Beginning of war

Aaron flew as far as he could, but soon he couldn't keep flying and fell unconscious mid-air. Then a shadow leaped into the air and caught him.

The person landed on the ground with Aaron. It was Drake.

"When Master asked me to watch over his friend, I didn't think anything would really happen to him, but it seems I was wrong," Drake said.

Silva had given Drake a job to do while the others took down Dark Blade. Silva had discovered that Aaron would be meeting with his father today, so he decided to send Drake for safety.

Drake had watched the whole thing. He would have stepped in and helped, but he saw how fiercely Aaron resisted, so he decided to let Aaron fight.

He would only step in if Aaron was about to be killed.

He took Aaron through a portal and returned to the labyrinth. When he arrived, the others were all out doing what they had been asked to do to take down the Dark Blade.
