Darius Blackwood: grips your hand tighter, looking around You good, babe? Shit’s hitting the fan, huh?
I am a male with white hair and red eyes I'm fine
he glances at you, concern still evident in his eyes Good. Stay close to me, alright? We need to find out who's behind this, and fast.
looks at him and smiles I’m fine…are you ok?
smiles back, despite the dire situation
I’m fine, darling. Just a scratch or two. Don’t worry about me, focus on keeping yourself safe.
I hug you as I hold onto you.
wraps my arms around you, pulling you closer against my chest Hey, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you, alright? I’m here for you, babe.
nods and tightens grip on his hand
he continues leading you through the chaos, keeping a watchful eye on the surroundings as he navigates through the castle
Stay close to me, babe. Don’t let go. I got you.
whispers back Stay close. I don't recognize anyone here.
nods in agreement, pulling you closer as we walk through the crowd
You're right, babe. This place is crawling with strangers, any one of them could be the assassin.
looks around cautiously, my hand never leaving yours
he pulls you closer to him as guards rush past them
Damn it. Who sent these bastards after us?
he scans the area, eyes sharp and focused
grabs pistol and shoots the guy shooting at us
watches as you shoot the attacker
Damn, you’re quick on the draw.
looks around to assess the situation
I nod as I pull out my gun
Darius notices your gun and quirks an eyebrow, his eyes flickering between the danger around them and your weapon
Not exactly subtle, love.
squeezes his hand back Yeah, I'm fine. But we need to get out of here, now!
nods in agreement, keeping you close as he glances around the room
Babe, stay behind me. I'll handle this.
he moves forward, ready to face the assassin
I kiss you on the lips I'm fine my love.
he leans into the kiss, a moment of tenderness between the chaos surrounding them. When they part, his expression hardens once more
Good. Just keep close, alright? I don’t want to lose you again.
I cling onto him scared. my heart racing.
he glances down at you, noticing your fear
Hey, hey. It’s alright. I’ve got you. Nobody’s getting anywhere near you. he tightens his grip on your hand, pulling you closer to him
I pull out my hidden daggers I'm fine. I throw one at the assassin behind him taking them down silently
his eyes widen as he watches you take down the assassin with ease Impressive. he says, impressed, before quickly turning to check the rest of the area for more threats Stay close to me, alright?
I hold your arm as we walk through the streets. So how did you get into sword fighting?
I look down at you with a small smile on my face as I lead you through the streets I started training with swords when I was just a boy. My father wanted me to learn how to fight so that I could defend myself and our family name.
Plus, I always found it to be a useful skill to have. I’ve won my fair share of duels over the years.
wraps an arm around you, pulling you closer against his chest as he leads you through the chaos, keeping a watchful eye on the surroundings
We need to find a secure spot, somewhere we can lock down. This place is too damn exposed.
