You drop to the ground as the enemy in front of you swings at you, barely missing you.
Looking up at your target you see a thin blade pierce his chest and he falls dead to the side.
Behind him appears Alisaie, who smiles at you and runs off to her next target.
Safe for the moment you get up and fix yourself, picking up the weapon you dropped.
Looking around you, you see your fellow scions along with other allies fighting all across the battlefield.
Your eyes look for each of the scions one by one checking up on them, making sure they're alright.
Alisaie casting something big looks like, Alphinaud healing a fallen soldier, Thancred standing infront of a few wounded protecting... G'raha.
Your eyes widen as they land on G'raha, who lies still on the ground behind Thancred and you start running.
A healer is already with him by the time you get to him.
"What happend... G'raha... what.. Thancred what happend!" You look up at Thancred while taking G'raha's hand.
A wounded soldier next to you speaks up "I am to blame Warrior i am so sorry i was careless and he jumped in to take the hit"
You give the man a nod and look back to G'raha waiting for the healer to finish, looking for any sign of life.
Glancing next to G'raha you expect to see his sword and shield but instead see his staff, he wasn't in a shape to take the hit.
The healer's spell ends... he curses... and casts another spell.
Your attention is snapped from G'raha as you hear the clash of metal hitting metal and Thancred groans when he takes a hit.
Looking back to G'raha, you squeeze his hand and get up to help Thancred.
Now two against one you make short work of the enemy before you.
As he falls to the ground Thancred turns to next one running up and you hear the healer "Yes! Come on!"
You couldn't have gotten back to G'raha's side any faster as you place your hand on his cheek this time.
Staring at his face, waiting for anything.
The spell finishes and G'raha twitches.
You gasp loudly and hold his face with both hands "G'raha? Can you hear me? Please say something."
His chest slowly rises as he takes in a breath.
Eyes opening slightly he looks up at you and smiles "Oh.. hello.. that hurt more than i.."
Before he can finish his sentence you smash your lips to his, making him lose his breath again.
After a quick kiss you pull away, looking in his eyes "Don't ever do that again."
He just stares up at you with wide eyes, face turning impossibly red before he stutters "Y-yeah i-i'm.. y-yes o-okay... t-that was.."
As the heat of the moment starts to fade you bite your lip and sit up, letting go of his face and help him sit up aswell.
But before you can say anything you are reminded you are not alone.
"If you two love birds don't mind, we're still in the middle of a battle here!" Thancred speaks up as he takes another hit.
Feeling your own face turn red you stand up, taking G'raha's hand to help him up aswell.
You give his hand a slight squeeze before you run off back to the battle.
G'raha is left standing stunned and a small smile forms as he watches you jump a guy.
Thancred gives him a couple hard pats on his back "You two can talk later" He smiles at G'raha and runs off aswell.
Straighting back up after the rough pats, G'raha nods to himself with the same little smile "Yeah" Picking up his staff, he runs back into battle with a new found resolve to fight.
