AN: I actually wrote another chapter. Incredible. Anyway disclaimer is on the first 2 chapters, I might not have any pairings in this fic, If you want a certain pairing in this fic then tell me and I will take it in consideration. I have some original characters in this fic, they are mine, I copy no one, not in characters or plot, so if my fics are like anybody else's then its purely coincidence.

On to the fic.

~~~~~##*##*##@##*##*##~~~~~

The beasts formed a circle round a black marble table. The table was centuries old, symbols and pictures beautifully carved all over. It was beautiful, though a dark shadow seemed to hang over it. The shadows shifted and the beasts disappeared.

In place of the beasts stood five tall figures. A woman, seemingly ageless stepped closer to the marble table. Her black hair was closely cropped and spiked. She was squarely built, well muscled and squire jawed. Yellow eyes glowed and a scar ran across her right cheek. She wore simple black cotton pants, black leather boots and gloves. She also wore a long sleeved black shirt, a think black belt with a silver buckle decorated with runes and a long black cloak. Intimidating she stepped forwards cradling a seemingly ordinary black stone in her hands. The stone wasn't very big, slightly bigger than a fist. In a deep voice the woman called out.

"Five hath come yet were we not six? Where hath our brother gone? He should be here, yet he is not. Be this because of treachery or hath he forgotten his duties?"

Her words were met with silence. None of the figures had even moved. Perhaps they did not even hear her words.

"None of you speak for him? He hath not forgotten his duties, no he have succumbed to the darkness of anger and greed." She hissed out. "Treachery!"

"He will destroy in madness. The mortals will fall to him, their cries tearing at the sky. He must be stopped! Yet our time here has come, we must return to the shadow lands of our birth. Only one must stay. The one shall live as a mortal, be born and die till our brother has been stopped, either by his will or by his death. Which one of you shall it be?"

For a moment no one moved when silently a figure broke from the circle and stepped forward. The woman stared at the figure and gave a slight nod, her face grim.

"Much depends on you. You shall forget us in your quest as a mortal. Yet do not despair for our brother, in his decision to stay and rule earth have become mortal aswell. You shall meet in battle many times yet the last battle shall not be for centuries. Only when you have defeated our brother shall you return to your Empire in the Shadow lands. If you are defeated then our brother shall inherit your power and Empire, and I fear he shall rule over the earth with terror, and we shall be powerless to stop it."

The woman carefully put the stone in the middle of the stone table. Her chanting filled the air, thickening, twisting and moulding the air. The runes on the table started to glow an eerie green, and lit up the stone in it's center. The stone glowed becoming clear as a diamond yet green with the power it received. From the stone another beam of light reached to the heavens before it opened as doors to a portal.

The three figures, which had yet to move, floated silently past the fifth figure towards the portal. Before they passed the fifth figure they each nodded in a form of a salute before dissapearing between the doors. The fourth figure, the woman went last, but not before studying the Fifth figure intently. "Gargisha norga gearligh dornagh" (Forget what you must)

The woman nodded satisfied and entered the portal. The portal closed adruptly behind her. The stone glowed more brightly, seeming to light up the mountains, before it shattered. With the stone the sides of the table broke off into six pieces, each piece containing a part of a chantment. There was a blast as five of the pieces shot out into the world. A scream tore through the sky as the figure was torn and changed. The figure dissapeared in a last scream of pain.

At that moment a child was born, it's screams and wails carrying through the bedroom as the child took it's first breath in the new world.
