Broken Knight Chapter 1 the fall of Death

He held up his scythe it pointed to the sky his eyes were red he was crying, he slowly began to bring his scythe down. His other hand was bandaged his blood was staining the ground were he stood. The more the scythe came down the more blood seemed to gush out. His eyes were focused yet every now and then not for in front of him lied a solitary figure, a woman's figure.
She laid her eyes opened but showing that every thing inside had gone out everything was dead. Her blond hair lay spread out her arms and body showing nothing but cuts.
"Duo come hear it is over your part is done get over hear!" Duo turned around his face was rigged his features were sad and his heart he could feel was shattered. Heero stood there just looking at Duo and then to his bloody scythe. Trowa came up behind him signaling Wufei to keep Quatre away from this sight of blood and chaos.
"Heero I killed her with these hands I killed." Duo dropped to his knees not caring for if the others saw him crying it was all he could do now all he could show.
"Duo it is all right, this. this." Heero could not find words to express either a victory or a broken worrier; everything had fallen apart for Duo Maxwell in one split second.
"I killed her why me I. I am why every thing in this. Fuck this dame it what is there problem with me.God is this punishment did I do something that you did not like did I kill someone you needed why did I have to kill her!" Duo shouted Quatre jumped at the sound of Duo's voice. If Duo had the strength he would curse all of the heavens above to a, matter of words no one had seen him use often.
"Come on Duo we need to get back they will want to see if we are still alive and if you finished the mission." Heero's voice was cold and Duo looked up his face showed nothing toward Heero. He stood slowly his scythe vanishing into his necklace, Trowa turning to get the other two so they all could go back together.
Within the Castle
"Milady the deed is done and the creature destroyed there kingdom will bother us no more." Heero, Trowa, Quatre, Wufei all kneeled before a woman of long blond hair, her pink gown shown more then any of the other dark fabrics the people around her wore, her eyes turned to Duo who had not even moved at the sound of Heero's voice.
"Sir Maxwell why do you show me such dishonor I have saved your country as well as your friends and I have given you a great weapon into protecting that country in which you cherish do I not get some thanks?" The woman waved for the others to stand and a few guards came onto the floor at the movement.
"Lady Relena, I do not give you thanks for you ordered an attack on a woman that had nothing to do with my country, you have made me kill with no reason for that action." Duo turned his black cloak flowing along with his braid as he moved away for the throne and Queen Relena.
"For that I wish nothing but shame and the hopes of a new ruler soon." Duo walked on, the other men stood transfixed on Duo. Guards appeared in his way he merely looked at the men as he stopped.
"You will play this game then Queen?" Duo looked over his shoulder, Relena looked scared in her eyes but, Duo showed nothing of letting go.

"Guards do not let this one get away, do you hear me?" Relena signaled for Heero and the others to get in the action as well. Duo placed his hand on his chest his whole body became engulfed in a black flame.

"Power of Death in which I poses, lend me your strength of your own free will and no other." Duo raised his right hand into the air it was clinched in a fist now, Trowa stopped Wufei and Quatre from coming any closer, Heero thought still proceeded farther.

Duo's hand lit into a giant flame, the guards around him began to back away, but as for Heero he drew his sword. On Duo's left arm a shield appeared and he pointed it at the guards.

"Trowa draw your weapon we must obey." Heero's voice was shaky; the thought of fighting Duo was gnawing at his mind.

"Power of Wind in which I poses, lend me your strength!" Heero placed his right hand on his chest a sword appearing in his hand. The hilt gold with a blue jewel on the pommel, He pointed it at Duo's back.

"Power of Metal in which I poses, lend me your strength." Trowa did as Heero but this time it was an Ax that appeared in his hand. The blade was silver mixed into gold, but at the very top an orange jewel was placed. He also pointed at Duo's back. Duo brought his hand down at the sound of Trowa's voice, he looked at the guards in front to the sides the guards faces all changed, and he then turned around Duo's face was now tear stained. The energy that was once around him was gone he was now powered all the way down.

"Guards, now!" The guards all took advantage and attacked Duo from behind. Duo didn't seem to put up fight, he simply let them punch him and place chains around his wrists and legs.

"I will take this, my UN-loyal knight." Relena took the necklace from around his neck; Duo looked with horror and sorrow in his eyes.

"If you are stripped of power, you are but now a mere hallow soldier." She smiled at Duo as they took him away. Trowa put his Ax away, looking at the knight that he had once trusted; to now what his mind thought would this be it for Duo?

"Milady, was that truly necessary?" Heero kept his sword out but he walked to the left side of Relena. Quatre came closer and closer, Wufei was paying no attention to him.

"It was, he is a danger now and his power will go to another knight, a knight that is more loyal then that rubbish we fished from that wasted little country." Relena turned to her throne and the four knights looked on as the door to the room shut.
