I grip my chest running. The claws went right through. I'm fairly sure I'm almost there. I hope so. I finally completed my mission but what happens next? What happens after he's free? I don't know. The blood drips onto the floor. I'm leaving a trail of blood. I don't really care. 

I shakily rest on a tree. My breath is getting shaky. Pull yourself up your almost there. My walk turns into a limp. The limp falters. I can smell the sea water. I can smell the beach. I can feel my master's call.

You're almost there.

I am almost there. I suck in a breath, and I run. I run with my remaining strength. I wince. I feel my blood dripping. I feel my strength dimming like a light. I have to get to the beach. I slam into the bushes and hurdle down the beach.

"You did well, my apprentice." Master Aaravos says. 

I look up at him. I remove the cube.

"Others are nearing. You're going to show them the prison." He says. 

"And then what?" I ask.

"You're going to show them where it is. When she gets it, I will be free." He says.

I nod. I do a small bow.

"Yes, my master." I say.
