Chapter 2

~~~~Achlys : the day of the incident

My eyes shot open as i came back up from the river. I looked up at the moon as my wounds closed up.

"I will bring ruin to this world ... Just like you've brought it to mine."

My attention was caught by the sound of rocks falling.

I looked behind me to find Vala blocked underneath debris. I walked over to her as i watched her struggling to breath. Blood filling her mouth she begged me for help.

I pulled her out of there and sat down with her. I looked down at her crushed leg and her open wounds...

She won't survive this if i don't help her.

I extended my hand towards her when she grabbed my hand.

"Don't ... I ... Don't deserve... It." She said struggling.

"You'll bleed out if i don't do anything."

"... Karma ... Got ...me back... For being ... Selfish. I accept ... That i lost." She whispered before coughing up blood.

She looked back up at me and asked me...

"Could you ... Please ... Stay ... With me... Until..."

I cut her off.

"... Yeah ... I'll stay."

A small smile appeared on her face.

"They ... Left you?"

"... Yeah. They did."

I sat down with her against the wall.

"I'm sorry ..." She whispered.

I chuckled before answering.

"Kinda late for that don't ya think?"

She chuckled back.

"Punctuality isn't my forté..."

The silence fell once again as the sound of falling debris accompanied us.

... Such a horrible place to perish ...

"Are you really ... Going to stay ...?" She asked all of a sudden.

I didn't look at her.

"I will. I'm not that cruel yet... Maybe I'm naive to think that the Vala i knew is still somewhere inside of you."

I looked back at her to find her observing me, blood dripping down her chin.

"Were those moments all an act as well?" I asked completely numb to her dying.

She nodded as tears streamed down her face.

"... When ... I said ... I love you... I meant it..."

I looked at her silently as she confessed to me once again.

"How saddening ... My first and last love ... Will forever be ... Unrequited."

I looked at the pool of blood forming under her.

"Do you want me to end it?"

She shook her head no as she smiled looking at the moon.

"I enjoy ... Spending my last moments ... With the person ... I love most." She whispered weakly.

She looked back at me.

"Can I ... Give ... A deathbed ... Confession?"

"Go ahead."

...

"I am actually from Piltover ... And descendant of The council... My ancestors were Called Jayce and Mel..."

My eyes Widened at her confession.
