(A/N: I am bored, so I write. I wouldn't expect one every day, though. Sorry.)
-------------------------
Can light exist without darkness?
Can good thrive without evil?
Look within your soul.
Pure and holy relies upon us to live.
We control the equilibrium.
We have always been the hunted.
One day, I know, we will become the hunter.
----------------------------
"Fool! Ignorant fool!"
As the death knight regains consciousness, the Lich King is looking over the edge of the balcony, his deathly pale eyes sweeping the land of the Scarlet Crusade. Realizing what he had done, the death knight kneels before the Lich King, awaiting his punishment.
"You have one chance for redemption in my eyes."
"Yes master."
Then, a shadow enveloped him as image after image was portrayed in his mind.
Scarlet Crusade. Citizens. Death. Suffering.
Kill them
.
With a nod, the death knight walked over to a bone gryphon, seemingly waiting for him, and got on.
As soon as he did, he was rushed towards the ground, wind flying through him, blinding him until a sudden stop. When he opened his eyes, he was ground level with the scourge base, Ebon Hold floating high above him.
"Come here, death knight."
Turning around, the death knight began walking towards a fearsome man, on a horse that looked like it came from oblivion itself, with a red hue emanating from it. The man had a helmet that covered most of his face, but a sense in his mind told the death knight that this man was a human, and a force to be reckoned with.
"Before you go and perform the will of the Lich King, you must obtain a steed to help you with that deed of destruction. Come, let me take you to the shadow realm."
And with that, he placed a hand on the death knight's head, and everything went black, then slowly took shape again in his eyes, but with a charred color. He heard the man whisper something in his ear. He nodded, then began to walk down a slope thirty feet long, twenty feet wide, leading out into two pathways, one going into an unkempt mine shaft, the other leading to a stable kept by the Scarlet Crusade. The death knight began to scan the area, looking for the man he was supposed to find to complete his quest for his steed. Pulling out his sword, he began to run towards an open area towards the stables. Suddenly, a startling cry erupted from behind him, and he spun around, preparing himself for a fight to the death.
Sparks flew as blades collided, and the two knights, one of death and one of life, sparred for their lives.
The death knight started on the defensive, blocking and parrying all blows sent by the paladin. As the paladin kept advancing, the death knight kept retreating, until his back reached a tree. Smirking, the paladin infused his blade with a holy power before performing a sweeping strike, in attempt to decapitate the death knight.
He was mistaken.
Performing a dazzling flip, the death knight pushed off the tree limiting his movement, flipped over the paladin, striking his exposed neck line with a sweeping strike. Crying in pain, the paladin turned his horse around and charged for the death knight. Acting swiftly, he side-rolled past the horse and began a quick slashing motion at the paladin, putting him on the offensive. Then, he saw his advantage.
The paladin showed fear. His eyes were tense, pupils dilated.
With a smirk of his own, his eyes took upon the frosty blue they had when he had slaughtered the female in the training ring. He began slashing at the horseman with a blinding speed, tearing away at his blade and his shield. With a cry, the death knight threw a two-handed slash that tore the shield in two, and crushing the paladin's arm. The death knight took the paladin's arm, and threw him off his steed. Standing over him, victoriously, he uttered something so cold, so dark, that the light left the paladin and his warhorse, leaving them a grayish hue in the shadow realm.
Yet, when the paladin looked up at him, he was serene in his eyes.
"I have failed. Let the light take me."
With a harsh tone, the death knight replied:
"Morec, House of Rivendare, I relieve you of your duties."
And that was that.
Mounting upon the horse, the death knight returned to the scourge base, still in the shadow world. After reaching the middle of the camp, the fiery horse reappeared, and his rider as well.
"Well done."
With that, he placed his hand upon the death knight's brow again, and he was returned to the world, and they were both upon their steeds.
"Surely, you must name your horse. And while your at it, tell me your name, son."
Looking at the horseman, the death knight replied:
"The horse is Kurai."
"And your name...?"
"My name is no longer Lichreaver. My name is
Duroth Lightbane
."

I'm sorry...
You didn't deny it though. /wink
You are a very clever little girl. :)
I deny any horse-related fantasy, simply because I don't (insert terrible innuendo here).
