I, Guardian

"W-what? No, don't leave!" He moved towards her as she began to back out.

Let me take control.
Err..wha-
Now.

While Corona was generally much more polite and the switch of personalities was typically a mutual decision, it was forced this time. His eyes flashed golden for a second as Corona took mental control. The change in personality was quite obvious, as he became a lot more mature and calm looking.

"..Arwen?"

He seemed unsure of what to do, he seemed to know who she was, but it all seemed so strange.

"It.. It's Corona... do you remember?" He looked at her with worry, almost as if he didn't expect her to say yes. Paul continually questioned Corona at this point, but like always he never answered. He was really starting to believe that Corona was more than just some other personality. Was Corona an actual living being?

"Uhh.. it's a long story. Right now, I'm in this kid's body. I'm training him." He walked over so that he stood right next to her. "How did you get here? I thought.. you were gone..." he looked at her with sorrow in his eyes.

Paul had also gone berserk at this point, he kept trying to get Corona to tell him what was going on. He didn't have much luck in that department, though.

He held his hand up to her cheek, only for it to go right through. He seemed quite annoyed with this, he forgot that he only could have done that if he was in his own body, a mortal body such as Paul's didn't have the affinity to the spiritual plane like he did.

"It may have been some sort of demonic poison. They are known for being made purely for torture, especially beyond death."

He looked away and crossed his arms, trying to recall what happened one-thousand years ago.

"The poison had already taken your vitals when I caught up to you, I couldn't do anything. Not even Elazul(*))could cure it. " His eyes widened, then he relaxed, closing his eyes. "I remember.. that was the day I meant Rath(**). I ended up chasing him across half the world, it was then that we fought, and he beat me pretty badly. He then decided to try and take my mind, but my mind was stronger.. and I did the only thing I could, I sealed him away within my own mind.."

Corona sighed, those were pretty bad days for him. How many people had been slaughtered when he lost control of Rath.. he didn't know..

"Rath eventually broke free. But not only that, he turned against Satan. He actually rounded up his own team of demons and attacked Hell. The Material Plane went haywire and the humans became even more corrupted than they already were."


(* Elazul is another Arch-Guardian, similar to Corona. Elazul is much older, however, and is/was Corona's best friend and mentor. Arwen would have met him a few times, as well.

** Rath is short for De'Rathazamazillion, a powerful greater demon and one of Satan's lieutenants. Throughout Corona's story, he was the major enemy. At one point, he breaks away from Satan, believing that he should be lord of darkness. A three-way fight began between him, Hell, and Heaven. This left a great scar on the world and caused humans to become alot more corrupted than they already were, resulting in the world as it is now)
