Chapter 7

Galamoth fell to the floor onto the lush green grass as his sacred time blood began to stain the grass. The offender came out from the shadows of the thick foliage laughing with his scythe dripping with blood. The dragon slowly got back onto his feet as Alucard pulled out his sword, ready to oppose Death. The reaper began to laugh again at the young Prince's attempt to kill him.

"Aww, cute." Death mocked.

"Why you bastard?"

"Oh who knew Father Time had such a snake tongue. You Time Travellers annoy the shit out of me. You know, whenever one of my Reapers and one of your guardians are in the same area, it kills the Reaper. I only have so many of them you know."
"Reapers are easier to make then my guardians."

"I do not care."
"There is too much concentrated magic that flows around us. That is what kills your Reapers. I can not help that."
"Well I could kill your guardians. But, then again. You felt it did you not."

"A mirror merging into this reality. WHAT DID YOU DO!?"
"Who said I did it?"
"JUST TELL."

"Oh I just got Paranoia to use an actual mirror to use it as a gateway to another reality. He messed up a few things in that other reality, causing Magnus to be resurrected. Well, more like survive the attack that Adrian did to him."
"And now they are fusing. Why Death?"

"All shall fall into place." he said as he vanished away, "Come to Carmilla's Castle."

"That is a trap."
"Sadly, Death is beyond our recollection. Since he is another God-like entity, I cannot see his future. I do not know if it is a trap or not." he said flying away on those massive wings.

"Alright Death. What are you doing?"

Galamoth's blood began to drip down his back and onto the crimson red rug that was on the ground. The dragon scanned the room with his eyes as he did Carmilla came out from the giant double doors that were in her throne room. She smiled as she walked up to him.

"This is an honour." she said, "What's a big strong dragon like you doing here?"
"Death brought me."

"I see. You must be here for the ceremony."
"Ceremony?"
"Don't listen to that crazy woman!" a male voice said.

The man was a hunter, he came with a lady and another man. The man that came with him had silver spiky hair and the lady had long strawberry blonde. Carmilla laughed as the older man pulled out his sword.

"I am Morris Baldwin, this is James Graves and his wife Maggie. We are here to stop your ceremony."

"Really." she said as Death appeared behind her.

As she began to smile at Death, Dracula arose from the coffin that was behind the both of them. Galamoth's heart sank, for over a million years he'd kept time safe from shattering, but now he could feel that it was on the brink of breaking.

"YOU BUNCH OF IDIOTS! Do you have any idea what you have done!?"
"Revived Dracula." Carmilla said.

"Time is on the brink of shattering. Everything will freeze."
"So." Dracula said.
"What?" Morris said.

"Since when did I care about time? I am an immortal."
"You are still affected by the witch spell Time Stop. You will freeze."

"Really, Death. Kill him."
"With pleasure master."

Galamoth barely dodged the scythe as it swung, aiming for his neck. He landed on his feet, but as he did, more blood poured out from the wound on his back. Death's scythe carries a special poison, that disables the regenerative abilities of magical begins, this includes ones with the powers over time. Galamoth and the Guardians of Time can't be killed by normal means, only an Angel of Death can kill them, otherwise their abilities force them to self revive. The wound on Galamoth's back also went onto his left wing, slicing the bone in two, but the wing was still attached.

Father Time pulled out his claws and charged at Death with poisonous claws of his own. Saint Germain can do the same, but that power comes with the sword that he carries with him. All the powers that the guardians can use came from their master. The powers that were in the fragments are now only at half the power they once were before they split.

It was at that moment, when Death swung his scythe once more, that a white wolf with red markings appeared. Biting the handle of the staff. Death flicked the wolf off the scythe, throwing her up into the air and slicing her as he did.

"AMATERASU!"

The cosplay Time Guardian lay on the ground with her body cut at the abdomen, 'I guess I am not strong enough to face Death.' she barked.

Amaterasu and Chronomage were the ones that received the weakest fragment of their master's power. They can only travel through time and freeze it, they were never meant to fight. But Amaterasu never understood that, so she tries and she had been training her teeth and learning how to wield a short sword. Her fragment had become stronger too.

"We just need to take you back to the river. Zeph-"

'Father don't. Death just wants us all to fall. I hope you're not still hungry.'

"Famished."
'Damn it.'

Death swung his blade a second time. He managed to stabbed the giant blade into the body of Father Time.
'Father!' Amaterasu whimpered as she fell into the unconscious realm.

Galamoth pulled out the blade from his body, as he did he jabbed his claws into Death's face.

As this fight was happening, Morris pulled out his sword. He was ready to face Dracula. Both of the hunters charged with their weapons ready. James allowed his whip to crack right at Dracula's face, the Vampire fell backwards as he lost his footing from the blow. Morris charged at the monster with his sword, but the Vampire dodged by turning into a black cloud of mist.

As the Vampire misted out of the way of the sword, Galamoth was struck by the scythe. He lay on the ground with server heavy breathing. Fighting after only just waking up, being dehydrated and starving was never a good idea.

"Now the ceremony can begin." he said holding his scythe above his head.

The scythe was just about to penetrate Father Time's heart, when another body block its desired path.
