Zeke vs Raphael Part 2

Raphael ran forward at Zeke and tried to hit him. Zeke blocked as Raphael ran past. They both spun and wen low and their weapons met. Zeke spins the other way and tries to take Raphael's head. Raphael pulls his stick up and catches the sword. He does a cartwheel without using his hands, and goes to jab. Zeke catches it in the stomach. He drops to one knee, as the pole stuck out of him. Raphael removed the pole with a quick crunch, splooch, and then the pole was gone. 1

Zeke couldn't die here. It wouldn't work, he just had to finish his job. "What have I gotten myself into?" he thought. The hole sealed up some and Raphael put his hand down. 2

"What was that for?" Zeke asked.3

"I like you, you're a good fight. I want to play with you more."4

"No one plays with me," said Zeke as he lifts up and thrust his saber into Raphael's stomach.  5

A look of discontent, discomfort, and many other crossed his face. He put his hand out and began lifting Zeke and himself into the air. 6

"What?" Zeke said.7

"I'm taking you with me," said Raphael with a sneer on his face now. 8

Zeke throat tightened up and he grabbed at it.He began to lose his breath and a lump began to form as he could slowly feel his neck begin to pull away from itself. Pain surged through his body and utter desperation came to him. He did the one thing he could think of, he started to pull the sword up. The grip loosened on him and Raphael cried out in pain, and passed out.9

They both dropped with a thud and Zeke picked up Raphael and took him back to his house. When Raphael woke up, he was patched up, and laying on a bed in a tan brick house. Zeke was sitting beside him.10

"Why?" asked Raphael.11

"I want you to help me take out the Empire."12

"I owe you one," said Raphael, "I will help you out, just one thing."13

"Yes?"14

"Can you keep your sword out of me?"15

"Sure." 16
