Lost battle
“Ple-please. St-stop.”
King Hsss smirked as he looked at Eternia’s champion. The boy curled up in a tiny ball. His sword was just out of his reach.
King Hsss walked over to the boy and tilted his chin up to force him to look at him. He watched dark blue vein-like lines appear on the small boy’s skin. His poison slowly taking effect.
“Tell me, little hero. Did you really think you would win?”
Adam cried out in pain as one of King Hsss’s heads bit his side. Injecting more venom into the young Prince.
He let go of the boy watching as his breathing continued to slow.
“I fought King Grayskull. I was defeated by him. But you. You little hero. Are no King Grayskull.”
Adam felt his eyes grow heavy. Watching as King Hsss walked away. Adam tried to reach for his sword, but his fingers barely brushed the hilt. He wanted to cry when King Hsss’s general kicked it away from him.
Adam curled up against himself, wanting for Hsss’s venom to just kill him already. He would rather be dead before he was eaten alive anyway.
His vison went dark. But he could still hear and feel everything around him.
General Rattlor chuckled at the sight of the dying prince. His large head tucking the sweaty blonde strands behind his ear to get a good look at the boy.
“Do you really think my King intended to kill you little Prince?” Rattlor purred.
Adam felt his stomach knot at the tone of the General’s words. Adam felt a sharp pain spike through his body.
He let out a choked sob. She was gone. The Sorceresses was gone. He could no longer feel her presence in his mind.
Rattlor pulled the boy up, holding him to his chest as he pet his hair.
“My king would have eaten you whole right after your fight if he wanted you dead.”
Adam whimpered as Rattlor buried his snout in his neck. He licked his neck and smiled.
“He has great plans for you “LIttle Prince.”
Adam finally lost consciousness as Rattlor contenied to pet his hair.
Yes. His King had great plans indeed.
