"Where are you going?"

I turned around, as Druig grabbed my Hand, effectively stopping me from going out.

"Just going for a walk around the village", I answered and eyed him down, " Are you alright? "

He only nodded:" Yeah, it's fine"

He let go of my hand and sat down, but I didn't walk away. Instead I stepped closer to him, grasping his cheek. Druig looked up to me.

"Something's wrong", I whispered.

He sighed and carefully leaned against my chest.

"It's just...", he mumbled.

"Yeah?", I said and looked down to him.

He shrugged:"I have a bad feeling"

"What do you mean?", I asked confused.

Druig looked at me and jumped up before walking towards a window.

"I just have the feeling, that something...or someone is coming.

Cautionly, I stepped closer." Do you think the others are coming? ", I asked and leaned my head on his shoulder while my arms snuck around his waist.

" I don't know", Druig whispered.

"If it's anyone else, we can handle it. Don't worry", I said.

Druig chuckled. "You mean, you can handle it", he said and turned around, taking my hands in his.

I had the ability to control the elements. Fire, Water, Wind and Earth were powerful weapons in a fight.

A smile crept onto my face:"Fine, I can handle it."

"See?", Druig laughed, before he leaned down to me.

He pressed a passionate kiss to my lips while pulling me closer.

"I love you", I whispered, leaning my forehead against his.

Druig opened his mouth, but a deep rumble went through the house before he could say something.

Druig sighed:"They're here"

"Seems like you were right", I smiled, "As always"

I couldn't believe my ears. What Sersi just told us, couldn't be true. It just couldn't.

While I was quite speechless, Druig seemed to be rather angry.

"We need you, Druig"

I looked over to Sersi. She told us her plan, but it would require Druigs powers. He didn't seem to like it and stormed off leaving us behind.

"He is as stioc as ever, isn't he?", Icaris stated, looking over to me.

"He just learned that his entire life is a lie! How would you react?"

"We still need him", Sersi interrupted us.

I only sighed and sat down:"He needs time to think, guys"

"Can't you go and talk to him?", Kingo asked.

I scoffed:"It's his decision after all"

"Y/N"

It was Sprite. I looked at her. Surprisingly she stayed calm and came over to me:"We need him"

She held her hand out to me. I looked at her and then at the rest of the group.

"Fine", I said and took her hand. She pulled me up and smiled:"I knew, you wouldn't disappoint us"

"As I said, it is still his decision", I mumbled and made my way outside to surch for Druig.

I couldn't find him near the house. He must have wanderd off to think about Sersi's plan.

I walked a little bit away from the village, before I heard People scream and shout.

I quickly made my way back to find out what was going on.

I looked around and saw several deviants attacking the villagers. I immediately went to attack them. Druig and I protected this village for ages. I was not going to let them die now.

One of the deviants now noticed my presence and went to attack me.

I used my powers to create fire and attacked him with it. He backed off a little but soon went back to attack, but he was stopped by Kingo.

He fired at him and looked at me and Sprite.

"You have to distract him", he shouted and turned around to prepare his attack.

I looked at Sprite. She nooded, before sprinting towards me.

I folded my hands and when Sprite jumped onto them, I pushed her upwards to attack the Deviant.

She stabbed it into the throat while I formed shackles out of earth in order to hold him down.

"Hurry up, Kingo!", Sprite shouted. She had trouble with holding the Deviant, but Kingo was finally ready and attacked it from down under, effectively killing it.

I breathed out heavily and got up, smiling at Sprite. Our little trick still worked, even after all those years.

My smile faded as Sprite suddenly shouted and pointed behind me:"Y/N, look out!!"

But it was to late, I felt something pierce through my arm and then my ribs before I was yanked to the side.

I cried out in pain and looked at the Deviant in front off me. He came closer to me while another one attacked Sprite and Kingo.

I tried to get up, but it was useless. I felt blood drip from my side and groaned in agony.

The deviant was still coming closer, but he was suddenly attacked by the villagers who shot at him with their rifles.

"Y/N, are you alright?!", I heard Druig say before he came running towards me.

"I've never been better", I said jokingly as he helped me up.

Druig eyed my arm and rips.

"Damn it", He whispered, "I shouldn't have left you alone"

I smiled:"It's alright, come on!"

Sersi was able to trap the Deviant with a tree and we tried to escape but it seemed useless until Ikaris came back. He was able to kill the Deviant who had attacked Sprite and Kingo.

As we slowly settled back down, I really started to feel my injuries. That we had lost Gilgamesh didn't make our situation any better.

Druig slowly helped me laying down and treating my wounds.

"We have to help them", I said and grabbed his hand.

He only sighed and continued with my bandages. I watched him finish his work in silence.

"Druig", I whispered.

"I could've lost you today", he pressed out.

"But you didn't"

"But I could have!!", he shouted.

I carefully sat up and looked at Druig. He stared out of the window and watched the others prepare Gilgamesh's Funeral.

"We lost Gilgamesh today", my voice was shaking. I tried hard to keep the tears from spilling.

"They need you...We need you"

Druig turned around and looked at me. He slowly sat down beside me and took my hand.

"All I need is you", He whispered and kissed the back of my hand, "I enjoyed these last years with you and I don't want to lose this memories. I don't want to lose you..."

A tear rolled down his cheek. I slowly wiped it away and kissed his cheek.

"Let's save this planet", I said.
