A/N: I am so sorry for the delay, but with the end of school as student and the end of school as a teacher things have been crazy. I'm on vacation the next few days, so I'm hoping to post as much as I can. Thanks to everyone who has reviewed. Again I'm sorry for not updating. Thanks to all those who are still tuned in.


Chase leaned heavily against the door. He was tired. Both physically and emotionally tired. As much as he didn't want to abandon his army and friends he knew that he didn't have a choice. Kenneth was right. If they wanted to win this war, Alexander needed to die.

Getting into the castle was easy. As the armies called a truce for the day, Chase followed Alexander's army back into the castle. Once there he broke off from the group and made his way to the throne room. It wasn't an easy trip to the throne room. He had to kill a few of the guards that had stopped him.

He took this brief moment of rest to worry about his friends back at camp. Where they okay? How badly where his men hurt? Where House and Foreman okay? Was Allison? His answer came when he felt Allison reach out to him.

"Get out of here." He immediately said. If he answered her maybe she would leave him alone. He couldn't afford to be distracted.

"Where are you?" She asked next. Chase refused to answer. He didn't want to worry her. "You're in the castle. How? Why?"

How could he explain it to her? How could he make her understand that this is what he had to do in order to save everyone? "You have to cut the tumor out to really destroy the cancer." He answered.

"You're in no shape. You're exhausted. Wait, I'll come and I'll bring help."

He hoped she wouldn't be able to tell that he was tired. As much as he wanted her by his side, along with House and Foreman, he knew that he had to do this now. "I'm sorry Allison. I can't. I have to do this. If not now we will loose."

"You planned this didn't you?"

He could tell that she was not happy. But there was nothing that he could do about it now. "Yes, this was planned. Kenneth knew of this. I love you Allison." He'd do what he had to do and deal with the reprocutions later.

Chase took a deep breath in order to block her from his mind and from distracting him. He really just wanted to sleep. A few sparks was all he really needed. Shaking his head, he knew that he'd just have to do the best he could. Swallowing a sigh, he stood up ready to open the door to the throne room.

It was then that it hit him.

Instantly, Chase knew what had happened and who did it. She had no right. She needed her energy. There were many back at camp that needed her to help them. What was she doing giving so much to him.

It took a moment for Chase to get himself under control. He realized a second later why she did it. Allison wanted to help him. Giving him her energy helped heal some of his wounds and gave him another burst of energy. He would take what he could get. He knew he needed all the help he could get. He said a silent thank you to her and a prayer that everyone was okay.

Robert Chase then opened the door to the throne room.
