World of darkness: book one :Fractures of Corruption

Part 16 : escape plan

After the failed defence of the frost bourne out post Hilda and the others retreat into the forest and wait for the blizzard to come
Once the blizzard comes the nether won't stand a change in the cold which will have a victory and push the nether back and slow their advance

Meanwhile lance is being held by the nether kings to lead them to the end crystals but he's not giving in easily

( pov lance )

I woke up after the blast Alan sent at me I felt a lot of pain and I put my hands on my .... Wait hands
I released i had my body back and gorf was on the ground next to me I was concerned and looking at my body
" what how did you what ???" I was beyond confused

Alan " I told you I can give you almost anything now I gave you your body now you will give me the end crystals sound fair "
" uhhhh how about no " i try to blast them " oh crap that didn't work uhhh" Alan blasts me to a wall
Alan " your new body will need to take time for your powers to come in " he hits me into a wall

Alan kneels down to me
Alan " last change tell me where the crystals are or I'll have you for my next meal
I look up at him and punch him in the face but then he' blasts me into a wall
Alan " well then throw him back in a cell I will beat the information out of him later I'm sure your friend will love to chat wouldn't she " he laughs

Alan " naeus fetch her "
After a few minutes naeus had the very weak ciara on the ground pointing at he head with hes spear
Alan sits on the Throne
Alan" I'll give you a deal one more time tell me where the crystals are or your friends head will be mounted on that wall "
" oh I don't care for her she's technically the reason I was in the frog to begin with kill away "

Alan opens his claws and red magic and flames go around him then they go to ciara and start to rip her apart
She was screaming in complete pain
All of a sudden idk what happened I suddenly couldn't bar to watch
" alright stop !!!!" I yelled at him
He lets ciara go and drops

Alan " ready to make a deal mister end mage
" ok listen I don't know every crystal location completely but I know where one is exactly where you could go
Alan " tell me or you know your friend will die " he summons his sword from his back and points it just a foot away from ciaras face
" it's in the guardians landing " I did know where the other crystals were but my powers were coming back faster and faster Alan could no longer read my mind so I could lie but I still had to tell him the crystal location when he was reading my mind just a second ago

Now I began to plan my escape and get me and ciara out alive it will be hard for her with out her arm

Alan " naeus go with kralos and get the crystal I will go to the over world to lead the army's " he turns to his generals " black, Sadie make sure they don't escape while I head to the over world
They kneel in front of him
Black " yes my king
Sadie " sure whatever
Black " show some respect Sadie he's our king
Alan " stop it you to now take them to the cell"

Black points his sword at my back and makes me walk to the cell
Sadie grabs ciara and push's her along with us

We were locked in the cell
After Sadie and black left for a few minutes ciara spoke to me
Ciara " why didn't you save your self you could have escaped easily that's what I would do
" unlike you ciara I plan ahead Alan has a teleporting blocking field around him so if I'm close to him I can't teleport away and second I'm not leaving you behind
Ciara " why tho you don't care about me my actions caused you to become the frog gorf whatever " she was angry and scared
" your afraid aren't you it's the same thing that happened with the nether princess you were happy when you killed the piglins but when some one stabbed you and you can't stop them you become afraid "

Ciara " I'm just a problem every time I try to do what I think is right I get me or some one I care for killed
" your not the only one who caused pain people to people you cared about " I sit next to her
Ciara " what you mean ? " She asks me curious
" before I was exiled I made mistakes messed with the end crystals and powerful magic but I stopped and decided to fight for the end but then I met ceris " I wasn't sure if I really wanted to share this with her but I did it anyways

Ciara " you said you and ceris had history so what happened ?"
" me and ceris were close at first we were actually in love with each other and we had a daughter
Ciara " wait you have a kid ???!!!!" She was surprised
" I had Once before about 21 years ago I lost her at the end of the end civil war I have no idea where she is now "

I paused to get my mind straight and keep explaining

"Me and ceris both wanted the best for the end which was an empire at the time soon I was chosen to lead the end over her and I don't think she was happy so after a chain of events she exiled me and made me hide our daughter from her "
Before I could say more black and Sadie showed up

Sadie " well this is nice but shut up "
Black " the man was just talking about his sad past the hell "
Sadie " I don't care about people's life
They don't get along at all which will be perfect for me and ciaras escape

The end
