I was in the cave with the Bane, and I was circling around him while telling Ares to get closer when suddenly a claw swiped me off Ares and I was flung against the wall. I land on the ground and my vision is blurry but through the haze all I see is blood and Ares then it all goes black.

All the sudden Ares rose from the darkness that took over and snarled,"YOU LET ME DIE!" While he circled around me in the dark black cave, the Bane nowhere in sight.

"THE PROPHECY CALLED FOR YOUR DEATH NOT MINE" He shrieks as he circles closer to me, I'm laying on the ground my eyes never leaving him. I notice that his chest has been ripped open with 3 claw marks showing where he was hit, with mangled skin hanging from the wound. His neck was bitten and torn with only some of it remaining. His once black fur drenched in blood.

"DID I NOT LET MY OLD BOND DIE TO SAVE YOU? BE IN NEGLECT MY ENTIRE LIFE!" Closer.

"I... no Ares I would trade my life so you could live..." I pleaded to him as I'm hit with his blood that fell from the wound and as he got closer and closer.

"LIAR!" He snarled and dove the remaining distance and grabbed me, sinking his claws into my flesh in the process. He flew out of the cave to the cliff where it all started, where he sacrificed his bond to save me, where his old bond died...and dropped me.

As I'm falling I see all the dead creatures but the one that stands out is Ares who is healthy and flying again with someone on his back. Upon closer inspection I see that it's Henry.

I wake up sweating and gasping for breath, my eyes wide with fear as the image of Ares covered in blood with mangled skin hanging off still fresh in my mind.

"Ares" I whimpered as I wipe the sweat and tears off my face with my blanket that I clutch to my chest. Once I've wiped all the sweat and tears from my face I bring my knees to my chest and hold them there tightly as my mind wanders.

I blink and my eyes focus back in on my room as the image of all the underlanders and creatures laying dead fades away.
