My father layed there as Aden puts his hand to the ground and as I blink my fathers body disappears, and all that is left is Aden standing there looking at me with his deep grey eyes. I was unable to resist his stare and before I knew it he was in front of me, face to face, noses touching, and my heart began to beat faster and faster. He then takes me into his warm arms and pulls me in tight and whispers "your father will be alright, I sent him to the infirmary, do not worry."

"I am not done with you just yet" I hear a staggering voice with heavy breathing from behind me. I push Aden away and turn to see that my brother Liam is standing back up and ready to fight again. "Deuterium, Milan Now!" As he screamed I hear two swords being scabbard and then I hear screams coming from the right and left becoming louder as they are running toward me, becoming closer with every second that goes by.

"Still followers I see" I hear Aden wisper as my brothers are getting closer. "Don't worry, I'll take care of this" he comtinued as he tried to push me away.

"Don't you dare, these are MY brothers" I speak as I stand my ground, and grab Aden's forearm as he put his hand on my shoulder and I turn around and thrust him back with my hands to his chest. He landed a bit away, behind me and then stood there watching my every move. I then return my gaze toward my brothers, looking left then right to find my opening to dodge their attack. Then I realized my chance so I changed my stance and began to dodge.

"Goodbye brother" I hear my brothers say in sync as they both are turning to swype their swords and kill me.

I dodge Milan's clean right swype and Demetrium's left thrust forward. I felt my body telling me to jump but I didn't. Instead I grabbed both my brothers' shoulders and thrusted with my whole body weight and pushes them to the ground and as I let go I swyped my hands between them pulling the swords away so they do not kill themselves and then take the swords into my hands and spin them toward them to have it against their throat before they land to the ground.

I now stand their between them not have moved an inch from my position with them laying facedown on the floor with the swords at their neck with a smile on my face as they notice the swords position, and their face flushes white. "You may feel your life is more important than mine but you are still underestimating me. You have so much to live for, why die now?" I speak without hesitation as my smile fades and I pull the swords away from their neck. "But..." I continued as I thrusted the swords through their calf anchoring them to the ground but missing all main arteries and bone, and I hear their scream in pain. "...I can't have you interfere, so stay still while i take care of your brother" I speak with tension building in my voice.

"We aren't done with you" Milan speaks while grasping the bottom of my overcoat but I shove off his hand and step forward out of his reach.

"oh dear brothers, you need to relax, you are loosing blood, and the more you move, you will surely die." I glance at their calfs as they faint and then to Aden "do you mind taking these two children to the infirmary and get them bandadged up before they bleed out?" I ask Aden and he nods as I look back toward Liam and I hear the Swords being pulled out of their calfs.

As I look toward Liam I see his face flushed of color as if he no longer needs to fight, but then I notice his eyes wide. "H..HOW..HOW ARE YOU ABLE? WHERE DID THAT POWER, THAT NEW YOU COME FROM?" Liam spoke as he hesitated to keep eye contact with me.

"Liam, my sweet sweet strategist brother. You have that brain working over time trying to figure it out huh?" I smile and pause for a few seconds still looking at Liam as he still tries to escape my eyes. "You might have the brain, but that by itself won't help you, you must use your heart aswell when you fight me. I have a proposition for you.." I continue as he nods "if you are able to beat me now, I will be your servant, I will back down as king, and you may take the throne..." He nods amd smiles as he mutters something under his breath that I could not hear then gets in his stance and draws his sword. "But if you are unable to beat me, you will live your life as my warfare strategist." I stop awaiting his reply.

"Stop the chattering, I am ready to take my rightful place as king, if you aren't dead you can teach me, but I'll make sure you are dead" Liam replies as his smile grows more grinch like.

"Then shall we begin?" I reply to him and see him bow and I do the same.

*punch*

"Liam you are still unable to fathom the real power you get from using your heart" I speak still holding my fist against his chest.

"B..u.t...How?" He speaks as he spits out blood and pain begins to go through his body.

"A true King does not fight from greed and lust for power, wealth and land. A true kind fights from his love for his kingdom, his family and to gain respect." I sigh and continue to speak "but you are stubborn, so maybe this will help you understand that I am your king, and that you should not mistaken my kindness for weakness."

*BAM*

I let go of my fist from his chest that is holding him up and thrust my knee up, makinf contact with his chin making him lift off the ground and land on his back, chin torn open, blood splattered all over him and half dead. "What happened?" I hear Aden speak as I turn to look at him.

"Just take him to the infirmary, fast. I'll meet you at my fathers room. I have something to do before I meet with my father." I spoke as I ran toward him and then put my hand around his waist. "Don't Let my brothers die" I spoke before letting go and running out of the room.
