Danny felt a great lurching in his gut. This wasn't right. It took a moment to register. To click. Lanor wasn't by his side as he should be. He was admidst the flames and they were growing and consuming. And this wasn't right.
He was frozen, his eyes captured in Lanor's. Disbelief. Confusion.
It was all Danny could show. It was all he felt. For a moment.
Then his chest heaved, a great aching cry escaped, and he was running.
No no no no no no no. His running steps beat the pleas into the ground. The fire was too close. Close to consuming him. Danny didn't care. He could only see electric-blue. He could only think on that single track. He just knew that he had to reach him before...
"Hold him, hold him! (He won't make it) Hold him!" We can't loose b... "Frank!" "Danny! Please!"
Hands were restraining him. Why were they holding him back? He needed to get to Lanor! Couldn't they see that?
He strained and strained against the hands, never once looking away from those blue eyes. "Lanor! LANOR!"

Loki had the boy almost as soon as he had started running. She had cried to Azareal to help her. For once they were not working as a single entity. Even with the two of them, they could barely hang onto him. He was writhing in their grip. And Loki didn't blame him for it at all.
Danny was screaming. He sounded as if he was in agony, as if he burning with Lanor. She supposed that in a way, he was. So desperately, she wanted to just let him go. But she knew that they would lose both of them. She couldn't do it.
So she looked at the agonised boy with a blank face as she drove her knee into the back of his, sending him to the ground. And she looked back at the others with the same blank expression. A warning, of sorts. And inside she was naught but turmoil and pain and anger. But she wore that blank face like a mask. She closed her eyes. Azareal watched on, his face just as blank as hers.
And all the while Danny was screaming. On his knees. His screams and begging were deafening. Let me go....PLEASE. Lanor! No! Let me GO! ...
..
Lanor?
.
I love you.
Oh how desperately she just wanted to let go...

The flames devoured, welcoming him ever so warmly, the forever beginning embrace of death. Lanor's sense of time, of self was lost to him. He didn't know how, or what occurred to get him where he was. He didn't know what was happening. Too fast, too soon he felt his body fading away from him. His mind was in confusion, but the pain did come. Burning away any other thought.
He was... dying. Plain and simple, that fact was clearer than any other. Forcing it's way past the pain. He was dying, yet nothing could ever overcome the great sadness of leaving Danny. It followed into loneliness, carving itself into his mind. For he didn't know what was to come. Even in his last seconds on this earth, Lanor held on to that happy thought of Danny, hoping that one day he would meet him again. The voices said as much, screaming at him. Wanting him.
In another time and place. Two souls reuniting. Lanor couldn't bare not too. It ached and dug into his skin.
"...Danny." Je vous aime
It was nothing more than a goodbye. As his once indestructible body incinerated before their eyes. He was nothing now. His remains but dust upon the ground.

"No.." Isabella stuttered out, her voice thick with sorrow. Breaking the silence that hovered over her, as the atmosphere grew. Rain belted down, as the wind howled out. It seemed right. That even the gods thought this death unnatural. Isabella just couldn't take her eyes away. Trying to disbelieve the truth right in front of her.
She didn't mean to start shaking, but her body was, despite herself. Her violet eyes still huge with the impact. His death was quick, but so painful. So utterly horrifying.
Then an undying need grew into her mind. Causing all else to pause around her.
Danny.
She had failed Danny, it was all her fault. She needed him to understand that so that he wouldn't take it out on himself. Danny deserved to have Lanor alive with him forever, and if only. If only she... Isabella flinched. she wouldn't look at him. She could hear his agony, his complete heart out for the world to see being broken. Shattered.
Lanor how could you?
Still she could not look at him.

Evie closed her silver eyes. Begging silently that she had not seen what she did. It didn't work, she saw the smoke was there, the smell... It was stinging her eyes. Making them water, in which she was unsure if it was from the tears or pain. She was momentarily stunned. Taking her eyes from the devastation, Evie studied the kid under her protection.
He had watched it all, she realized. His once innocent violet eyes filled with tears. Pulled on Evie's heartstrings. Evie knew, he knew what this meant, he knew nothing would be the same after this, as he watched Danny and Bel.
Evie and Lelouch had never seen Bel look so terrified in their life. Danny... Danny looked absolutely broken. Evie just couldn't handle the look the kid was giving out. A mournful look for his lost friend. And the fact Evie didn't think he wanted to see something like this again. Reminding him of the unwanted memories of his parents death.
Why? Why, did it always end in fire?

A clapping noise started, growing louder with each step Alec took closer to them. Taking a step beside what use to be a flaming inferno, Alec stood in all his glory. His clapping stopped. With Dmetri beside his form. While Alec held an almost gleeful expression, Dmetri held a blank, calculating look. Both men knew their enemy. Yet both men had underestimated them in the past.
"Why so sad, Isabella?" Alec stared to say, while turning his head to each individual , "Danny?" He smiled. His left hand placed above his sword on his hip. Alec wasn't done yet. He knew he could cause more damage here today.
"After all," Alec started to point out, while turning back to Isabella. "You knew this would happen." Alec taunted, a smirk growing at the edge of his lips.

With sadness clear in her eyes Loki released her grip on Danny's arm. Azareal did the same, and the boy slumped forward, sobs shaking his body. She no longer worried about him getting hurt, physically at least. She looked at him for a moment, something flickering behind her eyes, then pulled him to his feet. Azareal lent close to Danny's ear, whispered something to him in that oddly accented musical voice. The two of them ignored Alec. For this moment at least, he wasn't enough of a threat for them to leave Danny's side.

He was choking. He needed no breath, and yet he was suffocating. This unfathomable weight was cruching his chest. He could feel it, splintering his ribs, powdering his bones.
He was sinking. He was disappearing into the ground beneath him.
He was bleeding. His heart was broken and leaking. He was drowning in his own blood.
He had no more strength in him to scream. He could only choke out dry sobs that made his body convulse.
And then he was on his feet. It barely registered in his battered mind. He leaned against the person who had made him stand. Let his weight rest on them. He knew he had no substance of his own, he couldn't possibly support himself.
It came rolling of him in waves. Despair. He couldn't control it. They were small lapping waves at first, washing over everyone around him. And then was the tsunami. The curse, his only protection, came too late. It engulfed him, and all surrounding.

There was a bitter satisfaction in watching the blood-sucker die. He was glad he was still in his wolf-form, or he might not have been able to keep from laughing. And, in his situation, laughing would not be the wisest option, especially with Isabella here. She was hurt, he could see, and he wanted to comfort her. It wouldn't do to lose her simply because he couldn't control himself. He moved so that he was at Isabella's side, his fur brushing against her leg. Critically he watched from beside her as the dead blood-suckers pet put on what he had to admit was a rather good show.
Again, he had to remind himself to keep it under control as the alpha-leech spoke. This particular parasite was getting on his nerves. Kaiden was growling, poised to attack when it hit him.
Pain. Unbelievable, intolerable pain
What was this?
He wanted to curl up and disappear into nothing. He wanted to cease to exist. Right then and there.
What were the damn leeches doing to him?
He had never known sadness like this. It was crushing.
Kaiden ran to the trees, switching from wolf to boy as he did so. Seconds later, the sound of him being violently sick could be heard in the clearing.

"Why so sad, Isabella?"
Isabella stared at Alec, her face hidden behind a mask. A mask she had skillfully made long ago, when things became just too much for her to handle. It was a safety mechanism, she needed it, just as much as she needed to get away from this place. To crawl away into a deep hole and never return.
"You knew this would happen."
Still that didn't stop the rest of her body reacting, her head falling down in shame. Her ears ringing, the deadly sound of her heart beating a million times more than it should. Isabella knew he was taunting her. Seeking someway to hurt them more than he had already, and it seeped into her heart. Forming sharp pins to shred it apart. She had known.
If it wasn't for the unexpected company by her side, Isabella would of lunged at Alec. She had forgotten Kaiden was here. Had helped them. It made a small smile form on her lips. Just knowing that he was here Isabella made no movement though, her heart stopping in it's tracks. Something was happening.
Turning, Isabella's violet eyes finally looked upon Danny. Her mouth open, the beginning of words lost as the despair hit her hard. Sending her down to her knees. Causing her head to explode with pain. Her hands moved to her head. ...No, Danny...
Then more came.
Guilt, Helplessness, The utter sadness.
So strong, Isabella felt her insides start to bleed. Her heart constricted, making Isabella clench her teeth shut. So that she wouldn't start screaming out in pain. It worked for only a few seconds, then her mind gave way to the darkness of the curse, with it her control over her mouth.
Across the field, an agony filled scream was let loose. Piercing the area with the sound. Engraving it with it.

Evie took hold of Lelouch, pulling him into a hug. While her magic surrounded the both of them. Protecting them from the onslaught of dark magic that sweep through them. It wasn't enough, but it was good enough from how far they were from it. Evie could just blank her mind. Cover it with enough magic to stop it affecting her, as with Lelouch.
Although, she felt the despair rise in her. The lose of emotional control as she couldn't stop herself from crying. She didn't notice Lelouch at that moment, too caught up in trying to control herself. It lasted only a brief few seconds. As her sensative magic rose with the dark magic, blocking it.
It was only than that she heard a scream. The voice familiar, but not quite like this. And felt the boy in her arms vanish. Running off toward the scream. As if he had a mission. It was not long after him that Evie followed. Not sure what she'd find.

Alec stepped back, clutching his chest with his right hand. His eyes widening once he realized what was happening. Just why he felt a hopelessness fill him.
It was disgusting.
Spitting onto the ground, Alec tore his eyes from the ground to the one responsible. The one who made him feel like he was sorry. Like he regretted ever being born. It was sickening.
Pathetic...
Narrowing is dark brown-red eyes, Alec began laughing. Noticing that Dmetri was still standing, appearing as if he wasn't affected. Alec knew it was his training. His utter devotion to ridding himself of his emotions, that made Dmetri like he was. A killing machine, much like himself.
Yet, he was affected. He could feel the pain inside of him, growing, poisoning him. He continued to laugh.
His laughter hid the fact that he was too afraid to cry.
It was pitiful. Alec didn't even know he could even feel this way.
"Stop." It was said much like an order. Like in the old days, when he and Danny were together in small groups, training. He wondered if Danny would obey. After all, it was the word they used when he started acting like he was.

Loki had heard of Danny's curse, but never had she felt it. Never had she gotten in its path. As it hit her, she let out a small, pained gasp. Behind her she could hear Isabella screaming, and she understood. The intensity of what Danny was feeling was heartbreaking. She wondered how he could just stand there like that, his body shuddering violently.
Beside her Azareal grunted, when she looked at his face it was pained. Loki let her arm snake around Danny's shoulders, holding him tightly, as if through this touch she could take away his pain, as she so wished to do.
Azareal met Loki's eyes for a fraction of a second, an unspoken message passed between them. Then, unexpectedly, he pulled the boy into a tight embrace. His lips moved quicklly against Dannys ear. His voice was less than a whisper, his words meant for Danny alone. As quickly as Azareal had grabbed him, he let him go, with a push on his back.

He couldn't see. It was as if someone had blindfolded him. He could barely feel. Though he noticed when strong arms were around him. But the dark blanket over his mind didn't allow him to be curious.
It was only the words that cut through. "Go, boy. I am sorry. Leave this place."
Yes. Go. That felt right. He wanted to leave. He needed to get away from here.
And then he could hear. A scream. In his head. Outside of his head. The curse was still lapping.
"Bella" He looked at her. He couldn't see. But he looked at her. Her face. The only thing...
And then he was gone. He was running, his curse following him, leaving the others. He was drowning. He was suffocating. He was burning. He was running.
He would disappear.

After agonising minutes, the pain lifted. Kaiden was slumped on the ground, shivering. He lifted a hand and wiped his mouth.
It took only seconds to compose himself. Finally. He strode from the trees confidently, his expression smug. Kaiden made a beeline for Isabella. He had heard her screaming before, but he couldn't do anything about it.
"Isabella" He said comfortingly, from behind her. He reached out and wrapped his arms around her. He cared little for the others. Only Isabella mattered to him.
