The Prince of Time: Chapter 23

“NO!!!” I ran towards James. He was bleeding badly. I shook my head. No this can’t be happening, It just can’t. Tears started to fall down from my eyes.

“James! Don’t leave me! I thought you we’re going to the Fireworks show?” I tried healing him but due to my healing powers being weak it didn’t help. I looked around looking for Thymos. I need to kill him. I need to …

I drew my bow and arrows then aim it at times but before I can even shoot someone stab me on the back. I looked behind and saw a boy with blonde hair. I knew instantly that he was a son of Hyperion due to the glow that seems to radiate from his body.

“You’re just like you’re father. A dirty fighter, You should just die! “ I grab my knie and I started attacking him. He keeps on dodging my attack. Put then he run out of options to run. I was just about to stab him when he started crying.

“Don’t kill me! I wanna live longer!” I lower my knife. What am I doing? I’m just as bad as Thymos if I kill this kid. James wouldn’t like that.

“Go, run away now. Son of Hyperion. I am not like the monster you’re father has raised. “ As I saw the boy run away I smiled. I scan the area. It was in total chaos. I began to run to Thymos. I need to defeat him. Not because of revenge but because he made this peaceful place a war zone.

“Child of Night, here to take you’re revenge?”

I didn’t answer him, I just attacked with all my power. Thymos, being the Prince of Time dodge all my attacks as if he was reading my mind. As I continue attacking he keeps on smiling. I didn’t notice him drew his weapon until I was hit by it.

I coughed out blood. I was surprise I wasn’t dead yet. I looked up and saw him smiling his creepy smile.

“Why ..Why didn’t..you killed..me?”

“I decided it’s fun to play with you for a while before I kill you” He raised his weapon then as he was about to hit me the boy I saved a while ago saved me and intercept it with his weapon. He looked at me straight in the eye.

“I forgot to say Thank You.” I smiled, I grab my bow and arrows. As Thymos was too busy to fight the boy I aim at where his heart should be. I let go of the arrow. It hit him but it didn’t do anything.

“Impossible.”
