Chapter 152 - Chapter 151 Not at fault

Blake watched them sign the oath, making the room shift with the angel's power. It shifted from what Blake saw the light erupting from the waves, its silver at the start with yellow and pink speeaks when it all turned dark, Blake held back a satisfied smirk and glanced at Peter, his voice cold and pleased, tells the angel, 

"Take the oaths, hide it in you like the other one," 

Peter grins at his master as he snatches the paper oaths into his shadow form. He moved over Blake's shoulders, showing the oaths to him. Blake glanced at him again, Peter hummed around him, making it sound like the ground is rubbing under them,

"Keep the oaths in you, i will look them over later,"

Blake peered down at Ceth and Lenn, their angels Ain and Brand, they lay on their host trying to hold onto them, protect them for their own wills, their own agenda. they flutter as stalk Blake and Peter, 

"If you want to stay, and we can talk about your money and territory, you will watch over for me," 

Ceth tried to get up, glaring at Blake, only for Brand to hold her down, stopping her. Ceth peered at her angel harshly. It could cut through Brand. 

"You singed now you can't go back on it Ceth you know the repercussions of it," 

Ceth scoffed, moving her arm to swiped away. Brand her butterflies flew above her, like Peter, she moved over her shoulders, cradling the butterflies around her. 

"I know, Brand, you don't have to remind me like a child, I know what i have signed myself to," 

Ceth gaze was on her angel when she looked at Blake watching him leave with or without them, Lenn then stood shaking Ain helped her up her butterflies they held onto Lenn arms picking her up helping her walk Lenn glanced at her sister uttering, 

"Follow him. We need to finish what you have started. What we have wanted," 

Lenn shakingly walked slowly to the door with Ceth following her, their wounds burning in pain from their last fight, reminding them of their bitter lost. Ceth scoffed walking skittishly walking behind Blake's staggering form with Lenn behind her using the wall as a means to lean on as Ain tried to hold her up, Blake heard them but was unbothered by the moans of pain the cries coming from there bodies to rest he had wanted what is his. His territory, his power. his control his plan, Blake stopped feeling a shiver down his spine, a familiar one. He looked over a window he's passing by seeing the light shown they had made by singing a oath, Blake heard Peter in his ear,

"You felt it. They saw our deal in real time, master," 

Blake kept walking to his office, not bothering to look at Peter, "Yes she did,"

Peter heard the tine in his master's voice...no doubt he is pleased to hear that she saw this, that lead to another sharp edge of this sword, she knew of it now, she would be preparing for the next time he does this,Blake couldn't hold back the small curl at the edge of his lips, 

"Avalon, you can't stay in here for long," 

Avalon looked up from her seat seeing that Damien leaned against the door frame his, He has his broken arm free from the sling for some air, he looked at her his head slightly door as he sees the scene before him, Avalon leaning forward o the chair looking at her cut and bruised hands, next to Marcello unconscious body. Her hands shook from how much strength she had lost today. Avalon glanced up at him her silver eyes showed such a tried hue that made his heart clench. 

"I won't. i just wanted to sit her for the moment while the doctor checked on Ally," 

Avalon sat up, letting out a pained hiss, her bones cracking and crushing as she sits up, Damien got off the door frame, stepping towards her and his knocked out brother. Damien got to the bed post his hand rest on the bed as he looked over his brother, he's still the same color but his heart its beating better stronger even with it been cut into, that fire she set in him in the time of her desperation its stronger than they anticipated, the blood flow was normal but his heart was stronger than a normal human heart, its keeping him alive, Damien glanced at Avalon seeing how exhausted, 

"Sounds like something you would do,"

Damien sits next to her and moves his unbroken arm, gently cradling her hand, he saw the cuts red and irritated, he moved his hand around her carefully not watching to aggravate her cuts,

"You know you shouldn't be here this long, you also have him in your head saying, rest eat don't you worry about me I've handled my brothers nothing worse than that,"

Avalon glanced at him. A small smile started to form on her face, "He seems to be in there most days,"

Damien chuckled as he got a better look of her hand. Seeing the red irritated cuts, he moved it softly, and he examined it,

"Where's Sandel? Shouldn't she have healed this by now?" 

"I told her not to heal me yet, not until she finished with Ally and Coille," 

Damien remembered walking his way to her, past her seeing a weird glow from the room over a bulky form. It must have been Coille. Damien felt a conner of his lips curl up so slightly, 

"Putting other before you again, Avalon so righteous of you,"

"I know right main character aesthetic," 

Avalon and Damien chuckled from their back and forth, he see her stopping slowly, looking at Marcello. Her hand reached out, grasping his. She rubbed his hand, 

"Damien,"

He shivered from the tone in her voice it was hoarse filled with regret, he glanced at her face seeing the weary, she held tighter onto Marcello and said, "Do you think i did this to him...putting him in a coma i mean,"

Damien stared for a moment taking in what she said, she saved his life he wouldn't be breathing if it wherent for her, Marcello would have been five feet in the ground with Renteo, Damien moved his hand resting it on there's,

"Avalon you shouldn't think like that, you're the reason he's living coma or not, dont fuck yourself like that thinking that you're the cause of this no that lies on Lugh and Tuatha,"

"I.. I know that Damien, but maybe if i didn't stop them, i let them have their oath have what they want. Maybe Marcello would be awake. Be talking be with us," 

"That would be letting all that Marcello has worked for years would be shit you get that Avalon," 

Damien pointed at Marcello, who is twitching. He was recognizing their voices. But they didn't notice because they're staring at each other their gaze holding their own emotions, One emerged in regret and almost contempt the other waged against it having its own caring and protective gaze staring back at hers a stark contrast, 

"You have done nothing wrong Avalon...you did all that you could in what circumstances gave you, got information out of Chulain, fighting a nut job processed with an angel, then revived my brother, you did more then any normal human can...they couldn't do anything to help Marcello under that ruble, the only one that could have helped him was the one crying over his body, the tears that tread over his chest...on his heart," 

Damien moved her hand resting it in her lap as Avalon stared at him in a daze, her hands shaking the cuts starting to hurt, Avalon didn't know how to react to what he said much less speak, telling that he wrong suddenly turned to smoke in the wind gone but lingering, Avalon then felt a crawling fire moved onto her knee, her head turned finding Sandel lingering on her knee, she twirled and flickers moving to their hands, 

"Avalon, you know he speaks the truth," 

Sandel is over their hands, healing Avalon cuts her bruise diapered as Sandel tells Avalon, 

"You did what you could, Avalon. You didn't have a choice, have you?" 

"Not to,"

"To let Lugh and Tuatha run over us...to kill us is that what you are saying?" 

Sandel moved from her hands to her arms, "You know that what would have happened, we all would have. Do you see now that if you didn't do what you did, it would have ended worse them what happened to Marcello," 

Damien watched Sandel move holding Avalon's face healing her cuts that laid over her Avalon felt her hand still being held by Damien and the heat from Sandels healing flame, She stared at them with a new sense of appreciation. 

"No, i...i understand," 

Avalon choked out as she looked at them feeling Sandel heal her, something was about to change again this time she wants to catch them off guard..by now it wasn't feasible to stop Blake but knowing what he had planed that would be the best opeation for them now,
