He groaned as he fell to the ground, his weapons beside him. He reached for them and got back up, blood trickling down his forehead.

Before he could have any time to regain his footing however, he felt himself being bashed back into the mountain face. The Infinite blade left his hand and the back of his head smacked into the mountain. His vision was blurred and his ears ringed but as his mind cleared he saw Aki standing in front of him, his blade in hand and pointed at Zane's throat. Zane felt the cold steel of his little brothers blade touch his neck, and the trickling of blood that came from the broken skin at the tip. "This....is...over!" Aki told Zane with bated breath.
-
He met his brothers eyes, and stared deep into them. "Do it then."
-
Aki seemed to be avoiding eye contact with his brother. They darted away towards his blade rather then Zane's eyes. "You...do you have ANY idea what you put us through Zane?" He asked his brother.
-
He let out a sigh, his arms fell to his side. "I truly did want to come back for you and sis, but I couldn't find away back home....I tried for years in my spare time to find a way back."
-
"That doesn't answer my question!" Aki yelled at him. "Do you have ANY idea?! Can you even comprehend what it's like to have your own brother ABANDON YOU?!"
-
"I'm know....I don't have any good reason for why I left." He placed his hand on his brothers blade, gripping it tightly.
-
Blood drew from Zane's Hand as his brother held his blade at Zane's neck still. "Don't lie to yourself, Zane." Aki told him. "Don't lie to me. You left because you did have a reason. It was a girl. A girl who stole your heart. I suppose that is enough to make someone leave a child army." Aki said sombrely.
-
"That's only a reason, it's not a good one. I shouldn't have left, I should have just completed the contract then came home."
-
"Yes you should have. But we cannot fix the things we regret. Not once we have already taken action."
-
"Then take your revenge, isn't that what you're here to do?"
-
"YES!" Aki said as he looked at Zane. But Zane felt the twitching of his brothers hand on his blade. "I...I know I have to do this. I have to."
-
"Why? Why do you have to kill me?"
-
"Because you left! It doesn't matter if you could not come back! It is nightingale law!"
-
"But you are now the master of the nightingales correct? You could change them, make them better!"
-
"Do you ask the birds to change their flight paths? Or tell the wolves not to hunt their prey? Don't be naive Zane! What you are saying is..."
-
"Insanity I know, but not impossible. You can finally make the nightingale name mean something good!"
-
"Its name is already stained in too much blood." Aki told Zane in Denial.
-
"Nonsense, you can fix this damn clan. You know you can Aki!"
-
Aki looked down at the ground. Then towards his brothers eyes. "I...I suppose that-GAK!" Blood spurted from Aki's neck as the sound of a gunshot ringed out across the mountains. He dropped his blade, and grasped the slide of his now coated red neck with his hand as he stumbled and fell backwards. As he did, Zane saw a figure up ahead. They looked injured, and they seemed to be wearing a white camo for their attire. As the figure got closer, Zane saw their odd light blue complexion through the snow. Aki choked on his blood as he lay on the ground, the snow turning red around him as he breathed heavily.
-
"Aki no!" He held onto his brother, trying to stop the bleeding. Tears fell from his eyes and mixed with the blood. He looked up and glared at Falk with rage. "Why?! Why did you shoot him?!"
-
"What the hell are you talking about?!" Falk asked as he got closer. "He was going to kill you!" Aki continued to choke as blood poured from his neck. He looked up at the sky as he tried to hang on.
-
"No he wasn't! He couldn't kill his own brother! He was gonna change the nightingales, make them good!" He pressed on the wound harder, refusing to give up.
-
"What are you talking about?!" Falk asked. "What do you mean his own brother?!"
-
Edited by SDK Zane: 6/8/2017 10:08:56 PM"You just shot my brother!" He yelled with anger and sadness.
-
Falk's eyes widened as his mouth gaped. He took a few steps back as he looked at Aki and then to Zane. "No this...no..." he mumbled like he had gone mad. He stumbled around, and Zane saw Falk's legs become weak as the man fell down onto his ass. The Magnus of his daughter falling from his hand. "Z-Zane." Aki let out. His voice was gargled but Zane could make out his name.
