Part 5 is here. Last one? Who knows.
"No no no! No i-it can't be! I-I only-" Tears began forming in Roman's eyes.
"You... betrayed Princess Valerie.. and your country." The guard said. "You are a disgrace to the throne!"
"Save it, buster." A short servant stood behind the guard.
"Stay out of this. Get back to work." The guard flicked them on the forehead.
"You have no right to order anyone around!" Virgil shot up. He got off the bed, shirtless, and took Talyn's arm. He pulled them away from the guard. "That's a kings job."
Roman sat on the bed, panicking. He knew this was the end of his ruling.
"So, Talyn, get back to work." Virgil said, looking down upon them.
The guard smacked him clean across the face, which caused Talyn to step back.
Roman stared at them. His vision went blurry. But he was furious.
"You shouls be dead! I should have made sure you died right there!" The guard yelled.
Virgil looked up at him and smirked. "Whoever dies loses." He sighed. "Games not over."
The guard smirked and grabbed the sword by his side.
Roman passed out and Talyn went to his aid immediately.
"Take care of him! Remy, Dee and Logan will help you." Virgil looked back at them. "I'll be back later."
Virgil ran out from the guard. He slid down the railing of the stairs and jumped off at the end. He ran over to the sword rack and grabbed one of the swords then ran out of the king room and down the stairs to the outside.
"Wouldn't want to risk getting blood on anything! And plus, it's a nice day out!" Virgil said as he kept running. He stopped and swung his sword behind him, striking the man in the arm.
"So, just because the king is fond of you, that makes you a king?" The guard asked.
"I'd like to think so." His sword clashed with the other's.
"But your a servant. And you-" he stopped Virgil's attack. "Don't have even a trace of royal blood in you."
"Royalty is like imprisonment." He dropped his sword as he was sliced in the forearm. He picked it up with his other hand and sliced at his leg.
"And to top it off." Their swords struck and he looked deep into Virgil's eyes. "Your a man."
Virgil moved his sword away and stepped to the side to dodge his attack. "Says who?" He smirked. "You don't know what's down there."
"Prove to me your a woman then."
He hit his shoulder hard with the flat end on his sword. "Let's not get too eager now."
The guard held his shoulder and made an attack towards the servant causing him to collapse. He held the sword at neck point. "Over already."
"Seems so." Virgil sighed. "But that wouldn't be too fun. Y'know, being scolded, or even punished, every day by the king himself."
"It would be understandable. I'll do anything to have the royal family continue as it should." He pressed the sword closer. He pricked his neck and blood began trickling down.
"Well, it can't be helped then." Virgil said.
Just as he pushed down, Virgil moved to the side, causing a scratch at his throat. He coughed up blood and moved out of the guard's grasp. He grabbed his sword and moved the point along his back.
"I don't give up so easily." He said, voice raspy and still coughing.
His vision started becoming darker. He saw the man charging at him, but he tried his best to hold his sword up.
"I'm not letting you have him.. so easily.." he said before collapsing again. Everything went black.
"Shock. He passed out from shock." The nurse said. "Stay here and keep an eye on him."
"O-Of course!" Logan said. He looked down at the unconcious King.
"Where is he? He told me he'd be back. It's been three hours!" Talyn sighed in frustration.
"Do you suppose something happened?" Patton asked, worried.
"Please, it's Virgil we're talking about. I highly doubt anything happened to him." Dee said.
"That guard knows no sword tricks. Virgil knows a lot. He didn't have a chance. But maybe something did happen." Logan shrugged.
"We'll go check on him, then!" Remy said.
"Get Queen Valerie in here, then you can go." Patton demanded.
Valerie had already stepped in the room as he said that. So Remy and Dee were on their way.
