stayed the same and Nero was still pale. Raven gasped, and it felt like th wind was knocked out of him. Nero was dying. And he couldn't do a thing to help him.

A muscle in Aaron's face seemed to twitch, when Horacio mentioned he killed Nero. But the suprise didn't show in his face, it remained serious. He was nervous, yet he hardly showed that either. Aaron shook his head, " ...I can't.... I know that much. " His face showed a slight smirk, " ....But if risking my life for Kaguya will by her more time to get away from you..... I'll do it. " He cast lightning into the sky, and suprisingly the lightning came down, into a strong storm. Each hit from the lightning, brought chunks of the rock into the air. And left cracks in the ground. ANd then he charaged at Horacio with his blade again.

Aaron's eyes widened in pain as the small blade dug through his back and out his chest, and he let out a loud scream as it was pulled out. Blood flew rapidly from the almost-fatal wound, and Aaron fell lifelessly to the ground. His eyes shut for a few moments, and when he opened them again, he saw the trail of blood following Horacio, and let out a soft chuckle, smirking slightly as he closed his eyes. Good.... He's going the wrong way......At least.... That'll buy her more time....Please Kaguya....Please don't come back for me....Please... the thought kept repeating itself. And Aaron let out another small laugh, staring at the spinning sky. " ...I know......T..that I said......I'd be careful.... And..........Come back to the village with you..... I told you to.....not worry about me...........That I....wouldn't get killed....... But I might not.....Keep that promise.........I'm so S..orry...........You'll forgive me.....won't you......Kaguya..? " Aaron smiled, up at the sky again. His sight becoming less and less clear, and more and more watery. He knew he was losing too much blood. His eye's seemed to grow more and more dimm, as he stared blankly at the sky above him.

Aaron's eyes fluttered back open again, he'd passed out momentarily. He stared straight ahead, as if not knowing what was going on around him. But at least he was coming back to his senses, the stinging pain, and the heartbeat banging in his head. He moaned, and finally seemed to see Kaguya. He frowned, he wanted to tell her how glad he was to see her, but knew she couldn't be here any longer. He managed something that fit an angry expression, " ...I..I.... thought I...Told you to run.........Don't you....Get it?.........Kaguya........They'll kill you.... "

Aaron's throat seemed to tighten up, and he found that tears were gathering in his eyes too. ".....I...I..." He found that he was at a loss for words. HE finally gave up his act and let out a light smile, but the smile soon faded. And he hugged her as tight as he could too. He found he was so weak he couldn't really even move, so he just continued to lay there in her lap, weakily hugging her back. " Oh kaguya... " He sobbed, " ...Please don't leave....I don't want you to leave.... Just stay here.... Don't fight. ... I don't want you to die... I love you, Kaguya... " He was so obviously scared, he was shivering slightly.

Aaron let out a soft, pain-filled laugh. His head still throbbed and his wound wouldn't heal all the way. " I'm not.....sure we can. " He said, truthfully, his smill again fading, ".... Kaguya... That copy of...Of Amelia. She killed Nero.... With one... blow.... And that...m..onster was only.....A fraction of that man's power..... " Aaron then stopped and let out a hard, choking cough. So hard, his body shook. And he slumped back into kaguya's lap. Blood ran freely down his mouth, and his eyes were squezzed shut in pain. The blad that had gone through him had damaged one of his lungs. Then he said in a small whispered voice, " ...Kaguya......We need to run...... Horacio...He's....St..ill trying to find you... "

Aaron grimaced, staring at Kaguya as she began to cry. He didn't like seeing her cry and shook his head, tears gathering in his own eyes. "....I'm...so sorry Kaguya..." he managed to say in the same, small whispered voice. Trying to do what he could to comfort her. And he wiped the blood of his mouth and they began to run into the forest. In not to long they were in the middle of the forest, and Aaron stopped falling weakily to his knees. He could barely breath, due to the damage done to his lung, it felt like his lung was on fire. Tears ran down his face like crazy. And he just sat there trying to regain breath, but couldn't, he was in pain. He didn't even look up at kaguya, his eyes were very glassy looking and a few moments later and he passed out.

Aaron's eyes opened back again, but hardly, they were only half-open. And entirly dimm. He hardly seemed to notice his surroundings too. He was gasping lightly just so he could breath! " .....O..Oh .....Kagu....y..ya ....I'm really....S..orry......... " he stared up at her, helplessly. Shamefully. Why was it he always got hurt, and failed to protect her? He tilted his head away, coughing hard, shaking his entire body, and blood streamed out his mouth. He moaned, keeping his eyes closed. Leaning his body against kaguya. Resting as best as he could, his body completly limp, weightless, in her arms.
