Tolkalee stared after Faith for a moment more, then he turned and punched the wall leaving a good sized dent. "Come on let's go," he said walking towards the door.

The man turned to another man within the tower as well, saying something to them. “I’m afraid he’s not here lads, though maybe he’ll pass by” the figure explained to them.

Both Matthew and Cassius put forcefields around the group, not wanting to lose anyone.

Tolkalee took up the rear to make sure that no one lagged behind. He noticed the clock tower ahead and sighed quietly. "Please let Cronos be willing to help us," he said under his breath.

The figure up on the clock tower noticed the group coming towards it. He saw the one the group was looking for. “Well what do you know, Sir Cassius is coming right this way” he said to the group.

Tolkalee looked at the people that were standing at the door and realized that he recognized one of them. "Oh hey, you're the dude that thought we were trying to attack you when we were trying to help you. The dude that tried to blow me up," Tolkalee said to Galahad.

The Knights who came with Tolkalee looked up to see a figure waving at them. “Oh, it’s just Mr. Clockworks himself” Matthew exclaimed while the Knights waved back at him.

The figure jumped down from the Clock Tower, landing safety on both feet. “So, hello again all Knights” the Mr. Clockworks said to them before looking at Tolkalee. “…and you are?”

"You may call me Tolkalee," Tolkalee introduced himself with a bow.

The new figure bowed to him as well. “You can call me Mr. Clockworks”

"Very nice to meet you," Tolkalee said. "Would Cronos happen to be here?"

“Sir Cronos is currently not here, he is at the Royal Building” Mr. Clockworks gestured to the building.

"Pity, well if you see him, please let him know that we will be at Matthew's place, and his help would be greatly appreciated," Tolkalee explained.

Mr. Clockworks nodded. “I will tell him just that” he then went back into the Clock Tower. Matthew turned to the group. “Let’s go, we don’t know how safe it is to just stay here”

(I mean, a sequel might be nice. I'd have to use a different character, though.)

Galahad turned to Tolkalee and smiled. "Ah, yes, I do remember nearly vaporizing you off of the face of this reality! That was fun."

Cassius and Royce raised a brow at Galahad. While Royce turned away, golden caduceuses appeared in Cassius’ eyes.

"Would any of you happen to be Cassius?" Lance asked the group sans his siblings.

“I am” the figure with caduceuses in his eyes answered as he walked to them. “May I ask why are you looking for me?”

"We need you to purify us so that we can go home!" Percy implored.

Cassius looked at the group. “You guys go on ahead, I’ll follow soon” he said to them. When he turned back to the group, one of the caduceuses in his eyes turned silver while the other remained golden. His staff appeared in his right hand. “So…how many of you needs purification” he held the staff tightly.

(I would totally join a prequel. This one is a lot of fun.)

Tolkalee rolled his eye. "Ah, fun. You and I have very different definitions of fun." He followed closely behind.

(Screw it, I’ll make both a sequel and a prequel when this is done XD)

Matthew looked to the group except for Cassius who has to purify the souls. “So…let’s go?” He asked, pointing in the direction of his house.

"Just us three, though I'm not sure about Galley," Percy said, gesturing to her brothers. "He came here when he was living, so I'm not sure what rules apply to him."

Cassius tapped his staff on Percy’s shoulder. “In that case, it’s just you and the other one” he looked at Lance. Golden and silver aura pass from the staff to Percy’s heart. As it comes out, black dust comes out with the aura. Cassius looked up and down at Percy’s body again. “You’re all done…” he then proceeded to do the same thing to Lance.

"Can we take our masks off?" Percy asked, the hint of blue flashing underneath the eye holes of the mask.
"Yeah, I was wondering about that," Lance said. "It's kinda stuffy under here."

Tolkalee nodded to Matthew. "Let's go before some unwanted guests arrive," he turned to Galahad. "Just to warn you some people have been running around, attacking and killing the knights. And the knights that are killed have stronger eviler corrupt versions of themselves, that don't care who is killed and who isn't, that come out. So I warn you to watch your backs."

Galahad pulled out his pistol and shook it lightly. "Understood."

Cassius finished the purification process on Percy. “You can now take your mask off” he tapped his staff on Lance’s shoulder.

Percy lifted her mask. Auburn curls gave way to a round, freckled face with dull blue eyes. Her skin was usually pink from being out in the sun and helping out with the Resistance, but now it was pale. Color slowly began seeping up from her neck and into her face as she watched Lance's purification.
