Disclaimer: Dragonlance isn't mine. It's Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's. I'm just using the characters.
Authors note: This is going to be the first in a series. At least what I'm hoping. I think Nuitari is next, or I might do Paladine next. Paladine or Fizban, or both (not at the same time, that would be confusing). Well R& R please.
Only Mortal
Chap. 1: Takhisis
He seems so weak but my son says he has enough power to challenge me, and win. He is most likely on Paladine's side, like the rest. Nuitari says he is stronger than Fistandantilus. Fistandantilus was a fool, a weak mortal who was destroyed by his own arrogance.
My minions will take care of her, the one he is using as a shield. She is quickly weakening.
He seems not to be afraid of me; unlike the kender he calls 'friend'.
Obviously he is stronger than my minions. The wouldn't be dead if he wasn't.
As I transform I fear a fleeting whisper. 'You will lose, my Queen.' it says. Ignoring this I unfurrow my great wings and leap into the air. Soaring high above the ground I see them in the distance. Two dots, as I knew there would be. The strange thing is one is very thin, looking as though they where starved or deathly sick. It was him, Raistlin. The other was too muscular to be a woman and seemed to be holding something. As I neared I can see it is actually a young man dressed in armor holding a woman with long black hair. The young man's eyes are shining with fear. Raistlin says something to him and the young man grabs the staff held towards him and runs towards the portal, still carrying the woman.
I land and Raistlin turns around. I can faintly see his skin and hair. His eyes stand out like becons, ridicule gleaming in them and behind that a glimpse of fear. Behind him the portal closes. I strike suddenly and grab him in one of my clawed hands and start to squeeze. He does not die. That means I will have to think up a more painful way to die. A gleaming light starts to surround him and he disappears.
I shriek, once again knowing the work of Paladine.
