Eurus maintained the steady calm pace to the hospital wing, placing the boy on the nearest bed. By this time, his lips were blue, and blood had poured all over his jacket and his hands.
Makira couldn't see Ark like this. Pulling a cloth from his pocket, he cleaned the boy's face in slow, fluid strokes. It was hopeless, but at least Makira would be able to give him a proper burial.
'Makira,' Eurus sent to her in a soft tone, 'There's something you need to see. Come to the hospital wing.'

Makira was sitting in the Common Room, reading, when she heard,
Makira, there's something you need to see. Come to the hospital wing.
in a soft, male voice.
"What?"
She was curious, naturally, and got up from her bed. She changed into a long red-black dress (coincidentally) and a pair of black sandals. Her medium-length dark chocolate hair was down, and her face was stear-streamed, as always.
She walked quickly to the Hospital Wing, and burst through the doors.
There, she saw a man with a boy next to him...It was
"Ark..."
She raced over to his bedside and felt his cheek gingerly. Cold. His lips were blue.
'No.... No, this can't be, I... no... NO!" She looked up at the other man, tears filling her sienna, amber bespeckled eyes.
"Is he....? Is my love.....?" She couldn't bring herself to say it.

Eurus wiped off his hands on the cloth, the white fabric now stained a crimson red. His eyes, an ashen black, looked at the tearing young girl. He pocketed the cloth, grabbing a sheet and draping it slowly over the boy.
"I'm sorry," Eurus said in a caring voice, stroking Makira's head. "I thought it right to return him to you," He left the sentence there, before turning his back on the two.

Makira looked back at Ark, in utter shock. The tears streamed down her face rapidly as she half-heartedly tried to blink the away.
She stared at his face, 'till the other man covered Ark with a white cloth.
Makira then slowly reached her hand out, and shakily slid back the white sheet to reveal his pale face. She cried,
"Why is it that I am alive..... WHILE MY TRUE LOVE IS DEAD?!"
She stared at Ark still and uttered to his killer, whomever it was, not knowing what she was saying..
"I'll kill you...
then all your friends....
then all your family....
I'LL KILL THEM ALL!"
Her eyes were full amber for those moments, then she regained her composure,and just sobbed, silently...
"Isn't there ANYTHING... ANYTHING you can do?" she asked quietly, shakily.

Aminta crept silently into the room. She knew she probabally shouldn't be there considering this wasn't her place or world but she came in anyway. She knew as soon as she walked past the door way that something was horribly wrong with Ark.
What's going on? she looked at Makira questiongly. She was Ark's love. She'd know almost better than anyone.... Right?
Suddenly the girl screamed, "KILL THEM ALL!" as soon as the vibrations hit her ears they went back, pinning themselves against her head. She still wasn't exactly sure what was going on.
Approaching slowly she pressed her wet nose to the girl's hand, begging for her to speak, to tell her what was happening, why Ark wasn't speaking or moving.

Eurus stopped, his boots not making a sound as he stared at the cobblestone floor. Of course there was something he could do. Something he dispises down to his very core. But why do it? All he had to do was walk away, not look back, and spare himself.
"Isn't there anything you can do?" The voice echoed in his head, the sound of the sobbing girl behind him making his heart feel heavier then before.
"f*** it," Eurus turned around and crouched down, looking the girl in the eye. "If you want me to bring him back, there's things you must know. He won't be exactly the same, hell is a place you don't forget, or brush off. He won't be completely human, because it's impossible for a soul to leave where he's gone."
"Do you understand?" Eurus said in a quiet voice, his black eyes burrowing into Makira's soul.

Billie had been once again wandering aimlessly around the school when she felt a wrenching pain in her chest. Something was dreadfully wrong and it had to do with Makira.
A growl in her throat, Billie sprinted to the Hospital Wing and almost careened into the wall trying to get into the room. The sight there stopped her in her tracks.
Ark.......dead? What? What's going on here?
Billie had a thousand questions, yet couldn't speak. She silently watched Makira as she talked to Eurus, and wondered what the hell was going on.

Aylen was walking down the hall minding his own business, when he heard a loud frightening scream. “I’LL KILL THEM ALL!!!” He froze...”Well, that’s something you don’t hear everyday...” he muttered. He walked faster, in case some mad axeman was stalking behind him. He passed the hospital wing...and gave a double take. “Hang on, Makira?” He changed his route and entered the wing. He managed to catch a glimpse of Ark’s bloody face before a strange-looking guy covered him up. “Holy...” he began, unable to finish. “He...you...what...is he...bloody hell...” (excuse the language)

Hearing a voice scream that they were going to kill someone, made Kasey rise immediantly from her seat and run out into the Wing, pulling her wand out on the way "What is going on?" she damanded as she came face to face to Eurus, Marika, Aylen, a girl who she hadn't met before and a wolf. Her brow furrowed in confusion, but then a pale blood soaked face caught her eye from behind Eurus' figure. Focusing her eyes in on the body behind him, she dropped her wand in shock "Ark?" she whispered. The blonde nurse was not close to the boy but she had treated him a couple of times.
Making her way over to the crimson stained body that lay under the crisp white sheet, the nurse looked at his pale face and blue lips "What happened?" the nurse asked looking from one person to the next. Clearly she was shocked and the presence of Eurus was not an exsactly calming thing.

Eurus stood at Kasey's voice, raising his hands to about head-level. "I swear I didn't do it! No wand!" he said in a panicked tone, acting as if she was going to blast him through a few walls.
"I'm on the good side here, trust me," Eurus changed into human form, his hair turning a more brownish-red, his eyes solid black. He only stood 5'4 in his human form, instead of his demonic 7'6.
Eurus regarded the crowd that had gathered and sighed, rubbing his temples. "I don't like doing this," he muttered to himself before turning back to Makira.

Kasey looked at Eurus as he protested against not having anything to do with the students death "I believe you Eurus" the blonde nurse told him simply as her face softened. "Do you have any idea who did this? Any of you for that matter?" she asked letting her bright blue eyes drift across the group.

Makira was shaking by this point. And people asking questions, she just... couldn't handle it.
Then she registered what Eurus had said. He could bring him back. Ark... he could be among the living! BE with her.. not be dead.... Be happy, alive... but.....
He said he wouldn't be the same... WOULDN'T be the same? How? What? Why? Hell... Why would he've gone to Hell? The Darkness...
Makira gasped at the thought of her love coming back more evil than before, possibly kill--
Killing her.
She looked at the wolf, just realising, again, that she wasn't alone. She shook her head at her, then looked up at Kasey, Aylen and Billie, and continued to shake her head.
"I hav-ve n-no id-dea..... I got called here, mys-self by... Mr. Eurus.... and saw h-him....." She still couldn't bring herself to say it, the tears still flowing down her sheet white face.
She turned and looked at the man Kasey called Eurus.
"Mr. Eur-rus, s-sir.. I...I-I..."
She slowly nodded her head.
"I want you to bring back my love."
That was the steadiest she's talked the whole time. She felt a part of her heart, soul... being was down in the Pits of Hell with Ark, and she'd give anything to have them back, even if he was evil.... Even if he could....
would..
possibly....
End her own life.

Eurus nodded to Makira, embracing her. "I'll try my best to bring him back unscathed," he whispered to her, cutting off a small lock of her hair carefully so she didn't notice. He walked over to the bed, staring down at the dead body.
Just another walk in the park...
"If any of you mention this to Kaiser, I will kill you all," Eurus threatened, sliding his leather duster off of his shoulders. He didn't want to wreck his jacket -- after all, it's already been through enough torture.
Dipping a finger in the blood that lined Ark's mouth, Eurus touched it to his tongue. He closed his eyes and shuddered inwardly. Cold blood always made him sick to his stomach.He slowly arched himself over top of the boy, his nose nearly touching Ark's.
Ashen bone wings spread from Eurus's back to the ceiling, the black feathers adorning the bones shivering. He gripped the lock of hair tightly, frowning at his current chore.
"Be back in an instant," Eurus muttered to Makira.
Before anyone could blink, Eurus pressed his lips to Ark's, the boys body crumbling into ash that ripped violently around the demon. The ash turned into whips of flame as it engulfed him. Pain shot through his whole body as he tried to stifle a scream of agony, but the fraction of a second it left his lips, he vanished.
I'm going through all of this, and I'm not even getting paid...
It was almost as if Eurus was walking blindly into a fireplace. A really, really big fireplace. He felt as if his entire body was being torn to shreds, strip by strip of flesh down to his insides.
Then, it all stopped.
Eurus opened his eyes, taking a long-drawn-out breath as he walked casually out onto the streets from what used to be an old bar.
Three shots fired from his gun into the closest creature to him, sending it to the ground writhing in pain. With a touch of his hand, the demon shrieked and faded into the dirt underneath his feet.
Closing his eyes again, Eurus focused on searching for Ark. A red glow encircled his hand as his body faded. He heard a small cry in the back of his mind. He fought to focus harder, coming closer until he knew he was there.
"Bingo," Eurus reached out in front of him, slamming his open palm into Ark's chest. The red glow left his hand, consuming Ark completely. Clenching his fist around the lock of hair, he took a handful of Ark's clothing and ripped himself back out of the hell he'd just stepped into.
Stepped into for the mournful plea of someone he didn't even know.
In what was almost hours to Eurus, it was mere seconds of time before Eurus reappeared, full demon form with Ark suspended in the air by his shirt. He quickly fell to the ground, dropping Ark to regain his composure.
"The Lycans did it," Eurus said in a hushed tone to Kasey, sliding into human form slowly, as to not have his need to puke increase. "He entered the tunnels, and they killed him in fear for the newly born pups."
With one hand holding his stomach, Eurus stood, dropping the lock of hair on Ark's unconscious body. "I don't ever want to go through that again for a long time." He looked to MAkira, grinning to a small degree. "He should be fine."
'Watch over him, he's no longer completely human. He won't understand, you must explain to him that it was the only way.' He said to Makira in her mind before taking off towards the door.
Eurus bowed his head to Kasey, pulling his leather duster over his shoulders and walking out of the hospital wing. The door closed behind him, and he collapsed to his knees, throwing up blood. Coming back was the worst part, it didn't attack you physically, but mentally through memories.
Why did I bother... Eurus stood and walked away, ignoring the urge to cry. He had gone through the whole suffering of the inccident seven years ago.
Anasti's murder.
OOC: Woo, ripping one's character through a knot-hole backwards is always fun. - -;;

Makira hugged Eurus back tightly before he went and did what he did. She just stood, watching, worrying, hoping, waiting.
Surprisingly it only took but a few seconds. Ark was returned, but looked unconcious. She beamed at Eurus and said, "I know that must've been something, especially for me, someone you don't even know, but I thank from the bottom of my heart, even if he comes back.... changed more than before." at her last words, she grimaced, but thyen looke dback at Eurus. "Thank you, again, Mr, Eurus. I am sincerely sorry, to, for any hurt I've caused you. I thank you even more for doing this for me: a girl you don't even know."
She heard his voice in her mind, again.
"I will tell him. If he doesn't try anything when he wakes up."
The thoughts of him murdering her entered her mind again, and she shook her head hard to try and shake them out.
She then noticed him take leave and resisted the urge to run up and hug him. She felt really bad for him, though.... going through Hell just for her selfish reasons..... and being someone who he didn't even know?.....
Makira fell to her knees at Ark's side once he stepped out the door. She stroked his hair gently and whispered, "Welcome back.... I'll explian everything.... I promise.."
A lone tear slid down her still pale cheeks onto his face. She wiped it away and smiled angelicly down at him. She was the picture of a Fallen Angel watching over the one she loved.
