... Oliver exploded to smithereens with a loud bang. Natasha looked up and tears welled up from her eyes. Amaya was also looking in shock. Oliver was lucky, he had two people love him before he died.
I sighed, all was over now. We defeated the demon before it could come out. But i didn't believe we will win as easily as that. But i had to appreciate that everything was settled before it could escalate. I for once am very weak, that was the first time I used my trump card and my body was already weeping for the effort.
Amaya dispersed everyone to go home, while the Exterminators remained observing everything.
"you must have been friends with Oliver, he was a really good guy, he wouldn't hurt a fly even if you forced him to."
Amaya said as she came to meet with us. I looked at her and discovered she was not that older than me. I stood taller than her and she had to look up to me.
"he didn't say anything about us did he?" I was in awe looking at the movement of her mouth. My crush was standing right in front of me. Truly I had admired The Fiery Deity. It's a pity she wouldn't be able to see me in action.
"I am leaving, you guys did well. I will send some of my people to come repair your school."
The words burst from my mouth before I could stop them. "How old are you?" I grasped my mouth tight, I saw Natasha and she shook her head at my stupid question. I stared at her.
"You don't ask a lady her age but I am thirty years old. Due to the love he had for me, upon getting the book he rewrote my age to be that of seventeen and I will forever be seventeen no matter how I grow. He turned me to an immortal. He was a truly funny guy."
I was surprised, I thought I was the only one who could manipulate time like that. Oliver must have really loved her and she also loved him to allow him manipulate her age. That love was uncommon. I sighed audibly and here was me thinking i had a chance.
She stared at me for some minutes and smiled. I wondered what she was thinking.. She raised herself up to my level and kissed me.
I stood shell shocked still trying to find my senses.

A gust of wind blew up and Natasha, Amaya and me looked around and saw something like a gale appearing. The Exterminators rounded us pointing their guns at the dying wind. The wind died down revealing a boy with golden hair. An X mark was on his forehead. His eyes were closed and his body was muscular. Something seemed familiar about him.
He opened his eyes and those eyes which I couldn't forget anywhere was revealed... Oliver.
Natasha ran to him, more like teleported and hugged him tightly. He looked at her and removed her from him. I saw something like a sword appear on his chest. Natasha stared at it in shock.
Then in his voice. "Who are you?"
The End.
