~Red Revenge~ (Douxie x OC)

5|Missing Peace

"The Eclipse Blade is not enough to vanquish Gunmar!" I can hear the sounds of clashing blades and things being crashed into.

"Your humanity is not enough!" I can see them again and Jim's not looking too good. I knew we should have trained more.

"You are not enough! No one will survive this war unscathed!" Merlin yells. and Jim blocks his attacks with his shield.

"You're a real jerk, you know that?" Jim mentions. damn, Ive taught him well.

"We can agree on that little brother!" I support Jim from my place.

"Yes, but that doesn't make me wrong." Merlin says pushing Jim with his side blade against a bookshelf. 

"Forgive me. You leave me no choice." He says to Jim. Merlin rips of the amulet as Jim screams. 

"Merlin stop!" I plead from me stance, now trying even harder to break his spell. I watch as Jim falls to the ground without his armor, leaving him unconscious. 

"Merlin! How dare you!" I yell. My blood bowling seeing my brother hurt and unconscious on the hardwood floors of our home.

"He'll be fine." 

"No! Break this spell you've put on me this instant!" I demand still trying to break free. I'm sick of all his chains. He starts roaming the house looking for things. 

"Merlin!!" I yell again, he's ignoring me. "you coward, you give me the task of protecting your Trollhunters then, turn around and hurt Jim! You hypocrite, unchain me so may give you the punishment you've made me give to so many others!" my rage filled voice practically shakes the walls. 

"I did not want to hurt the boy, but he left me no choice. I only wish to open his eyes." He comes out of the kitchen and stands before me. Hands behind his back. Stance confident. I want to hit him where it hurts. I take a deep breath.

"Well enlighten me old man. In what way do you plan on opening his eyes?" I glare, my eyes pouring into his soul. 

"He is not enough to fight Gunmar, he needs to become something more." Is the only explanation he gives before turning back into the kitchen and going back to what he was doing.

"Let me go! Let me move from this hallway! Break this spell you have placed on me!" I demand once again.

"I never put another spell on you Azara, I simply gave you an order." He says. "You may move from your position now." 

The crushing feeling of not being able to move and of chains holding me in place vanish at the ending of his sentence.My lungs breath at a more steady pace, but my heart still races in anger. How many centuries must I live like this. Under his chains and...

I make my staff disappear with a wave of my hand, its red stone glowing as it vanishes. I walk towards the kitchen I stand in front of the counter inspecting what Merlin is doing. Making a potion of some sort? How wack is this man? I notice my brother sitting in a chair behind him. Now that I can move and protect my brother, I'll simply watch and only interfere if Jim wishes me to. I guess I'm now a spectator of this conversation.

Jim slowly starts to wake up. And I guess Merlin noticed.

"You were supposed to be my champion." Merlin states as he mixes the potion on the stove.

"You tied me up?" Jim questions, struggling in the chair.

"Im opening your eyes." 

"You're worse than Gunmar." Can't complain on that on Jim. "At least he doesn't pretend to care about the world."
