Her emerald eyes traveled around the room. The Arclights in the air had shocked looks on their faces. Amelia sighed and shut her eyes, hanging her head as tears began to stream down her cheeks.

Trey had so many feelings and thoughts going through his head. He stared at his twin sister, wanting to just hug her and tell her it would all be okay. But he couldn't.

So he did the only thing he could do.

"Amelia… I'm not trying to be nosy...but what how did you get reincarnated?" Trey stared down from the ceiling. Amelia looked up with a tear-stained face.

"I don't know. All I know is a dragon brought me back to life. I had named him Frost...but... but I was killed before I knew for sure."

Vector found himself laughing like a maniac again, and for once he didn't mean to. Everyone turned to him as he wiped his eyes of tears.

"Ahh, for once I mean it when I say I'm sorry. Uncalled for. But I find it funny because I know how she came back to life!"

"Well speak, damn it!" Durbe demanded. Amelia looked at him with a surprised look. She'd never heard him lash out quite like that before. Even Vector had his eyes go wide momentarily before he straightened out.

"Alright alright. Geez, take a chill pill dude. I'll speak."

*Flashback*

Amelia was dead. Vector smirked. He loomed over her lifeless body, not taking the sword he'd thrust into her out of her bloodied side. His violet eyes twitched over towards a sound that was rapidly coming towards him.

The ice dragon. It bounded over to where the bodies lay. Smelled them, licked some of them. Vector remembered correctly that this dragon had recently been named Frost by Amelia.

"Ah, Frost. How surprising you come here. I sense you realized something was wrong, yes?" Vector stared right at the dragon. Its icy-blue eyes gazed into his violet ones as he howled in rage.

Vector however, simply laughed.

"You cannot do a thing about it. Poor thing, if you'd been here only moments ago, you may have been able to do something useful. Alas, you failed."

Frost lifted his head and roared. He was angered. The dragon gently lifted Amelia's body and walked away with it. Vector thought it was strange behavior for a dragon, so he followed. When he saw Frost lay the girl down where he did, he understood completely and smirked.

"I see. You put the two love birds together. Interesting."

Frost snorted and placed his clawed paw on Amelia's chest. He had a bond with her, and had communicated with Spitz Spitz Flame long enough to know she and Durbe had loved each other very much. The large ice dragon scooted them closer together. They would've wanted to be with one another right now.

Vector went wide-eyed when a glow emitted from Frost's paw. He didn't want to believe this dragon had the special ability of Soul Swap.

"No! No no no! You shouldn't have that ability! No dragon has for years!" Vector raced up with a totally different sword and tried to stab Frost. He flicked his tail and knocked the prince away, then turned back to Amelia. He seemed to be smiling as he focused, searching through the future to find a worthy Swapper.

Frost roared when he did.

The light grew brighter. Vector yelled and shielded his eyes. When he opened them, he could tell something had changed.

It was true. Frost had the ability to swap souls with two people, one from the future and one from the present. And he'd just swapped Amelia's soul with another person's.

That meant she had another chance to live.

Vector snarled. "I will have another opportunity to kill her for good. You'll see, this will have all been done for nothing." He lifted his sword, and thrust it into himself.

Frost just stared around. Everyone was dead now. Even him. The dragon had used the last ounce of energy he had to complete that.

He toppled over, dead from lack of help to his health.

*End flashback*

Trey widened his eyes, as did the rest of the Arclights. Durbe was that way as well, having been killed before Amelia. He'd had no idea.

Amelia began to shake. She straightened up rather quickly, however, and held her ground.

She was ready to battle.

Vector was too. He soared up into the air, striking at Amelia. She cried out as she landed on the ground.

"Talk time is over Amelia. It's time to battle." Vector raised a clawed hand up into the air. Amelia stared in fear as he raised Durbe into the air.

"Ah what the hell?! Let me go!" Durbe struggled and attempted to get down as he was raised with the Arclights.

Well, now it was official. Amelia was on her own.

Vector laughed and lunged at Amelia. She was sent flying against the wall, and groaned as she fell to the floor.

"Oh damn...that hurt," Amelia growled and stood up, then met Vector eye-to-eye in the sky.

"I hope you're ready, Amelia," Vector growled out. "The real battle has just begun."

Amelia smirked. "Bring. It. On."

They charged up to each other, and began throwing punches at one another. A few times they'd been flung into the wall. Amelia had knocked Vector down multiple times with her Crest.

Vector stood up and ran at Amelia. He scratched her, knocked her down, and threw her against the wall again. The pink-haired girl jumped right back up and tackled her opponent. She screeched and screamed and scratched him bare. Vector began to bleed as he yelled when some of the blows came onto him. They were harsh and surprisingly very painful.

Amelia knew that would only work for a little while, though. Pretty soon she'd need a stronger power. This was just a stall so she could figure out how to get to that power.

One strong enough to end Vector once and for all.
