I don't own White Knight Chronicles! ENJOY!
I was outside first. The rest caught up as the Pyredaemos got back up. "Ready to see why i said 'Let's' Leonard?" I ask the pactmaker. Leonard said "Alright but don't do anything stupid!" Heh i guess he's still jealous watching me dance with Cisna a while ago. I chuckled "I'm not planning to." I got ready memorize the words and started.
I cleared my thought and i chanted "O Dinavas, deliver of dark and dread, ruler of the ancient shadows, grant me your power." The Ark appeared in front of me as i took it and I finished "Verto!" The Ark opened as i pulled the blade out soon it disappeared, i was standing in the middle of the red circle. Red is not my favorite color but i'll get use to it. I floated as i raise my hand. I plunged my hands into my chest as i saw Dinavas' hands with it.
Dinavas' eyes glowed before i did it's pose. "What the!?" Leonard said shocked. Everyone should've seen the looks on their faces! Even Sarvain was shocked. "How the!? So i was right." Eldore said. "What do you mean?" Yulie ask. "The Black Knight. Otherwise known as Ebonwings in the Dogma Legends." Eldore said.
I feel great being in my knight form. It feels so light. So roomy, so... cold. But i'll get use to it. I looked at Leonard who i can see in a person size. I ask him in a hollow voice "What do you think?" Leonard ask "How did you get that?" I said "I'll explain later. Right now let's take out the Pyredaemos!" Leonard nodded as we got into stances against the Pyredaemos who roared.
I did a strong slash as Leonard did a thrust at the Pyredaemos' head. The Pyredaemos charged at Leonard but i tackled it and headbutted it's face. The Pyredaemos roared in pain as it slammed itself into me. I landed on the ground. I didn't feel any pain though this amount of armor. I got up and saw Leonard doing a Divine Slash. I decided to do a Clemency. I fly up without activating a shockwave and charged. I hit the Pyredaemos head-on and it's knocked Off-Balance.
Me, and Leonard kept thrusting the Pyredaemos as it raises in pain. The Pyredaemos got back up and i saw it's charging it's turret. What kind of Break Strike does Dinavas have? I realized that i don't know. But Leonard did one that weakened the Pyredaemos' legs. Making a mental note to tell Leonard how to do one later i thrust one of the Pyredaemos' legs as it's knocked Off-Balance again.
I did a shockwave which means fly up with the wings blowing back the opponents to damage the Pyredaemos. I landed and did a triple skewer at the Pyredaemos' head. The Pyredaemos got back up now weakened, and angered it roared as it glowed red. The Pyredaemos is enraged! Me, and Leonard looked at each other and nodded. He did i final Divine Slash and i did another Strong Slash. The Pyredaemos did one headbutt.
After the attacks, Me, Leonard, and the Pyredaemos just standed up. Then the Pyredaemos roared weakly before it fell down not moving. Me, and Leonard got down on one knee as we transformed back. I looked at the dead Pyredaemos and looked at Leonard's human form. I realized their is a puddle of water in front of me.
So i went to it and stared at what's staring at me back. Instead of me it was a teen with messed up hair, blood running down the corner of his mouth, busted up bronze armor, some patches of his skin showing from the armor, a cut bleeding on his shoulder, and a red nose. "It's over? But how did i... Where did i...?" I heard Leonard said in his normal voice.
We heard a scream before we looked back to find Cisna being taken by Belcitane, and Shapur. I made a promise to both Floraine, and Valtos. The anchor on the black monoship landed as the Magi duo climes on with Cisna. As Belcitane, and Shapur talked i climbed up the houses and jumped on one of the anchors spikes attracting their attention. "Bailey!" Cisna said as she struggled to get out of Belcitane's grip.
"Let her go!" I yelled. Belcitane said "You took Dragius' knight. And you will pay." "Why don't you just give up? We gave you a beating, you were weakened during your battle against Dinavas, and you used the last of your strength to transform." Shapur said with a smirk. I placed a hand on my chest and said "Because i made a promise to both King Valtos, and Queen Floraine. I promised i'll keep Cisna safe at all costs!"
Shapur chuckled and yelled "A PROMISE WORTH BREAKING!" He pulled his sword out and i wasn't able to stop the slash he made. After he slashed my chest i saw blood shot out from my chest and i fell with Cisna screaming in horror. Before i can hit the ground Cassie caught me and said "Hold on Bailey. We will get some help."
Eldore came and he casted a healing spell healing me but i am still weak. I got up and yelled at Shapur "THIS ISN'T OVER SHAPUR! I WILL GET CISNA BACK IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!" I saw Shapur only laughed. Weakened i fell down as Cyrus caught me at the last second. We all saw the black monoship fly out of there.
After a few minutes me and Cass got new clothes. I got a black shirt, blue pants, red sneakers, and black fingerless gloves. Cass got a purple shirt, yellow pants, black shoes, and a pink wristband on her right arm. I have bandages on my chest since that idiot Shapur done that attack. We were all at the throne room and saw Cyrus sobbing on Valtos' death.
"It cannot be! The king cannot be dead!" Cyrus sobbed. Wanting to make him feel better i slowly walked to him my feet were wobbly since i lost a lot of blood from what Shapur done. I kneel over him and said "Captain Cyrus I understand how you feel. It feels bad to lose someone like King Valtos. Along with Archduke Dalam. I know how bad it feels. But you and Sarvain are the only ones that can keep Balandor together."
Cyrus told me while still sobbing "Bailey. You don't know how much this feels. The king was like a father to me. He cared for me since i was a child. There is no Balandor without King Valtos." Me and Cyrus introduced ourselves a while ago. "I do know how this feels. I know because of me, and Cassie's dad." I said. Cyrus looked at me and ask "What?"
"My father. Scotty Jay Brassell. He didn't died. He just have a non-fatal, and uncureable disease called MS or Multiple Cirrhosis. It weakens his strength, and mess up his brain. Everyday i hope there is something i can do to cure it. Everyday i wish it never exist. But there was nothing i can do. I know how you feel. Having an uncurable disease is worst then death." I explained as i looked at the floor in sadness.
Cyrus stared at him surprised by what i told him. Everyone except Sarvain feel bad for me and Cass. Cass just stared at the floor after being reminded. I got up and told him "Also with Archduke Dalam dead Faria and Balandor will return to their war because Faria will hold Balandor responsible for his death. Our chance for peace died with him. So i suggest to Sarvain that you and him will prepare the kingdom for a alike invasion."
Cyrus looked at Valtos' coffin. Sarvain said "Sir Cyrus i agree with the boy." Cyrus didn't say anything. "Not only that. We have two things to take care of. Rescue Princess Cisna, and prevent the Magi from taking more of the Arks. There will be time to mourn about King Valtos later." I said. Everyone stared at me as Vet ask "You know who those guys are?"
"Yes Vet. There are a evil group who worshiped the ancients. They use ancient magic to summon beasts. Like the one me, and Leonard take down the Pyredaemos." I explained. Sarvain ask "My guess is that you know about the Dogma Wars?" "Yes Sarvain. Long ago 10,000 years ago a great war was fought with many powerful men. At that time two great empires were struggling to keep the world. Athwani the good empire, and Yshrenia the evil empire. Two great leaders were trying to defeat each other Queen Mureas of Athwani, and Emperor Madoras of Yshrenia. Angered by a lot of failures the Yshrenian Emperor Madoras created the five knights known as the Incorruptus or Sin Knights. They helped fight with Yshrenia they were close to succeeding until the White Knight Wizel joined the Athwani forces. The knights are also weapons of war." I explained.
Sarvain took this as cue "When the cataclysm happened 7 years ago ancient ruins we found and we found the knight. We recovered it and brought it to the treasure vault. The scholars spent years studying it. But they were unable to unlock it's secrets. What we learned was that only the people the knights deems worthy have the right to wield it's power and they are the pactmakers."
"That means you Leonard were one of the worthy. But there is something i don't get. The pact lasts till death yet i claimed the Black Knight's power without killing it's pactmaker. Why is that?" I ask. "Simple. If the pactmaker passed out or lost connection to their knights anyone can be the new pactmaker. And you Bailey made it possible." Sarvain explained.
"That explains a lot. I think i have a plan we will form a team to retrieve Cisna and the leaders will be Leonard, and Cassie." I said. Cass stared at me and said "What? You now planning not to be the leader?" I smiled at her and said "I believed i have enough being the leader. Besides your smarter then me." She rolled her eyes. "And hey if you haven't been there Dragius would've turned me into sliced bacon." I joked. She giggled and said "Yeah your right."
"Wait! Why would you suggest that?" Cyrus ask. "Just a darn minute! Why would you plan that?" Yulie ask. "Because the circumstances demand it. I know Sarvain would agree. Also the Magi are powerful be not as much as the knights. And without Dinavas they are weaker." I explained. "Are you saying this is going to be easy?" Cyrus angrily ask. "I'm not saying that Cyrus. They have beasts that would combat the knights. More importantly during my fight with Dragius, Belcitane, and Shapur I encountered their leader Grazel. He is powerful alright." I explained.
"And please explain if you promise the king and queen to protect the princess till death why not you'll do it yourself?" Yulie ask. I was about to reply until Leonard said "Yulie i can do it. Bailey may have won Cisna's heart but i will get her back." I blushed when he said i won Cisna's heart. I have a girlfriend before this stuff even happened. Her name is Bailey Allen. When we are married i will rename myself.
Sarvain raise an eyebrow "Huh? Did Cisna have a boyfriend now?" I yelled at Leonard "Leonard! I only ask her to dance because she look sad!" Leonard looked shocked. "He'll do anything to make someone feel better." Cass explained. "All in favor of agreeing with me say 'Aye'." I said. "Aye." Leonard said. "Aye." Sarvain said. "Aye." Vet said. "Aye." Yulie said. "Aye." Cass said. "... Aye." Cyrus said. "Aye. And I believe i will come along." Eldore said as we looked at him.
"You are?" Cass ask. "Names Eldore my lady. Just a humble traveler but i can swing a sword and cast the odd spell or two." Eldore said. "Very well. You'll come with us." I said with a smile. "Then let me to join you!" Cyrus called out at me. "Impossible Cyrus. With all that happened the people are scared. You and Sarvain must be there to help them." I said.
"And leave it to you and strangers to decide the princess' fate?" Cyrus ask. "Yes. This is what fate has chosen. You can't change it no matter what you do." I explained as Cyrus grumbles angrily. "I agree with him. Sir Cyrus we must prepare to defend the realm." Sarvain said. "We leave tomorrow tonight we rest here." I said as everyone nodded.
Everyone left until me, and Sarvain was left. "What did i tell you Sarvain? I told you i was serious to keep your identity a secret." I said. Sarvain smirked and said "You sure are Bailey. May i trust you to keep it a secret till the time is right?" "Yes Sarvain i'll keep the info that you killed both Valtos, and Floraine hidden." I said. Sarvain smirked before saying "See you next time."
I nodded before i leave.
