"If you don't mind, I have things to attend to, unless you need me to do something?" I wait at the door. "Which I have some odd feeling you do, am I right?" She did, I already knew what it was too, probably, go find Axel's Son, or some such, like Drako is doing with his sister. Why was I in such a grouchy mood? Hmm.... "Or do you want me to check up on our allies?"

Scarlet beckoned Vincent over to her and walked out of her room and into the hallway for a more privent conversation.
"Vincent.........as much as I would like you to hunt him down..........I need you here for a little while.Right now I need you to be my war advisor."
Scarlet looked down at the ground and scuffed her buckled boots in shame.
"I have no idea how to win a war nor do I even really have the guts to watch people get killed unless they truly deserve it.I'm putting you in charge of telling me what to do.Just don't tell anyone because I will be the laughing stock of everyone and stop laughing."
Scarlet looked up to see a twinkle in Vincent's eyes.She was really upset over it.

I look at her, my eyes holding something of a hollow feel. "Scarlet, I may be an ally, but we all have armies. Besides, I will tell you what I told Jamie, I must fight too. I need you, much like Drako, to be strong. You can do it, and I will give you pointers here and there, but for the most part, this is my first time as well. I have lead small crews, but nothing like a full sized army. So, in a way, Drako is the one I am looking at. And besides, I think you will make a fine leader. Don't worry about it!" I hold her shoulders. "Just be tough, okay?"

Scarlet began to zone out her surroundings and began to go into a trance.Her bright redish-orange eyes becoming dull.
Her voice began to echo like that of lady fate.
"THe war has begon let the sides duil forth but both dark and light will not win only hearts of pure can win this war.Wolfblade's slash will end it all and blooming roses part there ways.So shall this story end."
Vincent started shaking she but she wasn't coming though.

"Scarlet?" I snap my fingers in front of her. "Scarlet?" I again snap my fingers. "Hello, Scarlet?" I catch her as she falls. "Damn it Scarlet, wake up!" I look around. "Fate, let her go, I want nothing to do with you, I am not going to start, nor end this stupid war you have over our heads, you hear me. I am in charge of my own destiny! I have control of my own fate, not you!" I swing Sinbane into my hands, and brandish it with one hand in the air. "You hear me?!" I roar at the Earth, and for an instant, I feel fear emit from an unknown location. I mutter goodbye to Scarlet, say goodbye to Eliza, and with Zeaon, I launch from the hanger. I find this point of fear, and with it, I should find the one responsible for everything. Lady Fate herself. I would reason with her, she had no right to do such things. Man was in charge of fate, not some lady, but man and God. I would not argue with war, but with me ending it, I full well would.

Scarlet began to come to and found herself on the ground with Scotts by her side.
"What just happened and where is Vincent?"
Scotts just looked at Scarlet and motioned his head in the other direction with a grave face.
"It was fate wan't it!"Scarlet quietly answered.Scotts nodded and Scarlet swore under her breath.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lady fate just kept giggling and in her sing-song voice that echoed thoughout the chamber repleyd." not alone can chose your fate.I only answer the ifs,whens, and possible outcomes in the many future timelines.Alas,I can not rewrite them like you see fit.But sadly,yours will not look so bright on your path right now but your times are coming soon that will test your being.Will you chose the right path?"

I land and look at the marble Tower ahead of me. I go to the door, and with one mighty blow from Sinbane, the door splinters into two. I step in, and mythical creatures big and small stand near a corner. I pass them, and find Fate. She looks up at me. I pull Sinbane close to my back, where I was putting it away. She disappears, and I look up. I run up the stairs to find her. Sinbane away. I proceed to walk to her.

Finally I found my prey, my eyes glowed with a green furocity to match a wolf, a wolf at hunt, stalking its helpless prey. I summoned my dual swords and leaped through the air, as I was about to fall onto her there was a silvery-white blast of light, "Damn you fate!" The small explosion was enouhg to knock me off course, and straight out a window, the citadel was big, over fifty stories big, Kaie was at the top, and I was falling to my death. I tried to summon flight, but a block was in the way of me touching into my magics. "Damn you Lady Fate! DAMN YOUUUUUUuuuuuu!" I plummeted down all fifty stories, the jagged spiked stalagmites on the ground peering up at me hungrily, this was the end. No mortal death, but divine intervention, of the most devilish kind. The fall was long, I pondered, I would never go on that date with Scarlet....I would never be able to joke with Vincent again....I wouldn't be able to teach Vanessa to carry on in my footsteps....and I would never learn about Eliza, I never did tell her mine and Scarlet's story, I hoped Scarlet could explain to her, what happened when a Lord such as I died? I was in a strange calmness, the end was rising toward me, no epic struggle, no valiant deed, I died trying to assassinate my own sister. The ground grew closer. Perhaps I would just...dissapear. Closer. Or maybe I would be able to see Scarlet again from the afterlife. And closer. I was about to learn the question that man had feared since the beginning of time. What exactly happened when you died? Did your life flash before your eyes? Did you see a light? A tugging sensation? Ever closer. What exactly was Lady Fate planning? Was I meant to fail? To die? Less than a hundred feet. My life for you...Scarlet Knight.

IT was few hours into the planning stages for Scarlet when she heard a bell tolling and sighed.She hated the throne.Everytime that someone died she knew when.
A few angels appered befoe Scarlet and approched her.She looked up at then in question.What nes had they brought?
They replyed quietly to her,"The lord of chaos is............."
Scarlet collapsed on the ground.It was too much for her to believe.
There were tears in her eyes and murrmered," and the world has lost it's hero."

My eyes stared blankly at nothing, every part of me impaled by jagged spikes. Blood coated everything around and still dripped off of the spikes. But it wasn't me. My body was shredded, destroyed, but I wasn't there. This was the end. But where was I? I floated in nothingness, there was nothing around me, I was nothing. Suddenly, someone appeared. An old man in a flowing robe, a clock-work staff in his hand, when he spoke his voice was much stronger than his years showed. "Welcome Drako. I am Father Time. I have taken you out of the space-time contenuim For you are dead." My eyes widened, I looked down at my hands....and gasped. I......I..I was a child again. "What the hell did you do?!" It came out in a high-pitched voice that cracked, I couldn't be more than twelve! Father Time smiled at me, "That language is too grown-up for you my boy. Now, to everyone in any of the planes, you are dead. Lady Fate did what she had to. Sh-" I broke in angrily, "She killed me!" He shook his head, "She saved you. For your enemies are summoning something yo can't defeat. They are summoning you. From the future, the future inwhich you fail, you become their pawn, after Scarlet and Vincent die, you hold untold power of fury and destruction, not even you can defeat him." He waved his hand to his side and an image of the most devilish thing I had ever seen appeared, the mask...my mask...was completely black, I was in blood crimson spiked and jagged armor. I had a helflamming scythe, also blood red, that glowed with with all the souls it had reaped. My eyes though...they where the worst....they werent there. In their place where black pits, the mask had become my face, its eye slits where my eyes, there was nothing behind bt pure evil. Fire bloomed around everything, there was no crackel, but a sinister sizzle and hiss. My hair was blood red. And the bodies, there where thousands of corpses littered around me, carelessly slaughtered. I was looking at the most horrific creature ever to walk the many planes. I was looking at myself.

Eliza frowned, knowing exactly that what she should have done, but alas it didn't work that way. Oh well, she couldn't argue to that. Happy, Vincent asked, as the halfling simply nodded, murmuring something about the agreement, as she was in mid-turn before she heard''s Vincent's next comment. In which Eliza paused for just a moment, her hand unconciously reaching to her blonde strands, tucking the loose strands behind her ear.
That was hours earlier. Now, Vincent has yet to come back from his earlier rush goodbye from the room Scarlet has taken him to for more privacy. Yet Eliza wasn't completely clueless, hearing a hint of Lady Fate. So to be honest, there really wasn't alot for her to do. She didn't control another world with armies, and they didn't expect to have any kind of soilders underneath her reign, she didn't have a mortal enemy to fight to gain a upper hand in this war, they didn't. . really didnt know much about her except, they accepted her on their team and have faith that she would fight side-by side with them in battle.
Peeking around the corner seeing the heir still in the same spot for the last few minutes, " Scarle-" She started to call out however as soon as she felt the new energy, Eliza shut her mouth keeping quiet and trying to mask her own being, seeing the two angels appearing. Eliza hid herself behind the cracked door hearing the angel's words, herself biting her lower lip to keep from saying something. Her own thoughts flickering quickly through her mind, as amethyst eyes narrowed.
' Something feels. .. off,' Eliza didn't hear Scarlet's words neither did she want to pay attention to them. It felt intrusive to just stand here, maybe she should move away. However her mind was being anatyical about the Lord of Chaos dying. It felt like. . like, it was. . destined?
Mentally the halfling cursed. No that didn't sound quite like the word, it actually sounded a little apathetic.
She was sent to keep a eye on the three. God would have given her more warning if this was a possible untimely defeat of the Lord of Chaos. The Lady of Fate would also-
Eliza sighed suddenly, no longer wanting to continue this line of thought for the moment. For the short time she met the Lord of Chaos she happened to like him, even if.. things felt off. She also hadn't known Scarlet for long enough, but the Heir's fiancee was just killed, she just found out- and any thoughts aside from her fiancee's death were ringing through her head. Eliza felt her heart go out for her. With another sigh, the angel pushed off from the door, knocking on it slightly, " Scarlet?" It was only said when she spent more then a few minutes, blocking out the sounds from inside the room.
Hope really was the only thing she felt she could give her, comfort as well if the heir allowed it. If the woman wanted privacy right now, she'll accept her wishes, only after pushing some.
[[ If this post is okay. >> ] And sorry if its somewhat long. D; ]]

You are more than welcome to post long anytime!It just adds to the story line all the more blaugh I won't be on for a while tonight since I'm seeing a dance show at my school.I might be back on around 10 or 11.It just depends confused
Scarlet just sat there on the ground in a daze and slighly shaking.She didn't even know that Eliza had entered the room but she came to it fater a few minutes.Her eyes were slighly wet.
She spoke quietly to Eliza," You can stay if you like but I.........I...I need to bury his body.I have to take it back to his old manor.I knwo that is what he would have wanted."Scarlet was still stunned at the fact that Drako was really gone this time.She even heard the bells.All of the sudden Scarlet smacked herself.
"I can jsut go see where he landed up!"
but she was given a devastating look from Scotts,a walker and an angel who had appeared on cue.He was truly gone!At that point Scotts walked past the others and layed the limp form of Drako on the ground.IT was grizly sight.Scarlet then broke and sobbed while hugging the now lifless form of Drako.Sure she was suppose to be a powerful ruler but this was too much for her to bare.

[[ . .It isnt the one with the posters thats been up for awhile, is it? D; and kay ]]
Kneeling down so she was on the same level as Scarlet, Eliza hesistated for a moment, before touching her shoulder, " Scarlet, Lis-" Her voice was soft, before Scarlet came to her realization. However, such hopes were shot down at the new entrance of Scotts. Seeing the limp form of the Lord of Chaos, Eliza stood up on one side of Scarlet as Scotts made his way, soon presented the lifeless form. It was gruesome, and Eliza for a moment of time was angry at this man for bringing Drako's battered body infront of Scarlet like this.
Hearing the other woman break even more, the halfling gave Scotts something of a glare, before turning her gaze onto the others that lingered around. " If," Eliza started, her voice strong and filled with warning, " You have no business here, then I suggest that you leave. Now. " Her power flickering with the command.
' Lady Fate.'

I had been on the ground for some time now. I lift my head, Sinbane shattered, my own body broken. I slowly test my wings again. They were almost there. I let my head falls again. I had fought Lady Fate, after she almost killed me the first time. I had lost. I don't remember the rest of the battle, but I knew the outcome. I think about what may come of this. After she had said he was dead, I about cried. She had let him die, and she said it with no emotion! That was when I snapped. She had already made attempts on my life, after I argued that I was not fit to end a war. She said destiny was destiny, and we had to do as it said. I lift my wings, and now finally fully healed, I lift myself. Zeaon, well, he had been killed in the fight. He was again in Heave, and whether I would be powerful enough to resummon him, I really had no idea. I lift myself into the air, and soon, I make my creakety way back to the airship. I land, my body just barely inside, with a dull thud. I lift myself up, and with a heave, I make it into a standing position, but my legs fail, and I am lowered by gravity to the ground of the hanger, with a louder thud, and a very loud grunt.
