Chapter 18: Betrayal

*~*~*~* Ispep's POV:

When my son reappeared with the girl that had previously eluded my grasp, I was overjoyed, "Good job, Ekoc. Now, Sage. Why do you not wish to see me anymore? I remember that when you were younger, you loved it when I came to visit. What's happened?"

"I found out that you are trying to turn me against everything I know is good and that you kidnapped my parents and brother!" Sage spat at me before nailing Ekoc in the groin, which got him to instantly release her.

'Resourceful. I like that.' I thought allowing a smirk to cross my face. "Oh, dear! I'm so sorry you have been exposed to so many lies!" I did my best to look upset and sympathetic.

"Yeah, right! You expect me to believe that look?!" I guess she didn't believe I was authentic.

'Perceptive. Another good trait…but only to a certain extent. She's a bit too perceptive…we'll have to fix that…' I frowned. She wasn't going to be as easy to change as I first thought, "Ekoc. Get the crystal orb!" He left.

*~*~*~* Diov's POV:

During our period of waiting, I had explained how the room we were trapped in worked. After that was cleared up, we talked for a while before we ran out of things to say to each other. The three couples in the room were all together and it looked as if all three women were sleeping. Syaoran looked to be trying to come up with ways out, by the look on his face; King Fujitaka appeared to be sleeping; and Eriol looked happy, sitting there with Tomoyo wrapped up in his arms. Kero was cuddled up with Sakura and Syaoran and Spinel with Tomoyo and Eriol. Touya had gone over to a wall and sat down and was now dozing lightly. I too was sitting down, but just awaiting the doom that was soon to befall us all.

*~*~*~* Ekoc's POV:

After Ispep used the crystal orb on Sage, she was an entirely different person. It took all night for him to complete the process because she was stubborn as all hell, but it was done.

"This is going to be SO much fun!!!" Loire and Arukas had come up behind me.

"I can't wait to hear their cries for mercy!" Arukas replied, highly anticipating the upcoming massacre, "Hehehe…it's going to be so satisfying! Especially, knowing that Diov knows that his girlfriend is going to kill him!"

I agreed that they could follow me when I took Sage down to the dungeon where everyone was. The fairies had to be right, the upcoming scene had to be a wonderful sight to see.

When we got down there, we found three couples together and two others off on their own. As soon as the light from our entrance died down, everyone was up and ready to fight us with all their power.

"Sage!" One of the young girls cried out when she saw who it was, "What happened to you? Are you all right?"

"I'm perfectly fine. And what happened is that my eyes were opened to the truth of things." Sage raised a hand, palm out towards the girl who had spoken and stones from the wall behind her started to fall upon her.

"SAGE!!! What are you doing?!?" I recognized Diov's voice behind us.

She half turned and put up a hand in his direction, "Doing what I should have done a long time ago." The ceiling started to fall upon him.

"Ah. Poor Diov. Being killed by the one he loves!" I crooned, then started laughing.

*~*~*~* Sakura's POV:

'What in the world?!' Everyone was dodging flying rocks, "Sage! You've got to stop this now! Before someone gets hurt!" I tired to call out to her, but she didn't listen. 'I hope she isn't possessed again!'

Mother and father were using their magic to keep a shield up around themselves, but they didn't look like they could hold out for too much longer. Eriol was using his magic to hold a shield around him and Tomoyo. Touya and Diov were doing quite well dodging the stones. Kero and Spinel were staying in their small forms, making themselves smaller targets and doing their best to help Eriol and Tomoyo.

"That's it!" I called upon my staff and then called the Shield, "Shield! Protect Syaoran for me!" The shield card placed itself over Syaoran.

Trying to see Sage's next move before she made it, I noticed that she was telling the man that came with her to do something. I couldn't tell what she was saying because of all the noise. In a blink of an eye, the man that had been behind Sage was no longer behind her. Suddenly, I felt someone behind me and it didn't feel like Syaoran.

Then I heard, "Time for you to come with me." He grabbed me around the waist and we teleported out of the dungeon. The next moment, Sage was standing in front of me with the fairies Loire and Arukas sitting on her shoulders.

"What is going on?!" I was confused as I could be.

"We are going to show you the wonderful world of truth." (The truth that she now believes ^-^) Sage now had a cocky attitude, "And the wonderful world of power!"
