Eloise and Beau fought in a way that I couldn't possibly imagine. Their style of fighting though somewhat aggressive still maintains elegance.
Their agility and their way of fighting are what makes it hard to support Eloise, here in the backline. I'm left but to look at them, fight as I and Deadly Romance cowardly observe.
"This is not going well for Mademoiselle, her stance and style are rusty compared to Beau who is more confident in his attacks."
Deadly Romance narrates, as the fight progressed. We tried and tried to find an opening to support Beau, but we're far out-witted by Beau himself.
"If this fight goes on for any longer. Mademoiselle would be dead!"
We can't insert ourselves... It is a matter of timing and opportunity! Yet, it is yet to be unveiled.
***
My body's getting exhausted, with the artifact at his side. I am outmatched... My eyes are starting to blur, his charms are slowly taking over.
As I block his every move, he got an opening and penetrated his sword through my abdominal area. Making me freeze as I gushed and vomited blood.
***
I dashed through Beau, yet I was thrown by a magical barrier field birthed by Beau.
"Oh, sweet darling... Have I waited for this moment!"
No! I can't let this happen! I tried and tried trying to penetrate the barrier as Beau slowly touch Eloise!
"Let me help!"
Deadly Romance's using his brute force to make our way to the barrier, a mere magic wouldn't work in this barrier. It's highly concentrated! What do I do? What do I do?!
***
These feelings of pain and warmth, as the charms overtake me are uncomfortable. Beau trying to take advantage of my paralyzed body as he slowly dips his fingers down into areas that he likes.
"Submit to me..."
***
Slowly, I reached my hands toward the artifact within Beau's side. Though we're far closer, I could still manipulate the wind from the contained barrier from within.
It's just a matter of patience and will; to grab the artifact! One more! A little bit more! Please! Please!
"Celeste, on my count to three."
As I focus on the wind, Deadly Romance is starting to penetrate the barrier with his sheer force alone. We're almost there! The artifact is starting to loosen, all I need is just a major push!
"Two..."
One more!
"One!"
Deadly Romance penetrated the barrier and went straight through Beau as if he was a rampaging gorilla. Though he was stopped by Beau's right hand, and looked at him with a gaze of death.
It was the opportunity for me to steal the artifact, as with a big massive push of wind that went past through them. The artifact came off and went straight into my hands, making the barrier null.
Deadly Romance saw the opportunity as he grabbed Beau by the throat and threw him on the concrete floor with force. Thus their fight ensues.
I went to Eloise, as she was dropped off by Beau the moment he was grabbed by Deadly Romance.
***
Is this the heavens I see? Is the angel that is right in front of me, is my guide to the stairs of the realm? Or is it an angel in disguise taking me to hell?
My vision is getting blurry, and I'm getting cold... I can't keep my eyes open; they're heavy...
***
Eloise's life is starting to fade. No! I have to do something! I carefully placed my hands on a massive wound gaping around her abdomen, as a green glow came into light.
Am I too late? The wounds aren't getting healed! Is it because the sword used by Beau is somewhat magically altered? No! I need to save her! I can't feel her anymore! Her soul is slowly fading! I couldn't feel it anymore! It's faint!
"Fight Eloise! Fight!"
I've been enhancing my healing magic, yet it still doesn't work! It was then, that I couldn't any longer hear her heartbeat.
"Eloise?"
I nudged her.
"Eloise??"
She didn't respond.
No... No... No...
No! No! No! No! No! No! No! -No! No!
"Eloise!!!"
She's gone... I can't even save her! I should've taken the risk instead! γαμώ!
As I grab her head, embracing her. The Artifact that I'm holding, illuminated in a yellow hue. It grows brighter and brighter until it blinded me.
As I make sense of the situation, my vision finally clears up. The Artifact attached to Eloise's side, making her wound heal as if it were non-existent and devoid of scars.
And her heart... It's finally beating again!
***
W-w-what is this feeling? I thought I was dead... That feeling of me drowning in the void of darkness as the light slowly fades into existence is a cold, and scary experience.
I thought that it was my time, my song has been written and the music draws its last notes.
But it seems that I am alive... Looking at Eloise who is crying with a smile.
"Hey, there darling."
She embraced me tightly, her warmth fills me with comfort.
"I thought I lost you..."
I stroked her head and reciprocated her embrace. As our heads closer together, feeling our breath and steam to one another. I leaned closer into her li-
"I'm sorry to break your love session madames! Beau is now on the brink of death!"
***
Eloise stands up, to finish what was done. Yet I am still here with my heart beating ever so fast. Is she gonna kiss me? Whaaaaaaaaaaaa-
***
"The Artifact belongs to you now Eloise..."
I do... There's this magic that's creeping from the inside, but also enhancing me from within.
"Goodbye, Beau."
"There will be people coming after you!"
"So what? I'll take them all down!"
"You are really the most beautiful thing-"
Without hesitation, I grabbed Deadly Romance's dagger; penetrating it into Beau's throat as he slowly choked and eventually die.
I've finally severed my red ledger... He's finally gone for good. Will I be able to finally be free of this trauma? Or is it a new one?
It's finally over...
