"NEW ORDER"

"DARKUS LEONE"

Byron

"Oh please don't do that again!" I exclaim, but the Lightning Wizard ignored me; he uses his senses again.

"The feeling is stronger than the usual." He says, turning left to right and vise versa

I lean my back on the railings and place my arms on the railings. "You're wasting your time, you know." He ignores me and continues to turn his head around. I try to catch his attention "Do you really think that I am the Destiny Who-"I cut when his eyes jerk and his face turns to a shock. I follow his eye direction and a violet fireball whizzes and aims at us. I can't move or escape from my position as the ball comes nearer and nearer…

Inches before we could have ended up being killed, "Watch out!" the wizard forcedly pushes me to the side and our bodies knock out to the ground. I block my head with my arm as the energy ball explodes on our earlier position.

As the dust fades away, we are shock to gaze a floating and mysterious hooded man. I can't distinguish his upper face because it is shadowed. He is heavily armored, holds a huge black sword and violet aura is swirling around him.

"Who is he?" I ask.

"I don't know." The wizard says "but that sword, it's the Sword of Darkness!"

"I see you recognized my sword." The hooded man slides his sword "I am Darkus Leone."

"Darkus Leone?" the wizard gasps. "Darkus Leone of the Neone Ordaseille? You must be working for The One now and you have changed since we first met."

"Of course," he says "After the Wizard King died, I thought it was all over for me but then I realize it was not!" he quickly waved his sword, violet lightning flashes out of the tip of the sword and it forms a group of violet aura henchmen that appeared behind him.

"I'll handle Darkus Leone!" the wizard commands "You deal with his henchmen."

"What?" There are so many questions that I like to ask the Lightning Wizard; about Darkus Leone and their past, but I think it's not a good time to ask now.

"Get them!" The Leone commanded and his henchmen charged at us in deadly speed.

The Lightning Wizard calls upon the lightning and strikes his henchmen. Most of them turn into magic dust but some miss the flash of lightning and continues to charge.

"Do something Salvatore!" He shouts as he tries to fend them off with his other abilities.

"Oh! Yeah—okay" I stutter and blast my magic to them black fireballs came out from my fists and blasts five out of their party. The Lightning Wizard leaps out off the balcony and charges his lightning at Darkus Leone and both fight on hand to hand and magic to magic combat.

The henchmen stop charging instead they blast with their violet auras at me. I do parkours and miss their blasts. I shoot dark water like a water gun, but ten times the power than a normal one. They ended being blasted backwards and soaked in water. I kicked my right foot in the air and dark magic flashes out of it and I shoot another using my other foot in the air as my right foot lands on the ground.

After the last henchmen down, I thought it was all over. It isn't.

I look down below the balcony and the henchmen charge the Lightning Wizard, who is still fighting the Leone.

"HAAAAAAAAAAA!" I jump out off the balcony and positioned my fists downwards. "Leave them off!" I shout as I land, I thrust my hands to the ground and I cause seismic waves and earthquake. The Earth rumbles as the ground turns into debris and dark aura rays in its ridges. The debris shoot to the air and hit the henchmen and one by one, they fall to the ground. The dark aura rays blind everyone, including me, and as it continues, it blinds us even more. Then after mere seconds, it was gone. I open my eyes and pull my arms hands off the ground.

The environment is still unclear because of the fogginess. I witness one henchman, turn into ashes and all was left of him were his bones. I found other bones lying on the ground too. Then I gaze the ground cracks that I made; it's a disaster. It's like an earthquake that really happened here.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, the Lightning Wizard, flies to me, knocks me out and we both land on the ground. I sit up from the fall and I look the wizard, head to toe. He's badly hurt. Dirt, scratches and wounds are almost found on every part of his body.

"What happened?" I ask him.

"I'm out." He says.

"Out of what?"

"Out of M,"

"M?"

"I-I can't fight him because I'm out of M. M i-is another word for m-magic or mojo." He explains. "A-and I f-forgot to tell you that we, wizards and w-witches, c-can run out of m-magic. I m-must have used up all the magic e-energy that is left here."

"What?!" I hoarsely reply.

Then a familiar female voice comes out. A silhouette of the Darkus Leone appears on the fog. "You may have defeated all my henchmen, but you can't defeat me!"

"H-his Sword of D-darkness only creates violet ne-necromancy powers; unlike the other ne-necromancers w-who only create black o-ones…." he whispers and trying to explain to me even if he's injured. "I-I don't think D-Darkus L-Leone is a man."

"I know," I say suspiciously "I recognize his—I mean 'her' voice." I look at the silhouette, I stand up and begin to fight him—I mean 'her'. I prepare to fight her as raise my fists; one on the shoulder level and the other, on the head level as I cautiously walk to him-I mean 'her'.

"D-defending yourself u-using your fists against a s-sword?" The wizard asks sarcastically. I look behind him and smile.

"Don't worry. I get it." I say to him in my mind. A ball of light shoots out from my locket and it forms to the Salvatore Staff.

I stop and confronted the silhouette of the Leone. "Surprisingly, you found me in this place."

The fog begins to fade slowly and I continue "You are a necromancer, but not an ordinary necromancer. Unlike others, you spit violet necromancy powers than black. From the start, I really find you suspicious about it, but I never told anyone. I observe you cautiously."

The silhouette fades, but the fog is still there. Her hood does not cover head anymore "You murdered my parents and you adopted my sister and I, because you can't bear children."

"Am I right Aunt Veronica?" The fog is now gone and I can glance that familiar face that had betrayed me for years.

"Or should I say….. Mom."
