"Are you alright?" Cassandra asked Ivo, he didn't seem comfortable.
"I'm fine." he answered plainly as he stood up and left. As a matter of speaking, he wasn't feeling very comfortable. There is a twilight tonight, and during every twilight Ivo's fire power are at it's peek. He can burn down an entire kingdom during the twilight.
He walked outside of the castle,he could feel his body heating up - he felt powerful, dangerously powerful.
"I didn't expect to see you here" he heard a very familiar voice say. He turned only to see the second prince.
"Me neither" Ivo told him.
Raphael walked closer to him, he can smell smoke. "Your clothes are burning" he pointed out.
Ivo started down at his black attire. Smoke was coming out of his clothes. He sighed, "I don't see how that's your problem" he said.
"Not every one is against you, Ivo" Raf told him.
"Speak for yourself" Ivo replied. "Are you bored with your senseless lovers, already?" he asked.
Raphael didn't see the need to reply him, because somehow he was right, he came out here to have some breathing space.
**************************
The fall was merciless, they kept tumbling, and tossing in the hard ground. Until finally they stopped.
They all grimaced, groaning in pain as they lay at the ground.
"Ah, I think my arm is broken" Theo informed, slowly getting up.
Kal went to him, he held him by the hand. And without giving him a heads up, he pushed back the broken bone into it's right position.
"Ouch! Kal, that really hurt" he said.
"Stop whining" Kal told him, "Get up, Damien" he said, and Damian started to rise to his feet.
"I need more explanation about that death being" Theo said as they started walking.
"According to the book of all names. It's name is Malvarik - a spirit being that feeds on the soul of gods and goddesses"
"Why?" Damien asked.
"Malvarik's aim is to be god-like. So the more it feeds the more powerful and god-like it becomes. How many souls has it feed on?" he asked.
"In counting, fifteen" Theo answered.
"Charming" Kal sarcastically said.
"Where are we going?" Damien asked.
"We need to lure it out of the castle" Kal answered.
"And how are you sure that it will follow us" Theo asked.
"Because it wants Damien" Kal said.
"Me? Why does it want me?"
"It wants you dead, it wants to kill you." Kal informed, "You are the god of death, killing you would be like killing hundred gods"
"Thereby, achieving it's aim" Theo said.
"Precisely" Kal added. "But we wouldn't let that happen, we need a vast and open place"
"You have a plan?" Theo asked.
"Yes, we need to get to the turret" Kal informed.
But then Damien stopped, he touched the back of his neck and said, "I can feel it. It's close."
"Then we need to walk faster" Kal advised as he held out his hand, that Damian took.
Just to take the left turn that leads to the turret, they heard voices - familiar voices. They looked closer, and saw Raphael and Ivo. What a weird scene that was, seeing the two of them.
They could already feel the rushing air that was fast approaching - the Malvarik was very close.
Immediately Kal and Theo rushed to their brothers, and dragged them to a covered wall, where they hid.
"What do you think you are doing? Let go of me" Ivo asked as he shoved Theo's hands away.
"Stay quiet" Kal said.
"Why are we hiding?" Raphael asked confused.
"The Malvarik is already here" Damien said.
"The what?" Raf asked.
"This is nonesense" Ivo blurted out as he stood up.
"Ivo, don't..." Kal said, but it was already too late as he has walked out of their hiding place.
They all followed him out.
"What sort of game is this, there is nothing here" Ivo said, staring at his brothers for an explanation.
"Kal, what's going on?" Raf asked, cause he too couldn't see anything thing. But the three of them could see the Malvarik approaching them.
"What are you staring at?" Raphael asked again.
Damien came in the center and held their hands. Immediately the rushing feeling came, and they started to see the Malvarik.
"What in god's name is that?" Raphael asked staring fixedly at the Malvarik.
"Is this the reason why we are hiding?" Ivo asked looking at Kal. "This hideous monster, that can be easily killed" he added.
"Ivo, stop." Kal said, "We can't fight it"
"Then what do we do, stand here?" Ivo asked clearly with irritation.
"For now, we run" Kal informed.
"What?" Ivo asked angrily.
"Yes, unless you want to die. Run!" he dashed off immediately with Damien, and Theo followed. Raphael looked at approaching Malvarik. "No," he said as he ran off too.
Ivo frowned, "Damn it!" then he ran off too, following his brothers. He knew that Kal was not the type to utter nonsense, if he says that they should run, for now, then they will run.
