Chapter 5 – The Power Of Mercy

Arthur got in the bathroom and he started to run a bath. He put oils and roses in it and everything because he felt bad because he had thought that he made Lilith feel bad. Lilith had just left the cottage and as the door had slammed behind her with the tears pouring down her face she went to sit and started to contemplate if what she was doing was correct. "Are you feeling sorry for yourself you little bitch? I have been here all your life but only was awoken when you needed me to get you out of the castle"(Dark Lilith) "No, no I never needed you"(Lilith) "Hahahahaha, you say that but because of me we were freed from that gloomy castle" (Dark Lilith) as Lilith starts to waver over Dark Lilith's words, she slowly starts to feel sleepy "That's it, fall asleep leave everything to me, when you wake up again everything will be sorted, just sleep and rest"(Dark Lilith) as Dark Lilith was speaking Lilith completely falls asleep unaware of the events that will soon unfold as she continues her slumber letting Dark Lilith have all the control "Finally the annoyance has fallen asleep, now its time to begin" (Dark Lilith) a small smirk appears on her face as she slowly begins to walk to the bath area.

As Arthur was enjoying his bath oblivious to the situation taking place outside the bath area. "I wonder if I offended Lilith by telling her about my past" (Arthur) as Arthur is enjoying his bath DL walks in the bath area, Arthur is shocked and surprised at the same. "May I join you"(DL) Arthur quickly covers his privates while in the bath. "Lilith why are you here"(Arthur) DL slowly approaches Arthur and stands closely to him and looks at him in the eyes "I asked, if I may join you"(DL) Arthur stares back at DL while silent, DL Continues to look into Arthur's eyes "You trusted me enough to show me your scars and tell me about you past I should do the same and trust you too" she takes off the mask that covers the left half of her face, Arthur is gobsmacked at what he sees and is left utterly speechless. DL starts to panic thinking Arthur is disgusted at what he sees, tears begin to form in her eyes as she slowly steps back."I Knew you would react like this"(DL)

He steps out the bath and moves towards her, her eyes are closed because she is utterly embarrassed and she opens them because she feels something pulling at her dress that she has on. She opens her eyes and sees Arthur standing in front of her busy pulling at her pink dress that she had on. He is staring at her right in her eyes. He looks at her body as the dress slips off her curves and sais "You are stunning, you think those scars are what make you ugly but its what shows how strong and beautiful you are". He then kisses her on the neck and she jumps up into him as her legs wrap around his waist as they begin to kiss intensely and patiently. He carries her into the bath and they make passionate love, they take the love making from the bathroom to the bed as they continue to have intercourse and Arthur feels happy and free for the first time ever in his life. As they are making love Lilith whispers into his ear the dark plague is busy spreading over to his body because she slowly starts to take control of him and in the corner Excalibur is glowing brighter than the son because it is trying to warn Arthur. They finish and fall she falls asleep in Arthurs arms and he starts to stroke her hair and just stares at her wounds she has on her face and he thinks how can she have something so hideous yet be so beautiful.

She wakes up and looks up at Arthur as asks, "Am I still son beautiful? Still as beautiful as you said just now, even if you're looking at the real me", "Yes you definitely are". Sais Arthur as his eyes start to have a purple glow about them and DL lays flat on his chest and gives a menacing and demented smile as she realizes that she has finally taken over him because she couldn't do so before because Excalibur was preventing her to control him. As they lay there they heard a commotion emanating from outside and a voice followed not so long after and it said, "Who dares enter my world of slumber, no one or nothing has been able to enter my resting place in centuries".

The ancient sounding voice disrupts their time together as Arthur wanted to enjoy Lilith a little bit more, "Dammit who is it"(Arthur), "I don't know"(DL), as Arthur gets up from the bed he pushes DL gently to the side, he slowly stands up "Wait for me I will be right back"(Arthur) he quickly puts on his pants and goes outside. As he gets outside he sees the one part of the world they are on just get covered by darkness and then he hears something laughing and he doesn't know where it this laughter is coming from. All of a sudden a unknown creature jumps out of the darkness and attacks him and just reacts on impulse and he blocks this creatures attack which also is busy wielding a sword. Arthur glances up and sees a terrifying creature, it has a lions face but the body of a man. This thing also has 3 huge eyes. One on its forehead and one on each shoulder. Arthur jumps back in fear and sais "What the hell are you?" "I am Myotis, keeper of this world with no time and you and your whore are trespassing in my world and I don't take to kindly to strange creatures".

Arthur just looks at this thing and is absolutely terrified and in so much shock and it feels like his heart is in his throat and Lilith walked out the door and even she was startled, this entity attacked Lilith just by swinging its sword and he cut her across her face as she fell through the cottage door because she couldn't hold Myotises power back, as she went falling back Arthur attacked it but all it did was block his attack and it looked like it didn't even break a sweat but for Arthur it took a lot out of him. This creature just blocked Arthur's attack with one arm, he then used the other arm and hit Arthur across the face and he went flying back.

Arthur had landed on against a tall and mighty tree and wondered where this tree had come from. He looked towards the cottage and saw Lilith step through with the mask she had on cut and severely damaged. He looked down because he realized that his nose felt a sting and he looked down and saw that his nose was bleeding, he slowly got up and wondered how was he supposed to beat something so powerful and then he remembered what he had done against that creature that looked like his mother and he remembered the extremely power move he did.

He slowly got up to his feet and gripped Excalibur tightly and held it in the air and shouted, "THIS IS THE POWER OF MERCY, I will banish you fiend and end your existence". There was a massive bright light from where Arthur was and an awesome armor and it formed all over his body and he felt an enormous boost of power and this armor had covered his whole body including his head. This armor was covered with purple lines at the parts it was connected to his body. It was gold and silver and had symbols all over it, There was a huge cross on the chest plate and what looked like roses that had covered the arms and legs that glowed as he got into his fighting stance.

He then leaped forwards and attacked this creature and an epic battle had started and this battle was extremely intense battle, this creature got the upper hand on Arthur because he had not a lot of fighting experience and had knocked Arthur down and he got back up and his head piece had been removed and he said " You will never defeat me". As he said this the head gear had covered his face again these beautiful wings had appeared and he flew and just started to slice this creature with such an emotionless anger and such hatred. He then flew close to Myotis who was covered in blood and slash wounds all over its body and he stabbed the sword full inside its body and as it was busy dying he saw himself and realized that he was being controlled Lilith and saw her world and he she was doing this for a reason. As this Myotis started to turn into dust, the world started to crumble and Lilith had appeared next to her and the beam of light had appeared again and they were sucked into it and disappeared. Lilith "Well done Arthur but we need more fighters if we want to win this war".
