Oh nooo the female has stopped breathing!? Ok they didn't see me right? yup no way they could of but... what if the male did? ah crap screw this if anything I can learn from this lets see...

Im covering the female in my body? just think of it as a incubator ok make a tube inside her and supply oxygen from the air around me ok she's not dead yet  can I spread into her body? some more? hm oh! She has alot of shattered bones that are slowly healing!? well I've confirmed a few things I can kinda touch people like a slime except I float... whatever ok this should be enoug- oh!?

Catherines mana was still lingering and had touched the transparent orb 

.  .  . YUM m moarre mmmm oh wait she's getting colder!? aw crap so if eat this.... mana? too much I can kill? Or make someone really sick? I shouldnt risk her life and make an enemy I dont plan on killing these two right now there could be more humans around here...

MMMMmmmm *POP* It worked ! Either im not completely physical or I can slip through solid objects by making myself super tinyish  I dont know I can pass through tree's and people... 

Now about this mana stuff Im making my own now, and its great! I can only heal and lift small rock right now though hm I guess the female was a healer of some sort but the male has rock magic apparently, good to know

Leon turns around

Catherine is gone and the forest has gotten darker shadows moving everywhere

Leon : Catherine?

*Catherines screams echo throughout the forest*

Leon : CATHERINE!? CATHERINE WHERE ARE YOU !?

Catherine : Leon!

Leon : Catherine! where are you !?

Catherine : Leon please help me! Its getting closer!

Leon : Catherine run to my voice!

Leon starts sprinting back from where he heard Catherines voice but every time it seems she's right behind a tree or bush she's farther away and her voice starts to fade

Leon : Catherine? Catherine !? answer me ! CAIT !?

*Catherine screams again* ROAOOOOR *snap snap crunch* the screams abruptly cut off

Leon : I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU HURT HER BEAST I SWEAR IT!!!!! Catherine !?

as if she whispered in his ear Leon felt cold air brush across his neck and immediately turned around to see a very familiar cave

Catherine : *crying comes from cave*

Leon : Catherine im here!

Leon enters the cave and sees his friends bodies along the way then he spots Catherine in a corner huddled up he reaches for her shoulder and she as cold as ice but alive he turns her to face him

Catherine : You promised !

Half her entire face was hanging her  green eyes are missing and her flowing brown hair wet with blood and the smell of old iron hits leon and he saw her stomach was torn open from the inside out Leon almost threw up then and there but a sound came from behind him

 *growl growl growl growl* Dozens of freshly "spawned" goreilla's were behind him..... leon connected the dots

Catherine : Doyou see now? Im ruined im dead you couldn't protect me Leon...you can't protect anyone *slides to her side and dies*

Leon : Catherine.....

Leon set her bruised body on its back and crossed her arms

Leon : Catherine?

DeadEnd : Bwaha boy you can have my sloppy se-hmm I lost count after the third dozen batch.... Oh well retrieve what you came for 

Leon : Im going to kill you....

DeadEnd : hm? what was that?

Leon : Im going to kill you!

DeadEnd : hmm-what? sorry I was recalling that whore moaning on my cocks she was louder than you can you repeat that?

Leon : YOU'RE DEAAD!!!!!!!!!!

*stab*

Leon : !?

Catherine had stabed him with his own sword from his spin up piercing his heart and through his chest

Leon : c Catherine!?

Catherine : Till death do us part.... my babies come eat mommy has food...*push*

The second leons back hit the ground hoards of young goreilla's began tearing him apart but all he saw was Catherine as darkness began clouding his vision he saw her and DeadEnd already starting to beed again 

............

Leon : NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leon shot up from his slumber and was now sitting up looking for his sword when he saw Catherines body on its side not far from him unmoving  .  .  .

Leon : no .  .  .  .no nonono NO!

Leon rushed to her side and flinched before pulling her to his lap, relief beyond words washed over Leon as he saw her unharmed 

Uh excuse me?

Leons eye sharpend though unarmed he wasn't harmless Leon had his fair share of unarmed combat experience and was ready at a moments notice

Leon : Who goes there!?

Leon : Show yourself!

Leons eyes weren't deceiving him there was no one in sight

Leon : Lies! Come out now! 

*sigh* Screw it you obviously can't see me and your not dead so if you'll excuse me im going to find someone more cooperative 

Leon : WAIT

*silence*

Leon couldn't believe it was so but DeadEnd was nowhere to be seen a few arms lying around yes but there was no body

Leon : where's DeadEnd? "I must eliminate him he must  be wiped from this world and crushed to paste"

DeadEnd? the androgynous voice spoke

Leon : Yes DeadEnd where is he!

Leon : "another dumb question" DeadEnd is a S class monster so no he's no animal

Leon : "Leon had not lost his friends and nearly his wife for nothing" no it was my kill
