Hey so couldn't sleep and just decided to write again. Hope you guys like it and let me know what you think. Please I need a motive to keep doing this.

Eredos POV

Crap the beast is a Pyredaemos. A huge beast had a large mask with a smaller one on its forehead. It was covered in armor with flames coming out of the holes. A giant cannon was attached to its back. It was about the size of two or three beastwains. How did that thing get inside?! The only way it could get in the main would be from a huge caravan. The circus! I knew something felt odd about them. The nobles were frighten by the sight of the beast. But I think they should be scarred because of the huge black armored army running in. Why are they here? This was too soon. I have to go protect the princess and the king!

Leonard POV

What the hell is going on?! Everyone is just running out of here. Wait where is Eredos? I turned to Yulie to see if she knows.

"Yulie! Where is Eredos? We have to get out of here!" I yelled

"I don't know! We can't search for him now!" she replied.

"We can't leave him behind! Especially when the king and princess are here! C'mon let's go!"

"Damn it Leonard! Alright let's just hurry!"

We dropped our cake and hurried toward the king. Eredos, don't do anything stupid. The whole place was like a warzone. Knights from both sides fall every second. Who the hell is attacking us? This obviously isn't the Farians. They would never wear this kind of armor. I see some of our forces retreating. There were more deaths on our side than our enemies.

"Yulie we need to help the guards!" I yelled

"But what about Eredos?" she replied

"The guy can take care of himself! If we don't do anything, we're gonna die!" I said with a serious tone

"No! Stand your ground! Your king and castle needs you!" someone yelled in the distance.

"C'mon lets go!" I yelled as I ran with my sword and shield.

"Damn it Leonard!" Yulie yelled as she got her bow ready.

Cisna POV

The castle is collapsing and is on fire. Why is this happening now? It's just like the day mother died. Would this mean my death or my father's? Please gods don't let this fate come upon us. I felt someone grab my arm. My father pulled me with him.

"Cisna! Quickly, this way!" he yelled

I followed without a word and kept my head down. We headed up the stairs as fast as we could. Halfway up, he suddenly stopped moving. I look up to see a man in black armor walking down the steps. His mask had red eyes and horns on both sides. He also wore a dark purple cape and wielded a black curved sword. I'm scarred of what might come.

"How did you…" my father said as he put himself between me and the black knight. I couldn't see much since he was blocking the way. I felt my father's hand letting go. I heard the sound of metal going through a body. The sound came from my father as the black sword came into his body and out of his back. I hear him coughing and watched as he fell when the sword came out.

"Father…" I said quietly

I went down to my knees to get closer to my father. My eyes started to tear up.

"No!" I cried out, "Father, please! Please don't die!"

I turned his body so I can see his face. He should be in pain, but he's smiling as he looks at me.

"Ah, Cisna…At last…I hear your voice again…How I have missed, missed the sound of it…" My father said weakly.

"Father!" I cried out again

"Go…You must. My…beautiful daughter…" He said as he takes his last breath.

"No. I won't leave you! I don't want to be alone!" I cried out as I hold on to my father's lifeless body. "Please…Father…"

I yelled and cried as loud as I could. I lost my mother when I was young and now I've lost my father. I'm alone now. My parents are gone just trying to protect me. And they both died on my birthday. I can hear the knight come closer to me. Is this my end? I shut my eyes so I won't see what happens. Out of nowhere I felt a gust of wind go past me and a loud clang of steel. I look up to see a boy around my age in black clothing with black hair come right in front of me. The boy's black sword collided with the knight's. The boy was able to push the knight against the side of the wall and continued to press his sword onto the knight's.

"You're not taking another life today!" the boy yells as he punched the knight in the helmet, leaving him on the floor.

"Princess! This way!" he yelled as he grabs my hand and pulls me with him. We ran down the stairs to avoid the knight. Halfway down I looked back and tried to go back up.

"Father!" I yelled as I try to pull away.

The boy pulled me closer to him instead "Come on! We have to go, or they'll kill you!"

"B-but…My father!" I said as I look back once more. He didn't let go of his grip and continue to pull me along. I couldn't look up my eyes were red and tears continued to go down my face. We stopped for a second but I still didn't look up.

"Quick, this way!" He yelled. But once again we stopped.

I was able to see what was going on.. Left to right, people were dying. Men slaughtered each other. I've never seen a sight like this.

"This way" the boy yelled as we started to run again.

The whole hall was burning. It made it harder for both of us to breathe in. We ran to the side where it was mostly empty, except for all the fires. I tripped on my dress and fell to the ground the boy went down on one knee and grabbed me by my shoulders. He lifted my head up and I can clearly see his face. He was young seems to be the same age as me. He had red eyes. They look like precious gems. He brought his left hand up to my face and wiped away my tears.

"Come on. I won't let them get you. I promise you." He said in a serious tone.

"Who are you?" I asked him

"My name is Eredos" He replied

"Why did you…?"

"Well…I care about you and wanted to protect you." He said as he looked away for a second. I started to blush from thinking about what he said. Was he saying that he likes me?

"What?"

Eredos POV

Oh, crap! I said something stupid didn't i?

Cisna POV

He let go of my shoulders and moved back a little. I think I also saw him blush as well. "Uh…wait…I mean that we all do…care about you…I mean. Your kingdom loves and needs you."

He got up and brought his hand down to help me up. I accepted and continued to look into his eyes.

We stared at each other until we heard a loud noise coming from the other side. We see a fiery monster coming out of the hall. Knights ran in front of us, but they don't seem to notice us as well,

"You there! Are you survivors? " said a voice from the back.

Eredos and I turned to see where it came from. There was an old man right by a door. He was dressed in leather armor and also had a green shirt and a green cape.

"This way! To the cellars!" The old man yelled

"This way!" Eredos said as he grabbed my hand again.

We ran toward the cellar as fast as we could. Once inside the door was closed shut
