chapter Ten
I called to rain and got on her back. Her rotting body was unusually warm today which worried me. I looked over at War and he wasn't on his horse. I smiled and watched him as i walked along beside him. As we walked we came to a four-way stop. I looked around and saw that there was sand everywhere which disgusted me. I had always hated sand, the way it would get stuck in my shoes and i would have to sweep every inch of the floor. When i would walk around on my bare feet the sand would stick and annoy me and i would get all OCD about it and have to clean every inch of it. i sighed softly and then i heard wings beating and i knew that it was one of two things: a: an angel, or b: a demon, both of which did not enjoy my company and i preferred the element of surprise rather than have someone get the drop on me.
"War!" i heard Uriel scream. I sighed softly and rode swiftly off trying to hide from the angel whom i had deceived. i hid in the underpass and watched their battle start and i sighed riding off in the direction i knew we were heading. i dispelled Rain as we got to a great expanse of sand. I spread my armored wings and flew high into the air and as i looked down a great worm had jumped from the ground in which it had been hiding.
"Kayle." I heard War scream as i got to the other stretch of land to get away from the damned worm. I sat down weakly and watched War cross with no trouble at all. I felt myself being called by the council and i gave in to sleep falling back with a soft thud. As i opened my eyes three stone heads had appeared before me.
"Are things going well? I see he gave you a thorough beating." The one on the left sighed watching me carefully.
"Yes masters, but he is getting all he needs and soon shall be done." I said climbing to my feet and bowing to them.
"Good soon he will be taken care of." the one on the right laughed.
"Please, daughter, from now on call us Father." the middle said. I bowed to them and smiled softly. The world came back into view and i saw a giant worm much larger than all the others. It was attacking War and he seemed to be having a grand time slaying the thing.
"There is the girl." A demon hisses. I open my wings and fly off towards War But as i near him i can feel giant claws grab me and i scream in pain as he tightens his grip on me. I look up and see the destroyer above me and soon my vision goes dark.
...
I woke to see an angel in front of me. He had dark skin and long silver hair, he wore white fur on the shoulders of his gold and silver trimmed armor. There was a gold ornate cross over his right eyes and i couldn't see passed it to tell whether or not there was an eye there or not.
"My daughter," he sneered, "tell why you lay dormant in this weak girl?" His hands entered my body and i screamed in pain.
"Abaddon, leave the girl alone." War growled.
"Why, this is my daughter. I have the right to punish her as i see fit." He laughs as he pulls out his hands causing her to come forth and struggle against the restraints. Finally i become to weak to try and take over and i give her free rein over my body. As i dream i can hear Deaths voice calling to me.
...
"Kayle!" i heard someone scream. At first the voice was unrecognizable, but soon i came to know it. I could see light in the distance and then a voice whispering to me. I began waking, searching for the soothing voice that called me forth. I felt my eyes open and i was laying on my side one of his scythes in my throat. I saw destruction all around me and i looked down at the four horseman in front of me. Their weapons were drawn and ready to strike me. I looked down and saw that yet again i was a dragon. I roared in sorrow and pushed myself up, backing away. pebbles shifted as i neared the edge and i tried to open my wings and i roared in pain. I knew one of them was broken and that if i fell it was all over for me. I looked at Death and noticed that his other scythe was laid down on the ground.
"Kayle?" he asked. He stepped closer and i watched him as he came to me. He put his hand on my chest and pulled out his scythe. I moan in pain and as he steps back the ground under my back legs breaks and i roar trying to stay on the ledge as i drag my claws. I claw desperately at the earth trying to stay up but soon i fall over the edge and plummet to the ground below. As i hit the ground i heard a sickening crack. I moan slightly and lay my head on the ground. The earth around smells of roses and no more rotting flesh. Oh, how i had missed the sweet fragrance of roses and then it turned to the acrid smell of burning and rotting flesh, which was the world around me. I saw two little girls and their parents standing next to me. I tried to get up but found that my leg was broken. I rolled over and the girls gawked at me.
"Mommy, it's a dragon, a real dragon. Can we help it?"" they said.
"If it does not threaten us then yes." their father sighs.
