Chapter 43 Aether

Evolet pov

"Blaze! "I yelled running towards him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him, forgetting about our surroundings for a moment.

"Little flower! You're ok! Thank Goodness! Did he touch you? Did he hurt you? " The anger in his voice would make everyone flinch, but not me.

I kissed him again. "No! He did not! "

"Evolet watch out! "Amaya yelled. But before I could turn around, Blaze switched our places.

He was looking me in the eyes! His lips lifting in a sad smile."I'm sorry, my little flower! I couldn't keep my promise! I love you! I will always love you!"

"Blaze!No! Please don't! "I screamed when I realised what was happening. He fell on his knees and I kneel next to him. Tears streaming down my face. "I can't lose you! I can't! Please, Blaze! Don't die on me! "I pleaded to cup his face.

"Isn't this cute? The lover dies first always. But no worries, I'll keep him alive a bit longer! He needs to see when I'll make you mine, Zephyrine! Just then I'll kill him."Aalto said stepping forward.

He whistles loud, and around thirty warriors came, surrounding us.

"Guards!" he yelled, then pointed to Amaya and Oren."Take those two to the dungeons, I'll take care later of them!"

"Yes, my King! "one of the warriors answered.

"Noo!No!Evolet! ".I looked to see Amaya crying and kicking her legs! Oren was silent. Tears were flooding his eyes! I nod at them, mouthing an 'i love you just before they were pulled out of the room.

Blaze grabbed my hand and I feel something cold being placed in my palm. I didn't look, not wanting Aalto to notice it. But I knew what it was. I hide it under my sleeve, and I get up.

"So? How is gonna happen? Will you offer me your body willingly, or I will need to force you?"

"Fuck you! I will rather die than allow your filthy hands to touch me!" I spat. I heard a soft chuckle and I look to see it was Blaze.

His wound was big and looked pretty bad. But if I'll move quickly maybe I can save him.

"Don't think about fixing him up! You won't be able to! I'll kill him. And even if I don't he will die from too much blood loss! You're too weak to heal him!"

"I will give you something weak that you won't be able to heal! Your Madness! "

I tried and connect with my power again. The warriors that remained in the room took a step forward. But Aalto stopped them."Don't! Let me have some fun! I like a little fight before having sex! It arouses me!" he said moving his hand up and down on his bulging pants. I heard Blaze grunt. He was mad.

"You're disgusting! "

Purple light came out of my palms, then spreading on my forearms.

Aalto's eyes widened. "This can't be! The Aether doesn't exist! "

"Well, it looks like it does! It's time to die bitch!"I said feeling proud.

I threw my hands in his direction, and the light moved with so much speed towards his chest. Just when it was about to touch him, he clapped his hand and the light disappeared.

"No!"

"Haha! Do you think it's gonna be that easy? You see..after my ancestor, God Tiros, killed that whore, Celestia, he paid a visit to her parents. He killed both of them, of course. But before that, he took their most valuable thing. Their knowledge.The book of Elementals.The book that he lost in his last war. But I found it. So you see my little Goddess, life is a bitch! All of our ancestors fight for thousands of years and all of them died! Mine because didn't have the knowledge I have, and yours sacrificing for their weak lovers. But this time things are different. Because you don't have the upper hand anymore. I'll kill you and everyone you love!" he said smirking. "Plus, you are alone now!"

"Who said she's alone? "I heard a familiar voice asked. I looked to the door to see my family. Aaron, Zefir, Farys and even Enya were there.

Behind them, I could see Fire, Earth and Air warriors fighting Water warriors. But there were many of them. Over the last twenty years, the Water Kingdom became the largest one.

Our three armies united was like half of theirs.

"Dad!"

"Evy? Are you ok? Get out of here! I will take care of this ashole!"

"But dad..this is my battle...I won't allow any of you to die for me. Get Blaze out of here! He is hurt! "I said in a demanding voice.

Zefir patted his back."Aaron! She's right! If there's anyone able to stop him, it's her!"

Aalto tried to hurt them, but I was able to block his blows.

After few minutes it was just me and him in the whole room.

"I'm tired of this! Let's finish it!"He yelled and a red light appeared in his palms. My eyes widened."Don't be so surprised, Zephyrine! I told you that you don't have the upper hand anymore. "

He threw his arms towards me and a force so great hit me in my chest sending me through the front door and out in the palace garden, where everyone was fighting. They all stopped and looked at me for a moment.

My ears were hurting so much. I reach and touched them, only to feel warm, sticking liquid on my fingers. It was blood.

I see Amaya running towards me, her mouth moving, but I couldn't hear.

I could see Aalto sending another flash of red light. But it wasn't directed to me. It was her, he now wanted to kill my Guardian. I feel anger building inside of me. I won't let him hurt them! I won't let him hurt my family.

I close my eyes, praying to the Gods to give me strength! When I opened them, a second later, I knew they were purple. I could feel it. The pain!The grief! The power!The Aether. I was Aether!

I get up in a blur and run to Amaya, pushing her down I put my hands up. My purple light formed a barrier, blocking the red one.

"It's time to play!" I said letting one of my hands down and offering to Amaya.

She took my extended hand and smile. I could feel the power grows. "Let's play then!" was all she said when her smile transformed into a smirk.
