He finally made up his mind. He'd strike at the gathering. The one time the King gets out of his damned castle. True... Security will be thick, but hey, he's one of them... He'll find a way. He's sure he will. He has too...
-
Quietly he prepares himself for the day. The day...
It's an advantage, really, to be part of the King's guard. At least now he doesn't have to hide his weapons. He can wear them in plain sight and nobody, nobody, would react to it...
-
He waits in his room until it is time. Waits. Alone. And perhaps a little bit nervous. But ready as he'll ever be. Accepting his fate. His fate to, probably, die. Today. But not alone. He'll make sure he won't die alone today...
"Rafael..."
The name escapes him. And he wishes that his brother was right here with him. If only for the small comfort of being there...
-
He marches with his fellow guards, out of the palace, through the gates. Blinking, just once, when the sun catches his eyes.
The King is walking in front of them, surrounded by his Magicians.
It has stunned him with surprise, really, when he found out they were all such fools. They couldn't find the secrets and plans hidden in his mind while they were so powerful. After all, they managed to erase his brother...
-
He sets himself in position when the King enters on the stage. His position, right behind the King. He couldn't have planned it more perfect himself. Without moving he looks around. Scanning the area, scanning the people. He immediately finds his mother, of course. And Nelly and Timmy. And their mother. Sees the hurt and sad looks on their faces. And the fear... So much fear.
-
Alex is about to make his move when he catches Nelly's eyes on him. Looking aside he sees how she quickly bows her head again. Scared. Of him.
For a second he closes his eyes. It hurts...
He keeps on looking at her. Wondering why he just doesn't move on. Wondering why he waits...
She's looking at him again. Nervous. But not looking away.
-
His eyes narrow when he sees the sunlight reflecting on Nelly's ring. And once again he stops his intention to move forward and act.
He should have notice she had the ring again. It means... It might mean...
She looks up again, once more looking at him. And at the moment the radiation spread... Surrounding her. It's just like when Rafael was erased...
-
He looks aside, sees the King standing up, eyes wide open, looking at the girl. Of course he knows who Nelly is. Of course he remembers.
"Nelly what are you doing?"
The panic in her mother's voice. And this time Alex does move forward.
"Nelly. Run."
He knows she won't...
-
"Nelly."
He bites his lip when he hears the voice. And in a couple of seconds he's off the stage, almost running towards her. Strange how he seems to be able to move normally while the others seem to be doing everything in slow motion.
"Nelly."
She looks at him. Not surprised. Not scared anymore.
"It's time."
"It is indeed. He's coming back..."
Alex smiles. His heart beating wildly in his chest.
-
"I've missed him."
"So did I."
The light is fainting and a soft whisper escapes her. "Rafael... You're back"
He laughs, taking her hand in his.
"I am indeed."
Time is moving again. People start to remember again. The Magicians on their knees. And the King... For the first time ever, he looks scared.
-
He moves forward. Wanting nothing more but to hug his brother. His older brother. Finally back.
He flinches when he sees the cold and angry look on Rafael's face. Flinches when he sees his brother raise his arm.
"You!"
He can't react. And it surprises him when Rafael suddenly hugs him. Telling him he's a fool and asking how and... He's warm and alive and he's back.
