What's this? Voidex actually published a new chapter? Yes! I thought i might have uploaded sooner but i never expected to cruise around the whole damn world! Anyways, im back for now and ready for action! (Might be shipped off to Alaska soon ;_;). (Also may have learned Html, CSS, Javascript, Flash, and Python.)
Anyways, Back to the story!
Sophie's POV:
I sat there with a red-headed girl whose name was Zoey. She was introducing herself and some of her companions while i was busy repairing C0B4LT, my personal Mechanical Bodyguard. After some mindless chatter and laughs, We hear an explosion in the distance. Zoey jumped, her hair spiking up, Although i wasnt any better. We decided to check it out after i rebooted C0B4LT. The Automaton slowly stood up, towering over me and Zoey. After a little bit of walking, we finally reached the area where the explosion happened. Turns out, its some sort of Space Rock. It simmers with heat as we approach it. After a bit of close inspection, we find a little crack in the rock. Inside the rock, there was some creature wriggling around. Not wanting to burn my fingers, i grab a nearby stick and poke through the crack, to my surprise the little creature pushed the stick out and, after a little bit, wriggled out.
It was a small, Spider-like creature with the only differences from spiders being that it is a lot larger and that it is a Light Shade of Purple.
Zoey backed away very quickly, making a few whimpers as she moved. Apparently she doesnt like spiders. Personally i like spiders, i have a couple of them back at home.
That aside, the creature seemed scared too, it scurried around frantically trying to hide, but we were in an open plain, so there was nowhere to hide. At last, it cowered on the grass, realizing that it may die. I noticed its fear, so i gently picked it up and placed it on my shoulder. Very quickly it calmed down realizing that i hadn't harmed it. Zoey on the other hand, always kept 10 paces away from me. I chuckled as i asked:
I ask: Hey Zoey, where was the village again?
Zoey collects herself for a moment, then answers: Oh, um, I think it was that way!
And with that, we set off.
Shade's POV:
I was walking back home with Vixerus on my shoulders, chatting and laughing, until i felt a chill creep up my spine. I then stopped
Vixerus was surprised at my sudden stop and asked: Why are we stopping?
I shake the feeling off and reply: Oh, um i just needed to catch my breath for a moment, lets keep going!
After a while, Vixerus was able to walk so i set him down and we continued.
i then felt a feeling of dread.
I shrugged it off again and then, after a bit of walking i sensed that something was coming.
I stop. Vixerus looks at me perplexed and asks: Ok, whats wrong?
I turn to him and say: Something is coming, get ready.
I materialize my two trusty blades, Darkfury and Shrieksong, whilst Vixerus prepares his magic.
Suddenly, thumping could be heard,
The ground was shaking,
I could hear my heartbeat as i gripped my blades,
A bloodcurdling roar can be heard from the distance,
Suddenly, a giant, hideous Amalgamation appears
Its face has 3, Bloodshot, Bulging eyes and a giant Maw that could Consume anything, It has Giant Dragon-like Wings and an Ogre Body,
It has 6 arms, each holding a different weapon, One was holding a Scimitar, a Pike, a Dagger and an Array of other weapons.
It charged at us, flecking slobber all over the place. Vixirus, with his magic, raised a Stone Blade from the ground under the Amalgamation, Flinging it into the air.
I regained some composure as i charged, both blades ready to Strike at it in a Criss-Cross pattern. Eventually, i Jumped high into the air, and as i was about to strike, it suddenly recovered, It turned its head towards me, all three Eyes staring through my soul. I hesitated, For the first time in my life something stuck fear into me.
It swung a giant club at me, smashing me to the ground. With the wind knocked out of me, i was going to be slaughtered if it weren't for Vixerus, who blasted the creature with a Fireball midair, Sending it flying, and eventually it smashed into a wall of Stone. I regained composure, and with a fit of fury, charged at the Winded Beast, ready to strike! As i struck at its heart with my Darkfury, It blocks the attack. I leap back, ready to parry any attack from this Thing. It leaps, Swinging all 6 weapons right at me, Predictable as he was, i was easily able to avoid the attack, allowing me to get behind it and, with all of my might, Pierce through its spine with both of my blades. It releases a Ferocious roar, Attempting to throw me off as i clung to him with my blades. Suddenly, A bolt of thunder appears, and the Amalgamation is struck down by Vixerus' magic. Or so we thought. After i pulled out both of my blades, it leaped into the air, flapping its mighty dragon wings, and released all of its weapons. We were confused but we kept our guard up. Suddenly, Magical orbs appeared in each of his hands. Fire, Water, Earth, Ice, Wind and Darkness.
I jumped at it, Attempting to chop off one of its hands, But suddenly i was scorched as is blasted me with a Fireball. Vixerus used a Water spell to extinguish me, and also blasted the Beast with Light Magic, It recoiled with a grunt of pain, and it ensnared Vixerus using his Earth magic, binding him with stone. Thanks to Vixerus i found his weakness. Light magic harms him, so cleverly i snatched a light tome from Vixerus, wincing at the burning sensation in my hands, and i cast a Light beam spell at the creature, It dodged but was distracted, so i blasted several light beams at once. Eventually, i blasted off his Earth arm, freeing Vixerus from the Stone Snare as it crumbles. Vixerus took over, Blasting it with light orbs until all of its arms were gone, although he did get blasted by different elements. Eventually i managed to chop off a wing, and the Beast entered Freefall. When it landed, it started to breathe heavily, gasping for air as we started to calm down. Suddenly, we heard a voice:
?: Interesting...
Vixerus: Who's there! Show yourself!
Suddenly an Ethereal being appears, with wings like an angel and a holy glow.
?: I am Kynar, Lord of light, and i see that you have defeated the Dark Champion. Good Work.
I ask: Thank you, but why are you talking to us?
Kynar: I am here to deliver a message, i was going to appear right before the Dark Champion attacked you but i decided to wait until you defeated it.
Here is the message: "In the land of Fear, where many have been yet many have not, seek the Three, and the Dark Spirit shall become vulnerable."
Vixerus asks: What does it mean?
Kynar dissapears without explaining.
Me and Vixerus were perplexed, but eventually decided to head back, and would think about it later.
Later...
We eventually arrived at the house, with Manga there being the first to greet us.
Manga says cheerily: Welcome home! And who is this?
I reply: This is Vixerus. He is a new member to the family.
Manga gives a smile to Vixerus and says: Welcome to the family!
She then heads back inside, into the kitchen, preparing us all some tea. I prompt Vixerus to go inside but he wouldnt move.
I was going to ask whats wrong but then i noticed. And i think he may have a crush on Manga.
I chuckled as i pushed a blushing Vixerus inside and sat him on the couch.
Sam's POV:
I walked into the kitchen, and was going to grab a snack, when i noticed Manga was there, making tea.
I said: Hey.
She replied: Oh, hi Sam! i was making some tea for a new Guest.
i nodded and continued my "Journey" to the fridge. As i was about to open the fridge i stopped. i sighed and turned to Manga, who wasnt paying any attention to me and was humming away whilst preparing the tea. I wanted to express my emotions to her, but i was a little too shy. I opened the fridge to find there was nothing there.
I asked Manga: Hey, um what happened to the food?
She replied: Oh, everyone home is eating at the dining table, so we cleared out the fridge, remind me to go hunting.
Now's my chance... Urgh its so hard to confess!
I sigh, and gently say: Manga.
She continues to do the dishes while the water boils, and replies: Yes?
I breathe in and say: I... Love you.
I finally said it.
Manga suddenly stops cleaning a plate, puts it down and turns to me, her cheeks hot. After a little pause she asks: R-Really?
I make a smile and say: Y-yes i do...
She faces the wall, And from what i am guessing is twiddling her thumbs. She then said: O-ok then...
She continues washing the dishes.
Feeling like i made everything awkward, I left the kitchen.
Not knowing that secretly, while Manga was washing the dishes, she was smiling.
Adria's POV:
I was cleaning up the bar whilst Joseph and Wolf were doing some Drunk Bar Fights. They also are wearing some Scottish clothing apparently, Wait how did they put them on? After a while they were throwing scottish Insults at each other:
Sam: Awa' n bile your head ya bassa! (Get lost ya bastard!)
Joseph: Look at ye Face like a skelped erse!
Sam: Ye Numpty Jessie!
They start throwing punches and vomiting over eachother. Brotherly Love i guess?
Well somebody's gotta clean it up.
Oh and Wolf is sitting in the corner, Fixing up his hammer.
Arch's POV:
I'm sitting on the roof of the house, Shooting the occasional Zombie or Creeper,
Lying down and looking up into the Moon and Stars.
Thinking back into the old days, Where my family was alive.
(Woosh, Flashback)
I am outside, sitting on a bench watching the other kids play tag.
My family tried to get me to play with them, but i dont feel comfortable in large groups.
After a while i suddenly feel a hand on my shoulder, I look up to see my brother, smiling down at me. I return the smile and he prompts me to follow him home.
(Woosh, A little time later)
I wake up, its 6:35 in the morning, i get up from bed, only to find a note on the nearby table.
"Hey there little Sis! Sorry i couldn't stick around, The army called me in for an attack, so i had to leave early. See you soon! Yours truly, Adam."
(Woosh, A little more time later)
I am sitting on our family sofa, when suddenly theres a knock on the door.
i ask: Who is it?
a man Replies: The Mailman!
I open the door and the Mailman gives me a couple of notes and leaves.
I check through them: Bills, Bills, Bills, Ads, and a message from the military.
Curious, i read the letter:
"Miss Arch, We are very sad to inform you that your brother, Adam, has been Killed in Action. We believe it was a Hybrid. The weapon used to murder him was a Dagger with some Hybrid Fur."
After i read the letter, i burst out into tears, Crying for my brother
(Woosh, back to present)
I find myself weeping whilst remembering my old life. I like Shade and the others but, i feel like i dont belong...
Aaaaaaaaand Cut! There you go folks! a new chapter of Dark Crown! Stay tuned for the next one!
Ok enough Cheesy lines. Anyways, now we have a hint to "a Dark Spirit's Vulnerability", Some backstory on Arch, Some love progression on Sam and Manga, Zoey and Sophie + C0B4LT are going to the Village, Sam and Joseph are Racists Confirmed (xD), Maybe Love Triangle (Sam,Vix X Manga).
Boy we covered ground. Well anyways, Bai Bai :3
