In Legend of Amber
Derek is on a patrol with two of his guards: Chiro and Tommy. They are attacked by Flames, who kills Tommy. Derek and Chiro fight him, but are soon surrounded by Flames army of Shadow-warriors and Derek is forced to leave Chiro to fight alone, so he can warn the King and Queen about Flames.
