Chapter 108: I'll Always Be Here For You...

(Lucinda's POV)


This wasn't good at all! Aaron's being controlled by his rage again, Aphmau has been wounded, and everyone else has to make sure he doesn't try to kill Aphmau. It seems that a small amount of Shad's magic is still inside him. And it looks like the only way it can get taken out of him, is if he feels a strong emotion or if I can use magic.


"Lucinda!!!" Zane exclaimed.


"I-I don't know what I'm supposed to do!!" I exclaimed with panic.


"This isn't normal!!!" Kim added.


I saw a small crack underneath Aaron's left eye. A little bit of Shad's magic is still controlling him!


"Isn't he being controlled by his own anger?!" Kawaii~Chan panicked.


"It's possible!" Melissa exclaimed.


Ein looked at me.


"LUCINDA!!! DOTTIE!!! OTHER LUCINDA!!!" TRY USING YOUR MAGIC!!!" Ein yelled.


Me, Dottie, and Other Lucinda pulled out our staffs. We casted a spell to try to removed the little amount of dark magic inside Aaron. Orange light glowed and zapped out of my staff, blue light glowed and zapped out of Dottie's staff, and yellow light glowed and zapped out of Other Lucinda's staff. All three beams of light hit Aaron. The spell didn't take any affect.


"NO!!!" I exclaimed.


"THAT SHOULD HAVE WORKED!!" Other Lucinda cried.


"IT'S GOT NO AFFECT!" Dottie yelled.


Everyone else started tearing up. Aaron screams.


"AAAAAGHHH!!! LET ME GO!!!!! I NEED TO FINISH WHAT I STARTED!!!!!" Aaron screamed.


"This isn't good." Maria said.


"Not good at all!" Rylan said.


"He needs to calm down!" Daniel exclaimed.


"Aaron, please!" Garroth said.


"CALM DOWN!!!" Erika said.


"This isn't you!" Other Aphmau said.


"Stop getting mad!" Other Garroth exclaimed.


"Please!!" Other Aaron said.


I turn around to see Aphmau walking slowly towards us.


"He.... needs... to smile...." Aphmau said weakly.


She's losing blood. Lots of it. I called out to her.


"APHMAU!!" I yelled.


I heard Aaron scream. I turn around and he glares at her.


"YOU.... YOU WILL PAY FOR EVERYTHING YOU DID TO ME!!!!" Aaron screamed.


"Aaron..." Dottie mumbled.


I look at Aphmau.


"Aphmau.... the spell... it's not taking affect! It—" I cried out.


"LET GO!!!! I WILL KILL YOU!!!! YOU NEED TO PAY!!!! I SHOULD HAVE FINISHED YOU FROM THE START!!!!" Aaron roared.


"AARON, PLEASE!!" Kawaii~Chan cried.


"Let.... let him go.... let him come to me." Aphmau yelled weakly.


Aaron hyperventilates aggressively. That's when he got his left arm out of Kawaii~Chan's hands and his right arm out of Melissa's hands. He kicked them both to the ground. I went to Melissa's aid and Zane went to Kawaii~Chan's aid.


Aaron ran for the purple sword. He picked it up and charged at Aphmau, screaming like a beast. Her arms spread out wide like she was hoping for a hug but had a sad look on her face.


"I HATE YOU!!!!!" Aaron screamed.


He made a massive cut in Aphmau's left upper arm.


"I HATE YOU WITH EVERYTHING INSIDE ME!!" Aaron yelled.


He then made a small cut in Aphmau's left thigh.


"SOMEONE AS WORTHLESS, HOPELESS, USELESS, AND PATHETIC AS YOU!!!!!!" Aaron yelled.


He then makes a medium size cut in Aphmau's torso that went from the left side of her pelvis to under her right breast.


"YOU ARE NOTHING COMPARED TO ME!! I WISH I HAD NEVER MET YOU!!!! YOU NEVER MADE ME HAPPY!!! I NEVER LOVED YOU!!!!" Aaron screamed.


He then makes a cut in Aphmau's chest that went from her right breast to her left shoulder. Cutting over the scar in the middle of her chest. The same circle shaped scar she got back at Starlight.


"JUST DIEEEE!!!!!!!!" Aaron roared.


Aphmau coughed up blood, but she was still standing.


"Please.... just.... smile...." Aphmau said weakly.


She walked over to him.


"STAT AWAY!!!! STAY AWAY!! STAY AWAY!" Aaron screamed.


Tears swelled up in his eyes. He tried to swing the sword at her but she hugs him. He drops the purple sword. He stood there, frozen, arms slightly out on either side of his body and a concerned look on his face. Tears fall from his cheeks.


"I'll always be here for you.... FC...." Aphmau said.


He softly hyperventilates. Hot tears continue to fall from his face. The small crack on his eye faded and his blood red eyes reverted back to their normal black color.


That's when I have a vision.


~~Vision~~


I was in a room. A vacation room. Aaron was lying down on the bed. He got up and looked at his phone. He got off the bed and walked out the room. I followed him.


After some walking, he arrived at Starlight beach. He walked around and he spotted Celestia. She runs over to him and he pats her on the head. Then he spotted someone. It was Aphmau.


She stood up and saw Aaron who was just about a few feet away from her. A moment of silence was in the air. She reaches her arms out to him, asking for a hug.


He runs over to her and hugs her. The wind blows in the air. That's when I begin to have more visions. One of Aphmau and Aaron at prom, one where they kissed at her old house during high school, one where the kissed at A-Con, one where they kissed on the Love~Love Paradise Cruise. One back at the high school during our time in Lovers Lane.


"Aph, I love you." Aaron said.


Aphmau cries.


"Aaron.." Aphmau said tearing up.


The two hug. I then have a vision of them hugging at the lodge, one where they hugged in the woods after Aphmau got taken off the forever potion, one where they were hugging on the Celestial Cannon, one where they hugged after Aaron got his memories back, one where they hugged after Aphmau got back from her adventures with the Deimos boys, one where they were with Keori and Hunter, and lastly one at Starlight Wonderland during the proposal.


"Aphmau, will you marry me?" He asked.


Aphmau tears up.


"YES!!!" Aphmau cried out.


The two hug and the kiss each other. My visions end.


~~Vision Ends~~


I come back to reality. I saw the look of pure dread and horror on Aaron's face. Tears continued to fall from his eyes. His ears and tail sink down.


"Wh— Wha... what have I... done...?" Aaron asked.


I'm assuming he was aware of what was going on while he was possessed by Shad. He cries. That's when Aphmau falls to the floor, some blood under her chin. Her eyes were as grey as a dull building. Aaron stands in shock in realization of what he's done.


He hyperventilates and screams out her name.


"APHMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!" Aaron screamed.


He breaks down into tears and kneels down at his girlfriend's unconscious body.


"SHE'S NOT BREATHING!!!! SHE'S... NOT... BREATHING!!!!!" Aaron cried out.


Everyone ran over to him. So did I.


"AARON!" Kawaii~Chan exclaimed.


"P-PUT PRESSURE ON HER!!" Melissa exclaimed.


Aaron glared back angrily and Kawaii~Chan and Melissa backed up just a few feet.


"NO!!! DON'T TOUCH HER!!!" Aaron screamed.


He bursts into tears, eyes filled with dread and guilt. Drops of tears fall onto Aphmau's cheek.


"HOW COULD HE?! HOW COULD HE LET ME HURT.... HER.... HE.... MADE.... ME DO.... ALL OF THOSE.... HORRIBLE THINGS!!!!!!!!!" Aaron cried out.


He hyperventilates.


"HOW?! WHY?!?!" He questioned.


Other Lucinda steps up.


"Stand back." She said.


She casts a spell to prevent anymore blood from leaking out. Then she casts another spell to lift Aphmau's unconscious body off the ground as a yellow light glows from her staff and hits Aphmau's body, lifting her into the air.


"What did you do?!" Other Aphmau asked.


"This will keep her from bleeding and buy us time. We need to get her back to Phoenix Drop and get her tons of medical attention!" Other Aphmau exclaimed.


The doppelgänger trio walked off with Aphmau to the Nether portal nearby. Aaron tried running over to her but Melissa and Zane held him back.


"NO! NO, PLEASE, PLEASE! PLEASE DON'T— DON'T LEAVE ME!! PLEASE, PLEASE!! DON'T, LEAVE, ME!!!! DON'T.... PLEASE!!!" Aaron cried out.


I cant imagine how he feels right now. So much guilt and sadness. I hope Aphmau recovers fast enough. Aaron's probably gonna have nightmares for a little bit but I hope we all can recover soon before we can head home. The potion that brought us here is wearing off in a week.


"Aphmau... please be okay...." I thought.
