Heroes

Where does it come from? Where does it go..

I stood dizzy for a moment before I watched part of the forest light up in flames. Dante was standing behind me and I watched Dyl as he panicked. "We have to go get him!" I yelled at Dante. He just stood there in silence as I glared at him. Dyl was one of the only people I had at the time and Dante wanted to abandon him. I was disgusted at his jealousy. I understood he still loved me but I was moving on, and he had to, too.

I looked at the flowers and calmed down, then i remembered that he had took me here for our first date a while ago. I remember the date like we were still kids running around in our armory and swords, arguing who's sword was better. We would run all over the island like two rookies from the jury.

Now I feel like I'm old telling the story like it were 20 years ago, so really quick let me clear up that I'm 23 and we dated when we were 18 or 19 ish. So now back to the story.

I glared at him as I just wanted to punch him, then he took my hand and I was about to pull away until he pulled me into a hold. I blushed and fell down, trying to get out of his hold. "What's wrong m'lady?" He said in a soft voice. "Nothing, I just don't like hugs..." I said. "That's new. And what about Katy Kat? Let me guess, you don't like the name?" I turned away trying to hold back tears. I hadn't heard Katy Kat in so long... Max used to call me it but... he decided some things that made me mad and for the longest time just the thought of him made me rage and throw my sword. To here Katy Kat made me melt inside and I just wanted to sit in a ball and cry. He hurt a lot of people deeply and I was one of them.

I wanted to just hug Dante but at the same time punch the shit out of him. "Sorry Cass... I di-" I cut him off in anger "it's Cassie to you." I said stern. He smirked and in reply said, "your Mrs.Erickson"he said to me, and I had almost forgot that he was right. He put my ring back on my finger and I stood in shock and silence. I hated being his wife, though I still loved him deep inside, how could I not love him? I had known him since guard school, which we had been going to since we were 6. I wanted to hate him. I wanted to just throw the ring and run. But he would find me, time would catch up to me and tackle me with his arrival. I couldn't run, time is inevitable and at dome point even Raven Troops will catch me.

Time. Where does it come from, where does it go? Both questions I wouldn't get answers from just standing around in the dawn light. There was still the fire and Dyl was still down there.
