*She looked deeply into his eyes and felt his pain. The news of Laili and Ussej had hit her hard. More news of her not doing well didn't bode well at all. It was something she couldn't help but think she was responsible for. Arael wanted to ask him more questions about what had happened, but he needed his time to speak...and she gave it to him. She had failed Ussej and Laili. As he took a breath, she lowered her gaze again and swallowed. She knew what was coming and let her hands drop from around him.*
"Then you're going to Coruscant."
*Her voice seemed hollow and empty...almost like a whisper. She knew of the dangers there and more so of the repurcussions if he and the others failed.*

"Yes im going to Couruscant. Arael you know i cant just sit here and watch as more Jedi fall day by day. If one life can be saved at the expense of mine, than its worth it."
*He returned the gaze, his golden eyes echoed with pain as he gazed into hers. He knew She was hurting more and more with every word he spoke and in turn it hurt him*
"Arael i love you more than you could possibly imagine, but if i dont go, then the Jedi Order as we know it might not exist much longer."

*She raises her gaze up to meet his pleading with him and filled with so much love and concern.*
"Then let me go with you. I'm nothing without you here around me. My fate will be your fate. Let me fight alongside you. If the Jedi fall, I want to fall with them. I'm tired of this exile. I'm tired of us being driven apart. I hate the wedge that all of this has driven between us. I know the Jedi are falling apart everywhere and we are dwindling faster than a snuffed out candle....but I can't stand living without you. Let me go and fight with you, Damien. Please."

"Arael, i dont want to put you in any danger, think of your importance to this Exile. Your importance to me."
*As much as he knew he had to if he wanted to decline her request he could turn away from her gaze. With a sigh he spoke softley, echoeing through his voice and the force itself his true care and love for her, which he could even put into words.*
"We leave tomarrow, A shuttle will be waiting....Arael you do realise what this means to me. Putting you in any kind of danger...Arael were stareing death in the face."

*Tears filled her eyes at his words of love and concern for her. Could she tell him?*
"I was going to walk away from us. I was going to give you up completely and focus just on being a Jedi, but I can't. I tried, but I can't give you up. Call me selfish or whatever you want to call me. I love you, Damien. I don't care what I might face there on Coruscant. I am a Jedi. A Jedi's life is sacrifice and love too is sacrifice. If I die on Coruscant, then so be it. I can't live the rest of my life wondering if my presence would have made a difference if you weren't to return. Damien, I would follow you to the ends of the galaxy...even to death."

* The thoughts of losing her phased him for a moment, he had never before thought of her leaving, or what it might do to them. Though her words there after were reassuring, they held the confidence he knew her to have when he first laid eyes upon her *
“Your not selfish at all. You’re entirely right. Arael I love for you is incomparable to that of anything iv experienced before, and it death becomes us then I want it to be next to you. Though that is a road we don’t need to travel yet. I want to be with you forever, and Couruscant is no exception.

"Then you'll let me come?"
*She looked into his eyes still pleading. Onderon officials wouldn't be happy with their queen rushing off to her possible death leaving no heir to the thone. Had the council agreed with her, she would have had something worked out already for the throne to be taken by election. Arael wasn't thinking of Onderon in this moment. She was only thinking of Damien. She had come close to losing him before she she couldn't see it happen again. It had only been a few months since his last battle in the very throne room of Iziz.*

*Damien drew in a breath of the crips air that floated casually around them, and nodded, slowly at first, then building up confidence. He still hated the thought of her in this position, next to him, Ranka and the greatest of the Jedi in a Temple full of nothing but Sith, though he wasnt going to break another promise*
"Do i have a choice?"
*Damien said with a jokeing tone as he allowed a smile to crepp upon his face*

"Hey! I'm not that bad."
*She smiles at him and pokes him hard.*
"You know I listen to you....well, most of the time I listen to you."

*He laughs, which leaves him in a smile, something he hadnt done in quite a while*
"You dont have to listen to me you know, im not a drill sargent."
