"Did I misinterpret your affection towards him? Or perhaps his to you...."
[b]He turned around, writing something down in the large book [/b]
English
-
"Instead of trying to study me, perhaps we can meet an agreement that can benefit us both?"
-
"Yes yes, what is it?" [b]Aldrich was focused on the book. A prime time for a suprise attack... [/b]
-
"What if, I could bring you a lord of cinder for your meal. Someone particularly powerful"
-
[b]Aldrich turned slightly, eyeing Ash [/b] "Pardon?" [spoiler]That moment when Aldrich is Kross servant. And Ash is trying to turn him [/spoiler]
-
"Surely you would prefer to be the strongest of the lords correct? Perhaps surpass your own master?"
-
[b]A hand wrapped around he waist and she was pulled against the wall, her head slamming into it [/b] "I accepted my fate. Perhaps you should as well."

[spoiler]sooo magic still not a thing?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Considering he gave you a dream, and pulled this. I was hoping you'd figure it out TAKE THE BASTARD DOWN [/spoiler]

[spoiler]theeeen he done goofed[/spoiler] "My fate was to see to it that those who needed comfort in death had gotten it. Unfortunately for you, my master had made sure that I would live to continue that fate for always and eternity." Suddenly hellish flames sprouted from her hands instantly spreading as phantom whips began lashing to the beat of the damned. It was like experiencing all of hell's punishment simultaneously in a gruesome blend of it all. "The undead believe death's embrace is always sweet, but to a sinner, an eternity of servitude could be more pleasant"
-
"No! No no no!" [b]Purple flames exploded outwards from Pontiff, combating those of Ash [/b]
-
"You were offered freedom despite what you attempted to do to me and you still insisted on being nothing more than a pet to someone who would leave you to this fate." The tables seemed to have turned as now Ash's grip was tightened around Aldrich as the flames intensified even starting to cover the floor. She pulled out her Scythe with her off hand and began repeatedly digging it's blade into anything she could strike.
-
[b]Pontiff fell to his knees, falling away into Ash. Literally, Ash. It turned white, floating away as the flames of Pontiff disappeared. [/b] [b][i][u]Chapter Seven: The Lost Knight [/u][/i][/b] [b]As Ash subsided her own flames, the Knight that had previously guarded the door into the tower approached Ash [/b] [u]"Interesting. Keeping him talking while you harnessed your ability." [/u]
-
"He couldn't be helped but perhaps some good will come out of this in the end"
-
[u]"Perhaps. But now, your journey is over" [/u] [b]The gates reappeared, completely open [/b] [u]"It's over. Kross isn't here. You should go while you can." [/u]
-
"Very well" Ash walked back out to the curious crowd "[u]well, what was that all about?[/u]" "It was just a... a matter that needed attention"
-
[b]Hamilton laughed slightly [/b] "Than it is solved?"
-
"That appears to be the case" "[u]but what did you even do?[/u]" "I'd... rather not talk about it" Ash was still a bit confused as to if she would have chosen to stay in that dream, but it didn't matter now. Besides, could she live with herself knowing she stayed and left the real one to die?
-
"Than. Let us return home." [b]And so, the group returned to the beach where Iskandar was waiting. And quickly went back to the Dojo [/b] [spoiler]SO. What'd you think? [/spoiler]
