Creation of Amoria

This is kind of a side-chapter I made dedicated to the anniversary and how much rotten luck I had at it. Didn't get a single present, all I got was a Maple Staff and a Helmet Gawd, I'm mad.

I hope this is a better chapter, I know I'm slowly moving away from my story… of course I still apparently have a loyal fan  Won't give up just yet.

Disclaimer: I in no way own Maplestory, thank Wizet/Nexon© for the game

Oh, I'm exaggerating the power of Maple Weapons so that they're as strong as lvl 110 weapons

Chapter 10 – The Legendary Weapons

"Can't… give… up…" Jenna muttered, she had slowly dragged Karne away from the balrogs, while the warrior, very feebly tried to get up and walk himself. The two were utterly exhausted but luckily, they were closer to the boundaries of Ellinia then they believed.

"Just a bit further! Come on!" Rad called, he was leaning heavily on Ariel who looked like she was about to faint. Amoria and Darren stood a bit farther back, both with worried expressions, Amoria looked quite exhausted as well.

"WATCH OUT!" Amoria called suddenly, a few balrogs had decided they couldn't let such weak prey out of their territory just yet. The young fairy knew that none of her friends could do much at the moment and Darren, she had to admit, was one weak human.

"Where are you going!" Darren called as Amoria ran out of the boundary towards the balrogs, hurrying her friends along.

"Let her…" Jenna mumbled, she had read about fairies and how much magic they had, she didn't doubt Amoria's power at the slightest.

Darren watched as Amoria stood in between two balrogs, murmuring something under her breath. A barrier formed and then suddenly a blast of white light, no one knew what happened next because they all closed their eyes or fainted dead on the spot.

"Oh my…" Amoria whispered as the light faded and she saw the items, which had just appeared on the ground.

"Hurry and come back!" Darren said, worried.

"Coming…" Amoria said, as she knelt down on the ground to examine the strange sword, staff, dagger and bow that lay on the ground. "Impossible…" she murmured, could these really be the fabled items of power? How?

"What is it?" Darren said, he couldn't take it anymore. Taking a chance he ran up and when he spotted the weapon he just stared, a bit clueless.

"Help me!" Amoria said suddenly, handing Darren the bow and sword, carrying the dagger and staff herself, she ran towards the barrier with Darren trailing behind her, still examining the items he held with curiosity.

"What are these?" he asked, but Amoria wouldn't answer, instead she got to work on healing Jenna and Karne so they could walk and then told everyone to follow her. Quickly they made their way up to Grendals home where the old mage sat talking to Martha.

"Maple weapons!" Amoria said loudly, opening the door, embarrassed at having interrupted something, which seemed to be happening at the moment.

"Amoria!" Martha said happily, before noticing the red weapons which stood in the princess's hands. "Are those…?" she gasped, and glanced at Grendal who also seemed to be quite shocked. Jenna, Karne, Rad and Ariel all fell into the room at that moment, snapping everyone into reality.

"Where?" Grendal asked, walking closer towards the weapons of immense power.

"Balrogs…" Amoria said, clutching the items until her knuckles where white.

"How have they appeared?" Grendal muttered more to himself. He glanced at the four powerful heroes and then at the weapons. "Perfect…" he whispered.

"Wow… cool! A new pretty staff!" Jenna said giggling excitedly, swinging her 'Llama Staff' around. That was the name she gave it anyways.

"Llama staff… what stupid name is that?" Darren mumbled under his breath.

"Shut up you doofus! I don't see you with a weapon!" growled Jenna, hitting Darren on the back of the head… none to lightly.

"Maple Wagnar, doesn't that just sound awesome?" Rad said grinning, as always, his names for things were quite cheesy.

"That's a pretty stupid name to…" Darren mumbled, thankfully no one hit him this time.

"What will you name yours Ariel? Karne?" Amoria asked. The warrior regarded her with a cold stare and didn't answer. Ariel did though and she came up with quite an interesting name.

"Soul Searcher…" she whispered, grinning. Then everyone turned to Karne, waiting for an answer. Jenna was still busy twirling her staff around wildly but other then that the room was silent and still.

"Name your weapon man…" Rad said in a bored tone.

"You must name these weapons in order to label them as yours…" Amoria whispered quietly, waiting. Karne didn't move, didn't speak for a long time until finally he opened his mouth. Everyone had to strain forward to hear what he had to say.

"Soul Singer…" he muttered, and then Rad grinned.

"That's so un-original dude, Soul Searcher, Soul Singer come on!" Rad said, laughing his head off. Karne didn't answer.

"Alright then… I think we should test out how powerful these weapons are…" Amoria said, leading everyone outside to their original clearing. It was strange at first, sometimes the weapons would give of enormous spurts of power and then sometimes they wouldn't work at all and became dull and weak.

"Whaat?!" Jenna said exasperated. She swung her staff around wildly mumbling the spell until a far-off explosion was heard and then Jenna sat down obediently after Amoria began yelling at her. .

"Nice…" Rad said laughing, showing off his Wagnar, which seemed to be the only thing that worked fine.

"Stop bragging!" Jenna said, pouting. Ariel and Karne trained in silence, often the warrior would fling his sword at a tree, or try to. For some reason the sword would always fly right back to his hand.

"Stupid sword!" Karne mumbled, swinging it and then chucking it, only having it returned back to his hand. Ariel was also cursing wildly to herself, her arrows would sometimes blow up a tree but that happened 1 out of 30 tries.

"Are you sure these weapons are powerful?" Darren whispered to Amoria who shrugged.

"They could be fake, but I don't think so. I think the weapons are testing out everyone first.

"Uh…" Darren said obviously confused.

"Basically the weapons are choosing if they like their new masters or not. Obviously Rads dagger likes him, and Jenna's staff doesn't mind her but Karne and Ariel are having trouble at the moment. I can tell, especially Karne," Amoria mumbled, talking rapidly.

"Wait what?" Darren asked.

"Oh never mind!" Amoria snapped, shaking her head.

"I wish I had one of those things.." Darren said half-heartedly. He looked at his own claw and frowned.

"You do have one of those weapons stupid…" Amoria said, lifting up his claw. "Look, it is red and the maple leaf shape," She said explaining reasons, which seemed to label any 'red' claw as a maple item.

"Wait… are you serious? This isn't that powerful though…" Darren said frowning.

"Of course not, you're to weak so it'll just act as a normal claw for now but you'll see its power soon!" Amoria said smiling.

"What now my BFF!" Jenna said after about day's worth of training. Amoria looked at her hometown, Orbis with a worried expression.

"Now, we plan…" the voice was Martha's.

"The maple items may be able to stop whatever is happening within that infernal dark barrier!" Grendal said seriously.

"And it is now or never, I fear that soon Orbis will be over-thrown and Ellinia and it's magic might not be able to stop it," Martha said quietly, avoiding Amoria's gaze.

"You will all go, sadly Amoria you must stay behind. Darren may go as well for his weapon is of power as well…" Grendal said quietly.

"What! But that is not-!" Amoria began protesting, but she was immediately shut up by stern stares all around her. "…I… but … " she stuttered, knowing her argument was useless.

"Look, you stay here okay? That way, I won't have to worry about you getting killed, unless Grendal and Martha suddenly go on a blood frenzy…" Darren said warmly, his eyes looking deep into the fairy's eyes. She swallowed, close to tears and nodded. "Good, we'll be fine okay?" Darren grinned, kissing her on the lips, Jenna broke into tears, literally and Karne looked away scowling. Rad whistled and Ariel … well she just stared.

"Not that big a deal!" Darren growled, Martha hid a smile and Grendal did as well.

"We will plan later… now I think you should relax…" and with a wink, the two old people left the room, laughing silently at 'young love'.

"What a nice couple…" Rad whispered into Ariel's ear, the archer turned red and looked away mumbled something like, "I guess so…".

"Come on, lets go party!" Jenna said giggling her head off, dragging Karne off with her who seemed to not mind at the slightest.

So the 6 friends walked off, unaware that they were all going completely different directions from each other.

"Hahaha… ah… the power…" whispered the King quietly. Ossyria lay weakly on the ground, her magic drained from her, leaving a weak empty shell.

"No…" the dying queen whispered, her fist still tightly clenched, not willing to let her last spell go.

Agonizingly slowly, the scepter cracked… more and more, but none of them noticed.

"What is this? Another power… but what…" growled the king to himself. He could feel the maple weapons, their holy power urging to destroy the ugly dark magic.

"Shatter…" Ossyria whispered and then an explosion was heard along with a blood-curling shriek.

Ya, again not one of my best chapters. I re-edited it although I think I still have a few grammatical errors. Obviously my Word cannot detect grammar mistakes > glares at my word document

Normally I'm good with grammar and stuff, maybe I should write these chapters in the afternoon after school instead of at night at 11:00pm before I sleep xD

Hahaha, anyways this story is sadly, coming to an end... I think for one of my first fanfictions, it's not THAT bad...

Cheers,
