My muscles began to give way as the last of my energy drained away. I had pushed myself way over the limit of exhaustion. I could not even lift my head when the first round of shouts came through.
" - Majesty! DarkAngel!" B1 came running from the clearing to the tree lines." They are over here. I can hear their heartbeats." B1 shouted. He rushed over and turned me onto my back.
" - Majesty are you ok?" he said with tears forming in his eyes. The only thing I had the strength to do was blink.
" - Please Majesty do not die on me! The guild will be lost without you." he said as the tears fell. I tried to reach down in side to find the strength to speak.
" - Dark?!" was the only word I could manage past my lips before everything went dark. I fainty recall moments of coming to and feeling excruciating pain. I recall gentle hands caressing my face and a faint voice,
" - Rest my love, I will not leave your side." It must be Darkangel. I got many visitors but could not quite make out who they were. One in particular stood out from all the rest.
" - Majesty I am so sorry for I have failed your father. I promised him to always protect and keep you safe. I never wanted any harm to come to you. This is my punishment for my betrayal. I loved your father as my own. Please forgive me". the unknown voice whispered. I tried to will my eyes open to catch a glimpse of who the voice belonged to but my eyes would not obey.
