Your POV

I looked over at the seance. People were fighting Shadow Souls but what was going on in the village? I ran over to it. I gasped and saw Laurence knocked out! Aphmau and Aaron were there too. Laurence was in Shadow Knight form but then he turned back to normal. I ran over to him.

"Laurence! Laurence are you-" Started Aphmau.

"W-WHAT?! WHAT HAPPENED?!" I screamed.

"Y/N? Garroth? When did you get here?" Asked Aaron.

"AARON! A-Aron!" Shouted Aphmau.

"Calm down, I didn't deliver a blow strong enough to kill him-" Said Aaron.

"WHAT?! WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!" I screamed.

"We'll explain it later." Said Aaron, "Quickly, lets get him back to a place where he can recover. I'll carry him, lead the way, Aphmau." I stood back by Aaron and Laurence.

"Will he be okay?" I asked.

"Yeah he will. He just...is knocked out I guess." Said Aaron. We got to the Lord's house and Laurence rested in Aphmau's room. I stayed at the bedside in a chair. Aphmau was on the other side. Garroth was downstairs.

"Laurence..." I started.

"Aaron w-what did you do to him?" Asked Aphmau. Aaron explained to Aphmau. I didn't listen. I was to busy thinking.

"I'll be downstairs if you need me." Said Aaron after he explained to Aphmau.

"Aaron! Aaron wait! I-..." Started Aphmau as she walked over to the door.

"A-Aphmau? Y/N?" Asked Laurence. I looked down quickly. Laurence was awake!

"Laurence? Your awake!" Said Aphmau.

"LAURENCE! Thank goodness your okay!" I said happily.

"W-What happened..? Where am I...? Why are my arms numb...?" Asked Laurence.

"Your in my room. You transformed into your Shadow Knight form to help stop the Shadow Souls from breaking through the gates of Scaleswind. The only thing is...you ended up turning your blade on me." Explained Aphmau.

"Really?" I asked quietly.

"I DID WHAT!? NO...DID I HURT YOU!?" He asked.

"No um...Aaron stopped you." Said Aphmau.

"...I owe him my sincerest gratitude. UGH! What the-- WHAT IS THAT PAIN IN MY SHOULDER!?" He asked. I sighed.

"It's a bruise...Aaron must have done that." Said Aphmau. Aaron must have hit hard...I thought.

"UGH! WHAT DID HE DROP AN ENTIRE BUILDING ON ME?! THIS FEELS LIKE A BROKEN BONE THEN A BRUISE! MOTHER OF IRENE IT HURTS!" Shouted Laurence.

"Let me see..." Said Aphmau. Then she healed him.

"Wow..." I started. Laurence sat up.

"Well? H-How do you feel?" Asked Aphmau.

"It feels better...I-Is...this the power of the relic you absorbed from the Irene Dimension...?" Asked Laurence.

"It must be...I never had the ability to do these sort of things until we left that place." Said Aphmau.

"That's a wonderful thing...however, does it feel evil to you?" Asked Laurence.

"Evil? What are you talking about?" Asked Aphmau. I felt kind of left out. Like I wan't even there.

"Nothing...this feeling feels all to familiar so it can't be you...it was definitely that giant Shadow Soul. It had to be...I remember what happened now....I got to cocky with the ability to in and out of my new Shadow Knight form that I began to allow myself to become corrupt...good thing Y/N wasn't there..." Said Laurence. He turned to me and I nodded.

"Laurence is right." I said.

"Wait...what?" Asked Aphmau.

"It's difficult to explain and honestly I don't know too much about it myself. Nor do I think Y/N knows. But...think of it this way, Shadow Knights are much more powerful than Shadow Souls due to the fact that we have a physical body. Shadow Souls are weaklings to compared to us, however a Shadow Knight's rage can cause Shadow Souls to become even more powerful - bye turning into a Shadow Knight I essentially fueled my own corruption." Laurence explained. There wasn't much I could say. I didn't really know all that much about it too.

"What is corruption?" Asked Aphmau.

"It's when a Transformed Shadow Knight can no longer control their own thought process And becomes a brain-dead empty shell bent on the destruction of all things. It can happen so many different ways...mostly due to anger, sadness, greif, or being tainted by the thoughts of others - as you just saw happen to me." Explained Laurence. I wasn't much of a help...was I? Laurence stood up from the bed and walked around.

"Laurence...if you can't control yourself then I don't want you to turn into a Shadow Knight." Said Aphmau.

"Yeah...its kind of scary...that's happened to me before when I lived in the Nether." I said.

"...If Aaron was not there then I probably would have allowed you to kill me...then what." Aphmau sighed.

"Then you might have gone off to hurt other people in the village..maybe you would have hurt me if Aaron wasn't there...I don't even know anymore..." I said. Aphmau nodded in agreement.

"Y/N, come here..." Said Laurence. I walked over to him.

"Yeah? What is-" I started. Then he kissed me.

"Uhh..." I started blushing.

"I would, NEVER hurt you, Aphmau, or anyone else. I promise I won't go in that form I know how to control it." He said.

"L-Laurence...w-why did you..." I started.

"Sealing a promise. Heh, kind of funny though, I was expecting you to pull away." He said smirking.

"...You shouldn't do that....what about Garroth? Or Aaron?" I asked.

"Your right, I'm sorry....its just hard to hold back when I know you obviously have feelings for me." He said. I blushed harder.

"W-What?! Why would you..." I started.

"Then deny it." He said. There was a small silence.

"I-I..." I started. I didn't know what to say!

"Heh, don't tell then what I just did. I'm sure they would go crazy. Especially Garroth. He'd kick my butt in a second! Well...aside from that... I um...am going to go back to my own room to rest there. I really need to rest....see you later." He said smiling and walking out the door.

"Okay...yeah...I missed you..." I started.

"This must be hard on you. Well, unless you like him of course." Said Aphmau from behind me.

"I um..." I started, "I don't know what to think anymore. UGH! I feel like my heart is being pulled in three different directions and it's going to break between them!" I said.

"This is terrible..." Said Aphmau. Oh no...this is bad...
