Chapter 16: And The Reaver Is The Key
Raziel and Kain arrived at the Sarafan Stronghold, over the years use and age had worn it down, and it held little of its former magnificence. But even if it had, Raziel would no longer feel welcome, for he knew the truth of what had happened in this foundation.
Raziel flew across the lake and imbued the Reaver in the light forge, then returned, and opened the large gates. Kain teleported in, and Raziel flew in, they ran down the corridors and halls. To Raziel and Kain's dislike, their were Demons waiting for them in the rooms instead of the Sarafan. They were still easily disposed of. The two warriors reached Mobieus's hall, it had bee millennia since his death. But once again, the time streaming chamber remained unchanged, the opened the crystal sealed door.
As they walked in, Raziel found that for some reason, the activation he used himself was no longer available. "Kain, I need you to set the time for the past," he said.
Kain's face showed satisfaction, as well as surprise. "So, you trust me now," he said, a wide smile on his face.
Raziel turned from him, and walked to the center of the time streaming chamber. "I suppose, yes," he said.
"Kain smiled, and turned to the controls, he pulled and pushed, how Kain learned to use this device, Raziel did not know. Kain finished the last switch, and dashed for the center of the chamber, as he arrived, they were both lifted into the air, they heard a pounding on the door, but it was distant, far away.
When they were lowered to the ground again, they opened the chamber, Raziel began walking out, but Kain stopped him. "This is in a time where Mobieus is still alive, we must be wary. At the utter of the name, rage boiled up inside Raziel, he removed Kain's hand from his shoulders, and walked to the door of the chamber, as soon as it opened, he saw a bright blue flash, Kain fell back dizzy, and leaned against a wall.
Raziel walked out, the Soul Reaver was incapacitated. Mobieus and Malek were waiting outside of the hall. Mobieus was grinning widely. "Have you returned, Raziel?"
"Silence, you foul demon, or I shall rip your tongue out before your soul," Raziel said.
Mobieus's expression went grim and angry. "So it finally happens, Kain's "coin" landed on its edge, I assure you, as the time guardian, that it makes no difference, my master is destined to kill you."
"You are a liar, Kain is not the cancer on this world, it is YOU!! You manipulate and destroy, all for pleasure because you have the power, and now, I have the chance to finally let myself loose upon you."
"I think not Raziel, Malek, he is the demon you are destined to kill, for the glory of the Sarafan, kill it now!!!" Mobieus ordered, Malek rushed forward.
"No Human, Hylden, or Demon can destroy me," Raziel grabbed Malek's spear, and removed it from his hands, he threw it away, and motioned for him to come. Malek grunted and ran forward. Raziel grabbed his shoulder guards and threw him into the air, and upside down, smashing hard against the wall where it appeared that Vorador was a demon, but was a savior.
Malek got back up, but as he got to his feet, Raziel had his hand deep in his chest, Malek, Guardian of the Pillar of Conflict, fell, and Raziel devoured his soul.
Raziel then looked to Mobieus, dumbfounded, and afraid. "Raziel, don't, I can aid you, please."
"Relax, you old snake, I know that killing you in this time causes too much change, but."
Raziel took the staff. He broke it on his knee, and swung the top half down as hard as he could, shattering the orb. The Reaver returned, now its normal form again, and Kain walked out.
"A wise choice, Raziel, killing Mobieus now, would destroy all hope for our race in the future," Kain said.
Raziel kicked the old man, and threw him across the room, they walked out, Raziel now totally satisfied. They left the Stronghold, and headed North, along the path.
It wasn't long, until they reached the Pillars of Nosgoth. Beautiful, untouched. They walked up, each took a separate stairway, and they met in the center.
"This is the sublime moment, in moments, you shall receive the object that will save Nosgoth, go now," Kain said.
Raziel nodded, he looked up, and beat his wings.
Author's Note: It's finally going to happen, I wonder if this will be the end when the 3rd Soul Reaver comes out. Sorry about the cliffhanger. Please Review!!!!!!!!!!!
