You guys can't possibly expect me to update like I did in the beginning are you? Because that would be insane! I was doing that on my days off from school! Now that I'm going back to school full time, limited access to the computer is the problem these days' guys! Anyway, I was pleased with lord cynics review (again) and decided to update as soon as I seen it. But I bet you guys already knew that right? RIGHT?! ...ahem....on with chapter twelve. (Update, I'm going to type in novel format that should be a good jump!)
Disclaimer: I did enough of these to fill one page! You think they would jump me by now...
Isaac and friends ventured through the eerie forest of the under side of weyward, stepping upon old gray leaves and strange silver lands as they walked, sending chills down each of their spines each time they stepped on a new leaf. They wondered how long it was going to take if they walked through the forest, beginning to think that they should have just given up, or set up camp at least to rest.
Iris glanced at Isaac as she walked by his side, wondering why his face was in such an gloomy fashion. Well duh, he's walking through a creepy forest with no light to be found! A voice spoke inside of her head. Iris turned away and began to ponder if she should have told them about the leaves in this forest holding magical energies capable of transporting them to the house they were heading towards. She laughed quietly to herself as the thought came up. "They would kill me for not telling them earlier..." "What's that Iris?" Isaac asked upon hearing Iris mumble. "Nothing, Isaac." "Alright Iris."
As the adepts kept on their forward pace, they soon began to view the creepiest house they have ever laid their eyes upon! It was like watching a horror movie from the 70's, except the lighting flashes and creepy birds staring at them with blood red eyes were actually real, more real than a stupid movie could ever make them. "Iris! Are you seriously telling us to go into that house?!" Isaac shouted angrily at the sweat dropping Iris.
Iris glanced at all of the poor adepts, Ivan having to resort to carrying Sheba, Felix carrying Jenna, Garet carrying Piers....wait Garet carrying Piers?! Iris shook her head madly trying to rid of the disturbing images that have creeped into her mind and sighed heavily. "Sorry, it's this, or the hundreds of impaler in the forest..." Before Iris could add anything that may have persuaded them to go into the house, they all yelled simultaneously "Frick that!" and ran towards the haunted mansion. "Hey! Wait for me!" Iris yelled, running after the adepts.
The mansion was much creepier than any of the adepts could have ever imagined! The walls had a bunch of old creepy paintings of Djinni, women and a few old guys holding books on the wonders of Alchemy and what not. It looked like a fantasy Kraden could have thought up of. The ceilings held a few chandeliers and spider webs draped the walls as well as anything else that could possibly hold a spider! It didn't look like a very healthy place to stay at all, but it was the only choice they had. Isaac looked around the mansion and let out a heavy sigh. He knew it was going to be a long, hard and possibly disturbing night for him and Mia. Mia for that fact, was already sleeping in his arms, she decided to avoid anything that would get her into a messy situation, lucky girl he thought.
"Well, you guys should start to set up your little areas around here, the other rooms around here collapsed and this is the only part of the house still available, lucky for you, the instillation isn't bad so you won't have to worry about being cold tonight." Iris explained. The Adepts gave each others glances with a mix of confusion and a little doubt, but they soon decided that it was best to trust Iris this time.
"So Iris, what do we do about heat? I don't really like sleeping in a place of brisk climates..." Jenna asked, rubbing the sides of her arms in hopes of keeping warm. Iris looked at her sympathetically and frowned. "I can go get some fire wood from the forest, you guys can stay here and commerce amongst yourselves until I get back or something." With that said, Iris walked out of the house, and headed towards the said Forest.
Isaac glanced at the angel whom he loved to call Mia and smiled as she slept on the blanket he had provided her. "Well, at least I can snuggle with someone!" Mia stirred in her sleep and turned over on her side, mumbling about magazines and how young girls were actually wearing pounds of make up. Isaac backed up a bit at the fun fact and eyed her wearily. "That....was disturbing..." "Tell me about." Isaac slowly turned his head around to see two purple eyes shimmering in his face, he jumped ten feet into the air and yelped as he grabbed onto the chandelier on the ceiling. "It's Satan!" He yelled.
"Hey! That wasn't very nice saccy poo!" Sharon yelled from the ground as Isaac dangled from the chandelier. Isaac glanced down from where he was clutching the chandelier for dear sweet life, it was a long fall down, and he didn't think that he could plant a landing without taking some kind of damage, maybe a sprained toe or something, but that was better than worth suffering from height fear. He let go of the chandelier and yelled something about fuzzy cubes, Sharon screamed as he flew down with fluid grace and landed....on top of her.
Sharon lost a lot of air as Isaac landed on her and crushed her lungs. She soon realized that Isaac was on top of her and smiled, forgetting all about the excruciating pain in her chest, then she latched onto Isaac's neck and hugged him hard. "Yay!" Sharon cheered as she had gained what she was wanting for at least the day they met! Sharon giggled as Isaac squired to get out of her death grip.
Felix turned to all of the noise and as he witnessed the scene of Sharon and a suffering Isaac, his eyes widened. "Oh crap....this isn't going to end well at all." Felix then glanced at Mia, who was now awake, and had flames in her eyes bigger than the suns all put together. "Guys..." Felix yelped. Everyone except the people involved in the predicament, namely Isaac, Sharon and Mia, glanced at Felix, and then to the people he was pointing at as he backed up. They all gaped in horror as they viewed the malevolent Mia, picking up a sword, which was way out of her fighting style and bring it above her head, and slowly walked towards Sharon and her victim.
Iris sighed as she picked up another branch she had hacked off with Garet's Excalibur. It was dirty work, but she had decided to do it, and she also decided to suggest that everyone else stay at the mansion. She scowled at her stupidity, it could have gone much faster had she some help! She guessed that it was for the best. Iris picked another branch and placed it in the already humongous pile of wood in her arm, how she carried it? Nobody would ever know....unless you put the lift pysnergy into place, then that pretty much answers everything.
She hacked off another few piles of branches and stacked them onto each other in perfect alignment as the others, and then she smiled at her handiwork. "This should keep everyone happy for awhile!" She then turned around and began to march back to the mansion, wearing an impeccable grin on her face, everyone knows that won't last too long, for as soon as she passed the pile of dust that was the Impaler a few hours ago, a pillar of fire came shooting out of the house, and into the clouds above, causing rain clouds to appear, and make the lighting more dangerous.
Iris sweat dropped as the fire faded and faint screams about Isaac and sexual positions were heard. "That must be Sharon and Mia going at it again..." Iris sighed, that was the fifth time already! Iris was beginning to think that they would be the ones to kill the planet, and not that portal to another dimension. She then mounted the pile of wood on her shoulder and sprinted towards the mansion with fears of chaos and destruction on her mind.
The villagers were discussing the disappearance of the adepts as the Wise one hovered over the portal eyes closed in concentration as he prevented the growth of the threat, it still remained the same size as it had before they left, the wise one was lucky to have came so quickly, what wasn't lucky was the rule about not interfering with the actions of man kind. The wise one eyed the glowing hole in the ground wearily, it was going to be a long, long adventure for those adepts, and he had to sit here and prevent a leech sucking hole from killing the planet! This just wasn't his day.
Dora glanced over at the wise one from her spot on a rock and frowned. Her husband noticed her sudden change in the mood so he asked her what was wrong. "Nothing...I just wished Isaac and his friends hadn't left so hastily, they didn't even say goodbye or even leave a note." Isaac's father nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I know what you mean, I wish I had been notified a little better as well, but there is not much we can ever do about it, we might as well trust them." Dora turned to her husband and smiled wryly. "I hope Isaac doesn't get to giddy with that Mia girl." Isaacs fathers eyes widened as he slowly gotten up from the rock, walked over to the balcony of their house and lifted his arms in the air slowly, with a horrified look mixed in with surprise and anger on his face, he yelled louder than anyone could bear without their ears bleeding. "ISAAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The battle was rigorous and painful for the two girls...or so Isaac had thought as they tumbled and bite at each others body parts while pulling one another's hair. Isaac felt a sudden chill attack as his whole body shivered as though someone had been yelling at him louder than a scream from Dullahan. "Did any body else feel those?" Isaac asked the adepts who were not fighting, they all shrugged in response as they watched the cat fight, mouths agape.
"Wench!" "Dirt bag!" Both girls tumbled and ripped at each others hair pins and eye lashes in hope to get one or the other to give up because of the excruciating pain. But nether faulted or gave up, for both of them wanted Isaac more badly than they wanted to go to the bathroom after holding it for a month! And that was something that was desired more than anything in the entire planet if it were to happen to you.
Iris came bursting into the mansion with a rather large pile of wood in her hands, after placing down all of the wood near the door, thereby blocking it from being opened, she then ran up to the adepts and screamed at then in pure horror. "What are you idiots doing!? Stop them! You know better than I that they will wake the Vipers in here!"
Everyone looked at each other in pure horror at the mentioning of "Vipers." This wasn't good. The last time the adepts encountered a Viper, which was a much, much weaker version of course; they had hardly survived the fight. (Will be explained later on in next chapter)
"Vipers?! But we thought that the one we found in the cave was the ONLY one!" Jenna shouted at the surprised looking Iris. "I guess not." Felix added sadly, grieving the loss of his sword after the viper ate it in that one battle. "Well...We had better stop them now then!" Piers suggested, but it was too late for that, a loud roar sounded from the bottom of the ground, everyone fell silent, even the wrestling girls who now looked like they had Afros for hair. A second roar, then the ground rumbled from a sudden movement. Everyone looked around the mansion in horror, expecting and attack from anywhere.
As everyone looked about in fear, a sudden flash of white light and a crushing noise was heard. As the light faded a 20 foot monster that looked almost like the vipers in weyward (topside) appeared, and it looked angry. It roared again as it charged the adepts.
