Chapter Eight: Attacking the Capital

Fritz would be in the Emperors Chambers, which was located in the middle of Hunst. His army would be guarding the wall, so the plan was to go into the ceilings opening and attack from both sides of the wall.

While the war was occurring, I headed to the Emperors Chambers. I knew we were winning the battle because I turned around and saw the blue uniforms (Cantale/us) swarming all over the red uniforms (Heliea/the enemy). I reached the chambers, and Fritz was waiting there for me.

"You found the key, didn't you?" he asked.

"How'd you know? Was it the fact that your army is losing outside? Or the fact of me standing here waiting to serve justice on you for killing my father?"

"Freile....I knew since Freile that you were following in your cousins footsteps."

"You knew about my cousin?"

"Yes. Nothing goes on in the world without me knowing about it. Like the fact that Trinity is in the hangar by Yew right now."

"You leave her alone! She has no business in this, and if you really do know everything, you would know that."

"I knew the uprisings were going to occur, that's why I proposed to your mother. I knew everything."

"Well now you're fiancé is wanted for treason, guess that part of the plan failed, didn't it?" I replied.

"You wouldn't hurt your mother, you wouldn't even hurt Sapal when he was your enemy."

I cut him off, "you don't know what I'm capable of. However, I will justify what is needed to be justified, whether that is through force or sentencing, and now, it's your turn."

I drew my sword quickly and attacked. He drew his sword and swung it towards my head. I dodged it and hit his head with the handle of my weapon. He was on the ground, vulnerable. He kicked my foot and I flew on my back. He pointed his sword towards me, "this is it. This is the end of your reign."

A sword struck. Slicing skin. However, it wasn't mine. It went straight through Fritz's stomach. It was the end of a reign, an evil reign. A reign of destruction was finally over. Fritz was dead.
