Friends Forever

Leaves fall from the tree which Kreel had created. All the leaves had fallen off, revealing just an empty tree with branches.

"Drache!" Ella shook Drache's body. Around her were Sylas, Ella and Nuki.

"Where... am I?" Drache sat up, he could feel a cooling sensation down his spine. "What was that dream?" Drache rubbed his eyes.

Ella looked like she had tears in her eyes as she picked Drache up. Drache tried to stand up but he couldn't feel his leg. He rolled his leg sleeve, revealing that his entire leg had completely gone black.

"That's a bad case of hypothermia..." Sylas knelt, placing both of his hands on Drache's leg. "[Incantesimo di guarigione]" A green aura emitted out of Sylas' hands, wrapping around the leg. Within a second the leg heals and returns to its original color.

"FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!" Vier screamed as the sound of blood gushing and bones being cracked could be heard by the rest of them.

"VIER!" Ella ran over to Vier, she nearly screams but she covers her mouth with her hand.

Vier repeatedly strikes Erik in the face, causing his jaw to dislocate and his eyes to be gouged out. His blue jeans are soaked in his blood, and so is his white shirt. Vier has an emotionless expression on his face.

"STOP!" Sylas jumps and grabs Vier by the back, pulling both of his arms back to stop him from hitting Erik. Erik is in critical condition, his abdomen had a massive gaping hole from Alexandra's arrow and his face was practically caved in from the beating he had received from Vier. "YOU'RE GONNA KILL HIM!"

"So what?" Vier stops, looking at Sylas, still with no emotion.

Erik seems like he's still alive, but barely. He's breathing heavily but Vier had completely crushed his throat and windpipe. He is minutes away from suffocating on his own blood.

"You're..." Erik tries to talk but he croaks up more blood.

Vier turns around to Erik.

"You're not any better than me if you kill me, you filthy murderer." Erik smiles smugly.

The sound of fists clashing against steel could be heard ringing through the steel interiors of the pipes.

Drache looks at Vier, confused. He is standing from afar but he could tell that Erik was no more, he was dead. He looks behind and sees the body of Kreel laying emotionlessly on the floor.

Vier had completely bashed in Erik's head, his arms were covered in blood and so was his face.

Everyone didn't want to say a word.

"Did you think Kreel would've wanted that for him?" Alexandra sat down next to Drache.

"What did you say?" Vier turns around, his blood pumping through his system, his nostrils flared up and his lips curled. He looked into Alexandra's eyes. An ominous aura filled the room.

"You probably know Kreel longer than I do, but c'mon, would he really want to you to kill a man for him?" Alexandra was unbothered as she said these words. Vier stood up, fresh blood still dripping down his hands. "You're not any better Vier. You're a murderer, just like him." Alexandra stood up.

Vier appeared within an instant in front of Alexandra, his fists connected with Alexandra's face. Vier seemed to have turned on his [Deathly Aura].

Alexandra countered by grabbing both of his hands and crushing them. His bones cracked as they magically healed in an instant again. Alexandra was caught off guard by this and was smacked across the face by a blood-covered fist. All she could smell was the metallic smell of the blood.

Her whole face was implanted into the ground as Vier stomped on the back of her head, causing her head to get deeper into the ground. "So he is a wielder..." She thinks to herself as he tries to get up.

"YOU BITCH!" Vier tried to use another skill but Alexandra turned around, with a piece of the floor, and threw it at Vier. Vier was caught off guard by this and was shocked for a single moment, giving Alexandra enough time to fight back.

The two of them traded blows with one another, both of their fists connecting at the same time. A giant shockwave caused everyone in the room to move back a little.

The entire fight was happening in a fraction of a second, most of the gang barely had enough time to react to the two fighting.

Both of them were at a stalemate, their feet stuck to the ground and their fists at each other's faces.

"I'm sorry." Alexandra grabbed the back of Vier's head, pulling him closer to her. "I know that you're grieving." She whispered into his ear.

Vier was caught off guard, he went from nearly killing him to now being hugged by her.

"It's not easy to lose someone. Trust me. But you can't put your anger into others and kill others. You'll only go down a bad path." She holds him closer. "It's okay."

Vier's face turns unresponsive, back to his emotionless expression.

He slowly slips from Alexandra's grip, his own grip weakening as he slowly loses consciousness, blacking out.

"What the fuck was that about?" Sylas appeared behind Alexandra, grabbing her arm.

"Don't worry." Alexandra looks Sylas dead in the eye. "Bury Kreel, he won't be able to bear the sight of him when he wakes up."

Alexandra looks down at Vier, he's knocked out cold. "Unface wasn't wrong. You're pretty strong, kid." She smiles.

"I'm not a special kid." A young Vier is sitting by himself on the top of a flight of stairs.

"Why aren't you?" Kreel walks up behind Vier, he's caught off guard and falls down the stairs.

His head hits against every step.

"Oops." Kreel couldn't hold back his giggling.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ABOUT?" Vier touches his head, there's a massive bump on it.

"Why are you sitting alone yourself?" Kreel walks down the stairs towards Vier.

"Why do you care so much?" Vier stands up. "You looking for a fight pal? Cause I'll give you one!" He tries to throw a punch, but it just makes the fat around Kreel's belly jiggle.

"You're pretty funny." Kreel laughs. "I was told you're always by yourself and you're a loner. You only hang around with that Lynn girl. Say, why don't we become friends?" Kreel smiles as he outstretches a hand towards Vier, for a handshake.

Vier is caught off-guard, he's never had a friendly gesture like this towards him. "This must be a prank!" He thinks to himself.

"Don't worry, it's not a prank," Kreel assures him, that it was as if he was reading his mind. Vier is amazed. He bows down to Kreel.

"What's is your name, my highness?" Vier is practically worshipping him.

"Uh..." Kreel is caught off-guard, "My name is Kreel."

"Thank you Wheel." Vier bowed down.

Kreel didn't even notice that Vier had called him wheel. He just smiled. "There's no need to bow down to me." Kreel picked Vier up. "No matter what, we're both equal to one another." Kreel smiles as he gives Vier a big hug.

"So this is what it feels to have friends?" Vier was surprised at first, but then he hugged him back. "Let's be friends forever." Vier smiled back.
