I looked at the Bandit with a stare that seemed to shock him. I was full of rage, hate, confusion, and love. That’s right I said love. I didn’t know until now but I love her. I looked back to the cages and gave her a look that told her it was going to be okay.

I blocked the Bandit’s attack with my shield and pushed him back. Then I used Power Strike to try to slice him but I missed. With his Haste he was untouchable. He quickly disappeared. I looked around keeping my guard up. He jumped behind me and shoved his Kandine dagger into my back.

“AHHHHHHHH” I screamed in pain
“You are not leaving alive this time boy!” the bandit said
“Threaten!” I whimpered in pain

The large shadow creature came out of me again and scared the Bandit. He took out the dagger and I looked my stomach. Luckily the weapon didn’t go through me completely. I looked ahead and saw Jeremy having a grin on his face as if he was loving to watch me die. I turned around and threw my sword into the Bandit’s arm then I quickly walked over, took it out, and used Power Strike at his chest. The Bandit fell to the floor with his eyes wide open. As I turned around I heard Angela scream “Jason! Look out!” It was too late. Jeremy had thrown several Tobis into my chest. I was still standing trying to stay awake. Jeremy then walked over to me and picked me up by the throat.

“Why won’t you die!” he asked
I couldn’t speak; I was grinding my teeth because the pain was so intense.
“I am going to say this one more time, Die Jason!”

He used haste and punched me with his claw so fast it broke through my armor and hit me in the gut. He let go of me and I fell to the floor. He laughed, as he looked at me crawl to Angela’s cage. I put my hand through the bars and held Angela’s hand. We both started crying our eyes out.

“A-Angela, if I die, I want you to know that I love you.”
“Jason, I kissed you in Ellinia because I love you too. But now that we both know we love each other why do you have to go!” she cried squeezing my hand
“I…”

I was interrupted, I looked back and saw a Cleric holding a Thorns. He quickly started shooting Holy Arrows at Jeremy. Jeremy was not prepared and had no stars left. As a last resort he ran. The Cleric walked over to me and kneeled down. He quickly healed my wounds. I got up and gave him a hug.

“Dude! I can’t believe it! Ron I thought you were on vacation in Orbis!”
“Well I decided to come back and see how my old buddy was doin. Good thing I came back too, I just saved your butt!” he said smiling
“Well it’s good to have ya back Ron!”
“Ummmm hello? Remember me? I am locked in a cage here!” Angela laughed
“Oh right sorry.”

I used Slash Blast and all the bars broke off. Angela jumped out and hugged me hard. I looked over to Ron as I returned her hug and he was about to burst out laughing.
“Shut up dude!” I snapped at him
Then he fell to the floor and started laughing like crazy

I released Angela and we walk out of the dungeon holding hands. I could still see Ron trying to hold in his laugh as we walked.
