Chapter 24 - Chapter 23 Avalon's discovery

"Avalon, you got this, just concentrate," Avalon said

holds out her hand with an iridescent beam, that was shaking,

"Focus.. you got this, make it more powerful," Avalon said hyping herself,

Avalon looked up to see it wobble,

as it disappears from her hand,

"It was longer this time," Avalon said

plopped on the ground, looked up at the sky,

it stayed silent for a bit until she heard footsteps, she pushed herself up,

aims her hand at the person,

"Woo, you don't need to aim your hand beam at me!" Renato said to put his hands up,

Avalon puts her hand down,

"What are you doing here?" Avalon said sat back down,

"I came to check on yea, I was worried about you," Renato said boldly, scratching the back of his neck, and sat next to her,

"So, how are you doing with the whole hand beam thing," Renato said

"It's something, I can control it when someone is in danger, or when I am confident,

then I have to try to use it longer,

it is frustrating," Avalon said sighed,

Renato rubbed her back for comfort,

"Don't worry, you will get the hang of it,

it's only a matter of time, then you will be able to kick me and my brother's butts," Renato said trying to cheer her up,

"It looks like it worked," Renato though watched as she chuckled,

"I don't know if I would want to, it's good to have a backup," Avalon said

"Well I don't mind being your backup~," Renato said flirting with her,

Avalon rolled her eyes,

"Whatever you say, prince charming," Avalon said

"As long that I am your prince charming," Renato said

Avalon hit him in the shoulder,

"Knocked it off," Avalon said blushed,

"Should I stop...nope," Renato said to himself,

"Well, I can't, you are just too majestic for me to handle," Renato said shamelessly,

Avalon hid her face in her hands,

"Avalon, come on, don't hide all I did was flirt with you," Renato said

grabbed her hands and moved them from her face, and smiled at her,

Avalon smiles back at him,

"So, want to spar with me?" Avalon asked

there was a yell of pain, from Renato lands on the ground,

"Not bad, who trained you?" Avalon said

"Both I and my brothers trained each other," Renato said

got up, ran at her, tried to hit her, but she shifts out of his way attacks,

"How is she this fast," Renato thought

keep trying to get a hit on her,

"When did you get into fighting?" Avalon asked

"Our father was, in the mafia fighting it from within, " Renato said breathing heavy,

landed a kick to Avalon's stomach,

sent her into a tree, Avalon got up and ran at him to the point,

where Renato barely can see her, he keeps his guard up,

"By the time we told our father we want to help the case, he was flat out against it," Renato said

looked around to find Avalon appeared in front of him tried to hit a pressure point,

but Renato moved out of her way,

he kicked her legs from underneath her,

she does a flip and lands on her feet,

"Do you think it will be that easy to sweep me off my feet?" Avalon said tilted her head to the side,

Renato flushed face smiles at her,

"Here I thought, I was the flirt," Renato said

went straight at her, and was about to punch her, she grabbed his shoulder flipped him over her shoulder, then spins kicks him,

"But begrudgingly. he let us help him... after three years she found out, kidnapped our father..." Renato said,

froze remembered what Marcello told him, Avalon started to let down her guard,

"Do we need to stop?" Avalon said

worried about him,

the forests went quiet, they can hear is the birds, with the octagonal, bunny frolic across the ground,

"She decapitated him... after that, we went against her mafia, keep fighting, until we meet you," Renato said stands still with a sad smile,

tears coming down his face,

Avalon walked up to him,

put her hands on the sides of his face,

"Enough, you don't have to tell me this,

but it warms my heart that you would tell me this," Avalon said comfortingly,

Renato puts his hands on her, takes them off her face, and just holds them,

"No... it's good to get this off my chest,

thank you for listening to me rant about it," Renato said with a sigh,

"Don't mention it, we're in this together," Avalon said brightly smile on her face,

"Is she always this comforting?" Renato though

Renato grabbed Avalon by her shoulder,

But Avalon block it, pushed him away,

"What? do you think I would have not seen this?" Avalon said

ran at him, so fast he could not see her,

Renato turned her and pins her to the tree,

Avalon looked around,

then looked at his golden eyes,

"You alright? you are gawking at me for some time," Renato said smiling at her,

suddenly a large gust of wind blew Renato back, away from Avalon,

but she noticed something off about the "gust"

it was blue and black,

Renato yelled as he fell to the ground,

"What the hell was that?" Renato asked

Avalon helped him up,

"Should I tell him, he might think that I am a traitor," Avalon though

"I don't know," Avalon said

Renato looked around to notice...

"It looks like we kicked each other butts until it went dark," Renato said

Avalon looked around to notice it was night,

"We should go back to Shepherd," Avalon said

Renato smiled holds her hand,

"Yeah, let go I feel like someone wants to kill me," Renato said

pulling Avalon towards the path to her car,

"Why did you do that," Ally said

hit Blake upside the shoulder,

Blake just stares off where Avalon and Renato was,

"Hey, are you listening to me!" Ally asked

"Why am I feeling this way, I need to get this out of me!" Blake thought

Blake then looked at Ally with a darkened glare,

"Yes... I did hear you, I just chose to ignore you and your pesky question," Blake hissed at Ally

climbed down the tree,

"I have never seen that from him?" Ally uttered

she followed Blake,

"Blake are you ok?" Ally asked

Blake seems to be angered,

"It's nothing of your concern, why would you care now?" Blake said irritated

Ally started to shake, noticing that his aura was behind him, shows how angry he is,

"You are right, why would I care but if you are going nuts.. just cause I have to work with you,"

Ally said regained her confidence,

Blake rolled his eyes

"I am not going "nuts," Blake said

walking down the trail,

"Yeah right. I can," Ally stopped in the middle of the sentence,

Blake's aura holding her against a tree, Ally looked around frantically,

"What's the wrong Ally? what happened to that overwhelming confidence you have," Blake said mocking her,

she keeps trying to get out of his hold,

"Finally some peace and saluted, no annoying women, think she is all that, but now you know that you are not," Blake said menacingly

the aura tightened its hold on her,

"Do you think I want to be her second in command, HAHA, no I don't, I don't want to be her little pet," Blake said oozing fury,

Ally started to punch his aura,

the aura pulled her away from the tree, then slammed her back into the tree,

Ally spits out blood on the ground,

"Now, her little pet, if you tell her what I am doing, or what I have done... you will die a slow and painful demise, do I make myself clear?" Blake said looked into her eyes,

he sees how scared she is,

but all Ally sees is dark green with fury,

soulless, eyes stared into hers,

"Let me go you demon!" Ally yelled

tried to reach for her dagger in her shoe,

Blake laugh at her,

"Demon. I don't think of myself like that, but if the shoe fits," Blake said

his aura started to choke Ally out,

"I..will tell..her," Ally said

trying to regain her breathing,

"Do you mean Lilith? I don't care what that witch

says or does, in the end, she will perish," Blake said

tilted his head, with a menacing grin,

"Not..her Avalon," Ally said

started to get dizzy from the lack of air,

Blake was shocked, but keep calm,

"Do you think she will trust you? After what you did to her, she would put a knife in you before she would trust you!" Blake said

"But you won't remember this anyway," Blake said

puts his hand on the side of Ally's head started to take her memory of their conversation,

Ally screamed in pain before passing out.

"Was that so hard?" Blake said
