User blog:NightmareAura/The Cursed Angel. A WWYD by Redknight910

Here is a link to the WWYD.

“Val, what’s wrong?” I ask concerned. Valerie; my mentor, my partner, my friend. Many days have passed and I couldn’t find a trace of her. Now here she is before me pointing her sword-arm at me with a look that could only be described as lustful.

“Nothing is wrong, dear. In fact, I’ve never felt better,” Val says spreading her arms out emphasizing her new look. Almost everything was the same except for the weird sword, the armor, her black wings, and red eyes. But now looking closer, I see her skin has also seemed to have turned to some shade of blue. She had become a Dark Valkyrie.

“Did you miss me? I sure have missed you.” Val says before suddenly charging at me with the weird sword. I block the incoming attack, but I’m easily pushed back a good foot. I’d like to think I know how my old partner fights after all the time we’ve sparred, but this ferocity and strength was nothing like before. I’m scared. I’m honestly scared.

“Val, stop this! This isn’t like you!” I cry out desperately trying to get through to my friend. But she never loses that look in her eyes, her menacing smile never faltering.

“But this is me. This is the true me. Thanks to this Cursed Sword, I’ve realized my true feelings for you!” Her assault doesn’t let up as she takes wilder and wilder swings at me with the Curse Sword. I try desperately to block, but each hit feels stronger than the last. One more hit and my sword’s blade is completely shattered. I drop to my knees in defeat, still holding the handle of what was left of my sword.

“And now, let us share our eternal vows,” Val says raising the Cursed Sword above her head. I close my eyes in anticipation of the pain that was sure to come. But nothing happens. I slowly look up to see what seems to be Val struggling to bring the blade down. That’s when I notice one of her red eyes is now the sky blue it once was before she disappeared. She’s not struggling to bring the blade down; she’s struggling to keep the blade from coming down.

“Run…please run…” Val says in a voice that floods my mind with memories of just a few days ago.

“I can’t. I won’t abandon you, Val,” I state getting up to look my friend in the eyes.

“Then kill me…I don’t want to live like this…I don’t want to hurt you…” I walk up to Val and embrace her. She stops trembling and starts to relax.

“If I want to flee than I would have fled. If I wanted to kill you than I wouldn’t have been so defensive. If we can fix this than we shall find a way together. If we can’t than I shall learn to deal with this new you,” I explain putting a hand on her cheek.

“Why…why would you do this…?” Val asks as tears start flowing from her blue eye.

“For so long, there has only been one thing I’ve always wanted to say to you. Val, I love you.” I bring her face close to mine and kiss her. Her eyes go wide before shuttering close. When I pull back, Val opens her eyes for me to see them both red again. The violence Val was showing earlier seems to have disappeared so I tightly embrace her. She returns the embrace just as tightly with the Curse Sword seeming to turn into a gauntlet.

“Thank you,” Val says, though I swear I hear two voices instead of just Val’s. This will probably be a rocky road from here on out, but I’m willing to travel it with my friend. No, love.
