CHAPTER 10

Zeric's amulet suddenly began to crack. He stared at the amulet in surprise. The amulet broke into pieces and Calladus appeared.

"Don't listen to him, Zan," Calladus shouted. "He's the leader of the Mahjarrat tribe! He's evil and is only manipulating you!"

"I don't care! I shall take down anyone that stands in my way of taking over Runescape! Even you." Zan shouted back with eyes of hatred.

A man in full Dharok's walked in, dragging Zan's friends. "I got them, master." He said and bowed. Zeric grinned and said, "Good work, Lord Knightmare, this here is our newest comrade, Lord Zan."

Knightmare's armour changed into full Ahrim's. Chadrizard pulled out a rune two-handed sword and passed it to Calladus. "It's yours, we found it on our way here." He said.

Calladus gripped the sword assumed a battle stance. "Let them go!" He said glaring at the 3 evil men, Zan in particular. In a flash, Zan's friends leapt up and kicked Knightmare. They brandished their weapons and prepared for battle.

Zeric, being sort of a coward, stood up and said, "Kill them, I..have..matters to attend to."

Zeric then ran way. "We can take this bub." Seebazz said and gripped his dragon battle axe. "I will strike you down, if I must." Calladus said to Zan.

"You will try." Zan replied, grinning and spinning his dragon two handed swords. The two warriors jumped forward and their swords clashed.

They exchanged blows quickly and parried any attack that came in their way. The battle was growing very intense. Slowly, Calladus gave ground and Zan continued to press on the attack.

Calladus parried Zan's furious blows. Zan continued to strike viciously. Zan seemed to be winning. Calladus now moved backwards very quickly.

The battle went on to the exit. They continued to exchange blows in the dark tunnel, using only their ears to detect attacks.

The battle continued. They reached the exit and was now in the water. As their armour was heavy, they began to sink down, but still continued to slash and stab at their opponent.

With a strong push from their legs, the two fearsome warriors submerged from the water and climbed onto rocks.

They continued to fight, each of them standing on a rock. Calladus saw that tjhey were heading towards a waterfall.

As the rocks got farther from each other, the two warriors summoned up all theur energy and fired a fire blast at each other.

The two blasts collided and exploded. Zan continued to shoot fire blasts at Calladus. Calladus spun his sword and blocked the blasts.

He then shot out a powerful earth wave. Zan got hit and fell off his rock. As Zan sank down, Calladus shot a wind wave into the water, creating a water tornado heading for Zan.

Zan was pushed down further and dropped one of his dragon two handed swords. Fuming mad now, Zan kicked the ground with all his strength and floated up. He climbed onto another rock, a much bigger one now,

The two warriors then casted every spell they knew, each colliding with another and sending explosions all over.

Calladus now saw that they were very close to the waterfall. As they neared the waterfall, Calladus jumped off his rock and landed on another rock that was already below the waterfall.

Zan was surprised and did not have enough time to jump. He fell down the waterfall with other rocks smashing into his helmet. His helmet was knocked away and another rock crashed into his face.

He fell into the water, injured. But he did not give up and kicked again, floating up the water and climbing on to another rock.

"You will pay!" Zan said, his eyes glowing evil yellow. Calladus just remained quiet and continued the battle.

To them, it was not just a battle for the world of Runescape. It was personal, a battle of former friends.

As they exchanged blows, Calladus somersaulted over Zan and landed behind him, standing on Zan's rock. I'm so sorry. That was all Calladus said in his mind before slashing Zan into 2.

Meanwhile, back at the headquartes of Zeric, Zan's friends were handling the fight pretty well. Knightmare had mounted a hellhound and changed his armour into Karil's.

He took aim and fired his crossbow at Zan's friends. They dodged the blows. Webbuu was firing his best spells, Blitzer boy and Spiritmage were firing their arrows like crazy.

The others somersaulted onto the hellhound. Zana Taru, Seebaz, Jaffar, 2 I8 2 live, Cobra prince, Assasin 910, Hookman and Dexft pinned Knightmare down as hard as they could.

Otaku, Aay, Hellwolf, Nick Yang, Jack Aranel, Chadrizard and Mega blade stabbed the hellhound to death. They then teamed up and pushed Kinghtmare down.

It was now Webbu's turn for action. He casted Entangle on Knightmare, not allowing him to move. Blitzer boy and Spirit fired arrows at Knightmare while the others dug their weapons into Knightmare.

And with that, that was the end of Knightmare. Suddenly, Calladus appeared. "Zeric is going to get a crystal that will grant him immortality, we have to stop him!" Je shouted, leading the way.

After exploring the whole cave, they finally found Zeric hurrying some goblins to mine their way through the cave walls.

With one last strike of a pickaxe from one of the goblins, the wall broke down. "So long, suckers!" Zeric shouted and ran into a room that was inside the cave wall. There was a bright blue crystal.

He hurried to it and grabbed it, and a bright light shone across the room. "No! We're too late!" Calladus shouted, shielding his eyes from the light.

"No, we're not!" All of Zan's friends shouted and dashed through the lights, closing their eyes. They dashed forward and threw their weapons forward. KABOOM!

An explosion occurred and sent everyone flying away. When the smoke cleared, they lay the dead body of Zeric, with broken pieces of the crystal lying about.

"I told you so. We're not too late." Aay said. Suddenly, the cave walls begin to crack. "The cave's collapsing, hurry, we have to escape!" Mega blade said.

"Right now, I'm just worried about getting to the exit!" Cobra prince shouted and all of them ran forward.

They ran and ran along the cave walls and finally reached the exit. They jumped into the water and swam away.

As they submerged, they could see Zan's body pieces floating in the water.

They carried Zan's body pieces and buried them, each of Zan's friends had prayed to him once.

Calladus was the last to pray and put the rock that he had given Zan beside his grave.
