An: Well now after chapter two I will try to make this chapter better. Hopefully you will think it is better. I don't own Soul Calibur 2
Mitsurugi's horse came to a halt in a marshy forest. The forest was a little foggy, damp and dark. "Where are we Mitsurugi?" asked Taki. "This is where the Lizard people live." Stated Mitsurugi. Taki took a few steps and began to clutch Celric harder. Taki had never felt so vulnerable before, it seemed that everything was closing in on her.
Suddenly Mitsurugi raised up his arms. "Do not harm us! We come in peace. We have word about Lizardman." Yelled Mitsurugi. Taki was amazed how did Mitsurugi know so much about this situation? The Lizard people emerged and surrounded them. Then what seemed to be an elder came out of the growing group. "What do you know of him?" asked the Elder. "This woman with me is Lizard man's mate!" yelled Mitsurugi. The crowd of Lizard people gasped. "We don't believe your lies!" barked the elder.
"Then believe this!" replied Mitsurugi as he held up Celric. The Elder took a long look at Celric. "This still is not enough proof." Stuttered the elder. Then Taki held up Lizardman's amulet. The elder stared at her for a long time. "The time is near." Whispered the elder. "What? What's going on?" asked Taki worried. "Follow me." Ordered the elder.
Taki and Mitsurugi followed the elder into a tent. "I knew that this day would come soon. I could feel I'd live to see it." Said the elder. "Cut to the point." Said Mitsurugi a bit annoyed. "Taki having Celric was no accident. It was pure destiny. It is written here in this book of prophecy. It says very clearly The western winds will stop. A woman and a Lizard will mate. The Lizard will be slain from someone not of this time. The female will bear the son, the son will grow up healthy and will fight alongside an impossible battle. The Lizards will fight alone against an army of new weapons, all of the lizards will be wiped out all but one. The child of the female will escape somehow and will mate with a human woman. Their child will show sign of his father, but many eras from now slowly his skin will sink back into the human race, his red scales."
There was silence for a moment. Then Mitsurugi spoke. "There is no way your people can win?' asked Mitsurugi knowing the answer. The elder simply shook his head no. There was even a longer pause. Taki gripped Celric tighter. "I will go, I will find armies to help us. They will join the battle against this menace from the future." Mitsurugi did not rest for a moment he immediately got on his horse and rode away.
"Taki you must give me the child. He must be raised to learn the way of his people." Said the elder. "I know. I understand, but I wish I did not sighed Taki as she kissed Celric and gave him to the elder. "I will watch from a distance as he grows, when the time is right I want to tell him where he came from." Exclaimed Taki. "He may not believe you." Warned the elder. "He will believe me." Taki then with her ninja sword broke the amulet in half. "Give him one half. I'll keep the other." Then Taki walked out of the tent an onto a mountain which overlooked the village.
AN: I know this chapter was short. I'll try to write another longer one before school starts for me.
