When I came to, I was lying in bed in the infirmary. My hands were handcuffed together. "Urgh… my head, what happened?" I managed to say after waking up. "Si! Is that you?" Art turned around and asked after he heard me, standing beside him was Bill and Mr Chronos.

"Who else would it be?" I answered.

"Yeah it's him." Art commented, before walking off.

"How are you feeling, Simon?" Mr Chronos asked, placing his hand on my shoulder. "I feel fine." I replied, feeling annoyed I asked "but can someone explain why I'm handcuffed in the infirmary?" 

"You went nuts and attacked Alfonso." Bill started. "He's in critical condition at the hospital right now." Bill gave me a look of pity.

"I did what!?!" I said, in disbelief of my own actions.

"Let me explain….." Art said, sitting next to me.

A Few Moments earlier

Arthur's POV

"SHUT UP!!! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Bill and myself heard Simon scream while we were in the middle of trying out different mana weapons manipulation. We dropped everything and rushed to him.

"Si, is everything ok?" Bill asked, panicking.

Si, clutching his head with one hand replied " Go….. away! Please! I don't want you to get hurt!" Gesturing us to keep away with the other hand. Then like the big idiot he was Alfonso, seeing Simon's state came from across the room to pick on Simon. I felt a large sensation of menacing mana pressure coming from Simon, as that muscle brained idiot continued to bully Simon I could hear him quietly whisper something, probably trying to tell Alfonso to get away.

But he pushed Simon and said "Stop ignoring me peasant! I am royalty and you must bow to me."

All of the sudden Simon's hand that was clutching his head grabbed Alfonso's neck. "Me bow to you? What an utter joke!" Simon said in a rough gruff voice, followed by a high pressure of mana coming from him. The moment I heard the voice I knew it wasn't Simon.

"You're gonna pay for this Peasant! I'm gonna beat the living crap outta you" Alfonso threatened, not understanding the situation he was in

"Oh shaddap!" The entity in Simon's body said before throwing Alfonso to the wall on the other side.

"You're a hundred years too early if you think you can beat me." It said after Alfonso crashed into the wall.

I stood frozen in fear, it was the first time I was so afraid of someone and that someone was my best friend who I loved like a brother. Simon took a big breath and said in a loud voice "After thousands of years, I am finally free! Hahahaha blood, murder and Darkness.

How wonderful! I can finally unleash Chaos in the world. Hahahaha"

Alfonso, who had recovered from the pile of rubble said "Alright Peasant! That was a good throw, but it was just luck. I'm gonna make you regr-"

Without a chance to finish Simon cut him off mid-sentence by striking him on the neck once before throwing him on the ground and repeatedly beating him without giving a chance to fight back.

This went on for a while, none of us tried to step in as we were too scared to do anything. "THAT'S ENOUGH SIMON!" Mr Chronos shouted as he descended from above(since when can he fly?)

which snapped me out of my petrification. Simon got up fist all bloody, turned towards Mr Chronos and said "Or what time mage?"

"What have you done with the original owner of that body?" Mr Chronos demands.

"You mean the brat? He was WEAK! I put him into a long sleep. Hahahaha" The Entity replied.

"Well, I'm gonna need you to switch back." {Chronostasis} Mr Chronos cast a time spell that seems to immobilise Simon.

"Now Narcisa!" Mr Chronos shouted, a lady wearing a black jumpsuit placed her hand on Simon's head and chanted a spell, afterwards Simon's body flopped on the ground like a rag doll.

Simon's POV

I was dumbfounded after listening to what Art said. It felt like I had been violated from the inside.

"His father Alfonso Sr is asking for your immediate arrest and execution. Saying your very existence is dangerous."

Mr Chronos said. "The council's verdict is leaning in that direction, though they have a trial for you but you are very likely to be found guilty" he finished giving me a look of sadness, "Simon, I will not lie to you. I'm afraid there's nothing I can do." He gave me a look that said "I'm sorry."

"I'm going to die?" I said out loud. The thought of it actually scared me. 

"Well…. Maybe it's for the best'' I said. " I wasn't born a mage, maybe I wasn't meant to be one."

"No!" Art grabbed my shoulder trying not to cry, he continued "you may not be one but you were as talented as any one of us. And….*sniff*...and…*sniff*....." He started bawling like a little baby and hugged me.

"When's the trial?" Bill asked. "Tomorrow. They want it done as quickly as possible." Mr Chronos said, looking like he's about to cry.

"NO!" Art shouted loudly, wiping his tears and said "I will get my father to help, maybe come to a compromise." 

"Art, just stop!" Mr Chronos stopped him from continuing "there's nothing we can do… your father has also tried his best to vouch for him but nothing can be done. The council as well as the Senate decided Simon will be executed once the trial ends.

"So I guess this is goodbye…." I said, they gave me a hug. "I'm gonna miss you guys." I told them as tears streamed down my face. "We'll….*sniff* we'll miss you too!" They cried. I spent a few minutes in tears in their arms.
