Return to the Underworld
Lina teleported to the Macabre Tombstone in order to go after Kronos. She clutched Dragon's Breath close to her body, just in case of another attack. The young sorceress couldn't wait to give that fiend a piece of her mind - - or just a Dragon Slave.
Suddenly, Rutee appeared before her. "My name is Rutee, Dragoon of Atwight," she stated, "I have been ordered by my master to hunt down Leon."
"I already know that Rutee," Lina reminded her.
Rutee replied, "I know. But I just can't help not using my introduction before a new battle, it sounds official."
Lina sweatdropped. This girl had more energy than she could ever muster. But Lina had also seen her be just as temperamental as she herself.
"What kind of magic can you use?" Lina inquired.
"The magic I use is of the water, ice, and healing variety," she said, "When you become a Dragoon, you choose a spirit and then you get access to their powers to create spells in your soul. You also have the abilities from your master. I chose Undine as my spirit, and the healing magic is Atwight's specialty. It's saved my life numerous times. Also, I have unique techniques that utilize my Astral Knives' power for either strikes or throws."
It was then time to go fight Kronos. They touched the tombstone, and were instantly teleported to the Underworld. Instantly, Rutee began to sniff around.
"I sense something," she exclaimed.
Suddenly, they heard Kronos's voice echoing throughout the cave. "How noble of you Lina, coming to stop my plans. And the Dragoon of Atwight is here too."
Rutee screamed, "Where is my brother?"
"So you wish to rescue your brother, how fraternal," Kronos boomed, "I have a special gift for you, young Dragoon. I hope you like it."
Suddenly, she was surrounded by Dark Stalkers - - a type of living armor wearing red capes. But the very next second, Rutee had used her Maelstrom spell and destroyed them all. The young Dragoon was quite angry.
"Let's go get him. He's gonna pay for what he's done," she yelled.
'I was right,' Lina thought, 'She does remind me of me."

At Olbohn's chambers, they asked the Wisdom if he could help them in any way. Rutee was worried that they couldn't tackle such a strong foe. She needed to win in order to save Leon. He was the only family she had left.
"I can send you directly to the bottom of the Underworld," Olbohn told them, "The Shadole will guide you there."
With that, a Shadole appeared before them. He said, "You wish to fight Kronos? If Olbohn wants me to, I'll be happy to guide you. Let's go to the depths of the Underworld."
* * *
At the bottom, Lina and Rutee saw Leon standing by Kronos. The Dragoon ran up to the emperor. "You'll have to get through us to see the surface!" she exclaimed.
Leon put his hand in front of his sister. "Rutee, stay out of this. I will be the one to fight Kronos. When we made our pact, we added this little piece in it. I would gather the Mana and send the life power to Kronos. He would then use it to revive us. But when our return is imminent, the two of us will fight. Then only the victor will rise to the surface."
"Leon, you are my Dragoon and my dearest partner," Kronos said, "I will fight you as I promised. But first, a little reward."
Suddenly, Kronos began to cast a spell. Leon suddenly felt weird. He began to roar, and roll on the ground in pain.
"What did you do to him?" demanded Rutee.
Kronos answered, "Just giving him a little reward. Your brother always wanted to be a strong warrior, like his sister. So I merely granted his wish. Now Leon, defeat your sister and the sorceress and demonstrate your new powers."
Kronos teleported out of the line of fire. Just then, Leon got up again and began to howl. Then, his body started to grow larger, and turn into that of a Centaur.
"That's no reward," Rutee screamed, "That's a curse."
Lina mused, 'Dang, and Zelgadis thought that he had it bad, at least he's part human.'
Leon wasn't going to stop fighting for even his sister. He began to charge up one of the dark attacks he gained from his master. Lina dodged, and began to use the Dragon Slave on him. As she chanted, Rutee began to fight with her Bloody Rose stabbing technique. Soon, the chant was finished, and Lina let her spell hit the demon, returning Leon to his own body.
"I'm sorry Rutee. I knew what I was doing was wrong. But I just wanted to return to the land of the living, to return. . .to you," he gasped out. Then, he faded away.
Suddenly, the Underworld began to shake. Rutee, Moon GS, and Lina then went flying through the air. They ended up right in front of the tombstone. There, they watched as the ground began to sink, and a huge castle appeared in its place.

Maelstrom was one of the spells you could use by equipping the Swordian Atwight. And Bloody Rose is one of Rutee's special techniques. Well, we'll head to the last fight with Kronos after this, but there'll still be more. There is going to be plenty of other adventures for Lina and Gourry to get into.
