Laughter...

That's all I could hear....

That same stupid laugh...

I ran through the halls of Aramis' mansion, or some sick twisted version of it. Knowing him like I did, Zenin probably made Ara conjure an illusion so that I couldn't tell what was what. The whole time his laughter haunting me. I couldn't loose another one of my friends....not another one. Please....I had to find them.

As I turned the corner that should've lead me to Aramis' room, I saw these giant obsidian doors. And what was on them, made me want to vomit...

It was me and Zenin, kissing. He made my friend summon this? He was going to get it when I saw him. Anger and rage filling me up, I yelled and then punched the door with my bare fists. I had been training with Aramis prior to this, working on my hand to hand combat, but I didn't think I could do what I just did.

The door crumbled to black powder. Did I do that? Was I that strong now? Wait, the dust is moving around now. And I felt, for once in a long time before this war started....I felt safe. I closed my eyes as a cool wind blew around mom blowing my hair into my eyes. When I brushed it away, I looked down and saw three stars, and a black, heart shaped locket on the ground. I picked it up. It was cold...

Well, lockets are meant to be opened, and when I did, I wanted to cry. The photo inside was of all of us, before the war...

I put on the necklace...thanks Aramis. I smiled softly, he made the door crumble for me, and turned it into a necklace. Stygian iron. I stood there, with the dust around me, before I heard a loud cracking sound, and a scream following it.

"YOU WORTHLESS ROYAL SWINE!"

Another crack, another scream....

"I'LL KILL YOU FIRST!!!"

A third crack, but no more screaming.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" I heard Zenin yell. Aramis please, stop fighting him...you'll only get hurt more.

"I SAID F*CK YOU ZENIN!!!" N-No...Aramis, stop!

A final crack, a loud scream, but it was cut off.

I wasn't loosing him too! I took off down the long hallway. And when I stopped, I couldn't believe what I saw.

It looked like an overgrown jungle, but instead of vines, it was those foul chains. They were everywhere, and above a large pit, were the remains of my happy life.

Nosmas, Aramis, Ikumi, and Alexandra were all strung up by their wrists, their heads lowered. Ikumi and Alex seemed to be ok, only a couple bruises and scratches. I wish I could say the same for the boys. Nosmas had cuts, bruises, and several large gashes over his body. And Aramis, he looked the worst out of all of them. He had cuts all over his body, large slashes over his arms and legs. A broken nose, and his wrists were slowly dripping blood. The wrists looked freshly cut.

"Akuma! Please! Run!" He shouted at me. Fear in his dull eyes as his hands glowed, a thin veil surrounding me like a bubble.

"She's here?!" Zenin rushed out from behind a clump of chains. He looked around, but couldn't see me. Aramis, he covered me in the same illusion he used to hide his crown. Then Zenin walked up to Aramis again, growling. "Stop getting in my way!" He slapped Aramis across the cheek.
