Chapter 4- A Hero's Rebirth
"Alexavis what the hell did you do to your pendant?" I exclaimed. I felt like a trapped prisoner just as she did.
"All I did was enchant it with holy energy years ago like a fingerprint to signified this belonged to me. Perhaps… it resonated with me and brought me out somehow." She stared at the crescent moon and blue gem it held in it's tips.
"Alexavis? But I saw you die!" She turned and saw Crystalic.
"RUUUUN!" I yelled at her but she shook her head.
"There's no point in lying to her when she's seen me." Alexavis said silently to me.
"Hmmph this is what you get for having friends."
"I was dead, I even wished I was dead after what Arthas did to me." As she spoke to Crystalic I was pulled into her memory of her rebirth in the hands of the Lich King.
Alexavis awoke gasping for air. She looked around the room she was chained in seeing the ice and death all around her she feared where she was.
"Noooo!" She cried. Then she stopped. Her voice was different… it was the voice of…. A Death Knight. She was no longer of the light anymore but of evil and darkness. Tears streamed from her face just thinking of it.
"You gonna cry more little priestess.. Oh wait wrong title for you now." She looked up and saw a human woman. Her glowing blue eyes watched Alexavis and she threw her long silver hair behind her back.
"Arthas isn't very happy about you. You resist him even though your fully succumbed to his powers."
Alexavis struggled on her chains. "So what do I care if he's happy or not? It's not as though emotions matter to him after what he has done!"
The woman laughed. "You know I'm trying to save you."
"Why would you care about me?"
The woman walked over to Alexavis and stroked her hand through her now magenta hair. "Because not everyone working for Arthas is evil. You wanna know why I chose this path? I was trying to see if the good husband I knew was still inside the Lich King. I have doubts now and he needs to be stopped no matter what now."
"That has to do with me why…. Alex Menethil?"
"Because Alexavis you have a great light inside of you, one that rivals the darkness of the Lich King."
Alexavis heard footsteps and saw Arthas come into the room.
"My dear Alex are you ready?" Arthas asked his wife.
"Of course dear but I have one request. Take all my memories from me. I wish to be able to fit in with the rest of the death knights in order to better serve you my lord."
"As you wish but do not fail me." He raised Frostmourne the cursed sword and plunged it into Alex's chest, sucking her soul out. He then turned to Alexavis and smiled before plunging Frostmourne into her.
The last thing Alexavis heard before succumbing to a deep sleep was the voice of Alex Menethil… "This is for the good of the world."
"Alex?" I grunted. "ALEX!" I jerked up and saw I was still at the fountain clutching Alexavis's pendent.
Crystalic exhaled. "Thank goodness you and Alexavis scared me today. How long did you think you could keep that secret?"
"I was hoping for a long time after finding out about her today." I put the pendent in my pocket. " I know who I was now. I was Arthas's wife in life and undeath… Alex Menethil."
"Listen I wish we could talk more and I will hide this from the others if that's what you wish but we have been called to fight along side the Horde at the Wrathgate. We are finally bringing the fight to Arthas himself."
I smiled. It was finally time for revenge. "Look out Arthas. Here we come."
