Yuu looked over at Relic and mentally sighed. She knew that Relic had her soul, but she knew that she would do if Relic told them where the king was. To be honest, she really wanted to kill the king if he hurt York. Maybe the idea was selfish revenge, but she would not let him get away with it if the he did hurt York. And afterwords she would probably be thrown in a jail or executed, there was even a possibility that she wouldn't get her soul. But she didn't care, she didn't really need a soul. Sure, death might be a scary thing to think about; but she already had her mind made. If Relic told them, she would go after the king. If he didn't, she would get her soul back and hunt the king down.
(OCC?: What?! Oh.... ^-^" I'm sorry...)

Before Relic was able to speak York felt his power swell within him. It felt good! He ran at the helmeted man and threw his fists together, "you ate our souls you bastard!" Fat bubbles inside the boy and his teeth were absorbed by his gums and two thick teeth appeared and he was a full sized hippo! The beast charged at Relic and went to bite down but he grabbed each part of the beasts mouth and held the mouth open before York's powerful jaws crunched down shattering the bones in Relic's arms and tossed him aside. The man crumpled in the corner before slowly beginning to stand, his arms beginning to heal already.

(OCC: let Relic post before you do please.)

The helmet was damaged by the force for York's attack. The mans arms healed, but they were still in pain. The man placed his hands on the sides of the helmet twisting a few metal pieces and lifted the helmet slowly. This brought everything around, this all made sense. The obsessions, the box of leeches, the soulless knights tongue less words. Relic wasn't a person! Just a Mage kings drawing, drawing of a helmet. Giving whoever wore it the thoughts, regeneration skill, and resurrection powers as the fallen Mage King Usowel.

The busted helmet fell to the ground and split in two as it hit the ground. A tattoo covered half the mans face. A tattoo of a rhino head, and only one person had a tattoo like this. "Hello Ramsley," Emperor Haru said, his voice unrestricted by the helmets magic. All the abuse, all the wickedness, this was the climax of the Emperor evils. Haru had been Relic, this whole time! Found the helmet on his three year travels in the Blade Lands after countless years if research. Anyone could be Relic... But it had to be him, "how's the disgrace of the Far Horn been?"

Yuu gripped her spear when she was ready to stab Relic in the chest after York threw him. Though she felt herself hesitate when Relic began to take off his helmet. She didn't know what to expect under, her best guess was a soulless man himself. Though her eyes widened when the helmet was finally pulled off and split into two. She bit her lip softly and narrowed his eyes at him. "I wouldn't be the one calling York a disgrace." She said coldly to the King. "If anything, I find that you are the disgrace." She told him, and it was the truth. Taxes were higher then ever seen he became King and he treated dwarfs horribly. And that was only to name a few things. "It's obvious that York will become a far better King then you." She said with a small smirk. She was maybe acting cocky, but how could she not? Not only was she telling the truth, but she got the chance to piss him off before he died. Though she wanted York to say it was okay to injure him before she did so.

The blubber boiled down and Rams was himself again, "I was dead..." He fell to his knees, this probably hurt him more then when his soul energy was being sucked away by the leeches. "You had what you wanted, the kingdom to yourself..." Nothing made sense, if all the Emperor wanted was him dead and all he was greedy for was the Far Horn then this didn't make sense. "Or are you just trying to torches me? Was seeing me dead not enough for you??" Rage filled inside of York and he realized how he had to kill his father, with his own symbol. "Me dead wasn't what what you wanted, you have to do it yourself or your victory isn't complete is it???"

"You are smarter then you look, and act," Haru yelled laughing. "You took Sophia from me, so I will take something from you!" The man rushed at York knowing he hadn't recharged yet, he grabbed his throat and pinned him against the wall! "Now you can die! I now allow you to gag and squirm your way to the darkest depths of the underworld!" The man who was once thought to be Relic turned to the girl and blocked her probable attack with his left hand, keeping Ramsley suspended above the floor against hard stone brick with his right.

Yuu was utterly surprised at the King. He really just stole his son's soul.... because he stole some woman named Sophia. This was obviously none of her business, but what the hell?! You don't take your child's life, even worse his soul! She knew that the King was selfish now. Not only was the King planning to kill his own son, but he was so bent on revenge that he blamed his son for stealing Sophia. She couldn't even stand looking at this man anymore. She gripped her spear and quickly tried to attack him as soon as he started strangling York, but he easily blocked that. Yuu cursed under her breath as she quickly grabbed her knife and began stabbing him all over his arms and sides. Pretty much anything that she could stab, she stabbed. "Let him go!" She yelled, she was worried now.

Without the helmet he no longer had the healing powers that he once had as Relic, "dumb wench!" She got about three or four cuts in before he dropped an out of breathe Ramsley and attacked Yuu. First he grabbed her arm with his right arm, because his left was wounded, and hoisted her up into the air. He dropped her for a moment before bringing his foot up to make contact with her rib cage! This cracked a bone or two as it sent her flying across the room. But he wasn't done with her yet, he picked up the spear and charged at the crumpled girl! Bent on killing her now once and for all so he could return to claim his victory over York!

Yuu was happy that he let go of York, but was now being lifted in the air. She let out a cry of pain as she flew across the room and hit the wall. She squirmed in pain as she felt intense pain in her chest. It hurt to even move right now, but if she lost now... it would be horrible. No afterlife and she didn't even get to kill him. She looked up and saw that he was coming after her with a spear. She had to think quick. When the King was about to end her with the spear, she quickly used her speed to get out of the way. That was her plan so far at least, she would continue to dodge his attacks until a better plan came to mind.

The spear splintered on the wall sending wood and metal flying. The man turned to see his son still on the floor, "good." He laugh and he got in a fighting position towards Yuu. "Ready to die girlie!" He laughed and his rhino tattoo began to glow on his face! He slammed the ground after interlocking his fingers into a sort of flesh and bone hammer. Rock and brick tore up and sent a small tremor rumbling at the girl bursting in her face with broken tile and jagged rocks! "THIS IS THE POWER OF THE RHINO!" The palace began to crumble all around them, this was exactly the victory Haru had been hoping for!

Yuu widened her eyes at the small tremor and quickly covered her face. She cried out in pain when it hit her and pulled a piece of broken tile out of her shoulder and barely dodged the pieces of broken debris falling. She looked at York and saw that he would be alright. But she needed to wake him up so nothing would crush him. She hurried over to York even though her wounds felt like fire and began to shake him. "York! York! Wake up!" Yuu tried. She quickly picked you up and moved you away from a piece of falling debris. "Damn it!" She yelled as she looked around. She couldn't protect York and fight the King at the same time. She looked around and hid York away from the falling debris as she quickly turned to face the King so she could be ready for his next attack.

The Emperor watched the girls futile attempt to hide his son from him, "stupid girl." By the time she turned to be ready for the next attack he was already too close and back handed her with his enhanced strength knocking her out of the broken window. He laughed at her seeing how she had just barely grabbed onto the ledge, "you humor me!" The Emperor walked over to the window and lifted his boot to bring down on her hand. This would indeed send her falling to her doom, "you put up a good fight, but now it is time to roll over and..."

A thick rhino horn ripped threw his chest, you could see it poking out of his rib cage having been stabbed from the back. He was lifted slowly... "Ramsl... Ra... York?" The father couldn't even say his own sons name, how could he be betrayed like this, he could do whatever he wanted, he was the king! But York was just a, just a... Without the helmet he couldn't heal. He was bleeding out and fast, darkness closed in as he heard his sons final words.

York had gone into Rhino form and stabbed his father in the back, killing him. Why you ask? Because his father was inherently evil and only two foreseeable endings could come about after this change in power. He would either be put to death for slaying the Emperor or he would be made king and worshipped all over the Far Horn. Either way it didn't matter, Harry U. York the tyrant of the West was dead at last!

Rhino York tilted his head to the side a bit and let the bloody king fall, watching downward as his remains splattered on the earthy courtyard of the palace. The beast turned back into Ramsley and he extended a hand to Yuu, palace still crumbling around them. He pulled her up, "Thank you..." These words could not describe the gratitude he had for her at that single moment and how he would never forget her. But as rocks continued to fall the palace imploded throwing the two into the aftermath of Haru's tertiary.

The dust final cleared after a few minute and York found himself standing over the rubble of the east throne room. "Yuu!?!" He called, "Are you ok?!?!?!"

Yuu cursed under her breath when she saw how close King/Relic was. She stumbled backwards after he back handed her and she felt herself falling. She widened her eyes when she saw that she was falling out the window. She quickly took hold of the ledge and looked up at the King. 'Damn him...' She thought to herself as she tried to think of a way out of this. Before the King could send Yuu to her ultimate death, something large stabbed the King. Yuu felt herself smile as she saw York in his Rhino form as he pushed the King out the window. "Thanks." She said as she took his hand and got back inside. Though the palace was coming apart. This entire room was filled with smoke before it finally cleared. Yuu heard York calling, but couldn't answer. She was under a large piece of the ceiling. The only thing sticking out was her head and one arm. It was slowly crushing her body and she shook in pain. She buried her face in the ground and coughed as she tried weakly to get from under it.

He finally saw her... "Yuu!!!" He rushed to her side, he wanted to help her but didn't know how. And if he just rushed into a gorilla form to try and lift the piece of crushed ceiling then she might be squashed further by hidden items under the rubble that he couldn't see. He had no choice really but to watch her cough and struggle underneath it, "Yuu, I'm so sorry!" He took her hand as tears rushed down his face, "I never meant for anything like this to happen. If he had just turned into an eagle and waited for his father to kick her out the window he could have caught her and escaped. But he was so blinded by his will to get revenge he had basically killed her himself.

Yuu felt the piece of rubble slowly gain more weight. The weight was so much that she started to cry, and she hasn't done that since she thought York was going to die. She coughed and held his hand tightly. She could hear him blaming himself, she couldn't let him think that. She had to force herself to talk. "D-d-don't.. be so stupid...it...it w-wasn't your...your... fault.." She muttered. She felt the weight shift more, casing her to cry out in pain and struggle for more breaths, she could barely breath anymore.

He couldn't let her her be in the pain she was in, but he wouldn't put her in more pain by grinding her bones and flesh apart by trying to lift the heavy ceiling fragment. He pulled his shirt off as he had before for her, balling it up and shoving it yonder her head as a pillow. Then he pinned her free arm above her head and kissed her softly on the lips before placing his free hand over her mouth. He plugged her nose and covered her mouth so she couldn't breath. Suffocation was better then slowly bleeding out under bone crushing rubble. "Good bye my good friend..."

She had been the only friend he had ever truly had and now he had to kill her so she wouldn't suffer anymore. Life was a cruel place, and this was the moment that decided what kind of king he would be. A dark rooting plant of hate and anger settled in his heart. Anger at a fallen tyrant that would constantly eat him alive, but for now that anger could be seen dripping down his face. "Yuu were the greatest thing that ever happened to me......."

A little ways away the two broken pieces of Relic's helmet began to spark with magic, this magic forged the shattered helmet fragments into two daggers. The Resurrection Daggers as they would be called, the Relic Blade and the Giver Blade. One of the knifes could steal a soul and the other could restore life but only when used at the exact same time. Unfortunately irony was cruel and not only had York have not discover yet the power of these newly forged weapons, but without a soul Yuu couldn't be saved anyway. The blades were not fully as strong as Relic had been or the tyrant Emperor Haru had been, Yuu would die a casualty of Ramsley York's descent into darkness...

Yuu continued to cry out and struggle, feeling an immense amount of pain from the rubble crushing her. It hurt, that was all she could think at the moment. She looked up at York slightly confused as he put his shirt under her head and kisses her. What was he doing? That's when York pinned her arm and covered get mouth while plugging her nose. It made sense now. Though she couldn't help but to be afraid. She had no soul, where was she going to go? She began crying at these thoughts. She was going to end up alone in the end, what was going to happen? She began to struggle weakly, though already her vision started to get blurry. At least one of them came out victorious... soon, her struggle began to get weaker and weaker until she was frozen still. Finally gone.

Before her eyes were set into a permanent lifeless stare her chest glowed for a mere moment and her pupils returned to her eyes, York had no idea where her should would end up... But It had been returned to her before she faded away from this world. He stood slowly and guards arrived. The rubble made the Emperors death look like an accident, and that is why they made York the new emperor. Kind of, he still had to wait two years before he could truly take control but he would be king.

The soulless knight now had his soul back and despite his inability to speak he was still a skilled fighter. He was nick named the Silent Knight and became York's personal escort, being the only person who Ramsley trusted with the information of how his father actually died.

Years would pass and York would never forget Yuu the image of her laying there under the debee would be painted under his eye lids forever. Sculpting him differently because of it... Even with the level of trust he gave to the Silent Knight, he would never, ever share a friend again so the remainder of his child hood would be a lonely one. But even for the week or two they had spent together he would never forget.

"Yuu..."
