Edge felt a few tears begin to form. He would only cry for his family. But, perhaps, they didn't want him to go. And he didn't want to leave his kids, but he had no choice. What did they expect him to do? Bring two children into he battlefield? Even if they didn't get harmed, they shouldn't have to see their Daddy's darker nature. Not yet, it was far too soon. 

For now, he made his gaze hard and strong. His kids... they didn't need to worry about him. "Sleipnir , it's for your own safety. You and your brother's." But what his son said next made the hydra widen his eyes in fear. "N-no! Baby, you're my son, I'd never..." but his breath hitched and he coughed. "How did you? I never, ever said that!!!" Edge objected. 

"Daddy." Skylark suddenly spoke, and he turned to look. Skylark had his arms outstretched. "If you're going to leave, can I have one last... hug?" Edge quickly nodded and hugged both of his boys tightly. "I told you, this isn't over... we will be reunited." But as his violet eyes fell upon the faces of his boys, he was filled with joy. 

He loved then, so, so, much. He shed a few more tears. "Did you want to... come with Daddy? I'll show you my castle..." He wasn't strong enough to resist his desires. Skylark was quick to respond. "YESSSSSS!"
