Youko-chan=onwards in the battle!

Kirma 21.

"Oh shit…" She muttered and Dante looked up to see a rather thick looking orc with a torch headed towards them. "Bombs." Dante screamed and shot the orc. Its arm and shoulder were blasted off as four arrows entered it's body but it pressed on.

"No!" Dante ignored Théoden's warnings and jumped down the high wall and landed on the torch holding orc.

"Not gonna happen." She said and fired a shot to its head. She then quickly ran over to the bombs and noticed they had a small opening and were filled to the brim with gun powder, or at least something extremely flammable. Dante grunted as she picked one of them up and hurried to grab the other, but when she turned, a huge crowd of orcs blocked her way.

"Get the fuck out of my way!" Dante screamed before dropping the bombs and making a bunch of furious hand signs and lifted her hand to her mouth. "Burn in hell." She hissed before blasting the orcs out of her way with a giant wave of fire. Quickly she grabbed the bombs and high-tailed it out of there and quickly tossed them into the air, the gun powder flinging around. She sent another blast of fire at the bombs and a huge explosion blasted another dent into the orc army.

Dante shrieked as a sharp pain erupted from her spine; she whipped around to see a nasty looking orc grinning as he grabbed onto her tail. "Get off of me you freak!" She snarled and shot his head off before freeing her tail. She then saw that the soldiers were having a large amount of trouble on the causeway trying to keep the orcs from wrecking the door.

She would have helped them but she was overcome by the sheer amount of orcs that began to attack her. Her blood boiled as her anger began to rise and she released a significant amount of her chakra and blasted them off but more came and replaced them.

"Dante!" She heard her name screamed and she could barely see the orcs blasting through the giant door. She could hear calls of retreat and screamed in frustration and began to attack her way through the orcs but they just kept coming. She fought frantically through the sea of monsters but she was grabbed by her tail and she shrieked in pain.

Dante finally saw an opening and drew her katana, Dante then began to hack the orcs down and she was able to leap out of the swarm of orcs onto the side of the wall. Using her claws she was able to haul her way up the giant wall though two arrows pierced her armor and sank into her shoulder and hip. Finally she reached the top and saw Aragorn and Gimli holding the orcs off and the king shouted at them to get out of there.

She drew out her ninja-wire and secured it to the wall and swung down to grab the two. "Hold on!" She shouted as she pushed chakra into her feet and began to run up the wall with the two men holding onto her with all of their strength.

They reached the top and rushed with the others in retreat into the keep. They barricaded the doors as the King professed his defeat. Dante pressed her ear to the cool stone, soothing her headache as the men discussed an escape route. Her blood lust had risen immensely and she knew it would not be long before she would lose her sanity. She snarled as Legolas ripped the thick arrows from her body. "The tips still in there." He stated. Dante looked back at him and a thought struck her.

"Do not follow me." She said before moving the barricades and opening the door and closing it behind her.

"Dante what are you doing?" Aragorn shouted through the wood.

"I'm going to release everything; my demon cannot be contained any longer." She said through the wood as she watched the orcs storm into the walls. "I will destroy every living thing out here and that will include you all if you step outside these doors."

"Dante, you cannot fight them all by yourself." Théoden shouted.

"Oh yes I can…you have yet to see my full strength." She snarled as she felt her anger rise and her demon fighting her restraints. "Stay in there if you want to live." She quickly made the hand signs and once again a stone slab rose from the floor to cover the door tightly. It did not completely block the smell of human flesh inside but it would have to do.

Dante grinned savagely as she walked out into the open and began to release her chakra and it steadily began to raise, her suppressors dissolving in her demonic energy that was beginning to be released.

Suddenly everything seemed to intensify, she could hear the heartbeats of the humans inside, she could smell the stench of each and every orc and it made her convulse at the smell. Dante felt her rationality slip away to madness and the feral demon burst through.

Her body began to fold as pain lased her body; her back began to shred as spindly things tore their way out of her body and finally burst through to reveal bloody white wings, scales encased the bones and thick membrane spread across them. Her horns began to push forward and painfully turn so that they were curved backwards and began to shrink to the point that they were much thinner than before but had a cruel twist to them making them seem more deadly. Her hair thickened and burst from their braids as golden streaks bled their way through the strands starting from her temples and extending to her roots so that she had two layers of colors.

Her claws lengthened and curved to a point and her tail thinned out but had more of a cat like look to it. Dante screamed as her eye-teeth fell out and new ones replaced them, these dripped with acidic poison and were much larger and they behaved and looked more like snake fangs. Dante's markings were now fully red and almost blended into her tan skin and looked more like war paint.

Her mind was now subjected to blood-lust as her body once again began to contort and change. This time her dragon form was a lot bigger.

Her size was larger than the balrog but only slightly smaller than the king dragon. Her legs had extended and she had wings once again each twice the size of her body. Her blood red eyes locked onto the now still orcs.

Dante threw back her head and let out a screaming roar that made the mountains shake and swooped down and the massacre began. Orc body parts began to fly into the air before being burnt and devoured, black blood began to stain the white stones as Dante continued to consume the enemy.

She was delighted to see that there seemed to be no end to the orcs and she happily continued to eat them despite their foul taste. If she scorched them enough their stench would be burnt away and they were more pleasant to wolf down.

The sun began to rise and Dante had yet to cease her attack but her body began to weaken after the sudden surge of power being returned and she felt so full that she thought she would burst. Her more sane part of mind began to surface and she felt sick at the bloated feeling she had but as her eyes scanned the area there was still quite a few orc divisions left.

Her energy was dropping fast so she began to move towards them when a familiar scent caught her attention and she looked to see Gandalf riding down the slope with an army behind him. Dante recognized Éomer at the lead beside the white wizard and they engulfed the army of orcs.

Dante let out a breath of relief and she turned to look at the stone enclosed door and using her tail she reached out and smashed the stone and the door blasted open and the lingering Fellowship and King Théoden exited with shocked faces.

They watched in awe at the giant dragon when movement caught their attention. They watched as the other humans attacked the orcs pushing them to retreat and they did so, towards a forest.

I don't remember a forest being there. Dante stated, her voice vibrating through the castle but felt her energy dissipate and she barely had enough time to de-transform before she collapsed unconscious.

The next thing Dante knew she was on her side, in a bed, clean and hungry. "How can I be hungry with all those orcs I ate?" She muttered as she crawled out of her bed. Her muscles groaned and she winced, rubbing them to release their tension but they held firm.

She limped over to the mirror and was shocked to see her true form for the first time in a little over a century. She looked at her wings and would have opened them if the room was larger.

Dante then realized the mess she had made during the battle and the impact it might have made on the humans. She groaned. "Now they're gonna fear me…again."
