Years had passed since Sir Thedore had his last encounter with Antoni and his apprentice dragon slayer, Seda. Soon enough, Antoni would send her to finish the mission of his order. Seda had mastered three of her four swords and was now a fierce warrior. The young fourteen year old they had found in that small tribe was now eighteen and part of an elite and old society, renowned across many corners of the known world.

Antoni had seen her as a success for the most part, a good investment for the trouble they went through to get her. Seda (as she came to be known by), however, saw these people as her family and the only people she had ever truly known. Memories of her previous life were still to that very day unknown by herself, and if was very likely that she would never know. Antoni had often scorned her when she asked where she was from, that was after she was able to ask him. Her old language was the only thing she had of her past and she had for the most part replaced it with English, in which she was fluent in less than half a years time to the surprise of Antoni.

All was going according to plan with Antoni and her training was near complete. He soon had to tell her it was time. Her purpose in life was to finish off the last of the dragons in these lands and the time now seemed ready to send her off to complete the task. He always wondered though, was she ready? Would she be a good investment? Would she come back alive?

"Seda," Antoni said, calling her from the sparring room. "Seda come here."

The girl turned around, sword in hand, a faint glow of red in her eyes as she clenched her sword.

"Yes, Master Antoni." She said, placing her sword back in its sheath on her side as she quickly dashed over towards Antoni.

"Seda, how do you feel about your last sword?" He questioned.

"I feel as if it is an extension of my arm." She said, a small grin upon her face. "I know I am ready with them all Master Antoni."

Antoni nodded, not yet convinced that she was ready. He knew her well, she was very kind hearted after all of the intense fights and beatings they had put her through to make her heart cold. She still saw them as family, but she had to know this was business before he would send her off.

"Addi," Antoni barked, "Come her with your best sword, I have a task to ask of you"

Addi obediently did as his master told him and grabbed his most prized sword, silently wondering why he needed it. He rushed over to join Antoni and Seda, sword in hand.

Antoni nodded in his direction before turning his back towards the two. "Seda, you say you are ready, but I feel as if your heart is too soft. Unsheathe your sword now. This is your last test before I send you to Sir Theodore" He said calmly.

Seda, looked in Addi's direction for a moment before unsheathing her dragon bone sword. Something was wrong though, She could feel it and she did not like it. Seda was sure that Addi felt the same thing as their master was always an odd man in the end of the day.

"Now Addi, I need you to kill Seda" He said, now facing them both once again. "I need you to kill her, if you do not kill her I will kill you."

A look of shock appeared on Seda's face, "Master," She exclaimed, "Do not say that you wish to kill me?"

"No, dear child, if you do not wish to die, then kill him first" Antoni proceeded to leave the area, a stone cold look upon his face to match the heart he had.

Addi looked at her for less than a moment before drawing his sword, "Forgive me Maker" he whispered. "Seda, you must die!" He said before lunging at her.

"I- I understand" Seda said quickly avoiding the sword as he closed on her. Her eyes glowed a blood red as she removed her sword from its sheath.

Antoni watched in the background, this was going to be a show, a demonstration of her talents against someone who she considered family. This was the ultimate test for her, time would only tell if she would live to see the results.

The blades clinked as they clipped the sides of each other, both knew the other ones moves as they were evenly matched. Seda though, grew quicker with each slash of her sword, the blood of the dragons flowing faster through her veins. Addi noticed this, he himself growing tired as her strength and speed increased. Then he slipped, one move made wrong and just like that, it was over.

Addi's sword fell to his side, a blade now piercing through his stomach. Seda's withdrew the blade from his body. A look of shock hit her when she finally realized what she had done. Her glowing red eyes faded almost immediately. He was a brother to her, and she had just slain him, slain what ever family she had. Addi soon fell to the ground, coughing before taking his last breaths, his story in the world had now ended.

Antoni walked over to the scene, Seda had passed with flying colors. He looked over towards Seda; she looked like a true Slayer then, the blood of the dragons were still fresh in her veins. Her seemingly dead eyes looked at him.

"Master Antoni, I have completed the task" she said, tears falling down her ivory cheeks.

"You are ready then Seda," Antoni said, "Gather your belongings and swords immediately, You are now ready to finish your Mission"

Seda sheathed her sword, "Right away, Master Antoni" she said, her voice quiet as she slowly left from the room.

Antoni looked at her and sighed. The sight of Addi on the ground reminded him of Seda's Father. Two members of the dragon slayers and their stories both ended so similarly. In a way, this was Seda's revenge, though she would never know it was Addi that had stabbed her father with another member of the organization.

The other servant of Antoni appeared from the other room, a small hint of disgust appeared on his face as he saw his partner dead on the floor.

"Ah, just the man I wanted to see," Antoni said, "Clean this quickly and ready the wagon, we must bring Seda to Theodore." He stated, "This was just a sample of what she will do to the foul creature, she was a good investment indeed!"
