The Guardians (Part Two)

This time, his transformation was in the Second Stage, as he needed the extra speed to reach the Tower. Just as he neared the Tower, he heard a scream. "Cassandra!", he thought as he moved in instinct. He sensed something around him, and he moved quickly.

He moved towards the direction he heard the voice. In mere minutes, he reached the place. He transformed his hands into blades, and he cut everyone he saw. She had a gaping hole in her gut, and was bleeding profusely. Michael looked at her and his eyes went red. "Cassandra!", he screamed as he ran towards her.

She turned her head towards him, and smiled. "It's okay. You know I can heal faster than normal", she said as he reached near her. Her smile was beautiful, even in the face of death. Michael knelt by her, and he saw the hole closing slowly. He bit his lip, and blood began to flow.
