Part 13

*Setting: Alexie banged viciously on the metal door, desperatly wanting it to open and reveal to him that Midian was safe despite what he had seen. Stepping back he cocked his gun and fired at the keypad, the little electronic lock sparked and sputtered, but did not help him in getting past the door. Wiping his brow he cast his gun down and continued to pound on the door, bruising the bottom of his fists in the process...*

***

Midian: "A...lexie..."

She lifted her head up gently and looked at the door from which he was banging and calling her name from. Even though she was on the edge of death she still managed to gather her strength and fire a strand of red energy from her hand to the outter keypad. She then allowed her head to slink back onto the metal floor. The door hummed gently and slowly opened, crouching down Alexie eagerly scrambled underneathe the door, instead of waiting for it to open fully, and dived towards his lover. Cupping her head with his left arm he looked at her and her bullet ridden body and sighed, his head hung low.

Alexie: "M-Midian..."

Looking up at him with her ruby-red eyes she smiled faintly and raised her right hand to stroke his face, staining it with her own blood which was now forming a black puddle around her.

Midian: "Ale...xie...my...beau...tiful...Alexie."

A tear ran down his cheek and his lower lip trembled.

Alexie: "We gotta get out of here...i've armed the bomb...its going to blow any second!!"

Slowly she shook her head, more blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.

Midian: "Y-You go...I wo-wont make it."

Brushing a white strand of hair from her face he shook his head and sobbed.

Alexie: "B-But you can heal yourself!! You can heal!!"

Again she shook her head.

Midian: "No. If...If i do that...i'll be gone...forever...but if...if i stay...I-I can pro-tect y-you."

Looking down at her body his Heart was suddenly filled with terror, her wounds were severe...and she was dying...but, but he couldn't leave her.

Alexie: "I'll carry you out...i'll get you to a Hospital...you'll live...believe me...!! You'll live."

Midian: "No!! Dammit...GO!!"

She inhaled deeply and tried to turn her head to the door that led to the outside, but doing so caused her great discomfort. Still, she lifted her left hand up and pointed it into its general direction before sending yet another strand of red energy to the keypad.

Midian: "You...You go...!! Le-ave me. Please."

His eyes seemed to gush with tears that now flooded his cheeks, his lips trembled and with a defiant sob he screamed at her.

Alexie: "NO!! I LOVE YOU!! I'M NOT LEAVING YOU, MIDIAN. IF YOU WON'T COME WITH ME THEN I'LL STAY WITH YOU HERE AND WE'LL DIE TOGETHER!!"

Again a faint smile crossed her face as her Heart filled with warmth. But her smile soon disappeared and, gathering all the strength inside of her, she flung him behind her and towards the, now opened, door. Her body flunked back and hit the metal, but she cared little, all that mattered now was for him to escape unharmed. Clambering to his feet he attempted to go back to her, but yet again was pushed back, this time behind the door. And with a gentle 'i love you' she caused it to close, followed by her eyes...

***

*Setting: Alexie banged on the door, he wasn't going to allow her to push him away so easily, he didn't want to leave her, to burn, it wasn't right. He should be with her. The sound of another door further behind him, closing caught his attention and turning around he noticed Iraxx stood, waiting for the second door to close and as it passed the halfway point...
*Explosion*
The entire bunker seemed to shake, the door halted in its tracks and a massive roar came from were the Medical staff were. It was the bomb. The sound was so intense that it seemed as if the explosion was right next to him and so it would be, in a matter of seconds...*


***

*Setting: Light shone from Midians wounds and slowly three of them sealed up. Sitting up in her pool of blood she watched as the flames from the Eternity Crystals rushed towards her, the screaming of its victims seemingly being apart of the roaring fire itself. Holding up her hands she growled, her ruby-red eyes shone bright white, the veins in her body became more apparent, making her, now pure white, body seem like a road map with black roads. And the last strands of her hair finally turned pure white. Holding up both of her hands, her eyebrows narrowed and a low growl came from her throat. Concentrating she stared into the fire that was rapidly approaching and...with sparks and strands of electricity coming off of her, slowed it down...*

***

*Setting: The rogue Orkhid darted up the tunnel quickly, his leg muscles working overtime. His sadness was still lingering, but part of it had now converted to hatred and vengence and thus caused him to feel an overwhelming feeling to avenge his lover. He didn't know how long the door would stay jammed and wanted to get to Iraxx as soon as possible. Diving under the door he was confronted by the gunshots of the Orkhind Commandor...*

Alexie: "YOU BASTAAAARRRRRRRD!!"

He flung himself at Iraxx, knocking him to the ground and caring little about the three bullets which were lodged in his chest and left arm. Snatching the weapon from Iraxx's hand he cast it behind him and proceeded to punch the Orkhid. Right hook after left hook after right hook. The weight of the Orkhid was enough to keep Iraxx from moving too much and even though he tried to protect his face it did no good.

Alexie: "WHY!?! WHY YOU MOTHERF*CK!!"

He stood and grasped Iraxx's coller, he then flung him into the left wall and punched him in the gut before continuing to pound his face...

***

*Setting: The flames slowed to a Snails pace as she proceeded in slowing down its timezone, she knew she would eventually die but didn't care. It was better than the alternative. Her eyes shone more and she could feel herself gaining more power. Her hair blew back in the airtight room and as she concentrated ever-harder a formation of bright white lights began to form to her left. They were small, like particles, but there were loads of them. Kind of like Fireflies, but not. As they all clustered together the lights emitted a single small blast and formed a person. An Orkhid. A pure white Orkhid. It's formation was solid, so it wasn't a ghost or otherworldly apparition, but, a man. It's skin was white, the purest of whites. The suit that it wore was white. As was its hair, eyes and its whole entity. Stepping forwards it looked at her and cocked its head, it then turned to the flames that were slowly coming forth and smiled, a sinister smile.*

*Setting: With a scream of hatred Alexie flung the Commandor into the opposite wall, Iraxx hit it with a gentle 'umph' and slowly slid down. His face was bloody and cut, his eyes were bruised and he could hardly see. Blood was seeping from his broken nose and bust lip. With a sharp kick Alexie swung his foot into Iraxx's stomach, causing the Commandor to double over and cough viciously. Resting on his left forearm this gave Alexie another decent target, going to the right side of him he took a couple of steps backwards and then ran forwards, forcing his foot into the side of the downed Commandor who toppled onto his left side and coughed even harder. Turning back, Alexie stepped towards the gun that he had snatched from Iraxx. Feeling as if that would seemingly conquer all of his pain and torment that his Heart and Soul was feeling, he stared at the weapon and with salty tears streaming down his face and his Heart longing for his love, for Midian, he reached down and prepared to end it...*

***

*Setting: Crouching the being looked at the stern expression on the females face and watched as she caused the fire's timezone to slow down. Turning her head slightly to the left, Midian knew what the creature was and why it was there, still, she kept herself composed and continued to do her best in slowing the fire down, by now the fire was halfway to were she was and slowly decreasing in speed.
*Tisshoosh*
The hand of the white creature delved into her chest, white and yellow light surrounding its wrist as its hand slowly began to drain part of her Soul and power. Gasping she knew that she had to continue the process of slowing the fire down just a little longer, just to be sure that Alexie was safe from harmsway. But as the creature continued to delve into her, she felt her power slowly disappearing, felt her essence going into the drainer. The fire quickly picked up pace as her ability to slow it down went into the other. And knowing that she had two options of Death open to her, she chose the third...killing herself. She forgot about the fire, hoping that Alexie was sensible enough to get to safety. She also disregarded the creature that was draining her. Instead she quickly placed both of her hands on the sides of her head and with a final breath sent a massive volt of electricity straight into her brain, within milliseconds she was dead.*


***

*Setting: He pointed the gun at Iraxx and snarled viciously, his boot upon the Commandors chest he was now going to kill his lovers killer. Iraxx looked up, hopelessly, knowing that his love for his job and his want to get the upper hand over Adele had cost him his life. Closing his eyes he awaited death. Watching the Orkhids fear, Alexie slowly pulled the trigger...only to stop. A feeling started to creep into him...a feeling of dread...fear...it mixed with the feelings of hatred, anguish and revenge. Stepping back Alexie placed his left palm on his head and clenched his eyes shut as a shining white light burned into his pupils. He grunted. Staggering backwards even more. Images were flashing before his eyes. Images of Midian. Midian as a child. Being raped, raped by countless men. Tortured by Orkhid Doctors. It was as if he was seeing her memories and it pained him, he could feel them, feel it all happen. In milliseconds that had passed and new images took ahold of him, the images of him. He was being raped, beaten, tortured. Thrown away in the garbage disposal to die. He could feel these feelings again, feel the aches and pain of his childhood, feel the torment he once felt, but now a million times over...*

***

*Setting: Holding its right hand up to the fire the creature slowly started to slow down the flames timezone itself. Its eyes shone wildly as electricity darted around its body. Narrowing its brow it watched with pleasure and proudness as the flames slowed to a quarter of its original pace...*

***

Alexie: "NO...NO...NO...NO...NO...NOOOOOO!!"

His eyes opened, his iris' were completly dilated and thus caused his vision to be slightly blurred. Turning to, the now standing, albeit awkwardly, Commandor, he pointed the gun. Grasping the nozzle with his left hand Iraxx twisted the weapon from the strangely weakend Alexie.
*Boom*
The bullet cut through Iraxx's hand and exited through the back, clicks followed in rapid succession and Iraxx thanked the Gods that there were no more bullets left in the gun. Grasping his wounded hand with his right he pushed down on it, trying to stop the bleeding. But his holey hand was the least of his troubles as Alexie grasped his coller and flung him down the tunnel. Blood was running down his cheeks, now in place of his tears, making black stains that looked like his mascara was running. Moving like a Leopard he again dived upon Iraxx and pounded his chest with his right hand, cracks and squelchs of ribs and internal organs being pummelled seemed to rupture through the air.

Alexie: "YOU F*CKING F*CKER!!"

His words were growled like a Leopard roaring, grasping Iraxx's coller he then flung him underneathe the half opened door, he then stood, ignored Iraxx's screams and punched the keypad with his clenched fist, causing the skin on his knuckles to cut and bleed slightly. The door then finally came to a close, locking the Commandor in...

***

*Setting: Still focusing its energy but this time with alot more concentration the creature tried its hardest to continue to stop the flames from speeding up. But it seemed as if it hadn't taken enough of Midians power and as the seconds quickly passed the fire quickly sped up, until finally it had engulfed the creature itself. Shaking its head slowly in disappointment the being then looked down at the corpse of Midian which was now nothing but charred flesh, its own body however was still pure white and without a moments notice the creature dispersed itself into white light.*

***

*Setting: Turning, Iraxx watched as the fire sped towards him, his eyes full of fear and his face full of cuts and bruises he pushed himself up against the metal door, closed his eyes and screamed for his life...*
