Elara looked at the giant glass sphere hanging in the center of the room. She saw the faint, weak, dying blue light of Luna pulsing inside the cage.

She remembered what Frank had told her. The Root had captured innocent creatures of light for millions of years. It trapped them in bottles. It drained their magic until they died in the dark, all alone.

Elara looked back down at Frank. She remembered the moment the giant marble hammer had fallen. She remembered Frank throwing his own body, his o

    The sound of Alaric’s jawbone snapping was deafening. The massive bone broke into a dozen pieces. The force of the blow lifted the eight-foot-tall, thousand-pound monster completely off his feet. Alaric’s head snapped backward so violently that his neck broke with a loud, wet crack.Thick, dark red blood and glowing golden sap exploded from his ruined face in a massive fountain. The liquid rained down across the room. The giant monster was thrown backward through the air. He crashed heavily onto the squishy red floor, his heavy armor clanking loudly. He rolled three times before coming to a complete, dead stop. Frank did not stop moving. He instantly activated Phase-Shift again. He turned back into pure blue and golden light. Frank blinked backward, hovering ten feet away from the fallen King. He raised his glowing arms, preparing to strike again. He was going to punch the monster until there was nothing left but dust. He had no memories. He had no emotions. He was just an empty

    The black glass faceplate of the helmet shattered into a million pieces. The thick black steel dented inward. Dark red blood and golden sap exploded from Alaric’s nose and mouth. Alaric shrieked. He dropped his giant golden sword. He reached his massive hands up and grabbed Frank’s arms, trying to crush the boy’s bones. Frank instantly turned intangible. Alaric’s heavy hands passed harmlessly through Frank’s glowing blue chest. Frank floated backward ten feet. He was breathing heavily. His glowing blue and gold body flickered violently. The light was becoming unstable. The edges of his form turned to white static. The physical toll of materializing and dematerializing so rapidly was tearing his cells apart. Every time he turned solid to land a punch, his broken ribs ground together. His snapped leg burned. Blood poured from his nose, his ears, and his glowing eyes. He looked like a terrifying, bleeding god of war. "Frank, please!" Luna screamed in his mind. She was crying digit

    Frank vanished into a streak of golden lightning. Inside Frank’s mind, a terrible, silent explosion occurred. The System burned a massive chunk of his neural pathways to fuel the teleportation. Frank forgot how to read. The concept of letters and words completely vanished from his brain. If someone handed him a book right now, it would just look like meaningless, confusing black scratches on a page. The ability was permanently deleted. Frank did not care. He did not need to read to kill the King. Frank reappeared directly behind Alaric’s broad back. He materialized his glowing blue Phantom Limb on his left side. He formed the energy into a massive, heavy hammer. He swung the magical hammer directly into the center of Alaric’s dark steel back plate. The shockwave blasted Alaric forward. The giant King stumbled, his heavy boots scraping against the wet meat of the floor. He roared in anger and spun around, swinging his golden sword blindly. Frank blinked away again. The sword p

    "Frank, no!" Luna pleaded urgently. "Your Echo Core is empty! The only way to power a Phase-Shift is to burn your own neural pathways! If you turn your whole body into light, you will permanently delete your memories! You will erase your own mind!""Give it to me," Frank ordered. "You cannot fight him like this!" Luna cried. "He is a Level-4 Admin! He has infinite energy! If you use the Phase-Shift, you have to stay in it! If you drop the shift to hit him, he will crush your physical body! The energy drain will kill you in less than a minute!"Frank slowly pushed himself up onto his good left knee. He stared directly into King Alaric's glowing golden eyes. The red text flashed violently across Frank’s vision. [ WARNING! NEURAL DECAY CRITICAL! ] Luna’s robotic system voice blared loudly, trying to override his command. [ FRANK, YOU ARE ERASING YOURSELF! ]Frank threw his head back. He opened his mouth. He let out a sound that did not belong in the human world. It was a raw, tearing,

    The massive, fleshy throne room was completely silent. The heavy, rhythmic heartbeat of the ancient machine stopped mattering. The hot, sour wind blowing from the acid sea stopped mattering. The pain in Frank Williams’s shattered ribs, his broken right leg, and his burnt left stump completely disappeared. Frank lay on the squishy, dark red floor. His human right hand was pressed flat against the wet meat of the cavern. He stared across the room. He looked at the dark black stone wall near the open vault doors. He looked at the tiny, broken body lying perfectly still at the bottom of the wall. Princess Elara was not moving. Her head rested awkwardly against the cold stone. Her pale, beautiful eyes were closed. Her arms and legs were completely limp. A terrible, dark red stain of blood painted the wall behind her head. She had charged a giant, eight-foot-tall monster to protect him. She had fought with a tiny, chipped dagger. And her own father had swatted her out of the air like

    “No. No. No.” Frank’s mind chanted. The sound was absolutely, perfectly sickening. It was not a dull thud. It was a sharp, terrible, wet cracking noise that echoed endlessly through the silent, massive temple. Elara slammed back-first into the solid black stone wall. Her head whipped backward. Her skull struck the hard, unforgiving rock with brutal, devastating force. The impact stopped her flight instantly. For a fraction of a second, she hung pinned against the cold black stone. A spray of bright red blood splashed against the wall behind her head, painting a terrible, dark stain on the ancient rock. Then, gravity took over. Elara dropped. She slid down the smooth black wall. Her body hit the dark stone floor at the base of the wall with a soft, quiet, terrible thud. She crumpled into a tiny, motionless pile of torn clothes, dirt, and blood. Her head rested awkwardly against the cold stone. Her arms and legs lay completely still at unnatural angles. Her pale eyes were closed.
