Chapter 14 A Hero of Evil and Good Arces and Lionfang meet in mid air. Arces managed to knock Lionfang's sword out of his hands. Lionfang pulled out a whip. He sent it at Arces, who dodged it. Arces attacked. His blade missed lionfang by only a couple inches. Lionfang sent another attack by his whip at Arces. It grabbed his arm. Lionfang sent his whip up, pulling Arces with it. Arces went flying through the air, until Lionfang crashed him into the ground. Arces got up, grabbedchis sword, and looked at Lionfang. Lionfang, and everyone else, flinched in fear. Arces' eyes had turned from blue to a demonic red. He sent a large infeno, so hot the room started melting, through the celling. Arces looked at Lionfang, and sent another inferno at him. Lionfang got out of the way, but suffered from the heat. His armor was melting, and his cape was on fire. He raised his whip, only for arces to turn it into a living inferno. Lionfang looked at Arces. He had started sprouting a crown of horns, his skin was turning red, his teeth were fangs, and his eyes had become bright red orbs. Arces was a nightmare of himself. Arces sent another inferno at lionfang, knocking off his helm. It became a puddle of melted stell only a second later. Arces was about to finish the job, when Gravelyn came into the room. Gravelyn shouted,"Thats enough Arces!" Arces looked at Gravelyn. She had a disqusted and scared look on her face. Arces sent his flames through the celling, and began to change back. His horns vanished, his sking became it's regular color, his eyes became blue, his teeth were normal, and the skin on his wings went back to their regular color. He tied up Lionfang and freed the others. Everyone stared at Arces. They were all scared of him now. Artix said,"Wh..what about Lionfang?" Robina toke a look t him and said,"How about we throw him in the prisons?" King Alteon walked up and said,"The Shadowscythe are not your enemy Maximillion. Drakath is." "Both are my enemys,"he replied."I will end the Shadowscythe, then tak care of Drakath myself. Attack them!" Two members of the Golden Onslaght were sitting in the corner. The warrior said,"No." The other nodded. Lionfang looked confused. He said,"Traitors." Both said,"No! We have just seen the truth." Gravelyn said,"You are both free to join me, or King alteon in our fight against Drakath and Chaos." Both nodded and rose. Lionfang untied himself, and used his ropes as a whip. He sent his improvised whip at Gravelyn. Arces was about to take the hit. then, King Alteon caught it with his arm. He flinced in pain. He said,"You are a fool Maximillion! Gravelyn is necissary to defeat Drakath!" Lionfang replied,"No,"and ran out the hole in the wall Arces made, landing in the death fog. Arces looked down at what Lionfang had done. He was shocked. Everyone just shock their heads. Artix asked, could he survive that?" Robina said,"It is psoible hes alive." Gravlyn said,"He is alive. Trust me." "I do my lady,"Arces replied. Arces lead them out of the tower. His flames had cleared a good amount of the death fog away. That night Gravelyn wanted to talk to him. They walked around the camp. Gravlyn said,"what was that back there Arces?" Arces said,"I don't know Gravelyn. but it felt like i was powerful enough to defeat Drakath. It felt like I was a living volcano." Gravlyn stopped for a second, stunned. when Arces looked back, Gravelyn kept moving. Arces felt guilty. Gravelyn looked at Arces and said,"Don't feel bad Arces, it was nothing." Arces sighed and just walked on. Gravlyn followed. After another hour, Gravelyn stopped Arces and asked,"Whats wrong Arces?" Arces looked into her eyes and said,"It is nothing my lady." Gravlelyn's conserned face turned to anger."Don't lie to me Arces."He voice made Arces feel like he was dieing. Arces said,"I'm sorry. It's something i have to deal with." Gravelyn said, after calming down,"Be careful Arces." She walked away. Arces felt even more quilty. He has upset the women he loves. He let out a couple of tears. He went to bed, but barly slept. The next day, they contiued their journey to Swordhaven. Arces and Gravelyn were avoiding each other, it was obvious. They knew better than to mess around in anything like this though. After a couple of days, they arived in Swordhaven. Arces went to his chambers, and got out of his armor, and put on his other clothes. He was about to have a little nap, when he hear someone knock on his door. Artix walked in. He was wearing his paladen armor. Artix asked,"Whats wrong with you Arces?" Arces said,"Nothing Artix." Artix frowned and said,"One of those things huh?" Arces didn't answer. Artix got up and desided to leave. Before he left, Arces said,"Wait." He looked back, and Arces said,"Tell Gravelyn i'm sorry." Artix frowned and said,"Thats your job Arces." Arces just laughed and said,"Thank you my friend." Artix couldn't help but laugh himself. The next day, Arces went to Gravlyn's chambers. He knocked on her door. Gravlyn opened the door and said,"Come in." Arces went in and sat down. The room had barly anything. A bed and a dest were the only things there. Gravlyn had her armor un in the corner. She was wearing her dress. Gravelyn handed Arces a small cup and said,"Drink up." That made Arces fell even more quilty. Arces said,"I'm sorry my lady." Gravelyn paused for a second, and then said,"Apoligy accepted." Arces felt a little less guilty. He drank what was in the cup. It was tea. It tasted like peppermint. Gravelyn's smile than turned to a frown. Arces noticed. Gravelyn then began to cry. Arces went to her side and asked,"Is something wrong Gravlyn?" In between sobs, Gravlyn said,"This...this...tea was what...what my dad...would make me...me when I was...sad."she burst out crying even harder. Arces knew it was crossing the border, but he gave Gravelyn a big hug. She cryed while being in his arms. At this moment, Arces began to cry. Gravelyn left the next day. It would be a while before Arces ever saw her again.
