Ebony Wings: Chapter 32

Chapter 32

Aidan

Lucian ducked as Darius's sword swung in front of him, while Aidan raised his Glaive and plunged it into Darius's shoulder. Payback.

Aidan stepped back as Lucian swung his hammer and in feat of superhuman strength, Darius went flying a few feet back.

Aidan turned to the older boy as Lucian wiped the blood of his hammer. Was it Aidan or was that blood golden?

Lucian was wearing a winter coat all buttoned up, jeans and boots. Somehow his black clothing only helped to make his white blond hair whiter, making it almost snow white. It was quite unnerving, Aidan was too used to seeing Theresa's hair that seemed more like light that had been molded into strands of hair.

"Pay attention Arman." Lucian ordered as Darius started to get up.

Aidan also tried not to focus on the fact that both Lucian and Darius had called him Arman. Aidan knew that name from his last episode, that name along with Alder. He didn't want another 'episode' where he started to question who he was.

Darius stood up and continued to smile a crooked smile.

"So Nouri, seeing as you're still alive, I'm guessing that you haven't told him yet." Darius said blissfully.

Lucian refused to make a sound.

"And what about you Arman? Do you remember our endless conflict? The fights that have lasted a thousand years? Do you?" Darius took a step closer to him and Lucian protectively stepped in front of Aidan. "Do you remember when I plunged this sword in you chest and watched the life drain from your eyes? And after that your beloved cursed me; cursed us, to repeat the same cycle over and over again until one of us is destroyed completely?!"

Darius turned to Lucian.
