Aphmau ran for so long. her legs wore out and collapsed. She didnt now how far she had gone but she reached crater. She then looked behind her and saw the wall. "Ugh I h-had gone in a c-circle!" She said, frustrated. She looked at the crater, seeing black stuff in the wreckage. A coursing pain shot through her as her vision blurred, the came the same thing she last saw in her dreams. The man in this area, with Zane. The land was not broken.

Her vision cleared, back at the crater she muttered "I-I shouldn't of f-felt... the p-pain.."

But when she looked behind her Laurance was there, holding a giant stick. He hit her in the head, knocking her out.

« Laurance's POV »

Laurance had a stick in his hand, before he heard her scream. It pierced the air like a knife. He found her kneeling at the crater.. the one Aaron sacrificed himself at. She seemed to have come back to reality as she muttered, "I-I shouldn't of f-felt... that p-pain."

She turned around and saw him. Before she could formally react, he hit her with the stick and she colapsed.

Laurance picked her up bridal style, running to Lucinda's tower, he explained the situation to her. She was shocked. Of course she had heard of Aphmau going missing but this. It was terrible. They went to the tower, going to the island. They went to Aphmau's old home, placing her on the bed. Not caring to put her in different clothing. Be put his head in his hands, sitting near the bed.

« Aphmau's POV »

She woke up and looked slightly to her right, seeing Laurance she quickly started to act as if she was still asleep. She waited to hear the soft, even breath of one who sleeps.

She quickly got up, grabing her weapons from the corner, not bothering to worry about her bag of cloths. He seemed to have brought back her helm, she took that too. Just as she ran out the door Laurance awoke with a slight jerk. He saw her run out and chased her.

Aphmau ran, trying to lose Laurance, who she knew was following her from the moment she left. She ran from him. But she knew she would lose him.. even if she didn't know the woods.

She stoped hearing the patter of running feet. Only the soft landing of feet in leaves as someone walked away.

She felt a shift, and her vision blurred except this time it was the same man, but he didnt look like he did in the other visions. He has a glassy look in his eyes and as she came toward him, he turned to an imp. She started to sob in this vision, pulling out a blade slicing the imp up.

Aphmau came back to the clearing shaking her head. She slowly pulled out my blade and shield scanning them again. She remembered the names, odd but the blade had the name, Shadowsworn, the shield was Darks' Loyalty. She had learned them when they were gifted to her. "Shadowsworn..."
She murmured.

She turned sharply getting into a defensive stance when she heared a rustling from some bushes. It was Laurance. He came out holding his hands up, trying to create a treaty.

Aphmau let out a slight sigh, "A-again, what do I h-have to do to g-get you to leave m-me be?"

He narrowed his eyes, "I won't, I'm not leaving you be"

She let out a tiny chuckle "W-well then.. its y-your death."

Aphmau lunged at him, swinging the sword past his head. "B-be careful.. Shadowsworn h-has not tasted b-blood in a m-millennia.."

Laurance's body statted to glow, as his shadow knight armor came, "Don't worry, this won't be easy."

Aphmau brought her shild up as he tried to take his sword and shove it towards her chest. She took her sword and sliced it on his arm, then she quickly pulled her blade back, bashing him in she chest with her shield. He fell to the ground the air knocked out of him, and she put a foot kn his chest looking down on him. "Any l-last words?" Aphmau said.

Closing his eyes he said "I have always loved you."

Aphmau closed her eyes and....
