She was only a little girl, She didn't deserve to die like this.
Altair's heart was pounding like a volcano erupting.
Guilt, that was all he felt.
He let Lily die, then Karyin, and now Lilith is dead. It was all his fault, he wasn't strong enough. He was never strong, enough.
While Altair was buried in his thoughts, the killer had began to make his move. He came closer, and closer, and even more closer. The killer brought up his katana, ready to strike. The killer looked like an ancient warrior that is unknown in this world. It seemed like he was prepared. Like he had done this many times before. He was an expert at killing things, but not just things, people too. People like Lilith.
Altair snapped into reality. His eyes full of fury. Altair was going to take revenge, and it was going to be painful for the samurai. Just as the samurai swung his sword at him, Altair jumped back. He was mad, no, more than mad. Altair was furious. More furious than when Lily was killed. Lilith was dead, the little girl that he promised to take care of. The girl that he cared for, this girl felt like his daughter. Dead, motionless, lifeless eyes.
Izzy appeared on a tree nearby. She had felt a huge amount magic coming from the area. She also sensed bits of Altair's magic inside the huge amount of magic. This was bad. If the Monkey King broke out, everyone was in trouble. The Monkey King, shook the heavens when he was born. He was also known as the Stone Monkey, as he was born from a huge stone.
This was bad, the seal was going to break. Altair's power was still rising. The seal couldn't hold this amount of power. It was also very dangerous for the body. Altair stopped his power just in time. And all at once, he used it to summon his power. His staff came, and something extra came too. Altari was wearing red armor, with gold markings, like his staff. It came along with a mask that looked like a monster with a red face and gold hair.
The seal broke
The figure stopped in his tracks. The Samurai was not backing down. Even though the ground around Altair was cracking. Altair had the eyes of a true demon, someone who had killed many people. The eyes of someone who was broken. The Samurai charged a Altair. Altair dodged the initial strike and landed a few feet away. He used his staff to smack the katana away. It flew out of the Samurai's hand and disappeared behind a bush. Altair then jumped back again and got into a defensive stance. The Samurai held his hand into a position that looked unnatural. He then dragged it back and started saying some can incantation.
Kaaaaa...Meeeee...Haaa..Meeee...HAAAAAA
The Samurai trusted his arms forward and a blue beam shot out of it. Altair brought up his staff to block. The beam and the staff clashed. The surrounding trees were blown away from the power. Altair's staff started to crack. He knew it wasn't going to hold. Altair focused, he stayed still, blocking out everything but his breathing. Then, he let out a breath. And with that breath, the staff grew a hundredfold. It knocked off the beam like it was dust. Altair breathed in, the staff shrunk. An evil glint could be seen in Altair's eyes.
Altair took the staff and aimed it over his shoulder like a bazooka. He breathed out, the staff rapidly grew. It grew straight to the Samurais left arm, taking it completely off, only leaving a stub. The Samurai's first time speaking was a scream of pain. Altair only grinned wider behind his mask. The Samurai held his stub for an arm. He turned and ran the other direction. Altair reached up to his hair and pulled out a few. He then threw it on the ground, spawning multiple clones of himself.
"Hold him down," Altair commanded in a cold voice.
The clones ran after the Samurai and help him down in place. Altair prepared another "Staff Bazooka". He breathed out, this time the staff took out his right arm. Blood began spurting everywhere. Altair walked slowing up to the Samurai. With each step, his grin became wider. When Altair finally reached the Samurai, he looked like a madman. Altair breathed in, the staff became tiny. Altair forced open the mouth of the Samurai and made him eat the staff. He took a few steps back and looked into the eyes of the killer.
This is for Lilith. Altair breathed out, the staff grew rapidly. In a few second, the Samurai's body exploded. Organs and blood started to rain down from the sky, with a huge staff standing straight. Altair and his clone army, looked finally at peace.
Izzy saw the whole fight. Wildlife had ran away since the first blow. The forest had been destroyed. Only an empty wasteland remained. Izzy teleported back to her domain. She needed to start commencing her plan.
After calming down from the intense moment, Altair started walking towards the castle. He reached the front gate, when he saw a flyer.
The flyer stated, "Come and fight at the Deadlock Castle Coliseum to win the elusive Revival Spell. Sponsored by the Blue Shark Kingdom. Tag team battle style."
This was it. His chance to revive Lilith. But, he needed a partner. Where would he find one?
Nearby, a group of traveler walked out of the wasteland. There were three people in total. From what Altair could tell, there were two men and a girl. The girl looked around his age, but what worried him was that she was being dragged around in ropes. She was all tied up in ropes. She looked like she was in pain, as shown from her facial expression.
Altair walked up to the trio. The girl reminded Altair of Lilith. The memories pained his heart. Pushing the memories aside, Altair stopped in front of the men.
"Whaddya want, punk," the man on the right said.
Altair brought his hair to stroke it, but secretly pulled out two pieces of hair. He then proceeded to blow them over the men, land a few feet behind them.
"Answer him now punk," yelled the man on the left.
Just as the man finished saying that, a hand appeared from his chest. Blood and holding what looked like his heart. The other man was in the same predicament. The clones crushed the hearts and pulled their arms out. The two men fell over, dead. Altair untied the girl and removed the bag from her head.
"Thanks, I've been like that for several days," said the girl.
"Not problem, I'm Altair. What's your name?" asked Altair.
"I'm Mia, Mia Tora. Nice to meet you, Altair," greeted the girl.
"Why were you tied up like that," asked Altair.
"It's a long story, and it's kinda private. Sorry," denied Mia.
"It's fine. Are you good at fighting? Wanna enter the tournament with me?" asked Altair.
Mia immediately agreed, "Yeah, sounds like fun. Sure, let's go."
And off they went, to sign up. This would mark the day when the whole world heard of Sun WuKong, The Handsome Monkey King.
