Lust Jaw

We had gone to the mountains south of Laixland, and managed to get help from the Dragon that lived there. Her name is Lombardia, and she's willing to help us so she can finally be able to sleep and not fight. Thank the Guardians that I'm a very good debater, or we might have been killed.

Now, we're flying around on her back. We're nearing Boot Hill at the moment. I can't wait to see the look on Uncle Tesla and Aunt Shalte's faces when they see us show up with a Dragon. But as we fly over the Gob's Hideout, I get a strange feeling in the pit of my belly, as if a Guardian is close by.

*Virginia,* Raftina states, *I can feel the power of Luceid. She's in that house down below us. We've got to go there and find that statue, before it's too late for the world.*

"Everyone, Raftina is sending me a message. She can feel her fellow High Guardian, Luceid, down in the Gob's Hideout. We've got to land immediately, and search for it. Last time I was there, I found this ladder that I couldn't get to, because I was unable to jump that high. But with Jet's Radical Sneakers, I'm sure we'll be able to reach it. So let's go," I tell them, hoping they'll listen to me.

Gallows reminds the others, "The High Guardians are much stronger than the other ones, once they're awakened from their stone prisons. They can most likely sense the life-force of one of their own sisters and brothers much easier than regular ones. I say we follow where the leader says too."

So we landed Lombardia, and went inside. At the area where the floor was weak, Jet jumped to the higher area. Then, he began to pull us up one by one. First Clive, and then Gallows, with me going last. Most likely so the others wouldn't be able to see the blush that was covering his face.

We then climbed the ladder, and arrived into the attic. There, we found a pair of chests. And in one of them, we found the Wolf Idol. I could feel the power of the High Guardian Luceid in it. She was apparently trying to communicate with me, but was unable to due to her weakened state.

Then, we climbed down the stairs in the next room. There, we found another chest, as well as a lantern that needed lighting. I used my Tinder Crest on it, and the door opens up. The four of us leave the manor, and return to Lombardia. Deciding to postpone my homecoming, we head to the Fallen Sanctuary in order to reach out to the High Guardian Luceid, and petition for her aid in battle.

Once there, we head to the north east pillar, where I can sense the energy of Luceid. Like with Raftina's pillar, we have to use Jet's Radical Sneakers. We jump to the top, and hold up the statue. Suddenly, a purple and red werewolf appears. This must be the true form of the Guardian of Desire.

She attacks with her fangs and claws, as well as some strong magical powers. I can deal with the physical attacks, due to my powerful dodging abilities, but the magic is another thing. At least I've got a strong Magical Defense, and Gallows has already Extensioned his Protect spell for us all.

I watch as Jet uses his Gattling attack on the High Guardian of Desire. Luceid takes the full brunt of the attack. But she's not out yet, and she attacks back in a deadly fury. Jet is unable to dodge, and has fallen down on the floor of the Sanctuary. He's bleeding pretty badly as well.

I feel pain for his injuries. "Jet!!!! I'll help you!" On my next turn, I too use my Gattling Attack. She is injured, but still able to fight. But I am not the target. Luceid is apparently ignoring me for some reason, and going after Gallows and Clive. Soon, I'm the last member of our group standing.

*Shaman,* her voice echoes, *I've left you for last because I would like to see your true power. I know how you are unable to use your powers in front of other humans. But what if the only people who are able to see you use it are you and I? Can you use your magic then?*

I look around, until I am sure that the others won't see me. Luceid was patient with me, knowing how cautious that us Shamans are about revealing ourselves. Once I am convinced that Luceid's claims are true, I pull out my Crest Board with my Crest Graphs imbedded inside each square.

*I am ready for you, my lord. Feel the powers that flow through my veins. I will prove that I am worthy of the Adlehyde blood that is running through my veins,* I inform her.

Luceid says, *That is good. I would like to see the powers that Shamans have in this day and age. Especially with the loss of the royal gem, and the lack of a formal training program. I can see you desire nothing more than to prove yourself. Then do so by defeating me in combat.*

Stepping forward, I hold the board high above my head and think of which spell I should use. Then, it finally hits me which to use. "Saint." The beam of pure light hits the Guardian square in the stomach. She reels from the pain, and bows down in front of me.

*Very well, Shaman Princess,* she states, *You are brave and strong. The others will recover soon, and then I will join your mission. We must stop this evil before Filgaia is lost.*

I watch as Clive, Gallows, and Jet recover. They are all still feeling a bit tired, due to the wounds they've suffered. Knowing they need help, I grab out a Heal Berry. The first person I go to is Jet, although he seems to be the least hurt. Don't ask me why, I don't know myself.

Due to the location of his wounds, he's forced to take off his shirt for me to heal him. Dang, he's got nice muscles on him. As I spread the berry's juices on the wound, I begin to blush. But so is he, even as he is muttering about how annoying having to be in this situation is.

*Young Priest, you have a strong desire in your heart for freedom. I will bequeath you with the powers I have inside of me. We have little time to stop the returned demons,* she tells Gallows.

I watch as the Medium heads towards Gallows. He Invokes Luceid, and both Terra Roar and Lucky Hand turn to gold. Gallows then begins to tell us about the message that the Guardian of Desire sent to him through the Ark Scepter. No one is aware that I have heard her words too.

Sky's Corner

I knew she'd do this eventually. Teefa's incapacitated drooling of a shirtless Jet. She's always giving fanservice for the other girls.
