AN: "SPOKEN" (TELEAPATHY)[Place Jumps]

Chapter 12 and not many more until this story is done. I've decided to make my next story. The Warped Aurameres
into a sequel of this one so no need to ask for one. Anyway, Phobos is confronted in the first of another two parter.
A bit short but I felt it stopped where it should. I Think this Is gonna be about 14 chapter when I finish, 15 if I decide
to do a Epilogue but I might just make that a mini story between the two main ones.

A Unforeseen Opponent

[Halfway Across Castle Wyrm Bridge]

"We can't get any closer there are to many flames." Caleb said hiding behind a dome shield that Will was using the heart
to create. Kate was reflecting some of the flames back using her own shield. While Hay Lin used wind to blow some off
target and Sarah made some curve of course by changing the concept of Gravity. "What do we do then?" Cornelia asked
her once heart throb. "I know, I could alter reality again." Tara offered, and was about to do so when Skyshade put a hand
on her shoulder. "No, you've done that to much already, we can't risk you passing out here." Skyshade said shooting down
the idea. "What do you think we should do then birdie." Irma said at him. "I know." Taranee said cutting in before Skyshade
retorted. "Irma, shoot water above the the castle wall. Sarah, hold it their and make it fall on them like a tonne of bricks."
Taranee said, as she made another flame turn off to the side and down into the trench around the castle. Doing as she said
Irma sent water flying forward from her hands and over the large wall of different shield towards the castle. Sarah used gravity
to hold it in one place., causing it become a large ball of water floating above the castle wall.

The amount of force the large ball of water made as Sarah returned gravity to normal, washed all of the guards shooting fire
at them of of the wall. Cascading down the outside of the wall the water, partially fill the trench, turning it into a moat like many
would have expected a castle to have. Protecting themselves from the last of the frames, before stopping the efforts they had
been using to do, the group moved forward, followed once again by the small army like rebellion behind them. Upon reaching
the gate to the castle they were confronted by another problem. How to get through the gate with bringing the castle down
with it. Tara once again said she could warp the door open, but Skyshade refused to let her.

"Can you freeze the door?" Angelina asked The Guardians. Hay Lin and Irma both said they could on got on to doing so, combined
water with ice cold wind causing the gate to ice over. "Here we go." Angelina said to herself, ripping past of the stone bridges side
up in her hand, before throwing it at the frozen gate with super strength. The stone smashed through ice, and then brittle wood
causing the left gate to swing open with great force, slamming a few of the guards away. "Guardians, Girls pair off with your other
selves and look for Phobos." Caleb order and got no complete except from Hay Lin who pointed out her other half wasn't here.
Caleb said he would go with her, leaving Skyshade to go off with the native Srislis.

Fighting their path through the guards and off in to the main castle, the rebellion confronted the guards in force. Pushing them back
and slowly winning the fight making it so the hero of the story could try and find Phobos without having to worry about the guards.
The search of the castle was pretty touch and go. While Will, Kate, Irma, and Sarah took the left half of the castle. Tara, Taranee ,
Angelina and Cornelia took the right. Leaving the Skyshade, Hay Lin, Caleb and Srislis to take the centre of the castle.

It was Skyshade and Srislis who came across the first major foe inside of the castle, of course they didn't know it at the time,
bursting into to a room which seemed to a eating area, for the guards of the castle. Inside their was only one person, a lizard
man, who look similar to the Srislis, but to Skyshade they all did. Diving out of the way a flame that the guard fired Skyshade
couldn't help but ask a question. "Why is it that every guard we fought breaths fire and you can't." Skyshade asked annoyed by
this fact. It wasn't Srislis who answered but the guard, laughing like a manic. "It a born talent, only those with are allowed to
hold military positions." The guy said sending another ball of fire at Skyshade.

Jumping into the air to dodge and swooping down out the guard expecting to take him out as easily as any other, he was surprised
when the guard grabbed his foot spun round and sent him flying off into a wall. "You can't beat me, Phobos made me, I'm unstoppable."
The lizard man said jumping through t the air after Skyshade and slamming both his feet into his chest as Skyshade was falling to the
floor. Srislis attacked as both of them hit the floor, jumping through the air him self and onto the back of the stronger guard. Srislis
wasn't their long as the guard grabbed his arms and tossed him over his head into the wall Skyshade had just hit.

Regaining himself Skyshade jumped up from the ground and punched the guard in the jaw sending him reeling back and over a table.
Helping Srislis up from the ground, both were shock to see the guard up again ready to fight. "Aww come on this is just wrong."
Skyshade complained in manner that anyone on his world would have hit him for. He had picked one to many habits from earth, and
one was fighting dirty. Charging the guard, hovering off the ground and grabbing him Skyshade sunk his teeth in to lizard man scales,
causing him to scream out in pain. While he was distracted by the pain, Skyshade punched him in the jaw again, and kicked him in the
chest knocking him down. The fight was over as Srislis jump into assisted slamming his foot down on the headed of the floored guard,
a large snap sound sounded, and both looked at each other before walking off. "Who was that guy?" Skyshade asked amazed one
guy had been so much trouble for him. "Captain of the Guard." Srislis replied following.

It was Will and Kate who the next fight befell, another guard almost as strong as the captain, less effort for the both of them, but it
left them wondering what Phobos had been doing to make these guys as strong as they were, they could tell it was not normal for
these people. Eventually while the castle was slowly taken over by the rebellion. Skyshade and Srislis reached the door to the throne
room of the castle. "Do you think he will be in here." Srislis asked. "Most likely." Skyshade replied. "Then shouldn't we wait for the
others." Srislis tried to say in reason. Skyshade ignored and walked inside. Only to be a shock by who he saw. Yes Phobos was their,
but not in a lizard form as he had been expecting, but in his normal looking human form. Next to him was someone Skyshade had never
expect to see, Pao Chai stood their expressionless and motionless.

"PAO" Skyshade screamed out his voice drowned by the large slamming sound of the door behind them. "You must be Skyshade, and
your the escapee, I'm impressed by your efforts in reaching me, it is almost a pity that you have not even a fighting chance against
me." Phobos said egotistically. Skyshade charged only to be seized by black vines that came from the wall. "Child, put him to sleep and
change him to my will. Kill the other." Phobos said. Sitting down in his throne and lounging back. A Serpent scream came from the throne
room, as a pillar of lighting struck Srislis. Skyshade tried to get him to realise it was a illusion but was unable to before Srislis fell down
dead. Slowly he fell sleep come over himself, and darkness surrounded him, and for the second time he was lost to a illusion.

All the others had heard Srislis scream from the throne room, and immediately ran towards the scream, unlike the over confident Skyshade
when one arrived they waited for all the others, that remained. "Lets go." Will said pushing the door open, and all of them entered the
room. The room was completely the same as it had been when Skyshade had arrived except Pao was no longer in the room, and in her place
stood Skyshade, with a look of anger on his face. "Phobos, it's time for you to return to Kandrakar." Will shouted at the villain. "By all means
try, I just hope you don't mind going through your friend. Skyshade destroy them." Phobos said calmly. Skyshade hand glowed, his right ring
finger was no longer bear, and the ring Pao had once taken was back. Beams of deadly light, flames, water, changes in gravity, lighting super
strong punches. All were trade like money, back on forth as Skyshade attacked upon attack and counter. The Guardians and Girls were trying
their best not to harm him, but his lack of restraint was making it to difficult. Tara was knocked unconscious and Irma had been tossed out
of the throne room window.

All fought on, and when Skyshade finally seem about to give up, he was enveloped in light. Pure energy seemed to build up inside him.
"He's gonna blow." Sarah shouted taking cover. Then what happened next shocked Phobos. Skyshade stopped glowing, his light was
heading elsewhere, his power was moving to someone else. Kate was now standing in front of Skyshade absorbing his power. Collapsing
to the ground Skyshade slept again. "NO THE FOOL WAS MEANT TO DESTROY YOU ALL." Phobos voice screamed out of no where. The form
of Phobos sitting on the throne faded and was replaced by another Pao sat their, and then the room changed, becoming pure darkness.
Irma was back and laid unconscious next to Tara. "DESTROY THEM CHILD OR I WILL DESTROY YOU" Phobos voice screamed again. Another
fight was about to start, and creatures appeared everywhere in the darkness. With only four of the Guardians and three of the Astral girls
plus Caleb able to fight the number of creature and Pao Chai would defeat them with ease unless they thought of something. Phobos
laughed, Pao screamed and the creatures attacked.
