80 Conflict and Death

Walking into the room where Bruce was still currently upset about being bit, Jayce tried his hardest to make his body turn around so that he could avoid the conflict about to start in hopes of living another day.

"Jayce what are you doing back here? Didn't I give you an order? " Bruce said standing up and walking over to Jayce.

"... " Jayce wanted to reply but the words wouldn't come out instead his body walked past Bruce and opened the doors allowing Alice to see Sora lying unconscious on the bed still tied up.

"Grrraahhhh.. Re..leash… er.. " Jayce said almost painfully with Alice pushing the limit of the spell forcing Jayce to speak for her.

"Hahahaha! Why would I do that? What is wrong with you, we have done this many times already. " Bruce laughed while pushing Jayce away from the room and stepping between him and the door closing it again.

"I.. whil.. Kell.. u.. " Jayce said mimicking the words Alice was forcing him to say.

"That even funnier, you should leave while I still have the patience to let you off with what you just said. " Bruce said, looking serious, placing his hand on Jayce's shoulder and gripping hard.

Making Jayce pull out his dagger Jayce quickly tried stabbing Bruce in the throat.

Seeing the blade coming Bruce put his palm in the way letting his palm get stabbed through stopping Jayce's attack. "Hey. You really must want to die. "

Looking at Bruce with fear Jayce prayed to his God as fast as he could knowing his end was near.

Pulling the blade out of his palm Bruce slowly pushed the dagger through Jayce's chest lodging it into his heart killing Jayce who was now bleeding out on the floor. Seeing the shadow leave his body and quickly make its way out of the room Bruce realized Jayce was being controlled.

"Looks like it is time to leave this place since the Demon girl knows where the little girl is. " Bruce said while wrapping his hand tight in cloth to stop the bleeding.

"FUCK! " Alice yelled out realizing she messed up a great opportunity to get Sora back. Taking to the sky again Alice waited for another person to leave the building so she could try again.

Seeing Bruce leave the building surrounded by a small army of troops and a strange cloaked man beside him Alice decided to bet it all on the moment and rushed down to try and swipe Sora off Bruce's shoulder and fly away. Flying down Alice crashed hard into a barrier being cast by the cloaked man.

Looking up Bruce smiled knowing that as long as the mage he had with him was around very few people would be able to reach him giving him all the freedom in the world to walk around without worry.

"Sylas, do it. " Bruce said, giving the cloaked man the signal to get rid of Alice.

Lifting a hand up towards Alice, Sylas opened his hand slowly. "Wind Cannon"

As soon as the words left his mouth the wind violently formed into a ball in his hand and launched at Alice with almost no time to react. Hitting Alice hard the spell sent Alice flying further up into the air. If not for her wings she would be dead as soon as she hit the ground.

Flying back to where they were Alice cursed seeing that Sora was nowhere to be found, the men that captured her had all but vanished.

"Alice!! Follow us!! " Alan yelled out riding his Tular through the Kingdom quickly in order to try and catch up to Sora and the men that took her.

Not wasting any time Alice flew above Alan and Hara keeping pace with their mounts as they weaved in and out of the streets and people. As they approached the northern gates exit to leave the Kingdom Alice was able to see Sora being tossed into a crate on the back of a wagon being pulled by two large Tular.

Seeing Alice catching up to them Bruce jumped onto the wagon and whipped the reigns making the Tular quickly take off keeping distance between Alice and himself.

Seeing the timer rapidly decrease Alice begins to panic even more with Sora's life hanging on the line if she fails. Picking up speed she starts to close the gap on them while getting further away from Alan and Hara who were struggling to keep up.

"Sylas a little help? " Bruce yelled out wanting to break free of his pursuer knowing if things kept going at this rate he would be caught by Sora's friend.

"Im on it. " Sylas said now standing in the wagon and pulling out an old wooden rod that acted as a tool to increase his power output.

Seeing him pull out the rod Alice took her scythe out as well ready to defend herself, she was not about to let herself lose sight of Sora now.

"Wind Cannon" Sylas said out loud forming a larger Burst of wind to rocket at Alice who infused her wind element in her weapon and swung it hard making contact with his attack splitting it in half almost creating a tornado where she had just flown by due to the clash of wind going in opposite directions.

"It isn't working! " Sylas yelled back to Bruce while repeatedly firing off the same attack over and over at Alice was now used to deflecting him.

"Try something else then!!! " Bruce yelled back as they approached the forest separating the Kingdom or Jorgen from the Kingdom of Nye.

Slowly twirling the rod in his hand, Sylas began to form a vortex behind him forcing a large amount of wind to fly at Alice while speeding up the wagon.

Waking up and seeing Alice chasing after them Sora yelled out "ALICEE!! "

Hearing her scream Alice pushed herself to the limit trying to catch back up while fighting against the torrent of wind being sent her way, even using Rift Warp at her current speed was not letting her catch up any quicker than her current pace.

Trying to roll off the wagon Sylas had no choice but to stop his vortex and stop Sora from falling off the wagon, she was after all the whole reason he was fighting with the strange winged woman who would kill him the first chance she got.

Taking her chance Alice used her full speed to catch up she was now within arms reach of the wagon. "Let her go and I let you live! " Alice yelled out desperate to free Sora any way she could.

"Savee m-- " Sora yelled out, being muffled by Bruce.

"Back off or the girl dies! " Bruce yelled out.

Seeing him pulling out a dagger Alice acted without thinking, using rift warp she swiped the weapon from his hands causing him to lose control of the tular which took a sharp turn to the right sending them all flying off the wagon as it crashed against a tree.

Slowly waking up and getting up she pulled the dagger out of her leg, 'I must have gotten stabbed by it in the crash fuck where is Sora?' Alice thought to herself and looking around her trying to find Sora as soon as she could in hopes of beating Bruce to her.

"You woke up just a bit too late girl. " Bruce said, holding Sora in his arms with another dagger held to her throat.

Seeing the timer almost up Alice went to take a step forward, "Don't you dare touch her! "

"Not so fast girl. Move any further and I sever her head from her body, that is your favorite was to kill is it not? Cutting people in half, I think I might give it a try if you make any moves. " Bruce said with a smile.

"Fine.. just please put her down and take the blade away from her neck.. You win, I give up. " Alice said not knowing what else to do.

"I have men coming to assist me from the next Kingdom, the little girl will live if you just stay there until they get here. Why do you go so far for this child? I am curious. " Bruce asked, trying to distract Alice with conversation and buy himself time until the other faction members meet up with him.

"She is like a little sister to me, I do not like to lose the people I care for.. Please I am begging you just put her down.. " Alice begged, dropping her weapon to the ground.

"Haha why should I do that? Maybe I should make you watch your little sister die after causing me so much trouble. " Bruce said with a smile hearing Tular approaching from a distance.

| Quest Failed |

"NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Alice screamed in anger seeing the quest notification appear letting her know what was about to happen.

"ALICE!!! " Sora screamed back seeing her panicking as Bruce threw her to the ground and pulled out his sword and swung it hard at Sora.
