Silver Blade

By, TigerWolf

~ Chapter Eight ~

~ She turned back expecting to see Dilandau or a Slayer. But no, it was - "Oh crap." Silver muttered. ~

Don't tell me I'm seeing things now. I cant be, but. Silver thought. Behind her stood a white horse with gray spots covering the horses body. A elaborate bit was in the horses mouth colored a deep maroon with white feathers and beads sticking out her and there. A deep maroon saddle blanket with beads and white feathers laid on its back with a woman sitting on top. The women was clad in a dress of light brown skins, with a maroon slash tied around her waist. She wore moccasins on her feet and a elaborate necklace of feathers and beads and two teeth around her neck. Across her back was a quiver of arrows and a bow, even thou she could only see a part of the bow it was deeply elaborate in a pure white color and the string on the bow shined like gold. Her dark black hair was back in two neat braids that reached her waist and at the end of the braids was a maroon colored cloth lined with a small white feather to tie them off. On top of her head was a maroon head band with a symbol in the meddle of a bird, and on her ears here earrings of a singe white feather with three beads. And her face had two lines of dark red and black across her cheeks. The women did not appear young nor old but full of wisdom and like a goddess because of how the white feathers contrasted with her dark skin, and how her deep brown eyes seamed to shine.

Silver turned her horse to face the woman better. "Shianne? Is that you." Silver said.

"Yes Silver Blade, it is I." Shianne replied, but her voice sounded different it seamed to chime like music and then echo slightly. "But the Shianne you remember is not the true Shianne, I am Shianne the Goddess of Sprites and Weapons, and I am here to worn you. The weapon that you carry I have made, and the reason behind it is great. Long ago it has been prophesied that you will end it all.

The day when a girl from another world comes,
Is the start of the days to the end.
This Girl from another world can either end all dark or end all light.
Inside of she lies Argentum the Goddess of War,
And on her arm will be a dragons soul and its knight.

At the temple that serves is where the final battle will be drown,
True colors of enemies will be shown,
And the one how is was forced to spend all entreaty on the mortal realm will come forth,
The Man trapped in mortal time and unforgivable entreaty,
Shale bring destruction and chaos upon the world.
Centuries of waiting and defeat,
Will not waver his vengeance upon the heavens.

In the light the dark shale plague,
Neither Dark nor Light shale stop this plague.
The Dragons power is all that stands in the way of oblivion.
The Dragon that will not fall.

One Blade will stand in the dark,
One Star that shines in the dark.
Is the one how will end it all."

"Silver Blade, your quest has begun, and it is the one of a worrier. Do not fail for is you do everything will be taken. Your decision on what you do when the time comes is the decision you make for Gaea. My the Spirits be with you." Shianne said then she turned her horse and walked away. Silver looked down at the Drag-Blade upon her arm and looked back up to find Shianne gone in the mist.

Silver brought the Drag-Blade up in front of her and looked deep into the blood red gem. She was trying to take in everything that she just herd. She wanted answers earlier, and now her got a lot of them. Unbelievable ones, yes, but something made her except them as the truth. This Gem she cared was made by Shianne, a Goddess, and some how inside of her was the Goddess of War. And by her entering this world she basically started the count down to the possible end of it, an apocalypse, and what really got to her was no matter what it would happen an end of dark or of light. The choice of which it was in her hands, it was her duty to choice and to fight. But who was she to fight, a man trapped in mortal time for entirety? Who was that a shunned God? A demon? Who or what could it be?

No Use thinking about it now, time will tell. Now the question is where the hell should I go? I say Zaibach, they know something about my destiny. They know a lot, by what I can tell. I swear I'm a fucking idiot, going back to them, might as well sign a death certificate for me! But then I don't think they will kill me. Silvers thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a branch cracking behind her and the sound of hoofs again. She looked back to find a very pissed off looking Dilandau. "Oh, shit." Silver muttered.

"Well, well, well, look what I found. You are not to smart now are you, letting me catch up with you so easily. You should know, me finding you would never be a good thing. But then again, your lack of thinking dose ruin the hunt for me though. Here I thought I would have a good hunt with finding my Dragon, but no, you spoiled it." Dilandau said with the most devilish grin. Silver looked at her with pure hate, she was about to kick Blaze into a full run when Dilandau spoke again. "I don't think so. Slayers!" All around Silver a Dragonslayer stepped out of the forest blocking all ways of escape. "Get her!"

Silver tried to escape, but even she new it was hopeless, she was out numbered, surrounded, and trapped. Three Slayers grabbed the rains of her horse, Blaze went up on his hind legs and tried to kick the Slayers away, but the sear numbers of Slayers prevented him from doing so for long, as he was forced on all fours. Silver found hands pulling her off Blazes back. She fought, but there were to many hands. A punch was sent to her stomach which knocked the wind out of her. She was brought to the ground on her knees, two slayers each holding one of her arms in a painful grip healed her down. Silver started to laugh. She looked up at Dilandau will a look of insanity and said through her laughter. "So the mighty Dilandau cant even capture a mere girl without the help of others. Weak."

Dilandau came up to her and bent down to her eye level. "Weak, I don't think so. Smart is what I call it. This way it makes a clean capture with no mess ups. And have we not talked about this respect issue we seam to be having?" Dilandau said her. Dilandau punched her across the face. "Its Dilandau-sama, to you." He said by another punch across her face. "Humm, the crime of escape is great, you know that Silver? In most cases Death. I think we might have to teach you a lesson." That remark was followed by another hit to her stomach.

The pain in Silver was biting at her with no remorse. Breathing was found hard and keeping her eyes open hurt, but sure pride kept her from yelling out. As more hits were dealt on her, her body started to beg for it to stop. Dilandau's words were lost in her pain for all she would hear was a loud pulse in her head, of has that a headache? She started to hear his words again. "Do you want me to stop, if you say you do , I will." Dilandaus words came out tauntingly to her.

Silver body spoke for her not her mind otherwise different words would have came out of her mouth. "D-Dilan-dau st-op,---- please." Silver stuttered out.

"Maybe your not as strong as I thought. I'll stop but you did not say it right." Dilandau spat back followed by a hit to somewhere on her body, for she could not tell.

Silvers pride and control over her body hung on for while by refusing what he wanted her to say. But only after so much could her pride stay intact. "Stop, Dilan-dau ----- sa-ma." she said as she passed out in the arms that held her up.

Dilandau looked down on the beaten girl in front of him with a smug look on his face. Now we will see if your pride is as strong as your body, once you wake we will see. "Bring her back, and that horse too." Dilandau barked at the two soldiers that held her.

Ok people I felt bad about the last short chapter, and since I was home sick today hears another chap. (Happy? I hope you are.) Well I see that one person was wondering when things will make since, and for that I have to say it will in time. I let a bit more out in this chap. but a big part of this story is mystery, I want you people to wonder about what is to come, what the reason of this and that was, because that way you stay interested. (( I hope )) But I do thank the one person for speaking up, for if it is that confusing I would like to know, so thank you.
