Chapter 12
(T.P.O.V.) Talon's point of view
I let out a low pitched snarl, turning around toward the noise. I couldn't see whoever it was very well, so I had to squint to even try to see through the darkness.
"Show yourself!" I snarl, my powers flowing through my body, forming claws, teeth, and scales. My wings extended fully, letting the lights from above bounce off my wings, and pierce into the darkness before my. It lit up the room, except for a sphere of darkness in the center. It was in the dead center of the hallway, and I could see nothing on the inside. I could tell, without looking, that the Flight was giving the sphere the same look that I was. Which was WHAT THE FREAK IS GOING ON HERE! The voice answered from inside the cloud.
"That was very clever of you Talon, using your wings to light the darkness that surrounded you. But having tricks isn't enough to save you," it snarled. I would have rolled my eyes, if things weren't so serous.
"Blaze, I know it's you. Stand down before you embarrass yourself again," I rumble, flexing my claws. I was sick and tired of him listening to his so called masters, and trying to get in our way. I flex my muscles, and settled down into a fighting stance.
"This is your last chance," I warn. It wasn't going to get him to back down, but full points for effort, right? Well, Blaze didn't think so, and came flying out of the orb of darkness, along with the rest of his group. I gave Tora a quick nod, before charging forward, and slamming into Blaze with my shoulder blade, knocking him halfway across the room. I wasn't going to let him get up this time. I let out a roar, and charged forward; launching multiple kicks and punches while he was down. He saw it coming and rolled back, getting to his feet. We both unleashed blasts of fire, which impacted halfway across the room for each other, causing a small explosion. I didn't wait for it to subdue. I just charged right in, feeling the fire surround my skin, and then charging it into my claws. I lashed out at Blaze, claws trying to cut through scale and flesh, but sadly, he blocked every blow I threw his way. This was getting bad. Well, that is, before Tora unleashed a powerful blast of fire from her mouth, burning at her opponent's skin.
"How did you do that?" She snarled. She got no response from Tora, unless you count her chest being ripped open a response.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Blaze yelled, charging at Tora. Before he could even get close, I grabbed his arm, yanked backwards, and tossed him backwards. He landed with a massive crash on the other side of the room in a daze. It didn't last long enough to take advantage of, however. It was clear to see that he was enraged. He charges at me this time, and before I know it, he talked me to the ground, trying to rip open my chest. I threw him off, before rolling to my feet. He charged again, and this time, I was ready. I grabbed him by the head, and threw him across the room once again. I wasn't going to waste the moment. He just tried to kill Tora, and he was going down. He launched another blast of fire. I barely felt the heat and called on my own fire, unleashing a wave of golden fire. He didn't even stumble, and charged at me. This time, I meet the charge head on. My claws ripped into his flesh, cutting like knifes, and igniting him with fire from the inside. Even with fire ripping him from the inside out, he still wouldn't go down. But this time he was staggered, and was feeling the effects of the blow. I charged in for one final blow, claws ripping into his stomach, before pulling straight up, practically ripping him in half. It was over. The school's greatest weapon was dead. The tide was in our favor, but once we got the Flock out of their cages. We knew it was time for rest and relaxation.
(A few weeks later)
(Epilogue)
Total and Akila had finally had their wedding. Then again it was probably the weirdest thing that has ever happened to a priest. But for both the Flight and the Flock, it was time to sit back and get some rest. You never know when the world needs saving, so we needed to be well rested for our next adventure, whenever it may be. Most of the rest of the night was spent dancing, eating cake, more dancing, and then even more cake. Then again as I felt my pocket I still needed to do one last thing to do. So I did one thing that I've been practicing for the past week or so. I got down on one knee, before opening a small ring box.
"Tora, will you marry me?" I ask. Suddenly I was flying through the air as Tora tackle hugged me.
"YES" She screamed at the top of her lungs. I pulled her into my arms and held her tight. Things where finally looking up.
Authors Note: Well that's a wrap. This story took much longer than it should have, and it isn't as good as I wanted it to be. I still have my poll up and the story in the lead it Hero's of Truecraft: Darkest Shadow's, at two votes. I might write a squeal to this story as I originally planned if I get some more support. Hopefully you will check on some other stories I'm going to start writing.
