We arrive at that dark castle, i just want to blow it up, but that wouldn't make me better than them, so... "lets go in." Frank nods to me as we carefully try to avoid the view of the guards. They have black armor, the dimness of today makes the details on their armor hard to make out, but i can see on their armor a dim green dragon symbol on their chest, similar to Lilath's shield. The guards have no idea we are here, but they are propared for it, they want me dead afterall... their positioning makes it, so that we have no path where we won't get seen. Do you have any idea how we'll get past them?" I whisper to Frank as he is stuck in thought, his white bushy hair shining like beautiful silk. He shakes his head, still stuck in thought. If we run, we would have a chance, but also the bigger chance of getting stabbed... is that our only option? Or is there somehow a more safe option? I doubt it honestly, i mean look at us. Its dark we are basically half blind here and try to sneak into the most protected place in this world. That sounds insane and yet, here we are. "What other choice do we have?" Frank looks at me sternly. "I know it may sound strange, but i really don't want to risk it." That sounds Like Frank in a crisis. Its understandable after the insanity of this place. "It doesn't sound strange, frank, but im starting to lose hope in any other way-" "Fellow Guards! Our Master wants to have a meeting with you because of the faulted security measures Recently!" A big guard says coming from the castle. "Thats ironic" frank whispers, chuckiling a bit. It also is kinda convinient, but i digress. We sneak into the dark treasure room, which is easy cause here's not a single guard. We see the ruby after walking down a dark stone hallway, it feels as if the ruby is calling for me. It looks so beautiful, i just want to have it in my hand. Its not a trap i can tell, just like i know it couldn't have been Lilath's idea alone to read my diary. We get closer and closer to gem, it feels so big, i can already feel it in my hands. But my mission is to destroy it, the wall next to me should be enough if i throw the ruby hard against it. We get close to the ruby, but then a guard chases me and puts a towel infront of my face and me makes me breath it. I scream for Frank to run away which he does before i fall unconscious.






I wake up in a dimm lighted cell, it is light by candles standing on a wooden table a few feet away from my cell. I hear a familiar voice chuckling: "well well well, look who's awake" "who are you and did you catch me!?" "Call me nevar dear, and why, i could ask you the same, max." I hate that king, he doesn't know what the gem and his army is capable of. He instead uses weapons like guns. He doesn't use the dark magic his heritage is known for, thats probably what killed his dragons, as there are none here. "Where are the dragons, spycho?" I seem to have hit a nerve with that question as he points his sharp sword throught bars of my cage, nearly hitting me. "Don't ask about that! Im also not a spycho!" I beg to differ. Anyways. "So why specifically me?" "You know why, Max, you could change your appearence and your name, but you can't change beating my game over and over!" It always was a game with toys, before i arrived in this place, thats all i ever thought of this place, toys. "But that will end tonight!" He gets with his sword closer to my face. "Any last words," "you know you will also die if you kill me, right?" "I don't care, you have been the biggest inconvinience in the span of my entire Heritage!" "Then kill me, this world has brought too many actual deaths, it be better if it get destroyed." "Im just going to let you in there. I doubt you need anything." He walks away, his black cape flies through the air like a graceful raven flying through ashes. "I thought you wanted to kill me?!" "Don't test me, kid." I suppose it makes sense that he calls me a kid, i was 12 the last time i was actually here. "And what if I do test you?" I say jokingly. "Don't" "alright, mister no fun" "What did you say?!" "Ah! Nothing..." im kinda bored at this point, i know im kidnapped, but nevar is no fun as a captor, i mean, the dark dragon king has no properties as a love interest, how boring. "Master!" A guard from before goes up to the dark dragon king. "The white haired escaped!" I sigh in relief as i hear that Frank was able to escape. "You love him, don't you?" Nevar looks at me with an eerie smile. "You would do anything for him, wouldn't you?" "What are you implying?" Im scared, what is his plan? "He's going to go back to get you, isn't he?" His plan frightens me, he knows frank will come back, he probably knows that from the past. He knows every part of past, from my favorite color to my deepest fears. He is trying to be my biggest fear, yet doesn't understand what made moonchester a scary foe, but he is getting there. "Well well well, you like that, don't you, pet?" Nevar says chuckling, knowing im scared. "I know you're not going to let me be free, but why are you doing any of this? Why are you bombing places where i have been seen?" The black dressed king chuckles in my face, not giving an answer to my question. His chuckle is bonechilling, giving me the worst goosebumps. He is the single reason this place isn't as beautiful as it ones was. Its because of him that the fairy garden is burnt down, some of my favorite places are bombed, and modern weapons are here. "I can read some of your thoughts, max." "What?!" Im flabbergasted. "Im not the reason guns are here, you should know that. They are here because you grew up." Im kinda confused at this point.
