Grace let her head lay against Hunter's and smiled a little to herself. "Thank you." She whispered. "But...Im sorry...I wont...I wont be able to stay with you." She looked up at Hunter and her face said it all, her own mortality was about to come to come to fruition. "Tomorrow...Tomorrow the Angelo people will breath their last breath, they will all die...and I will with them. Hunter, tomorrow you will have to make a choice, but no matter what you choose, we will all die. All but one." She looked at the crib and a small smile found its way to her face. "Take care of her, please dont throw your life away, please survive, please let me go. Tomorrow you will choose whether I leave this world alone, or with you...please let me go alone." She kissed him once more, tears now lining her eyes.

Elva trembled on the bed as the sound of marching boots came near their door. "Mistress? Mistress please, help." She cried softly. Mai had left to go get food a few minutes ago, leaving Elva by herself. She was frightened now, leashed to the bed. She could easily undo the leash, but she dared not to. So she waited, cutely hidden behind some covers, doing her best to try to stay hidden though anyone who walked in would see her there.
