When they reached the top of the stairs their eyes focused on one thing, one thing that was in the middle of the room. Even when they tried to move their eyes they were unable to, the voice was telling them to get it.

The thing in the middle of the room, was a pair or arms similar to the finger. Surrounding the arms was a while magic circle, with a old language in it.

Walking towards the arms, Febbs reached out to grab them but as he did the magic circle lit up and pushed him back, not allowing him to come close to the arms.

"Febbs, I don't think that's how it works"

"Well what else do you have in mind"

"At this point I think we can only go up?"

Glancing at the final set of stairs going up they saw the clear night sky just beyond but not much else from down here. "I guess we have no other choice do we"

"No, i don't think we do"

Unwillingly heading up the stairs Febbs took step after step and once he reached the top of another set of stairs he saw a man, sitting on the edge of the building just looking up. "You know long ago there used to be lots of us, but now its only me. The rest have already moved on and soon so shall I. But till then you have two choices" Now turning around the old man now looking directly at the two "Either let me help you cure you of your sickness or leave. I don't want anymore bloodshed"

Febbs still staring at the man leaned forward then began running directly towards the man, creating more of the red lightning on his blade as he swings it towards the head of the old man.As the blade is about to crash into him three red arrows also arrive directly in front of the mans head.

All the strikes missed, the old man was gone from where he was previously standing making there nothing for the sword or magic arrows to hit "I see, bloodshed is a must for you now... what a shame" The old man said as he pulled out two blades. As he pulled out his blades giant white feather wings appeared on his back allowing him to fly up a little bit .

Using his wings the old man used all his speed to vanish quickly and appear directly in front of Shalador, as he did he swung with both of his swords.

His blades crashing down upon Shalador, leaving him with little options. Shalador quickly tried to dodge out of the way which allowed him to avoid the first strike but the second one cut deep into his arm.

A long blade suddenly stabbed into the side of the old man, causing him so back off and take a look at Febbs "It seems like im a bit rusty". After saying so he vanished, appearing at the side of Febbs "Time to return the favor" leaving a deep wound on the side of Febbs.

Febbs taking his property grabbed onto the man and held on tight, As he did he opened his mouth causing flames to rage out of him capturing both himself and the man in them.

Knowing he might not have another opportunity Shalador also took this chance, creating a ball of flames and blasting it towards the man.

A huge cloud of smoke covered everything but as the gust of wind blew by they could all see now, each of them a bit more injured then the last standing there staring at one another.

The first to take a step was the old man who threw one of his swords at Shalador and swung his other towards Febbs.

With the blade having two hands on it, it was much ore powerful making Febbs' attempts at blocking useless, allowing the blade to leave a deep cut across Febbs' chest. As for the blade he threw it flew towards Shalador but because it wasn't backed by his body Shalador was ably to narrowly dodge allowing him to create three more red arrows and launch them towards the old man while jumping towards him himself.

The first arrow stabbed into his chest, the second his leg and the third was cut apart by his blade but that wasn't all, Shalador also jumped over and when he did he reached out grabbing onto the old man. Lightning flared out of Shaladors hand into the wounds of the old man. Giving Febbs an opportunity to take a large downwards swing with his blade, similar lightning crashing down into the mans body.

His body finally couldn't take anymore and with Febbs strike he slammed into the top of the tower creating a web like effect of cracks all through the tower almost causing the tower to fall over.

Both Febbs and Shalador took a step back, Shalador falling to a knee because of the wounds he sustained.

The old mans body lie still, no movement. With this dark clouds began to from in the sky, lightning crashing down all around the tower, heavy rain pouring down as far as the eye could see, everywhere except on the old mans body, it was perfectly dry there. Strikes of lightning came crashing down but none neared the tower or the two on it.

A light shone down from the clouds, brightening up the area around the old mans body, also causing it to begin to lift up into the heavens.

All of a sudden a voice in their heads boomed out 'GRAB HIS BODY'. Febbs not hesitating grabbed the body and slammed it back down and as he did a finger appeared and dove into the body, absorbing all the blood in it.

Soon after the sky's cleared once more and Febbs and Shalador moved on, they went downstairs and reclaimed the arms which also disappeared again just like the finger and headed back in the direction of the town.
