Well hey fanfiction lovers! Chapter Twenty one is up. Nathaniel realizes something very shocking and Ness understands Lucas's nightmares a little bit better. Enjoy. Chapter Twenty Two: Spilled Blood will be uploaded soon.

Pit wanted to scream but, the hand pressed against his mouth made the sound crawl back in his throat. Pit felt his conscious begin to die away as the chloroform began to overwhelm his senses. Pit tried to sense who was dragging him but, he could only see fur, white and rough. Pit widened his eyes in realization. His attacker was Wolf, the slimy bastard. Wolf leaned into Pit's ear and whispered a crude warning.

"Tell the PSI user that I will kill him in promptly two weeks. He will die by the elements, fire, water, electricity, and ice. He will lose his soul on that day and he will have no reason but, die." Wolf whispered. Then he let go and retreated into the darkness and Pit breathed heavy.

Pit began to pant, panicky thoughts running through his mind. "My god, what did I just hear? Wolf wants to kill Lucas. That would explain why he got shot, why Lucas got shot. The poisoning; it all makes sense. But, wait; didn't Wolf run away like three days ago? How did he get in the castle? Lucas is in danger!" Pit leaned against a wall and pressed his hands against his shocked face. Then that was when Pit lost his sanity.

The latest swig of Coke when down my throat with a sweet taste of sugar when Lucas lumbered over to me, well by doing a side aerial. I really didn't understand why Lucas got so many parties but, he is somewhat famous by smasher means. Ever since that power of Claus obliterated Captain Falcon on the Battlefield, more people took notice of the wiry, timid eleven year old Lucas Halcyon. I looked up what halcyon was and it meant tranquility which made me laugh. Lucas's life was no way peaceful.

"Lucas, I can't believe what you did out there!" I exclaimed, throwing my arm around him.

Lucas frowned. "Well before that, you pissed me off. Don't you remember?"

I nearly sprayed soda out of my nose. "About that… well it was before I realized how talented you were."

Lucas scowled a little. "I'm surprised at how no one was paying attention to the power shooting from my hands. Even more surprised at Captain Falcon. He didn't ask any questions because I know that he knows about the power."

I shrugged. "Captain Falcon is a little dumb in the head sometimes. He is wired for battle but, out of the arena he doesn't care for many mysteries like that unless it deals with murder or something bounty hunter wise."

Lucas took a swig of water. "What did Dr. Trivial want with you?"

I set my cup down. "I don't know. He wanted to talk to me. Thing is I don't know him." I lied, well sort of.

Lucas rubbed his chin. "About those dreams I told you about Ness… well I don't think me and you should have those thoughts about each other anymore."

I nearly dropped my glass on the floor. "Why not?"

Lucas simply shrugged. "Well because for one, I am having nightmares of you killing me, of you dying, of me dying. Stuff like that. That's why I'm in therapy with Dr. Trivial."

I felt a small rise of panic in my heart. "Lucas, when did you have these nightmares exactly?"

Lucas had to think about it. "The day I was in the hospital till now. So about four days or so. Why do you ask?"

I might have sounded crazy if the event hadn't occurred. "I think that poison in your drink first made your heart stop, "killing" you. Then as you awoke, you were plagued with nightmares that dealt with one of us losing each other or both of us dying. Now on how to get it out of you is a different story and I don't know the answer. Maybe some powerful magic or something."

This made Lucas rub his chin. "I think you are right."

Marth came up to us, a frown on his face. "Have any of you seen Pit? He said he was coming by then he hasn't showed up."

I tilted my head a little. "Did he go up to the dorm?"

Marth shook his head in assent. "No. I checked and he wasn't there. I have bad feeling he had what happened to me."

Lucas held a hand up. "Are you saying that you think Wolf attacked Pit? Pit is an angel for crying out loud. Wolf would be stupid if he were to do so."

I put Lucas's hand down. "We still need to find him Lucas. It's not good for a smasher to just vanish off the compound."

Marth turned around. "Well then come on lads, let's go find an angel."

When we were walking up I saw Nathaniel. His glasses were red, his teeth slightly blackened at the tips. I needed to ask him later on what was happening to him. Lucas's eyes lightened when he saw the therapist.

"Doctor Trivial!" Lucas called.

Nathaniel strode over. "Hello Lucas and hello Ness. Lucas has told me a lot about you," He winked. "Now what are you guys doing?"

"Trying to find Pit," I said. Nathaniel raised an eyebrow, not knowing who I was talking about. "The angel."

Nathaniel nodded. "Ah. I understand. May I help you?"

Marth shrugged. "More the merrier. Sure."

Well we didn't have to search far. We found Pit all right, and I was genuinely horrified by what I saw. Pit was against a corner, rocking back and forth. Raw fear was in his eyes, and dark circles were like ornaments. Pit's hair was a mess and scratched against the wall were the words Fire, Water, Electricity, and Ice. That made my skin crawl. I crouched near the angel.

"Pit, what's wrong?" I asked gently. We all kneeled.

Pit turned his head so fast we all jumped. "Lucas, you need to be careful. Someone is out to kill you, and he plans on burning you, drowning you, electrocuting you, and freezing you till you die!"

Nathaniel crossed his eyebrows. "Did this person tell you their name?"

Pit shook his head, rocking his body back and forth. "I knew who it was immediately when I was attacked. His name was Wolf. Wolf Prartovach."

Nathaniel paled. "Excuse me everyone but, I need to take care of something." Then he abruptly stood and raced off towards his office.

I drew my attention back towards Pit. "Did Wolf tell you anything else?"

Pit shook his head. "No. I just had to tell him. But, something is wrong with me Ness. I feel hollow."

Marth stood. "I'll get him to Dr. Mario. You and Lucas go back to the party or something. Actually, go to Master Hand. Wolf might still be here."

He ran off and I looked at Lucas. "What did I tell you?! I told you he had something worse for you than a shooting or a poisoning. He plans on torturing you to draw out Claus's power."

Lucas shook his head. "We will deal with how I will stay alive later. Right now we need to find Master Hand. We need to find him before someone else dies, before someone else gets hurt. Before anymore chaos can be dealt."

I nodded. "Right. I feel bad for Pit. And now Dr. Trivial is starting to scare me as well."

Lucas began running. "Come on Ness, we have got to get to Master Hand!"

I breathed in annoyance. "Oh god! Why must this always happen?" And then I ran off after Lucas, not knowing that soon, very soon; blood would be spilled.

Hmmmmm, what did Nathaniel realize? And who is going to die? As I mentioned earlier, there is character death in the next chapter. Sorry for any fans of certain characters but, I need something to make it work. Now on chapter twenty, Cry. That song is my own, on an album that came up with eleven songs on it. I have lyrics and all of that stuff, but; I need to record it. Thanks for everyone who reviewed and review this as well. Love you all!
