《Dark Flame》Chapter 31

Adraas flew across the room and hit the wall like a sack of rocks. The painful impact knocked the air out of him for a few seconds. As he tried to catch his breath, he felt a surge of dark energy coursing through him, healing his body. Then he looked at Vowrawn standing with arms wide open beside the altar. As his glowing crimson eyes found Adraas, Vowrawn nodded his head to continue on.
Quickly, Adraas sprung up and rushed at Revan again, who was engaged in an insane lightsaber fight with Malgus and Marr. In the bright red glow of the tomb, Malgus's face morphed into a grimace as he absorbed some of the agonizing energy coming from Revan.
While his right shoulder throbbed with excruciating pain, the left side of his face felt burning hot. Pushing the pain away, he kept slashing at Revan who had just gained the upper hand against Marr. As Marr hit the ground, Revan was about to stab him through the chest, when Adraas rushed past Malgus and tackled Revan, rolling him to the ground. Then he repeatedly punched him, breaking Revan's lips open. A loud, animalistic growl left Revan as he shoved Adraas away. Jumping to his feet, Revan sent out a powerful surge of electrical pulse throughout the chamber causing spiderweb-like cracks on the walls and ceiling.
While the room shook showering them with pebbles of rocks and dust, a sudden fear engulfed Malgus. If we don't subdue Revan soon, he might bring down the whole damn tomb on top of us, he anxiously thought.
He is strong with the Force; Marr thought disheartened, getting onto his knees. He heard about Revan's powers, but to experience it at first hand was something else. He would have never thought it was so difficult to fight one man. One damned man, he thought with frustration and anger. "I'm getting too old for this." He murmured as he stood up ready to get back into the ring again.
Swiftly, Malgus sent a bolt of powerful Force lightning toward Revan. However, Revan was faster and after absorbing Malgus's powers, he sent the bright blue electrified tendrils right back at him, causing Malgus to fall backwards. As he collided with the altar, Malgus had just enough time to roll to his left as Revan's purple lightsaber came down on the altar, slicing into the stone with ease.
Satele had no idea what was happening on the other side of her hiding place. She wanted to take a peek, but she feared what she might see. Cradling her belly, she prayed to the Gods to keep Malgus alive. She didn't want to think about losing him. Then another electrical surge rushed through the room, brightening up the walls with a bright white light followed by the very familiar sounds of lightsabers and painful shouting from Adraas and Marr. A few times she wanted to reach out to Revan hoping to stop him, but she didn't dare to try. She feared if she did, it might lead her down the dark path just like the day when she defeated the Emperor. No, she thought, shaking her head. I can't.
Breathing heavily, and while large beads of sweat ran down his forehead and back, Vowrawn concentrated again on healing his fellow Sith. It took tremendous effort for him to stay upright while the fight continued on. Revan indeed proved to be a fearsome warrior and Vowrawn was never a man who underestimated his opponents. We just need to find the right opportunity to catch him off guard, he thought desperately watching them fight against the madman.

Revan's fury swept through the stone-walled room like a hurricane. How dare they trick me like this? He thought furiously, sending Malgus and Adraas flying across the room again.
"I'm going to enjoy killing you all!" He shouted. Then with a vicious grin, he added. "And once I'm done with you, I'm going to kill HER, slowly and painfully."
"NOOOOO!" Malgus roared. His eyes like burning coal penetrated into Revan's, as he approached him. Pointing his weapon toward Revan, Malgus yelled.
"If you touch her, I'm going to gut you. Do you understand?"
A small, evil chuckle left Revan's mouth as he said.
"Big words from a big guy like you will not scare me." Then he spat at them. "Nothing scares me! You pathetic losers would never be able to kill me."
"No." Vowrawn said, watching as Marr slowly and carefully approached Revan. "We don't want to kill you."
A sudden frown appeared on Revan's face.
"Then why are you doing this?" He asked confused looking at Vowrawn.
"You know the woman you are about to kill, slowly and painfully?" Vowrawn said. "She is your descendant Revan. She is a blood relative, and the child inside her is your future."
Shaking his head in disbelief, Revan looked at him and said.
"No, you are lying. I don't have a family. The only thing I have is my vengeance, and you are in my way."
"But your wife Bastila had a child, don't you remember?" Vowrawn said trying to buy some time.
"No." Revan shook his head. "She is dead." Staring in front of him, he whispered. "So is the child."
"You are wrong Revan." Vowrawn said.
"No." Revan replied with anger. "You are all wrong and now you will die!"
"Not today." Marr growled as he grabbed Revan and pushed the syringe into his neck.
A sudden look of surprise showed on Revan's face as the drug swiftly coursed through his body. Instantly he felt lightheaded and disoriented. Shoving Marr away, he staggered toward Vowrawn trying to cut him down.
"What have you done to me?" He slurred while his fiery eyes locked onto his.
"Nothing but to trick you again." Vowrawn replied with a sly grin.
Slashing around like a drunken fool, Revan shook his head trying to overcome the effects of the drug. However, as much as he tried, the drug proved to be much stronger than him, rendering him to his knees.
"What…is… this?" He mumbled staring at his trembling hands. Then he looked up when a ghostly image of himself appeared in the room and approached him.
"No….no….no." He cried seeing the apparition. "No. It…can't be."
"Don't you see?" Revan's spirit said looking at the broken man in front of him. "This cannot go on any longer."
"I had cast you out." Revan replied. With loathing, he added. "You are nothing but weakness."
Squatting down in front of him, the spirit of Revan looked into his eyes and said.
"I am you and you are me. We are one. It's time to become whole again."
Saying that he placed his hand on Revan's slumped shoulders.
Blinding brightness enveloped the cave as the spirit merged with Revan's body. Then he collapsed to the floor.
"What's going on?" Adraas asked confused. "Did it work?"
Kneeling down beside him, Malgus placed his finger on Revan's throat.
"He is alive."
"How do we know if it worked or not?" Marr asked with a frown folding his arms in front of his chest.

"We have to restrain him." Vowrawn suggested as he stepped closer. "Once he is awake, we'll find out."
"Good idea." Marr replied. Then he added. "I'd rather not fight him again."
"Well said." Malgus replied looking at Revan's face. It was strange to see him in the flesh. He looks peaceful now, Malgus thought. Then his attention turned toward the altar and saw Adraas helping Satele up.
"Don't touch me." She growled pulling her hand out of his.
"Alright." Adraas replied pulling his hand back. "I just wanted to see if you were okay."
"As you can see, I am okay." Satele snapped back. She hoped he would not survive the fight, however, he was still here making her feel disappointed.
Malgus swiftly approached her and embraced her, while Adraas looked away, frustrated.
"What happened to your face?" She asked with worry, looking at the raw, burned flesh.
"My face?" Malgus inquired.
As she lightly ran her hand over the side of his face, Malgus slightly shuddered from the pain. He had no idea what had happened to his face, but from the way Satele looked at him, it didn't look good at all. With a concerned expression, she asked.
"Revan did this to you?"
"He is strong, much stronger than anyone I have ever fought." Malgus replied wincing. "But he is subdued now. We just have to wait until he wakes up."
Then her eyes landed on Revan's unconscious body and she hoped their plan had worked.
When Revan opened his eyes, the first thing he noticed was the restraints cutting into his body. Then as his vision cleared, he saw Malgus, Marr, and Vowrawn standing above him with weapons at hand.
"It's me." Revan said looking at Malgus. "I'm finally whole again."
"How do we know it's you?" Marr asked eyeing Revan suspiciously.
"When you and Satele were in cryostasis I helped you through the rough times, do you remember?" Revan said looking at Malgus's skeptical expression. "The knowledge that I had given you made you a better man today."
Nodding his head Malgus replied.
"Yes, I remember."
Looking at his restraints, Revan said.
"Would you mind letting me out of these, please?" Then with a mischievous grin, he added. "This feels like you are about to roast me over a spit."
"Can we trust him?" Marr asked looking at Malgus.
"Yes, we can." Malgus replied. Then he started removing the restraints.
"Satele is going to be very happy to see you, you know that right?" Malgus said throwing the ropes onto the floor.
Sitting up, Revan rubbed the side of his arms and then he heard Marr.
"Where did you find that outfit?" With a sly grin, Marr added. "I thought I threw that one out a long time ago."
For a few seconds, Revan looked at Marr with a puzzled expression. Then looking down on himself he patted his chest and then he asked.
"I'm wearing one of your outfits?"
"That's alright." Marr said smiling behind his mask. "I won't be able to fit into it anymore."
"Oh, that's a relief." Revan replied. "I thought you were going to make me take it off." With a sly grin, he added. "After getting out of these ropes I wasn't looking forward to stripping for you. You don't want to see that, do you?"
Shaking his head, Vowrawn said.
"I think we are better off not seeing you in a nude." Then he added. "Can you use your powers?"
"Hmmm….good question." Revan replied as he tossed his legs over the side of the bed.
"I can feel something, but it's very faint. Like a low burning candle." He said looking at the three Sith. Suddenly, he lifted his right arm up and aimed at Vowrawn.
As the three of them were ready to jump him, Revan shrugged his shoulders and said with an innocent smile.
"I'm at your mercy."
Letting out a relieved sigh, Vowrawn said with a nervous smile.
"I think I'm going to like your sense of humor."
Then Revan's attention turned to Malgus. The shallow gashes on the left side of his face looked raw and swollen giving him a slightly gruesome look.
"I'm sorry about your face." Revan apologized. "I hope Satele is not mad at me."
"That's alright." Malgus said with a sly grin. "I was never a pretty boy."
"I know she loves you no matter what." Revan replied. "May I see her?"
"Yes, of course." Magus replied.
A few minutes later Malgus came back with Satele. As her eyes found Revan's a wide smile appeared on her face. Under Malgus's watchful eyes, Revan slowly stood up and approached her.
"You look wonderful." He said measuring her up. "May I?" He asked lifting his arms up to the side.
"Yes, you may." She replied and then she embraced him.
It felt extremely good to hug him in a flesh, Satele thought with a smile. Taking a few shaky breaths, she said in a whisper.
"It's so good to see you again."
Lightly squeezing her, he replied.
"I'm glad to see you too. I know from now on everything is going to be alright."
"Why are you so certain?" Malgus asked looking at them.
Letting Satele go, Revan looked at him and said.
"I have the key to win this war." With a frown, he asked. "How long was I out? What happened to the Revanites?"
"They are in the kitchen having dinner." Satele reassured him.
"We knew them from Dromund Kaas." Malgus said with a saddened tone thinking about his home.
"I'm glad they didn't cause any trouble." Revan replied. "I know they were following him, but now that I'm here, I will lead them."
"They are loyal to you no matter what." Satele said with a smile. "And also loyal to me as well."
Gazing into her eyes, Revan said. "Of course they are." Then he added. "You have the same fire in your eyes like Bastila, do you know that?"
"I didn't know." Satele coyly replied. "Unfortunately I never had the chance of meeting her."
Gently caressing her face, he said.
"She was just as beautiful as you, my love." With a sorrowful tone, he added. "I miss her terribly."
Wrapping her hand around his, she said in a hushed tone.
"I never knew my father, but if I did I would have hoped for someone like you."
Malgus silently watched them and felt a mixture of emotions sweeping through him. This moment felt amazingly heartwarming, nearly bringing tears to his eyes.
"We are family, Satele." Revan said as he gently touched her belly. Then he added. "And this child is our future."
That evening after Revan made his speech in the kitchen, everyone retired for the night. The following days they were busy fixing the Star Map that hopefully will lead them to the enemy.
While some of the Revanites with the help of Malgus and Adraas worked on the machine, standing beside Satele, Revan said.
"I cannot ignore the fact that both of these men are deeply in love with you."
"Only one of them." Satele replied. "Adraas motives are not associated with love."
"Love has many forms." Revan replied. "But his obsession with you is troubling."
Gazing at the ground Satele said. "He is someone I would love to erase not just from my life, but from my memories as well."
"But he is also your family Satele." Revan said.
With an upset tone, she replied. "No, he is not and never will be."
Taking a deep breath Revan said.
"I'm going to take him with me."
"You are?" Satele asked. "To where?"
"Once we find the enemy's location, we'll need more soldiers." Revan replied. "I already talked with Vowrawn and we agreed that the best place to recruit others would be Csilla and Zakuul. He hopes that Arcann and Lord Scourge together with the Chiss army, will be able to help."
"You can't take him to Zakuul." Satele protested. "If Vaylin is there, he will use her against you and everyone else. He is not to be trusted."
"If he tries to use her against me or anyone else, I will take care of him myself." Revan replied with a serious expression. "I've seen him looking at you and I can feel he is desperate to have you. However, I think it's best for everyone if he comes with me. He is a great fighter and we need all the able-bodied soldiers we can get." Placing his hand on her shoulder he added. "He is a troubled person and needs the right guidance."
"And you think you will be able to guide him?" Satele worriedly asked.
"I can always try." Revan replied with a thin smile.
"Give me that wrench." Malgus said as he pointed toward the tool.
Picking up the wrench, Adraas squatted down beside Malgus and handed it to him. While he watched him fixing the bottom part of the machine, he asked.
"Who taught you to do this?"
"My father." Malgus replied and then he said. "Put your finger there and hold it in place."
"Just make sure I don't lose it." Adraas said with mischief placing his finger on the machine. "I would like to keep all eight of them if possible." He added with a grin.
"Don't worry." Malgus said as he pulled the wrench tighter around the bolt. "You can keep your fingers to yourself."
"Oh, do I hear slight anger in the tone of your voice?" Adraas asked with a sly smile.
Looking into his eyes, Malgus said in a serious tone.
"If you say another word I'm going to smack this wrench right between your eyes. That would definitely ruin your looks with the ladies."
"Then I better stay quiet." Adraas replied with a smirk.
Malgus wanted to say something again, but instead, he kept on working. The last thing he wanted was to get pissed off.
"It's done." Malgus said with a satisfied grin putting the tools down. Then he turned to one of the Revanites and said. "Let Lord Marr and Vowrawn know that we are ready to use it."
"As you wish my Lord." The man replied and then he left.
Running his hand through his hair, Adraas curiously looked at Revan and Satele. He had a feeling they were talking about more than just how to win this war. In the last few days, while they were repairing the Star Map, they kept him under close watch. He didn't have the chance to get back to his apartment, which made him angry and frustrated. His plan had gone sour when Revan and his followers showed up. He wouldn't dare challenge Revan again. It was better to stay low until the right time comes, he thought.
Stepping closer, Revan ran his hand over the cold metal. His thoughts took him back hundreds of years ago in this place when he and Malak arrived here. How everything was so different back then, he thought, measuring up the Star Map that now looked as good as new.
After Marr and Vowrawn arrived, Revan pulled out the necklace from his pocket and then placed the medallion in its designated spot on the side of the machine.
A loud click was heard as the machine came to life. Then a bright green light enveloped the inside of the tomb, casting a glow on everyone's face, as the holographic image of the galaxy expanded above the machine. Within the glowing map, several planets were blinking rapidly, showing the path of the Rakatan's army throughout the galaxy.
"Do you see this path?" Revan asked pointing toward the blinking lights.
"Yes." Vowrawn replied gazing at the holographic image.
"This path shows the Rakatans route of destruction. But if you look over here, they all lead back to this one specific location." Saying that he pointed toward a small planet not far from them.
"Dathomir?" Marr asked puzzled. "Why Dathomir? What's there?"
Turning to Marr Revan said.
"I believe this is where we are going to find them."
"I think you might be right." Vowrawn said fidgeting with his tendrils. "The ancient Kwa's originated from Dathomir. It would make sense that the Rakatans are using that planet for themselves."
"Dathomir is not far from here." Malgus said. "We can gather more soldiers and take them out. We'll strike quick and merciless. They won't stand a chance."
"I wish it was that easy." Revan said. "Don't forget we have to be smart about this if we want to win."
"What do you suggest?" Marr inquired.
"The best tactic would be to scout out Dathomir." Revan replied. "Instead of blindingly attacking them, we need to find out their motives and their plans. Once we have this information, we can get on with our plan to end them for good."
"Who are you going to send?" Malgus asked.
"I'll go." One of the Revanites spoke up.
"Count me in as well." Another said.
"Have you spied on anyone before?" Vowrawn asked looking at the man and the woman.
"I have." The woman replied.
"What about you?" Vowrawn asked the man.
"I have never spied on anyone, but I would be glad to take this task." He replied.
"Very well." Vowrawn said. "Leave as soon as possible and report back to us. May the Force be with you."
After they left, Revan asked.
"Do you have a ship to spare?"
"We found one that is still operational." Marr replied. "Why are you asking?"
"I'm going to take that ship and leave for Csilla." Revan replied.
"Should we come with you?" Satele asked.
"Korriban is the perfect place for you to stay right now." Revan replied. "Its close proximity to Dathomir is what we need when we are ready to strike. I have a feeling the enemy won't be back anytime soon. You should be safe here for now. After attacking the planets, they didn't bother securing them. I wonder what their true motive was."
"What about us, my Lord?" One of the Revanites asked.
"You are coming with me." Revan replied and then turning to Adraas he said. "And you as well."
"Me?" Adraas pointed to his chest confused. "Why me?"
As his gaze penetrated into Adraas's, Revan said.
"If you don't mind I would like to keep you close."
Adraas wanted to protest, but the way he looked at him, he didn't dare. His penetrating stare gave him a fluttery feeling inside his stomach.
Reluctantly, he nodded his head and said.
"As you wish…my Lord."
That evening when they were ready to leave, Revan approached Satele and Malgus and said.
"I promise, I won't be long." Touching her belly and with a smile he said. "I want to be back before the little one is born."
"You have about a month or so." Satele replied. "You better hurry up."
Embracing her, Revan said.
"I will."
Then he shook hands with Malgus and said.
"Take care and keep her safe."
"You know I will." He replied.
"See you soon." Revan said and then he walked away and headed for the ship.
"I guess its goodbye then." Adraas said with an extended arm standing in front of Malgus.
"Goodbye Adraas." Malgus said and then reluctantly he shook hands with him.
With a sly grin, Adraas said. "We'll see each other again…little brother."
A flicker of annoyance showed on Malgus's face making Adraas smile on the inside.
Then his attention turned to Satele and as he extended his hand toward her, he said.
"I hope one day you'll forgive me."
"And I hope I will never have to see you again." Satele replied with a cold tone.
"No handshake then?" Adraas said feigning hurt, however on the inside he felt truly disappointed. Not just because of the fact that his plans were disrupted by Vitiate and Revan, but now he had to leave, which was not for his liking. Then he thought about pushing it further and asking for a kiss, but in the last second, he changed his mind. The look she gave him was just like the one she gave him on the Lindworm, cold and chilling.
As the ship disappeared in the sky, Satele turned to Malgus and asked.
"Do you think Revan will end up killing him?"
"I hope not." Malgus replied with a sly grin. "If anyone is going to kill him it's going to be me."
With a wicked smile, she looked at him and said.
"I would love to see that."
"You might." Malgus replied with a mischievous grin, but somewhere deep inside he wasn't sure if this is what he truly wanted.
"No, no no." Arcann frantically murmured looking at his brother's dead body lying on the cold floor of the throne room. "Please wake up… Thexan, wake up." He shook his twin violently. "Don't leave me!" He shouted." Please, Thexan STAY!"
As a single tear fell down his face he heard his father's evil chuckle echoing through the room.
Quickly, Arcann looked around but couldn't see anyone. Tightly hugging Thexan's body, Arcann's face morphed into a vicious grimace thinking about his father and what he had made him do. This memory felt extremely real and was too bitter to swallow.
"Why?" He cried looking toward the high ceiling. "WHYYYYYY!"
Then he heard the voice again.
"Pain and suffering is the path you need to follow."
"SHUT UP!" Arcann roared. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"
"I will always be with you." The voice tauntingly said. "I am part of you."
Breathing hard and fast, Arcann hugged his brother tighter until his knuckles turned milky white. "Please forgive me." He whispered. "I never meant this to happen…I love you."
Then an evil laugh enveloped the room again making Arcann jump to his feet.
As he ignited his weapon, he spun around and shouted with an infuriated look on his face.
"Show yourself, COWARD!"
"As you wish." The voice chuckled.
Thexan's fingers slightly trembled as his body like a puppet slowly came alive. Then he sat up and with an empty stare he looked at Arcann's astonished face. Then an evil grin appeared on his handsome face causing Arcann to step back.
Shaking his head, Arcann said in disbelief.
"Please don't."
"Hello, brother." Thexan said with a guttural voice. "Did you miss me?"
"STOP THIS MADNESS!" Arcann shouted looking all around. "STOP IT NOW!"
"He will never stop." Thexan said as he stood up and ignited his weapon. "You should know this by now…Arcann." With an evil grin, he added. "Fight me, brother."
Then he rushed at Arcann with a furious look on his face ready to kill him.
As their weapons collided, Arcann begged his brother while he held back his vicious attacks.
"Please, Thexan STOP! Put down your weapon."
"Not until you're dead." Thexan replied through gritted teeth. After a few minutes of fighting that felt like hours, Arcann suddenly let down his guard and said.
"So be it."
Shearing, hot pain shot through him as Thexan's lightsaber penetrated his chest, impaling him.
A silent 'O' formed on Arcann's face looking into his brother's eyes. However, those eyes were not Thexan's but his father's staring back at him with a vengeance. Then a vicious smile appeared on Thexan's face as he said.
"I will leave you here to suffer, while I go and visit your precious little girlfriend." Saying that he swiftly deactivated his weapon, causing Arcann to collapse to the floor.
Cradling his stomach, Arcann watched as his brother turned away from him and started to walk toward the door. Desperately clutching the air in front of him, Arcann tried to stop him.
"Lana." He whispered as darkness started to take over. "Lana." Then he hit the floor welcoming the comfort of darkness. A few seconds later Lana's horrified scream echoed through the chamber, sweeping over Arcann's unconscious body.
"PLEASE!" Lana screamed while her parents were burning in front of her eyes. "ENOUGH!" She begged as large tears ran down her face. "STOP THIS!" The smell of their charred flesh brought her extreme nausea. Gagging, she tried to turn her head away, but Thexan firmly held her in place, making sure she watched every second of their tragic death.
"Watch." He growled into her ear. "Do not close your eyes or I will rip them out."
After Lana was forced to witness her parent's death, Vitiate silently watched, as her body shook and trembled in a machine while her eyes rapidly moved behind closed eyelids. Then his attention turned to the unconscious Arcann also strapped into a machine. Walking closer to his son, he placed his hand on his chest, and then he said.
"Wake up."
Arcann's terrified expression amused Vitiate as he stared at him in disbelief.
A small chuckle left Vitiate's mouth thinking about how sweet it will be when he breaks him.
Feels good, she thought with a smile, as Malgus lips teased hers and then he slid his hand down her neck and cupped one of her breasts. Gently, he started kneading her breast and then in a low voice he said.
"It feels full." With a mischievous smile, he added. "I like it."
"I know you do." Satele replied swatting his hand away. "Stop that." She said laughing. "I'm getting too big for that."
Pushing himself up on his elbow, Malgus looked at her rounded belly and then he said while caressing it.
"You look beautiful."
"I don't feel beautiful." She replied. Then she added. "I feel like I've swallowed a huge balloon full of water."
Planting a kiss on top of her stomach, and as he placed his ear on it, he asked.
"Do you think the baby can hear us?"
"I think so." Satele replied. "I felt the baby move several times today. He or she is very active."
"Oh wait." He said with a surprised expression. "I felt something."
"I felt that too." She said with a smile feeling a big kick from the inside. Then her smile suddenly disappeared as a gush of warm water rushed out of her, instantly wetting the sheets.
"Is that...?" Malgus asked puzzled looking from the drenched sheets to her astonished face.
Swallowing hard, she pulled her nightgown over her belly and spread her legs apart.
"I thought we had a little bit more time." Malgus said with an anxious expression.
With frightened eyes, she looked into his and said.
"Me too."
Quickly, Malgus jumped out of bed and after putting his pants on, with a nervous smile he said to the stunned Satele.
"Stay here. I'll get Marr."
A few minutes later Malgus with Marr arrived at their bedchamber.
"Where is Satele?" Marr asked looking around. Then his eyes landed on the drenched sheets and then they heard the shower turn on.
"Satele." Malgus called for her standing at the door of the refresher. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. I just wanted to wash it off." Satele anxiously said scrubbing her legs and belly. The thought of giving birth tonight made her feel lightheaded. She knew this day would come. She tried to be prepared as much as she could, but now when it was time, she wasn't sure if she was strong enough to go through with it.
"Satele." Marr's calm voice came through the shower door. "You don't need to take a shower." Then he added. "Childbirth comes with its hmmm, unpleasant messes."
Looking at Marr, Malgus asked.
"How do you know that?"
"Gilina helped many women give birth. She used to tell me some stories." Marr replied and then he asked. "Why do you even need me when you have helped so many animals in need before?"
"This is different." Malgus said nervously thinking that he might accidentally hurt the baby. "Please Marr." He begged. "I need your help."
Nodding his head, Marr said with a wicked grin.
"Alright, I'll do it but only if Vowrawn is going to be my assistant."
"You're joking right?" Malgus asked laughing. "You know how he is around blood and other unpleasant things." Malgus said.
"That is why I need him, my friend." Marr replied with a grin. "Now go and get him, we have a baby to deliver tonight."
