An Endless War!
Crack! The sound of a twig being snapped awakened the young girl sleeping in the nearby tree. Eyes opening slowly the young girl forgot that she had been asleep in a tree and sat up stretching almost succeeding in falling off of the tree she had been residing in for the night. The snapping of twigs below alerted the girl and she quickly moved farther into the branch to keep from being seen by whatever was down there. She moved cautiously around the branch hoping to get a view of whatever was moving noisly around the area.
She managed to move a bit of the leaves aside and took a peek around but didn't see anything. She decided to stay still for a while in case whatever was down there had sensed her and was lying in wait for her. She tried again this time her eyes moving carefully taking in everything around her, when she suddenly heard another twig snap and this time it came from under the tree she was in. She held her breath before deciding to take a little look and make sure it wasn't something that she couldn't handle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A deep growl escaped the hidden beast as it lay in wait for it's next victim to walk by so it could strike and feast on it's victim's body. It sensed a prey nearby but wasn't sure where it was exactly, what sounded like snort drifted from the beast's nose. The hidden being was thinking to itsself about how it's almost nonexistent race had become extremely intelligent and almost extinct. Suddenly a noise sounded in the tree next to where the hidden beast lay it sounded like someone moving around, silver eyes moved up towards the tree sensing something hidden between the branches. He smelled psyenergy, must be an adept but from what he smelled a special adept at that. He lay in wait quietly so not to scare whoever it was in the tree, if his sense were correct then he couldn't eat the adept because they might be one of the legendery heroes his master had told him about. Besides to him humans didn't taste as good as some of the stray monsters around the land.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As she peeked out of the leaves she was surprised not find anything down there even though she had heard movement below. She shrugged and decided to get a move on she couldn't wait any longer she still wanted to go back to the battlefield and say goodbye to her father, maybe even bury him and some of the other warriors. She took one last look around and made sure the path was clear. She jumped out of the tree and decided to go back to the battlefield knowing that Babi wouldn't still be there unless he was really stupid and besides *he's probably gone back to his secret lab to plan his world domination*. She almost laughed but turned sober again when she realised that It was probably true. As she walked farther down the path she didn't see the silver-blue orbs watching her go.
She had been walking for a total of at least 10 hours or that's what it at least felt like to her but she didn't really know considering she didn't have a watch with her. She was getting hungry and thirsty considering what little water she had left. The scenery around her began to look very familiar as realised she was gettinf nearer and nearer to the battlefield, her pace quikened but her heart slowed with a feeling of dread, worried that Babi might actually still be there waiting for her to come back. She sight sadly as she wished that this stupid battle hadn't began in the first place, I mean what's so special about Luna and Sol I know they're goddesses and hold a special power dealing with the elemental stars and alchemy but what powers do they hold?. No one really knows since no one had dared to try and unearth the goddesses' mysterious powers because her grandfather and his soldiers protected the entrance like it was the apocalypse itsself.
She had been in deep thought over the Luna/Sol problem and hadn't realised that she was standing about 5 feet away from the battlefield. She stopped in her tracks and held her breath as she looked around her stomach tightning at everything she saw before her, yesterday's events came back rushing at her like a train speeding out of control she remembered and began to cry, shedding tears for the courageous warriors that died in this battle. Just as she had remembered it there was blood everywhere most of the soldiers had probably bled to death considering how much blood was splattered around staining the grass and leaving a scar of death lingering behind.
She dried her eyes slowly and walked through the battlefield like a zombie in a trance heading for the spot where she'd seen her father fighting Babi. As she approached she saw her father's body lying on the ground where amazingly there was no blood at all it was kinda weird. She slowly porceeded towards her father's body and knelt down besides him and looked at him with love in her eyes. He looked like an angel sleeping peacefully lying there, you'd almost think he died a happy man. She there was something wrong because her father's body didn't have any marks on it not even a little cut or anything. She guesssed he was dead alright because she checked his pulse to make sure but other than that there wasn't a single wound on him anywhere, but what was also queer was the grass he was lying on didn't have a single drop of blood on it anywhere.
Suddenly out of knowhere a bright blue aura began to shine above her father's body. She stared with awe at the beauty of the light transforming itsseelf into a being. She was overcome with the feeling of peace and warmth as the light continued to shine finally enveloping her and her father's body. The light became so intense that she had to shield her eyes from the brightness. Finally it receeded and as she looked up she gasped with amazement at the being floating above her. There floating above her father's body was a young woman with silver hair and lavender eyes smiling down at her. She was wearing a white dress which made her look like a goddess. She opened her mouth and spoke to her;
"Do not grieve over your father dear child for he is in a better place and I'm sure his death will be avenged young one."
"Who… Who are you" The young girl stammered.
"I am Luna the goddess of the moon. I came down here to tell you about your quest in which you and your friends shall find your destiny in stopping Babi from taking over this world."
"What do you mean quest?"
"Each person has a path to follow in which they shall embrace their destiny and create their future. You young one are a chosen one you are one of the few who bears the ancient power of Luna and Sol inside of you. Like you there others as well but there is also your friends who like you also bear the sacred powers of Luna and Sol and only you few can control that power once it has been unleashed. Listen carefully my child for Babi is not going to stop trying to take the power of Luna and Sol into his hands and creating his own imaginary world. He will slaughter and kill anyone who stands in his way that is where the legendary descendents of Me and my sister Sol shall stand together and fight for the planet. Heed my words child follow your destiny young one and stop Babi from obtaining his evil wish." She started to fade away slowly emitting 5 last words before disappearing completely.
"Embrace your destiny my young daughter."
The girl tried to move but found she couldn't so she shouted instead.
"Wait please… you didn't tell me who I had to find…! " She sighed sadly and stood up. She had finally met the legendary goddess Luna she was happy but she couldn't celebrate yet no not till she defeated Babi and stopped him from completing his wish. She looked around and found some more people she recognized and set to work on burying them so she could finish and be on her way back to Imil. Hopefully the girls would understand that their parents were gone and would agree to go with her since they only had each other to rely on now no one but each other. They weren't sister by blood but they had been born on the same day and had been best friends since nothing would change for the rest of their lives. They were and will stay sisters they will depend on each other for everything now that their parents were gone. Even before they had been born their parents, grand parents , even all the way back to their great-great-grandparents had been best friends which is pretty cool.
"Phew! I'm finally finished." She took a deep breath and looked around the battlefield, proud of herself for burying all of the soldiers she didn't know how long it had taken her but it was worth because now all of these warriors could finally rest in eternal peace. She sighed and stretched out after the grueling time she had spent on the ground digging and burying everyone had taken awhile and she was getting drowsy. But she couldn't sleep because she was out in the open she would be an easy prey for a goblin or a chimera mage those things scared the creeps out of her. She got up and stretched her legs since they had fallen asleep on the job. She looked up towards the sky and noticed the sun getting a little bit darker so she got ready to leavenot wanting to stay In case Babi decided to come back and wait for her. She walked back not the way she had come fro but the opposite way heading towards Imil hoping there she'd find the girls and tell them what had happened.
She walked in deep thought until she noticed the ground here had gotten a bit bumpy and not only that but there were trees as well. She remembered when she'd come on the wagon she'd hit her head on the roof because the road had been bumpy. She got excited and kept walking knowing she was getting closer to her destination. As she walked she heard the forest around her coming to life, birds were flying around while some were singing. Around her scurried squirrls and rabbits heading for home to stash their food that they had between their tiny hands. She heard a stream running by and began to run the last couple of feet from her hometown because she had recognized where she was.
What awaited her in Imil was something that shocked her to no end. She froze as she stared with terror at the scene unfolding before her eyes. The town lay in ashes with small fires everywhere, the ground was scorched with burn marks while the houses everywhere were burning down as she looked around. She took a couple of steps forward stumbled and fell where she lay crying her eyes out. First her parents and all of their friends now her hometown lay in ruins as well. Everything was burning to the ground as I speak. There was no sound of life anywhere neither was there any idea what had caused the fires.
"Babi" was the one word uttered out of her mouth as she lay in the ground covered in her tears. He had done this he knew where she lived and had done this to torture her farther. It wasn't enough for him killing of her parents and their friends but ambushing the town and destroying while searching for the powers of Luna and Sol. A feeling of dread came over her aqs she realised what was wrong, The girls!
"Oh no. The girls are gone" She realised that the girls were gone and knew what had happened to them. Babi after destroying the town and had probably imprisoned the citizens had probably found the girls and known who they were. He must have taken them prisoners. What could she do now? She had no clue how she was going to rescue the girls. Something glinted in the sunlight to her left and she turned to look. It was a knife and caught between the blade was a piece of paper. The note said;
My dear girl if you're reading this note then you must've guessed what happened.
I am sorry to say it had to come to this but what can I say I will not stop until I get what I want.
I know I have something dear to you. Your friends I might add a re a bit fiesty and very brave girls.
Now let's get down to business if you want to see your friends again then you may come and take them.
But on one condition your loyalty for their freedom.
Have fun making a decision oh and you have 24 hours to make your exchange.
For the exchange meet me at the battlefield on the 24th.
She crumbled the piece of paper in her hand and swore. Today was the 23rd she had 24 hours to make the exchange or else she knew he'd porbably kill the girls if she didn't do as he said. She was so busy thinking that she didn't notice that she wasn't completely alone. She whirled around and found herself staring into the face of one hungry Fenrir. The beast didn't look extremely friendly and it looked very strong, she didn't think she would be able to finish it off on her own because she didn't have any weapons with her. She jumped back suddenly as the fenrir suddenly growled deeply and jumped with a paw out striking at her. She barly dodged out of the way before moving to the side and casting glacier at the beast. The ice missils struck the beast hard and it howled in pain but didn't look the least bit worn out.
She sideswept the dangerous claw and cast glacier again. This time the fenrir was a bit smarter and dodged the attack with ease. Suddenly it opened it's mouth and unleashed fire blessing (a/n: sorry if I got the fenrir's attacks wrong but I'm abit rusty on the animal's attacks!) This time she wasn't able to avoid the attack completely and ended up having her right arm scorched a bit. She winced in pain and cast glacier again, the fenrir managed to dodge most of the attack but was still standing. She moved back a couple of steps and cast ply. Some of her strength was back but she was losing psyenergy rapidly since glacier took a lot out of her psyenergy. The fenrir opened it's mouth and unleashed fire blessing again. This time she was able to dodge the attack completely and retaliated quickly by summoning glacier again. The fenrir wasn't able to dodge the attack completely and went down howling. She stood there breathing rapidly and slowly wandered over to the dead beast and gave it a good kick just to make sure it was dead. Just as she moved forward she heard another growl and this time it was from the side. She turned around and her fears were confirmed it was another fenrir and this one was even bigger and more meaner than the first one.
The girl's shoulders slumped as she sighed slowly knowing that the only way she was getting out of this fight in one piece was if a miracle happened. The fenrir growled and lunged forward as she barly dodged its deadly claws. She turned around but didn't turn in time and cried out as she felt the searing pain of the beast's claws rip through her back cutting through it like a sword. She fell down onto the ground and tried to look around but her image was becoming blurry. The last thing she saw before blackness consumed her was the smiling face of the fenrir as it stared down at it's almost dead prey.
YAY! Ch. 2 finished…. Sorry for the delay every1! ^_^ I was caught up in this online rpg game called darkages and yesterday I finally reached the top of the venus lighthouse and had an all out war with Saturos and Menardi over Sheba. Fortunatly I beat'em but by the time they had fused into the fusion dragon I'd run out of all of my beings and only had 3 left. Sadly enough I lost! *sighs sadly and begins crying* Anyway like I said above this is an A/U I'll say it again. The whole Felix and Sol Sanctum episode where Isaac, Garet, and Jenna go into Sol Sanctum never happened and neither did the journey for the elemental stars. That will happen after the story. ALSO! Jenna isn't Felix's sister in here. I'm sure you'l enjoy it though! Anyway more on that later. Here's what I want you to do go down there and push that purple button that say review! You know you want to….. ^_^! Please! R+R and make me feel loved!…… later all
Next chap… Descendents of Luna! Friends?… or foes?
