I based this off the last episode of TB. Tell me what you think. I think I screwed this one up.

Three chapters to go!

Chapter 36

It was the battle among battles. The two twin brothers facing off head to head. Cain turned and found that Abel had transformed. He was at 100, a risky move on his behalf. Abel held his double scythe in both hands. He swung his weapon at his brother. Cain flew into the air, Abel close behind his feet. It is an epic battle between the two that has been going for nearly a millennium, a battle that neither knows the out come. Lighting sparked off Abel's body. Cain sent blast at him, while dodging bolts of lighting. Abel snarled and swung his scythe at his twin. He had nearly lost his mind when he saw Esther lying on the ground. He didn't know if she was still alive. He hoped though. The two brothers fought for dominance, the both of them yelling at the other. Abel's mind was now in over drive. He wanted to feel his incompetent brother's blood on his hands.

"Cain!!" He yelled at him. "You son of a bitch! "

"My, my such words. I thought priests could not swear." Cain laughed. Abel flew after him, swinging his scythe wildly. "This is so familiar to last time. Though events will not repeat themselves. He will die by my hand." Abel's mind raced as his followed his brother. How close the two of them used to be and how much he loved Cain at one time. Father Leon had worded it right once. It was a love-hate relation. Abel loved to hate Cain. The man had ruined the priest's life once before and he 'd be damned if he let it happen again. His mind raced with all the memories he had of Cain. "What kind of future do you want Abel? Do not worry, dear brother, I have removed the negativity from our lives. The Bitch deserved what she got. Congratulations Abel, I never knew you had it in you to infect a woman with your seed. You're pathetic, Abel. You'll lose her brother." Abel lighting started to spark faster off him. Abel swung harder, trying to hit the blond. "You're just a bother. If it wasn't for the fact I know how much this is killing on the inside, I would relieve you of your pathetic life. She belongs to me. You'll always be second best, Abel."

Flash Back

"I can't believe you two!" Lilith stood in front of the boys, her hands on her hips and a scowl upon her face. "Fighting with each other! For gods sake what were you two thinking?" Cain stood proud in front of the angered woman. Sure his lip had been split open and he would have a few bruises in the next few days, but Abel got it worse. Able looked down at the floor. Blood still dripping out of his nose. The young boy was sure it was broken. "You two are brother. You're supposed to love each other!"

"He started it." Cain pointed at Abel.

"Did not!" he yelled back. Abel tried to grab Cain by the neck and choked him. "I hate you!"

"Abel!" Lilith grabbed him by the shoulder. She squeezed it hard. "I said that was enough!" She looked over at blond. "Go to your room, Cain. I'll be in soon to check on you." Cain nodded, before walking off. Abel lowered his head. He knew what was to come next. Lilith was probably going to ground him for starting the fight. Instead he felt her wrap her arms around him. "Come on now. You can't keep letting him get to you like this."

"I know." The boy mumbled. Lilith ran her fingers through his hair.

"He does it on purpose. I swear the boy likes to make more trouble for you than himself, but you shouldn't use such words against him. He's your twin."

"I wish he wasn't. He likes to make things so hard for me. "

"I know." She kissed him on top of the head. "That's what siblings are for. Though I want you to apologize to him for saying that you hated him." Abel nodded. "Good, why don't you go clean up and after I get done talking with Cain, you and I can talk about what's troubling you? I'll bring cookies and tea?"

"Yuck, I hate tea." Abel gagged. Lilith smiled and ruffled his hair. "It's something of an acquire taste, you'll get used to over time."

"It's too bitter."

"I think so too. That's why I put a few spoonful of sugar in it."

"Still gross." Lilith laughed.

"Fine then I'll dump the whole sugar bowl in yours." Abel finally left a smile crawl over his face.

Flash Back Ends

"This ends now!" Abel thought. He was inches away from the blond. Abel swung his scythe at him once more and caught on the left thigh. Cain yelled out in pain. Abel dragged his brother closer. At the last moment Cain flung his lance at Abel stabbing him in the shoulder. The two of them started falling. They kicked and clawed at each other, like they did when they were younger. Abel finally got the upper hand and twisted until Cain was below him. Abel was holding Cain below him. The entire Vatican watched as Abel threw him into the ground. A billow of dust filled the air. Abel knew he had broken some of Cain's ribs from impact. He looked down at the broken man. Cain was having trouble breathing.

"Are you actually going to kill me brother?" Cain wheezed. Abel looked back over at Esther. She still had not moved. He felt the lighting spark all around him. Abel raised his scythe up high and glared at Cain.

"I do this for her." He spoke. Abel felt the ground below him start to rumble. He lowered his weapon and looked at the ground. The rumbling was getting worse. "Is it an Earthquake?" From the other side of the court he noticed the ground beginning to give way. Abel's eyes widen as the entire ground opened into a black abyss. He looked back at Cain and then to Esther. His love had still not moved. Abel dropped his weapon and started running for the redhead. Suddenly, the ground beneath him gave way. Abel fell a good twenty feet before he got a chance to fly back out. He flew up high and darted for his love; the earth below her started crumbling. He forced himself to speed up.

"I don't think so!" He heard Cain call out. His eyes quickly turned on his brother, in time to see Cain send another blast. Abel dodged and sent a bolt of lightning straight at his chest. Cain flew backwards and landed hard. Abel turned back to Esther, just in time to see his love fall into the chasm. "Esther!!" He screamed. Abel flew into the abyss and followed her. He clinched his teeth and forced his body to go faster. The light was starting to fade, and Abel lost sight of his pretty queen. Panic started to set in as his plunged into darkness. "Esther!" He cried out again. He heard a faint splash from up ahead. Before he knew what was going on, Abel went head first into an underground spring. He swam to the surface and looked around. It was dark. "Esther." He spoke out. "Esther!!" He quickly dove beneath the water and felt around, hoping to feel the touch of her skin. Abel felt his heart pounding loudly in his chest. His lungs burned for air. He tried to force himself to keep searching, but his body eventually won and returned to the surface of the water. "Esther!" He yelled. He looked around. "Dear God please. I need her." Abel felt hot tears rolling down his cheeks. "ESTHER!!"

Advert not thine eyes

"And how is my dear Abel taking it?"
