The Assassin's Conquer (Book Two)

Chapter 25- Ryia

Breathing in I decided that sitting here was useless, I had to try something. My magic was still weak from so much use but I managed to burn the shackles off my legs.I walked into the darkness that shrouded one side of the room. Not being able to see anything was rather frusterating. I kept running into things and tripping over my own feet but I was soon able to find my way to some stairs that led up out of the dungeons.

Sadly the way I found the stairs was tripping over them. Lifting myself off my face I held to the wall while I stumbled up the stairs. The whole castle was earily silent so I decided that it would be alright to light a small fire in my hand. The room seemed to stretch on forever, I tried to make the fire burn brigther it did but it was sputtering. It held up just long enought to see that a large door was only ten paces in front of me.

I spead so fast that I ended up running into the door. Opening the door took mush longer than it should've. When I finally got out the sun blinded me. It took a while for my eyes to adjust to the light and when they finally did I saw Simon only a few steps in front of me. His eyes were wide with shock as I smiled sweetly and mustered up all the magic I could, waving I let myself sink into the earth.

Mustering up all my strength I willed the earth to move me toward the fae camp. Once I arrived everything happened in a blur. Grabbing a sword from a fallen warrior I charged slashing and cutting down enemy soldiers like a demon. In the swirl of iron, blood, and ripping flesh I pushed aside all the humanity left inside me. I cut people down like blades of grass not stopping once to think of how muck blood I was adding to my concious.

Soon the army had retreaded and there were sounds of cheers raidiating from the battle feild. Looking around I saw Leoamong them starring at me with a smile on his face. He ran toward me. "Ryia your ok. I was so worried what happened?" Leo asked. I smiled faintly as I looked into his eyes dark spots started to blur my vision. "I'll tell you later right now I think I need to" with that I passed out in Leo's arms.

My dreams were of darkness and laughter. I was sitting in the corner of nothing and crying. I had to escape this I couldn't bare seeing this anymore. I sat up staight as I woke brathing harshly I looked around to see that I was in the camp's infirmery. Niamh, I needed to find her make sure she was ok. I walked out of the infirmery tent followed by a rather worried looking nurse.

"Look your magic has taken a full recovery but we want to run a few tests on you to make sure your alright. So please come back to the infirmery" she said sternly. "If my magic is fine I need to go there is someone I need to check on and make sure she is ok, I'm sorry" I said sinking into the earth once more. I sought out Niamh's energy though it took longer than it should've I was able to bring myself to her.

I looked around and realized I was in the castle gardens. "Ryia!" I heard a young voice shout out as I felt small arms wrap around my neck. "Niamh" I whispered hugging her tightly. I could have lived in this moment happily forever.
