I Don't need help. Or do I?

Kala woke up and tried to free herself. She was so killing him when she got out of here. When she heard the door, open Nyx walked in with a plate and set it down. Kala looked at him then the plate and did everything she could to get away from him. She felt her panic as he came closer to her.

Nyx saw the complete terror in her eyes. Nyx removed the gag and sat down. "Kala you need to eat." He was tired she had been out of it for a few days before she woke up this morning. "No Nyx don't do this. Please don't." he turned and looked at her. She was scared to death right now. "Kala I'm not doing this to hurt you. I want to help you." Nyx grabbed the plate.

What he saw sent chills down his spine. "Nyx I'm begging you please stop. I can't..." he sat the plate down and moved to her. "Hey, Hoku look at me, baby. Talk to me please tell me." She was trying to get away not from him but from eating. "Nyx I...I can't." he saw her struggling to breathe as her panic took over.

"Kala look at me, baby. Stay with me." Nyx freed her and pulled her into his arms as she fought for each breath. "Kala talk to me please baby don't make me watch you die." She went still and he turned her face to see she had blood on her mouth and her eyes were empty. "Kala... KALA." She was breathing but she wasn't there anymore.

Nyx's sat next to her holding her. "Mother what have I done to her." She shook her head. "You didn't do this Nyx. Someone else did this to her." He looked down at her she was just staring off into space. Out of nowhere, she gasped as she grabbed on to him. "Please don't let him find me. He's coming for me he knows I lived. Please don't...he can't find Nyx I have to protect him. He is all I have left." Nyx felt her collapse next to him.

Nyx looked at his mom. "What the hell. She suffered like this to keep me safe. This is my fault no wonder she hates me." When someone touched the side of his face. "I never hated you. I wanted to protect you. I should have never come back." Nyx looked down at her. "Hoku who did this to you?" he saw how tired she was. "Ardyn and Ravus." She coughed as she closed her eyes

Nyx lifted her chin. "Kala if you let yourself die you let them win. How are you going to protect me if you're not here?" he saw her small smile. "It's not that easy Nyx. I was held prisoner for four years." She closed her eyes as she struggled for each breath. "Hoku please stay with me." She lifted her hand and touched the side of his face. "I have always been with you, my love." Nyx felt his tears fall.

Nyx saw her hand drop as she coughed up more blood. "Baby you need to eat. Please try for me." When she didn't respond he pulled her close. "Please come back to me. I need you. You're my hearth and home." Nyx felt her heart slowing down. "Fight baby. You're my Koa woman." Nyx held her close when he had an idea.

Kala woke up and was too weak to move. "Koa will you try something for me?" she turned to look at him. She nods weakly. "Can I ask you to trust me?" she smiled. "I will always trust you Nyx." He nods. "If you get scared tell me. Just know I will never hurt you." Kala nods as she fights to stay awake. Nyx walks over and gently lifts her head enough to put something over her eyes.

Nyx helped her sit up. She was so weak. Nyx placed a piece of fruit in his teeth as he leaned down and kissed her making her take the food without knowing it. Ten mins later she had eaten the plate he had made for her. Nyx remove the ribbon and smiled at her. "Nyx I'm tired." Nyx kissed her. "Rest baby." Nyx was worried about her and prayed he wasn't too late.

Nyx walked into the room when there was a loud bang Kala sat up real fast. Nyx looked at the wild scared look in her eyes. "Kala look over here baby." She was still weak up her fear was giving her some energy. Nyx saw her summon her weapon and attacked him. Nyx blocked her. "Kala stop." She stumbled as she moved.

He had no choice and grabbed her. "Stop fighting me baby please." Nyx heard the door open. "Nyx is..." Selena froze when Kala tried to attack her. Nyx moved to protect his sister. Kala stopped at the last min. she dropped her weapon. "Nyx...I'm sorry." She took a step back. "Selena go downstairs," Nyx says his eyes never leaving Kala.

She fell to the floor and looked at her hands. All she saw was blood and death. "You can never escape me my pet." She heard Ardyn in her head. "I will never be free from him." She says to herself. Kala summons her dagger and rises it. "Koa no." she felt Nyx grab her hand to stop her. Kala looked up at him and fell forward.

Nyx sat there his body was shaking. "Nyx is she okay?" he saw his mother. "She tried to kill me and Selena. When she realized what had happened, she tried to kill herself. Mom what if I can't help her?" His mom kneeled next to him. "The day you give up will be the day there is no hope for her. Keep fighting for her Nyx. She needs you as much as you need her."

Kala woke up one more tied to Nyx's bed. "Koa please tell me it's you this time." She saw a very warn out Nyx sitting in a chair next to her. She was fighting to stay awake, but nods. "What happened?" she choked out. "You attacked me and Selena. Don't worry you didn't hurt anyone. So far you have woken up three times and tried to kill yourself."

Nyx heard her cry. "Koa please don't cry." She wouldn't look at him. "Nyx let me go please I can't do this to you." Nyx turned her face and kissed her tears away. "No Kala. You have been through so much to protect me. Now it's my turn to protect you. Even if it's from yourself." Nyx looked at her and went to release her. "Don't Nyx not until I can stop these attacks. I don't want to hurt you or anyone else."

He places a hand on the side of her face and felt her go still. "Kala what is it?" she was fighting a memory. "Tell me what you see baby. Let me see the memory with you." Nyx's heart was being torn apart as he watched the woman, he loves fighting for her life in a battle he couldn't help her with. Nyx heard her scream out.

Nyx went outside as she slept. "Why are you letting her suffer like this. Hasn't she done enough for you? What kind of God abandons their champion?" he felt his best friend walk up next to him. "Nyx what can I do to help you?" Nyx looked at the man who became a brother. "Libertus I don't think there is anything we can do but pray she finds her way back to us."
