Chapter #15: Bad Night
*~*~*Pixie's Dream--Reader's POV*~*~*
A face flashes before her eyes. She tries to hold on to it, but can't. Her long black claws go right through the fuzzy image.
Trying to use her senses, the image becomes clearer. It materializes to a brown haired, blue eyed boy wearing a black shirt with a white collar around it.
[Who is that?] Her memory failed her completely. It was at the tip of her tongue but it didn't make its way to her mouth. [Dammit]
Then, to the right of the unnamed boy, stood Lord of Dragons. [Oh my God! They're the same person! But how?]
Suddenly, everything in her line of vision blurred out. The background turned from a black to a yellowish-orange. The light began to sting her eyes as she regretfully opened them.
[What was his name...Se.....iba...?] Her thoughts, uncompleted and forgotten, fuzzed out as she awoke to a powerful fire.
*~*~*In the Cave--Reader's POV*~*~*
"Hey! Pixie! You're awake!" A whispered voice rang in Pixie's ears.
"Huh?" She mumbled. There stood Elf with a bowl of water in her hands. "Here, drink some." Elf said. "Can you get up?"
"Mmmph."
"Guess not. Well, when you feel strong enough to move, you can take some of the water, okay?" Getting no response from the monster, Elf sighed and went against the nearby wall, where Commander and Swordsman were currently napping, and sat between them.
Pixie's eyes fluttered to see that mostly everyone was sleeping, to the exception of Red Magician, who was missing, and Elf, who just sat down. She heard the rain pounding behind her and wished her ears weren't so sensitive.
That's when she felt something on top of her. It was light and soft. She found the strength to sit up and looked at the material. It was a blue cape, Lord's blue cape.
[HE gave ME HIS cape?] She thought. Noticing that Lord and Landstar were a bit chilly, she stood up, walked over to them and placed the cape over them both without stirring either. She smiled.
As she returned to the fire, Red Magician looked on and grinned. [It's the good thing that some of us are getting along.] He thought as his gaze redirected to the storm outside. Lightning struck the ground hard, and he too jumped a bit.
[Why am I so scared?] He wondered. [That was just a freak act of nature. If you're going to stay up all night, might as well face it like a man.] He couldn't sleep because of the sudden vision he had when he rested for that brief period of time when they first entered the cave.
*~*Flashback*~*
Grey haze surrounded him at all sides. In the centre was a bright light. He ran towards it as quick as his legs would carry him. Around him, pictures of people who he couldn't recognize began to take up space. He pushed himself until the bright light was close. But, the light was an actual pyramid of light; with an odd eye shape in the middle.
[What can it all mean?!] His mind shouted furiously at him as the flashback subsided. He tried to remember the faces he saw, but those too were gone.
He growled in frustration.
"Hey, Red? You okay?" A voice said from behind him.
"Pixie? You shouldn't be standing. You need to get your rest and heat back in your body!" He said as he turned around to face her. Her skin turned back into a nice peach colour, and her eyes were bright and alive.
"I asked you something first. What's bugging you?" She asked again.
"Nothing. I can't sleep that's all. I just volunteered for watch duty. Now, go back to sleep." Red Magician replied, turning back to the storm.
Pixie looked at him, with a watchful eye. All was silent until Red Magician spoke again. "Go to sleep Pixie. Now!"
A bit startled, she returned to her position in front of the fire. Just as she was about to close her wings around her, a voice called from beside her,
"You keep it."
An out-stretched hand held a blue cape. Lord stood there patiently for her to take it.
"It's okay, I'm better." Pixie replied staring at him. Lord sat down beside her.
"Good. I didn't want to carry you--the dead weight that you were--any further than this." He replied coldly.
"Excuse me?!" Pixie practically screamed. Realizing that others were sleeping, she replied quieter, "Don't mess with me Lord! You'll live to regret it!"
Thunder and lightning clashed in the background as Lord smirked and went back to Landstar's spot and sat down again.
[Jerk] Pixie thought.
*~*~*Morning--Reader's POV*~*~*
The sun peeked through the clouds. The last of the fire burnt out and was nothing more than a stream of smoke.
"Rise and shine everyone!" Pixie called. "Time to get up!" No one awoke. "Screw this." She turned on her heel and when to the mouth of the cave. Red Magician had finally fallen asleep, but it wasn't too long ago.
[Poor guy....] She thought.
"Hey! Pixie!" A whisper came into earshot behind her.
"Hey Magician Girl. Up already?" Pixie smiled.
"Yeah. Those stone walls are REALLY uncomfortable."
Pixie laughed. "Wanna help me gather some fruit for some food?"
"That is IF we FIND any fruit." The girls laughed and went in search for some food.
"HEY! OVER HERE!" Magician Girl cried.
"What?" Pixie asked as she flew in.
"Check this out." It was a pair of square cubes--one blue and one red.
"What? Why are there cubes in the forest?!" Pixie asked.
"I dunno. But they probably have some sort of purpose....." Magician Girl said, examining them from all sides. One side had six black dots, another five, then four, then three, then two, and then the last side had a single dot.
"Well, let's go back to the others and tell them what we found. After all, I already found a handful of berries." Pixie said, showing off her bundle of berries.
"Yeah, me too." Magician Girl stood, and picking up both of the cubes, she followed Pixie back into the cave.
Instead of being welcomed with 'Hello', Red Magician and Lord shouted, "WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU TWO?!"
"Getting breakfast, and your welcome." Pixie said, shoving her bunch of berries at Red Magician.
"AND, we also found these!" Magician Girl held up the two cubes.
[I know those things!] Swordsman thought. [But what do they do?! Ah shit!] "Those things look familiar!" He said at last.
"Really? Care to enlighten us on what they do?" Pixie asked.
"Don't know what they do, they just look familiar."
"Well, let's pack them up when we leave....." Commander said. "But first...about those berries....."
*~*~*In the forest--Reader's POV*~*~*
"Listen here Petit Moth," Storm Sister began to say "If you lead me in the wrong direction, I won't be afraid to destroy you."
"D-D-Don't worry!" The little bug cried. "You have my word."
[Oh, I better have it. Or else....] She thought. Suddenly, Petit Moth stopped. "Are we there?"
"No--"
"--Then why did we stop?" She interrupted.
"Please, come here." Petit Moth motioned her towards him.
"What?"
"Take out the red dot."
"The what?"
"Here, on my forehead, TAKE IT OFF!" Storm Sister bent over and picked at the now-noticeable glowing red dot.
"Why?"
"So they won't hear us! PLEASE HURRY!"
Just as she ripped the dot from his forehead, a long arrow pierced through him. There, standing behind him was a grotesque looking angel; with a large eye on her shoulder and with bat & angel wings. In her hands was a Silver Bow and Arrow. Storm Sister then recognized her as Doma the Angel of Silence.
"Traitors cannot be tolerated." She said as she lowered the bow and arrow. "Do you wish to seek for the one who is following you?"
"Yes."
"Then follow me." Doma stood and stared at Storm Sister.
"I cannot."
"Why not?" But instead of answering, Storm Sister raised her staff and prepared to attack.
"Because I don't trust you. ATOM CHARGER!" The ball from within exploded and blew a hole right through Doma. [Wow, I'm getting pretty used to using my power!] She thought as she looked at her staff again.
Then suddenly, the ground underneath her shattered, leaving her in a deep pit. Then, Earl of Demises, Armoured Zombies and some Grand Tiki Elders hover in front of her.
And that was the last thing she saw.
*~*~*In the Cave--Reader's POV*~*~*
"All ready to go?" Lord asked impatiently.
Landstar hurried to Lord's side and so did Commander. Swordsman, however, was still shoving berries into his mouth.
"Swordsman! That's disgusting! At least close your mouth and chew!" Lord scolded.
"Who are you, my mom?"
"No, but I might as well be....after all, it seems SHE didn't do a good job teaching you manners!"
Swordsman stood up. "HEY! No body and I mean NO BODY goes around dissin' MY mom!"
Just as both of them were going to fight,
"BOTH OF YOU STOP IT RIGHT NOW!" Angel shouted. "You're acting like children! Idiotic children! Apologize to him, Lord." When no 'I'm sorry' escaped through Lord's lips, she added. "NOW!!"
"I'm sorry." He mumbled quickly.
"Good! Now, can we please move on now?!" Angel led the others out of the cave.
"That good for nothing Lord of Dragons....thinks he's all hot..." Swordsman muttered.
"Don't worry Swordsman; I'm sure he didn't mean it." Elf chirped, coming beside him. "Just let bygones be bygones, and don't let him get to you."
"Ya know Elf? You're right." Swordsman looked to her "I don't need to take that from that low-life. I'll just ignore him."
"Thatta boy!" Harpy smiled.
"So, Magician Girl, you and Pixie just found these in the forest?" Purple Magician asked.
"Yup. Do you have a clue to what they mean?"
Purple Magician went quiet for a few minutes. [Graceful Dice.....Skull Dice....Huh? Where did those names come from?!?]
"Graceful Dice and Skull Dice." He repeated silently.
"What?" Magician Girl asked. "You mean these things are dice? What do they do?"
Red Magician, who was so quiet, spoke up. "They multiply your power by the number shown. The other decreases your opponents power by the number shown."
Blank stares looked on the spiky-haired magician. "How did you know that?" They all asked at once.
He, once again, stayed silent. [If I knew, I would tell you.] When he was sleeping, he had another dream of two dice being played by a blonde-haired boy who looked very much like Swordsman. He watched as the two dice rolled and how one made the boy's monster more powerful, and how the other made the opponent's monster weaker.
The monster in the boy's possession was Landstar......except different.
[ARG!] He didn't know where these things were coming from and it was driving him nuts.
"Hey Red...." Pixie said as she came up beside him. "You okay?"
"I hope."
"GUYS! I think I see the Dark One's hide-out!" Magician Girl claimed as she came back down from her previous quick flight.
"It can't be long now......" Commander said as he clutched his gun.
*~*~*Reader's POV*~*~*
[Where am I?] She thought. The last thing she could remember was that she killed Doma the Angel of Silence and then she fell.
It was then she realized that she was a steel cage with sharp gold spikes shooting out of the metal on the outside.
This scene was all too familiar....But where had it come from?
"Welcome home my precious sister......" An echo bounced off the walls. But no face was given to see the identity.
Storm Sister knew all too well whose voice that was.
"Dieen......" She hissed.
*~*
WOAH! Cliffe-galore! Teehee....It seems that their memories are coming back slightly....Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun!!!!!
Sorry for the long up-date......and I have decided for the ending..... : ) so happy! But it will be a sad/happy ending with a possible character death....*key word, POSSIBLE*
So, off to write the next one!
