Dark Age Legends

[Haraldur]

Ellenna said: "We will be travelling towards the north, in an effort to ensure an good outcome in the now unstable areas formerly of the Dark Empire. Hopefully we will be able to aquire a guide."

__________________________________________________________

From a little way away, Haraldur saw the entrance of Zeros' into the tavern. Interesting. What has he been doing this past month? Giant-killing? Searching for the lost weapons? Trying to bring peace to the region?

It might be interesting to find out. Or not. Whatever.

He entered the tavern. His aura reappeared.

"Ah, how are you in Laus this fine day, Zeros', adversary of Jayce and Retan, Lords of the Dark Empire?"

[Zeros']

Zeros' turned and looked at Haraldur.

"Hello Haraldur. Not TOO bad actually. I am sad to say that my master passed away a few weeks ago." He said in a sad tone. I hadn't really liked talking about it at all. "So anyways, why are you here?" Kami-ryu shuffled his feet. Zeros' noticed this and handed him the spear he had.

The second it left Zeros' hand, the dark aura burst forth, threatening to consume all. Kami-ryu quickly focused himself as his cape lashed out, reething with dark power as it quickly enveloped the spear and held down the dark taint the emperor consumed it with during his stay with the weapons.

The special cape had a special power to lock down dark taint. The cape itself wasn't very strong, but prevented most major injuries that threatened to kill him instantly, unless he receives imediate medical attention. The dark cape also had the power to shift into any form he desired. The cape retracted back, placing the spear on Kami-ryu's back.

[Dude Man]

Bite then decieded to talk to Kismet and Frost chose to talk to Zeros'

"Well, if you don't" Bite said to Kismet "Then, we might just be killed off by this guy, and you wouldn't want that to happen, would you?" He says this wile pointing to his Ice Thrower.

"Well, this deamon, could very well, defeat us." Frost was about to ask why he was aiding deamons but then he spoted his wing "So...your a deamon to?" He turned to Kami-ryu "How could you trust a deamon, they're things, from HELL, that's were evil stuff in made and the reason why there is pain and suffering, and the reason why there is evil in the world. I know about you guys trying to find these dark weapons of evil, your trying to wipe out the world, but this world belongs to the Ice Warriors, and you can't take it from us!"

//Oh, and could you not bug, Duilin, because he need to talk to Lars//

[Zeros']

Kami-ryu was starting to grow impatient at this man. He was insulting his master, who has saved his life countless times.

"There is something called sterotyping. That is what you are doing. People believe all that originates out of evil must be evil. I swore my life towards my master till his or my death." Kami-ryu sighed and turned back to his master, who didn't look too mad.

"I would give my life for his. He has saved my life countless times. You want proof?" Kami-ryu held out his right arm, which was metallic. He also pushed his left leg forwards, which was also metallic. "There is your proof! The Ice Warriors are only a bunch of egotistical bastards who believe they can rule everything with power! Go back to your mountain guild and wither and die. The ways of the Ice Warriors are outdated." He spat in Frost's face.

Zeros' turned and placed a firm hand on Kami-ryu's shoulder. He calmed slightly, but was still slightly mad at them.

[Dude Man]

Frost, then glared, he wiped his face and then took out his pick axe.

"Bite, looks like we got a couple of people who want to bath in there own blood!"

Bite then looked at Kismet "Stay outta this!" He took out his Ice Thrower and fired a blast of ice crystals out of his weapon, at Zeros', it would cause some serious frost-bite if you got hit. Frost then swung his pick axe in a side ways motion, at Kami-Ryu.

[Zeros']

Zeros' blurred from sight, the only indication of him standing there was his after image. He already had his sword out, transformed, as 12 feet of steel was pointed directly at Bite's throat.

"Do you yeild?" He said with ice in his voice. Kami-ryu was already ready. He lashed out with his cape, transforming it into dozens of spikes, as they headed directly towards Frost's vital parts.

He materialized several kunai in his right hands and held them inbetween his right hand's fingers as he blocked the pick axe with his arm, causing a slight dent.

[Dude Man]

Frost spots all the spikes and then croches down and turns away extremly quickly they stick into his back but mostly consumed by his armor. He then spins around wile swing his pick axe at Kami-Ryu's legs.

Bite eye's are wide open, he's in total shock, he's never seen anything like this before.

"Yes, I yeild, I yeild!" Bite cries, he then makes a high pitched wistling sound...

[Zeros']

Zeros' pulled his sword from Bite's throat and sheaths it. Kami-ryu meanwhile pivots on his foot as he deflects the blow with his metal leg. He saw he didn't have time for fooling around. He nodded to Zeros', who disappeared. Zeros' quickly came back and stepped on the pick axe near the handle. Zeros' made a gun with his thumb and index finger and gathers his ki, forming a small ball in front of him.

"I don't like needless killing. Do you yield?" He said. He folded his wing back down, which revealed Kami-ryu gone. Kami materializes behind Frost and points a kunai at the backl of his neck.

[Cesque]

"Stay outta this?!" - Kismet said with a nervous tone. - "Outta this?! I HATE stereotypes!"

He put his arms each in direction of one of ice warriors while others care more about engaging them in closer battle, and two streams of flames headed toward Frost and Bite (one stream at one ice warrior).

He did not really care much about incinerating the tavern...

---

Cheetah threw a look at the small battle taking place with ice warriors, then turned toward barman, ordered a beer, drank it, and returning to his senses, realised he had no money.

"Well, yeah..." - he said. - "I'll pay the debt one day."

The situation in tavern wasn't looking good. Cheetah never liked crowds too much - whenever too many people gathered at one place, usually argues and battles happened.

[Haraldur]

Ellenna quietly slipped out of the tavern, and waited for Kahn.

_________________________________________________________

"Why am I here? Oh, so many reasons. One of them is the chance for revenge against the Dark Empire. Another is a general bitterness agaist the human race, such as it is. Those weapons are also of great interest to me. I see you have one. You are going to destroy it? I hope you destroy them all. Yours best not to reason why. That is why you are here, is it not?"

He then heard the words of the two Ice Warriors, and saw the resulting violence. Then he threw two fireballs at them saying, "You best be careful about who listens in on your conversations. I am not well pleased."

[Dude Man]

"I yeild!" Frost cried, and then the fire blast hit him "AHH! Not again! Owch! Geez!"
Frost had some serious burns that needed aiding

Bite, just kept makeing high pitched wistling, over and over. He luckly still had his gun out and he shot the fire blast and the flame melted it instead of hitting him, he then droped his gun.

(Kami-Ryu, dosen't really seem like a level 1)

[Dippy]

<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>"GUNGUN NO LIKE!! MAKE GO AWAY!! :angry: "</span>
Gungun says as he runs thrugh the street armed with a shotgun cannon arm and a large ice hammer.
First he runs over to Kami-Ryu and rips him off of Bite and fires his shotgun cannon at Zeros'  Surprised

(first boss of chapter 4)

[Xorlak]

Lars looked over his shoulder, noting the entrance of Zeros' and Haraldur into the tavern behind him.  A grin appeared on his face, hidden under his hood.

"They're here... quickly, we mustn?t let them see us..."

He grabbed Duilin by the arm, moving him into the shadows of a nearby building as sounds of a fight began to emanate from the tavern.  He spoke softly:

"I am but a simple prophet... I have studied them from afar... yes... and I have looked into their souls...  The winged one.  He claims to fight for justice, but his true desire is power...  He is centuries old, a half-demon.  He has all the time in the world, and he is waiting for the right moment...  He will stop at nothing to obtain the weapons...  He very well may be the strongest fighter in the world...

"The other one, the prince of Víkingagarđ...  He is truly mad...  He has spent the past month destroying an innocent country by himself...  He has acquired some new sort of power, I am not sure what or how...  He seems angry and confused.  He is more dangerous.  At least the other has focus.  This one could go ballistic at any moment...

"I am looking for some men to help me stop them... before it is too late.  Let us pray they do not decide to join forces at this moment...  Before you answer, I beg you not to be fooled by their guise...  What say you?"

[Haraldur]

Ellenna saw two men moving quickly and heard mentions of two strange people, and of violence.

"What is going on?"

________________________________________________________

Haraldur caused the massive shotgun pellets from Gungun's shotgun cannon going towards Zeros' to reverse direction and to glow with red flame, so that firey balls of metal went hugely fast towards the sasquatch.

At the same time, his aura starts to glow a tint of red, rasing the temperature of the room to close to 40 degress Celsius. And then flame went outwards in all directions from him, with the sasquatch and the two ice warriors in the full force of the blast, which went outwards just 3 metres: it was being kept in check, and most of it only went towards the troublesome three.

Haraldur screamed in anger: "Why must I be interrupted?!"

[Zeros']

(Like I said before, he is a ninja which lets him melt into the shadows, but it takes time. That's why Zeros' wing was in the way. Kami-ryu may have alot of special abilites, but he is also physically very weak.)

Kami-ryu redirects his body so he pivots and lands on his feet. He looks over towards Haraldur and then his master. He bows to them and leaves to find Duilin.

Zeros' sighs. He quickly pivots on his foot, turning towards the monster and fires of the ki, in a shallow, concentrated beam.  He unsheaths his swords and splits it into the two 7 feet long, 1 foot thick swords.

He charges the aura with both light and dark auras, using the powers of love for all and the hate he has for his enemies.

"Hey Haraldur. You might want to get away after this." Zeros' has a grin on his face. He first thrusts the swords outwards, holding them at a ready position. He spins them around backwards and then slashes forwards with both in a upwards arc. Both of the slashes of dark and light energy head straight towards the monster.

----

Kami-ryu, meanwhile, looks throughout the crowd for the people that escaped.

He hears the prophet talking about his master and the prince. He slips near where he saw them and quitely listens, hiding in the shadows near them.
