"Shhh baby girl. I am all right." Aaron said, his voice vibrating from pain.
"No Aaron, leave and run away. This way, both of us would be captured." Kizy said, trying to move, but it only made Aaron groan from pain.
"Don't move." Was the only thing he managed to speak.
But he could feel that the professor's n were near to him, and would catch up with them anyti soon.
Thus, without any option remaining, he ran behind a huge tree, which was covered by three huge rocks beside it.
He gently placed Kizy between the rock and tree, making it unable for others to see her, unless they would co and search for her.
"Go run now." Kizy said, thinking that Aaron was leaving her, and running away.
For a second, she felt a mixture of emotions.
Though she didn't want to be captured and brought back to the Imperial Nation, she knew that her condition would be much better from Aaron. She could not even imagine the amount of pain and torture that was inflicted upon Aaron for the past few weeks.
Though she hated Aaron, for harming Markus, for planning grandpa's death, for forcing himself upon her, for all of his other bad deeds, she never wanted him to fall into the professor's hand.
Thus, even now, when she thought that Aaron would leave her behind and run away, she wasn't feeling bad about it.
"Don't make any noise. No matter what you hear, just stay quiet." Aaron said, placing his index finger over her lips, while with the other hand, he gave back Kizy's gun to her, placing it upon her lap.
"But Aaro-" Kizy was still speaking but Aaron sushed her.
"I love you." He said, his index finger still covering her lips, while he bent and hugged her as gently as he could, tears visible in his eyes.
Kizy could feel that his voice was breaking at the end, as if he was about to cry. She was about to touch his blurred face, when his finger left her lips, holding her hand gently. He caressed them, before finally going away, leaving a confused Kizy behind.
"Aaro-" She was about to speak when she heard hurried footsteps approaching her and shut her mouth, rembering what Aaron had told her.
She just held her right shoulder with the left hand, trying to keep in place as much as she could, while resting her head on the tree bark behind her, hoping they wouldn't catch Aaron and soone could rescue her.
And the worst part about this was that she couldn't see anything clearly, making her unable to do anything about her own situation. Not being able to do anything and remaining helpless - this was exactly the feeling that she never liked, but she had no way out right now.
'Will Markus be alright? Did Aaron also save his life like mine? Maybe Aaron didn't truly change, but was trying to help us from the professor.
But he hates Markus. Aahhh! Hope this thing is sorted and over soon. I just wish that all of us are safe.' Kizy thought, no more hating Aaron.
She could see that Aaron had already planned their escape from the helicopter. They had landed exactly in a relatively safer region, with minimal scratches.
After that, they were running towards the base direction, where he was sure that Markus's n would be waiting. Now that she started watching all these scenes from a different point of view, she could see that Aaron didn't plan this to obey the professor.
Instead he was doing everything in his power to not let the professor succeed with his mission.
She was still thinking, praying that he would reach a safer place, or et Markus's n and bring rescue, when she heard a man speak.
"Look he is sitting there." The man said.
Aaron, who was supposed to run away, had run in the wrong direction purposely, to make the n go away from Kizy.
But after running for a few steps, his leg could no longer sustain, making him fall on the leaf covered ground.
He turned back, and was happy to see that he had sohow managed to walk at least fifty steps from the place where Kizy was hidden.
Though he couldn't save her till the last, he could at least misguide the n and stall them, giving Markus's n enough ti to reach here.
With this thought, he closed his eyes, a sad but satisfied smile visible on his face, especially rembering the last monts he had spent with Kizy, her warmth still lingering on his hands, her sll still present around him.
'Wish I would be born again. But then I want you to love and only . A world belonging to only both of us, with no one to worry about. A world where we could spend an entire life together, the way we spent our few days, while growing old, and breathing our last breaths in each other's embrace. Will you be my woman in the next life?' Aaron thought while sitting there alone, foolishly smiling, imagining their world together while awaiting his death, knowing that he couldn't survive anymore.
He had understood that she must have hurted her head, resulting in blurring of her vision, which was why she looked so confused and blank, trying to search his face even when he was standing right in front of her.
But this was also the reason why he had left her without any worry in between the rocks.
Kizy couldn't see anything clearly, thus she won't move recklessly that too with a sprained ankle, especially knowing that the professor's n were present around. Plus he had left the gun, wishing she would protect herself if the situation truly arose.
He was sitting leisurely, trying to rember and feel every single second he had spent with Kizy, when suddenly a dagger pierced his back from behind.
"Arrrghhh!" He shouted from pain.
"Why? Don't you wanna run anymore?" The man asked.
