Behold, The One {Book 1 Of The Behold Series}

~Chapter 7~ Alexander's Fury

Recently on Behold, The One:
Celestine beheaded a Celestial Shadow, a creature that could be good or bad depending on its intentions. Since it was Winter, they were expected to dress warm. Due to overheating though, Alexander became uncontrollable. He tackled Gaia and now, he has to deal with Electra and Celestine as Oceana is too scared to interfere.

Chapter 6's Ending:
Oh no he didn't.
---------------------------------------------------------

   "GET BACK HERE ALEXANDER BLAZE!" Electra shouted as she flung her whip at Alexander and activated it.

   Although the Electric Whip could give him an electric shock, for once, it did not. Instead, the whip got burned up in flames and he stabbed Electra in the stomach.

   "AHHHH!" Electra screamed as she was thrown back into her room.

   Electra whimpered in pain as she clutched her stomach which was bleeding profusely. Sweat trickled down her forehead as she bit back a scream. Filled with rage, Celestine took her sword and summoned her feathered-wings.

    "Heh, so you want to fight and end up like the others? Oh it's on." Alexander hissed as he lunged at Celestine.

   The swords clashed once again, creating that deafening sound. Their gaze intent, the duo continued to attack each other. As if Celestine was his mirror, she countered Alexander's attack with the same sword tatic. Soon, Alexander started to tire out. Celestine stopped for a moment, giving Alexander a chance to subdue her. He jabbed his sword forward, attempting to stab Celestine but to no avail.

   She hopped onto his sword, jumping higher in height as she did so. Using a simple flap of her wings, she launched herself onto Alexander. She flicked his sword away and started to tackle him.

   "I won't just let you hurt my friends, and I WON'T LET YOU HURT YOURSELF!" Celestine exclaimed, shocking Alexander for a single moment.

   Celestine did not budge, hoping Alexander would revert back to his normal self on his own. To her dismay, he swept Celestine off her feet and kicked her into a wall. She was too naive...

   Calling onto her magic, stardust blew everywhere. It blurred Alexander's vision, confusing him. Using this to her advantage, Celestine lunged at Alexander and attacked him once again as she cleared the dust.

   Their sword met at the center point, making it hard for each other to subdue the other. The duo pressed on, using tons of strength.

   "Celestine, we shouldn't end it like this." Alexander suggested with eyes still glowing bold red.

   Is he... No, he couldn't be serious.

   Celestine disappeared into stardust, disappearing from Alexander's sight. He smirked as she walked towards Oceana's room. The moment he opened it, Oceana shot him with a few water darts before trapping him to the Living Room wall with water chains.

   To their surprise, stardust formed around Alexander's sword, taking it away from him. The stardust caged it as it landed on the Living Room table at least 3 meters away. To Oceana's shock, Alexander broke free of his chains. He ran so quickly, neither the stardust nor Oceana could react fast enough to seize his sword.

   Alexander, with sword in hand, charged at Oceana. She formed a water sword and started parrying Alexander's attacks. As expected though, Alexander managed to pin Ocena to the wall. He was about to stab her when Celestine appeared out of nowhere and lunged onto Alexander.

   "I don't care how mad you are, I demand you to stop attacki-" Celestine cut herself off as she bit back a scream.

   She glanced at her right wing to realise that it had gone from pure white to bold red and same went for the other wing. Ignoring everything else, she pulled Alexander closer to her.

   "Alexander, look at me." She commanded, staring into Alexander's eyes.

   "Look. At. Me." She demanded, Alexander did as told.

   "We, are your friends. Stop attacking us, the people who serve and help you." Celestine continued as her eyes softened.

   Slowly, Alexander's eyes softened as it turned back to his eye colour of amber orange. After that very moment, Celestine's eyes closed gently as she fell onto the floor. Her sword and wings disappeared into thin air as she stayed there, limp.

   "W-what have I done..." Alexander muttered as he dropped his sword.

   He kneeled down before Celestine, begging for her to wake.

   "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt any of you guys at all." He apologised, close to tears.

   Meanwhile, Oceana was healing Electra's wound with her expert medic skills. She did her signature water sitches which came in handy. The duo exchanged soft glances as Oceana stopped the bleeding of Electra's wound.

   "Thanks." Electra said, blushing profusely as she went over Alexander's shoulder.

   She gave him a sad smile as Oceana went to check on Poor Gaia who was still lying in his room. Oceana used her water bed to transport Gaia before Alexander's eyes. She had a plan up her sleeve.

   "Oh no! Gaia, I'm so sorry..." Alexander apologised once again as his eyes welled up in tears.

   To his shock, Gaia got up and slapped Alexander in the face.

   "It was fine that you did that to me because I understood your anger. But I cannot forgive you for stabbing my sister and Celestine. Worst of all, you stabbed Celestine's wings! That is her special tool during battle and you just ruined it." Gaia explained with a hint of annoyance in his voice.

   Ruined it... The words echoed.

   I... ruined her... Alexander fretted as he ran to his room to drown in his sorrow. Why, why did I have to become like this. I should have controlled myself to begin with! Ugh, how was I so foolish?!

   Out of the blue, somebody knocked on his door. Alexander refused to open it as he wanted to stay alone. To his shock, the door was busted open. And not busted by anyone, it was busted down by Celestine. Her wings were back to their normal shade of white and she did not look sick at all.

   "It wasn't your fault!" She exclaimed with tears in her eyes as well.

   "I'm sorry I couldn't tell you earlier. King Robert told Commander Hurricane, my father, to send me to go along with you on your journey.

   Celestine was... sent?
