Leah struggled for breath.

She knew she should run away, but after she had been thrown aside by the black smoke, her legs wouldnt seem to work properly. Backed up against the wall, she reached with difficulty to pick up a sharp stone that had broken on the floor. Cerdina smiled and vomited up more dark blood.

“Im going to kill you, too…” she muttered.

The distance between them was shrinking and shrinking. Leahs grip on the stone was slippery with sweat, an insignificant weapon in the face of Cerdinas might. But Leah held onto it with all her strength.

“Doesnt it seem fair?” Leah asked.

Cerdina frowned.

“You killed my family. You stole everything from me…”

Leah had lost both her parents. She had lost her right to the throne.

“So I paid you back the same way.”

Cerdina smiled at the bold words.

“Shut up,” she said, extending a bloody hand toward Leah. Her face was empty and expressionless. “I have no interest in your final words.”

But Leahs eyes shifted away from Cerdina, past her to the person that she had anxiously been awaiting. He had arrived.

She had known he would come just in time. Even though they hadnt planned this beforehand, she knew it, because Ishakan would always save her when she was in trouble.

His golden eyes glittered. His dark red sword stabbed into Cerdina from behind, before that bloody hand could touch Leah. Oddly, the blade of the sword did not punch out through her other side. It disappeared as if it had melted as soon as it came in contact with her body.
