TRANSGRESSIONS OF FATE
By: RAGNAR (that really is my name)
Chapter 13: Sei'Gash
The white place that surrounded Freya just moments ago now turned to a forest as she let Deyin lead the way. Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the canopy of trees. She could hear birds chirping from their high perches. Her footsteps were followed by the sound of crunching leaves beneath her feet.
"Where are you taking me, Deyin?" Freya asked as the girl led her on the maze of trees, "You still haven't told me where we are yet..."
The words trailed off in her mouth when they entered a clearing.
A woman sat on a rock not far from where she stood. A deer was feeding off her hand. Her long golden hair shone in the sunlight that bathed her.
As Freya approached, the deer tensed and ran off. The woman just smiled at her as she stood up, her flowing gown going with the slightest breeze.
She was the most beautiful woman Freya had ever seen. The gown covered her entire body, yet they couldn't hide the woman's curves, especially when she walked through the sunlight. Ebony black eyes lay in contrast with her milky white complexion. Full red lips pulled back into a smile as she approached Freya.
"Welcome, Freya." Her voice was to her ears like honey was to the tongue, "I have been waiting for you."
The words that formed in her head made Freya feel awkward. She stared at the ground trying to find a suitable way to talk to this lady.
To her embarrassment, the woman let out an audible breath laced with amusement. In short, she laughed. Even that suits her beauty.
Freya felt the woman's hand on her chin, lifting her face up. She saw the woman's eyes gazing into hers. Like deep dark wells, they pulled her into them. Freya felt like she could drown in those eyes. It was as if they seemed to look into her soul.
She could feel her face burning up from scalp to neck.
"I... what..." Freya felt frustrated at her lack of words.
The woman's face inched closer to Freya "There is no need to be afraid. You can say anything to me."
After an eternity of struggling with herself, she was finally able to speak. "Where am I?"
For the second time, Freya felt mortified as the woman laughed again. "Why, we are in your mind, of course."
Her... mind?
Freya was still captivated by the woman's eyes to think clearly.
She tried to struggle with the concept. Tried to find words that could help her understand. Instead, all she could stutter was, "Who... who are you?"
A finger pressed against her lips, her skin was so soft against her mouth. The woman went even closer to Freya until their faces were just a bare inch apart
"Shhhhhh... All in due time, Freya... You will know all you wish to know if you wait." Freya found herself slack-jawed just hearing the woman's voice, out of breath because those eyes of hers never let her go, "For now, sleep."
Freya can feel her body going weak "What... what are... you... doing..." she couldn't find the strength finish the sentence. Her eyes were growing too heavy for her to keep them open.
The woman's voice echoed in the air, "Sleep, my little goddess... sleep."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sodos and Degedos watched the carnage that the demon, Sei'Gash, created.
Sodos drew out his knives, his own version of Hope and Pain. "This is it, Degedos, we can no longer turn back from this."
The one-time rebel leader turned to him "I go where you go, Sodos."
"Then, be prepared to die with me."
The steel from the Knight's katana rang as he drew it from its scabbard, ancient symbols began to glow at its blade. "I already am."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sei'Gash turned towards the north. He knew the energy that was forming in that direction. He had been living with it for so long that he no longer became sick of it.
It was the energy of an awakened Keeper.
Sneering, he started to walk towards the thing that kept him imprisoned in the core of this pitiful soul. His footsteps burning holes in the ground where he tread upon.
The Dark Twins in his hands reflected his fury. Kieria's blade became colder while Priega's flames started to spread to the hilt.
Burning.
Freezing.
His rage churning within him without end. He didn't know who had released him. He didn't care.
He will carry out his mission. He will rid this world of its festering existence.
He will be standing at the pinnacle as the Guardians watch their precious world being ripped apart – piece by little piece.
After he destroys their little creation, he will come after them. Oh, sweet vengeance will be his!
He is free. And he will make the Guardians regret that they have thrown him out of the Council of Creation. They will weep before he obliterates each and every one of them. He will not stop until he has destroyed EVERYTHING that the Guardians stood for!
The flames on Priega'a blade roared to a greater extent; the freezing cold on Kieria turning air into frost as his rage sparked up even more. His eyes turned even darker at the very thought of the Guardians' rejection upon him.
He will make sure life will be suffering.
The screams of suffering and dying men, women, and children will rise up into to the heavens, declaring him their savior as he rids them of their pitiful lives.
Dark mist began to form from his back as it started to take on the shape of raven's wings. From the void of the mist, he could hear the pain of all the dead that he had taken. Their voices were a great source of his entertainment as he allowed them to wail in their light-forsaken prison.
Spreading his wings, the screams trailing along with their motion, Sei'Gash lifted himself to the sky. The head of the Keeper will be his first trophy. She will regret ever keeping him in his prison.
Suddenly, Sei'Gash found himself plummeting down to the earth, his back had a smoldering crater that slowly closed upon itself.
Someone dared to attack him!?
Standing up while resuming his deflection aura, he took a look at the one that had the foolishness to try to take him on.
At the middle of the bridge, he could see a man in black and red robes holding a staff that was smoking at the tip.
Well now... A lone Priest against him?
"YOU ARE FOOLHARDY TO THINK THAT YOU CAN STOP ME, LITTLE MAN."
The fool Priest's voice was deep, and... determined "I have no hopes on that, demon, but the gods know that I will try."
Sei'Gash couldn't help but laugh.
"THEN JOIN THE REST OF THOSE FOOLS IN OBLIVION!!!"
With that, he ran towards the Priest. Kieria and Priega's voices screeching in his head, demanding that they taste the Priest's soul as it goes into the darkness.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meshido had no idea what he just put himself into, but he was as sure as the Truth that he wouldn't let this... thing go into Freya's direction... he owed the girl too much to let her die like those poor soldiers.
Before Sei'Gash covered half the distance towards him. Meshido did something that he never thought could be done. Summoning all his energy and concentration, he released it all towards the demon in a barrage of Holy Light spells.
Light from the heavens went straight towards Sei'Gash faster than any lightning, only to be deflected to the side. Rock and dirt flew towards the air as the thousands of heavenly blows showered the earth close to the demon.
The air was covered with the noise of his attack.
Even with his new skill, Meshido knew that it was hopeless. The demon's aura was made so that any mere spell won't hit him. His barrage only weakened it so much...
He can see the double points of the ice-cold blade going straight for his throat.
Looks like this is it...
The Holy Barrage took out far too much from him, drained every ounce of his energy. Meshido's vision began to cloud and darken at the edges as he can feel his body going limp.
He wondered if he would die of exhaustion before that knife severs his head.
Then, Meshido heard a familiar whistling sound, as if something sharp was going through the air.
But before Meshido could even see what that object was... he collapsed to the floor.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Kevin braced himself for the shield's impact on Sei'Gash's face as he threw it with all his might.
Meshido was down for the count, but Kevin was not.
The shield was just one foot away from the demon when it steadily changed course to the left.
Instead of slamming on Sei'Gash, it hit his knife, deflecting the blow that was meant for Meshido.
The shield kept on flying on until it hit a tree. Kevin could hear its branches shake at the impact.
Lucky son of a bitch... unconscious in front of the enemy but he still gets to live...
Mounting his Peco-peco, Kevin took out a spear and charged towards the demon. He could feel the bird's fluid movements as it gave its all just to carry the Crusader to his target.
Then, before he knew it, Sei'Gash grabbed his spear and threw him aside and off the Peco-peco.
When he could finally stand up, he saw the bird's headless carcass being thrown straight at him. The decapitated corpse hit him in full force sending him back a few feet.
Before Kevin could even crawl out from under the bird, Sei'Gash grabbed him by the neck. The demon's grip was threatening to snap his head off if he didn't act fast.
"PUTANG INA MO!... ETONG SA'YO!!!"
The Crusader screamed in his native language as he unleashed a spell that caused the ground around them to violently shake. Holy Light sprung from the cracks on the ground as his spell neared its finale.
Then, the Holy Cross spell was complete with an explosion so great that both the demon and Kevin flew across the air and slammed to the ground. Kevin's armor was torn off by the violence of the explosion.
After struggling to stand up, he unhooked his hammer and his sword. The demon was already walking towards him as he braced himself for the fight.
Instead of locking swords however, the demon just stood a few feet away from him.
"I SENSE THAT YOU'RE ONLY HALF HUMAN, CRUSADER." The demon's voice sounded like it would shake his skull loose.
Seig'Gash actually smiled in genuine amusement, "TELL ME, WHAT SKIN COLOR DO YOU PREFER? PINK OR GREEN?"
Kevin had no time for shitty chitchat, he would rather everyone just left that subject alone. "Go screw yourself, asshole. I'm not into mind games."
The demon tilted his head to the side, "PITY... YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD SERVANT."
"Like I said before, go bitch your mom... You have nothing on me."
Sei'Gash smirked as he resumed his approach.
Kevin's lips peeled back into a snarl as he charged, hammer and blade in hand. He just ignored the sudden weakness that engulfed his entire body.
This is why he hated casting spells. They were just too tiring mentally. And whatever his state of mind, it usually reflects on his physical strength. The Holy Cross spell was just too much of a bomb for him to handle.
He had just moments too realize that the demon was moving far too fast for him; just moments to know that he had both knives in his gut. He could feel his right side burning up while his left was beginning to freeze.
"Sh...shit."
He struggled to stay awake, tried to stay conscious another second.
Darkness began to creep into his sight.
His weapons fell to the ground, as his body became limp.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sei'Gash watched as the half-breed Crusader's lifeless corpse fell to the ground.
Krieria and Priega began feasting on the man's blood that stained them as he summoned his wings.
He sheathed the Dark Twins by stabbing his sides with them until they disappeared, obsidian hilt and all.
Part of the pact he made with the daggers was that they could only rest in his blood. The two dark blades are part of him now; he can feel their power flowing in his veins. They will come when he bids for them again.
Now, it would be the Keeper's turn to die.
Suddenly, Sei'Gash sensed a portal opening behind him.
So, you're the demon Shadow Eyes tried so hard to destroy...
A voice rang from inside the glowing pillar as the figures of two men emerged from it.
This is getting more irritating by the minute, "MORE DISTRACTIONS?"
As the portal closed, he could see that the two men were an Assassin and a Knight. Both of them had their weapons drawn.
The Assassin had a curved black dagger in each hand, while the Knight held a katana.
"You might be wondering why you were released." The Assassin's voice was empty of every human emotion, Sei'Gash can also sense none in his soul. Impressive, not many are capable of such a feat.
Sei'Gash summoned the Dark Twins again. The knives formed by springing out from under his skin and into his hands.
"ACTUALLY, I DON'T CARE... I'M FREE AND THAT'S ALL THAT I WISH TO THINK ABOUT. BUT SINCE YOU ARE IN MY WAY, YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE MY KNIVES VERY SATISFIED WITH YOUR BLOOD."
The Knight started to grin as he readied his sword. The Assassin's form started to fade into the air as they both stood in a battle stance.
The Assassin's eyes took on a dangerous glint, "Well, I brought you out for one reason, and that is to destroy you."
Sei'Gash couldn't help but laugh at the man's audacity.
"YOU, LITTLE MAN? DESTROY ME? PRIEGA AND KRIERIA WILL ENJOY DINING ON YOUR SOULS."
The Assassin's knives started to glow... something about those blades seemed familiar to Sei'Gash. "Don't make promises you can't keep."
He placed himself on a defensive position as both Knight and Assassin charged.
