Suddenly, the guard who had locked the door felt a sharp, piercing pain in his chest. His eyes widened in shock as he looked down to see a sword protruding from his chest. Blood began to bubble up from his mouth, and he felt the warm trickle of blood sliding down the blade.
The guards who witnessed Michael appear behind their comrade were stunned, their reactions a mix of horror and disbelief.
"He's behind you!" one guard shouted, his voice tinged with terror.
"Impossible! How did he...?" another guard stammered, unable to comprehend the situation.
"He wasn't in the cage? It was a trick!" a third guard exclaimed, realization dawning on his face.
The room erupted into chaos as the guards gasped in shock and panic, seeing that Michael was not inside the cage. Some of them were still grappling with the fact that the figure they thought they had captured was nothing but a hollow armor.
