It Lies in the Heart.

midnight saw her gase and responded with a shake from his head.
alas...young miss.... i cannot give you my flight. with this sickness i am barely able to keep myself up.
theseus turned '' it's true... normaly a man would have been dead by know but we don't know how powerful the effects are on dragons...
was your uncle the man we saw chasing you?

 

Len turend her gaze back at theseus "yeah and he's from oblivion"

 

again theseus turned his face....
midnight sighedforgive him, madam... he was raised as an orphan by the khonkhala.
they are an elite assassination group with unknown origins... they dumped him in a forest similar to this one to the wolves. he only 7 then but he managed to kill the wolves....to his sorrow... he didn't even want to do it.... but through all his training it happened by itself. for years he mourned the death of his beloved and soon we came to meet. he hates manking for how it treats nature... i hate it for i am seemingly the last of my race. because of them...

 

"i can't believe that your the last of your race dragon " len said "I met theseus that time that he killed those wolfes he actually saved me ,Len looked down,if it wasn't for him I'd be dead right now "

 

but for what purpose have i been born anyway?, theseus said bitterly.
those wolves are of the Cansachi... they don't kill thier pray normaly, midnight just overdid it.
they are known as a mixture between wolves and dogs. they are in fact very friendly...
theseus still hid his face,
''i don't belive they would have killed you miss len.

 

"hurt me or not you still saved me even if you haven't noticed " len looked at theseus "you rmember what happened don't you ?" she asked theseus

 

all to well he responded with a dark voice.
''the khonkhala train their students madly to master hand to hand combat.
i was the second best out of 300...
but they found out that my lack of controll could trouble their tactics so they dumped me like you dump your dead dog theseus said with rising anger...
i was cold and wet the first day.... it even rained...
i rested lying against a tree but saw you running a short while later...
he said to me that the girl was the most beautyful one in the world, midnight added.
i stood up to see what you where running from and saw the wolves.
one- by one i slayed them... i cried when i did it...
after it had happened you ran.... it became worse when i had to feed on the flesh of my victims...
but i always remebered you...len

 

"i mean after that..." ..len waited for a response but no so she answered
" my father took you in right after my mother died ,he cared for you as if you where his own child ....
we later became friends and had fun playing with Rachel when she was a baby ...but then you ran away"

 

he knows miss len.... but he doesn't want to hear it...
he was to ashamed.... he was trained to kill people such as you... he feared that the khonkhala would take controll of him and make him assassinate you. how are your parents by the way? theseus has feared the worst

 

She didn't answer him..."hay dragon what's your name ?" she wants to change the subject as soon as possible fearing that something might have happened to her father

 

the dragon scensed a slight amount of panic in her voice
''i am knon as midnight.... i am of the gulash tribe known for thier grace in air... but what you see before you know is nothing more than a sick dragon nearly unable to keep himself airborne.
why do you ask?

 

" I was just curious..i can't call you dragon forever ..hehe" she said nervously ,she looked at the small cabin window i hope he's all right ..
,she took her gaze off the window and asked "midnight do you think it stopped raining ?"

 

you ask me to leave?
hmmph!! theseus finnaly turned'' please miss len, midnight cannot venture outside anymore right now.
he then turned to the dragon. '' i think you should rest my friend... the dragon nodded and laid down on a dark corner of the house. theseus could hear the rain smatter to the grass.
''i belive it have not miss len...

 

" i didn't mean for him to leave ..i wanted to see if it stopped raining " len walked to the dragon and nealed to pet him " i'm sorry if i hurt your feelings midnight i meant no offense and it's getting late so you should get some rest.."

 

he let himself get pet and replied by nudging his head against her leg
theseus watched and then said
''miss len... you are the first ever to win midnights friendship...
you are truly amasing.... as i remember you...

 

len looked at the assassin " theseus why did you leave ?" she asked

 

because.i-...
he sighed and took a long deep breath...
because i love you...

 

"what??" len blushed "oh no" she looked down

 

day and night could spent... yet i would not sleep....
food tasted like ash in my mouth as i thought of you,
you would be all i cared about miss len...
i loved you so dearly that i fled to keep you safe, then... i cut my own throat....however...your mother found me dead but somehow healed me... she accepted why i fled but made me swear that i would never attempt to kill myself... at first i completely ignored her....
but when midnight got sick i kept going to find a cure....
you are all in my life now except for nature...and she has nearly perished....
my life is yours miss len, theseus said and bowed before her...

 

"my mom was alive when we thought that she's dead "tears filled her eyes ,
"theseus no need to do that i am but a mere pesent that works in a farm..
i'm not worth love or mercy ...theseus can i ask you something? ..
