"What are we going to do?" Asked the president, "Jonathan peeked out from behind cover, "we fight. We'll die on our feet." Michael nodded and they both burst out from behind cover, shooting the dronws out of the sky. "Fools!" Shouted Helios, running at Jonathan. "Don't worry master, I wil handle this." Said a complacent voice, it was Cercil. Suddenly, Cercil flew in and attacked Helios. "What are you doing?!" Roared Helios, "Relen, kill the puny human while I deal with this wretch!"

Relen ran at Jonathan, stabbing him through the stomach before he could do a thing. "NO!" Shouted Michael, but he had no time to mourn. Relen approached him next and Michael had to quickly draw his knife, just blocking Relen's huge broadsword with it. "Don't you see? You should be honoured to be in the presence of Helios, you should be happy to die for him." Behind them Cercil and Helios fought hard, though Cercil had more skill, he couldn't kill Helios unless he stabbed himwith Helios' own blade.

The figting grew more and more intense, Michael was slowly being pushed down, forced to dodge and weave, never getting a chance to hit Relen. Cercil had been clumsy, making a bad lunge, now Helios had the upper hand. "Please, Relen, it's me!" Called Michael, "fight the hex, Helios has put you under." But Relen showed no mercy, kicking Michael to his feet, hus sword raised above Michael's throat. "Good Relen, now kill him!" Said Helios, Relen turned to him, "no." Helios was in awe for a second befor Cercil took his chance and ripped Helios' sword from his hand and plunged it into his throat, killing the god. Helios suddenly exploded in a shroud of green flame, instantly vaporising Cercil and turning the corpse of Jonathan to ashes. Relen, who'd been closer to the explosion, was thrown back, now with third degree burns covering the right hand side of his face. Michael was knocked to the ground but had his hand suddenly cauterised by a piece of fragmening shrapnel. Relen was in so much pain, there was no way that he could lose conciousness... But he did.

Relen awoke, finally free of Helios' spell. What had he done? Killed the people he wanted only to protect, injured his friends and sacked innocent worlds in search of targets. He had to redeem himself. He hobbled to his feet, his head burning and walked over to Michael. He saw the bleeding stump of his hand and quickly bandaged it. Relen pulled Michael onto his shoulder and began to walk away, until he saw somethibg glinting on the ground, Javelin's AI chip. Relen took it, muttering to himself, "I always wanted one of these."

Michael awoke in a small hut, Relen by his side. "No!" He roared, quickly trying to find something to stab Relen with, "Don't worry!" Said Relen, "It's me! Not Helios, I'm free. Listen, you hit your head and will have forgotten some things." Relen told him what happened but changed it, in his story Jonathan died at Helios' hands, giving Relen incentive to break free of Helios' hex. Then he and Cercil fought Helios, killing him. Michael lost his hand when they 'crashed' the radio tower and Relen was burned by Helios' explosion.

Michael was in disbelief, looking at hus new robotic hand, "What about Javelin?" He asked, "dead." Lied Relen, "I'm sorry Michael, please, just forgive me." Michael though, just shook his head. "I'm sorry Relen, I have to go," and so Relen was alone. With his only friends gone.
