Chapter 12

………………….

Salvador was about ready to stab Antonio, when a clash of swords was heard.

Antonio looked back down to see Conrart, blocking Salvador's sword.

"That was a low blow, and you know it." Conrart growled.

Yuuri gasped as the scene before him. Wolfram came from behind him, furious.

"What are you doing here, wimp? You are going to get your self killed!" Wolfram tugged on Yuuri's hand. All of the sudden there was a crash as the windows were broken and some soldiers jump in.

………………….

Wolfram took out his sword, other hand already forming a fireball.

Antonio stood up and picked his sword up, dusting himself with his other hand.

"Salvador, your men are dieing." Antonio said, face betraying none of his emotions.

"I don't care about them. I just want you dead." Salvador hissed as Conrart pushed him back down, swords close to his face.

"I feel loved, you are going through hall the trouble just for me." Antonio took some steps back and looked up at the stairs. Yuuri was behind Wolfram, who was in a fighting stand. Another crash on the right, as more windows were shattering.

"What are you doing here? You are supposed to be outside!" Antonio growled up at Yuuri.

……………………

"Don't worry, we have it under control." Yozak's voice flowed down to where Antonio and Conrart stood. Yozak walked over to the rail, sword leaning on his shoulder, making sure to keep all signs of pain off of his face.

"Yozak! I told you to stay put!" Conrart yelled at him. His anger rising, yet he never took his eyes of Salvador.

"I could not leave Heika unprotected captain!" Yozak yelled back down. Wolfram was glaring daggers at Yuuri, who was looking down at the floor guiltily.

Gwendal and Gunter walked in, breathing hard.

"Sebastian is making sure that all captures are sent to the dungeon. Things are settling down, though." Gwendal informed them, before finally noticing what was going on around there.

"Heika! What are you doing here?" Gunter's eyes widened in panic when he saw Yuuri. Yuuri pouted and walked down the stairs.

"I just wanted to help." Yuuri mumbled. Yozak and Wolfram followed behind him.

Conrart disarmed Salvador and pulled back, grabbing him from his collar.

"Here we have the started of this whole mess. Salvador."

"I am not done, I will kill you!" Salvador smirked, as all of the sudden he pushed Conrart away and threw some crystal. BOOM!

Windows were broken, paintings and flowers vases crumbled down. Gas filled up the room. Wolfram had made sure to push Yuuri down, covering him with his body. Gunter had covered both Gwendal and himself with his coat. Conrart covered his mouth, trying to make anything out. Yozak had pushed Antonio out of the way, knowing that Salvador would strike then.

The doors were opened and all of the sudden the air was swept outside.

"What is going on?" Sebastian cried out breathlessly, having heard the boom and rushed to see what happened.

"Yozak!" Conrart cried, finally seeing what was going on. Salvador had Yozak in his arms, with a sword pressed up to Yozak's neck.

Antonio was on the ground, looking up shocked at Yozak who had pushed him out of the way.

"Let him go." Conrart raised his sword. Salvador raised an eyebrow when he noticed everyone tense up. Sebastian took out his sword.

"You heard him, let him go." Sebastian warned.

Salvador walked back, bringing Yozak along with him.

Antonio stood up and dusted his pants.

"Make you a deal, you let him go and I'll take his place." Antonio folded his arms and looked at Salvador, calculatingly.

"Don't." Yozak whizzed up, before flinching as the sword was pressed tighter to his neck.

"If he wants to die, than you should let him." Salvador cooed.

"No one except you will be dieing." Sebastian snarled, taking a hesitant step forward.

"Now now, no one move." Salvador glared at them. Antonio glance at Yozak, and than at everyone else.

"Salvador, did father ever tell you of when he cheated on my mother." Antonio brought up. Salvador looked at Antonio like he had grown another head. Every one else also stared incredulously at Antonio.

"I do believe your wife was very lonely when you use to go out and fight." Antonio continued, a small smile playing in his lips.

"You lie!" Salvador shook with rage, his grip on the sword loosening. Yozak saw his chance and hit Salvador on the stomach, causing to drop the sword and hunch down, letting him go. Yozak kneed him and pushed him down to the floor, grabbing the sword and pressing it to Salvador's neck.

"What are we going to do with him?" Yozak looked over at Yuuri, hesitant.

"You can't kill him." Yuuri ordered.

"We'll send him to the dungeon. Leave him there and let's see what become of him." Antonio decided, calling for some of his men to take him to the dungeon.

Yuuri walked over to Antonio and shook his hand.

"Just, I'm glad we are allies now." Yuuri grinned.

"Hn." Antonio shook it none the less.

Yuuri gasped when all of the sudden he was pulled back, sword pressed up to his neck.

"Now, that we have Salvador dealt with, Yozak?" Sebastian looked at Yozak expectantly.

"What do you want from me?" Yozak cried exasperated.

"To stay with me." Sebastian stated firmly.

"Why?" Yozak sighed, tiredly.

"I won't ever love you." Yozak went on, hoping that Sebastian will see reason.

"Let him go Sebastian." Conrart frowned, taking a step forward.

"You stay back! It is your fault Yozak does not love me!" Sebastian glared at Conrart, who kept still not wanting to risk Yuuri getting injured.

"I'll let him go as long as Yozak promises to stay with me." Sebastian stated once again, looking at Yozak.

Yozak looked at Conrart, helplessly, unsure of what to do. Conrart sighed, and did not look at Yozak. What could he say to him, he himself did not know what to do.

Yozak looked back at Yuuri and sighed, taking a step forward.

"Sebastian. Fine." Yozak walked over to Sebastian. "Let him go." Yozak raised his hands, but Sebastian shook his head and took s step back.

"Not until you swear, on Conrart's life, that you will stay with me."

Yozak closed his eyes, before opening them again. His blue eyes were pained, but he knew what he had to do.

"I, Yozak, will stay with you, I swear by-"

"wait!" Yuuri cried out. "Don't Yozak!" Yuuri cried out, he did not want him to do that for him.

"I swear it on-"

"Watch out!" Yozak found himself being pulled down to the ground and covered by a warm body. A gust of warm air prickled his skin, and he couldn't help but cough as the smoke got into his mouth.

…………………………

After everything quieted down, the warm body on top of him moved. Yozak blinked a few times before finally opening his eyes completely. Conrart was straddling his waist and looking around, searching.

Yozak frowned and looked around, finally noticing what happened. By the looks of it, it was Wolfram who sent his flames to play around. Wolfram stood up, groggily having most of his energy sent on that attack. Gunter spluttered some ash out of his mouth, moving his cape to the side, allowing Gwendal to sit up and breath fresh air. That had been the second time Gunter did that, and he was hoping the last time for that day.

A groan broke everyone from their stupor, immediately setting them into action. Conrart stood up and rushed over, only to be beaten by a panicky Wolfram. Gunter tugged Gwendal over to Wolfram's side. Yozak winced and made it to his knees, carefully, he crawled over clenching his jaw so as to not make any sound.

"Yuuri? Come on wimp!" Wolfram lifted him into his arms.

"Wolfram?" Yuuri cracked his eyes open. Everybody let a breath of relief.

"Your majesty, you always end up needing saving!" Yozak teased.

"I'm sorry, because of me you and Conrart were going to break up." Yuuri immediately apologized feeling bad for disobeying them and coming to cause just more harm.

"Don't sweat it your majesty. Just like how you'll never be rid of Wolfram, or how Gwendal will never be rid of Gunter, Conrart will never really be rid of me, right Captain?" Yozak grinned.

"I wouldn't have it any other way." Conrart smiled.

"Wimp, you didn't get hurt did? I think I over did it?" Wolfram bit his lip worriedly, looking around.

"I'm fine Wolfram, Antonio he pushed me out of the way……" Yuuri looked around wildly.

"Where are Sebastian and Antonio?" Gwendal voice the question and looked around.

Another groan caught their attention.

"I think those are them." Yuuri sighed in relief. Wolfram nodded and helped Yuuri up. He was a bit stiff, but that was to be expected. Conrart wrapped an arm around Yozak's waist and listed him up.

"Hey, you two." Yozak called to them, as they surrounded them. Sebastian groaned as he cracked an eye open, his eyebrows furrowed.

"What happened? Antonio?" Sebastian looked down and shook Antonio. Yozak frowned when Antonio did not move or made any sound. Sebastian immediately sat up.

"Antonio!" He shook him harder. The rest looked at each other, uncomfortable. Yuuri could feel his blood begin to freeze. Antonio had saved him….and Sebastian….it was his fault….all his fault….

"Sebastian……stop….it hurts….." a barely audible voice spoke up. Sebastian immediately stopped and looked down. Antonio's eyes were barely open.

"Antonio!" Everybody exclaimed, happily.

"Hmm, that is my name….don't wear it out…." Antonio mumbled, unable to speak any louder than that.

Every one chuckled. Yozak felt something in his throat, he began to cough.

A hiss erupted from Antonio's lips as he immediately sat up.

"Infirmary, we need to all go to the infirmary. Yozak, especially." Antonio whined, pain shooting up his body as he tried to scramble up.

"Antonio calm down." Sebastian tried to calm him.

"Poison! Salvador! Smoke! Now!" Antonio cried out, struggling harder as Yozak began to cough more. Conrart understood what Antonio aid.

"Yozak, hand on!" Conrart immediately picked him, bridal style. Yozak wheezed, trying to get more oxygen to his lungs.

Sebastian frowned and picked Antonio up, heading to the infirmary.

"Wimp, we need antidote. The gas Salvador threw had poison, we have to hurry!" Wolfram helped Yuuri to the infirmary. Gwendal and Gunter walked behind them, trying to keep calm so the poison in their blood stream did not spread fast.

To Be Continue…..

……….

You know, I was thinking, what would happen if they did not get Yozak the medicine on time? What would happened if he went bye bye? I decided not to think about it, because it would make me cry…..because well I love him! blah….but it seems like many don't like him…..so, may be that is one of the reasons for me parting? Hmm? Oh well, what did you people think about this one? Hope it came out good! And….the next chapter is the last one, hopefully, unless I decide to write another, but it looks unlikely…I guess it depends what people comment, really…hmm…..love you all!
