Ch. 24: Risus

(Y/n) pulled from his strong grip and grabbed his hair immediately diving him down closer to the main doors of the castle.

Two guards could see them coming and coming fast. They both immediately began opening the large doors, hoping to do so before they reached it.

"Unhand me!"

"You're nuts!"

They dove down and through the front doors. A gust of wind moved by the guards blowing in dust. They looked at one another then agreed to find Die and other men to help. For all they knew the human was harming Dark. Why else would he be so out of control?

Traveling into the castle was a bad idea because it only left more twists and turns, but its also somewhere that had more people to stop him than just her.

Each time she turned a corner she would call out for either Die or Anti. There was no knowing if Anti was back or not either.

"Die!"

"Let go of my hair you fool!" Dark called out once more.

"What the hell has gotten into you, Dark?"

They suddenly passed Die who was casually walking down the hallway. He paused for a moment not really sure of what he had just seen.

"(Y/n)?" He questioned.

"They went this way!" A guard called out.

Many footsteps fell after he had spoken. Guards turned the corner and spotted Die.

"Master Die!" One spoke up. "Did you see them?"

"Was that Dark and (Y/n)?"

"The human — she's fighting him — as we speak — we must stop her!"

She forced Dark to turn down another hall. Above her there were fabric tapestry's hanging from the ceiling, cascading from corner to corner. (Y/n) pulled his hair upward and let go, grabbing onto the red velvet material. Dark continued down the hallway unaware of just gaining control of himself again.

At the last minute be became aware of his freedom only for him to fly straight into a wall. The wall itself cracked and down he fell to the ground, his wings draping over him.

"Dark!" (Y/n) called out, then released the fabric.

She fell to the ground, stumbling over a bit before regaining the traction under her feet. Guards turned the corner which Dark was at the end, while others came up behind her. She backed up upon seeing them, then turned and realized she was surrounded.

They were angry. Their king, as far as they knew, had just gotten into a fight with the leader of the rebellion and looked as though he was losing. It wasn't a good mix.

"No! I didn't do anything wrong, I swear!"

"Silence, human!" A guard called out.

They spears pointed towards her, growing closer and closer.

"We were just having fun, and it got a little out of hand. Where's Die, he'll tell you its okay!"

Dark sat up on his elbow, with a servant coming to his aid.

"Master Dark!" She called out. "Are you alright sir?"

"Where is she.." He spoke softly.

"Who, sir?"

"The human.." He looked up at him, breathing heavily.

"She's — she's over there — the guards — Dark, sir, what did she do to you? Are you alright?"
