Evan patted her back. "Its alright... its all over now. And I think Mercedes is kinda glad that you left, although she ended up seeing how hurt I was afterwards. Besides" Her eyes darkened. "Its not like I haven't killed either."
"You know... I never really gave up on you... not really. I tried to go out with other people but it never panned out. And I never felt strongly enough for any of them to... you know..." her voice trailed off.
Evan started shedding tears as well, although they were tears of joy.

Thorn thought back to when she and Evan had been stranded on an island where they had thier first kiss and then the year that followed befre she had killed her mother, "I............didn't know. i didn't know what you would think of me if i told you so i ran. i ran when i should have stayed with you." Thorn said removing her face from Evans shoulder gently lifting the dragon masters face to look at her before she closed the distance and kised her. it was a soft but firm way of showing to Evan that she still loved her. Thorn slowly pulled away form Evan breaking the kiss, is Lily safe?" she asked her voice little more then a whisper in the distance between them trying to keep her emotions and fear in check.

"She's heading back to the alliance base with Phantom and Buster." She said, smiling and laughing. She held her hand out to Thorn. "We should start heading back as well."

Thorns mind wasn't exactly working the way it used to she wanted to stay this was after all the temple of time, which gave her an idea. "actually Evan, wouldn't it be extraordinary if we found the dragon eggs the Black wings were looking for? it would be a good way for us to catch up without anyone trying to threaten me or try to tear me from you." Thorn said taking Evans hand but gestued deeper into the temple. "just think if we found the ery thing you have been searching for an answer for since you met Mir!" she said her mind already turning Scenarios in her head figuring out how best to get the things she wanted before she humured Evan by going back to the Aliiance base.

"Huh?" Evan was a bit confused. "I thought you said you didn't know where they are?"
Mir started growling. "What's wrong Mir?" Evan frowned.
"You know..." Evan said. "Maybe he's right. We should go back to the base first. We could always come back and search. Mir is big enough to carry both of us for quite some distance now." They stopped in front of a large ornate door.
All warnings and hesitations were gone from her mind. The excitement of what might be before her drove her actions right now. She opened the golden doors.

Thorn smiled when everything was going according to plan, the only thing that seemed to be throwing off her plan was Mir who seemed to growl as if he sensed something off about her. "is something wrong Mir? you never used to growl at me after i proved myself to the both of you years ago." she asked pursing her lips at the dragon as Evan opened the door to reveal a rather simple bedroom the room itself could have held atleast two dragons the size of Mir and the bed was more thenbig enough for Thorn and Evan if they chose to lay on it, Thorn gingerly pulled Evan to her kissing her again slowly backing towards the bed bringing Evan with her.

Evan looked kind of disappointed at the contents of the room, of course she was expecting some dragon eggs, the secret to Freud's success. So she could finally measure up to him. "I don't really think its the time to do this Thorn..." But nevertheless she let Thorn lay her onto the bed. Its covers were soft. She didn't think it would be very responsible to do this. She sat up "No wait... I think we should head back first... there's plenty of time for this after... We've waited 11 years Thorn... I'm sure a while longer won't hurt."

Thorn hesitated thinking about what Evan said they had been waiting eleven years but it was hard to wait any longer. "i can't promise you anything but i will try to wait a little longer......" Thorn said gesturing for Evan to lead the way back, "so..........what will we do now. will you help me raise Lily? i know she isn't yor responsibility but i could use some help raising her........" she said grabbing ahold of Evans hand threading her fingers into the dragon masters.

Evan recoiled, a bit surprised. Was that a proposal? "I'll... help you look after Lily I guess..." She said slowly, unsure to just how much she was promising. "Are you sure you're all right Thorn?"
She stood up, her skirt bouncing high above her knees. "We should report back to headquarters first." she said. "Mir will take us back. After that... I guess we can live in Leafre or even here, we could look for Dragon Eggs and decode Freud's notes!" She suddenly got very exited. She loved to research after all, some people called her stupid when she was little and in class but far from it. She was actually a very good student if she found something she is passionate about.

Thorn glanced at Evan an amused smile on her face, "honestly try to contain you'rself i am not the best with research but i can help as much as i can." Thorn said considering where exactly she would even consider putting down roots she had no true home other then the time she had lived in the secret garden with Lady Syl but she didn't want to take Evan into a place3 like Kerning city where they would have to watch all thier belongings including thier wallets. "Leafre would be lovely plus it would be nearby the Temple so we could go and check new parts daily untill we find what we are looking for." she said bringing her free hand up in thought, "you said that Mercedes was gone when i left. why would she be happy that i left knowing that it would hurt you?" Thorn asked confusion playin into her voice.

Evan's eyes widened, realizing how insensitive she had been. "Well.. I mean... if that's what you want..." She added lamely.
She got on Mir, and waited for Thorn to as well, then they took off.
"About Mercedes." Evan said "You know she never really liked you and always hoped I'd end up with someone else, preferably male. But I guess she kinda accepted we were going to be together in the end but was ecstatic when you left. Then she saw how I wouldn't get over you... she's not mad at you for leaving. Not really... I think she's more mad that we fell in love in the first place."
They touched down. Lily ran from Luminous's side to Mir, jumping up and down. Everyone started clapping. "There she is, the one who singlehandedly took down the Black Mage" Lady Sly said.
The festivities that night were joyful, celebratory. Everyone knew it was a premature victory but it was almost guaranteed. Almost all of the remaining commanders would turn on each other; insisting they be the one to lead the army. Many congratulated Thorn, even the Demon, although he was a bit grouchy at the loss of his brother.
Evan plopped down on her bed. It wasn't as big or comfortable as the one back in the temple though. Wonder where and why it was there in the first place? "I'm poofed" she announced. "Today is a big day."

Thorn had always enjoyed flying on Mir's back, but it got even better when she and Evan could be together it had been easily eleven years since she had last flown on Mir's back she gripped lower on Evans waist then she had before they had started dating feeling it would be safer to do so if they were together.
~DemonsBlades~ when the entire camp erupted into cheers and congratulating her on her victory she seemed reluctant to accept the sentiment but then she had seen Lily and picked her daughter up hugging her tightly. "Lily I want you to meet someone." Thorn said walking to stand next to Evan Lily only nodded to her mother preferring to keep silent. "Evan. I am sure you saw her earlier when Phantom had taken her out of the temple but this is my daughter Lily." Thorn said smiling at Evan as Lily just buried her head into her mothers hair feeling shy, "wow, if I am to believe what Lady Syl tells me she acts as shy as I did as a child." she said running a hand through her daughters hair before putting her down Lily in turn just clung to her mothers leg.
~later that night~ Thorn sighed heavily laying next to Evan after Lily had fallen asleep with the other children multiple guards were posted through out the camp to keep a watch on things the only tent that didn't seem to have any guards near it was the tent Evan and Thorn had decided to share, "I told Lily a lot about you, how you saved me multiple times when I would charge off by myself." Thorn said as Evan had plopped down. Thorns mind kept wandering through the events of the past twenty four hours that seemed like an entire year, it felt like old times being with Evan again after so many years. "so....." Thorn started to say befr=ore she started stumbling on trying to put her words together instead just groaning in frustration at herself planting her lips on Evans again, Thorn hadn't had very much to drink only one mug because everyone wanted her to make a toast to the end of the war.

"Ahhhh" Evan said, looking up at the ceiling. "Who's her father anyways? And won't he want to help raise Lily as well?"
Evan felt kinda hurt that she had sex with someone else but well... it had been 11 years. Its not like she hadn't tried to get a relationship going.
"We never did sleep together." she mused, of course she meant cuddling but there was no way for Thorn to know that. "Mercedes would always be on our backs." She rolled over and looked at Thorn "I'm glad we can right now."

Thorn instantly got a little fidgety suddenly finding her nails interesting when she was asked who Lily's father was it was a story she didn't like to remember. "it............didn't happen by choice, I would rather not talk about it." Thorn said avoiding the subject as much as possible. she didn't like talking about how she had come to have Lily but there was no mistaking it WAS her child, "yea...we never could because of Mercedes. I tried to sneak in a few times and got caught, threatened, then sent back to my room. not much she can do now I suppose right?" Thorn said pulling Evan closer to her, "I'm glad we can be here like this. i couldn't promise that i wouldn't have taken my fathers place......the power is so tempting." Thorn muttered more to herself but loud enough that Evan could hear what she said.

Evan looked with large eyes at Thorn. For the first time, she hesitated. Why wouldn't Thorn tell her? Wasn't trust one of the key aspects in a relationship?
She had never been power hungry or wanting to be someone's successor. Had she? What would she do.... to be as great as Freud. If the Onyx Dragons held a dark secret, would she still want to find out? If Freud had been a Black Mage commander and not one of the heroes....
Evan snuggled her head into Thorn's bosom. It was too late for this kind of though, and she was too tired.
