Chapter 2 Unexpected
After a few days of planning, the elves sent their dragon rider towards Aibiki Bara for the perfect plan to destroy the demon king. The elf rider is named Siegfried, and his dragon, a light lavender female, is Valkerie Sphye(1). Siegfried knows exactly what to do to bring down the demon king, and he's going to do it slowly and painfully.
Atemu woke up with a weird feeling in his gut. He doesn't understand why, but he feels like he should be careful, Seto noticed this of course and tried to calm the other down. That resulted with Atemu getting even more freaked out, leaving Seto with no choice but to place guards all over the palace, and a few spies to have a look around.
Even still Atemu couldn't calm down, he wouldn't eat breakfast even if his magician, Mahaado, tries to get his king to eat. Whatever is happening, Atemu is getting even more nervous by the minute. Having enough of this, the demon king got up and left to his bedroom, finding Hikaru and put it in a pond in the royal gardens.
Hastily, in the ancient language, Atemu asked why he's feeling so nervous.
"Show me why I'm feeling so nervous, show me please." And then the blue stone glowed, a figure was beginning to show on the pond's surface. The figure was tall, easily known as an elf, with pink hair riding on a lavender female dragon heading towards Aibiki Bara. The scene changed into one where it shows the same rider, but has taken control of the demon army, including the general, Seto.
Atemu stare in shock, his crimson eyes widened in fear as he saw himself fighing his own lover, protecting the children, the old, and the sickly while the army is attacking the palace. The scene changed to where it showed the elf dragon rider killing Kohaku, and Kisara. And the last scene showed Seto striking Atemu's heart with Sohi, afterwards it showed the demon rider killing Seto.
Atemu screamed, splashing the water with his hand to make it stop. Immediately servants came to their king's side, trying to calm him down as one went to the council for the news that Atemu explained to the servants. The council, which is a total of six, left the throne room and to their king who is shivering in fear as his eyes showed no emotion as to what he saw.
The members of the council are, Seto, Isis, Karim, Shada, Mahaado, and Malik. Yes, Malik joined the demons and turned demon himself, and he is now a member of Atemu's council. Following Mahaado is his apprentic, Mana, fear in her azure eyes as she looked at her friend Atemu.
"Atemu, is it true?" Shada asked.
"Hikaru is a jewel that shows everything, it doesn't lie." Atemu hissed.
"Now that we know what the elves are doing, what are we going to do?" Isis wondered.
"I say we attack and destroy them once and for all!" Malik growled.
"But the vision the Hikaru stone showed is that the elf dragon rider is able to put a controling spell on us. We can't risk having us attack our king." Mahaado pointed out.
"We may have to abandon Aibiki Bara if we don't come up with something soon." Atemu hissed, not liking the way this is going.
"Then where do you propose we go?" Karim asked.
"I don't know, which is closer, Rohan or Gondor?" Atemu growled.
"Rohan is closer." Mahaado answered.
"Then that would be too easy for the elf rider to find us." Atemu hissed as he began to pace around.
"Do you want us to evacuate the demons and set off to Gondor?" Seto asked.
"No, we'll confront the elf rider." Atemu said suddenly.
"You aren't serious aren't you?" the council members asked.
"I'll confront him away from Aibiki Bara, while you guys send a messenger to Gondor and Rohan, to gather the riders, and to meet me and the elf rider at the four boundaries of countries of men, elves, and demons." Atemu explained.
"Who should we choose to send?" Karim wondered.
"We must send someone who is fast and can get the job done quickly." Seto answered.
"I'm fast, and I can do the job quickly." Mahaado volunteered.
"And I shall ride for Gondor, leaving my second in command, Malik, take care of the army." Seto announced.
"Very well, all is settled. Now we must get ready, the elf rider is on his way." Atemu hissed, leaving the room to find his dragon partner, Seto doing the same while Mahaado makes ready to leave for Rohan.
For five minutes the three were getting ready, and now the three demons set off to their destination. Seto rode Kisara to the North, towards the realm of Gondor. Mahaado flies towards the East, where Rohan resides. And finally Atemu and his partner Kohaku, fly off to the west to confront the elf rider.
It didn't take long for Atemu to meet up with the elf rider. Even from far away the demon king could see the surprise on the other's face, smirking, Atemu leaned to his right, making Kohaku change course as they challenged the other pair to follow. Taking the bait, the elf rider followed the demon king. The lavender female dragon roared, challenging the smaller male to turn around and fight.
"Sorry miss, I don't want to hurt those pretty scales of yours." Kohaku teased, the female growled.
"You don't want me to bite that pretty handsome head off now don't you?" the female hissed.
"I'm sorry, but you can't do that." Kohaku growled, causing the female to let out an angry roar.
Atemu leaned forward, giving Kohaku the chance to speed up. Realizing that the smaller dragon is getting away, Seigfried leaned forward as well, Valkerie Sphye happily sped up to catch up with the smaller male. But when Valkerie Sphye got close to Kohaku's flank, the red dragon quickly turned at a different direction, the female following. Soon Seigfried felt dizzy, and suddenly realized why.
The demon leader is having his dragon go in circles, and Valkerie Sphye is following right behind him! Why would the demon king want to go in circles? Roars of disapproval were heard, the elf looked over his shoulder to see the dragon riders of Rohan, and Gondor, flying towards them.
Thinking that its for backup, Siegfried urged his dragon to leave. But as Valkerie Sphye turned, Kohaku slammed right into her! It was so sudden for Valkerie Sphye to turn that it was too late for Kohaku to change course, resulting the two dragons to fall as they growled and snarled at each other. Finally the two dragons came apart and landed safely on their feet, althought Kohaku landed lazily making the ground shake and the landing uncomfortable for Atemu.
"Kohaku, next time make the landing smoother." Atemu groaned as he got off.
Sorry, but at least you didn't get crashed into a bigger dragon. Kohaku said in the mind link.
'Sorry.' Atemu said. Kohaku felt a wave of guilt and sadness from the other.
Look Atemu I- Atemu put up his hand to his dragon, clearly not in the mood to listen. Kohaku looked at his partner for a moment, before he snorted and leaped into the sky, flying back towards Aibiki Bara.
Seto blinked at his king, Atemu wouldn't be the type to send off his dragon, but this is Kohaku, not Horachty. Maybe Atemu is still trying to adjust for loosing Horachty and then shortly after getting another dragon partner. Yugi, who watched all of this, only hoped that his brother would get over the last bit of pain in his heart to fully accept Kohaku.
"Now, since we're all here, we must discuss matters as to why the elves chose to fight against my brother because of his three gifts he recieved three years ago." Yugi announced.
"King of Gondor, I will only say is that he does not deserve to keep the gifts in his possession." Seigfried answered.
"Why?" Joey demanded.
"Because, King of Rohan(2), he could be keeping them for the lust for power..." Seigfried didn't finish.
"I have no lust for power at all. Why would the serpent gods give me the gifts in the first place?" Atemu snapped.
"Given? Stolen more likely." Seigfried corrected.
"They weren't stolen, how would I steal them when the serpent gods are one of the most powerful creatures on this earth." Atemu hissed.
"Then prove it." Seigfried snapped.
"We were witnessess during the time when he was given the three gifts." Yugi stepped in before Atemu could say anything.
"An' Atemu isn't de kind of person ter steal somethin'." Joey added.
"Yea, so its best not to accuse him for false facts." Tristand said.
"But then what about his relationship with his latest dragon? After all his first one died, leaving him with another dragon partner with a bad relationship." Seigfried said, Yugi and his friends cringed in fear from the look on Atemu's face.
"You dare to talk about my relationship with my best friends?" Atemu growled dangerously.
"Yes, I dare." Seigfried smirked.
Atemu's gaze turned to the lavender female dragon. Valkerie Sphye could feel the heated gaze upon her, but she doesn't flinch in case the demon tries to do something. Atemu walks up to the female dragon, inspecting her as he looked from head to tail. Looking closely at every detail, the demon king noticed many things that he's surprised that it hasn't been noticed by the rider, for any elf as a matter of fact.
"You know, I believe your dragon is going to die soon due to scale disease(3), bacteria within the wounds, and if you look closely, and judging by the smell, she's bleeding along the inside of her chest." Atemu said, earning a death glare from Seigfried.
"How could you know?" Seigfried asked.
"Just by inspecting your dragon, and since I have a strong sense of smell I can smell internal bleeding." Atemu pointed out.
"Okay, back on the subject." Yugi interrupted. "Now, Seigfried, do you think that there's enough proof for Atemu's gifts from the serpent gods?"
"Yes, I'm quite sure that it is enough proof." Seigfried answered, getting back on Valkerie Sphye.
The lavender dragon gave the demon king a look, a look of appreciation and wonder. All Atemu did in response was to smile slightly in wonder why the dragon would give him such a look. Then Valkerie Sphye took off with her rider, leaving Atemu give a sigh of relief.
"Thank you for helping me, Yugi, Joey." Atemu said, smiling at his friends.
"No prob man." Joey said, patting his friend on the shoulder.
"After all, what are friends for?" Yugi smiled, his older brother smiled back.
"By the way, what happened to Mahaado?" Atemu asked.
"He's helpin' de healers with spells dat dey don't know of." Joey answered.
"Oh, well tell him that when he's done then bring him over to Aibiki Bara. But if he's done in the middle of the night let him stay for the night. I don't want him to fall asleep during a council meeting tomorrow." Atemu said, Joey gave him a nod of understanding.
"Now we'd better get going." Atemu said, turning towards his dragon...or at least where his dragon should be.
"Seto, can I ride with you?" Atemu asked, embarrassed that his partner isn't here.
"Sure. Get on." Seto said, getting up on Kisara's back. When the tall demon was on, he offered his hand for to help Atemu up. Taking the other's hand in his, they pulled the king onto Kisara, sitting in front of Seto. Atemu blushed slightly when Seto wrapped one hand around the smaller's waist as Kisara took flight.
When they were far enough, Seto nipped at Atemu's neck, earning a moan of pleasure and pain.
"What was that for?" Atemu hissed..
"For being embarrassed of our relationship." Seto growled. Atemu blinked.
"You could tell?"
"Yea just because of your strong, bashful scent."
Atemu thought for a moment. Then he leaned forwards and kissed the other on the lips, hoping that the other would forgive him. Seto gradually kissed back, loving the taste of the other as they flew on towards Aibiki Bara.
