LATER THAT NIGHT

Arcane: *Sleeps peacefully, having Jasmine next to him*...

Jasmine: *has her arms around him, sleeping happily with the man she married*

*Everything was very much perfect...but that peace was broken as someone stalked into the room slowly and shook Arcane softly*

Arcane: Mmm...*slowly stirs awake* Huh? *rubs his right eye* Enrique?

Enrique: Shh...come with me, mi amigo...I was asked by Donovan to get you.

Arcane: Oh...alright...*carefully gets out of bed, not disturbing Jasmine of her sleep*...What did he want me to see?

Enrique: *whisper* Come on...*sneaks out of the room with Arcane following*

Arcane: Why are we sneaking?

Enrique: I don't anyone to wake up...plus, the floor a little creaky.

Arcane: Good point...

*Both sneak into the infirmary, where they finally go flat-footed and enter Donovan's room*

Arcane: I see that you're awake.

Donovan: As are you...*he smiles*

Arcane: Yeah...*yawn*...you could put it that way. What's up?

Donovan: Enrique and I overheard that you're engaged to a pretty vixen. Is that true?

Arcane: Of course! She's a woman of many talents...one of them being the most passionate woman ever, along with her kindness and courage.

Enrique: Told ya buddy!

Donovan: *sigh*......*hands him 5 rings* Anyway, congrats Arcane. You deserve a chance at happiness.

Arcane: Likewise to both of you. May you two find the perfect wife and have a family.

Donovan and Enrique: Thanks.

Arcane: Is there more? *yawn* I've gotta get some sleep...

Donovan: One more thing...*lifts his covers* When Enrique brought me in here, Nurse Bree immediately knew that something like what Klauss had done...getting close to my heart and spine...mostly my spine, then I wouldn't be able to walk again...

Arcane: What?

Enrique: Yeah, it's true man...an X-Ray concluded that there was some nerves pulled out close to his heart. If something like that happens again, POOF!...he's in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

Arcane: Oh man......*his back hits the wall softly* I'm so sorry...this is pretty much my fault.

No......it's not your fault.

Arcane: *!* That voice...*turns around and sees fragments of Archangel*

Archangel: You can never blame your actions for the damage your enemies deal upon you and your friends.

Arcane:......

Archangel: I know how you feel, Arcane...but you can't let something like today bring you down...you're married. *he smiles a little*

Donovan: Wait, how did you know that? And who are you?

Arcane: *!* Right...Donovan, Enrique...this is Archangel...the man that's guided me to who I am right now.

Donovan: Hello.

Enrique: Good Evening.

Archangel: It's a pleasure to know that Arcane's making new friends. *he bows his head slightly* Arcane, may I speak with you in private...?

Arcane: *looks at his friends*

Donovan: Go...we've got it from here.

Arcane: Thanks...*exits the room and walks with Archangel* What's up?

Archangel: Arcane......that man you killed earlier today...how do you feel?

Arcane: You mean Klauss? Well...I feel terrific after finally ridding of him, after he harmed my wife.

Archangel: Well...did you happen to feel any......pains?

Arcane: Other than the wounds that Jasmine, my wife, healed......only one.

Archangel:......This was what I was worried about.

Arcane: Why? What's wrong?

Archangel: You may want to sit down for this...it's very grim.

Arcane: *takes a seat* Okay...spill it.

Archangel: The man that you killed, Klauss......He was your brother...your biological brother.
