Nice: Hi everyone! I know you are all wondering why I'm updating this story and not my other two stories. Well, it is because those chapters are very long and this story's chapters were already completely written out already so I decided to post these first. Love: A Sincere Heart updated next week since I'm on holiday that whole week. So with that done here comes the first sad chapter of Friends Forever, Right?

Also, remember, I have only six spots left for my request list on deviantart, so tell me want you want and you will have it!

Warning: Hints of past Royalshipping. And a Angsting! Atticus

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. If I did, do you think Kaiser would dead?

On with the fic!

Chapter 5: Too Late

Atticus stared at the two people dueling right in front of him. The two people who were once dearest to him are now strangers. He didn't know how it came to this point, how Zane and Alexis- no Hell Kaiser and White Ice got to the point of dueling to the death. They were once the perfect couple with their gentle smiles and fleeting touches. All of that was gone now.

Atticus visibly shook as White Ice cackled evilly as she attacked Hell Kaiser and the electricity shocked his body. He was in pain but shook it off with an evil laugh of his own, declaring that he would win and White Ice would die and that he "loved the pain."

Of course, White Ice scoffed back, her blank brown eyes boring into Hell Kaiser's insane blue grey ones and stating that when she was done he would be nothing but ashes on the ground.

Atticus couldn't take it anymore.

"Stop it! Stop it please! I beg you, please turn back into the people I once knew and loved!" he cried out to them. The two ex-lovers stopped and stared at Atticus. He waited to see a glimmer of who they once were in their eyes, but he saw nothing. The two teens laughed at him and went back to their deadly duel.

It was then Atticus knew that it was too late. The two lovers, his dearest sister and his best friend, were truly gone and monsters took their place.

And in realizing this, he sank to the ground and wept as the two monsters cackles echoed in his ears.

The End

N: Yeah. I had to do it. I said this story was going to have sad parts in it. R&R people.
