Looking down at the girl Kronos ground his teeth while he thought 'How the hell did she get here !?!?' letting his emotions take control he lunged forward shooting a massive bolt of energy at her smirking she slapped it away from her sending it flying a few yard away blowing up with the force of a grenade it sent up small chunks of earth and plant life. Continuing his attack Kronos began to turn around and threw a round house kick at her trying to hit her face yawning she ducked under the kick and then she delivered a kick upwards into Kronos catching him in the gut being thrown a few yard up into the air Kronos coughed up a few droplets of blood. Falling back to the ground he felt his head swimming from the vertigo trying to spread his ethereal wings he suddenly felt a presence behind him turning he saw the girl with blood red and black wings above him waving at him before she punched him in the middle of his back sending him crashing into the ground.

Pushing himself up Kronos couldn't believe he was losing to her and how weak his was looking up he saw the girl crouching in front of him yawning she said "So can we go now I thought you'd be fun but...........your boring like REALLY boring and EXTREMLY weak, no come with me." not under standing why but at that statement Kronos felt rage sweep across his mind yelling he fire a blast of magic from his mouth catching the girl by surprise and sending her flying back a few yards landing roughly she looked up to see the man's body glowing a deep purple and another set of wings sprout from his back and was holding a silver glaive with an obsidian blade "So that's why he's looking for you."

(Outside arena)

"WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE !!!" yelled General Obsidian who was staring at his son who was bleeding out on the field while two fallen had a death brawl around him one was the challenger Kronos who had just grown two more sets of wings part way through the match and was now holding a massive glaive that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere while the other was a small girl with blood red and black wings who were a frilly dress turning he shouted at the queen letting his rage cloud his judgment shocking all who were in the room "JUST WHY WAS MY SON DUELING A FALLEN AND HOW ARE THERE ANY LEFT !!!!"

"General Obsidian you'll do your best to watch your language and as for why your son was dueling a fallen was because he has been attending this school for the past few months, he was trying to court the young Ms. Heartstrings WHO already knew about who he was, and as for the fallen I'm just as surprised as you are I thought Kronos was the last of his kind." Lumina said calmly staring the general directly in his eyes causing him to shrink back and bow turning to the monitor she watched as her nephew chopped off one of the fallen's arms causing her to cry out "Now I just hope he gains control of his power before he does something that he'll regret."

(Arena)

Grabbing the end of the glaive Kronos swung upwards at the girl causing her to flip back wards barely missing the blade she was losing blood fast. He was strong and fast, the faster she came at him he seemed to over come her speed with his within seconds growing stronger then her smiling she realized why that man had sent her laughing she thought 'I was nothing more than a sacrificial pawn in his game !' but she wouldn't give up she'd take this mongrel down and back to her employer even if he was an inch from death. Yelling Kronos felt power surge through he and all of it was coming from the gem the voice had told him to win the fight and he wouldn't come close to losing the fight with this power "THATS ENOUGH NOW BOY KNOCK HER OUT IF YOU CONTINUE YOU'LL DIE !!!!" the voice said ignoring it Kronos charge forward at the girl shoving the glaive forward he aimed to take the other arm when..............multiple injuries sprouted across his body and he began to cough up a massive amount of blood forcing him to fall to the ground "I WARNED YOU BOY NOW YOU'LL HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE CONSIQUENCES........BUT I CAN'T ALLOW YOU TO DIE JUST YET."

Suddenly a bright light filled the arena blinding the two fallen looking up Kronos noticed a young looking women standing before him and the girl. She had long flowing black hair, her eyes were a deep crimson with no pupils that Kronos could see she had sharp canine like teeth, her skin was a pale color almost ivory in color, she wore black Greek armor with a silver tunic underneath looking down she said "NOW BOY I'LL FINISH THIS FIGHT AND WE'LL CONTINUE THIS DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW YOU'LL USE MY POWER !" extending her hand she summoned the glaive catching it she spun it around sighing with happiness she said "SO MEDUSA YOU WISH TO CONITUE THIS FIGHT ?" giggle the little girl said "Of course not Cerberus you win this fight so i'll gladly go with you to-" she was cut off by Cerberus rushing forward knocking her to the ground holding the blade against her neck continuing her sentence "-the queen after all I could never best you in combat !"

"OF COURSE NOT BUT YOU TRYING TO GAIN MERCY THROUHGH MY PRIDE SHALL NOT WORK I'VE GROWN ALOT SINCE THE LAST TIME WE DUELED."

"Of course you have now shall we be going."

"Yes we shall be going Cerberus please take care of my nephew I'll take care of this girl." Lumina said standing quickly bowing Cerberus held her head low while medusa stared at the queen dumbstruck about how she got past her barrier. Waving her hand Lumina, Onyx, and Medusa disappeared standing up Cerberus turned to the young boy laying in the dirt slowly bleeding but not enough to worry about death...........yet reaching down she healed his wound and said "MASTER NYX NEVER MENTIONED HOW STUBBORN YOU WERE PUP."

(Three hours later)

Waking up Kronos winced in pain looking down he noticed that his vision was slightly lopped sided but from what he could see he would be in the infirmary for awhile both arms were covered in bandages, one of his legs was in a brace, and he could fell more bandages around his torso sighing he laid his head back down looking to the ceiling trying to sit up he heard a voice say "I WOULDN'T DO THAT PUP." turning his head fully to the left he was now able to see a women sitting by his bed reading a history book gasping he tried jumping up only to find he couldn't move "THE DOCTORS SAID YOU SHOULDN'T BE MOVING TO THINK THAT MASTER NYX INTRUSTED ME TO YOU..........BUT SHE HAS NEVER BEEN WRONG ABOUT HER CHOICES."

"Who are you !?!?"

"MY NAME IS CERBERUS AND I'M BOUND TO YOU BY THAT SOUL GEM."

"But you should be dead if your soul is in this gem."

"DOES MY NAME NOT RAISE ANY AWERNESS FOR YOU BOY I AM CERBERUS I CANNOT DIE AND I AM NOT ALIVE."

"So what are you then ?"

"SOMETHING INBETWEEN BUT I'VE NEVER REALLY CARED TO FIND OUT NOW YOUR MATE IS COMING."

"Mate ?" Kronos questioned when it was answered Lyra came barreling in tears coming down her face she landed on Kronos causing him pain to flare up across his body "L-l-lyra I'm okay c-c-could you get off me ?"

"NO YOU BIG IDIOT YOU HAD ME WORRIED !" she cried sighing Kronos raised a hand and began to run it through her hair turning to Cerberus he raise motioned for her to leave nodding she turned to a black mist and floated toward Kronos and disappeared into his gem "I'll never get used to that."

"WHO CARES ABOUT THAT WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY TO ME !?!?"

"I-I-I-I-I-I'm s-s-s-sorry and I'll buy you anything you want ?"

"That's sounds good but YOUR NOT OFF THE HOOK JUST YET."

(Later that night)

Kronos laid in the hospital bed with a small head ache Lyra had givin him a tongue lashing that he would never forget then after that her father and mother came in and began to question him after about two hours of that her father gave him his seal of approval but with a warning "I have friends in high places and I can make sure your life will be a living hell if you hurt my daughter." which scared the shit out of Kronos so he promise to never hurt her. Then his aunt and cousins came in asking to talk to Cerberus and him together once she showed up naked of all things they began to question her that lasted for about three hours and after that it all ended and now Kronos was in a room by himself with a naked Cerberus next to him sighing he said "So why aren't you wearing clothes ?"

"I'M A HELLHOUND THAT CAN TAKE MANY FORMS SO I'M USED TO BEING NAKED I ONLY WEAR CLOTHES AT FORMAL EVENTS OR ARMOR WHEN I'M IN BATTLE."

"Yes I understand but I'm a guy and your a pretty attractive women."

"AND WHAT WOULD MS. HEARTSTRINGS THINK IF SHE HEARD THIS ?"

"Never mind remain naked just forget what I said and please where clothes when we're around her and my friends."

"UNDERSTOOD PUP."

"Why do you keep calling me pup ?" Kronos asked looking at the women noticing her deep red eyes staring into his looking down she said "SO YOU DON'T REMEMBER ME ?"

"Remember you why should I...........wait your the women that watch over me when mom wasn't around."

"SO YOU DO REMEMBER ?"

"But she was tan like really tan where as your pale and her hair was-"

"MY GODNESS SOMETHINGS NEVER DO CHANGE PUP YOU NEVER DID LISTEN TO ME I CAN SHAPE SHIFT WHICH MEANS."

"You have many forms."

"THERE YOU GO I SHOULD GIVE YOU A TREAT LIKE I USED TO." Cerberus said smiling at the boy as he flushed and looked away from her body realizing he was staring "IF ME BEING NAKE BOTHERS YOU I COULD ALWAYS WEAR MY TUNIC...........EVEN THOUGH WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG WE USED TO BATHE TOGETHER."

"What I don't remember that and YES PLEASE CLOTHES NOW !!!"

"HEHE YOU REALLY HAVEN'T CHANGED PUP........ITS GOOD TO BE TAKING CARE OF YOU AGAIN."

(Four days later)

Walking up the stairs to his room Kronos opened the door and laid down sighing as he felt the comfortable mattress sink under his weight looking up he began to ponder what the girl was talking about during their fight. Shaking his head he began to stand up when he heard a voice say "Soon my brother we'll take this world from those so called gods and bring the world into a new dark age."

"Who said that ?"

"Soon brother soon we'll be together again and we can take our revenge now sleep." the voice said whirling around Kronos came face to face with a hooded figure stopping he stared into the black mass where the head should have been he felt his body go numb raising a hand the figure brushed a thumb over his cheek and before Kronos pass out he heard a the voice again but with a feminine tone "Its good to see you again little brother." then Kronos's world went black and his head hit the pillow.
