I've been… having writer's block again… due to all the boredom at school my friends and I have started to write and draw a new story… it's very, very weird. I'm super bored at my school so leave me be! Anyways thanks for the reviews, here's the next chapter.
Maz shot two Wyverns and Pegasus knights down with his Silver bow. The Romiah was busy healing Joel while he defended her from all those that might try to attack them. Zash had managed to dodge a Flux spell when Zang came by with his Silver sword getting a clean cut off the Druid's head. Jailith was busy chanting spells from his Elthunder tomb while Elinsa was giving him time to chant them all.
Sorina had just sent a fireball at a General nearby when Benis got his lance through the General's throat. Shard had then broken a General's lance with his own Killer Axe while Selina and Sasha did a double attack on the same General. Just then Sereno had set the same General on fire with Elfire ending his life.
Rune was keeping a Warrior's Silver Axe away from her body on the left by using her sword to keep it away from her; just then Maria had jumped on the flat side of the axe surprising the Warrior and silted his throat with her Killing Edge.
Roland was busy fighting some Nomadic Rangers with his Silver Sword slowly winning the battle. After a while the group got to Harold who was waiting for them at the gates to the Dragon's Gate.
"I see you managed to get this far, but how much longer will you all be able to prevail?" Harold asked as his Wyvern took air to launch an attack at the group.
Maz then shot three Brave arrows at the Wyvern lord, but only one of them managed to made contact with Harold's wyvern. Harold then threw a short spear at Maz having it narrowly miss him. Sasha flew with her Silver Axe in hand and attacked Harold. Harold's wyvern flew to the left missing the attack, and then flew back in trying to have the lance to hit Sasha, but that attempt failed since Sasha's wyvern flew forward to have the lance miss Sasha. Maz gritted his teeth as he tried to aim for Harold, but couldn't really get a good shot.
"Hold still," Maz gritted through his teeth as he continued aiming, but to make things worse Selina came in the battle holding her Silver Lance to stop Harold's attack.
Sasha then slammed her axe down onto Harold's lance breaking it into two. Maz than had a better shot and let go a Silver bow having it pierce deep into the wyvern on the chest giving it a critical hit. The wyvern then fell to the ground and Harold was the only thing between the ground and the wyvern.
"Ouch," Sasha chuckled with delight.
The two flying units then landed on the ground to where everyone else was at.
"Come on, we have to get further in," Romiah said. Everyone silently agreed as they went in the building. There they saw the same myrmidon talking to some guy in a cloak concealing himself really well.
"Then I shall take my leave," the man said; just then an image of Edward the appeared in Rune's mind.
'He sounds so familiar,' Rune thought as the man disappeared. The myrmidon grinned happily see who she had to kill.
"This will be enjoyable! Hope you all know how to defend yourselves in the dark!" the myrmidon chirped as the torches lit themselves off.
"Maria!" Rune yelled. Another battle too soon, but to make things worse… it was in complete darkness.
"No one can actually see in the dark. Just go and light the torches," Maria stated since there was nothing seen in the darkness. Not even a little tint of light. Sorina gave out a sigh as she used her torch staff lighting the darkness a whole lot.
"It will do in the meantime, but I suggest we light the torches we past so the lights will stay on," Sorina said as she looked over to the fire sage. Sereno nodded as she light a nearby torch with her fire tomb.
"Now it's easier for the enemy to target us as well," Maria said seeing what Rune's reaction would be.
"Fine then let's just be ready to attack," Rune said back as she clutched her weapon tighter.
"If that thing was alive you would have killed it by now," Roland commented.
'Shut up you dam bastard,' Rune thought.
"Come on, let's get going already," Zash said knowing how the group is becoming a sitting duck by the second. Just then a man jumped up to the air spinning and when he finally stopped he had his sword coming down right for Romiah.
"Romiah!" Zang yelled as he intercepted the attack with his two kenochi swords. Zash then stabbed the man through the stomach with his Silver Sword.
"That was close," Benis said.
"Sort of noticed that," Rune said then looked at the darkness that was ahead of them. It seemed like it was opening its arm towards the group with a welcoming of metal piercing their skins.
"Maria go in front and tell us what you see," Rune said. Maria gave out an annoyed sigh as she peered into the darkness ahead.
"There are three paths, and each one of them may carry some enemies waiting to ambush us. The one straight ahead does have paladins arranged in an order or lances, axes, and then swords. It seems like they are waiting for a signal to attack," Maria said.
"Is there any torches to light there?" Rune asked. Maria nodded.
"There is one on the left to the corner and one on the right at the corner. If you light them I may be able to see the other people waiting," Maria said.
Rune looked over to Sereno and nodded. Sereno then nodded back as she took a step forward and cast more fireball spells. The fireball that was sent to the left hit the torch lighting it really well while the other one missed it's target and ended up burning someone.
"Uhh… Sorina wanna have a go?" Rune asked to the troubadour. Sorina send Rune a grin as she cast a fireball spell and got it to hit the mark this time. On the ground was a visible head burned.
"Nice hit I guess Sereno," Zash commented. Maria rolled her eyes as she looked at the path on the right.
"Okay there are sages, druids, and bishops on the right. The one on the left has knight and generals," Maria reported. Rune nodded.
"Zash and I can handle the paladins," Zang said.
"Yeah, but some back up wouldn't hurt. Jailith and Sorina I want you to go with time to help them out with the lancers, but don't get hurt while you are at it," Rune said then looked over at Sasha, Selina, Maria, and Roland.
"I want you four to take care of the spell casters, and Roland I know you know how to heal people so do it when they get hurt," Rune said. Rune looked at Elinsa, Benis, Shard, Sereno, and Joel.
"Shard, Benis, Sereno and I will go to go and to the right and take care of the generals and knights. Romiah you stay there in the middle. Joel and Elinsa I want you two to make sure no one is going to give us a large surprise attack from the back. Those who gets hurt fall back to get healed by Romiah if the healer with you can't help you are the moment," Rune said. Everyone nodded as they went to the formation they would be heading out. The battle then started when the group split up to do what they were told. A roar from the Wyvern Lord's wyvern that had just arrived at the entrance of the gate gave the sounded like a signal for the battle to start, and indeed it did.
Maria was the first one to strike running through the crowd of sages, druids, and bishops. She was close to the ground as she strikes at them one by one with her killing edge. Selina was having a little trouble getting around the hall, but the she was able to knock the spell casters down as kill some while she was at it. Sasha was throwing her hand axe at the unprepared sages killing them instantly from the surprise attack Maria gave them then the knock down from Selina's Pegasus. Roland then came in the hall stabbing them silly with his Silver Sword having the blood leave a small trail in the air when he pulled his sword out.
Jailith had used his Thunder to get rid of the lancers in front while Sorina used her Elfire. Zang and Zash then rode by slicing their way through. Zang's horse leaped over the dead bodies of the paladins while Zash just walked through them. As the two lords went though the way of the paladins the sage and valkyrie followed killing those they left behind and may cause a threat. The paladins were left with scorched marks or large gashes on them as they fell to the floor dead.
Shard had just broken a general's lance with his Silver Axe while Benis blocked the lance heading straight towards him with his own lance. Rune then ran in front of the general and manage to do a hit on the general, but the armor was to strong. Just then an Elfire hit the general that lasted longer than usual killing the general. Sereno was standing behind Benis with a small grin of her own as she went off to get rid of the other generals.
Elinsa and Joel was busy battling the wyverns that was coming in from the entrance. Joel had managed to cut a wyvern rider off the wyvern and had the axe go right through the armor of the stomach and hit the cold floor. Elinsa hand then shot a Brave bow arrow at the wyvern's neck ending its life while Joel took care of the rider. Romiah was using her Shine tome to attack those Wyvern Knights that were barely alive.
The battle had just barely begun and yet blood had already painted the floors and walls. Many dead bodies were all over the floor, and more was of them were still falling. From the looks of it, it seems like an endless battle that will never end.
