Arthas leaned against the wall and watched his little Death Knight train. He smirked he did the right thing by turning this paladin into the undead. Sooner or later she would have grown old and died but now she'll stay young and powerful forever.

'She'll stay by my side forever to' he thought as he watched her lithe body twirl around his rider of the Unholy and swup out catching his ankle and tumbling the 80 elite to the ground. His rider looked over at the sound of his masters laughter filled the room. Cris looked over at Arthas as he hugged his sides and contuined laughing hysterically. She smiled and reached out helping the rider to his feet. As they got into their fighting stances the Lich Kings laughter died down and they looked over at him. His glowing blue eyes were locked on Cris which made her all the more uncomfortable. She was used to dualing Tryce or Strinnity and even Sardys sometimes. She didn't know this guys moves or anything and she was having to learn as they went. She barly had the time to duck as his sword swupped over her head. She glared at the rider before her and held out her hand as a circle of frost swept around him she turned and kicked him against the wall followed by pressing her sword against his neck. Arthas started clapping and walked over pulling his rider out of the room. They were all very sore losers expecally against a brand new Death Knight and a women at that. When he turned back toward Cris she was leaning against the wall staring out the window.

"Cris you did very good today"

She smiled at him and took of her helm and hung it on the wall.

"So when do I get to dual you" she joked. He smiled and walked up to her.

"How about now"

Her mouth fell open and her eyes darted around looking for a escape path but Arthas had her blocked by his body.

"Uhh I was joking Arthas I know I cant beat you"

"Put on your helm and pick up your sword little one"

Cris gulped and put her helm on and turned to face the Lich King across the room.

'Now see what you got yourself into' she thought 'Hell if I survive I'll be the only one to ever survive dualing the Lich King'

Arthas grinned at her.

"Attack" he growled. Cris steadied her racing heart and started circling him. She kept her body relaxed and her eyes locked with his. When he lifted his hand she dodged underneath it and jumped on his back. Her legs wrapped around his waist as tight as she could get and her arms wrapped around his neck. Arthas laughed defently a high warlord hes seen them do this before with someone more powerful. He reached up and grabbed her arms holding them more against him and bent forward as fast as he could. That caused Cris to loss her grip around his waist and she got flipped over him landing on her back. She glared up at him and kicked out but he dodged the kick. She jumped up and through her sword down and her helm. He laughed and followed her lead.

'So my little death knight wants to wrestle me' he thought.

Before she knew it he had tackled her to the ground his legs straddling her waist and his hands held down her wrists. She smirked to herself. Arthas may be the Lich King but he was still a man. She started twisting her hips and like she planned he leaned his weight more forward trying to hold her still but she used his own weight and flipped him onto his back her straddling him. The look of surprise that hit his eyes was priceless. She had outsmarted the Lich King. She prepared herself for him to roll again cause she would just use his momentum to get back on top. He surprised her when he wrapped his arms around her waist and stood up. Cris gasped and wrapped her legs around his waist and bent backwards she grabbed his ankles. He rolled and Cris was again on top but her legs and arms where stuck underneath him.

"Well played my dear" Arthas laughed "but I believe I have won"

"It would seem that way" Cris laughed trying to wiggle her arms and legs free.

"I believe I get to claim my prize"

She stopped wiggling and looked down at him and the devilious smirk on his face. When he pulled her down for a passionate kiss Cris closed her eyes and kissed him back. She couldn't believe how her life had turned out. Alittle over a month ago she had been planning to kill this guy. She had thought him evil, uncaring, and monstrous. Now she was able to see the side of him he kept hiden from the world. When he broke the kiss she was panting and he smirked helped her stand so he could get up. She picked up her sword and sheathed it.

"Arthas do you think Thrall is actually not going to say anything"

He looked over at her and shrugged.

"I don't know whats so bad if he does"

"Ill be a traitor"

He frowned at her and walked up to her.

"And…."

"Arthas what did you do" she asked suddenly. His eyebrow raised as he stared down at her.

"What do you mean"

"When you became the Lich King how did you handle with the betrayal and hatred of the people that were once your friends"

"Before I became the Lich King they had already betrayed me at Stratholme"

"I guess so" she whispered and started toward the door. Arthas watched after her and frowned.

"Cris I don't think Thrall will tell anyone"

She turned and raised her eyebrow.

"Why"

"He told you your position as high warlord will always be there"

She smiled at him

"I guess your right" she said as she ran to him and through her arms around his shoulders. He smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Of course I am I'm the Lich King"

She started laughing and swatted his arm. He scooped her up in his arms.

"You use that excuse a lot" she joked as she stared up into his glowing blue eyes.
