Nearing nightfall did she awake in a cold sweat this was the first time the nightmare had come to her during the day when she rested. Amethyst rised from beside Syrus, her eyes looked down upon her love with a tender look to her eyes. A hand reached out did she caress her fingers over his cheek softly, her hand lifted away from his cheek did she tiptoe away from his side to near the flowing stream. Ame kneeled beside the waters, her hand touched the waves when they rolled over the rocks, her hand weived in circles creating a funnel in the waters. Voice whispered softly," Goddess open the field to the past. Please show me the truth of what is there what is being hidden from my eye. I tire of this secret that eats at my mind yet still it won't appear"
The waters began to sizzle, and burn from her touch as sparks ignited when her fingers touched the volcanic rock that layed asleep under the waters, her hand lifted away from the waters did she eye her finger tips for a moment. Amethyst's lips held a frown for a moment, her head soon began to ache when she lowered it into her hands the soul inside crying out to her as the image of the past played once more into her mind. The waters whirled faster with the movement of the scene in her mind did a silver light flow forth from the center making the swirling calm, her eyes lifted to see the village, and castle were she had been born into the world. Spirit flowed into the picture that seemed to look like the night before a marriage was to be performed in the Castle Meidros, rejoining the Gloran and Medeiros as one family that had been torn apart. As she watched it was like she was living this moment.
A woman beside a pool was crying, her hand touching the waters creating ripples in the waves. Words were being whispered," For give me goddess that blessed my family with all that we have. My heart is not in this marriage it belongs to another, but he has disappeared leaving me with a burden that will appear to my family soon. " The moon above seem to light with a fire as a phoenix appeared accompanied by an angel, and a woman that seemed to be glow light white silver of the moon, her eyes looked red with anger," You whom have cheated on the man that would be your husband come dawn will not know forgiveness to marry your love. The child born from that union will be gifted to the Phoenix Angels as a guardian. She will suffer a life of no feeling enless true love sets her free. " At that the phoenix angel came forward to the female he had secretly loved sense being assigned to protect the family of the white phoenix. His hand pressed to the womans body did a fire relise from his hand into her body to enter the seed created there to soon be made into a child. His eyes relised tears that looked like fireballs when he turned to move away at the side of the goddess. Stopping to whisper to the two phoenixes that stayed behind to act as guardians to the child.
Nine months later the marriage had happened, and anger had come to the now reborn clan as one. A child was born but not of the looks of their lord, but yet of the mother. Demands for the marriage to be annuled was called for, but the lord wouldn't leave his wife, and new daughter no matter what he loved Sollona. Sollona had come to love her new husband in the next nine months when he showed her such understanding when informed of the child to come was not his own. Now that she was born the phoenix angels appeared with their living pets the phoenixes each bares two for the houses they guard. The guardian of the moon goddess and house of Medeiros came forward, his voice hardened," The time has come this child was blessed to our world so she must be trained till she turns two years old in your world which is 20 years in ours. At that time she will be returned, but memories blocked of the past or her training till the time comes for her to take on her duties as a Phoenix Angel by which time I can only tell you that hopeful she meets her true love for if not the mortal part of her will be torn to death. " As they angels tried to take the child would war break out in the house for Lord Medeiros refused to allow them to take the child. Guards and the people of his house though angered over being lied to could never see a child taken away from it's parents did they revolute against the choice of their goddess that this child not live a mortal life. In the end the Medeiros didn't survive but one the child, and the few guards that protected her with their life. Even though the fight had lasted and the remaining people escaped did the child get taken away.
The scene left the waters, her head was bowed when tears cursed down her cheeks, " Damn you mother.. Damn you for leaving me lies that my father was a Phoenix Guardian when in truths it was a curse given to me because of your first young love." She rised her head shakes did she turn from the waters," I am Medeiros but yet also the blood of another family, but which one." she whispered softly. Amethyst reached her hand out to pluck one of the crystal red and white roses from the cluster beside the stream. She turned the rose in her hand for a moment before moving with slow steps towards Syrus. Ame kneeled beside him, her head bows did she gift him with a tender kiss to the lips, then rested the rose beside him. " Rest for now Syrus let this place heal you. I will return to take your place this night on duty." her voice was a soft whisper into his mind.
Amethyst would rise did she collect her daggers placing them into her belt, her eyes noticed the flute did she caress her fingers over it lightly. This had been a gift of the same goddess that had cursed her, but in the end with Naos tear had forgiven her enough to allow the love to relise her. A sigh past her lips as thought flooded her mind," But will he stay with me forever or find another in the future. How can a king love a tavern owner." her figure glowed white for a moment with this thoughts did she disappear from the healing place back to the earth. When the light faded it was to leave her before Serge and Sarah, her eyes looked upon them," You two go rest I will take over Syrus place this night. Don't ask when he awakens we will tell you what happened." she said lightly.
Amethyst entered Syrus's office, her eyes glanced over the pills of paperwork sitting there waiting for his signature. Head shakes some when she takes a sit down in the chair that he uses. She picks up some of the papers settling back to read over them, her fingers search for the signment stone she had that held his signature on. She began placing the seal to the orders for new weapons, and uniforms for the new recruits. New pay to the teachers being brought in to train the new guards, and repairs that needed done to the bunk house, and training grounds. Always on her mind did it play in wonder did Syrus save her because he loved her truely, or was he just being nice not to hurt her. Not much had been said between them, so her worries were high about having opened her heart to the man she had secretly loved for a long time, but did he love her that deeply or was there another also or will there be. Resting back against the chair, her eyes watched the fireplace for a moment, her hand reached up to pull down the circlet that rested upon her head. She glanced at it did she brush her fingers over this special gift from Syrus, her lips pressed a kiss to it before placing it once more upon her head.
The shadows of night were begin to set in now it was time to make rounds of the castle to make sure the windows were locked shut, and the doors shut for the night. Check the guard towers and make sure the gates were closed. Steps were slowly when she went upon her rounds through the slightly light castle, her foot falls silent to the ear when she moved but the two guards that were accompanying her steps were more noisey as they were wearing their armor. Stopping for a moment she looked at the kings bedroom doors," Where is the two guards that are suppost to be here?" she asked when looking at the guards behind her for a moment. One stepped forward," They came down sick miss no one could be found to stand here tonight." the ranked guard said. She turned to look at them some," And it's a problem for two high guards to stand guard here ?" she hissed at them. Then shakes her head, " you will stop your rounds here. Till the second shift comes you two will stay here and guard the king understood." they gulped hearing the stern voice of the female, her eyes were narrowed holding an angered look. She turned from them moving along her way did she stop into the empty rooms to check the balcony doors, and windows then returned to the hallways to do the same. Ame stopped for a moment at one, her eyes looked to the heavens to watch the moon to her eyes the shrine could be seen all the time. She watched it for a moment with it's silver glow in the night, her lips relised a sigh when she moved on down the hallway," It's going to be a long night." her lips relised a whisper.

By midnight she had finished the castle sweep going through the rooms, and checking the doors. She had also searched the different sections she remembered hearing Syrus talk about that he hadn't checked for secret passages yet a couple had been found but she hadn't explored them. Amethyst just jotted them down for now onto paper, her foot steps carrying her outside now to check the bunk house to make sure all was present, and no uncounted for people. Then onto the rounds of checking the walls, and gates. Amethyst movements were slower tonight because she was still weak from the battle during the day knowing she was pushing the matter by being up and around before she probably should be, but wasn't about to left Syrus come here without resting sense she had caused him to loss his rest for the day with a challenge towards her.
She remembered hearing the flute yet still it didn't convince her that he probably was true in his intent for her spirit had seen the tear for Naos, and wondered if a another god could bless something for someone to help them. Did Syrus love her truely, or love her like a sister? this things played on her mind. Distracting her to the fact the dugeon guard from the night before was following her till she heard his gruff voice behind her,"Well well the little tavern wench here in the castle. Which man did you come here to party with ? or come to see me pretty." he chuckled. An arm locking around her waist dragging her against a solid body of fat that was behind her. Amethyst growled when she snapped her head back though it caused her a headache. He chuckled when he ducked his head to the side avoiding possible getting his nose smashed," Now now my pretty we aren't going to hurt you none. Just have a little pleasure." he whispered into her ear. She turned her head her lips parted did she bite hard at his neck causing him to curse. He shoved her forward away from him, " damn you bitch now you will pay for that." Ame spun around just as two guards came along to grab the dugeon master to draw him away from her," We will take care of him miss. He is a little drunk again tonight " They began to lead him away when he jerked free of them. He spun around to plant a fist into their faces," Leave me alone I am going to teach this bitch her place." She drew her eyes towards the training arena," Ok so you wish to teach me a leason ah. then we will do it there." she said moving towards the arena, her head was spinning as the dissy spell was begin to take over again with her headache.
Ame entered the arena did she glance along the wall were the weapons to train with were kept, her steps carried her to the farther side of the arena. She turned to face the dugeon master," Well go ahead pick your weapon lad." her tone was stern and cold now. She began to take on a white glow, her eyes shifting to a color of pure silver reminding one of winter.
Dugeon master took up a mace, and shield from the wall before turning to the female, his lips holding a smirk. He twirls the mace in his meaty hands flexing those muscles to show off to the crowd begin to grow around the arena from the disturbance that came from outside," You sure you want to do this lady. How about instead we settle for dealing with this in the private room"he snickered in his gruff voice. Taking his position at the center of the ring, his eyes watching what she might pick.
Amethyst stepped forward looking to be unhanded as her daggers were always stuck in various places, her hand raised did she motion for him to bring it on. Eyes of silver watched him while the glow more around her figure, her steps began to carry her in a circle around the man.
The man leapped forward towards Ame, his hand raised high bring the mace downwards fast and hard in an arch. His aim was to smack it into the side of the head for a headache and ripping some flesh away with the sharp points. He kept the shield raised and close to try to block all enterance to his body.
Ame's head snapped to the side when she watched the movement of the mace. It tore through the flesh of her shoulder blade, her hand snapped upwards when it continued it's downwards sweep. Once hands captured the wood it would begin to freeze from her touch, and become cold to hold turning to skin red from frost bit. Both hands came in contact with the metal mace now did she take a firm grip then begins to turn in a spin, her energy being used to feed her strength so it inlarged to allow her to move this male. As she planned to spin then relise the weapon to send him flying into the wall.
He gasped as his body began to shiver, and he couldn't let go of the mace as his hands were frozzen to it. He was drawn into the spin wanting to throw up now from the spinning motion as it doesn't mix well with being drunk. When she came to a halt finally relising him as the ice melts from the mace did he get thrown backwards with weapon falling from his hands. Instead of hitting the wall though he dug his feet into the earth coming to a halt sending dust rising up around him. He dodged to the wall to grab up a double bladed axe this trip leaving the shield behind, both hands gripping the weapon. He came running at Ame from the side moving in an arc, his hands held the axe close to the earth only bring it upwards in a swift arc aiming to rip through her side and acrosssed her mid section.

Amethyst's eyes always evident of her opponates actions watched his axe did her mind seem to count the seconds that it was taking to bring the axe towards her. At the last second her body whirled back out of the way, her hands drawing daggers from her waist hidden from the eye. As she brings them forth does she strike them together creating sparks that ignite into flames from the vocanic glass that was mixed into the blades. Amethyst flicks one forward aiming to slice acrossed his front, her body spun around behind him with her hand down then arched the blade upwards in an attempt to slice the man from the lower back upwards from lift side to the right shoulder if successful it would catch him on fire.
He put the axe down and body bent back to avoid the first dagger thrown seeing it from the corner of his eye, but he didn't watch the girls movement. Thanks to his movement to avoid one did he feel his flesh being ripped through along the back, as fire began to ignite along his clothing. Cries of pain filled the night mixxing with the cheers, his body dropped to the earth to roll in the dirt. Eyes now narrowed flared with the taste for murder, " Damn you bitch I will kill you for that." he yelled when he stumbled back to his feet.
Amethyst snickered though she was growing weak with each movement she took sense she wasn't fully healed yet. She moved in another circle around this raging bull did she await his next move.

Syrus stirred in his sleep as soft and beautiful dreams that had filled his mind now raced back to visions of his brother. He saw his father, his king going to greet Sieg with a hug only to be met in the chest with a single sword and a laugh. All that could be seen after that was blood as the scene raced to the first time Sy encountered his murderous traitor of a brother. " Do not flee, my blade with taste your flesh eventually brother! " He screamed as Sieg, fully transformed into his vampyric appearance for the first time after slaying Count Gaven. Sieg had laughed the sinister snickering laugh he had laughed after killing his father and charged Auron, who had not yet taken on his father's first name yet. Syrus had swung oblivion with great blind fury and ignored his brother's attack completely. He had drawn his blade from Sieg's left shoulder to the right of his waist, leaving a lasting scar that was met by Sieg slashing with both blades, marking Sy's back with a deep gash in the shape of an X. Sy had hit the ground and his spine was nearly severed, leading to his amnesia and sickness at Pendragon's gate. After the battle, Syrus awakened inside the castle, and there had been no sign of Sieg. When asked by his saviors if they had seen them they noted that they had scared off a man with great wings and the fangs of a vampire, who had two swords drawn above Syrus.
Once again the scene was cleared, and returned to when Syrus had first come home to Algeroth, a daemon sent by Sieg had appeared in the court of the castle, and had been instructed to attack Syrus, but to first remove the necklace from his chest. Syrus had transformed out of rage, without the help of Syn to control the great daemon within him did he fight the menace as Fortinbras, but nearly killed all the friends that had been there in the castle as well, and had caused great damage to Castle Warheight as the battle dragged on. It was here that another secret had been revealed to him. That those who loved, admired, and layed their trust in Syrus, were the victims of the same power of those who had been slain by Sieg. Both brothers could shapeshift, but how they acquired their targets, was what seperated their ability. Still, Syrus could never bring himself to use this gift, except once in the battle alongside Jordan. He had transformed into his brother to cloak his appearance there. It was true that at one time Syrus and Sieg had been true brothers and trusted each other with their lives, they fought together, trained together, and lived together. But all that changed when their father died and Sieg realized, that the throne, nor Fortinbras could ever be his as long as Syrus lived. Hence...came his struggle to become a god.
With one last thought of Amethyst in danger did Syrus snap into consciousness and appear before her as the behemoth she fought stood. He extended a single arm with the most graceful of movements, now fully healed, armored, and equipped back with all his weapons did he sling the man into the outer wall with nay but his mind. " Leave...her...be. "

The man fought to try to break free of what was holding him to the wall, his eyes were raging with anger. He growled at the man that came between them," Damnit this is our fight you shouldn't involve yourself" he hissed in his gruff tone. He looked up slightly now then had to gulp when he relised it was the new high captain.
Amethyst came to Syrus's side when she looked to the man that was against the wall," Are you sure you want let down? This man is my equal, and believe me if you continue sir either I or him will probably end up killing you. Especially him." her eyes closed as she knew in her state at the time she could easily loss having been using a massive amount of restored energy to protect the place Syrus had been sleeping in, and not having allowed herself to fully heal before coming down here. She graced Syrus with a tender smile, her hand coming out to touch his arm," Let him down Sy. I think he knows not to try anything," her voice was a whisper for him alone. She watched his face seeing the strain guessing he had had another nightmare after the moment she had left his side to take on his duties for the night.

Syrus growled low, it seemed that every time he left her she was getting into mischief, he sighed and whispered. " Alright then. " He clenched his fist and the man pushed into the wall harder leaving cracks and sending bits of dust out. He released the man and he dropped into the snow, followed by a nearby torch sconch 'accidentally' falling onto him with a thud and alighting his clothes with a small oil fire. " Amethyst, are you okay? Why in the hell would you come here to an arena fight after not even resting?? " Syrus' anger disappeared and he closed his eyes, teeming with guilt. He pushed forward a little bit closer to her and embraced her with a tender hug from his arms that were enourmous to her being. He opened his eyes and drew his hands back to her shoulders seperating them a little bit. " If I can't leave you entrusted to sleep, at least allow me to buy you a drink? " He smiled and nodded in the direction of the tavern.
He eyed the guy on the wall to see if he might do something stupid as he beat out the fire, it looked as though he might have had enough for now.

Amethyst chuckles softly," Well it started out as just me meerly doing your duties for you. I wanted you to rest sense I knew you haven't sense I cam here." her own mind was filled with guilt over that matter also wondering if she had done the right thing coming here, but soon pushed it away. Eyes watched the guards carrying their buddy away to the healors office to get him fixed up. She chuckled softly watching what Syrus did before her eyes turned to watch him for a moment and always did she wonder how they had come to actually be together being from two different classes and worlds.
She grins softly when she looked towards the tavern," Sure a nice drink, and probably some food. Hehe you can order while i get changed out of this clothes that been wearing for a day and half now." she teases him. Amethyst would move to follow his lead towards the tavern.

Nearing nightfall did she awake in a cold sweat this was the first time the nightmare had come to her during the day when she rested. Amethyst rised from beside Syrus, her eyes looked down upon her love with a tender look to her eyes. A hand reached out did she caress her fingers over his cheek softly, her hand lifted away from his cheek did she tiptoe away from his side to near the flowing stream. Ame kneeled beside the waters, her hand touched the waves when they rolled over the rocks, her hand weived in circles creating a funnel in the waters. Voice whispered softly," Goddess open the field to the past. Please show me the truth of what is there what is being hidden from my eye. I tire of this secret that eats at my mind yet still it won't appear"
The waters began to sizzle, and burn from her touch as sparks ignited when her fingers touched the volcanic rock that layed asleep under the waters, her hand lifted away from the waters did she eye her finger tips for a moment. Amethyst's lips held a frown for a moment, her head soon began to ache when she lowered it into her hands the soul inside crying out to her as the image of the past played once more into her mind. The waters whirled faster with the movement of the scene in her mind did a silver light flow forth from the center making the swirling calm, her eyes lifted to see the village, and castle were she had been born into the world. Spirit flowed into the picture that seemed to look like the night before a marriage was to be performed in the Castle Meidros, rejoining the Gloran and Medeiros as one family that had been torn apart. As she watched it was like she was living this moment.
A woman beside a pool was crying, her hand touching the waters creating ripples in the waves. Words were being whispered," For give me goddess that blessed my family with all that we have. My heart is not in this marriage it belongs to another, but he has disappeared leaving me with a burden that will appear to my family soon. " The moon above seem to light with a fire as a phoenix appeared accompanied by an angel, and a woman that seemed to be glow light white silver of the moon, her eyes looked red with anger," You whom have cheated on the man that would be your husband come dawn will not know forgiveness to marry your love. The child born from that union will be gifted to the Phoenix Angels as a guardian. She will suffer a life of no feeling enless true love sets her free. " At that the phoenix angel came forward to the female he had secretly loved sense being assigned to protect the family of the white phoenix. His hand pressed to the womans body did a fire relise from his hand into her body to enter the seed created there to soon be made into a child. His eyes relised tears that looked like fireballs when he turned to move away at the side of the goddess. Stopping to whisper to the two phoenixes that stayed behind to act as guardians to the child.
Nine months later the marriage had happened, and anger had come to the now reborn clan as one. A child was born but not of the looks of their lord, but yet of the mother. Demands for the marriage to be annuled was called for, but the lord wouldn't leave his wife, and new daughter no matter what he loved Sollona. Sollona had come to love her new husband in the next nine months when he showed her such understanding when informed of the child to come was not his own. Now that she was born the phoenix angels appeared with their living pets the phoenixes each bares two for the houses they guard. The guardian of the moon goddess and house of Medeiros came forward, his voice hardened," The time has come this child was blessed to our world so she must be trained till she turns two years old in your world which is 20 years in ours. At that time she will be returned, but memories blocked of the past or her training till the time comes for her to take on her duties as a Phoenix Angel by which time I can only tell you that hopeful she meets her true love for if not the mortal part of her will be torn to death. " As they angels tried to take the child would war break out in the house for Lord Medeiros refused to allow them to take the child. Guards and the people of his house though angered over being lied to could never see a child taken away from it's parents did they revolute against the choice of their goddess that this child not live a mortal life. In the end the Medeiros didn't survive but one the child, and the few guards that protected her with their life. Even though the fight had lasted and the remaining people escaped did the child get taken away.
The scene left the waters, her head was bowed when tears cursed down her cheeks, " Damn you mother.. Damn you for leaving me lies that my father was a Phoenix Guardian when in truths it was a curse given to me because of your first young love." She rised her head shakes did she turn from the waters," I am Medeiros but yet also the blood of another family, but which one." she whispered softly. Amethyst reached her hand out to pluck one of the crystal red and white roses from the cluster beside the stream. She turned the rose in her hand for a moment before moving with slow steps towards Syrus. Ame kneeled beside him, her head bows did she gift him with a tender kiss to the lips, then rested the rose beside him. " Rest for now Syrus let this place heal you. I will return to take your place this night on duty." her voice was a soft whisper into his mind.
Amethyst would rise did she collect her daggers placing them into her belt, her eyes noticed the flute did she caress her fingers over it lightly. This had been a gift of the same goddess that had cursed her, but in the end with Naos tear had forgiven her enough to allow the love to relise her. A sigh past her lips as thought flooded her mind," But will he stay with me forever or find another in the future. How can a king love a tavern owner." her figure glowed white for a moment with this thoughts did she disappear from the healing place back to the earth. When the light faded it was to leave her before Serge and Sarah, her eyes looked upon them," You two go rest I will take over Syrus place this night. Don't ask when he awakens we will tell you what happened." she said lightly.
Amethyst entered Syrus's office, her eyes glanced over the pills of paperwork sitting there waiting for his signature. Head shakes some when she takes a sit down in the chair that he uses. She picks up some of the papers settling back to read over them, her fingers search for the signment stone she had that held his signature on. She began placing the seal to the orders for new weapons, and uniforms for the new recruits. New pay to the teachers being brought in to train the new guards, and repairs that needed done to the bunk house, and training grounds. Always on her mind did it play in wonder did Syrus save her because he loved her truely, or was he just being nice not to hurt her. Not much had been said between them, so her worries were high about having opened her heart to the man she had secretly loved for a long time, but did he love her that deeply or was there another also or will there be. Resting back against the chair, her eyes watched the fireplace for a moment, her hand reached up to pull down the circlet that rested upon her head. She glanced at it did she brush her fingers over this special gift from Syrus, her lips pressed a kiss to it before placing it once more upon her head.
The shadows of night were begin to set in now it was time to make rounds of the castle to make sure the windows were locked shut, and the doors shut for the night. Check the guard towers and make sure the gates were closed.

She turned to look at them some," And it's a problem for two high guards to stand guard here ?" she hissed at them. Then shakes her head, " you will stop your rounds here. Till the second shift comes you two will stay here and guard the king understood." they gulped hearing the stern voice of the female, her eyes were narrowed holding an angered look. She turned from them moving along her way did she stop into the empty rooms to check the balcony doors, and windows then returned to the hallways to do the same. Ame stopped for a moment at one, her eyes looked to the heavens to watch the moon to her eyes the shrine could be seen all the time. She watched it for a moment with it's silver glow in the night, her lips relised a sigh when she moved on down the hallway," It's going to be a long night." her lips relised a whisper.

She remembered hearing the flute yet still it didn't convince her that he probably was true in his intent for her spirit had seen the tear for Naos, and wondered if a another god could bless something for someone to help them. Did Syrus love her truely, or love her like a sister? this things played on her mind. Distracting her to the fact the dugeon guard from the night before was following her till she heard his gruff voice behind her,"Well well the little tavern wench here in the castle. Which man did you come here to party with ? or come to see me pretty." he chuckled. An arm locking around her waist dragging her against a solid body of fat that was behind her. Amethyst growled when she snapped her head back though it caused her a headache. He chuckled when he ducked his head to the side avoiding possible getting his nose smashed," Now now my pretty we aren't going to hurt you none. Just have a little pleasure." he whispered into her ear. She turned her head her lips parted did she bite hard at his neck causing him to curse. He shoved her forward away from him, " damn you bitch now you will pay for that." Ame spun around just as two guards came along to grab the dugeon master to draw him away from her," We will take care of him miss. He is a little drunk again tonight " They began to lead him away when he jerked free of them. He spun around to plant a fist into their faces," Leave me alone I am going to teach this bitch her place." She drew her eyes towards the training arena," Ok so you wish to teach me a leason ah. then we will do it there." she said moving towards the arena, her head was spinning as the dissy spell was begin to take over again with her headache.
Ame entered the arena did she glance along the wall were the weapons to train with were kept, her steps carried her to the farther side of the arena. She turned to face the dugeon master," Well go ahead pick your weapon lad." her tone was stern and cold now. She began to take on a white glow, her eyes shifting to a color of pure silver reminding one of winter.
Dugeon master took up a mace, and shield from the wall before turning to the female, his lips holding a smirk. He twirls the mace in his meaty hands flexing those muscles to show off to the crowd begin to grow around the arena from the disturbance that came from outside," You sure you want to do this lady. How about instead we settle for dealing with this in the private room"he snickered in his gruff voice. Taking his position at the center of the ring, his eyes watching what she might pick.
Amethyst stepped forward looking to be unhanded as her daggers were always stuck in various places, her hand raised did she motion for him to bring it on. Eyes of silver watched him while the glow more around her figure, her steps began to carry her in a circle around the man.
The man leapped forward towards Ame, his hand raised high bring the mace downwards fast and hard in an arch. His aim was to smack it into the side of the head for a headache and ripping some flesh away with the sharp points. He kept the shield raised and close to try to block all enterance to his body.
Ame's head snapped to the side when she watched the movement of the mace. It tore through the flesh of her shoulder blade, her hand snapped upwards when it continued it's downwards sweep. Once hands captured the wood it would begin to freeze from her touch, and become cold to hold turning to skin red from frost bit. Both hands came in contact with the metal mace now did she take a firm grip then begins to turn in a spin, her energy being used to feed her strength so it inlarged to allow her to move this male. As she planned to spin then relise the weapon to send him flying into the wall.
He gasped as his body began to shiver, and he couldn't let go of the mace as his hands were frozzen to it. He was drawn into the spin wanting to throw up now from the spinning motion as it doesn't mix well with being drunk. When she came to a halt finally relising him as the ice melts from the mace did he get thrown backwards with weapon falling from his hands. Instead of hitting the wall though he dug his feet into the earth coming to a halt sending dust rising up around him. He dodged to the wall to grab up a double bladed axe this trip leaving the shield behind, both hands gripping the weapon. He came running at Ame from the side moving in an arc, his hands held the axe close to the earth only bring it upwards in a swift arc aiming to rip through her side and acrosssed her mid section.

Amethyst's eyes always evident of her opponates actions watched his axe did her mind seem to count the seconds that it was taking to bring the axe towards her. At the last second her body whirled back out of the way, her hands drawing daggers from her waist hidden from the eye. As she brings them forth does she strike them together creating sparks that ignite into flames from the vocanic glass that was mixed into the blades. Amethyst flicks one forward aiming to slice acrossed his front, her body spun around behind him with her hand down then arched the blade upwards in an attempt to slice the man from the lower back upwards from lift side to the right shoulder if successful it would catch him on fire.
He put the axe down and body bent back to avoid the first dagger thrown seeing it from the corner of his eye, but he didn't watch the girls movement. Thanks to his movement to avoid one did he feel his flesh being ripped through along the back, as fire began to ignite along his clothing. Cries of pain filled the night mixxing with the cheers, his body dropped to the earth to roll in the dirt. Eyes now narrowed flared with the taste for murder, " Damn you bitch I will kill you for that." he yelled when he stumbled back to his feet.
Amethyst snickered though she was growing weak with each movement she took sense she wasn't fully healed yet. She moved in another circle around this raging bull did she await his next move.

Syrus stirred in his sleep as soft and beautiful dreams that had filled his mind now raced back to visions of his brother. He saw his father, his king going to greet Sieg with a hug only to be met in the chest with a single sword and a laugh. All that could be seen after that was blood as the scene raced to the first time Sy encountered his murderous traitor of a brother. " Do not flee, my blade with taste your flesh eventually brother! " He screamed as Sieg, fully transformed into his vampyric appearance for the first time after slaying Count Gaven. Sieg had laughed the sinister snickering laugh he had laughed after killing his father and charged Auron, who had not yet taken on his father's first name yet. Syrus had swung oblivion with great blind fury and ignored his brother's attack completely. He had drawn his blade from Sieg's left shoulder to the right of his waist, leaving a lasting scar that was met by Sieg slashing with both blades, marking Sy's back with a deep gash in the shape of an X. Sy had hit the ground and his spine was nearly severed, leading to his amnesia and sickness at Pendragon's gate. After the battle, Syrus awakened inside the castle, and there had been no sign of Sieg. When asked by his saviors if they had seen them they noted that they had scared off a man with great wings and the fangs of a vampire, who had two swords drawn above Syrus.
Once again the scene was cleared, and returned to when Syrus had first come home to Algeroth, a daemon sent by Sieg had appeared in the court of the castle, and had been instructed to attack Syrus, but to first remove the necklace from his chest. Syrus had transformed out of rage, without the help of Syn to control the great daemon within him did he fight the menace as Fortinbras, but nearly killed all the friends that had been there in the castle as well, and had caused great damage to Castle Warheight as the battle dragged on. It was here that another secret had been revealed to him. That those who loved, admired, and layed their trust in Syrus, were the victims of the same power of those who had been slain by Sieg. Both brothers could shapeshift, but how they acquired their targets, was what seperated their ability. Still, Syrus could never bring himself to use this gift, except once in the battle alongside Jordan. He had transformed into his brother to cloak his appearance there. It was true that at one time Syrus and Sieg had been true brothers and trusted each other with their lives, they fought together, trained together, and lived together. But all that changed when their father died and Sieg realized, that the throne, nor Fortinbras could ever be his as long as Syrus lived. Hence...came his struggle to become a god.
With one last thought of Amethyst in danger did Syrus snap into consciousness and appear before her as the behemoth she fought stood. He extended a single arm with the most graceful of movements, now fully healed, armored, and equipped back with all his weapons did he sling the man into the outer wall with nay but his mind. " Leave...her...be. "

The man fought to try to break free of what was holding him to the wall, his eyes were raging with anger. He growled at the man that came between them," Damnit this is our fight you shouldn't involve yourself" he hissed in his gruff tone. He looked up slightly now then had to gulp when he relised it was the new high captain.
Amethyst came to Syrus's side when she looked to the man that was against the wall," Are you sure you want let down? This man is my equal, and believe me if you continue sir either I or him will probably end up killing you. Especially him." her eyes closed as she knew in her state at the time she could easily loss having been using a massive amount of restored energy to protect the place Syrus had been sleeping in, and not having allowed herself to fully heal before coming down here. She graced Syrus with a tender smile, her hand coming out to touch his arm," Let him down Sy. I think he knows not to try anything," her voice was a whisper for him alone. She watched his face seeing the strain guessing he had had another nightmare after the moment she had left his side to take on his duties for the night.

Syrus growled low, it seemed that every time he left her she was getting into mischief, he sighed and whispered. " Alright then. " He clenched his fist and the man pushed into the wall harder leaving cracks and sending bits of dust out. He released the man and he dropped into the snow, followed by a nearby torch sconch 'accidentally' falling onto him with a thud and alighting his clothes with a small oil fire. " Amethyst, are you okay? Why in the hell would you come here to an arena fight after not even resting?? " Syrus' anger disappeared and he closed his eyes, teeming with guilt. He pushed forward a little bit closer to her and embraced her with a tender hug from his arms that were enourmous to her being. He opened his eyes and drew his hands back to her shoulders seperating them a little bit. " If I can't leave you entrusted to sleep, at least allow me to buy you a drink? " He smiled and nodded in the direction of the tavern.
He eyed the guy on the wall to see if he might do something stupid as he beat out the fire, it looked as though he might have had enough for now.

Amethyst chuckles softly," Well it started out as just me meerly doing your duties for you. I wanted you to rest sense I knew you haven't sense I cam here." her own mind was filled with guilt over that matter also wondering if she had done the right thing coming here, but soon pushed it away. Eyes watched the guards carrying their buddy away to the healors office to get him fixed up. She chuckled softly watching what Syrus did before her eyes turned to watch him for a moment and always did she wonder how they had come to actually be together being from two different classes and worlds.
She grins softly when she looked towards the tavern," Sure a nice drink, and probably some food. Hehe you can order while i get changed out of this clothes that been wearing for a day and half now." she teases him. Amethyst would move to follow his lead towards the tavern.
