Midnight

38 - Explaining to Do

The start of their dinner date was peaceful and full of laughs and a few flirty comments. Their dinner date was done but the date continued when they went into the woods, "why are we going into the woods?" Spenser questioned.

"You'll see," Blake says continuing to walk into the forest and looking at each tree.

"You're not going to murder me, are you?" Spenser snickered a little. Blake chuckled.

"No, I wanted to show you something," Blake showed Spenser the whole city glowing with the street lights. Spenser was amazed by this, "the first time I saw this, the problems that had made me feel stressed had gone away,"

"It's beautiful," he says in awe. Blake smiled as she watched his expression looked shocked, impressed, and in awe.

Blake leads Spenser near the edge and they sat on the edge of the cliff and looked over the glowing city. She could feel the news about death had gone away and the silence had made her feel calm. Blake rested her head on Spenser's shoulder and smiled softly. This was the night that she would cherish.

At least that's what she thought.

Blake groans a little, she immediately jumps back away from the cliff and held her head. She could feel her head being clenched like an intense headache. Blake began to scream as the pain got more painful.

Spenser gasped and watched her scream in agony, "Blake, what is wrong?!" he questioned, feeling scared a little.

"Shut up!" Blake growled, she looked up and her expression was angered, "shut up! Shut up, shut up, shut up!"

"Blake..."

"This is a waste of time!" Blake started, "this is all a waste of time, I am losing time!" Blake screamed as she stomps around.

"What is a waste of time--?" Spenser looked past Blake and saw many pairs of glowing yellow and red eyes in the shadows of the forest behind them. He gasped.

Blake whipped her attention behind her and saw the goblins. It looked like they were hungry for them. She growled as she turned her body towards them. Her face was shadowed by her platinum hair bangs and slowly extended her arm up and opened her hand. Her sword of Midnight appeared in her hand and she ran toward into the shadows.

While Spenser saw her run into shadows with her sword he just stood there. He can hear the sounds of growling sounds and screeches from the shadows. He can hear the slashing sounds of the sword and flashing mixed colours of dark purple and black with white linings.

"What the...?" Spenser backed up a little and tripped on a stone and fell onto his back, but he kept his eye in the shadows. It suddenly went silent, "Blake..." he called out but no answer.

Until Blake came out with her sword dragging on the ground with green slime on her clothes and sword. She just stood there with a blank expression.

She blinked a few times and saw Spenser with a shocked expression, "I... I am so sorry, I didn't want you to find out about what I really do on my free time," she apologizes.

Spenser slowly got up and walked toward her slowly. Blake was expecting a slap to the face but instead, she was suddenly grabbed be her cheeks and pulled into a kiss. Blake didn't expect this kind of reaction from Spenser.

He pulled away and Blake was blushing a bright pink, "you got some explaining to do,"

"Ok, I will start from the beginning when I became the Midnight Trollhunter," Blake sighed.

"It all started in New York City... I was exploring and I found this amulet..." Blake began to explain everything to Spenser and he was listening to everything that he was given.

Every. Single. Thing.

Even about how many days she's got to live.
