"Come on Adaza! You defied Sepheal multiple times to help me! We spent time talking in the dungeon, you trained me, I was only able to survive in the forest because of you! I'm only alive now because of you! You didn't just give me your powers once but twice! You gave me this bracelet... and it's one of the most important things I have... because it came from you... you held me close that night... and i never wanted you to let me go. Adaza please snap out of it! I... i get so mad at you because... because i think i love you! and i don't want to be away from you anymore!" Kiyan said slight tears in her eyes as she looked at Adaza and you could tell every word was true, she never wanted to be away from him again and she certainly didn't want this thing taking him away from her

Easily Adaza broke through Renia's spell. "Kiyan you are mentally slow, I swear." He simply told her as he tilted his head to the right, popping his neck. It took everything he had to break the spell she had placed on him. Granted, he was still greatly weakened from the weeks of poisoning. Adaza just turned to look at the siren then to Kiyan. "How could you ever think I was interested in such a disease ridden thing?" He asked her darkly, in their entire history of knowing each other. She thought this was his type. The siren just looked at Adaza in fear, he was the first to ever break her spell. "Kiyan, you and I are going to talk after this." He simply stated to her as Renia smiled sweetly. "I will go make you a fresh batch of the potion." She told her lord happily before leaving them to do what they felt fit with her sister.

"A moment of doubt in a shocking situation" Kiyan explained before staring at the siren darkly. She easily popped her fingers a bit wanting so badly to cause the woman just as much pain as she had once felt herself but glance at Adaza to see if he wanted to go after her first or kill her himself

Adaza just waved his hand off to the siren. "You... you are letting me go?" She asked Adaza confused. He chuckled at the stupid woman. "No, you're target was both Kiyan and I. I am tired, your fate will be up to her." He simply told the siren who just looked at Kiyan then back to Adaza. He just walked towards the barn. "I need to scrub your filth off of me." He hissed over his shoulder. He felt gross from her touch. The siren just watched him before looking at Kiyan. She knew that without Adaza she was as good as dead.

Kiyan grinned before shifting into her spirit form and grabbed the witches collar tightly. "I usually try to kill people so they don't suffer... but I think this time I'll make an acception" she sneered before phasing her clawed hand into the sirens chest and slowly flexed her fingers knowing it would cause horrific pain before starting to claw at her heart. "Don't worry I'm sure your master will join you soon, Adaza doesn't take lightly to stuff like this." she sneered before piercing and crushing the siren's heart before pulling her hand out. She then easily went towash off her hands and made her way back to where the barn was hoping to check and see if Adaza was okay.

Adaza just tied his pants. He had taken a quick bath to wash off the siren's filth. He still felt dirty. He had brushed his teeth multiple times times with crushed strawberries but still tasted her kisses. He removed the shirt from the line it hung up on. He placed it over his head. It was still slightly wet from the wash, he needed to wash his clothes, however he would do that later. He came from one of the stalls he had turned into a bathing area to see Kiyan. The barn door was slightly open still. He just simply walked into his dark stall and sat down. He wasn't sure he wanted to look at her after what had happened but he needed to talk to her.

"Adaza?" Kiyan asked quietly as she thought she spotted him in the barn so headed that way but wouldn't head back into the back stall in case he didn't want her back there right now.

Adaza just sighed lightly. Might as well and get it over with. "Why did you come back if you knew why I left you?" He asked her plainly. "And don't tell me because you might love me. That's not a reason." He told her plainly from the darkness. Love was selfish, it was harsh at times. Rarely there was a chance that you had to sacrifice it all. Adaza just made the choice when he left, it hurt more than dying itself but he was living with the decision. Now he found her there, his sacrifice and pain were for nothing it seemed. "Kiyan leaving you there was one of the hardest choices I have ever made. I'm sacrificing everything I care about to keep you and Lynia safe. And you mock me by consistently showing up and now you say those words." His voice was lingering with angry as he spoke. Was his pain a joke to her, did she enjoy knowing he was trying to protect everyone and watching him suffer.

Kiyan was quiet for a long few minutes before frowning a bit more. "That is part of the reason... the other is because of Lynia... she doesn't deserve to grow up without her father... and because while i was in the forest the spirits showed me a way that they believe will help you... I thought.... that it was at least worth a try... it may sound selfish but.... there are people that love and miss you." she said quietly with a sad frown as she leaned against a wall thinking about Lynia

"Lynia didn't deserve to get hurt either, things happen." He told her bluntly. "Your spirits lied. There is no way of stopping this transformation. Your's perhaps, but a Reaper. A Reaper is fated." There was really no cure. The only thing that could be stopped was the purple flames and the eating of life essences. Both the spring of Ashura had cured to a certain point. He could control them at will now, but that was from practicing in the dark stall over the weeks. Adaza just lifted his left hand, he looked at it as the combusted into the dark flame. "It doesn't matter if I'm missed or loved. The point of leaving was to stop from hurt you, and yet here you are again. Causing more heartache then helping." His stall was lit with a light glow. It was completely frozen in a black ice. He closed his hand extinguishing the flames instantly. 'I love you... Kiyan...' He wanted to say but could only think it. He sighed before closing his eyes and resting his head on the wall behind him.

"Maybe not stopping it... but possibly giving you your normal form back and keeping you from killing things just by touching them... and like I was trying to tell you, you can't kill me just by touching me, you would really have to try... heck at this point if someone managed to kill me I'd probably just be stuck in my spirit form or the spirit fox version of it..." Kiyan explained softly as she sat down outside of the stall glancing in at the light before looking off. "I... just didn't want to be alone... I enjoy spending time with you Adaza... and I know it may sound silly but my heart aches when I'm away from you... when you left me I felt like my heart was being crushed all over again" she frowned sadly

Adaza just never moved from his position. He let out a sigh listening to her. Truth be told he rather liked spending time with her as well. He had since their imprisonment together, despite the that he was being tortured. "A sharp continuing ache that not even having your heart literally crushed can compare too, I know the feeling." He said softly. He had been suffering from that pain since he left her. "I been having since I left you at your village. I really do care about you, that is why I want you to leave." He simply told her. He wouldn't beg her but he knew she wouldn't leave either. She was stubborn just as he was. "Out of all the woman in my kingdom, I had to fall in love with the most stubborn one." He said mocking her in a way.

Kiyan cracked a smile and started to snicker before laughing at what he said "And that's how you admit your feelings for me?!" she laughed before looking into the stall at him with a grin. "Kayo always did call me the most stubborn woman in the village" she grinned "Look I know you were trying to protect me... and i'm really happy that you care enough to... but leaving me there wasn't a good idea... I had been left alone before there and that's the reason I went into the military, but now I really don't have anything to go back to there... i mean seeing them all again was really nice... they even gave me another Darkous outfit and a new sword... but it's not a home anymore... hasn't been since Kayo left." she explained before smiling sadly "I never would have thought I'd say this but I feel more comfortable around you then my own people" she smiled softly

Adaza just looked at her curious. "I admitted I like you when you chased me down the hall. I had to force you back into your room to lay down so you could heal. You kept calling me stupid and making yourself angrier as you stalked after me. Why do you think I was drunk when Kayo had me distract you to give you that shot. Then I was stuck watching you over night drunk." He simply told her. He wanted to keep drinking that night but Kayo had stopped him by trapping into night duty. Of course he broke his arm in the morning when he woke him up. A smirk came to his face remembering it. It instantly faded from his face. He didn't want to remember those times. He didn't want to because it would make it harder on him.

"that's right... I don't remember a whole lot from right after I was brought back... I mean... I can but it's hazy, I just know i was kinda happy to see that you had stayed with me through the night." Kiyan smiled some then laughed a little. "I can't believe i chased you... i was just so mad and embarrassed" she laughed a bit more. "Though i have to admit you were kinda cute all sprawled out in that chair" she smirked a bit teasingly

He just rested his head back on the wall behind him, he was now facing forward. He didn't see how he was cute just sleeping in a chair. Then again it was Kiyan. "How were you embarrassed? I'm the one that is bound to you. I have traditions I have to follow with you, thanks to my mistake. You're still free to do as you wish." He simply told her. He never looked at her. Adaza just closed his eyes, he inhaled a deep breath. "I understand why your were angry, but embarrassed?" That was the confusing part.

"Because... I had already started to like you... to become atracted to you... but I wasn't willing to admit it even to myself... then I just couldn't believe what happened and well... I don't handle some emotions every well" kiyan said giving a little laugh at the end then frowned and sighed shaking her head. "I've never felt anything like it... i can feel some of your emotions... and your pain... and no matter what I tried I couldn't ignore it... besides i don't think there's anyone out there that could be near as... accepting of me as you were... it was you're job to punish female warriors... and yet you kept me alive and even tried to train me" she said with a smile

Adaza just shook his head lightly, she couldn't see it because he was hiding in the shadows. "Truth be told, I would have let you die in my dungeon. Lynia is the one that saved you. All I did was stop Sehpeal from killing you on the spot and in the dungeon we were in imprisoned in together. You however didn't listen. That's why he targeted you when you were alone." He simply told her. "I only started to like you when were imprisoned together, I was grateful when you brought Lynia back but nothing more." He told her plainly. He wasn't going to lie to her.

"I understand that... and what I did in the dungeon.. I just didn't want him to kill you..." Kiyan explained softly then frowned a bit "I can't say that everything that happened turned out bad but I sure wish that me dying hadn't brought out your powers... actually I just wish that i hadn't gotten so upset that day..." she sighed softly unsure of what to do or say really

Adaza just rolled his eyes at her words, well one of them. He had the shadows melt her into the floor before bringing her into the stall with him. She was sitting in front of him. "Kiyan, let this be the last time I tell you this. If you don't listen to me, I'll pin you on the bed otherwise." He told her plainly, "You did not bring my powers out. It was a combination of the shard, my own anger and my bloodline." He told her once more, she probably wouldn't listen anyways. However like always his threat wasn't idle.

Kiyan turned blood red at this as she looked at Adaza and nodded some at his words but the blush never left her cheeks. She still couldn't help but feel kinda guilty but she would try not to let it show and wouldn't say anything about it.

Adaza just smirked seeing her red face in the darkness. "What? No defiance." He smiled mocking her. Clearly she was a virgin, the deep blush told him that. "Perhaps I will have to use that threat more often then." He would have to remember to use sexual threats more often on her. Eventually she might test her luck like she always did with him pryer. Adaza just leaned closer to Kiyan. "Never been touched by a man before have you, your face gives you alway Kiyan." He winked at her before chuckling lightly and sitting back. He now knew how to play with her.

"O-of course not! I think I had only ever been kissed once before you kissed me." Kiyan said her face still clearly red but soon looked away thinking about his words and how close he was just made her even more embarrassed.

Adaza was shocked that he was for first kiss but quickly smirked at her words. "That was a small peck. You can't count that as a kiss." He told her mocking her still. "My daughter gives me small pecks on the lips, what are you a child." He was taunting her for classing that as a kiss. "I can show you a real kiss but I'm sure your virgin self will die of embarrassment if I touched you." He said chuckling. He was acting completely different then normal.

"H-hey!" Kiyan said her face still red but she almost seemed unsure if she wanted to hit him or turn away so she just looked away trying to cool her cheeks.
