[EVENT] Battle Log Two

[majorarc]

Who: Everyone
When: October 2, Early Afternoon
Where: The Castle/Forest
What: Escape from the Castle
Warnings: Possible death, violence and cursing, so PG-13. Remember, if you die, you will be automatically sent home and to sleep until the May 2 day change.

Upon realizing that everyone was saving themselves, The World finally broke free and woke everyone up immediately. Her voice echos across the castle, the dungeon opening up to the forest, which she hoped they would take quickly.

“Hurry, please get back to your homes, I can only hold some of the minions but so much.” She says, sounding strained. The Empress screams out after her, her voice booming.

“Yes, please get back to your homes, if I don’t kill you first!”

With that, you have the choice to fight again, but either way, you’re going to be expelled to the forest and chased by minions and monsters until you get safely to your home.

ooc: Remember, if you die you will be sent home to sleep until May 2nd

[ He should know her well enough to know she would do something like this - she has always been terrible at moving on and this situation was no different from that. She still couldn't even grasp the concept of him soon just.. being gone forever, it was too much. Instead Ange just passively allowed him to pull her closer and then give her that pistol as she grabbed it with shakey hands and a small nod.

But it wasn't difficult to notice that he was almost fully gone now, huh..? Even though she wanted to remain in his embrace more than ever right now, Ange pulled away a little just to be able to peek out of the bushes for a moment. The coast seemed pretty clear right now, so.. she pulled her head back into the bushes, to move back to him and plant a final kiss on his lips. Ange wasn't even sure if he could still even feel it now. ]

.. I'll run since you told me to. [ It was the only thing her mind could hold onto right now, in the middle of not just straight deciding to give in to despair and for example shoot herself on the spot. ] I'll go and run now, so.. p-.. please watch me, okay, Amakusa..?

[ She knew he wouldn't be able to answer. She knew that he probably wouldn't even be able to hear most of it, but she was just talking to herself as she watched him - Ange wanted to make sure that there fully was no saving him left, that he was fully dead before she could even bring herself to move. ]

[Ah... good, he was barely able to make out that she said she would run. He was her bodyguard after all, so at least he was able to fulfill that much. He wouldn't have known what to do with himself if she had been the one hit with the arrow.

It was too much to even open his eyes- and yet he still felt the sensation of her warm lips against his own. Too bad really, he would have loved to be able to even kiss her back, but even that was difficult now.

He let out one last breath, and then the life had left him- he was gone.]

[ For a few moments Ange sat there motionlessly, staring at his dead body. She wouldn't even be able to bring herself to move from here, she knew that much. The only way to move somehow would be to just try and block out any emotion, any thought - much like she had many a time during the bullying at her school. Don't think of anything. Don't feel anything. Instead.. just run.

And so she did. Without even thinking more about all of this, she instead just let her feet work rather than her brain. All she had to do was keep running no matter what, get out of the forest and safely back to the house. Even if it would be without Amakusa from now on, even if once they got to go home she would be all alone entirely again.. she just had to not think about that, but run.

The girl ran through the forest, avoiding the things chasing her out of little more than sheer instinct rather than thought, and then ran through the village until she found the house she had been staying in, the house she hadn't seen for a few days. Without thinking she walked through it until she got to her room, dropping the pistol on the ground with a hollow sound. Soundlessly she let herself drop on the bed, her bed - the bed she had shared with him before again and again already.

It wasn't until then that her mind started functioning again.. and she cried for the man she lost. ]
