Onni tossed and turned in his bed, his emotional muttering surfacing every few minutes....

Onni found himself on a battlefield.. armor gleaming, and sword in hand. He saw a tide of enemies upon him, hesitatingly bringing his blade up to defend himself, he cut wave after wave of enemies down... the sudden tide of enemies soon made him lose contact with reality...

"Who's behind this? Why dares to send an army upon us?" He moves forward, shoving aside the enemies - Robed warriors, wearing the symbol of a spiked gauntlet holding spiked arrows.

'Hmph. Worshipers of Hextor, no doubt.' Onni thought to himself as he brandishes his sword and cleaved himself a path. IHe continued to cleave through the charging enemies, before I was seized by them.

"Hey, what, let me go!" I shouted, but they couldn't hear me... or they didn't listen. Whatever the case, I was thrown onto the ground, in a ring, surrounded by worshipers of Hextor... a cold voice cackled out at me, and the familiarity of it chilled my bones.

"Well well, so the Finale Knight has come at last..."

Pat of me didn't want to look up, to know who waited for me.. but the other part knew. I looked up.. and I stared as, clad in leather, the symbol of Hextor evident, Hoshi walked up to me, with a sadistic, yet strangely loving smile on her lips.

"Aw.. what is it, my knight in shining armor? Did my army handle you too roughly? Don't worry, you'll no longer hurt soon enough..." she giggled to herself, and the sound that once filled me with joy now wiped that joy out with fear.

"H-hoshi! You don't have to do this! There's a chance to change?"

"Oh, but my beloved Faitayuu.. you misunderstand... I want to do this, so we can be together.. together beyond even the confines of this world. This pitiful mortal realm.... can't you understand that?" She crouches down to my kneeling form, curiosity in those eyes...

those bright eyes that once held light, but now contain darkness.

"Hoshi... please.. don't do th-"

A sigh. "Beloved Faitayuu...they told me you would act this way, be so unfaithful as to deny us eternal love beyond the mortal plane." She held my chin, raising it. "They wanted me to brainwash you.. to destroy you so you would conform to them..."

Close to my ear now, a whisper. "I told them I knew better ways than mind control to bring you to me." She leaned and kissed me, and my mind went blank as I remembered her loving embrace, forgetting everything for a moment.

She pulled me up, and pulled me closer to her embrace.. "Come, Faitayuu.. you understand now, don't you...?" A pleased grin on her face

I embraced her, hugging her close to me... it all seemed so clear, what she was saying.. eternal love wouldn't be so bad...

A flash of something, beyond my eyes. "What was that?"

"What was what, my love? You seem to be hallucinating.. there's no one in this circle but us two lovers."

A flash of movement, even as she pulled me closer into her clutches. I payed little attention to it, preparing to kiss Hoshi and seal my fate forever with hers...

That's when I saw the faint image of the Dark Dragon Lord behind her.

'A ruse!' I though, twisting out of Hoshi's grip... she looked at me sadlt, with anger, before Van'dalgyon materialized, curling around her.

"What did I tell you, little Alice... the knight took your heart and broke it. He doesn't deserve to live."

Hoshi's frown deepened, her look souring... I watched on in fear as the Dark Dragon Lord continued.

"Hurt him, my lady of retribution, my Lady Nemesis... hurt him with who you truly are, hurt him like he hurt you!"

A raise of a hand, a chanting of demonic words, her face distraught with heartbreak... I braced myself for the worst....

And I bright light came around me, Van'dalgyon and Hoshi looking on in awe.

I am Neo-Parshath, the Sky Paladin, the force of judgement. I looked upon the ground and saw many evil beings, along with Van'dalgyon. I struck hard and fast killing many, the blonde haired one fled, as they came around me.

I struck with all the fight I had in me, this strange power overtaking me... was this my Grand Finale? A transformation into something? A paladin of the skies. Judgement upon the wicked... destroy the blonde-headed woma- no! Not Hoshi, I won't kill her!

I grew stronger asa more of the evil ones fell, and took to the sky, racing after the blonde - Hoshi, the voice of the host was calling her, pft, her name is a lie, she is not light, she is evil. Van'dalgyon stepped up to face me.

"You don't have the power to defeat me, Parshath. You never will!"

My mind clouded as I saw Van'dalgyon. Something was happening, words unspoken left my mouth. "Foolish you are, Dark Dragon Lord, for do you see not? The Sanctuary in the Sky appears!"

A roar of defiance, and a shout of worry. The blade in my-his arm flashed, and Van'dalgyon was scarred, driven back. I looked down on the blonde one with contempt. She had willingly served the Dark Dragon Lord, and thus she must pay. I dove for her... and yet I hesitated. The host was not willing to kill the woman he called Hoshi. He doesn't understand.

I dove for Hoshi, tears in her eyes, backing up as my blade glinted in the fading sunlight. I wanted to deliver judgeme-no! I didn't! What was going on? Why couldn't I stop! Hoshi!

----------------------

Onni murmurs the last part aloud as he dreams.. before bolting upright, clamming and sweaty.

Hoshi.... Hoshi...

He looks around wildly, looking for Hoshi... when he sees she's asleep, his fears are faintly reassured. He gasps for air, like a drowning man finally come up for air.

Hoshi....

Onni sits there, scared, panting, and clammy. The desire to sleep has left him completely, as he readjusts himself to look over Hoshi's sleeping figure. He reaches out to touch her hair, being so gentle he can't be felt.

...I will never let that happen to us, Hoshi.. never in my life will I, if I can help it.

Onni, however, does not sound confident. He sounds meek and scared, like a child trying to stand up against a great bully. He sits upright in his bed, just staring at the window, as he waits for dawn to approach and his love to awaken.
