Diamond blue

Death or life

With a blink of an eye the battle started we locked blades for only a moment before true chaos broke loose. His speed matched my own and then a sharp pain rose from left left. Staring down I at it I realised he managed to cut through it. The blood pours out like a waterfall I quickly seal the wound with ice. And hastily counter attack the man. He blocks the blade effortlessly, this man is strong and with Alicia present I can’t use absolute zero. Lowing my temperature down to zero kelvin will kill her and him. Theirs to much on the line to lose to this man and lose Alicia. So I quickly let go of my sword, the man is distracted by it and I use this opportunity to create a sharp fish hook like weapon from ice and warp it around his head and without hesitation i swiftly decapitate him, his head flys into the air, hair flapping about. but even though I won he manage to land one more blow to me before being decapitated. the pain intensifies in my chest he managed to s***h through my back and out the other side before biting the dust. But regardless of my injuries I must first tend to Alicia wounds, I rush to her side stumbling in pain. I kneel down next to her and freeze the stab wound stoping the bleeding. I place my head on her heart to check for a beat. Seconds pass and the fear intensifies. Then i a hear a heart beat but it’s faint, but with my leg the way it is I can’t move and deal with the army of idiots at the same time plus I have a hole through my torso my muscles would give out far before I could reach the door. Not to mention the nearest village that doesn’t have a crap ton of people trying to kill me is at least a days hike from here. Ah crap I can’t let her die, “Alicia! don’t die on me, don’t die! i still haven’t I...I still have shown you the world yet” I shout tears swelling.

(Alicia) the chains...the chains keep me here in the darkness the loneliness is unbearable I realise that I’m drying I feel like just letting go and accepting my fate and that I will never escape there’s no light just a deep dark ocean of loneliness. No one will save me, no one cares for me, no one wi...”Alicia!!!” that voice. It’s faint but now I can see a light and I see someone on the surface in the light but he’s too far to reach thousands of miles above me there’s no way I can escape. “Don’t die!“ those words rippled through the dark the chains loosening. The man on the surface pushes an arm through the dark ocean trying to reach me as best as possible but still thousands of miles from me. I try to push free but the chains even though their loose still wrap around my body and keeps me to this place. I reach out full knowing it will never reach him,  my breathing becomes heavier I cry out in pain but the tears wash away into the ocean, the more I reach and push the more the chains dig into my skin. I don’t want to die I wanted to spend more time with him. I can’t die not yet he needs me, I ignore the pain and I reach as far as I can. I scream out “I don’t want to be alone” those words echo through the ocean the chains vibe and red cracks spread through out them and a bright red light flashes around me blinding me. I close my eyes when I open my eyes again everything’s blurry I blink a few times then I finally see him, his face had a expression of relief, confusion and surprise.

I remember that I was stabbed but there was no pain and no wound. then I noticed his wounds, his leg had a large s***h through it I could see the bone. And the giant hole in his chest shocked me the most. “Throst!” I shout. “Your hurt” Throst looks at me shocked “I’ll be fine I’ve had worse. Actually...not really” he laughs spewing blood. I started to freak out I have no idea how to help him.  “What do I do what do I do!!” I freak out. “Hey don’t worry” Throst says. He hold his hand onto his chest and his wound is frozen through and through. “Agh...that should stop the bleeding” he say in pain. “You need a doctor. What do I do what do I do where’s a doctor I scream.” I shout. “Hey I’ll be fine.” Throst comforts,  I stare at him concerned for his well being. Throst shakily gets up holding his chest. “No you can’t move you could die!” I shout concerned for throsts well-being. Throst crumbles in pain I quickly catch him before he hits the ground. Throst looks at me “thanks. We need to get to vendble a small city to the east it’s about a 5 day walk.” Throst says, “but throst you won’t make it in your condition!” I say concerned. “ we need a carriage and a horse.” He responds. “But where are we gonna get one?” I ask. “We can retrieve one from that crap town. But everyone there is not happy that I killed everyone in the tavern. So your gonna have to steal one also many of the towns folks are just outside be careful” Throst says. “But I’m not strong like you.” I blurt out. “You don’t need to be strong to accomplish a task you just need to persevere through hard times even if it may seem difficult.” Throst says attempting to inspire me but it isn’t helping. We slowly limp back to town I leave Throst just outside of town hidden behind a tree. I gather what little courage I have and I walk quietly into town luckily most of the townsfolk are out looking for Throst. I worry about Throst but I got him to that city so someone can help him. 

I look around but there’s too many buildings I can’t find a caravan or at least a cart. Then someone sees me “ hey you were with that ice guy!” A woman shouts angrily. She brings out a kitchen knife and tries to stab but I dodge as best I can and to my surprise my reaction speed has increased, and I instinctively pull my knife from my boot and I slice her throat as the blood spews from her neck her last word were “screw you” she croaks. I watch as she crumbles into a bloody mess and I’m disgusted but this time I’m not completely sad about her death. She tried to kill me so I killed her first.
