her eyes and Demetri embraced her. She gripped his shirt tightly.
AIt was so sad. I feel sad for Gail, even though he's a demon angel now,A she whispered as she cried on his chest.

Demetri stroked her hair and she calmed down. She looked at him and he smiled.
ALet=s go get Gail and save Selene,A she said smiling.
He nodded and they broke through the wall. Demons, angels and humans were in front of them, swords at their sides.
AWhat now?A Sol asked as she stood back to back with Demetri.
Demetri growled as he gripped his chest and Sol looked at him worried. He was panting hard and Sol tightened her grip on her sword.
AHe=s hurting her.... that bastard is hurting my girl!A he growled angrily.
Sol charged at the men. Demetri snapped and killed all the demons, angel and humans on his side. Sol, gasped and ran after Demetri, but he was too fast for her. She was way behind and tried to catch up with him as she ran harder.
He growled as his wings came out. Hers did as well and she flew after him, embracing him. He stopped as his eyes widened a little and his aura dimmed down a little.
ACalm down Demetri! You won=t be able to save Selene if you=re pissed off. Don't lose your head!@ She pleaded, shaking her head.
He calmed down and sighed as his bangs went over his eyes. She looked at him in worry.
AI know,A he said calmly as memories of Selene rushed through his head and his grip on his sword tightened. AI know,A he said softer.
He grunted and hissed as he gripped his stomach. Demetri=s eyes glowed darker and his aura surrounded him as she gasped.
AHe's is hurting her again! THAT=S IT!@ He shouted, anger taking over as he growled.
He picked up Sol on his back and rushed down the halls, turning left and right. Sol looked at him and gripped his shoulders.
ADo you know where you=re going?!@ She shouted as the wind brushed against her.
A pulse went through Demetri and he grunted as he grabbed his shoulder growling. Sol gasped and wrapped her arms around his neck.
@If that bastard hurts my Selene again, I=ll break every bone in his damn body,A he growled inhuman as his eyes glowed.
Sol looked angry too and kissed his cheek and he gasped as he went back to normal.
ACalm down,A she said gently.

He nodded and ran faster through the halls. Selene screamed as Gail bit into her neck and then almost fainted. Gail withdrew his teeth and she panted.
AWhen I bite you on your stomach and shoulder, it>s to punish you for not obeying me. Now go and get your guards ready!A he said.
She nodded and got up as her wounds started to heal. She turned around and grabbed Pandora=s Box as Gail went to his knees. She smirked at him and he growled at her.
AGail this is punishment, just like when you bit me,A she said and ran off.
Demetri stopped at a door and Sol got off. Their swords glowed and growled as they both smirked. The door opened and they got ready. In front of them was Gail, smirking. Demetri growled angrily and his aura grew.
@GAIL, WHERE THE HELL IS SELENE!@ Demetri shouted, pissed off as his aura went around him more.
Gail grunted as a sword slammed him into the wall. Shin was standing in front of them as Demetri and Sol gasped.
AGo and save Selene, Demetri!@ Shin shouted as he smiled at Demetri.
Demetri nodded and ran into the room and up some stairs panting. Sol helped Shin fight Gail as Gail fought back. Demetri saw Selene in front of twenty guards, her sword out and her bra on.
ASelene!@ Demetri shouted as he ran toward her and took out his sword.
He stopped in front of her and glared at the guards. Selene stopped the lecture, turned toward Demetri and he gasped as his eyes widened. Her face had marks on it and they were glowing, her dragon tattoo was glowing too.
ASelene,A he whispered in a sad and angry tone.
He grunted as he blocked her attack. She kept striking again and again and he kept blocking as he moved back.
ASelene, snap out of it!@ He shouted angrily as he pushed her back.
She caught herself and blocked his attack. He kept attacking and she kept blocking as sparks flew. She pushed him away panting hard as he panted hard too. He held out his sword to the left, it wrapped its straps around his arm tightly as his aura burst from his body.
It was wild, huge, and glowing as his eyes started to glow. The water around the room swirled fast around him as it splashed against them both.

She sighed and held out her sword. It stabbed needles in her arm and she yelped as it wrapped a black aura around her arm, easing the pain. He gasped as her aura turned black, out of control and angry. She growled as her wings came out, black straps on them and the ground broke under her feet as darkness went around the water.
ADemetri, it=s time to end this. I=ll make you understand why I became like this, to save you!@ She shouted and rushed at him.
He gasped and blocked it as he was pushed back. Suddenly black dragons came out of the darkness as he turned around. He cut them away and screamed as Selene=s sword cut into his arm.
@I=m doing this to protect you, so you and I can live peacefully without anything to hurt us! Don=t you understand that!A she shouted angrily as her eyes glowed lightly.
He growled at her as he pushed her back and charged at her. Their swords clashed against each other as sparks flew. They were in a deadlock on the ground and their swords grinded against one another.
ASelene, don=t let the darkness control you. You know this isn=t right! STOP IT!@ He shouted as he attacked her again and again.
She grinned, disappeared and then reappeared behind him. He spun around and blocked her sword as she smiled sadly.
ADemetri you don=t understand, even when I did explain it. I want us to create a better world, with no fighting in it,A she said, putting her hand on his cheek.
He brushed it away and struck the sword out of her hands. She growled at him and then gasped as he pointed the sword at her chest angrily.
ASelene, come back.... come back home, to me... or I=ll kill you with my own hands,A he said, tears in his eyes.
She looked away as he lowered his sword. She smirked and uncovered Pandora=s Box in one move. He gasped and went to his knees in pain, feeling his strength leave his body. She got up as she grabbed her sword and walked back to Demetri.
He growled and grabbed his sword, blocking hers as it hit as he grew weaker by the second. She made her sword disappear and he swung as his eyes widened. She caught it as it disappeared and smirked.
AYou can=t kill me Demetri, you know that,A she said, kneeling in front of him.
He looked away from her as his hands clenched in anger. She embraced him and he pushed her away angrily, knowing what she said was true.

AYou chose darkness. I will kill you if I have to!A he shouted, anger taking over at how Gail was using her.
She smiled as she nodded and took off her necklace, throwing it at his feet. He gasped and looked at her in shock. He couldn=t believe that she threw away the necklace he had given her.
AWith no more ties to remind me of you, I=ll get stronger and come back when I do. Darkness is all I have now,A she said and started to walk away.
He grabbed her arm and she looked at him sadly. He was panting and sweating hard as he tried to fight to stay conscious.
AI will kill you Selene, if it=s the only way to save you, but I=ll look for another way.A he said as he looked at her, almost fainting.
She smiled as she knelt down and kissed him. He gasped as his eyes widened as she closed her eyes.
ASelene, will you ever come back? Come back to your home and to me?@ He thought as he closed his eyes and kissed back.
She parted from him and the darkness disappeared as the water did too. She smiled and ran down the stairs to help Gail. Demetri looked after her and fainted from the blood loss. He was dreaming of the day when he was would get her back from Gail.
An hour passed and Sol found him. She gasped and ran toward him. ADemetri!@ She shouted, helping him to his feet.
He looked sad and angry as his eyes closed a little. Sol looked at him sadly, knowing that Selene had gotten away again.
ASelene... she chose darkness,A he said, tired and sad.
Sol looked at him and they went to an inn. Shin was already there resting and Sol led him to a bed. Sol set Demetri on a bed and he fell asleep as she did too.
ASelene, I=ll save you from the darkness that has you. I swear on my life,A he thought as he fell asleep.


Chapter 8

Powers, Determination and Wills


A year passed after that day and Demetri, Shin, and Sol were walking on a beach. There was a temple on top of a hill that was five miles ahead.
AWe should stop here for the night,A Shin said and sat down.
Sol did too and they started a fire as they ate. Sol shivered as the wind started blowing across them gently. Sol looked at Demetri and he was on a cliff a few feet away as he stared the moon, sword by his side.
AI=m worried about him Shin,A she said in worry.
Shin looked at her sadly and then Demetri as she sighed. Sol fingered a necklace in her hands slowly.
AHe hasn=t been himself since that day. He=s so distant that I can=t reach him anymore,A she said as she curled into a ball and put her head on her knees.
Shin touched her shoulder and she looked at him as he smiled.
AHe=ll be alight. He has gotten a lot stronger. Don=t worry so much about it,A he said smiling warmly.
She looked at Demetri and he had his sword on his shoulder as he clutched it. She smiled and looked at Shin as he smiled back.
AYou=re right, he will,A she said as they both looked at the sky.
They both went to sleep
