"We're about to have an interesting evening!" Kara shouted with a sarcastic smile against the wind in her face as she neared the castle. "I need you to help stall while I hide this girl and get her stable! I didn't even have a few seconds to assess our pursuers until I was already in the air, so I don't know what we're up against! It doesn't feel terrible, but you never know!
I just need you to hover between me and whatever the hell those things are that are following us! Assist anyone as needed! I hate to ask all this of you, but I can't help at the moment! Leaowynne is already on the front and Valerie is in pursuit as well! Don't do anything drastic unless necessary! I don't need my field catching on fire!" With that, Kara dove onto her balcony and burst into her personal chambers, slamming the thick double doors behind her with fast magic. Her chamber had more guard spells, wardens, and barriers on it than some countries had put together. |
As Kara disappeared into her chambers, Sorida turned, standing upon the floating platform she had created. A grimace found her features as the thought of battle enveloped her. She could fight, that was not the problem. She was just not as comfortable doing such outside of dreams. That was where she was most in her place. Here in The Realm, her powers were limited, her forms few. She had certainly been training but... Her thought process was actually over and done with quickly. In a moments passing time she took off, sprinting through the air and muttering an old language, the same type of circular matter platform that she had been standing upon appearing beneath her feet in a smaller shape each time her stride touched air at a regular space, slowly descending as she came nearer where Thalian stood. |
Kitara gaped up at the sky as she smoothed her fur with one hand mostly because her hands were just twitching with nervousness. She was outside now and the sight that met her was frightening. Kara had just escaped inside and there were people around she didn’t know and it looked like there was a dragon in the sky!
“I-I remember it!” Kitara exclaimed to Leaowynne, trying to shut out everything so she could concentrate. It was hard but she eventually managed to and she reached for her wand as she stopped trembling, her face almost calm now. |
Hollow was falling out and in and was stuck between going to sleep or was it waking up? She was in a familiar pain, but it hurt less. She heard a roar and knew who it was, but was she dreaming or hearing things?
Fang slammed his head into the small body infront of him. He tried to claw at the wings on his back. He didnt have time for this. He needed to get to Hollow quick. He pushed the boy towards the earth and tried to fly on, but faster. Zeke jumped off Fangs back into the air and faced Thalian. He drew his sword and assesed his situation. They were obviously outnumbered and they were all Valrae, but he wasnt going to back down. "What do you want with Hollow!" |
The acceleration, though smooth, was sudden enough to jerk Aideen back into the present. She tried not to cry out. Not to lose control. Her memories of the previous night were still very hazy, but she’d lost control then. She knew that much. And now there was more trouble, threatening Valerie's friends this time. Aside from Valerie and Rolgen, the elemental wasn't sure who she herself could count as a friend, even among the names she recognized.
She tightened her grip on Lanna, focusing. Remaining in control was a trick, whatever the danger was. As much as she did not trust Thalian, she did not want him to die. When she finally looked up at the sky, a bright yellow face peaked out from under the hood, and the wings, tinged with the same color, flared to twice their normal size. There was a monster chasing Thalian through the air! Was that truly a dragon? Whatever it was, it could be no worse than the monster who had come to take her away. She did not want to think about what could be worse than the molten elemental. Still, it was a monster. It was after Thalian. Her eyes flashed as she stared at it, and gritting her teeth, she almost growled at it, "Just burn. Just. Burn." |
Thalian felt the familiar energy of Sorida close to him, but it was too late to soften the blow of this dragon and his rider as they collided with his body in mid-air. Everything seemed to flow in slow-motion. All sound was drowned except for the beating of his own heart. It felt as if someone or something was trying desperately to keep him afloat as he fell backwards towards the earth. His ponytail came free and his long dark hair whipped and curled about his pale face in a slow and surreal sort of dance.
Hollow... He felt his wings tear slightly, and the pain released the slow-motion scene back into lightning speeds as his arm came free with his sword drawn in front of him in a defensive position. He wasn't quick enough to stop the dragon, but he managed to parry the sword of the stranger who had lept from the beast's back to bore down on top of him. Thalian's face raged and contorted into a fierce grin as his eclipse onyx pendant flashed brighter than a sun's corona. Strange light and shadows began radiating out from his person as he drew closer and closer to the ground under the weight of his attackers. When their bodies finally met the earth, there was a flash and a long pause--- but soon, a shock wave that rivaled a moderate earthquake erupted from where they had fallen, blowing everything and everyone backwards where they stood. Lanna reared hard from fear in mid-charge, hurling Valerie and Aideen forward over her head to tumble sprawling through the air. Valerie managed to recoil out of her tumble in a last minute barrel-role, snatching Aideen in the air just before a deadly landing and rebounded feet first off the ground straight into the air like a bullet just barely out of the path of the shock wave that overtook Lanna beneath them. "Hang on!" She shouted to Aideen. Leaowynne's eyes grew terribly wide. She began to grow brighter than a divine flame, unfolding her own set of angelic wings. She followed Valerie's lead and snatched Kitara up close to her chest before soaring straight up towards the sky to avoid being overtaken by the blast. She looked like a comet as she carried herself and Kitara over the sphere of the blast cloud and out of harm's way. |
Aideen yelped as Lanna bucked, and again as Valerie grabbed her. The elemental tightly grasped the Valrae's arm, keeping her wings unfurled. Strangely, she wasn't frightened of falling. Of monsters and explosions, the shaking earth and so much endless fighting, she was frankly terrified, and Valerie carried a very hot, very pale yellow creature beneath her. But Aideen could not be completely lost to fear, because something about the sky felt right. Something about being in the sky felt right.
As tightly as she hung on to Valerie, she hung on to that one good feeling with an even more desperate grip. He found himself on the seashore more quickly than he could have imagined. Perhaps distance was illusory in the Realm, or perhaps it was just that the ocean called to him the more he walked, and the less he had to stop for drinks from meandering streams and unlikely ponds. The sand was powder soft beneath his feet and for the first time he truly noticed the webbing. It was a strange feeling, the grains on thin sensitive skin, matching nothing in his gradually awakening memory. If his form was strange, the ocean itself was stranger, swirling with colors, some of which he'd never known existed anywhere, much less the sea. But it was a good place. He meditated on it for a while, just watching the colors, before finally wading in. The sea embraced him, giving him air and energy. It felt like home, somehow. It was also full of life, of chatty, colorful fish, grumpy lobsters, serene anemones. They weren't all that unlike the beasts of the field, he realized. Was he to be a shepherd here? He even communed with a small pod of dolphins for a while. They were more intelligent than any creature he'd met, more so even than the horses of the monastery or the mule that pulled the plow. It made for compelling conversation, though much of it was in image and emotion, and difficult to translate. They'd been drifting nearer to the castle, for that was where the currents seemed to run, when a great explosion of light flashed on shore. Startled, Carlow -- for that was what the dolphins had decided to call him -- stopped in mid-swim and stared, treading water. "Well," he finally said to his friends, "I apologize, but I think it's time I went ashore." In response, one dolphin, the leader of the pod, ducked under the naiad, and carried him quickly to a nearby shoal. Carlow thanked the dolphin, and walked in the direction of the disturbance. |
Zeke flew backwards violently, but using his wings he was able to control the tumbling after a while. He slid across the dirt on his feet. He mumbled a few words and dissapeared in a puff of black smoke and appeared again behind the boy. He already had his sword raised to slice his side. Zeke was a demon of the dark and in this environment he was strong.
Hollow moaned and opened her eyes. The pain was a little more bearable, but she still could hardly breath. "Where am I?" Fang lost sight of the fast flying Valrae. He landed on the ground and slithered across the ground in a quick manner. Hollow sometimes left her essense on the ground and he could smell it. His one yellow eye glowed in the dark as his head swished from side to side to make up for the loss of his other eye. |
Thalian, though of a valiant race and noble people, was still a Valrae, and also a child of the dark. His footwork was mesmerizing as he seemed to dance effortlessly in the dark cloud the explosive landing and fight had kicked up. He matched every blow from Zeke's sword with one equally powerful and agile. His sword burst with its strange liquid light and filled the dust with strange pulses of illumination not unlike lightning with every clash of his sword.
His eyes were liquid silver, and burned like two deadly spheres of moonlight out of the shadows. His shadow and wings seemed to swirl around him like separate entities, and his pendant only pulsed bright with every moment. Zeke was a fun match for him. All Thalian knew was this fellow boy was searching for Hollow, and did not appear to have very elegant ways of going about this business. Thalian remained ever-watchful for the dragon as well that he was sure was slithering around in the dark somewhere. And where was the third presence he had felt? Kara remained right next to Hollow, holding her hand while feeding more and more of her own warm spiritual energy into her fragile body. With every passing minute, the pain would lessen and her strength would return. It would sap Kara's spirit as well, but not enough to phase her too badly. There was no other way to heal Hollow without turning her into... well... without turning her into a Valrae. That would be an absolute last resort, only if Kara thought Hollow would slip through her fingers regardless of how much energy she poured into her. She seemed to be getting more lively though, which was very encouraging. Kara was growing a little tired. On top of everything else, bits and pieces of Kara's very deep, dark, and mysterious past were flashing through Hollow's mind. An elder man and woman were being cut down mercilessly by a group of soldiers in strange armor. A young man was being burned and tortured. And then a strange spherical explosion... a ruined city... The fragments flashed by almost irrecognizably the more energy Kara fed into Hollow. Valerie's eyes darted everywhere over the cloud every second, looking for signs of her son. Her grip on Aideen was loosening with her distractedness, but surprisingly enough, Aideen didn't seem to get any heavier. Was she floating on her own? Leaowynne held Kitara very close, looking at the burning blinking cloud with great concern. She could see nothing within it except strange shadows of distorted humanoid figures illuminated by the pulses of lighting inside the swirling dust. She hoped and prayed Thalian was alright. And where was Valerie and her passenger? It was hard to make out anything through the dust that smeared the field and the horizon beyond. |
The thing about alchemy is that it was straining on Sorida. Transformagraphy was a natural art to her, but alchemy was an art she had stumbled upon and was still finessing her own style. It was a toll upon her body, but when done correctly, it was extremely powerful. Her subconcious took over for her platforms, becoming a natural process that followed her feet, the flat, black sperical states of matter appearing with her every step. This subconcious ability left her free to focus. She was about ten feets distance out of range of the fight and her eyes moved, following every movement while she brought her hands into flowing but quick movements. Slowly, her whole entire form began to blur even more intensely than normal, her eyes irises, not her pupils, where what grew; consuming her eyes in a dark gold. Her pupils dialated to pinpricks and her short hair flipped about wildly. A trail of flame began to follow her hands as a shape took form wherever she drew them. |
Hollow could hardly stand the flashes of memory. "Please stop.." She hated it so much. "STOP!" She eventually screamed. She would still be in pain, but it was nothing that her own body wouldnt be able to handle.
Zeke kept up with his sword fight. His opponent was the strongest yet, but that didnt mean anything. He regretted not putting armor over his wings before he left. He heard a crack and then a ripping sound. He looked over at his black feathered wings and noticed his enemy had taken a good chunk out of them. He didnt let it distract him for to long. Fang came upon the castle walls and was angry at the magic that surrounded it. He couldnt tell where Hollow was exactly, but he had a general direction and that was good enough for him. Fang snorted and purple smoke erupted from his nostrils. He felt the wall infront of him and started to bang his head against it. The bricks started to come loose and crumble around him. |
The sky was a good place. The longer Aideen clung to Valerie, the more she realized this, and the lighter her grip became. She had wings, didn't she? What else were they for, but to fly?
Some blurred memory from the fight with the other elemental returned then. She had flown. It hadn't been far from the floor, but... but she had. She was fire, somehow lighter than air in spite of the flesh that helped bind her energies together, bright in the eternal night sky. She could fly. She let go of the Valrae, mentally flexing the nerves of energy at her back. The wings responded quickly and easily. They had been all along. The hood fell back, and she opened the sparkling eyes she hadn't realized she'd closed. Far below she saw disaster and injury but above... Above it all she felt almost as safe as she had in the hearth. "Oh, Valerie..." she murmured. |
"And just what, exactly, do you think YOU'RE doing..." said a very snide and dangerous voice only feet away from Fang.
It was Michael. His face was barely discernable behind his dripping flaming hair that reached past his shoulders. His eyes swirled between crimson reds and ebon blacks, and his two-handed sword gleamed in his loose and ready grip. The black robes and cloak he always wore billowed dangerously about his person, and his grin was fierce and unforgiving. "You know... banging your head against this particular castle isn't exactly in your best interest. I know a good castle in the next country over that might be more suited to your unecessary skull-bashing. However, if you insist, you may practice splitting your head open on my sword first." He snickered and grimaced as his own set of blazing wings came leaking out slowly from under his cloak. Swirls of demonic flames were lapping around his feet and knees, climbing steadily higher up his body. Michael looked up at Kitara and Leaowynne to make sure they were out of the reach of his climbing flames before he let them loose too soon. Kitara had already witnessed his fury once, only this time she was not his target. Michael's gaze pierced the good eye of this silly dragon. "Well?" he asked. "Are you ready?" Kara pitied the girl's cries, but was grateful for them none-the-less because they signified her strength was returning. "Not much longer now..." she whispered in a comforting voice near Hollow's ear, her white hair brushing the side of Hollow's face very gently. Valerie tore her eyes from the battle below to look at Aideen, who seemed to be floating effortlessly in the air right beside her. "Aideen! Be careful! Don't try to do anything drastic too soon! If your body isn't ready, you could fall! I couldn't bear to watch you fall to the earth the way Thalian did!" Valerie was genuinely concerned. Thalian kept his eyes on Zeke, but he felt Sorida's presence growing ever nearer. Please do not tear into here too violently... He thought. If his concentration was broken too much, he could lose sight and mind of his opponent and suffer dire consequences as a result... |
Her eyes caught the slithering reptile that exited from the black cloud, beginning it's assailment on the castle. They flickered in it's direction and a snarl found her lips as she furthered the spell, her movements growing quicker. The shape was somewhat of a star, overlayered with several more, burning in the sky as it darkened. At last minute Sorida rushed forth, diving through the star and to the ground. As she did so, the flames shattered like glass, following her movements in shards. They left trails of flames behind each shard which encircled the dragon and herself in a glowing dome, the trails crossing over eachother and setting as a strong barrier. Sorida had all but disappeared. In her place stood the large arcanian beast, holding similar appearances to an Akita wold save the fact that she was just a slight few sizes smaller than the dragon. Her fur was a dark black with hints of honeyed bloned highlighting it. Her eyes burned a malevolent gold as she set her large paws into the ground. This was one of two forms she could take outside of dreams. Both were mencaing, but this one more so. She waited for the dragon to realize the trap it was in and notice her as well. |
Thalian's thoughts seemed to reflect on the action as Sorida suddenly disappeared. Her attention was now focused elsewhere.
"Whew...that could have been bad." he sighed for a moment. This brief paused barely allowed him to doge a swipe at his head from Zeke. Michael noticed Sorida and continued to keep the beast's attention until it was completely surrounded by himself and the now rather menacing Sorida. Even Michael was impressed. "Hey lizard! Wanna go?!" He shouted challengly. |
Aideen shook her head, still stuck in the wonder of it. "I won't," she replied, starting to wonder how exactly she was supposed to land. She would have to land at some point. Her energy would not hold out forever. "I'll try to stick close to you."
Carlow simply stood and watched, standing on the shore a safe distance from the castle. Strange lights flickered in the sky, and the sounds of fighting drifted in from the grounds. He had no idea what was going on, or who was fighting what, exactly. There was no reason to join into a battle with a purpose he couldn’t discern, or an enemy he couldn't identify. He never had been quick to fight, or to anger, which had helped him a great deal in the monastery. Now, he was beginning to realize that this temperament might not be virtue after all. |
Fang swished back to look at Micheal and was about to come after him till another joined and formed a menacing dome around him. Fangs yellow eye looked back and forth at the two enemies. a toothy grin appeared on his scaly face. He started to pace back and forth with his head held high. The dragon let out a demonic laugh. He focused on Micheal and put his head low to the ground. lavender colored magma flowed out of his mouth and singed the ground below.
This one was going to be fun. "Bring it!" laughed the dragon as more smikes emerged from under his scales. Fang regretted not dressing in armor, but his scales were tough enough. He rolled into a spiked ball and headed for them. Zeke clashed his weapon with Thalians leg. "What do you want with Hollow!" He glared at the older boy as he began to grow long black nails from the hands holding his weapon. "It would do you well to give her back." A single drop of glittered water fell from Zeke's eye. |
A low menacing sound filled the now sound proof barrier, emanating from deep within Sorida. Fangs glinted in the light that danced around them as she watched the dragon ball and spike towards Michael. Kara was practically family to her, which made Michael practically family. Her claws dug into the earth before she let out a nasty snarl and bounded towards the dragon. |
The sand had worked?! Arianna couldn’t believe it. Now the creature was blind and attacking anything in front of him. This was her element, her moment when the target was unaware that death was approaching. She held her blade, ignoring the hot pain from the shards. With her free hand she scooped up as much sand as she could.
This was the moment, she sprinted and threw the sand at the beasts head. It hit the left side of it’s, well what used to be a face. Then she threw her knife into it’s left eye and leaping over it she planted her sword in the center of where black glass was starting to form. Holding on to the sword it gave a sudden jerk and she heard glass breaking. The creature swung it’s head violently and Arianna almost lost her grip on the sword. It came loose from the creature and she hit the arena wall, still clutching the sword in her hand. |
Kitara had been concentrating and doing just as Leaowynne said when the fight just turned crazy and she was snatched up into the sky, where she most definitely did not belong. She looked around, her long hair flipping about in the currents of the air. She wanted to hide from the fight…but, she wanted to help too! But what could she do from way up in the sky? She had ears not wings. She looked down at her wand, unsure of what help it would be.
She twisted around to look at Leaowynne. “What’s going on? What can we do?!” She didn’t want to see anyone die, but she didn’t have any power to do anything! Sorphiem had by now circles around the castle, far out of sight as he almost seemed to meld into the background. Now he sat some distance away as he watched the fight. He would make his entrance after he knew which side would win, and he had no preference on which side that would be. But he was content to wait now and when the fighting died down, that was when he could go down and snatch Hollow away! |
Michael flashed as he put up a shockwave sort of force between him and the approaching dragon. He saw Sorida take off right on the dragon's heels... or... tail. Whichever. So now he had a pissed off dragon AND The Realm's topmost dream elemental tearing in his direction.
Great... He thought to himself as he braced for the impact. Leaowynne turned and saw the strange sphere with the dragon barreling towards Michael with Sorida in hot pursuit. That many energies colliding so close to the castle could end in disaster. "KITARA!" Leaowynne shouted. "Focus your levitating spell as HARD as you can on the dragon bounding towards Michael! QUICK! Send him flying!" Leaowynne's hands were full and she couldn't focus properly, else she would have done it herself. But, she had complete faith in Kitara. Her powers were stronger than she gave herself credit for. She also knew that sending the dragon sprawling would daze him enough for Sorida and Michael to get him under control. I'll be having a serious conversation with Talon after all this... Thalian buckled slightly from the swipe on his leg, but he barely faultered in his footwork while whirling around in the dust cloud with his young enemy. He really was young, Thalian noticed. He began to ease up on the power of his assaults, but only quickened his speed as he circled around the boy, coming at him from all directions. He thinks that I'm trying to kidnap Hollow. He thinks I'm trying to hurt her. Thalian finally realized. Everything was happening so fast and yet it all seemed to be taking place in slow-motion. "Hold!" Thalian called out between blows. "What do YOU want with Hollow?! I swear if you're here to hurt her, on my life, I cannot allow you to do so! We're trying to---" He dodged another swing at his face from Zeke's sword. "HELP HER!" He finally managed to finish as he parried another crushing blow that only made the crater beneath them get even bigger. He only hoped Zeke had heard him. Valerie bit her bottom lip nervously. She wanted so badly to dive in to aid her son, but it would dishonor him if she came between him and his opponent now. It was a fair match and a fair duel so far. She could not see where Lanna had run off to either in the midst of all the dust being kicked up by the fight. She also felt a very strange presence somewhere nearby. No... TWO presences... she thought. One was near the shore, and the other had swept towards the castle. She wondered if Aideen could feel them too. She wanted to split up and have Aideen go investigate the presence on the shoreline while she dashed to the castle, but she wasn't sure just how confident the girl felt yet. "Aideen?" She finally asked, loudly over the sound of battle. "I feel uneasy and unfamiliar spiritual energies around us. One is near the shoreline, and does not seem too dangerous. Would you go seek out whatever might be causing it?" She finished hesitantly, and then quickly continued. "I felt a dark presence near the castle that didn't seem to come from battle, and I would like to go investigate, but I won't leave you alone if you would rather I didn't." The creature was furious. He was nothing but a raging and boiling mass of tar, blood, and bone now, charging around madly in search of his irritating opponent. He heard her slam into a far wall, and he followed the sound. This would be his final charge at the girl, and he would give it all he had! A river of boiling black glass billowed out from under his feet where he dashed onward in his blind rage. Knight looked down at the scene, still and cold as ice. He was trying to focus on the unknown activity going on at his castle, but at the same time he was wondering if this pathetic girl would finally take down the beast. He was more impressed than he would ever allow himself to portray, so he became all the more rigid as he shouted menacingly down to Arianna. This was only her first physical test, and he would not give her any chance to get cocky before she was ready. She was cocky enough as it was. "GIRL! FINISH THAT THING NOW LEST I COME DOWN THERE AND KILL YOU SLOWLY WITH MY BARE HANDS! I AM NOT A KIND PERSON WHEN I AM BORED!" He wasn't a kind person period. |
Hollow started feeling better, but there was a different sickening feeling inside her now. Something was wrong, but she didnt know what. She couldnt think about anything that could make her feel like this cause there really wasnt anything important to her around. "What's going on?" The question in itself was very vague.
Zeke kept going after Thalian and refused to let his guard down. It could be a trick. "I would never hurt my master you dirty Valrae!" Zeke spoke words into his hand for a split seccond and little lights started to appear before his face. He blew on one of them and like a bullet it shot off. The first one missed and went deep into the ground. "What do you want with Hollow, she would never talk to dirt like you much less ask for something!" He got ready to blow another shard of light into the enemy before him. |
Aideen flew fairly close to Valerie, twitching her wings experimentally, testing herself. It was strange. She felt the wings well enough, but in a detached way, the way one feels hair if it is brushed or tugged, or a fingernail if it is clipped. She still worried about landing, but there was nothing for it. Clearly it would have to be trial and error. Her thoughts were much too inward to sense any foreign presence, if she could at all.
She considered, for a moment, what Valerie asked, and then replied, "Yes. Yes, I think I can do that." With some concentration, she dipped away from the Valrae, toward the shore, but not too close to the ocean's edge. The trick would be landing well away from the water. It was a tentative, circling descent that ended abruptly in an undignified tangle of skirt and cloak and wing. Aideen rolled with the fall, painfully jarring her shoulder on the grass not far from the strange figure on the shore. "Owww." Carlow found himself transfixed on a distant light in the air. This one grew in size and clarity as it flew toward him, until finally it crashed almost in front of him. Fiery wings and a female form, by the looks of it. She reminded him of the angel in his dream, if less confident and dignified. The naiad supposed a crash like that would do that, though. He wasn't about to jump to any conclusions. Still, she looked like she could use a hand. He approached, placing webbed fingers on her shoulder. She shook him off. "Ugh... I’m okay, thank you." "Are you sure, miss? Let me give you a hand, at least." He placed one hand into her gloved one, and between the two of them they pulled her to her feet. She straightened her clothes and twitched her wings, folding them. Her face was startling, glowing a brilliant red and marked by eyes that reminded him somehow of starry skies. And yet, she did look familiar. He shook his head even as his throat caught. This world was strange. He would not jump to conclusions. The stranger had been very helpful until he shook his head, spraying salty water everywhere. It spattered her face, hissing and steaming, leaving black pockmarks on her cheeks and forehead. She cringed and jumped back. "Ow! Please don't do that. Who are you?" He looked so peculiar with his fin-like ears and pale green eyes. Yet why did he look so familiar, in the moonlight? She tried not to be distracted by his minimal clothing. Whatever he was, he was handsome in his own way. "Sorry about that. And... you can call me Carlow, miss. What is this fighting all about?" he asked, staring. How could water affect someone like that? And yet, she did look as though she was burning, somehow. Interesting. "Aideen. My name is Aideen, and I truly don’t know what is going on." At least Carlow didn’t seem threatening. Valerie had been right about that. "Listen... We can stay here until the fighting is over." She could keep an eye on him that way, and besides, it was better not to be alone in the Realm. |
Kitara narrowed her eyes as she gazed down towards the ground and then she could see what Leaowynne also saw; a dragon hurling towards Micheal! She pulled out her wand. “Alright, I’ll do my best!” she exclaimed and raised her wand again, praying she really could do something.
Her eyes narrowed even more as she concentrated on the dragon, but she didn’t close them this time. The dragon was the important thing now. She could feel a crackling energy coming from the wand, making her hand tingle and tiny sparks trailed along the wand’s surface and jumped a bit from its end. The more she concentrated, the more the dragon seemed to slow in its rush towards Michael, or was it just her imagination? The pupils turned to small pinpricks in Kitara’s eyes as they took on a yellowish hue. But she hadn’t sent the dragon back yet! “You know that you can do it, Kitara,” What? It was Kitara’s voice in her head, but was it her inner thoughts or a separate voice as it seemed. But she didn’t have time to think on it now, she concentrated on her spell and suddenly she sent the dragon flying. |
Fang was already throrouly annoyed that he could hardly get to where he was going. Before he was thrown backwards he spotted the girl with a wand. The dragon tumbled on the ground several times and eventually landed with a thud. He looked up a little dazed, but he hadnt been thrown too far. Fang was ready to take this fight to the next level.
He gathered a small amount of energy together and turned back into his human form. He fixed his eye patch and got up. The boy turned around to face the now THREE enemies. Fang darted his look over to Kitara and put his hands together to make signs and then dissapeared in a puff of smoke. In an instant he was right next to Kitara. Fang went for her wand. He wasnt going to hurt her seeing as she probably wouldnt be able to do anything to him anyway. The boy just wanted to get his problem out of her hands. |
