Old Hatreds II

"Lionheart!"

"Lionheart!"

"I am... not..."

"Well, what do we have here?"

A woman, a succubus, appears to be in front of Lionheart that was held in chains.

"Who... who are you?" Lionheart groggily asked.

The succubus laughed. "Just witnessed how naive this warrior is." She touches Lionheart's face, licks it, and whispers: "A very fine young man! After the catalyst, as clean as it is. No doubt I did not sense the scourge in you." The succubus then takes out a dagger and shows it to Lionheart. "Your destiny awaits!" In a sudden, demon orcs arrived dragging a woman beaten black-and-blue and excruciating. He then realizes that the woman was Vexana. Lionheart's face filled with horror and fear. He couldn't move his body. "This woman is already half-dead." The succubus then proceeds to unlock the chains on Lionheart's hands. Lionheart fell into the ground, could do nothing but rather watch his queen suffer in pain. The dagger dropped in front of him. "You cannot undo what has been written. Grasp the fulfillment of your destiny, young man! Kill this woman and you'll seek enlightenment!" Grinned the succubus. "I don't abide something that is of the evil!" Lionheart yelled. The succubus laughed. "Life itself is evil, so as a person who had chosen by destiny is more evil. Destiny is evil. Letting us suffer with the torment of ignorance and acceptance without the consideration of the heart. The only way to be atoned is to fulfill that destiny, good or bad, in someone's destiny, nothing really matters. Just do as I say and you'll receive atonement and enlightenment." The succubus then took the dagger and handed it to Lionheart. "Kill that woman now if you want to be free from your oblivion." "I don't come by in the presence of evil... I don't... damn you!" Lionheart screamed in chaos. "DO IT, NOW!" Screamed the Succubus. "I DON'T STAND IN THE PRESENCE OF EVIL!" Lionheart took the dagger and thrusted on the Succubus. Then a mysterious energy took over Lionheart's body. The dagger was halfway on the Succubus' chest and then he could not move his arm. "What is happening?!!". Then a sudden crack. Lionheart yelled in pain as his arm twists brutally and the dagger in his hand aim towards Vexana. "No!!! Arrgghh!!!" Then the mysterious energy took over the dagger and it flew out of Lionheart's hand right on to Vexana's heart. Vexana's blood gushing on her mouth and then falls into the ground. A demon orc walked towards Lionheart and smashed his back with a hammer. The intense force lodged towards Lionheart's arm, dismembering it. "I already told you." The Succubus grinned. Lionheart on the ground unconscious while soaked by his own blood. "I am... not..." his eyes blurry watching the surroundings as explosion and chaos played the entire scene. He saw the Succubus running away with her subordinates while being chased by a group of unknown men cloaked in violet robes. Vague as this is his last scene. Witnessing the day of his reckoning. Chaos and torment. "Evil..." he dies.
