[Castle Callaghan]

Connor: I've been craving for your death after what you did to my grandfather. 

Alaric: Nicholas was a fool to fight me when all he'll do is sleep for the rest of his miserable existence, his death was too kind for what i'm about to do is question thy life for eternity.

they circle around each other, seeing who'll strike first, then Connor lunges at Alaric with his sword but he counters the attack with his own sword attack, he tried to go for the legs, but Alaric jumped over Connor and swings the sword at the boy, who ducks down as the fight goes into the kitchen.

Cordelia: hm, my, my, the entire castle is a battle ground for the two warriors, my love's just toying with him at the moment. 

[kitchen]

Connor and Alaric were still fighting, the boy decided to grab a knife and try dual wielding at the Black Knight, who just sighs, thinking the fight is a waste of time, or so Connor thought as Alaric kicks him in the shin as Connor uses the knife to throw at Alaric, who throws his own knife to counter the other. 


[metal factory]

Connor was grabbed by Alaric as he was thrown into the metal factory as the workers were watching them duel on the catwalk, some of the blacksmiths were egging Alaric on as the others were encouraging Connor to beat ass, seeing him on one leg gives him an idea, not knowing that Alaric was thinking the same.

Connor: how about I plan a trip for you!

Alaric: shall we try next fall.

as the Black Knight trips Connor over, causing him to fall to the ground, landing next to his torturer Gerald, who laughs at him, causing Connor to push him towards the spot that Alaric was about to land, he was about to speak until he was cut in half by Alaric's sword as those who hate him cheered for the Black Knight.

Alaric: Lloyd taught you well Connor, no wonder Arthur sees you as a candidate for his cause, after i slay you, i shalt parade your body to your friends and the princess, breaking their minds as i ride along Camelot.

Connor: you leave their minds out of your head and LEAVE IGRAINE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!!

Alaric: a boy in love, how romantic.

they fought through the hallway as many paintings were destroyed as statues break, vases smash and even 3 maids were killed in the crossfire, Alaric then pushed Connor over to the tallest tower as they were on another catwalk with a lookout that can see other kingdoms. 

Alaric: join me child, don't make me destroy you as i did Nicholas.

Connor:  FAT CHANCE, BLACK KNIGHT!!

then Alaric did an overhead swing, which gave Connor an advantage and struck Alaric under his arm, causing the man to grunt in pain, he was bleeding, he then began to smile as his attacks become too aggressive for Connor to counter, the Black knight then broke his defenses, disorientating him, then what happens next would change him.

SLICE

Connor: FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!

Connor not only had his hand cut off, but his face received a scar across his face, causing some members of the Knights of Power, mostly Kiba and team JNPR, to overthink their path.

he then crawled to the edge as Alaric tells him that there's no hope for him, then he looks down as he suffers from vertigo. 

Alaric: oh boy, you have made me get thrills that would make me feel younger as I won many wars and many battles, i heard Raphael had you in his cowardly hands.

Connor: (in pain) the fuck do you know him?

Cordelia: he was our squire until he and his whore and spawn betrayed us for greedy purposes.

Alaric: tell me boy, what did they ever tell you about your heritage?

Connor: that i was the only weakling in a bloodline of superheroes from the Founding of Union, my former father, Raphael, told me you killed my birth father!!

Alaric: no........ I am your true father.

Cordelia: as i am thy mother.

[Connor POV]

no fucking way, they're LYING, I KNOW IT!! 

I looked at Alaric and Cordelia with shock and confusion, there's no fucking way I'm their son, my tormentors were just as surprised as i am, those kids are my brothers and sister!?

me: no, your lying, IT'S NOT TRUE, ITS FUCKING BULLSHIT!!

Alaric: tis the truth child, you are the baby that the O'Connells stole, feel your blood, both me and your mother made your life.

me NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!

as i was crying, i felt betrayed, Maximus said that the baby they lost was alive but i never expect it to be me! Please God, why was i lied to, WHY!!! 

[3rd person POV]

as Connor was crying, Alaric was standing up, he knew his son would feel betrayed by Raphael, he walked to Connor and asked.

Alaric: i knew you would feel different, being betrayed by your so-called family after they tricked you into being a part of them, join me son, and together we shall smite Raphael and his expanding family for his sins of deceiving you.

Connor: if O'Connell's going to die, I'LL DO IT MYSELF!

as he fell off the balcony, causing the Black Knight to reach for him as the family look over the edge, seeing the Autobot Windblade grab Connor as she flew off to Camelot.

Cordelia: with 3 weeks left, Connor has now known who his true family is.

Alaric: he will question everything, even his purpose in life.
