So, I was asked to make a second part, and I did. This is from Croix's POV.

You remember that cursed day.

You remember the darkness taking hold of you. You struggled and tried to fight back. You remember her calling out for you, but you kept your distance, afraid that the darkness will take her too. You felt nothing but agony as you started losing control of your limbs.

You looked at her, and were met with red eyes that looked back at you with so much hurt that you could've sworn that she felt your pain.

You knew that thing would try to possess both of you, to plant seeds of darkness into your hearts, so instead of trying to break free, you decided to trap it inside of you, but your power had limits, so you did the only thing you could do.

You took your wand and pointed it at her. Her red eyes widened when she realized what you were about to do. She reached out for you, but you already cast the spell, sending her away, protecting her from the monster residing within you.

Everything faded to black after that.

The past few years have been a blur.

There were days where you were able to regain control, and you took the opportunity to find a way to free yourself and seal the monster for good, but he would take over quickly.

It was a never ending battle between both of you.

There were days where he would have complete control, but you were still able to see the things he did through your eyes. You have never thought you'd see such terrifying sights, or have blood stains all over your body, and smile coldly at the lifeless bodies beneath you.

You have been breaking for years as he turned you into a monster too. There were times where the darkness would start messing with your mind too, trying to make you end the battle.

Those were the times you thought of her.

Chariot.

The name would bring so much relief to your unfortunate soul.

You remember your first meeting, you were fascinated by her magic. As a child, you saw magic as nothing but fun, but when you started growing up, you were told that things weren't that way. You almost lost your love for it, until you met her.

That moment, you swore that you would never leave her side, and that you would help her spread happiness through magic. You both wanted to change the world, especially since magic started dying out due to the world changing.

You remember the days when you would have sleepovers, study together, laugh and cry together.

Your dream finally broke apart when you found out about her disappearance. You heard it in passing, and you couldn't believe your ears.

Chariot worked so hard to become who she was, to share happiness with others, to change the world for the better.

How did this happen?

Did you sacrifice yourself for nothing?

What happened to her?

Was she okay?

You heard him mocking you. You felt him enjoying your torment.

The last time you saw her, there was hurt in her eyes, and sometimes you wondered if she thought that you have betrayed her. You wanted to look for her, but you were too scared of losing control.

You thought about seeking Professor Woodward's advice, but going anywhere near the sorcerer's stone was a risky move, so you decided that you wouldn't do anything until you become powerful enough to limit his control over your body.

It took long years.

It took years of emotional and physical pain, years of self-loathing and regret.

You wanted to die.

You wished for death to free you, but not yet, not until you find a way to destroy him.

You knew that if you died, he'd break free, and he would spread darkness.

You had two goals in mind, the first one was to put an end to him, and the second was to find chariot.

You wanted to see her for one last time, even if she'd hate you, push you away, blame you for everything bad that happened, for all the destruction you left behind.

That would be more painful than everything you went through, but you would gladly accept it.

Ten years have passed, and you became capable of controlling your body for days, but he was still as strong as ever.

You became a teacher at Luna Nova, hoping that you could get answers there. You felt the nostalgia hit you as you looked at the place you spent your happiest years in.

Those days would never come back, and you knew that you wouldn't find happiness again, not with the guilt that has been killing you inside like a poison.

However, the guilt, and the years of suffering were nothing compared to what you saw at that academy.

Chariot was there.

Chariot the brightest girl you've ever known, the person who brought back your love for magic, the person whose memory kept you sane for the last ten years, stood right before you.

She stood before you, under disguise. Her hair was no longer red, and it wasn't short either. She wore a teacher's clothes, something so normal and unlike her. She always made sure to show off, to be exceptional, even though her clothes, and her costume as shiny chariot was the proof. She always shone brighter than everyone but at that moment, you couldn't see that light anymore.

It made you so angry, so heartbroken.

This wasn't what you wanted.

You wanted her to live, not to give up on what she loved.

But you hid those emotions, you couldn't let them show. You played a different role, a different personality that would fit a villain. You saw the mistrust in her eyes, and as much as it pained you, you needed her to be cautious towards you. You never knew when he would take over.

However, it didn't take long for him to take control.

You both fought fiercely, but neither of you could win. You have always been equal at power, but now, you were possessed by darkness, and you had so much power that you were sure that even if Chariot was at her prime, she wouldn't be able to touch you.

You watched as she counterattacked every spell he casted at her, and you watched her hair finally change back into its older color, a sign that she was using her full power. Everything around you has been destroyed due to the intensity of the fight, and you were both worn out. She was worn out from all the spells she casted, and you were worn out from trying to stop him.

You felt your power fading, and you couldn't do anything.

However, the moment you saw get hurt by one of the spells, something inside you snapped. Your body went immobile as you started taking over again, you could hear his voice filled with anger and venom. You didn't care about the pain you were feeling, because all that matter right now was to keep him from hurting her.

"Chariot please… put an end to me… put an end to us." You looked up to her, asking her…no, begging her to end it all, but she looked back at you, horrified by your request. She shook her head, as her eyes watered, but your mind was made up. You wanted it all to end, and she was the only one could do it, the only one who might be able to kill both you, and that monster.

Chariot did cast a spell, but instead of killing you, it separated you. You felt him being ripped out of your body, and it was so sudden as if your skin has been ripped off. You fell to your knees, shaking.

He has been in your body for so long, that you forgot what this freedom felt like, but this was not how things were supposed to happen.

Now he was free, and capable of doing everything.

You looked back at his dark from, and saw him casting something that you were sure would kill her. You pulled your wand, and used every bit left of your power to jump in front of her, shielding her, while casting her most powerful spell at him, making him disappear.

Now, you feel cold, and everything hurts. You can't breathe, you're struggling to breathe. Your chest feels so heavy, and you're trying to keep your eyes open.

The only comfort you could feel, is chariot's warmth. She's holding you in her arms, and you feel her tears falling on your cheeks.

She's begging you to stay, to not leave her again. She's asking you to live, and you know that you would anything for her, except for this. You can't survive this.

You smile at her, and touch her wet cheek.

You see the pain in her red eyes, and you know you're the cause of it.

There's so much you want to tell her.

I missed you.

There's so much you want to apologize for, but you find it hard to speak.

Your eyes close for a second, and when they open, you see a younger version of herself, you see the chariot who carried so much light inside. You see her smiling at you.

"…Chariot…" You say with your last breath.

Your world fades to darkness, but somehow, you can still her hear.

You hear a scream.

A scream of agony, of regret.

You hear her grieving.

Although everything is a blur, you hear a spell being cast.
