Chapter 5 - Consequence
An almighty light emanated from the crystal; filling the entire castle with a blinding purple flash. A wrangling scream could be heard for miles around as Eclipse fell down into the never-ending abyss. His last thought... was Raenef.
Chris was simultaneously hiding from the whirlwind and trying numerous incantations with which to stop it - not an easy task. But just when he was near to giving up, a scream and purple light came as if from no-where.
"I've done it!" Chris shrieked, "YahooooooOUCH!" Chris stopped celebrating as a wooden bench flew through the air and impacted with his stomach. Lying on the ground in a daze, he could have sworn someone was crying.
The crying was coming from Raenef. Eclipse's actions had freed him from his unwanted powers, but at the same time had destroyed Eclipse. Raenef somehow knew this, but knew he would never forgive himself for what he had done to his best friend. Getting up slowly; he stepped lightly over the babbling, dribbling mess that was Chris, and out into the corridor. He followed the unfamiliar paths, and though he had no idea where he was going; he was determined to find Eclipse... dead or alive.
After what seemed like hours, Raenef reached a familiar room. It was Chris' room, and there was someone inside.
"Erutis, why are you here again?" Erutis looked shocked and angry at the same time.
"It's none of your business; shouldn't you be being taken over by your accidental magic or something?" Erutis snapped. Unfortunately Raenef was in no mood for Erutis' bullying.
"Right you conniving bitch!" Raenef was very, VERY angry! "I am sick of you treating me like a little kid. I want to know what you're doing in Chris' room and you're going to tell me!" Erutis was taken aback. She had never expected Raenef to ever snap back at her... But in her confusion, she neglected to realise that the thing which she was holding was now clearly visible to Raenef. "Erutis...Why are you holding that?" Raenef was confused. In Erutis' left hand; was a small purple crystal, which was not dissimilar to the one which had possesed him and killed Eclipse. At the thought of Eclipse, Raenef knew he must take action to avenge his friend. "Erutis destroy it," Raenef demanded.
"You know it was fun," Erutis sneered, "while it lasted. Playing with yours and Eclipse's pathetic minds. I knew one day I could use the crystals to control you both. When Eclipse found one of the crystals I started to use the other one to influence the one Eclipse found. I gave him special powers that embedded within him. This is why he died when the crystal was destroyed. And then you found it after you found me in Chris' room... And I decided to pay you back for your infernal intrusions. I gave you more power than you could handle. This was meant to kill you... but because of Eclipse's pathetic compassion for you, you survived. I had meant to kill you from the moment I got here. And now... later than indended i'll admit; I am going to kill you Demon Lord!" Raenef was so enraged by what his former friend had done; that he searched within himself for any last hint of magic. But at the same time, Erutis was raising the crystal, her eyes filled with evil.
