Chapter 2 - Coward

He had been feeling dizzy, nauseas and every other thing that comes with butterflies in his stomach, ever since he left the room his body had been rebellious sickly and most of all fearful of something.

Run run please run he had heard that in his head too many times to keep count he did not know why but he feared he was running mad.

He had been sharpening his blunt sword turning to Viola who was merely staring at him wanting so bad to alleviate the sickening feeling of dread.

'How can he be so different from his father three years and still nothing, no noticeable improvement is he simply hopeless?....It can't be Aurelious can't sire a useless child,' she paused looking at him polish the wrong side of the blade 'Can he?'

Now he didn't hear any of that because she was saying it under her breath and at his strength he could simply not perceive it. "You know I'll be tempted to retaliate if you keep staring daggers at me Vio." He said before continuing albeit in his mind "It would be nice if you stopped making me both uncomfortable and afraid at the same time."

Viola was genuinely confused what was this boy on again "Have you lost your marbles his majesty?"

"You have no idea what I'm talking about, the morning in..."

"No I knew what you were on again but do you think you could overcome yourself let alone me?" 

"What's so special about you just some washed up commander babysitting a worthless prince." That actually made her pause.

"Is this how he thinks of himself he truly is a disgrace to his father's name and no wonder I've been hearing talks that Queen Elizabeth won't abdicate this kid has no spine." She silently thought.

"You know you should be more like your father get a bit more courage."

"The same courage that got him killed stupid bastard." Now that was a whisper he didn't think Viola would hear but unluckily for him she did how could she not she was one of the Kingdom's 72 Legendary ranked individuals standing right atop of the power structure.

"Say that again!" Viola's body tensed, grip on the hilt of her rapier tightening.

"Repeat what I didn't say anything." He panicky tried lookin for ways to run "Shit did she hear that or something."

"You really are a coward sullying your father's name do you know who he was to mankind?" She said coldly muscles contracting pressing on the ground with forces lunging to the fear stricken Auther.

Raise your sword to the left do it fast, hurry for time is against us.

For some Godforsaken reason he did not question it, that reason was Viola he did not give him time to even think.

He clumsily managed to place his sword to his left stopping the heavy blow Viola intended to deal at him. But she did not give she merely bent his elbow joint inward by hitting it with her other arm increasing the force on her sword and pushing his arm inward till a sharp tear could be heard.

All of his joints were now decommissioned.

"You are not even a drop from either your mother or father you Lascivious pig." She insulted him while he was still too stunned to move and too flustered with millions of thoughts to properly articulate himself.

"P_P_p_please don't do this I love you Viola I really do I'm sorry for all the bull..."

He was soon looking at her thighs his head firmly detached from his body, a wet patch clearly visible on her training pants.

"She gets off to killing people huh" there was a pause his strength was leaving him his world turning hazy by the minute "That bitch!"

His eyes turned from mesmerizing jade to a lifeless green
