cerberus catches up and sits, waiting for his sister to do something.

she stands atop cerberus' middle head, athame in hand " i have sworn by nyx herself that if any harm should come to my mate by ANYONE be it human or demon, friend or for stranger or family. that i will sacrifice them upon my altar. YOU WILL DIE TONIGHT YOU PATHETIC WASTE OF LIFE!" she roars as her horns become larger and slightly curled.

she sommersaults off of her brothers head and lands on all fours next to ed. she hisses at the demon "take him to my altar. bind him. i want him to know pain when i kill him" she commands as she looks at ed and at his wound "ed, can you hear me? nod or...or something....." she whimpers.

Diwo returns to human form, and creates a thin rope of fire. He wraps it around the demon, who screams as his skin is burned. Diwo holds the demon up to Cerberus.
"Use your mouth, Cer, chomp down on him. But don't kill him. That's Nyx's job." Diwo snickers. He didn't like Ed. . . but he knew that Nyx did.

Ed could barely see Nyx through his nearly shut eyes. He could barely hear the sound of her voice. But he knew that she was there. Ed gives a weak smile, the effort put into the action more than anticipated. He was a mess, and he knew it. The blood had formed a pool beneath him. Four long and lethal claw marks across his chest, and four dagger-like wounds to the stomach.

Ed tries to speak, but the only thing that flows between his lips are trickles of red.

Diwo places a hand on Nyx's shoulder as he kneels at her side. "Hey, I just called for an ambulance. I told them that there was a stabbing. . . the ambulance will be here in five minutes." He then looks at Ed and frowns, "You're one tough human. . ." Those wounds were wretched. Diwo wasn't sure if a lower class demon would even survive those.

Blake had ran to montys workshop ed was his brother if he died so would Blake's humanity.." YOUR SON IS HURT LETS GO" he says to Michael who was working on weapons.." Monty I need your most advanced motorcycle NOW and Armor and weapons" he demanded

nyx nods at diwo as she lifts his head onto her lap and she begins to stroke his hair "shhhhhh.....it's ok..... i'm here" she mutters to him trying to be brave.

cerberus nods at diwo and bites on the demon, paralysing him.
"i'll run off now" he states gruffly through his other two mouths as he bounds off towards her house.

"I'm sorry. . ." Ed mouths the words as he closes his eyes, the tears resting in the corners of his eyes.

Diwo stays by his sister's side as the ambulance arrived. The paramedics were quick yet careful with Ed.

"Hey. He's going to be okay." Diwo whispers, pulling his sister into a hug.

Michael looks over at his phone as it rings, his expression of horror as Blake had entered the room. He picks up the phone and answers, "H-hello? . . .Dianne. . . you're crying. What? Eddy. . . alright I will be there as soon as possible."
Michael hangs up the phone and looks at Blake. "His mother just called. The hospital contacted her and informed her of what has happened. He is being transported to the ER right now."

"The boy's girlfriend and her brothers took care of the demon. So relax Blake." Monty sighs. "That's one thing you can't do as a hunter. . . is jump into action without thinking things through. You would have gotten there, only allowing rage to think for you. There's a lot more to being a hunter than you think Blake."

"OK ...but I'm taking your weapons and this bike" he says angry

"You're not a hunter yet, Blake. Take those and you'll be track down and killed." Monty tells him as he sets the cup of coffee down. A sign of him being serious.

"Monty. I'm going to the hospital. He'll be in surgery for a while. . . but I still want to wait there with Dianne." Michael says, frowning. Monty nods at Michael, who is quick to go to his car.

"You may go with Michael to the hospital to see your friend, or you may stay here and act like a little brat." Monty states, folding his arms over his chest.

nyx had opted to go in the ambulance with ed and sits in the waiting room in the realm between sleep and being awake, a blanket over her thanks to the staff.

she would stay here until he was ok.... and then....then she'd destroy every essence, every fibre of that demon....

Michael and Dianne, Ed's parents, are sitting in the waiting room. They rise to their feet as a doctor walks out, clipboard in hand. The man in the white coat didn't seem too relieved. Michael's expression is quick to change as the doctor gives them the information, and Dianne collapses in her ex-husband's arms, sobbing.

One of the nurses make their way towards Nyx. "Would you like to see him now?" She asks Nyx.

Michael and Dianne had already made their way into Ed's room. His mother is kneeling beside the bed and clutching onto one of Ed's hands with both of hers. Michael stands, looking at his son. His son who had just come out of surgery. His son. The one who he had left. The one who is now in a coma. A coma from an anoxic brain injury. Lack of oxygen. And low levels of glucose from the blood loss. There are machines hooked up to Ed, too many for Michael's liking.

"Damn it. Damn it. DAMN IT." Michael curses through his own tears.

nyx nods as she follows the nurse and gasps as she sees ed.
she ignores both adults in the room and runs to his side "oh god.....wh-why'd you have to b-be such a-an idiot....a-and leave t-the party?" she whimpers "i-if you had j-just stayed w-with me it w-wouldn't have h-happened" she sobs as she begins to cry.

Michael had walked to the other side of the room, his back turned towards them as he cried.

Dianne could hear the monitor giving off Ed's pulse. Each dragged out beep rang through her ears and settled in her mind, making each tear fall harder. She looks up to see Nyx, and asks, "You must be. . . Nyx?"

"y-yes ma'am. you must be h-his mother?" she says. oh how she wished she'd asked diwo along.... without ed she had no shoulder to cry on.

She nods at Nyx, warmly smiling. Dianne knew that look in her eyes. She stands up and wraps an arm around Nyx, "It's okay. I'm here for you. . ." She says in a comforting way.

Blake walks in..."ED ...NO" he cried

nyx smiles lightly at dianne. "t-thank you" she says, rather choked " i-it's all my fault.... if he hadn't felt the need to make t-that speech....he wouldn'tve walked out and this wouldn't have happened" she says laughing slightly "and it's funny, because he got their blessings thanks to it....." tears still spill from her eyes as she speaks.

"This isn't anyone's fault. The only one to blame is the one who had done this." Dianne whispers, her own tears still flowing. She then looks at Michael, who is still keeping to himself and crying. Dianne glances over to see Blake. She knew Blake very well, and his parents. His real parents and his new ones.

"Blake. . ." Dianne quietly calls out.

"blake!" she snarls " first you burn my room and now you have the audacity to show up when you should've been with him all along?!" she hisses "i've dealt with the man who did this to him, what were you doing huh?!"

"I'm here to see him ...you were with him you could have protected him
..Damn demon I don't care all of this demons family will pay but I'm just here for Ed right now" he says walking over to Dianne

Dianne tightens her grip on Nyx. "Now isn't the time for bickering." She says to Nyx in a hushed tone. "Just relax. . . for Ed." She then sits Nyx down at a chair. "You should get home and get some rest. Or sleep here if you wish."

Dianne then wraps her arms around Blake, more of her tears breaking free. "They don't know when he's going to wake up. They said it could be days to weeks. Even months. I-if he doesn't wake up within a month and a half. . . they want to shut him down."

Michael is back at Ed's side, a hand pressed against his son's face. An artificial airway and mechanical ventilation are being used, so Ed has tubes sticking out of his mouth and nose and neck.

" you think i didn't try to protect him?!" she screeches " I RAN OUT OF THE FUCKING DOOR TO FIND HIM!" she hisses "and you get no say in the fate of this blake! these are my kills! he's only your friend. he's my MATE! so shut up, sit down and take a fucking ticket!" she snarls, shaking now.

weather it was in rage or despair she was unsure of....both were equally as strong right now.

(Look up XD)

( i did XD even so she'dve still made the speech XD )

Blake begins to cry ..."he will wake up...I'll get odette to heal him" he says hopefully

Dianne shakes her head. "You know how Ed would feel about that. Let's just wait it out. Okay?" The way she holds onto Blake is just like a mother would to their child. But that's how Dianne thought of Blake. And Ed had always considered Blake to be not a friend, but a brother.

Michael looks over at Nyx, "Please keep it down. . . we don't want you getting tossed out of here for waking the other patients." He mutters. Michael was never fond of demons.

"do you not think pathetic boy that i would've given my own life energy if it would save him?" she hisses, sneering at blake "because if i can't save my own mate then i'm sure regina cannot either" she frowns "and he will heal..... he has to...." she sniffles.

"Thank you...mom" he says

"Of course, son." Dianne nods, choking on more tears. She pulls away and holds onto Blake's shoulders. "Everything is going to be alright." She warmly smiles.

She then looks over at Nyx. "You need rest. Michael. Take Blake home, and if Nyx also needs a ride."

Michael nods at Dianne, and takes in a deep breath.

"i- i think i'd like to stay here...... i can't leave him like this.... and i'm fine to stay awake ma'am i'm more nocturnal anyway" she states as she gets up to move her chair as close to ed's bed as she possibly can without disrupting machines or wires.

Blake leaves the room with Michael

Dianne grabs another chair and sits down by Nyx's side. As if under a spell, Dianne started to talk to Nyx about how Ed would act as a kid. When he would always get lost within his huge imagination. Some of the stories would have had Ed completely red faced out of emberassment.

While in the car, Michael looks at Blake and sighs. "You know that being a hunter is going to be a lot of work. You don't have any time for the one's you love. . . Odette will soon be nothing to you. Especially since she's a demon. . . you'll look at her differently after the council is done with you."
