“So?” Raven asks, “How did it go? How did you win? Who was in the army?”
 
“Wait… I must do a dramatic pause… THEN I will continue…” Crow says, as he pauses, and continues on.

I slept like a king. They had given me a room that was great it had everything! A mini fridge, a king sized bed, a tele- okay, I'm getting too descriptive.
 
The next day we I stood in the town square, with a line of warriors. Some children, younger than I, and others almost twice my age, or older! It was scary how weak we were. But then, I gazed upon a troop of fighters who would know what they were doing.
 
They are the remains of our army from after from the dragon raid.
 
“All Right men…. boys… and women… and girls…” I said nervously, trying to sound professional, “ You are here, because you suck, and I am to make you… not suck…”
 
“We particularly don't suck sir!” one of the soldiers who were in the army says. I want up to him. He was no older than 18, and found this funny.
 
“Talking back to a superior?” I asked, appalled, and he laughed, and went less tense.
 
“You're my superior? Your just a little kid! What can you do?” the boy asked.
 
“What is your name?” I asked.
 
“Cashi `sir',” he said. He looked like a rat, and had gray eyes.
 
The person next to him yelled at him, “I'M CASHI FAG!” and the boy went serious.
 
“Fine, my real name is Ryan, yo. Ryan Deitz.”
 
“Well, `Deitz,' I'll show you what I can do,” I flipped him over, and got him in a headlock, into a move and die position. He started to cry, and his peers looked in fear. I let go, and he ran. He disappeared. I got up, and said ”Anyone else want to be a smart ass?”
 
We spent 2 months training, and some were becoming very good. I remember this is where I first saw Jewel. She had joined the army, just to see me (I think). She wasn't very good, but she was on her way up.
 
We had stopped 3 attacks, and had lost no soldiers. The last was that day.
 
We had been practicing and then, it happened. The town caught fire.
 
Your stepfather stood on the hill, and was breathing fire on the town. He had been
practicing magic, and had mastered fire. We stood in fear as the rebel army attacked as he screamed “CHARGE!!”
 
The army was composed of the missing people. They had run out of the town to join the rebels. There was my foster family, your father, everyone. Half the original town.
 
Then we saw something horrid. The dragon riders who had escaped my victory were there too.
 
The carnage then started. Our men killing theirs with their bare hands, and many other horrid things. We were using technology on each other, technology we banned from Azarath.
 
Then, I saw something that I had hoped for. A boy attacked Jewel, and I saved her. He wore a helmet, and I knocked it off.
 
Deitz.
 
I had no problem killing him. We had a grudge, but it ended with him run away, and stabbing his own team. He was afraid of me, so he had acted like he was working on an inside job. I knew he was full of shit, and I killed him with my shield.
 
-that sucks-
 
Yes.
 
Jewel ran, and I kept on fighting. We had fought until your father cam out, and faced me head on. He killed his and our men on the way over, and we faced face to face.
 
“Fucking kid. I WILL NOT BOW DOWN TO YOU!” he slammed his sword into my leg, and I fell. I crawled away, and he slammed his hand on the ground. He was stronger than he looked.
 
It was like thunder hitting the ground. Ht battlefield shook with out fight, and I was fucking afraid.
 
I ran like a child. I ran from death. I ran from nothing more than a human defect.
 
Not a boogeyman, not anything worth devoting nightmares to, nothing more than a human defect.
 
I stood up, and faced him. I withdrew his sword, and threw it to him. I then unsheathed the sword I got from killing Hiogi, and I slammed it against his.
 
“I don't want you to bow Chrono… I don't want this! I don't want you to be alive!” I kicked him in the crotch, and then I cut his arm off. He screamed.
 
“But… you… YOU CAN'T BE STRONG!” he made a leg out of the Azarath Metreon Zenthos, and a suit of armor. I did the same. We did battle, for hours, and our two sides were astonished by our fight. All of a sudden I heard a scream “ZINTHOS,” and Jewel blasted him, and then our whole side did it. His side then abandoned him,a nd ran.
 
“DIE!” I slammed my sword into his armor, and it broke. All my army blasted strength into my sword, and I used all my magic too. I fell limp because of my leg, but I went on. I thrust myself forward, and knocked him 12 feet back.
 
“NO!” he kept screaming as I stood above him. I didn't slay him. I cut his limbs off, but I didn't kill him.
 
“Bastard…” he said, as he passed out.
 
The next day, he was executed.
 
I was once again a hero, but then, we were put into peace, before I had to get away from Azarath, and I would never return.

Raven's eyes are wide. She looks at him, and he looks very sad. His face is in shadow, and she can't see his eyes.
He then looks up at her, and smiles.
 
“More ice?” he asks, and she looks down. Her icepack is completely melted.
 
“Please,” she says, sweating.
 
“All righty,” he swings up, loosely, and runs to get ice.
 
`I can't believe he did that. He killed a lot. That explains why he uses that do defeat people. He must have lost it like most veterans do,' she thinks, and he walks in, and pressed his face on hers.
 
She closes her eyes and rubs her cheeks against his, and he moves away, leaving her to fall over.
 
“Your fever has gone down.”
 
“Really?” she says, pushing herself, back onto her back. She then lays down, and looks at the clock. 5:00 PM.
 
“Wow, time flies,” Crow says, and he lies down next to her, but on top of the covers. She then moves over to him, and kisses him. He kisses her back, and she falls asleep while hovering her head over him.
 
He closes his eyes, and sits up. he walks out of the room, and looks outside. It is pitch black.
 
“I knew this would happen. I've been here too long. I need to do it soon. I must stop before they return to send me back. I've over stayed my welcome, and haven't done what I was meant to.” Crow says dramatically to himself as Raven sleeps, “It begins now. I plunge into eternal love with her soon… or else…” he sits on the couch, pondering his plans.
