Wounds streaked his gaunt cheeks. Wavy hair matted with blood. Slashed chest, arms pierced several times--hours of fighting plunged the Champion into weariness no human could endure. So be it, I am ready. One swift stroke of a silver blade across my neck and I turn to dust and bone. My soul will burn for all eternity.

Michael's thoughts turned to the woman he would always love.

My Guardian ... my love, from the first moment I saw you, I was yours forever. I couldn't tell you about this. I couldn't put you in danger again. His fading mind turned to the motivation behind his vengeance. Lukas, my precious gift, I have always loved you. I promised myself that the bastards would pay!

This vampire could thrust and parry with the best swordsmen of any dimension. He had centuries of practice. Michael raised his blade for what he figured would be the last time. The weary Champion felt a strange sensation, as if an impermeable shield covered his vulnerable heart.

"Is it finally over?" he shouted to the clouded heavens. "I signed away salvation a year ago! Have I at least made amends for some small fraction of my past?"

A resonant "no" echo through the vampire's conscience. No matter how many good deeds he did, a special spot awaited him in Hell. Michael had done so much damage during his long existence that he'd never earn deliverance from damnation. But as much as he thumbed his nose at death, he feared the finality of it.
