A/N Didn't write much 'cause I was in the middle of my exams, bt no, last chapter wasn't the end. I'd be crazy to end there. Well: ENJOY!

No one exactly knew how, but they managed to find Mila and free her. Now they were trying to get her on the Saint Nazaire, but she was severely weakened and could barely walk. Mahad had to support her and force her to keep walking. But she slowed then down, and the Guardians were close on their tail.

Lena walked backwards, keeping the Guardians on a distance by attacking them. Dahlia had stayed behind on the Saint Nazaire. They would only use her if it was necessary. Marcus was with her.

Cortes and Wayan ran into them and also started attacking the Guardians. Cortes didn't use a gun, but his earth-bending powers. Well, metal-bending this time. Two Guardians ran into a wall he shoved. Wayan couldn't help smirking.

The black Pirate shot three others down. He seemed to enjoy it. So did Cortes.

But when they reached an open room that looked more like an entry hall, they faced Oslo.

----

Dahlia immediately knew something had gone wrong. She was dressed in her usual clothes now, instead of a dress, because her usual clothes were much handy in a fight.

'Something's wrong.' she said, as she jerked up.

'Eärendil, listen. It's dangerous. Cortes'll call when he needs help.'

But the young girl didn't listen and darted out o the Saint Nazaire.

Towards a confrontation with Oslo.

Towards a fight with her own father.

Towards the man she hated more then anything in the world.

----

'Well well, Mac, so you couldn't resist…Tss, so unlike you.'

'Quit the crap, Oslo.' Cortes replied.

Oslo face changed into anger.

'You haven't got the right to tell me what to do.' he said, as he used his seijin powers to lift Cortes up.

'BUT I DO!' a female voiced yelled.

Mahad groaned.

Cortes cursed.

It was Dahlia.

----

The horses were left behind on the block where they had picked up Marcus. Yet Delinquento, the black male, lifted up his head, sensing that something was wrong with his master. Then he scaffolded. Other horses joined him. Delinquento jumped of the block, immediately followed by the white mare Asfaloth, the brown stud Estor, and almost an entire fleet of horses.

The horses weren't normal.

They could withdraw their wings, and now they let their wings grow again.

And they went to find their master.

----

Midnight looked up. He had been roaming around ever since Dahlia discovered her past, but now he could sense she was in trouble. He was near her location, so he ran as fast as his paws could carry him and scurried of westwards.

----

'Eärendil…what a nice surprise.' Oslo said sarcastic.

'I know how stupid you are, so I'm gonna spell it out for you: S-H-U-T U-P!' Dahlia answered.

At that moment, Guardians flocked into the room. But the horses arrived too, kicking and scaffolding and attacking anyone who came near the select group of people. Midnight arrived and joined the fight.

The horses, with Midnight's help, managed to create a safe circle. The only danger was Oslo, but the animals were smart enough to know it was Dahlia's deal.

Seeing how easily his Guardians could be defeated made Oslo even more angry. He pun around and send a seijin blast towards Mahad. Mahad was dead before he hit the wall.

'Mahad!' Marcus yelled. Oslo slowly turned around and was filled with shock when he saw the legendary Marcus Farrell. But the man wasn't interested in his enemy. He was concerned about his son. Mila pressed her fingers in her son's neck and gasped for breath as she realized he was dead.

This filled Dahlia with only one thing.

Pure rage.

And she lost control over herself. Her powers were in control now.

And man, what she did to Oslo a first sure wasn't pretty. I'm not even gonna describe.

Dahlia lifted the half-conscious Oslo up and smashed him against the wall.

'Dahlia, stop!' Marcus yelled, suddenly realizing what she was doing. Cortes had come to the same conclusion.

'Eärendil, you must stop this!' Cortes yelled.

But she didn't. She couldn't.

He had killed Mahad, the only man she loved more then anything in the world. Oslo was nothing more then a monster. A monster that thought he could get away with everything. Well, Dahlia certainly proved otherwise.

In a last flare of rage, she killed Oslo.

Many Guardians tried to break through the barricade the horses formed, but couldn't. The horses kicked them back. Some Guardians died because of that, but no one really cared.

Dahlia had become herself again, and now fell on her knees next to Mahad's unmoving body, bursting in a flood of tears.

Suddenly the wound in his chest glowed bright, and then it healed. Mahad groaned as he opened his eyes. He sat up.

Dahlia was still crying, but this time they were tears of happiness.

'How did you do that?' Mahad wondered.

Dahlia shook her head. 'I didn't do anything.'

'Mahad, to be honest, that power came from you.' Marcus pointed out.

'What?' Everyone except Cortes exclaimed.

'No time to explain. We need to get away.' Cortes said.

They rushed to the Saint Nazaire, where Mila finally took the time to show how happy she was to see Marcus again by pressing her lips onto his. He kissed her back tenderly.

Dahlia and Mahad did the same, feeling like they were invincible.

He shall reunite Earth with the Lady of the Light.

The end
