Dark Age Legends

[Zeros']

//The phasing im doing ISNT teleporting, its basically VERY fast speed...and I thought the town was like a couple hundred yards away, not a couple miles, sheeze...most of the time I read this IM tired becuase I can usually only post at night now, but my Mom and dad are gone today, so I  can only be on for a couple minutes then get off.\\

"Whatever...you don't care, but I DO!" he yelled back at Scorch. He walked over towards where Duilin was. He picked the sword up with his left hand. "I have no idea what this does either, but it has to be important." He stuffed the sword behind his cloak and extended his wings.

He looked back towards Duilin. "If that man comes here, tell him I have the sword." He then looked to Scorch. "Its because there children..why wouldn't they cry? When you come up with an anwser I'd like to know."

He flew up in the air and started gliding off towards where Nex said to meet him.

[Dude Man]

(Twas a moutain, I'll describe the setting, oh and I'd would aperiate it if nobody would interifere with this this scean, I'd just like it to be Nex and Zeros')

The top of the moutain was so high that the clouds covered it, makeing foggy all around, you could here wind blowing threw caverns, and hawks screaching. On top of on peek on the moutain stood Nex with crying Qunei under one arm and the other arm empty and prepared to be given something.

"Give me the sword...." Is all that Nex said

[Cesque]

Zeros, whatever the distance is... you can't abandon fighting, make all the way to caves, read a note and stop lightning bolt I fired before you done with first thing among these

Another thing, if you begin talk, please wait for peoples' response, all right? You took the sword from Duilin without asking what he has to say/do about this, you threw some words at Scorch before he could answer... and flew away.

Scorch looked at departing Nex, amazed people act faster nowadays than he does under influence of haste spell.

"To hell with your child!" - he cried after him and begin to analyze the sky, looking for Cheetah and his news about Iduran.

-----

Suddenly, a wyvern landed behind Scorch, turning to human form Cheetah. He noticed Duilin and Seth around.

"Not good, not good. Draven is coming."

[Xorlak]

(I'll have some minor rule adjustments up after this post.)

(Actually Zeros' taking the sword is fine since Duilin dropped it.)

----

Draven peered through the forest, seeing an opening ahead and several people standing around.  He came closer, sneaking behind a large tree at the edge of the clearing.  The forested ground he was on was a little higher than the clearing, so he had a good view of the people and what they were standing in front of-- the cave.  Several bodies of Dark Soldiers were strewn about.

Draven recognized most.  He squinted at the sight of Scorch, but smirked when he saw Duilin.  There was also the man who attacked him with claws earlier, the shape-shifting Gepardi, some woman he didn't recognize, and a small child...  The winged one who attacked him earlier was nowhere to be seen...

What are they doing?  Planning something?  Does Duilin still have the sword?  Draven wanted to eradicate them all... but it would be better to watch for a bit...

----

"Err... it's yellow..."

Climb down?!  Is there an invisible cliff after the invisible floor?!   Iduran squatted, petrified of the height, and began to tip-toe forward.  Amazingly, the very first step was a bit lower than the first, as he somehow expected.  He turned around, feeling downward with his left hand, hoping to find something to grab on to-- and somehow he did.  He continued this way for a good 10 minutes, slowly descending the invisible ledge until he touched the black sand of the beach.  Upon contact, he collapsed on the ground, sticking his sword into the sand.

"I'm getting too old for this..."


----

(Haraldur, you don't want to go here just yet... heh...)

The elder Haraldur saw the edge of the sea before him-- sharp black mountains jutted up out of the ocean.  Among the mist of the mountains, dark spiked towers jutted up at regular intervals along the coastline.  He had come to the edge of what was called the mainland of the Dark Empire, a sprawling continent 1,000 miles across through the middle.  This had once been the most beautiful land in the world.  But abuses of nature had turned the entirety of it into a desolate wasteland.  It was no matter-- this is how they like it...

As soon as the towers came into view, a flood of winged creatures poured from the towers.  Haraludur soon found some 50 black wyverns spread out in front of him.  But there was another...  A man in armor lead the way, flying through the air under his own power, completely covered by bleak gray and blood red plates.  Only a slit in his pointy helmet allowed him to see.  On his back was a sword-- the width of a normal broadsword, but its length was twice his size.

The warrior floated in front of the legion of winged creatures.

"WHOSO DARES TRESSPASS WITHIN THE REIGN OF THE DARK EMPIRE?"

[Haraldur]

Hmmm..., thought Haraldur, maybe this was a little premature...

"Thin air." said Haraldur.

Haraldur then disappeared from sight and flew upwards. Unsure whether he was being chased or not, he accelerated. Clouds flew past.

"Nearly there..." he gasped.

The sonic boom was deafening, but he still flew upward. In the thinning air far above, a hole appeared before him. He went through. All his belongings, and his big breakfast, fell down from the emptry sky.

He appeared in a black space, empty of everything but air, and food and water from his last visits. The hole would not open up for hours, he would just have to stay here and hope his namesake does not get hurt. Dammit! Why had he foolishly believed that the largest power in the world would keep its borders unguarded. He hopre he would not have to pay a high price.

//Haraldur the elder is now out of action for the rest of this chapter.//

"Really? You are still alive despite everything, I doubt you will be too old for anything for quite a while.

"I will take to our doctors, in case you have any serious injuries. Do you want a hand up?"

[Dude Man]

"Draven is comeing....No worry, because of me, if he comes and kills us all, then it would acompish nothing, but I say we destory him instead. He was the one who ordered the attack on my village, and ordered Darion to kill people, includeing my family, so I'd like to see him dead! Preferably by my doing!" Duilin swung out his claymore and his mace. He kinda stumbled abit because of the weight of them both in only one hand. "Dangit, how come I can't even hold two weapons at once and Zeros' or something can hold like, two giant busterbroadsword is one hand and a cannon in the other....wait I don't think he can...but you know what I mean!"

He holsters his mace, and now just has the claymore. "I'll be ready when he comes...."

How come NOW I'm starting to regreat giveing Zeros' the sword

"Seth, do you accualy just want to run for it and try my plan or just kill Draven and get this overwith?"

[Cesque]

Scorch folded his arms and began to look for any smallest movements from the forest... A sight was a beautiful thing to have.

"The lack of blade has it's good sides, you see. If you'll die Duilin, which is somehow highly possible due to your lack of power and experience in combat, Draven still won't get the blade."

"It has it's bad sides, though - now blade belongs to that winged demon creature who cares about some two..." - Scorch throws a look at Nevina and Zev - "Two kids... And who knows that this irresponsible creature might do. And where Iduran is..."

[Dude Man]

"Hmmm.....a confusing thing to say there Scorch. But I understand the me dieing part, the battle against the Rommes we fought was my first battle...first with the Dark Empire anyway....Meh whatever!"
He then lowers his voice so only Seth can here "Seth I say we leave and look for Zeros' he should go back to the Romme Castle. What do you say? But we should get some Dark Empire armor first."

[Cyber Wolf]

"Whatever. I'd prefer to not die though, please." Said Seth, sticking his tongue out in a childish manner.

"Zeros' is up there fighting Nex, what makes you think he's gonna rush off to the Romme Castle? I say we attack Draven, If nothing else we have more numbers than him. Plus I got this sweet Falchon here and I'm much more of a threat now, meheee."

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Nevina stared at everyone and said, "Who are you people..? Why are you here?"

[Dude Man]

"Hmmm....I supose your right then. We will defeat Draven first or something...just....I need to think of a plan to get the sword and defeat the enemy....."Duilin then turn his head over to Nevina, and starts talking before she sees her. "Who are YOU?Why are you he-...." He then stops as he spot Nevina....."Uh......well hello there, i'm Duilin, how may I help you?" :rolleyes:

[Cyber Wolf]

"Oh I don't think I want YOUR help, sir." Nevina said, giving Duilin a perverted look.

"I'm Nevina Seev, last of the Jin Knights. I'm here investigating the evil force I sense and to discover why my Island is in such bad shape.. and because I kind of got ran out of my Palace by some evil apparitions.." Nevina explained.

"So, returning to my initial question, who are YOU guys, and what are YOU doing here?"

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Seth simply said, "Alright." and pulled out his Falchon, wielding it with his right hand, and put a steel claw onto his left hand. Seth then got into a battle stance, pointing his Falchon out towards the mouth of the cavern and his shoulder went up and down on his left arm; the one holding the steel claws.

[Dude Man]

"Oh I'm Duilin....This is Seth, this elf like man, and the wizard dude, Scorch, and that other guy is Cheetah, he's gepardi, a shapeshifting person. Wellcome, and is that kid you have there Zeros'?" Duilin says. He then looks at Seth "What ARE you doing?"

[Zeros']

He arrived at the mountain, he saw Nex holding Qeni under his arm and his other arm out-streached, waiting for something. He glided down slowly and stop infront of Nex, hovering a foot or two above the top of the mountain.

"So...its you," he pulled the sword out, "You want this? Give me back Qeni first, then I'll give you this. I don't trust Dark Empire soldiers, let alone generals." he put the sword behind his back and stabbed it through his chest, absorbing it into his body (basically, when he stabbed it into his body, he was able to absorb it and now its sitting next to his spine, behind his cloak). He conjured an exact copy of the sword with his demonic powers.

"Im waiting..." he pulled the sword back from his cloak. "The swords here. Put Qeni on the ground and when she walks over to me, you can have it."

He thought to himself, "Don't worry Qeni, hopefully I can protect you this time." his thought wandered off.
----

Zev held Nevina's leg from behind, scared of the other people, especially Scorch.

He just barely peeped out from behind her to look at the four.

[Dude Man]

Nex tilted his head abit, and then thought for a moment. Nex then smiled *even though you can't even se his dang face* and then said

"You know, I don't recall that being part of the deal. I remember saying, If you ever wanted to see you kid again then met me here to give me the sword. I see how you got the idea, but you see my young friend, that dosen't mean I'm going to give you the baby...no it dosen't.....but since I'm in a good mood, I think I'll give you the child, JUST, TO, BE, NICE!" Nex then had the the baby in both hands and then slowly started to give it to Zeros' but then "Ooops!" He threw the child, down and she started to fall down to the ground, Zeros' better hurry up and catch her! "Wahahahahahahahaha! Go get her...hero!" He then jumped up and started flapping his wings hovering in the air...

[Zeros']

"(Editor: Censored)er" he muttered under his breath.

He did a 180 and was now facing the ground, he flapped his wings as fast as he could and chased after the falling Qeni. He reached out his hand and Qeni reached out her's.

"Almost there..." he grabbed her hand and slowly turned upright, making him face upwards, looking towards Nex. He held Qeni with both hands.

He slowly glided back upwards, towards where Nex was hovering.

"So thats how you want it." he slowly accended. "You want to kill the Seraph's daughter?

He reached the height of Nex. He glared at him. He unsheathed his sword in his right hand, and held Qeni in his left. He looked around, he saw a mountain peek and slowly descended towards it.

He gently put Qeni down on the peek. "Don't worry." He hugged her. "I won't let you die." He cast a barrier around her, which would prevent her from falling if the mountain was destroyed, and also if any attacks went towards her.

He accended fast. He phased out, then reappared infront of Nex.

He spun his sword around and his phoenix aura's strengh increased.

"Now where were we?" He charged at Nex, sword forwards, and his left hand behind his back, reaching for something. He pulled out the fake sword and set it aflame, making it ashes.

"Now the swords gone. What say you know Nex!" he continued his charge.

Zev tugged on Nevina's shirt. He had a worried expersion on his face. "Who are they...?"
