Diablo part 3: Angelic Dreams
The emerald began to pulse deeply, as if activated by some unknown source. A cracked, decrepit voice echoed through the room. Hope and strength from your soul! Come to save us! Make us whole!. Just then, a large bolt of lighting jolted from the large emerald. Striking Sephir in the back and knocking him off his feet. "Sephir!", Wei screamed, now surrounded by six large demons. "Damn it!", Sephir exclaimed, wiping blood from a newly formed wound on his forehead. Getting up, Sephir raised his hand to release a ball of fire. As the air screamed around his body, he released the giant ball of flame. It stopped in mid air and vanished in a wisp of smoke. Demon and human alike stood still as the ground began to shake violently.
The large emerald in the middle of the room began to crack and splinter. As shards of the emerald flew off from the giant gem, a silhouette of a person could be seen. A great light began to shine through the cracks in the emerald and a woman like scream echoed through the room. "Who disturbs Cain's resting grounds?", the woman like voice screamed, "I am Vera, Daughter of Tyrael and Keeper of this planets lost memories." The screaming ceased and the emerald blasted into pieces, revealing a doubled-over female angel with great, white wings where the gem once stood. Standing up, the angel hefted up a flaming cross bow and opened fire on the demons. The arrows caught some demons in the chest setting them aflame and finally exploding into millions of bloody pieces. Others caught the demons in the head, which ripped a gapping hole in it causing the demon to slump over and collapse. "Wei, get down!", Sephir yelled, dodging a stray arrow. Laying on the floor, Sephir and Wei hold their hands over their heads while flinching at every explosion.
The assault of arrows suddenly ceased. Which created a strange, but relieving cense of safety. Wei was the first to raise her head and looking up she paused, she gasped. Vera was mere inches from her face, "Good.", she whispered. "Good?", Wei whimpered, falling backwards. "What's good?", Sephir asked. The blue-eyed angel glared at Sephir, tensed, and flew out through the corridor that Sephir and Wei had entered. Looking around the bloodied and demolished room, Sephir noticed a unusually large engraving circling the area where the Emerald once stood. "Wei, did your father teach you how to read runes?", Sephir asked. "Hm, gimme a sec.", Wei replied. "Here stands the last barrier, the Hell Mouth's only key.", she read, walking around the crater where the Emerald stood. "The rest is dust. I can't read it.", she ended, slumping over. "We need to get out of here.", Sephir sighed. "We'll try to follow that angel. There's got to be some sightings of her leaving.", he said with enthusiasm.
"How are we going to catch up with her? She's an angel, you know fast flight and all that.",Wei asked, walking out of the crater created by the excavation equipment. Sephir smiled, helping her out of the crater. "Wow!", Wei yelled, staring at a shiny, black motorcycle. "Where do we go first?", she asked. "I figured we'd go into the closest town. Someone has got to have seen something.", Sephir replied hopping an the motorcycle. Revving the engine, Wei smiled at him. "Lets go.", he said nodding to the passenger seat. Wei jumped on and they sped off toward the nearest town.
