LUCAS

The world seemed to freeze and time slowed as her soft locks brushed his bloody cheek as she fell into his arms. The Small gasp of pain made his eyes widen and hastily he pulled back to look at her. A panic overset his features and a roaring sound of agony slipped from his lips as he fell to his knees with her clutched in his arms. The world fell silent around him as blood soaked his torn clothes and his tears soaked hers.

Screams rang out louder then his own and the clash of metal filled the courtyard. The walls shook with brutal force and blood was spilled around Lucas as he held his lovers face in his hands. Gasping he pulled her head onto his lap, using his bloody hands to brush her hair back. His eyes fell on the diamond encrusted knife that protruded from her stomach and a growl left his lips.

Placing a soft kiss on her pale forhead he gently set her head down his eyes falling onto a dead gaurds sword. Stalking over to it he picked up the weapon from the pool of blood, staring down at the stranger. The blue blood stained garmets answered his troubling question, the castle was under attack.

A hoarse yell made his insided burn, tightening his hand on his sword he turned slowly his eyes falling on maximum who was indulged in a fight with three intruders. His gloved hand gripped his side with pain etched onto his face as he dodged another attack.

With a roar Lucas charged at them, plunging his sword into the ribs of one, and headbutting another. Aware of what was happening the last one abandonned maximum and quickly raised his weapon. A groan of pain from the knights lips as his hands slowly slid off his arms. With screams of agony the man fell to his knes his pain filled eyes filling with tears as blood spewed from his wounds.

Dodging a swing from the angry knight, he kicked the enemy in his back making the fool stumble to the ground. With a twirl of his sword lucas slammed the point into the knights leg, pinning him to the blood splattered earth.

"Sorry mate he's mine. "

Gritting his teeth lucas ignored the pain filled screams and stalked after maximum.

The prince had managed to crawl a few feet away, leaving behind a blood trail. His red and bloody face twisted in pain and concentration as he put one arm infront of the other.

Letting out a low feral growl lucas slammed his foot into the princes head, reliquishing in the muffled pain filled screams.

Squatting down he gripped the the princes head gritting his teeth in anger as the sputtering prince glared up at him. "Dont you dare touch me your worthless bastard. "He ground out as lucas grinned coldly at him gesturing to the blood dripping from maximums nose.

" you've got something there your majesty. "Bristling max struggled under him wincing when his wound burned fericously.

" why you little-" Max started blood spluttering from his mouth as lucas bashed his head into the ground mutiple times.

"Let me get that for you. "Grinning darkly lucas held his head into the ground clutching the sweaty blonde locks.

" you want to know something your highness?" He growled angrily over the shouts of orders and pounding of hooves.

Raising an eyebrow at the back of maxuims head he waited.

"Oh yes, right. "Raising the princes head he scowled at the huge gasp of air the prince drew in, his purple face now regaining color.

"Well your highness I'm waiting?" He growled yanking the princes head back until he yelped in pain.

"Just tell me! " he roared his face reddening in anger.
