Max ran up the stairs, the others trailing behind him as he raced to find the one responsible for Glenn's death. “Ozzie!! Get your fat butt out here and fight!!!” He ran past the bodies that laid on the floor, past the crumbled statues, the torn tapastries and the rusted sword displays that decorated the castle. He was beyond all fear now.

‘The ape’s new allies have technolegy that rivals our own. I fear that Azala with not stop even in light of this. We may win some battles, but the apes, will win the war. If only he would see reason, that the humans and reptites can co-exist, and not in a ‘human/slave, reptite/master’ enviroment. But Azala is blind to the truth. I know where this fortress came from. It was built by a human, named Magus. It fell from the sky, and landed on this hill. Lord Baren, the first of the reptites, had the palace redecorated to his liking.’

“So, Magus is responsible for the reptites...how ironic.”

Max ran through the halls, killing anything that resisted him. “Ozzie!! Where are you!!!”

‘The apes are advancing towards the cave. I fear that they will soon stand at the steps of the fortress. Three of them intrest me very much. They are unlike the other humans.They seem more, intelligent, more resourceful, more advanced. Azala has stolen a device from an ape they call “Kino”. He seems to be the mate of their leader, Ayla. It seems to belong to these three “Magic Ones”. I have heard them talk to each other. There is a male and two females of their kind. The male is one they call, “Crono”. He seems to be their leader. A female dressed in white is called, “Marle”. She seems to be a favorite of the male. The other female is called, “Lucca”. Strangely, she seems to be the smartest one off the three, yet she is not their leader. The one, “Crono”, appears to be the strongest, so, it does even out.’

“So the boy is the one who defeated Azala. Intresting.”

Janus came back to the others, shaking his head. “I can’t find him. Max has disappeared.” That's when they heard a faint scream come from the back.

“My guess would be follow the chaos and trail of bodies,” Nadia said sarcastically as she ran off in the direction of the scream.

‘The three “Magic Ones” have defeated Nizbel. Azala has retreated back to the lair. The future looks bleak for our race. Our scientists have detected a large object headed straight for our fortress. They say, that if it hits, we will all persih. Of course, Azala ignores their warning, and continues his war. The “Red Star” as we’ve come to call it, grows closer every day. We don’t know what will happen to us. Will we defeat the apes and rule this world? Or will the humans win, and conquer the planet? The things I have seen indicate that the humans will rule the world, not the reptites as Azala claims.’

“The reptites lost because of three children? Incredible.”

The team searched the castle for any sign of Max or Ozzie, and found none. “He’s nowhere to be found. I don’t get it, where could either of them be?”

‘The humans have reached the fortress, the Red Star is near, and the end is at hand. I can only pray for mercy if the humans find me. They have broken through the defeses and........’

‘The Star is falling towards the fortress. Azala is gone and the humans have won. I have taken refuge inside the cave and continue this record of the events that transpire. It is only a matter of time now.’

‘The Star has fallen. A creature not of this world rode inside of the object. The humans call it “Lavos”, Big Fire. The name is appropriate for it. I now must leave this place as it no longer can ensure my safety. This is probably the last time I will write. I only hope that this information call help whoever finds this record.’

“Lavos. And now Tykotious, the master of Lavos. The humans will rule forever.”

Suddenly, Max burst into the chamber, the oak door hitting the ground with a thud. “Games up Ozzie!!”

Ozzie turned to Max and sighed. “You’ve already won, human...history comtinues to repeat itself..." An evil grin found it's way on to his lips. "But that doesn’t mean I can’t take a few of you with me!!” Ozzie jumped at Max, ready to rip him apart, and slammed right into Illumina. He stiffened, rolled his eyes, and fell then to the ground.

Ozzie, the last Mystic general, was dead.

I know, short chapter...but it didn't exactly need much to it to get the message I want written; history shall always repeat itself, and those who have evil intent will fall.
