Dammit dammit DAMMIT!
I launched myself forward, catching Myria by her waist and launching a massive wall of fire behind me.
A few minutes later we emerged inside of the cave Eliot and Lala had fallen in. Their bodies were just as we had left them.
Placing Myria against the wall, I checked her heartbeat. My ear against her breasts, she coughed softly.
"Taking advantage of me?"
She smiled at me as I wiped the tears in her eyes.
"That man... he's the one that destroyed my home. The one that killed my people!"
Her breathing slowed down heavily.
"Myria, do you trust me? Blink once if you can..."
I could feel my own tears falling now. I didn't want to lose someone. Not to someone like that!
She blinked once, her voicing failing now. She looked into my eyes as I bit my lip open.
"I'm sorry."
Leaning close, I pressed my lips against hers, pushing a few drops of blood into her mouth.
"Can this save her?! Lilly!"
"I-I'm not sure. I was never prepared for this. She's bleeding out... what the fuck did he even use?!"
"it was cold, but not solid. I think it was water or something."
I placed my hand against her face, her eyes already glazed over.
"Tch..."

'Achieved Level 23'
"What? How?"
"I think... I think she gave you her power."
'Credits: 14000'
'Emergency Task: Kill unknown Dark Lord. Now.'
"Lilly?"
"I don't... it shouldn't react this way."
"Either way, I've got to do this. He needs to die. When I get in there, overcharge me."
"You don't have to tell me twice."
