It seemed just like yesterday... just a few days ago that I met him. That I jumped ravines, that I risked my life, that I risked it all for him... and now... I'm a spirit hovering over my corpse. I'm looking down as Void ties me on his back in a frantic attempt to save me. He wanted to get me to Ocea... that wouldn't help. I'm dead and my mother's ghost was sitting next to me as we were glued to my corpse.
"He loves you, you know?" She mused, combing my hair with her fingers.
"I know..."
"Do you love him?"
"Yes..."
"Why didn't you jump out of the water too?"
"Panic."
"Are you always going to give me one word answers?"
"Maybe."
"Really?"
"I'm not sure... I didn't want to die, but I'm okay with it... or... am I not dead?"
"Not yet..."
"Not yet?"
"No. There's a less drastic way to save your life. He knows. He's afraid he won't be fast enough though."
"You never told me you were a dragon."
"You never asked."
"Yeah, like that would've come up in conversation."
"Hey! I just... I was saving it until you changed..."
"Well, I guess I won't earn my wings before death, eh?"
"Not true."
"Really?"
"If he knows where he's going, we'll make it."
"We'll?"
"We will."
"Hmm... do you think he loves me, or my innocence?"
"Both, secondly out of obligation. If he doesn't keep you alive, he'll kill himself."
"What?"
"Yeah... he's a bit drastic... but it's out of love... you know?"
"I... don't want him to die! It's not his time!"
"He knows that... but he'll sure damn try..." She mused, patting me on my shoulder as she faded away. Breakaway from this earth... you're awfully lucky... to be able to die...
Void, or now Voidaea, slid into the village, my body in his arms, Ocea running up, panic in her eyes as he held me, tears in his eyes.
"What the hell happened?" She screamed, taking me from him.
"A... Agnis... showed up. He turned the water into Black Acid... h-his skin absorbed it, Osaea..." He sobbed, biting his lip.
"He... that bastard."
"Please... he's got to get to the Emerga Angel."
"That place... is locked."
"What?"
"Ezmarie locked it!"
"NO!" He shouted, my eyes fluttering open, my soul back in my body.
"I know... the code..." I stammered, stepping down, walking unconsciously toward a rock wall.
"You can't, she never told... anyone..." Osaea began, my arm coiling back, coming onto the wall, the rock crumbling. I stepped inside the closed up cave.
"That's... impossible... that stone was unbreakabele!" Osaea gaped, my body trudging through the darkness, Void running up to me.
"H... Hiccup... you've got to stop this madness. you don't know the code..."
"I do... my mother... told me... right before she died." I gasped, leaning on the door to the Emerga Angel Sanctuary.
"Please..."
"It's... Shegyesho... myutami... Nai... tetsugai... rokonin..." I pressed the stones, the door gushing open with a force of my body falling on it.
"I don't believe it..." Void whispered, picking me up. Inside was the most beautiful room with a calm river of silver running through it and light flowing in between the stones at the bed. It was a river of stars.
"Heheh... no one ever believs in me... do they?" I laughed flatly, his arms setting me in the water, the electricity flooding over me.
"See? I told you that you'd make it." She laughed, my head turning, the angelic woman smiling.
"Ezmaria?"
"The one and the only. Like it?" She smiled, spinning.
"Ezmaria?" Void asked, staring at her. "Who is she?"
"I'm Hiccup's older sister!" She grinned mad, my body sitting up. I felt completely pure again, my body returned to its former state without the acid.
"Hey, Nee-chan." I smiled, hugging her.
"You mean... that..."
"She's my father's daughter as well... he won't talk about you though..." I smiled, only knowing that she'd run off when she was thirteen.
"You look..."
"Just like my mother?"
"Yes..."
"I know. We were identical." She smiled, ruffling my hair. "I've missed you. Damn, I'd never guess he'd make you gay, Hii-chan!" She laughed, hugging me tight as my face flushed red.
"Sh-shup ut..."
"Speech issues?"
"Leave me alone. I just took a bath in acid and stars!" I flushed, hugging her back. I missed her tons.
"So... he's okay?" Void stammered, still on edge.
"I'm fine..."
"Uu... nn..." Void teared, my arms wrapping around him. I closed my fingers, weaving them together with his.
"I'm fine..." I smiled, wiping his tears from his face.
"I'm glad... that you're okay... I couldn't have done it without you..." He admitted, pressing his face to my chest. I held him close.
"I'm just glad you made it. Uu! I've been stuck in here since mom died..{}" Ezmaria stretched, laughing a bit.
"Don't scare me like that." Void breathed into my chest, his words muffled.
"I can't guarantee that, but I can promise you this." I smiled, wings coming from my back, black wings. "I can sure put up a good fight." I smiled.
"Your wings."
"Uh huh."
"Good... now I won't have to worry so much." He smiled, hugging me.
The world seemed to relax as I relaxed my wings, but the rest of my senses were heigtend. Something was coming, somthing bad. My father.
"We have to go."
"What?"
"My father, he's got something planned." I sniffed the air, the smell of unrully anger floating on the air. It made me dizzy, but I knew my father was gaining on finding this place.
"What is it?"
"It's... I think Agnis is closing in on the village!" I gasped, running from the cave. Ezamaria ran with me, out speed matched. Void lagged behind for a second as I yanked open Ocea's door. "Ocea, it's Agnis." I puffed, Ezmaria's sight catching Ocea off guard.
"Ezmaria?"
"Long time no see, but this is more important."
"What's that old fool up to now?"
"Our father... Agnis... combine those two in a room and add powermad vikings. What do you get."
"A clash of gods."
"Round up a few people. This is gonna get messy."
"Where's Clarane?" I butted in, her finger tapping my shoulder.
"Right here. We have to stop them." She smiled, having given into her better nature. She was more kind hearted then I could take and she was so much more than what Void was about to attack. Void caught up with us after shock from sitting in the Emerga Angel.
"Claranie?" Void gasped, her change of style and attitude causing him to shake his head. "If we stop those mad men then I know the world's over." He sighed, Ocea notioning for me to come over.
"You have a careful asset. When your dad sees you..."
"He'll swing at me."
"what?"
"He'll call me a traitor and swing at me."
"Are you serious?"
"Dead."
"Shit."
"Well think of it this way. I'm unstoppable, am I right?" I smirked, my teeth sharpening.
"Just don't get in over your head, kid." She smiled, my body pumping adrenaline into my veins. I was ready, I was ready... now.
I walked outside and Void, Ezmaria, and Claranie had gathered a hanful of dragons including Tine, Exis, and Rinalii, Rinalii running up and hugging me.
"Feel better?" I smiled, patting her on her shoulder.
"Much. So uh, we going up against your dad?"
"Sigh... yes, but steer clear of him, that's my job." I smiled, reassuring the crowd that they had a thirty minute lag to stay back. "Okay? Steer clear of the chief, he's mine. I want all of you to stay back for thirty minutes and as soon as that lag is up, full speed." I shouted, taking Void, Ezmaria, and Rinalii with me. "Ocea stay behind and lead the back lag inward and remember, stear cleer of my father.
This was a war, this was a battle, this was the end.
