I ran to find karai. When I heard a sound coming from behind me. It was dusk. She was limping after me. "Dusk!" I caught her before she fell. A trail of her own blood spread out behind her. "What are you doing?!" I yelled. "I-- I have to come with you-- so karai can heal me." I lifted her up on my back. "Fine. But your not walking. Not like this." I carried her on my back. And I searched for wherever karai might possibly be.

I walked and walked for miles. Until finally. I collapsed. On to the cold wet ground. "Dusk. I'm sorry." She was unconscious. But I couldn't move. I couldn't help her. I was so tired. I fell asleep there. But when I woke up. I woke up to screams. Fire. And a dragon. Aki. I jumped up. Dusk was gone. But I did a double take. Aki had dusk in her mouth. Crushing the life outah her. "Let her go you over grown lizard!" She threw dusk and growled at me. I took out my katana. Man it was too early for this. I jumped up go fight her. But she slapped me away with her tail. I growled as well. With anger. She screamed. But then I remembered. She said. She wanted revenge on me for her brother. Who was that? No time. I had to fight her.

I got back up and dodged her swinging claws and her snarling teeth. I jumped from her leg to her head. And I whipped out my chain. I put it through her mouth to control her. I was riding a dragon! "Calm down! Now tell me who is your brother! Why do you want revenge on me?!" I didn't ride for long because she turned back into a turtle. I pulled my chain back to me. I put it back in my pocket. Now she could speak. I swung my katana at her. She dodged it. "Tell me! What have I done to you?!" As we were fighting. She explained. She tried to slash me with her scythe. "You imbasil!" My katana and her scythe clashed. Our forces of strength collided against one another. With desperation she said. "You-- you destroyed his family! You killed his father! And you killed his girlfriend!" I stopped fighting. She pushed me down. She sat on top of me with her scythe against my neck. "How do you not know this?! What is wrong with you?! Don't try to be a fool! You know what you've done!" I whispered. "Lee-- Leo?" She yelled. "Say it louder!" As she put pressure on my neck with her scythe. "Is Leo your brother?! Is the one that wanted you to do this?!" She gasped. "Yes! He is! He told me he was my long lost brother! He escaped from you on earth! He told me all about you! How you murdered your own father. Leaving Leo and his brothers to suffer. And how you stole his girlfriend from him and killed her!" He thought. April. She's. Dead? Anger started to build up. That was his first love. Spirit yelled. "He's lying to you!"

She put even more pressure on my neck. She threatened to cut my neck wide open. She started to from where karai cut my neck. My neck started to bleed as she cut me slowly. Painfully. She wanted me to suffer. I struggled for air as I bled. "Aki. Stop!" I yelled. She did. "Why should I?!" I looked into her eyes. "Leo is lying. He's my brother." She just held the end of her scythe to my neck. Suffocating me. I was gasping for air. She started to cry. "I've had nothing! All my life people have put me down! And my only family is Leo and dusk. And your telling me Leo isn't my real brother. She pushed down harder on my neck. I could feel myself loosing oxygen. I was almost gone. But before I faded into the black I got sight of a black panther. Slashing aki in the back. It was my panther.
