Still continuing their travails, Kain and Magnus some how found themselfs in a darkened and very thick forest. (Yes, wood is not that intelligent. It is slightly less intelligent than a migrating coconut. Which is only slightly less intelligent than a herring.) But still none the less they were within a forest, "riding" along until they came upon a two knights fighting before a bridge.

The two men one in black and the other in green. The black knight bore the symbol of the vampire Melchiah. The other was losing.

As Kain and Magnus watch the ensuing battle, Kain was greatly impressed by the Black Knight. As the battle raged on it seemed that the Green Knight could possible win. That is until Black Knight's long sword found a new home in the Green Knight's eye socket. As he retrieve his sword he also sucked up the blood of his victim. Kain was most impressed.

Kain turned to Magnus nodded then "rode" forward, stopping before Melchiah. All Black Knightdid was stand there, leaning on his sword.

"You are a vampire after my own heart," Kain told him. "Strong, intelligent, and you decimate all that oppose you."

There was no reply.

"I am Kain, King of all Nosgoth."

Still no reply.

Kain was once again quite annoyed. "I am seeking out the finest vampires and souls to become vampires in the land to join my vampire hoards."

And still the Black Knight remained silent.

Kain right eye brow twitched. "You have proven yourself worthy to me. Would you care to become one of my lieutenants?"

No answer, only a slight shrug.

"That is an unwise choice," Kain said darkly. If this vampire would not join him, he just might become a threat. Kain would have to watch this one closely. "You would do better to join me. You could live longer. But so be it." Kain turned to his flunky. "Magnus, we move on." As Kain and Magnus make a move to the bridge as the Black Knight bars their way.

"None shall pass."

Kain was shocked to hear the Black Knight speak. "What!"

"None shall pass."

"I have no quarrel with you, but I must cross this bridge."

"Then you shall die."

Why am I surrounded by fools, Kain thought. But as his therapist said, Kain would try not to resort to violence this time around. Kain took a deep breath, then spoke, "I command you, as King of Nosgoth, to stand aside!"

"I move for no man."

Screw therapy! Kain was ready to kill.

He drew the Soul Reaver and approached Melchiah, who was also preparing for battle. As the Black Knight swung wildly Kain easily dodged him. All Kain need do was wait for the right moment. And one did appeared. The Black Knight let his guard down in a tremendous downward swing. Kain took that moment to sever the Black Knight's left arm at the shoulder. He stepped back in shock, for the Soul Reaver did not consume all the blood within the Black Knight . Maybe it was because Kain was already full.

But Kain had none the less won. "Now stand aside, weakling," Kain told the Black Knight.

The Black Knight looked at his shoulder for only a moment, then spoke, " 'Tis but a scratch."

"A scratch?" Kain growled. "I took your arm off."

"No you didn't."

Kain pointed to the dismembered arm on the ground and said, "What is that then?"

"I've had worse," the Black Knight responded after glancing at his arm.

Kain was shocked. Could this vampire be more powerful then him? Kain would soon find out.

Just thenthe Black Knight charged him, crying, "Come on you pansy!"

Once again Kain took up the Soul Reaver. And in a few shot moments the Black Knight's right arm was off too.

Kain then turned to clean his blade on the Green Knight's clothing. As he bent over (Money shot for all the Fan Girls) he was kicked in the rear by the Black Knight.

"Come on then."

Kain's eyes glowed a bright red. He grew tired of this Black Knight.

"Have at you," te Black Knight said why still kicking Kain.

Kain stood up and brushed himself off. "I have won. Why do you sill intend to fight?"

"Oh, you had enough, eh?" the Black Knight taunted.

"So be it. You shall have the death you ask for," said Kain. "I will not go easy on you, even thou you have no arms."

"Yes I have."

"Look!" Kain yelled, "You have no arms."

"Just a flesh wound," the Black Knight said. With that he began to kick Kain once again. "Chicken...... Chicken!"

Kain's eyes narrowed. With one swipe of the Soul Reaver the Black Knight's right leg was taken off.

"I'll do you in for that."

Kain rubbed his temple.

"Come here," the Black Knight yelled as he bumped into Kain.

"What are you going to do bleed on me?" Kain asked.

The replay that came back was, "I'm invincible!"

"Your out of your coconut."

Still bumping into Kain the Black Knight cried, "I Melchiah have always triumphed! Have at you."

Kain couldn't stand any more of this and cut off Melchiah's remaining leg.

Melchiah looks around at where he "stands." "All right, we'll call it a draw"

"Come, Magnus," Kain said while placing the Soul Reaver on his back.

As they begin to cross the bridge, Melchiah called to them, "Oh, I see, running away, now? You yellow bastard! Come back here and take what's coming to you! I'll bite your legs off!"
