Finally, after the longest twenty minutes in his life, the skyscrapers and urban structures of Lost Haven finally began to give way to trees, and eventually the vast wilderness that is most associated with the state of Maine. Lyger steered Kaiju off of the main road into a small cul de sac surrounded by nothing but the forest. He knew that they could talk here without being disturbed. 

He cut Kaiju’s engine and just sat there for a moment, looking out the shattered windshield of his car. Then, after taking a breath to steady himself he looked over to the armored figure of who he now knew to be Addie. After waiting a beat, he reached up and removed his mask. 

“Yes, I’m Lyger.” Kyle said with uncertainty in his voice. 

The silence was killing me. He wasn’t talking and I could not figure out how to break the quiet of the ride. When the car finally stopped in Settler’s clearly I breathed a sigh of relief hoping that we could talk now. I’m still worried though, this wasn’t something that I was expecting. Weird dreams are one thing; finding out my boyfriend is secretly a superhero is something entirely different

I watch as he reaches up and removes his mask and I see that it really is Kyle. I still hadn’t been 100% sure until I saw his face. Strangely I feel relaxed with the knowledge. Maybe it just is relief that I was right and that I had decided to listen to Emily and be a hero tonight. If I hadn’t, I shudder to think about it. 

My hand lets go of the blade at last and it vanishes as it leaves my fingers. I hold my arm out slightly and close my eyes. My armor wavers and flickers a few times before vanishing and I open my eyes and look at Kyle again with a relieved smile. “And I’m the ‘knight’ from the news” I say sheepishly.

Kyle watched as the armor vanished before his eyes. He looked at Addie, and though he was having trouble processing everything that had just happened, he somehow felt more at ease. However, he did have questions for her, and he suspected that she had some for him as well. He had seen the reports of the so called knight on the evening news a couple of nights back. It had been quite the spectacle, and Kyle had to admit that he’d been impressed with the amateur footage that had been used in the report. He never would have guessed that the mysterious knight had in fact been his girlfriend…just as she probably never would have guessed that he spent his nights as a masked vigilante.

“What was that thing back there? You said something about ‘Dark Possessed?’” he finally asked.

I hear him ask about what a Dark Possessed is and for a second I do not know how to answer. My mind is suddenly full of tricks for combating them but I don’t know where the knowledge came from and it starts to fade again quickly. I open my mouth to say that I am not sure but that is not what comes out. “Dark Possessed are vessels for them to walk among us. They take control and use the people for” The trickle of instinct guiding my words stops suddenly. “bad things.” I finish lamely because I do not know what I was going to say.

“The man was possessed by pieces of them. He was a Dire Reaver but not in a corpse like they normally are.” another phrase slips out before I know what I’m saying. But it does make sense even as I massage the side of my head with a hand feeling a headache coming on.
