(See.  Fun, huh?  Heh...)

The violet-eyed monstrosity stopped just after clearing the doorway.  It lifted its nose to the sky, smelling the blood of the trio just behind it.  It would be only seconds before it turned and realized they were there.

Back against the wall, Ven lifted his blade silently.  If he charged, he could stab the thing in it's exposed stomach, but would his blade be enough to pierce its scales?  He turned to his right.  The opening was so close... maybe if only they could tiptoe to the other side of the wall...

Zion and Xenai remained frozen, trying to figure out the best possible course of action.

--- --- --

Tsu and Aura charged at each other, swords clashing. They backed off and charged again, slashing furiously at each other, their swords connecting each time. Tsu rolled back, away from Aura. She retaliated by jumping up and coming down toward Tsu with her sword pointed down. Tsu rolled to the side, and onto his feet, swinging Kuon Yaiba into the back of her head with all of his might. She staggered forward, turning around to face him again. Tsu's eyes were narrowed, and appeared to be filled with darkness.

//Whoa, I barely misssed anything. Thanks guys, your the best ^_^ lol! \\

Rink sighed as he herd Zeros' reply. "Yeah..." He said to himself. "I miss him." He then walked over to a small vally were Duilin and Valos were training. He watched. "I don't trust Valos. This alliance might have even been a bad idea."

Duilin, swung his mace at Valos. The dark mage blocked it with his giant black metal sword. Valos, pushed his foot towards Duilin's chest. Duilin quickly grabed his oppent's foot with his free hand, twisting it, and fliping Valos to the ground.

Valos, begins to get up. "Good, very good."

Duilin helps him up. (Let's say they have been training for awile.). "Well then. I think that might be enough training."

"Really? Perhaps, we should test our strength of magic?" Valos asks

"Fine." Duilin nodds.

The two take a few steps back. They look at each other. Duilin blasts a lightning bolt, as Valos casts a shade, they both are knocked back a few feet, yet they were able to keep there balance. Duilin tosses a fireball at Valos, yet he casts a haste spell on himself and dodges the attack, then blasts a dark lightning bolt at Duilin, knocking him to the ground.

"Hah!" Valos laughs "Your magic is weak compared to mine. Yet you should try and use your demonic powers."

"Yes, but let's not waste our energy." Duilin says.

"I have elixers, we will be fine." Valos replies.

Duilin noddes, and then swoops up to his feet, with the aid of his wings. Valos, then poses a fighting stance, as Duilin charges yellow/orange energy around his hands and wrists. He then crafts it into an orb, and then tosses it at great speed. The orb smashes at Valos knocking him to the ground. "YAAHA!" Duilin yells in pride.

Valos grins and he covers. "Very good. Now-"

"Enough!" Rink said with a serious face. He glided down, closer to the two, and then went to a more normal exprestion. "Uh heh, what I mean is we are going to have to get going soon, ya know?"

"Yes and they have agreed to help." Marshal added, as he appeared in the scean. "I see the Blue Minotaur warriors, they have agreed to help."

"How many?" Valos asked

"Around thirty." Marshal replied "Might not seem like alot, but the warriors are very strong. I am but a scout."

"Very well." Valos said "You should group up with Draven and his forces. We will meet you at Vikingagarð."

Marshal nodded. Duilin, Valos and Rink flue off to group with Zeros. Marshal, then watched them fly off for a little wile. And then turned and saw the group of Blue Minotaur Mages, land down. All were wearing the simular clothing of Marshal's yet, they had stronger armor, with saphires in them for decoration. All but, one was rideing a wyvern, one was rideing a small blue dragon. The one rideing it had no head gear, a short beard, and a shineing blue/silver cape.

"General Roland." Marshal bowed to the caped dragon rider.

"Yes, young one, at ease." The dragon rider replied. Roland then rubbed his chin. "So, take us to the leader of the Empire."

"Um, yes." Marshal said "Follow."

Roland signaled the soilders to stay here. He then followed Marshal into the castle. Marshal and Roland came to the large barraks, were Draven was. He then spoke to the guard. "Tell Draven, that Marshal is here, with the General of the Blue Minotaur's army."

Draven stood at the edge of the pier, his hands behind his back hidden beneath his cape.  Directly behind him were large barracks from which a never ending stream of dark warriors marched.  Two ships were armed and ready, filled with soldiers and leaving the docks.  Two more were in the process of loading soldiers.

"My lord.  The general of the Blue Minotaur has arrived."

"Send him in."

Draven turned as the general riding the small dragon and Marshal approached.

"Welcome.  Your aid is most appreciated.  Those that provide us aid are entitled to a reward.  It is our way..."

He folded his arms and looked to his left.  Behind a line of his own soldiers, he could see the Blue Minotaur group waiting, only thirty or so strong...  He extended his arm in the direction of the ship on his left.

"I'm sure you have been notified why you are here.  Your soldiers may board this ship, that is, unless you have any questions, General..."

He paused so that the general may say his name.

----

Ven took a slow careful step towards the opening... towards safety...

*Snap!*

Of all places for a twig to be...

The violet-eyed beast spun around, its tail marring the other side of the wall.  Its eyes burned with rage, its multi-fanged mouth gaped open, oozing a dark shadowy aura.

"Great."

The dragon proceeded to spew a black flame at the trio.

"Hya!"

Ven quickly thrust his blade at the impeding dark flame.  A flash of silver light emanated from the sword and a white beam met the shadow energy half way, but this was not strong enough, as the black fire began to push the beam back and back into Ven...

"Who puts a f*cking twig in a mysterious looking portal!?" Xenai was the first to emerge, running next to Ven and pointing his hands up at the flame. He shot out a beam of enregy, to combine with Ven's.

"What luck." Zion was next. He ran to the other side, pointed his hands up, and gave some of his power.

--- --- --

Bokura wa ima demo sakenderu...

The two fighters charged at each other, swords clashing seemingly endlessly. The two soon found themselves in a struggle, pushing against each other with their swords.

"Why can't you just take me?! Don't you see how much I care?!" Tears flowed from Tsu's darkness corrupted eyes, rage evident on his expression.

"Why can't you just leave me alone?! Don't you see I don't want you?!" Aura wasn't crying, but the rage was there.

Zeros' swooped down low and flapped his wings, causing a wave of water to burst out in front of him. The water continued the wave before it stopped and Zeros' stood their with his arms crossed and his eyes seemingly focused on a spot in the air, but their was nothing there...

Draven, it seems that Haraldur has hidden his country within a rift. It seems that distortion I felt earlier was Haraldur using his magics to minipulate the air around the country of Vikingagarð. Anyone coming close enough to the area will be immedaitely destroyed. Keep your ships a moderate amount of distance between them and the distortion.

The only reason I am not affected is because I am also minipulating the air around myself, causing the two energies to clash. Indeed, it seemed that something was happening. Small tendrils of dark energy were randomly appearing and disappearing around Zeros' body. He sent this information to Draven and also to Rink.

"Greetings Draven." The General replied "I am General Roland. I run the army for the Blue Minotaur. I do have a few questions however..."

Roland turned his head and looked down at Marshal and then back at Draven. "This, Haraldur, The historians of our clan have studied this Haraldur, we do not know alot him, but we do know he nearly destroied the world five years ago. We want to get more information on this story? Marshal, said you had something to do with what happened."

-----

Rink resived Zeros' message, and replied 'Yeah, that seems like something he would do. With no dought he was sertainly expecting an attack.'

"When we get there..." Rink said to Valos and Duilin "Don't get to close. He's set traps..."

"That dosen't surprize me." Duilin replied.

The three spotted Zeros' a few yards away.

"Ahoy-hoy!" Valos laughed, as he waved his hand signaling Zeros'

Tesla and Haraldur were staring into a pool of water, showing an image of Zero's arriving at the rift.

"You were right, Lord Haraldur, we are going to be attacked."

"Indeed. Can we attack through this thing?"

"Yes. Anywhere on the battlefield, and this will not be visible. It will attack from its viewing point. If it then moves, it can attack from somewhere else."

"It is very fortunate for me that they found you."

"Thankyou."

Draven folded his arms in response to the general, now looking out towards the sea.

"Roland, yes...  This... 'Haraldur' as some call him, is an interesting fellow.  Five years ago he was set on destroying the planet in the name of 'revenge'.  I'm not sure why.  Bad childhood or something...  Now he wants to build a nation.  Heh, yeah right."

He looked over he shoulder.

"He has a perplexing personality.  Of course, he is made up of several people, some insane, some just jerks, at least one demonic entity, and several metallic weapons... don't ask..."

Draven returned his gaze to the sea.

"Ask my officers if you wish to be informed of his strengths, weaknesses, typical battle tactics, etc."  (The same info Draven gave in his speech earlier.)

The last of the soldiers boarded the sea bound ships.  The full airships high above docked at the towers started their magical engines.  It was time...

Draven closed his eyes and responded to the long distance telepathy:

"As I suspected.  Find a hole, every defense has a weakness..."

----

"HYAAHH!!"

Ven held his ground with the help of Zion and Xenai.  The black blast of fire slowly receded under the intensity of the triple attack.

Finally the dragon was completely overcome.  It's body began to burn in multicolored flame.  The merged beams entered the beast's mouth and a huge explosion ensued, followed by a swift change in force in the opposite direction.  In the dragon's place a sort of black hole was forming-- another portal...

"Whoa!"

Ven slipped and fell, his armor clanging on the floor.  He then began to slide along the ground toward the portal until finally flying up into the air into it...

"Oh, for fuuuuuuu!" Xenai is swept into the portal, Zion immediately after.

--- --- ---

They broke the struggle off, backing away from each other. Aura turned and started to walk off. Tsu simply stood there, doing nothing.

Without turning around, Zeros' raised his palm behind him, signalling for them to stop.

"Stay there. This rift is very strong," he commanded. He recieved Draven's message and nodded inside his head. Yes.. every defense had a weakness..

Zeros' slowly flew closer towards a certain area and started to examine around the area. He moved slowly and paused many times in his movements. At those times, his aura extended slowly for a few moments before coming back towards his body.

Draven began to float, shooting straight up into the air.  He landed on the deck of one of the two passing airships.

"Are all preparations complete?"

"Yes, my lord."

"Then let us go."

The entourage of more than 10,000 began to slowly move towards the general area of their destination.  The four battleships spread out across the sea in formation and the two airships above...

----

The trio materialized some ten feet in the air. Ven promptly fell, his armor clanging on another stone floor.

"Ohh..."

He sat up, feeling many eyes staring at him...

They had appeared in the middle of some sort of town...  but this was not a typical village...  The spot where he had landed was very crowed, and every single person had stopped what they were doing and flashed the intruders cold hard stares-- there were hundreds of them, mostly men.  Those with shorter sleeves or no shirts displayed a distinct tattoo on their arm.  The same symbol as on the red flags flying around the settlement.

Furthermore, the sky was eerie.  It was constantly moving, as if the town were in the middle of some sort of dimensional distortion...

"Uh... hello..."

(Yes, they're supposed to be in Haraldur's town!)

----

"You idiot!  What happened?"

*SMACK*

"Hsssss!!  They weren't ssupposed to defeat the dragon like that!  They were ssupposed to flee and find the mysstic jewel at the end of the labyrinth to place in the head of the giant sstatue that would transsport them here sso we could--"

"Just tell me where they are!!"

"Well, it was a random disstortion.  They blew a hole in the very fabric of the dimenssion... sso they probably would end up where the planet's space is most distorted..."

"Wouldn't that be where they entered?"

"I would think sso, but..."

A man was usherred into the front of the crowd, and smiled at the three men.

"Good morning. You are most welcome to stay for the moment, but to be honest you can do little else, since we are supposed to be cut off from the rest of the universe at the moment, the obvious exceptions being yourselves. There are, however, two questions I would like to ask you before I arrange for you to have accomodation, for we know not how long we will have to be cut off, for it is not known how long it will take for danger to pass, so you would understand if we were a little surprised by your entrance. First, it would be appreciated if you gave us your names, to go in our records, and as courtesy, and secondly, we would really like to know whether the portal you came here by was permanent or temporary. I hope you understand why we ask this."

On the other side of the square, there were several ethereal chess boards and chess pieces, and just then the games were restarting. Here it was obviously a spectator sport, with much cheering as people gathered around. There were no timers, but the contestants were wearing earmuffs, so that they could not receiv help from the crowd. Whites castled.

On this side of the square were several anvils manned by blacksmiths, forging swords in case their leader and his companion were killed. Each blacksmith had several anvils, and seemed to be controlling hammers which floated around by themselves, giving the equivalent of mass production. Every few minutes a blacksmith would leave the heat of the forge to cool down by watching the chess match, while someone else left the match and replaced him.

"Ow, my head..." Zion sat up after the unpleasant fall to find those cold, hard eyes.

"Where are we?"

Zion looked up at the man. "Uh... Zion Ultima."

"Xenai Omega... We got here through some weird portal... We heard somethin' big walkin' around, so we hid behind a wall. It came out and it was some huge black dragon. So he" Motioned toward Ven. "stepped out cautiously, and lo and behold, a friggin twig was there. So the dragon noticed, and we all three shot energy beams at it to counter the flame it was shooting at us. The combined beams pushed back the flame and entered its mouth and it died, making a black hole that sucked us up. And now here we are."

o_o; Zion just looked at Xenai.

"How are we going to get threw?" Rink asked, the two.

"Hmmm..." Valos slowly headed foward, he fowarded his hand were the water would spring up. As the water blasted up, he casted an ice spell freezeing the water, then with his other hand he swung a firey punch at the ice, smashing a far sized hole into the water, and flue threw the hole. The water rised up again and smashed the ice, just after Valos got threw.

"Okay, what about us?" Duilin asked.

"Firepunch the ice as soon as I cast it." Valos said. Valos icepunched foward as the water blasted up, freezeing the water. Duilin quickly firepunched a hole into the ice and then grabed Rink and flue threw. They then stood behind Zeros'.

---------

"Interesting." Roland said. He then signaled for his warriors to fly with the ships. "Let us go Marshal." He said to him as he saddled back onto his dragon, and flied with the army.

"Yes, sir." Marshal replied. The wyvern he summond earlier was the the knights, so he hopped back onto it. "Ya!" The wyvern then flapped it's wings and then flue off with the army.
