They had spoken all through the night, Ethan had gone through stories of her past. Everything he knew about her and it had taken all night to go through the important events that she should know. There had been tears, a lot of tears but that was because Iris knew everything was now going to change and not for the better. Although she now knew about her boyfriend Ethan it wasn’t the same, she could recall feeling something for him, but it was not how she felt now and that was a topic she would have to discuss with him. In a less dangerous setting. 

Iris hadn’t sleep, she felt sick to her core speaking with Ethan. Memories would trickle in here and there, but they weren’t anything of big importance. The only thing she could focus on was the fact she was here to kill Caspain, someone she knew she had feelings for and only yesterday had kissed him. 

“I get it, I can’t imagine what it’s like to not know anything.” Ethan sighed heavily running fingers through his hair, it was morning now and he was exhausted especially with being on the run from the interrogators. “No pressure on us though, don’t force those feelings for me. It’d be cruel.” Shaking his head slightly as he looked towards the door, a part of him was worried on if anyone would walk in, but it was still early. He was crushed, he had liked Iris for as long as he could remember. Chased her since school and here she was not even able to conjure up any sort of feelings to him. He had to be the better man though, he couldn't do anything about it whilst here. 

Wincing when she heard his words, she looked at her hands sighing as she fiddled with the fabric of her clothes, [color=f49ac2]“I’m so sorry. This is so much to take in.”[/color]

“Our lives are in danger, our people, your people need you to do this. You can’t return to your father empty handed. We will have to do something. You can get close to him.” Ethan stressed his words as he looked at Iris with pleading eyes, trying to convince her to continue on with the plan. “If they find me here, find you harbouring me we’re both going to end up to those interrogators, do you know what they do?” 

[color=f49ac2]“No”[/color]

“Iris, have you forgotten about her. Your mother.” Grimacing as he had avoided to tell her about her mothers’ death, he hated having to break this news to her. 

[color=f49ac2]“I know what happened, father couldn’t pay for her medicine, no one would help. I know why he started the rebellion.”[/color] Placing her head in her hands as she sighed, she was exhausted, no tears left to cry and she didn’t want to think on it anymore. [color=f49ac2]“I know they need help.. I want to help, but Cas… he. He saved my li…”[/color]

“You like him don’t you.” Cold words cut across before he let her finish her sentence, a couple of days ago she had been up for the task. Now she was different, something had changed, and he felt his hands curled into firsts angry at the whole thing. “Iris, you can’t walk away from your past. They will figure out who you are here, do you know they have expert men going through every photo of every person trying to find out who is in this rebellion. They’ll catch onto you and being locked here, interrogated… it isn’t just simple questions and we have people down there at this very moment who risked their lives to try and find you.”

[color=f49ac2]“N-No… I…”[/color] Shaking her head she felt it pound away from a headache that had formed hours ago. [color=f49ac2]“I… I’m not a killer. How will killing him change anything? What if I talk to him? He will understand, he would want to help.”[/color]

Scoffing he turned his back on Iris, a part of him sickened as he had tried to be understanding. “What about kidnapping him, you don’t have to kill him.” 

[color=f49ac2]“No, Ethan… bloodshed won’t help any of the people. If he goes missing the capital will search for him. Probably burn everything down trying to find him. This is a lost cause. Our best course of action is for you to hide… you can hide in this room. No one will be in here and we can plan an escape back home.”[/color] 

Shaking his head, he sighed, what would have happened had she not have lost her memories? “Fine, but remember if you try taking me down, I’ll bring you with me. We are doing this together. It’s best we get out of here, away from influences that are effecting your judgement.” As much as he wanted to kick off at her, argue over everything he had to keep his voice down. There was no way he wanted anyone to find out he was here; he would convince her to kidnap him. They would get this done whether by force or not.
