The Jack of Blades emanated a shroud of red evil when he touched the ground. The Jack carried a katana with mystic runes in one hand, and he eyed the Sword of Aeons from behind what William could only describe as the most hideous mask ever created. The Jack was garbed in the most evil and horrifying garments possible. He wore an ancient crimson hood and top and leggings of magic, with boots looking to have come back from hell itself. And of course, the Jack had his mask.

The Jack announced to William Black in a cold dry voice, "That Sword belongs to me, William... I will pry it from your dead body when I kill you. Or... you can give it here and save me the trouble!"

Something attacked William's mind. His will power was weakening, and he found himself taking footsteps towards the Jack of Blades. He did all he could to resist the power, but he was weakened from fighting the Knight. His body kept pushing him forward, until he was right in front of the Jack. His arm handed Jack the Sword.

"Drop it," hissed the Jack.

William dropped the Sword of Aeons,and the Jack of Blades bent over to pick it up. When the Jack tried to touch it, however, the Sword sent a fire throughout his arm that made even a being of the Void wince in pain.

"I see what I must do then..." whispered the Jack. "I must kill you first, William Black!"

The Jack of Blades pulled his katana out off his back and swung at William. William rolled backwards, barely missing being decapitated. William used his will power to push the Jack backwards, but the Jack had magic too. The Jack brought a bolt of lightning down from the sky and shot it at William. William caught the bolt and fought it to go back to the Jack of Blades. It hit the Jack, sending the Jack spinning off until he hit the hard snow with a thud.

When the Jack recovered, William was diving for the Sword of Aeons, which seemed to be in between the battle of the two. The Jack used his magic to set a temporary forcefield on the Sword, which William hit with his face and bloodied his nose. With blood running down his nose William dodged the throw of the katana by the Jack of blades. He picked the katana up from the ground and hit the forcefield with it. Instead of deactivating the forcefield, it snapped the sword in two.

"Damn ye!" howled the Jack of Blades. "Then this is a battle of magics, indeed!"

The Jack of Blades held his hands in the air and his body floated upwards, continuing to emanate the evil red glow. Suddenly a vortex opened and souls began to come out of it, and to go into the Jack of Blade's mask. His power was growing stronger, and William would not be able to defeat him if he reached his full strength. William jumped up and grabbed the boots of the Jack of Blades, and pulled him down. The Jack hit the ground, and William jumped into the vortex.

In the vortex, he was back in the palace of the Jack of Blades. On the altar was the same Sword of Aeons he had stolen from the Jack earlier. He touched the Sword,and as he did, the forcefield in Albion wore off, and the Sword of Aeons existed in two places at one. He jumped back through the portal to Mount Ruon, and the Jack of Blades was awaiting him with the other Sword of Aeons. They clashed back an forth and used powerful magic for a very long time.

Then, William swung with all of his Will and Strength combined, and the Sword of Aeons in Jacks hand was knocked out of his grasp, and William caught that sword in his grasp. He now held two powerful swords, and as he held them one sword began to change and to emanate a godly, good feeling. To that day, that sword is known as Avo's Tear.

With Avo's Tear and the Sword of Aeons, William Black sliced the Jack of Blades into three pieces. The Jack screamed in anger and agony, and his body evaporated into red smoke and his mask floated up, up, into the Void.

Avo's Tear shimmered in the light of the sun, and was gone.

With that, the vortex opened up the third and final time, and William prepared himself to face the Queen of Blades.
