“I killed people,” Blue cried into Alexander’s shirt, so it came out slightly muffled, “I’m a murderer.”
Alexander shakes his head. "Look at it this way, Blue. If we didn't fight back, we'd be dead. You're not a murderer. You're a life saver. You saved so many people." Alexander says soothingly.
Alexander hugged Alexander tighter and buried his head as if it would make realtiy stop. He closed his eyes and said through his sobs, “I’m glad you’re -hic- okay.”
Alex holds Blue close. "I'm glad you are too." He says softly. He rubs his hands through the others air. He felt protective of Blue as he held him. Blue was so sweet and fragile… War came with the price of lives… And yet he believes he was a murderer.
Blue tried to dry off his tears on his own sleeve eventually, but his shoulders still shook and the tears kept leaking out of his eyes. He didn’t want to let go, he just wanted to stay curled up in Alexander’s arms forever. He felt a phantom blood covering him all he wanted to do was get it off. Forget the battle. Just stop time for just a second. He looked up at Alexander with hopeless eyes and a quivering lip, “W-When will it stop?”
Alexander traced gentle circles on his back as he hums softly. He wasn't good with emotional things, but he wanted to be here for Blue. As Blue tried to regain himself Alexander didn't dare let go of him. "Soon." He whispers. "I hope…" He gently pulls the other to him, kissing his forehead in a reassuring way.
Blue used his shirt and wiped his face off, getting If most of the tears. He finally withdrew from Alexander, but the phantom kiss on his forehead lingered. He felt better, in a small way. He opened his mouth a said quietly, “I-I brought Izzy.” (Is she still visible?)
The Aussie nods. "I'm surprised he was able to call on me." She laughs lightly. "How are you feeling kiddo?" She asks softly. Alex smiles at the female. "I'm alright." He glances at Blue, taking his hand. "Thank you."
Blue felt the warmth of Alexander’s hand and felt safer. Blue felt a strange comforting warmth envelope him. He opened his mouth shyly, “I- Well she found me.”
Izzy shakes her head. "Actually Blue. You called on me. You're emotions and desperation to find me made me appear." She says softly. Alexander nods. "Yep." He says softly.
“What?” Blue asked in confusion, looking from Alexander to Izzy, “I made you appear?”
Izzy chuckles. "I'm a spirit, kid. I've been looking over Alexander for such a long time that we share a life force. I can become solid and he can become… Well a ghost." He chuckles. "Yeah. Although, I prefer her becoming physical." He laughs. "going into the spirit realm is not fun."
“Really?” Blue looked Izzy up and down. She seemed solid. He couldn’t stop himself from asking shyly, “When you say ‘looking over Alexander’, does that mean you two are together?” Blue glued his eyes to the floor.
Izzy barks out a laugh. "oh no, sugar. I'm basically what you call a guardian spirit." She hums. "He's all yours." She teases lightly. Alex rolls his eyes, smiling. "No, Izzy and I aren't a thing. I can assure you that." He says smiling at Blue.
Blue turned red nonetheless, but butterflies came to his stomach. He glanced up at Alexander and took a deep breath, “I-I um like you.”
(I love my little Blue. There’s a whole war going on and he’s just awkwardly saying he has a crush on Alexander lol)
Alexander blinks, letting the information sink in. He smiles gently. "I like you too." He says, chuckling a little. He felt better knowing what the emotions were when he had first met Blue. He understood what it was.
“Really?” Blue asked, eyes growing wide and then he toppled on top of Alexander again, hugging the male tightly once more. He couldn’t stop the smile on his face, despite the carnage not a few yards away. He’s never been able to share his feelings like that and not be rejected. He was about to say something else, but the ground rumbled at a nearby explosion and Blue winced.
Alexander held the other close, his heart leaping. Despite the war, he felt an inkling of hope. His eyes held nothing but affection as he held the other close. When the explosion happened he quickly distracted Blue with a gentle kiss."I've got you." He whispers softly.
Blue sunk into the kiss, nearly melting. He felt his arms shift to be able to curl around Alexander’s arm, but his torso and face stayed solid for the kiss. It was soft and gentle like a beautiful harmony of music. Alexander’s arms radiated a warmth unlike everything Blue had felt before. The world faded away around them, and Blue murmured onto Alexander’s lips, “I like this…”
Alexander hummed softly. He wanted nothing more than to hold Blue for eternity and let the world become nothing more than a noise in the background. He held onto Blue, letting him shift a little to get comfortable. "I like this as well…" He whispers. Izzy smiles softly, fading so the two could have their moment.
Blue was about to say something else, but a shout came out of no where,
“Kill them, we must advance!” An enemy soldier pointed a gun at the two. Blue panicked, curling himself over Alexander to protect. He sent a blast of water at the soldier, sending them into a fit of coughing. Blue sent another waved, shuddering as the soldier struggled to breathe. One more blast would make him drown… Blue doubted Alexander was healthy enough to use his magic again. Blue sent the deadly blast, and the soldier fell just outside of the alley. It caught the attention of another group of soldiers.
“W-We need to find a better place to hide,” Blue said shakily with wide eyes, looking at Alexander, “Can you walk?”
Ah, Great it's her! Zhavia quickly got a hold of herself and was ready for the girl to attack at any moment. She wasn't going to die, not here not now.
Zoe tapped somethings into her wrist and a black suit formed.
(So basically black panther, but instead of a panther its a fox.)
Before she extended her staff and had a deadly electricity ball in her other hand.
"You expect us to just surrender?! You underestimated us. You managed to piss off a shadow weilder, a death angel. (some other people I forgot.) also another angel. And me. If we can't protect Earth you can be damn sure we'll avenge it." Zoe yelled at her.
"I never expected you to not protect this planet. So, how about you stop putting words in my mouth!" She was done with this planet already and didn't even want to do this anymore. But it was the o ly way she was going to live. They can go right ahead and kill the rest of her people. Then Tyson came to mind. He's the only person they can't kill, she wouldn't stand for it.
Zoe shrugged. "Well its not my fault you can talk." She replied before she blasted her with a lightning bolt. "Issues."
Alex nods, coughing sharply. "Yeah. Let's get out of here." He stands shakily, his body cracking and groaning in pain. "I have a little magic left. I think if we can make it into the shadows I can get us away from the main fight." He says. "Shadow jumping." He says, glancing at Blue. "It won't make me pass out. Just really tired." He says, to assure the other.
