Dark Time

A/N: well like I said two chapters ago, I wanna try out new stuff, I still have plans to stay on the original plan but I originally planned on making DiE insane and I haven't been too happy with the lack of insanity/unstableness and the song, well I'll leave a mark when is a good time to play it which will be this: § and there's two of those, the first one so you don't finish reading half way through and the second is when I first meant to put it but I hope ye enjoy.
"DAMN IT, I can't fail again, I CAN'T, I just cannot fail... for her" The Esper is seen holding his head in his arms has he pounds his desk while a screen projects from his dynamos reads system check results: Failure that continues to flash which seem to just mock the Esper in his pain "Oberon, bring me my pills and Ophelia bring me some tea." Add had a tone of sadness as he wiped away tears while his hair loom over him in a mess
"Yes Master Add" Oberon and Ophelia brought Add the items he requested
"I'm not your master, Eve is but thank you" Add plop the pill into his mouth and swallowed it with the tea "damn, I'm running out of sleeping pills, only 4 more but it is enough to sleep, wonder what nightmare I'll have tonight" He rolled his eyes knowing what nightmare he would have since that's all he could dream since the incident. He took his jacket off and shoes as he lay down to sleep, staring into the ceiling until the sleeping pills took effect.

Crackle of fire is heard as buildings collapse that were no long able to withstand themselves, while decorated with many bodies that all look like to be two different females and a male, with no movement going on aside the flames burning what remains and a white hair boy running, stumbling as he runs, tired from all the running.
"No please, not again, why must it always end like this" the small boy muttered through his tears in front of a pile of bodies.
"It's ok Add, please don't give up, our story may end here but yours is just beginning" A woman with lavender hair but stained with red blood was awaken when she heard Add's voice
"You're mother is right Add, continue our legacy, you mustn't let our work end, the nasods must live, do it for us."
"No mom and dad, my story should have ended here, with you, my story isn't of greatness but of evil, I'm just a waste of space."
"Add..." A familiar face from a different time period, the most noticeable feature was the blue orb on her forehead "I've seen you destroy the past, but you've also help save the future, so many lives have been spared because of you, your story follows both the path of evil and light, you can still decide your own fate, keep fighting Add, please, for me and your parents." Add was shocked to see Eve showed up in this dream.
"Eve, w..what are you doing here?"
"She was trying to protect us, you found yourself a wonderful girlfriend, I'm glad to know you have her, that you won't be alone" Add's mother grab his hand as she tried to comfort him
"I'm sorry Add, guess Oberon really was a useless servant, I'm sorry I didn't make him better" Eve eyes had a glistening shine, as if they were wet from tears.
"No, it's ok Eve, I should be thanking you for everything you've done, it wasn't your fault, it's mine, this is my punishment."
"NO, don't say that Add, it's not..." Eve started coughing "It's not true"
Feet running could be heard, a group of guys wielding guns appeared "damn you little piece of..." his voice became inaudible for a second for words that Add never heard clearly before could not be said for this a dream, only what he knows can be created "I would have spared you as a slave, not anymore, I'm done with your annoyance" A loud thundering boom was heard with a flash following it.

The Esper woke up, in a cold sweat he often woke up to, he looked around frantically for Eve to comfort him but he remembered quickly why she wasn't there, then the voices started to consume his thinking, slipping into the void that his madness hadn't consumed yet. "you're a failure Add." "Why did you even brother, you knew you would fail?" "what's the point of being the strongest if you can't even save them?" "Just give up." "You should have died there." The words grew louder, blocking out all sounds until the Esper released a muffled scream into his pillow all the while tears flowed down his eyes when he noticed a red piece of cloth hanging over his couch, once he fixed himself up, he got up to see a familiar face lying asleep, what was once the red knight of Velder was lying on his couch.
§ "Oh, hello Add" The crimson avenger open her eyes to see Add shocked, frozen and not knowing what to do
His sclera turned black instantly as his dynamos flew under his couch and knocked it into the air as it flip it over, then proceeding to restraint Elesis to the ceiling looking down "how did you get in here, why are you even here!?!"
"I suppose that was expected but your door was never fully fixed and I needed somewhere to go"
"What about the Elgang and Elsword, doesn't he need you?"
Elesis was quiet for a second "we got in a... fight, he got angry at me."
"Oh, why did you guys fight? "
"He found out I had no wish to live, he found out the only reason I'm still there is because of him and he thought he was just a weight to me when that isn't the case, least helps knowing Aisha is there to comfort him though"
"Oh, sorry about that, I do lose control of myself, didn't help time poison was surging through my body, moments before the medicine took effect but those two should really date though, they make a cute couple"
"Yes they do but do you mind putting me down, I also got a small gift for you to make up for me napping on your couch"
"Just give me a sec" Add took several pillows and threw them on the floor below Elesis with a blanket covering the pillows and let Elesis drop, hitting the pile of pillows "there, now where's this small gift you said you had?"
Elesis threw a chocolate bar at Add once she picked herself up "consider this as a payment for me sleeping here, I also least took my shoes off at the front door, I know you hate things getting dirty, well least used to" Elesis scanned around the messy work space.
"Thank you very much, just keep giving me chocolate and we'll be ok unlike Chung and Ara who would likely eat it and for the messy work space, insanity is a deliberating thing so this happens"
"The Dark El did manifest inside me Add, I don't fight much for I don't want to break out into a hysterical laughter as the madness takes me and you should know that feeling, anyhow you often kill all the enemies so I can't even get a piece of the action."
"Ah, I won't lie, I have wished to study you, understand how the Dark El has infused with your body, how I could use it to make myself stronger, I just hope if you do break out into laughter that your laughter is least..... cute or enjoyable."
A slight silence fell "The Dark El also suppress my emotions, including that of love, the unfortunate truth is that even I have a hard time loving Elsword"
"I think we can organize a, deal of sorts as in you let me study you and I can work something out to help you I suppose" A grin fell upon his face as he pulled a pen from his pocket
§ "I have nothing left to lose so I don't see why not, but I'm too tired to start it today, another day ok" Elesis just lay down on Add's bed.
Add gave her a look "I do have to work on something, something to protect Eve when I do save her from that damn succubus, useless Oberon and Ophelia, least Ophelia is decent but no match to my power of course."
"You act like anyone else can, only one is Glave and Luto, you literally have condensed entire timeline to the point they fit in the palm of your hand, anyhow what are you working on to help protect Eve in the future?"
"Another summon for her, one that will have some of my powers but I've had nothing but failure, damn AI is so difficult to write without her codes, harder than my dynamos, damn thing shatters apart when using a time gate." Add then sat down at his desk since he couldn't sleep where he turned on a small speaker and played some music
"What are you listening to?" Elesis sat up on his bed
"Life goes on by iniquity and Dro, time travel remember, that's why you don't know who they are"
The Crimson avenger walked over to Add after who was working away on some more plans when she startled him by wrapping her arms around him as she lay her fingers on the crystal in the middle of his chest
"What are you doing?!?!" A storm of mixed feelings fell upon him, feeling of anger, confusion, comfort with a hint of love
"Isn't this a small dark El crystal, can't you use the Dark El for your calculations" as she played with the Dark El on his chest, it glowed a little brighter as the avenger unknowingly fueled the crystal with dark el.
"The crystal isn't... strong... enough, WHAT'S GOING ON?" The crystal started glowing, causing the Avenger to let go of Add, causing the light to die down but it remain with a soft purple glow. "What did you do?" Five dynamos whirled around Elesis to study her while the sixth one overs the crystal to try and understand what happened
"I don't know, guess the Dark El in my body reacted with the crystal" she look at her hands with a hint of disgust at herself for not being able to control the power
"What the result?" System report: no result for human E, strength of crystal: +10% "huh, this will take some research but damn it's late, tomorrow we will research this, I recommend you get some sleep, tomorrow will be a busy day, and either tomorrow or the day after, I want you to release your madness, I need to study it, also I need some help clearing the pathetic mobs, that's one aspect I'm weak in so got it, sleep now or something." Add lay on his bed that the avenger was laying on after the scan had finished.
"Ok, hope you don't mind me sleeping on your bed, I already got comfortable here and I don't want to get up" Elesis then turned to face the edge of the bed and hug a pillow
"Fine but I'm going to set a barrier, I don't want Eve getting mad at me incase she somehow have a way to watch me through her servants or something, especially that crab looking robot she has" Add pointed toward a white, crab like Nasod that is inactive before opening a portal over the bed and dropping the pillows that soften the avenger's landing to create a barrier before they both closed their eyes to sleep
"Good night" they muttered to each other before falling into a short slumber.

I hope you have enjoyed, like I said before, this won't become a DiE x CrA story, just want to use her as a means to fuel Add's madness, but least if you also ship those two, well as they say (I think) you can have your cake and eat it too but if you got any feedback, I always appreciate it~ Gamehunter
