Demons and Lords~ A Gaurence/Larroth Fanfiction

Chapter Ten~

Garroth sat up against the wall, his head in his hands. He had gotten zero sleep the night before due to all the screaming.

That's right, screaming.

After Laurence went down through the trapdoor, there was nothing but him yelling and screaming about how he was hell. Not that he was in hell, but that he was hell.

Garroth was scared and confused. What was Laurence doing down there and why was he so angry?

After a while he heard the trap door unlock. It got pushed open and Laurence came crawling out. He was covered in sweat, blood and tears. He was breathing heavily as he collapsed on the ground.

Garroth hesitantly went over to Laurence. "Hey.." He muttered. "G-Get away from me I'm not safe right now." Laurence said. "What happened..?" Garroth asked. "I said get away from me!" Laurence yelled, his voice going dark.

Garroth froze before scrambling a good seven feet away from Laurence.

Laurence groaned and covered his face. "I'm sorry.." He said. "It's uh.. It's fine." Garroth said. Laurence shook his head, trembling as he got to his feet.

"Can you.. explain what happened just now..?" Garroth asked. Laurence sucked in a deep breath through his teeth before answering. "Once a month, a Shadow Knight without his or her immortality will go through these spells of pure violence.. Some can control it, others can't.." Laurence said.

Garroth nodded. "I see." He said. "I'm sorry you had to hear that.." Laurence said. "It's okay.." Garroth said

"..Were you scared? You look pretty shaken up." Laurence said. "A little, mostly because I didn't know what was going on.." Garroth said. "Okay." Laurence said, looking away.

Garroth stood up. "Do you hear that?" He asked. "No.." Laurence said, looking around. At that moment the door to the cabin broke down.

There stood a man with Raven Black hair and Teal eyes. Zenix was behind him followed by three other Shadow Knights. "See, I told you." Zenix said.

Garroth looked at them in complete horror as Laurence tensed up. "Laurence, you damn traitor!" The man with the black hair yelled.

Laurence gripped onto the hilt of his sword that as hung on his belt. "How'd you find me." He asked through gritted teeth. "Heh, Zenix is actually smarter than he looks." The man said. "Geeennee don't be mean." Zenix pouted.

Gene rolled his eyes. "Hand him over." He commanded at Laurence. "No." Laurence said, standing in front of Garroth as if to shield him.

"Shad is willing to forgive you if you just give him to us.. You can still gain your immortality." Gene said, trying to persuade Laurence.

"Never!" Laurence yelled. Gene growled and pulled out his sword from its scabbard. "Last chance, Zvahl! Shad needs that's power!" Gene yelled.

Laurence pulled out his own sword. "Stay back." He said through gritted teeth. "Yeah no." Gene hissed as he ran at Laurence, kicking him in the stomach.

Laurence fell back, the air being knocked out of his lungs. Zenix ran over and took his sword, plunging it through the back of Laurence's armor, making it so Laurence couldn't get up.

Gene ran at Garroth, and Laurence was rendered helpless, he couldn't help Garroth.
