[color:"#a0a0ff"]THE CASTLE LABORATORY AGAIN

"Hmmmmmm, those cage bars seem to be made out of silver and they're definitely enchanted. No wonder, they can't be touched," I mused and watched DQueene successfully using the bucket and rope as a hook.

"PSSSSSSTTTTTT <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" />," we froze in our actions - I sensed a presence, no, several presences. Giving her a sign to wait here, I peered up the pen opening and saw a shadow, something was wrong, something was moving up there. DQueene folded her hands, I put my right foot into it, leant on her shoulder and she flung me up with all her might, I soared up, landed and the fight dance started again... my eyes started to burn... I felt them glowing...

...blood rushing... wardrums strumming through my veins... a fiend... a foe... I whirled... I danced... I hit and dodged... my fists crunched chins... bones broke...

I don't know if it were 2 or 3 enemies who had sneaked in the rooms - I was movement - battle - a whirlwind of death. My outstretched fingers pricked into eyes, I chopped into throats, my elbows sang into guts. Teeth flew, bodies fell limp on the ground. And something grew, an invisible presence was next to me - aiding me, cutting - swirling - thrusting.

A sword appeared out of nowhere - but this time a friendly one - a shadow was next to me, giving me strength, covering me up.

Blood boiled in my veins... neverending chant of destruction and death... my hands were tied... I'm trapped again... NOOOOOOOOO!

"KIYA, kiya... please wake up..."

NERO? My eyesight cleared, the red mist of my berserk rage slowly drifted away and I noticed, he was holding my hands. I heaved a sigh and then it dawned on me that everything was over - we were united again.
