Kane snapped out of his fear and stepped in front of the girl. "What do you mean by that? What did we do to you?" he asked angrily. The man shrugged his shoulders. "Nothing at all; rules are rules, and she knows that. Now then, it’s time for you to say farewell to this world," the man replied as he started running towards them.

"She got you involved; blame her for your death, boy!" Kane took a defensive stance. "Stay behind me," he said as he got ready to defend her. "Get out of the way; you will die if you fight him," she said as she pushed him back. "Stand back."

Kane angrily argued, "How are you going to fight? You don’t have a weapon; you’re the one that's gonna get yourself ki..." He stopped as he saw claws come out of the tips of her fingers. She started to charge at the man. "I won’t let you harm him or have the blade," she yelled. "You’re going to fight me, Kitty? I’m going to enjoy this," the man said as he swung at her with incredible force.

The girl jumped over him, dodging the hammer; she landed on the ground and slashed his back with her claws. "Ugh, you witch!" he yelled as he swung backward, catching her off guard. She took the hit and flew straight towards Kane, landing on the ground by his feet. "Miss, are you....." he stopped; she coughed up blood.

"The sword," she whispered. "Get the sword and run." Kane looked at her. "That's not happening; you need medical hel....." He stopped as she grabbed his hand and looked at him smiling. "Just get the sword and run; I'll be alright," she whispered. Kane looked into her eyes. "I'll be back for you." He turned around and grabbed the sword.

"FINALLY," he heard a voice in his head and blanked out. His body went limp while still holding the sword in his hand. "What do you think you’re doing with that sword, boy?" The man said as he started to charge at Kane. "Someone could get hurt, you know." He swung his hammer. "Now Die!" The hammer stopped as if it hit a solid wall. Shocked, he saw Kane's hand had blocked it with his bare hand.

"WHAT! Impossible, how did you?" He tried to move the hammer away, but it would not budge. “Let go of my hammer, you brat.” Kane looked at him. “A brat, huh?” he replied in a malicious voice. “I don’t like that tone you have. Maybe I should get rid of your little toy and teach you a lesson!” Kane squeezed and shattered the hammer.

"What are you going to do now, big man?" Kane asked, laughing. The man looked at Kane’s eyes; his iris was slowly turning black, his pupils turning blood red. Kane swung the blade in the blink of an eye and cut the remainder of the hammer's pole about an inch away from the man’s fingers. "What is this? Who are you?" The man said as he jumped back to get some distance.

Kane lowered the sword. "Who am I, you ask?" Kane replied as he vanished, leaving nothing but a dust trail. The man looked around but couldn’t find him. He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked. Kane leaned in towards the man's ear. "I'm your worst nightmare," he whispered into his ear as he stabbed the man through the chest.

"Impossible," the man said as he dropped to the ground. Kane swung the sword downwards, flinging the blood off the blade, started walking slowly towards the girl on the ground. "That's impossible," she said. "How did he get so much power?" she struggled to say, coughing up more blood. She watched Kane as he got closer until he was right on top of her.

"How did..." she stopped as he brought the sword up ready to swing. "Because of you, I'm free!!!" He said maliciously. She looked at him. "What do you mean?" She asked as she looked into his eyes. "No, you’re not Kane. What have you done to him?" He looked back at her. "Oh, he is still here, but he can’t see or hear you. Now I’m afraid it’s time for you to die." He said as he swung the sword.

"NO," she screamed. The blade stopped mere centimeters from her neck; she looked up and saw what looked like severe pain in his face. "AAAAAAAAAAAA" he screamed. "NO, leave me alone!!!" He jumped back grabbing his head. "I'M FREE, even if you put me back, I will get out again, and I WILL have this body!!!" He went silent and fell to the ground. He opened his eyes and stood up, tossing the sword to the side, and looked at the man’s body.

"What the hell just happened?" he asked now looking at his hands, then quickly realized something. "Where’s that girl?" he asked as he looked behind him and spotted her. "Are you alright?" he asked as he ran to her and knelt by her side seeing more than just her coughing up blood. "You’re seriously hurt; let me take you to the hospital." he went to pick her up. "NO. I'll be fine!" she said as she tried to get up but fell back down grabbing at her side in pain.

"No, you’re not, now hold still," he said forcefully as he picked her up and put her on his back hearing what he thought was ribs grinding together. "Fine," she said in pain. "On one condition." he looked at her. "Put the sword in the bag and take it with us." He nodded and walked over to the sword, picking it up. "What is this thing exactly?" he asked as he placed it in the bag and looked at her, noticing that she was unconscious.

"I'll ask another time; first thing is first. I need to get you to the hospital." he placed the bag under his arm and ran towards the hospital.
