The Wonders Of Zardain

To The Capital Of Migrith - Part 5 - Loyal No Matter The Cost

As Lucas is confronted by one of his old clan mates for answers, he prepares himself to show his resolve. What will be the outcome of this fight?

Both Lucas and his old teammate gets ready to fight... and then, a silence falls...

They both dash at each other and clash with their blades. A fierce fight begins as Lucas uses his agility and mastery to outdo his former clan's mate who is though is just as fast as him. Sparkles fly-out in intensity as they both engage in a dance of blades.

"So fast! I can barely follow their movements..." Iztas says to herself.

"Come on! spill it, what happened to Poldoras?!

I don't care who you are! Why should I have to tell you anything?" Asks Lucas.

Their blades clash once more sending sparks in the air.

"Vellex is the name, you ruined my life along with others and you seem to not even care!"

"I'll make you pay for what you did!" Screams Vellex.

"Vellex hein? I remember you being the clean up boy. It must have been tragic to deal with bodies every day!" Says Lucas while struggling his blade against Vellex's.

"Yes... you wouldn't get it would you? you spent all your days in the master's lounge, eating and drinking as you pleased... you were... special they said!" Vellex says as he pushes Lucas away.

"You where to bring a new age for the Vultures they said! But in the end, you brought disaster" Vellex screams with anger in his voice while he violently swings his sword and Lucas dodges backwards.

"But to me you were always a faint, a sad little boy who got lucky and feel directly into Poldoras's hands at the right time. Unlike the rest of us, you had it all..."

"After that night, I could finally prove who you really were but my victory was short lived... failure after failure... even the best amongst us would fail..."

"The territories we held for decades where taken, even during the Gathering, the other clans wouldn't respect us knowing that we couldn't retaliate..."

"We started losing members..."

"And you!... you simply fled like an animal with its tail between its legs... we knew exactly that you were the perpetrator."

Lucas's expression takes on an angered face as he looks deeply into Vellex's eyes and says "None of you know what happened and will never know!"

"Enough of this playing around!" Angrily expresses Vellex as he touch a small ruby on his sword.

Vellex's sword starts to glow with a red tint.

"I don't care anymore! You die here and now!" Vellex screams

"Not if you go down first!" Lucas responds

They both stare down at each other before dashing and clashing with their blades one final time passing past each other in a flash...

And then... a silence settles, very much similar to when they started fighting.

"Bugh" blood splatters on the ground... and Vellex falls down...

Lucas is victorious.

Lucas also fall to his right knee and holds his right upper harm as blood trickles down from his harm and in between his fingers.
