 "GAH!" Eirika shouted as she slammed against the wall. Byleth got prepared to blast her with a spell as Ephraim hit him from behind. "Ephraim!"

Ephraim grunted, "He's trying to get rid of us! Meta Knight already flew away but Byleth wants to kill us! He already killed Marth and Ike..."

"I..." Byleth smiled at them and blasted them. The two jumped out of the way and got prepared to attack again. Eirika jumped into the air and slammed her blade against Byleth. He rolled to the side and got prepared to blast Eirika. Ephraim jumped in the way and attacked Byleth.

Byleth asked, "Why... aren't my spells WORKING!? RAFAL!!" Rafal dashed into the scene and looked toward Eirika and Ephraim. They got their weapons ready and jumped out of the way as Byleth attempted to cast a spell against them. Byleth got his sword out and whipped the two.

"AGH!" They shouted as they landed onto the ground harshly. They looked over and saw Rafal dashed at them. Eirika slammed her sword against Rafal's axe and the two pushed against each other. Ephraim then hit Rafal from behind as he fell backward.

Byleth smiled at them as he casted a spell. The spell blasted them away and they looked over in anger. Byleth got ready to throw another spell at them. Eirika jumped to the side and threw her sword at Byleth. However, he caught it and threw it to the side. "Nothing more but a weakling..."

Eirika shouted, "I WILL NEVER LET YOU GET TO US!" Byleth smiled at her as he casted another spell. Eirika jumped out of the way and looked over toward Byleth in anger. Ephraim dashed in and swung his lance but Rafal managed to throw his axe at Ephraim.

"Tough luck Ephraim!" Rafal mocked. Ephraim and Eirika looked at the two and then got together. Byleth threw Ephraim's lance and it nearly hit Ephraim in the process. He picked it up as the two held their weapons up high against the two.

Ephraim grunted, "Nothing is going to kill us... not even you..."

"I actually will be the whole reason why you will be killed! You can say that all you want but nothing will change that you will be DEAD!" Byleth laughed. Eirika and Ephraim kept their grips tight on their weapons as Rafal walked over slowly, getting ready to throw his axe.

Ephraim ordered, "STAY BACK!"

"I thought you wanted to fight?"

"I NEVER WANTED TO FIGHT!?" Ephraim yelled as he swung his lance. Byleth jumped back and got prepared to blast Ephraim. However, Eirika jumped in the way and deflected the attack from Byleth. It nearly hit Rafal in the process, the two looked over, they were beyond enraged.

Byleth got his sword ready and whipped the two. He whipped them multiple times and then attacked them with a dark spell. They fell onto the ground and looked up in fear. "TIME TO FUCKING DIE!!" The two hugged one another tightly then, Ephraim rolled to the side to dodge the blast attack.

Ephraim pushed Eirika ahead and looked toward Byleth. Byleth kept on swinging his sword around, getting ready to attack the two. "Eirika! GO! TELL THE HEROES OF WHAT'S GOING ON!"

Eirika shouted, "I AM NOT GOING UNLESS YOU COME WITH ME EPHRAIM!" Ephraim looked at Eirika and then back at Byleth. He prepared to do his last attempt to kill Eirika and Ephraim. "EPHRAIM!" Ephraim and Eirika looked over as Eirika shoved him out of the way as Byleth blasted Eirika.

"EIRIKA!!" Ephraim shouted as he clutched onto his shoulder. Byleth looked down and saw how terribly injured she was, but she was still breathing. He looked over at Ephraim and smiled. "NOT A CHANCE!" Ephraim slammed his lance against Byleth and kicked him down onto the ground. Byleth soon opened a portal behind them.

The two looked back and soon realized that they were being sucked in the portal. Byleth kept on making the portal stronger, they were able to move out the way and attacked Byleth. He fell backward and looked toward Rafal. "Go get them before I find a way to THROW YOU AWAY." Rafal looked at Byleth and nodded.

Eirika and Ephraim got themselves ready to fight and then soon they slammed their blades against Rafal's axe. He dropped it and Byleth became infuriated with them. "Let's see how you like that!" Byleth glared at Eirika and slowly got up. Then he shot a spell at them. Eirika got wrapped in some strange sticky substance and fell onto the ground.

Ephraim groaned, "With that crown he's so much stronger... not even the heroes could find a way to fight against him..." He looked toward Eirika and dashed to grab her. Byleth walked closer to them getting ready to cast yet another spell. "How many spells do you have?!"

Byleth laughed, "The more power I have the more spells I gain access to! After getting my hands on the crown I have the whole set! I'M UNSTOPPABLE!!" The two looked at him and then at each other. Soon Ephraim made a run for it. "GET BACK HERE I HAVEN'T FINISHED PLAYING WITH YOU!!"

"EPHRAIM!" Eirika shouted. The two collapsed onto the ground and looked over to Byleth. Byleth looked at them and smiled.

Byleth giggled, "Someone dies today!!" Ephraim quickly grabbed a substance and threw it at Byleth. It exploded on him and Rafal as the two made a getaway as fast as possible. Once it cleared, Byleth saw that they were gone. "Those... bastards... I will find them... AND THEN KILL THEM FOR BETRAYING ME!!"
