Akoda was now sixteen and Hemea was fourteen, it had been seven years since the dragon and seven since the girl Kriiyolsil that disappeared. Her name still in Akoda's mind every time that he looked at his dragon scales. The two boys were able to leave the kingdom on their own and so they left for the day. Only a couple of hours after the kingdom alert bells started to ring and the boys hopped onto their horses and raced to the castle, swords in their hands ready to fight. Their father king Elrick walked to the two boys, "you need to gear up this could be deadly, we have a very skilled intruder that has killed thirty seven of our knights already" and prince Hemea's face went cold. Akoda didn't want to wait so he ran to find the intruder before his father could stop him and he ran fast. Kriiyolsil was watching him from the roof tops and she followed keeping her black hood on. Akoda ran towards the knights hall where he could warn them about the assassin intruder in the kingdom but he was stopped only yards away from the door when a scythe was thrown in front of him and he turned to see her, in the black hood and to see her gracefully jump off the roof top and to land by his side. She grabbed the scythe and looked at him. " You mustn't go in there it could be dangerous" she said to him " and why should i listen to you, I've never seen you and there's an assassin lurching around this kingdom, and if i was to be correct it would be you" Akoda looked at her and drew his sword. " It's not me you need to fight, I was sent to find this assassin and if you kill me than the killer will kill your father" she looked at Akoda and he put his sword down. She ran into the knights dinning hall " every one here needs to leave immediately" and they turned to look at her " your king is going to need protection from the threat of and assassin in the kingdom."
Knights from every table got up and ran out of the dinning hall and towards the castle. Akoda walked into the dinning hall after everyone ran out and someone came crashing through the wall, the figure stood up and wiped wall dust off of his shirt. When the dust cleared Kriiyolsil recognized the person, he was wearing a grey hood one that her father gave to her older brother, she was angry now. " Lucypher what are you doing?" he smiled at her " hey lil sis long time no see, dad just wanted to send me on a little job, i gotta kill this king and than my job will be done" Akoda drew his sword once again but Kriiyolsil moved it away from him " he's to strong for you to fight" she said and a burst of dark energy surrounded the room. " Prince you should leave before you get hurt" she looked at Akoda and another wave of energy filled the room but not as strong as hers. " You wanna stop me sis, cause its not happening" Lucypher looked at Kriiyolsil and his eyes squinted and anger filled his eyes. " Leave this kingdom before I make you" more of her dark energy filled the room and Lucypher drew out his sword, it was five inches long and had an almost four foot blade.
Lucypher ran at Kriiyolsil with amazing speed and his sword hit her hand but he was flung back as Kriiyolsil released his sword. " Your stronger than i thought there sis, I'm a little surprised" He said and a wide smile was dawn across his face, " looks like I'm gonna have fun with this, just kinda remind me of when we were kids" and the smile widened. Kriiyolsil ran at her brother and he lost sight of her and with just one swift movement of her hand she cut a wound into his side and was back again with his blood on her fingers. She looked at him " i would have expected you to catch me but no i guess not" and Lucypher looked at his side, covered in blood, he was surprised that she could move so fast and not need a weapon to wound him. "No weapon c'mon it would be a little more fun if you did" she looked at him, "if you want a weapon than ill give it to you" and out of her hand appeared a black scythe longer than her body and its blade was just as long as her. Akoda was at the door and watched her as she hit her brothers sword and with one blow from her scythe his sword shattered.
She moved so quick that she got to her brother's side and held the scythe to his throat, " you done playing your little game, cause i think that you should leave and never harm the people of this kingdom again, cause if you do ill be back and next time i wont go so easy on you" she let him go. He walked out of the dinning hall and she followed, after hey got out side he disappeared. Akoda looked at her as she turned around, " whats your name?" he asked her and she looked at him, " you already know my name, its not the first time we met" she looked at him. He pulled out one of the scales " Kriiyolsil" he said looking up to where she was but she had already disappeared. He ran into the castle and saw his father with his little brother, the intruder is gone father and the girl was hear to protect you" he said and his father looked at him, Akoda pulled out the dragon scales and his fathers eyes widened, "where is she now?" he asked, " she's already gone father" Akoda said in disappointment. He was so close to her but yet so far away.
She was not far away as he thought but on the roof tops of the castle was where she was keeping a close eye on the kingdom's safety. Looking out to the lands afar she pulled out a scale and it shined with a purple and golden glow, it was on of the dragon scales from when she first met the royal family, she smiled at it and put it back into her pocket. Nothing was going to happen to this kingdom nor the people inside it, she was their protector but yet no one knew about it other than the prince Akoda.
