Dark Age Legends

[Haraldur]

//Barrier at 7 hp.//

"Simple? I doubt you are simple...

"The Dark Empire would use me to further their own power, to leach off me. It took me a while to realise this, but as Ragnar I realised the truth first: they were part of me and would be used to leach from my power, my self, my consciousness. So I rebelled."

Haraldur caused the barrier to explode, releasing the energy of 7 fireballs on Armic and Lars. He then caused a poisoned knfe to appear in his hand, which he threw at Lars.

[Trent]

Zion came apart from the Eternity Weapon, which got sucked into the gem on the sword. Xenai floated out of the water with a similar gem on his sword in the same place, except his was red. "I think we're good to go."

"I agree."

Tsu nodded his head slowly, though he was of little use.

[Zeros']

Zeros' looked up at the three warriors and sighed.

"Come on then. We have to stop Lars and his party." Without waiting for a reply, Zeros' folded his wings outwards and brust forwards towards the position Lars was in, breaking the sound barrier.

[Dude Man]

"I guess, we have no choice, let's go Kami-Ryu!" He picks up Ryu and flys off to the location of the ship.

Frost and Bite will wake up in a few posts.

[CyberWolf]

Armic was consentrating souly on the preperation of his attack, and his head was throbbing in pain. One of the energy balls hit him square in the chest, knocking him down, but his consentration was so great, his spell did not fizzle.

He lept up, his spell finally complete. His arm had become black steel, just as his sword, and it resonated dark energies. He charged at Haraldur, then as he thought Harauldur was about to counter or Parry, he teleported behind him, and swung at the "God's" side.

//Level 2 + Spell Preperation of 2 posts = 4 VS. Player Level of Target: 3//

Nevina followed Duilin and Ryu.

[Xorlak]

Lars threw both arms in front of his face, forming a quick barrier.  Three of the fireballs slamed into it, destroying the barrier and sending Lars flying backwards several feet, though he quickly regained his balance.

"Hmm, fair enough.  I suppose I would do the same in your position..."

Lars moved his head to the left, the knife whizzing past his cheek, barely missing it.  At this point he noticed Armic was ready to attack.

"One final question..."

He extended both arms to his sides.   His palms erupted in flame as he gathered the energy for the spell, though his tone of voice did not change as spoke casually.

"This plan of yours... the one you mentioned that goes into effect once you've destroyed the weapons... It wouldn't happen to involve ridding the earth of that vile winged one now would it?  You know if you try anything drastic, he's going to get right in your way...  And knowing you're style, that's exactly what's going to happen.  If so, I can see a mutually beneficial alliance between our causes..."

[Trent]

Zion grabbed Tsu's arm and took off after Zeros', putting all his energy into matching his speed. Xenai was right next to him, doing the same.

"Oh, by the way," said Zion, as he came up on Zeros', "who's Lars?" Neither 3 of them had met Lars yet.

[Haraldur]

Haraldur was hit by Armic's blow, but it was just a minor scratch, which healed before Armic's eyes.

Haraldur grabbed Armic's arm while the blade hit, and tries to throw Armic at Lars.

"I do not think that far ahead."

[Zeros']

"He's a guy I met awhile ago who thought I was a threat to the world if I regained all the weapons. 'S probably why we split them between Haraldur, Ryu, Duilin and I. So far we have 4 of the weapons: sword, staff, spear and mace." Zeros' said while heading towards the boat.

[Trent]

"So which ones 'r left?" asked Xenai.

Zion could see something up ahead...

(Not counting this one... Didn't do much anything 'cept talk.)

[Xorlak]

Lars immediately dispersed the energy he had gathered, and used his now free arms to "catch" the thrown Armic so neither of them would substain any damage.  He let go of his ally, assuming he would be able to fly under his own power.

"Hmm, unfortunate, yet somehow unsurprising..."

He moved his fists to his sides.  The faint crimson aura surounding him began to grow more intense.

"I had intended to keep this guise a bit longer.  But a small reordering of plans really won't make a difference..."

At that instant, a violent explosion of fire burst forth from the shrouded man.  The sky turned from grey to blood red...  The withered trees below burst into flame...  The man in the center of the fireball exumed an inhuman aura of power...  Lars's dark cloak began to burn off... morphing actually.  It took slowly the shape of black armor, lined with vermillion.  The cape was black, with a crimson dragon upon the back... The hood that masked his face was gone.  The man's face was young, handsome perhaps.  His long black hair was tied back neatly at the shoulder...

Wrapped in a flame of intensity never seen before, Draven folded his arms and smirked his usual smirk...

"... after all, traitors cannot go unpunished..."

[CyberWolf]

Armic was sustained by Lars and slowly hovered onto the ground.

He seemed to be having a conversation with himself, but no one could really make out the words.
Armic: "W... What just happened to Lars?"

Qor: He has finally shown his true form. I had seen this all along... but I thought it best not to let you know before it required knowledge.."

Qor: "Why, that is the lord of the Dark Empire, Draven, my child. I have watched him from his birth. He is no ordinary man, my Qorling. If you do not bring upon Armeddeggon, this man certainly will..."

[Zeros']

Zeros' twitched slightly and sped up even more, breaking the sound barrier and proceeding top Mach 3.

He watched as the sky changed colors and the trees wither and burst into flame. His face scrunched up into a grimce and he involuntarily clenched his fists. Heading at such high speeds he soon came upon the scene of Draven, Haraldur and Armic.

He stopped near them and stood there, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Hello...Draven. Long time no see." Zeros' spat.

[Trent]

Zion and Xenai stopped near Zeros'. Zion let go of Tsu, who fell for a few seconds, then suspended himself. "Draven," said Zion. "Long time no see."

Xenai snickered. "THIS is the dude I was about to work for? Psh!"

[Haraldur]

"Ah, Draven, how nice to see you again... May I please thank you for failing to aquire the sword. Incompetance does, indeed, have its own virtues. Even spectacular incompetance, in your own case. Especially now."

A blue orb appeared in each of Haraldur's hands, and they grew. He then threw them bth at Draven, them exploding into small shards of ice once within the aura of flame.
