Let her die

"Let me see how you will bring yourself back to life as you did to Lyra. Goodbye dumb purple head" those words echoed in Lilith's head as her view became blur and she fell slowly to the ground, tasting her own blood.

"Nooo!" She heard Andreas shriek in pain before she finally gave into darkness.

Immediately she fell, Nex looked around to be sure no one was watching before he ran away, not looking back but facing the direction of the institute and running with out stop.

"What just happened?" Andreas asked himself as he saw Lilith fall to the floor lifeless. And what did he do? He stood there, doing nothing! Absolutely nothing! He badly wanted to separate Nex's head from his body but no matter how he would enjoy that, Nex could not feel him. And the only one who could was at the verge of death.

He saw Nex run away from his evil but could do nothing more than to look at him with so much hate. As soon as he was out of sight, he scooped Lilith into his arms with tears dropping slowly from his eyes. "Lilith! Lilith please stay with me Lilith, stay with me"

He lifted her from the floor in bridal style and brought her back to the dorm. He made sure no one was watching as he would not want them to see a flying half dead Lilith because they won't see him and it would just make things worst. And luckily for him, other aspirants where already gone for their evening meditation class so the coast was clear.

He would have just healed her in the forest there but he did not want to take any chances, he no longer trusted the whole place after what he heard Nex tell Lilith. He just could not believe how wicked he had been all this whole time while Lilith had considered him a friend. He had always wanted Lilith out of institute like she was a cog to him or something. And he hid all that till now, how crafty!'

However, he will focus his thoughts on that later, but for now he had to keep Lilith alive because he was ready to loose her now.

He made his way into the her room safety and used her hand to shut the door behind him. Because left for him, he could just pass through it without worries but there was Lilith.

He lay her on the bed carefully like she was an egg that would crack if he rough handled it. He felt her pulse, it was very weak and she could give up anytime soon. "Don't worry Lilith" he breathing was unsteady, "l won't let you die and even if you do, l will bring you back". He only gave that statement a thought after he had spoken it. He knew the time was not ripe for him to reveal to Lilith what he was really capable of, but right now he had no choice.He must save her, afterall he was the main reason why she let herself get stabbed.

With that, he leaned over her to heal her wounds with his touch, but just when he was about to start the process, he heard a soft knock on the door.

*KNOCK*

"Lilith are you in there" a soft female voice spoke so innocently like it meant no harm.

Andreas did not no what to do, Lilith was no position to talk and he could not speak for her either.

"Lilith it's me Rain" she spoke again.

"Rain? Who could that be" Andreas asked himself with his hand on his chin.

"Are you in there? I am sure you know you are already twenty minutes late for class. I have been there already but did not see you, so l dropped in to check how you were doing and why you are not yet in class"

Andreas was totally out of ideas, so he just ignored Rain and decided to then focus on Lilith first. She would probably get tired of knocking and leave soon.

However, he was wrong as she kept disturbing him while he healed her wounds. Rain did not stop knocking nor calling from the door even she was been ignored. Infact, that even made her get more worried for she had this assurance that Lilith was in her room and even if she wasn't, she would not have gone far.

"Lilith l won't stop knocking until you open up" she persisted but her persistence was called off when her bracelet beeped, it was sensei Helia. She tapped on it and the bracelet projected the image of the sensei.

"Sensei" she bowed her head slightly as a show of respect.

"Where is Lilith?" He asked sternly.

She wanted to say that she believed she was in a room but would not open up but then she considered that she might have a strong reason for wanting her privacy right now, so she thought of something else to say.

"I have not seen her sensei. I believe she must be on way to class now, maybe l missed her on my way here" she hit her head in a clumsy manner.

"If that is the case then return to class immediately!" He ordered.

"I will be right there sensei" she nodded as she ended the conversation with just a single tap. But before leaving, she leaned to the door to Litlith's room and took a deep breaths before speaking. "I don't know what you might be going through right now Lilith but like l said before, l am your friend and will always be here for you. I will check up on you after meditation class, bye for now and stay safe" she knocked on the door once before running out in order to meet up with the class as soon as possible.

"Now that's the kind of people l would love you to call your friends Lilith" Andreas said to her while he stroked her hair now let down hair. She was still unconscious but all her wounds including the stab were healed like it never happened and she looked peaceful with her eyes closed. "She is indeed a good girl and would definitely make you a good friend, unlike that Nex" he frowned involuntarily, that was how much he destested him now. He was surely going to make him suffer in one way or the other but that would be after hus world has been saved and him real in Omania again. Then and only then would he tear him to pieces with his own hands.

"Hmph" he sighed as he still stared at the sleeping Lilith with admiration. He wondered how she would feel or react when she opens her eyes, and how he would explain to her he was able heal her wounds. If only the healing would cost her memory like it did to Lyra, but he wasn't sure if it would be feasible in her case because Lyra was basically dead and he raised with his breathe of life, but Lilith was only stabbed and wounded, so probably her memory would still be intact hopefully.

Well, whatever happens he was happy that he did not let her die...
