Still V's POV

Y/N? "What do you mean?" I asked Marrowkai. He smirked at me. "Medusa is giving you 2 options.

"One, you surrender your empire to Chaos and we will return her. Two..." He paused.

"You keep your empire, but Y/N dies." I froze. Flare and the Charrogs froze too when they heard what Marrowkai said.

I can't loose Y/N. She means the world to me. But I can't loose the Elemental Empire either. This was a hard choice.

"Medusa is giving you 3 days to think about it. Don't even try an assault because we already have an army prepared." Marrowkai said.

With that, he turned around and left the castle, leaving me with the tough burden of decision.

Then, Flare piped up. "So, V. What's it gonna be? Y/N or the Elementals.?" He asked.

I shook my head. "I... don't... know." I replied slowly. I had no idea what to do now.

Back to Regular POV

You hated it here. The Chaos prison sucks. You were barely given enough food and you were mocked by the Juggerknights and Eclipsors.

You were still devising a plan of escape but none of them would result in anything that isn't death.

You sighed as you sat in a corner of the cell. You started to miss V. You sometimes wondered what his choice will be.

Its been maybe 3 days. You started to grow more worried about yourself. If V chose the empire over you, it would mean your end.

But you didn't want to be a burden. You wanted V to make the right choice. You didn't want to get in the way. After all, his life was perfectlu fine without you.

You started crying uncontrollably. All that mattered now was finding a way out and getting to V.

You heard footsteps. You wiped your face to greet your visitor. It was a Juggerknight. "What do you want?" You asked him.

"V is coming later so we need to get you ready." He replied as he unlocked your cell.

"V? Why?" You questioned. The Juggerknight rolled his eyes. "We'll see what he chooses." He said as he grabbed you by the arm.

"Lets go." He told you. You scoffed and pointed to the chain around your leg. The Juggerknight rolled his eyes. "I knew that." He glared.

He removed the chain but maintained his grip on you. You had no choice but to follow him to wherever he was taking you.

He dragged you outside the castle. You felt relieved that you could actually get fresh air. 'Maybe things won't be so bad after all." You thought.

But your thoughts were shattered when you saw an army of Deads and Giants. You also spotted some Bombers and Crawlers.

"Why would you need an army?" You asked the Juggerknight. "Just in case V attacks." He answered.

You shrugged and got bored. Then, you heard a familiar voice. "Ah, I see Y/N is here already."

You look behind you and see the Queen of Chaos. You scoff and look away. "Stop being so confident. V might just choose to let you go." Medusa glared.

"Maybe, maybe not." You replied. Medusa snarled. "Lets just see about that." She said.

After about a few hours, you were complaining to Medusa about how you were 'dying of boredom'. She ignored you as she seemed focused on something else.

You then heard noise coming from a short distance. Medusa heard it too. You look and see a flash before seeing a familiar white figure.

It was V. He teleported here all alone? Thats a bit dumb. When he saw you, his face showed relief.

But he got angry when a Juggerknight grabbed you. V looked at Medusa and walked closer. He made a sword appear for defense.

"Give me back Y/N." He demanded. Medusa smirked. "If you want her, give me what I want." She said

V looked at her then to you. You gave him a hopeful look to try and reassure him that everything was fine.

Then V glared at Medusa. "I will NEVER give up the Elemental Empire." He emphasized the part 'never'.

Medusa laughed. "Are you sure? You do know the price for this right?" She said as she pointed to you.

V nodded slowly. "Yes. I am aware." He told her. "And I am sure of what I want."

You froze. You knew it. It was your end. Your free trial of life has ended. Medusa cackled before facing V again.

"Suit yourself." She said as she walked towards you. You felt fear as she was only a few meters away.

But then you saw V smile and snicker. You wondered why. Medusa noticed too. "Whats so funny?" She demanded.

V looked at her. "The fact that you really thought I would just let you kill my fiance like that." He smiled.

Medusa was confused. "What do you mean?" She asked. "Im not going down without a fight." V said.

The Juggerknights laughed. "Oh yeah? You and what army?" They asked. V smirked. "That one." He pointed to the horizon.

Medusa froze when she saw the army that V was talking about. You were shocked as well.

"V! I did it! I asked them and they agreed!" You saw Flare waving. V nodded.

You looked at the army. You saw some Treatures, Charrogs, Cycloids, and Infernos. There were also Scorplings and other Elementals.

But what caught you attention was the other army. You saw units from an empire that you only read about in books: the Order Empire.

You could see Speartons, Swordwraths, Shadowraths, Albowtrosses and Enslaved Giants. Backing them up were Archidons, Magikills, and Merics.

Medusa got angry. Not just from the extra army, but from seeing the Enslaved Giants. "YOU WILL ALL DIE!" She screamed.

You watched as someone stepped out from the Order's army. It was a Spearton with a grey helmet and a red cape.

"We won't let you do that." He said as he prepared his spear. V nodded back at him and looked back at Medusa.

"If its a battle you want," Medusa signalled the Juggerknight holding you to let go. You almost fell but regained balance.

"Then its a battle you will get."
