"You weren't gonna kill Scaramouche yourself were you?" She walked over to Albedo and helped him up, "I got carried away," Albedo replied then looked at Scaramouche. His head was chopped off and his face looked like it already decided to begin rotting..maybe that was just Albedos mind playing tricks on him though. "Are you still gonna give me shit about the katana?" Ei held the katana by her side. "No, not anymore." Albedo looked back at Ei. "Weren't you saving these people also?" Ei reminded him, "Yes," he nodded then went to Klee and Vivienne's cell, Klee was crying and Vivienne was covering Klees eyes.
"Klee.." Albedo said softly, "No! no, no!" Klee yelled as she hugged Vivienne tighter, "It's alright..he's dead now, he can't hurt you. We are going to save you." Albedo calmly spoke then grabbed the keys off of Scaramouches dead body, and unlocked Klees cell. Vivienne uncovered Klees eyes and Klee looked up at Albedo, she began crying more and ran to Albedo hugging him. "You're safe now..unlocked everyone else's cell for me alright? But find a safe place to hide, then it'll be safe to go back home." Albedo hugged Klee back, "Okay.." She wiped her tears, "Good, give this to Vivienne," Albedo gave Klee his extra pistol leaving him with only one now, "Alright, you promise you'll be safe..?" She said while taking the gun. "I promise. You don't have to worry about anything." Albedo gently smiled, Klee nodded.
"We've got to go Albedo," Ei said and already started to leave the cell room, "Bye Klee, be safe." Albedo waved bye then left to follow Ei.

"I'm not sure what to do now, since I've killed my brother..I've fulfilled everything I needed to." Ei had her head down. "You know," he began, "When someones brother dies, they tend to be sad, but, since you killed you're own brother. That doesn't come for you does it?" Albedo looked at Ei who was still looking at the ground. Ei stayed quiet. "Mm," Albedo looked away. "You can go on, I want to look around this palace myself." Albedo stopped walking, "Will do," she responded then began running out the door, not wanting to be in the palace anymore.
Albedo walked up the stairs, grazing his fingers on the railing looking down onto the first floor. A bang caught his attention, a bullet grazed his cheek, making it bleed but not severely hurt him. He saw Kaeya, sweating, holding a gun with wide scared eyes. "Kaeya, you're just the person I was looking for!" Albedo smiled. It wasn't pleasant. "Stay away from me! I have guards coming right now!" Kaeya yelled, "Oh? I'm sorry.." Albedo snickered, "They're already dead,". "What..?" Kaeya was trembling in fear.
"Are you deaf? I said 'they're dead'." Albedo repeated, "Then I'll kill you myself!" Kaeya put two hands on the gun, Albedo sighed then with his thumb he wiped the blood off his cheek from the bullet grazing it. "If I can kill a whole village, I can kill you." Albedo licked the blood off his thumb then smirked up at Kaeya.
"Now, I'll give you two options." Albedo started to walk forwards towards Kaeya, which made him walk back slowly. "I kill you and take over Celeste City, or you can give me the throne and I'll let you live," Albedo spoke. "And what about my people?" Kaeya asked, "I can't say if they will live or die, most of them are probably already dead." Albedo sharp voice sent shivers down Kaeya's spine, making him have a gust of cold go through his body.
"You're crazy if you think I'm gonna hand over my throne to you," Kaeya teethed, "Then I'll just kill you." Albedo started to take out his gun from its holder, a loud bang echoed through the palace.
Albedos eyes grew wide and he looked at his arm, he had been shot. The bullet wound was throbbing with pain, and bleeding like crazy. He held him arm and screamed, "What the hell?!" He looked up and saw Kaeya was as surprised as him. His eyes focused to the person behind Kaeya. A woman, with brown hair, she looked like an angel. And that in fact was her name.
Kaeya looked over and saw Angel, "Angel?! What are you still doing here?! I thought you left—!" Angel shushed him, "We need to leave, now!" She said and grabbed Kaeya's arm, escaping somewhere.
Albedo winced at his pain, he held his arm as tight as he could. He felt like falling on the floor and screaming, but he wouldn't. Albedo looked over at a window with a curtain on it, he grabbed his knife and cut some of the curtain off, then tying it around his wounded arm.

Valentin got out of a car with a smile that soon faded when he saw the chaos happening, "What the hell..?" He muttered to himself in disbelief.
