sure.” Heiro said.
    “What? You could have gotten our asses killed.” Zander said scolding him.
    “Hey now let’s just savor the victory, were alive and he’s charco al.” Heiro said. They both had begun to laugh, thanks to Heiro’s quick thinking they were alive and Zander was grateful to him. Maybe he wasn’t as bad as he had thought he was in the beginning. Sometimes certain situations bring a person’s true self to the surface, and that’s exactly what Zander had hoped for Vallus.

 
     
     
     
    Chapter VI I
    Mysterious Stranger
                 
    Vallus sat under an old oak t ree in the middle of the forest; he had been there for days planning his next move. The battle with his father had been a close call; he hadn’t been ready to face him just yet. He needed to learn to control his newfound powers first. His father had been poisoning everyone’s mind all along; they were hypocrites for using magick while everyone else feared the mystics and wanted them eliminated. It was his goal to bring peace to the world, and he wanted it all for himself. He never did agree with the way his father governed his people and one day he knew he would put an end to it all.
    Suddenly a figure appeared before him, Vallus recognized him as the man from the hospital. “You again? What do you want?” Vallus asked.
    “Weren’t you ever taught any manners?” the man asked.
    “I don’t make it a point in my daily schedule to make small talk with mysterious strangers.” Vallus said.
    “I guess you’re right, forgive me for not introducing myself before. My name is Raphael.” He said taking off his shroud. He wore a sharp suit and had black slicked back hair, and also had a white mask that covered half of his face.
    “Are you someone’s butler? Bec ause your certainly dressed the part.” Vallus asked.
    “I am simply a messenger, who has come to make sure your task is uninterrupted.” Raphael said.
    “Okay then explain to me why you sent me away when you told me to bring you the blades. I could have taken it from him?” Vallus asked.
    “The boy is following you, you can lead him to the shrine and finish him o ff and take the weapon from him there.” Raphael explained. An ingenious plan no less, Vallus had known that Zander would follow him; that part wasn’t hard to figure out.
    “So I guess he is trying to bri ng me back home. Who is accompanying him?” Vallus asked.
    “ He is traveling with that girl Kerra, and the mystic prisoner Heiro.” Raphael said.
    “So he brought along some extra muscle, it won’t do him any good. Vallus said smirking.
    “ There is some more information I’ve gathered, apparently it turns out Zander is a mystic and Heiro has been training him.” He said.
    Vallus stood up and pack ed ebony on his back, “Well someone has certainly been busy, so explain to me why you need the swords.” Vallus demanded.
    This didn’t surprise Raphael that Vallus had been curious as to what he had in store for the swords; he wasn’t one for ignoring the small details. “I need them for a ritual to revive my master Diaboro, the demon king.” Raphael explained.
    “Why would I want to help y ou revive some ancient demon?” Vallus asked.
    “You want to rule this world don’t you? My master can make that happen for you, you can have anything you wish.” Raphael said. Thi s did peak Vallus’ interest, he did want to rule over all of V’nairia.
    “So how do yo u propose we slow them down?” Vallus asked.
    “Well I had a plan but it fell through . They had defeated the Iron Claw Bandits and their leader Jacko.” Raphael said.
    “Well think of something else, I need to get to that shrine.” Vallus said.
    Raphael knew about the Supreme Judge sending the bounty hunters after them and he would use this information to his advantage, but for now he said nothing about it. “As you wish, Lord Vallus.” He said and disappeared.
    Soon V allus would have the sword from Zander, and revive
