"Grainger! Come back!" Malice yelled chasing after him. He pushed her away with his abilities.
"No I shouldn't have done that! I killed everyone! I killed the men, and the women, and my grandfather. I hate them. They are animals." Grainger snapped- turning to face Malice.
"Embrace your powers! You could be more powerful than you could ever imagine!" Malice yelled as she pulled him to her- manipulating gravity.
"What do you mean more powerful? I am not aloud to use my powers and I am the only knight in the galaxy that has them. I am feared by others in this galaxy because of these powers and it's all your fault. They are afraid I would turn out like you." Grainger retorted as he proceeded to walk away
"Your powers are only limited by your mindset. You could level a city if you tried hard enough. You are not as powerful as me. You're weak, like your father." Malice mocked. Grainger turned around and yelled, "You don't have the right to speak of my father that way! If anything you are weak because you gave into the darkness. I will not follow down that path!"
The fire left Grainger's eyes and they faded back into their natural bright blue. He closed his eyes and disappeared. Grainger teleported back to his ship and at down. What am I going to do! I have messed up badly! I can't go back to Rouge, they'd kill me! Grainger pondered. He decided that he would return to his mother and give in. He raced into the castle to find Malice and bumped right into her.
"Grainger, are you ready to join the dark side now?" Malice questioned.
"What choice have I? I can't return to Rouge and I.... I don't know what to do..." Grainger croaked as he teared up. These where tears of regret. Malice nodded and pointed him to a room. Grainger went to the door and opened it with his powers.
"Anna!" Grainger screamed as she shot a blaster right at him. It hit him in the face and blew him back. Quickly, he got up and wiped the blood from his cheek.
"Surprised to see me Grainger? Think you could kill my father and my troops without me knowing? What happened to you?!" Anna sneered.
Malice appeared from a tornado of fire as Grainger lie on the ground in front of Anna holding his hand to his face. Anna, without lowering her gun at Grainger, pulled out a second gun and pointed it at Malice.
"Put the blasters away, Anna." Malice demanded.
"Malice. Just because your my sister doesn't mean I will let you leave alive. Same with you, Grainger." Anna declared as she turned her attention to Grainger.
Malice raised her hand and shot fire at Anna. Anna shot the blaster at Malice, blowing away her fireball.
"What's wrong Anna, afraid to use your powers?" Malice taunted with a smirk.
"Grainger, I don't know what she has told you but it's all lies. She did the same thing to Valarina and me! If there is any faith left in you, do the right thing and slay that beast!" Anna yelled gesturing to Malice.
"She is lying Grainger. Kill her!" Malice shouted.
Grainger looked at Anna and then back at Malice. He knew he couldn't kill his mother but then he would be killed. He couldn't kill Anna or he would be hunted by the entire galaxy.
"I.....I... I can't!" Grainger stuttered.
"Grainger! Kill her or I'll kill you!" Anna declared. Grainger rose to feet and looked shocked at Anna.
"I am sick and tired of this! I can't fight alone anymore! She is my only family and my mother! She is pure evil but you're no better Anna! Look at you! You are ordering a son to kill his mother!" Grainger argued.
"I am going to count to ten and if Malice isn't dead, I'll pull this trigger. I have always been right about you! I knew when you where born that you where the one! I knew once I saw that fire in your eyes that you where going to be a problem and despite my better judgement, I let you live! I was hoping you would die on Maverick and I wouldn't have to do anything!" Anna rebutted.
"You knew I was on Maverick and you didn't do anything!" Grainger yelled as his eyes turned red and his hair turned black. His skin turned pale white as fire and lightning filled the room. Grainger rose into the air and yelled furiously as the electricity filled his body. Anna watched intensively as she witnessed Grainger embrace his inner evil. Grainger struggled his whole life to balance the dark and the light within him. If he embraced the light, he would never be accepted my his mother and nothing would change the fact that he was never to be trusted with the galaxy because he was the son of the most evil person in the universe. If he embraced the dark, everything everyone had ever thought of him would become reality. He would be a disgrace and me looked upon as a villain. This is why Anna and the rest of the hierarchy told him to suppress his powers. However, if he stuck with the light side, he would never become royalty. If he embraced the evil that was already coursing through his veins, he would become the Prince of Albea Point. This was the subconscious decision Grainger was making as he rose into the air. Malice was still his mother no matter how evil she was and the galaxy would never forget this. This would only cause more disputes in his future. People already protest him being a Knight of Ragnarok. The one time he used his powers, people tried to kill him and called him the devil. Grainger couldn't leave his house without someone telling him he wasn't "good enough" or he was "untrustworthy with the kingdom because of his genetics". Grainger couldn't live him whole life with people acting this way towards him. He knew he would never be accepted by society and this would always taunt Grainger. After all, he was only sixteen and had to battle his emotions. Deep inside, he loved Malice but would never let this emotion rise to the top. He would never tell her. He couldn't. Grainger accepted his fate and aloud himself to give in. He knew it was wrong and that there was no turning back but Grainger had been alone his entire life, he was categorized as an abomination and a dishonor. Even when he was only around eight years old, people began to label him without even knowing him. They didn't know he longed to find his place and find his long-lost parents. They didn't know he would grow up to he a hero. The problem was, neither did Grainger. Dark thoughts clouded Grainger's thoughts as he became the Prince of Albea Point.
