It is back and I will try to get to everyone at the end so here is a disclaimer and oh yes this is with Raven and he gets to fight the Water Element Guardian. Disclaimer I don't own anything at ALL! If I did, I don't know you guys would be playing this. Also thanks to Knux Rox cause now I know it is Scabbard and I will use it correctly. I recommend listening to the song Blue by A perfect circle… I wrote this chapter kind of to its tune some lyrics are actually in here to.
Chapter7, Blue.
It is time…
"I'm your nephew?" Raven asked in disbelief. "Well then prove it." Raven thought this was very suspicious and wouldn't take any chances. Silver sat in the corner snickering at the situation, he thought that the man was so drunk that he was confusing Raven with another Raven.
"What's up your ass?" Raven's uncle then pulled out a picture of Raven in his early childhood with the man and a tall boy with no hair and a girl about the same age as Raven. She had short black hair and hazel eyes that shimmered in the photograph. "See I told you, this is you before you joined the academy and left us." He looked at Raven with a look of concern.
"What do you mean 'left you' I was told I had no family." Raven looked at the photograph then something in the back of his mind awakened. Raven hurled and fell over into a ball as memories of the past rushed through his mind. He couldn't make two ends of what was happening as the flashes of past memories but he caught a few. He saw a man about the size of a Boulverine killing another man, A sword connecting with a tree and blood fly afterwards and last thing he saw was his father making someone vanish through some kind of portal. Raven then got up feeling that the man was really his uncle. "Okay uncle…"
"Serge." He replied cheerfully.
"So where do you live?" Silver looked at him looking for a sign as of where he was from.
"The east, I came here looking for you when half of the east started to pile down here. I thought it would be easier to find you when half of my people life down here." He started to laugh at his dumb luck. "Then when I got here, that damn Omega demon blocked the dock and now no one is coming or going anywhere."
"Well what if I told you I was trying to kill that thing." Raven looked at his uncle with a smirk.
"Why would that be." He looked serious.
"Because he holds one of the remaining six elements to open Alister's tomb and allowing me to take possession of the sword of Aeons." He looked at his blade with eager intent about holding the sword of Aeons in his hands.
"Raven has the Raiders recruited you?" His face stone cold.
"Yes." He looked at his uncle with the same seriousness as his uncle.
"Very well although I have to warn you, I do believe that some of your family won't be to pleased to hear of this and will try to kill you."
"Why?" Silver asked trying to sense any danger.
"The few remaining family members of ours have joined the guardians." He then took out his war hammer; "he is here." They turned around to find the water guardian ridding the Omega.
"So Raven, we finally get to meat each other." The Water Guardian had no hair and wore dark platemail and had a Scabbard with a sword hilt.
"So you're the next person I have to kill? Give it up now and I will kill you quickly." Raven took out his sword and charged the man. The guardian flipped off the omega and onto the ground.
"First you have to kill my pet the Omega." It was a tall pig-like monster on two legs. It sported two long horns, its skin was brown and extremely rough; it looked like a simple sword couldn't kill it.
"Raven you go on, me and Silver will take this one." Serge looked Silver and Silver gave serge thumbs up. Silver took out his blade and a scroll.
"By the powers of the Gods I sentence you back to where you belong." White chains wrapped around his arms and legs and began to drag him towards a large portal. It shook and screamed as it broke lose and charged them in a blind furry. Omega grabbed Silver in his hand and began to crush him. "Holy blinding light." A flash of light then caught the monster off guard and Serge jumped onto its back and drove his axe into the skull of the beast. It screamed as blood gushed from the wound but it shook it off and grabbed a large building and hurled it. They both dogged the building but were left vulnerable for its next attack. It took its large hands and slammed both of them into the ground with extreme force. The beast picked Serge into his hands and tried to crush him like he did Silver.
"You don't think I will be killed that easily Eric?" Serge yelled out. Serge began to yell out as an aura covered him and his body became even more ripped then it was before. He ripped the hands straight off the beast with a slight tug. "Now to finish you off." He yelled as he jumped on its shoulders and began to tug at the demon's neck. It screamed in pain as its head was separated from its shoulders and thus ending its life. Serge went back to his normal sat of muscularity as he wiped some of the blood off his face. There was a loud scream and the sound of a blade cutting through wet flesh. A sound Serge was very found of.
Raven looked at Eric with malice intent and a blade to back him up.
"So Raven it has to end this way? What a shame you could have been so powerful with the rest of your family guarding the blade." Eric shook his head with a sorrowful expression on his face but it was too late to change Raven's mind.
"Maybe, but to break my chains I must achieve victory to obtain power and power unleashes me from my bonds." Raven looked at Eric. "Besides what fun is it to have something of such power and not be able to use it."
"You still have no clue do you?" Eric took out his hilt to the blade but no blade was at the end. "The blade is not the true power it is he who uses it." He held the hilt of the saber in front of him and a fountain of water formed into the blade.
"Some magic trick you got there let's see if it packs a punch." Raven took his blade and charged Eric blindly and missed. Eric ran up his back and took his water blade and tried to decapitate Raven but he dogged out of the blade's reach but still took a cut to his cheek. "Maybe I was wrong this sword has some power. Let's see if you know how to use it." Raven this time got to Eric's side and tried a diagonal strike on the guardian but he jumped out of the way and charged Raven. Raven's blade hit against the water but it was like hitting a real blade.
"Raven, you fool, I will end this now." The blade disappeared sending Raven's blade towards the sky as Eric reformed his and sent to Raven's stomach. Raven coughed out some blood as the sword cut his stomach and suddenly sent a sharp pain to his leg. The blade had moved from his stomach to his leg. Raven let out a whelp as he fell over blood dripping down his stomach and his leg.
"Raven I told you it would end this way but now you must suffer to what your own blindness sent you into." Eric had a sorrowful face as he aimed the blade over his stomach and was to drive it in but a large battleaxe came in contact with the blade and knocked it out of his hand. The large axe returned to its owner Surge.
"I won't let you hurt him." Surge's axe was prone to kill someone at some time at the state of anger he was in.
"I see you took out my pet but I must warn you it was only half my power." Eric warned Surge as he charged him. Surge began to spin in a circle with his axe in front of him. The move caught Eric off guard and the blade stuck itself into his stomach. Eric was then swung around in circles by his stomach when he was let go. His body shot up towards the sky as blood seeped from his wound and he landed in the local bar. The glass shattered and the tables broke as Surge came in for the kill. His large lumbering body crashed through the window and found Eric lying on a table looking dead.
"Well that was pretty easy, let's see if he has the water medallion or whatnot." He put his hands over the body checking the body for it. "Hmmm, I guess it isn't on the outside maybe it is in the inside." He took his glove off and was about to put it down his throat when a large burst of beer knocked him out off the bar. Eric's wounds magically healed over and he got back up to fight.
"How much do you like your beer now?" Eric chuckled. "You fool only the one with the blade is capable of killing me. Not some old drunken bard that has more muscles then he does brains." He then got out of the bar and took out his blade.
"Let's see your water put you back together when I cut you in half." Surge was about to use his transformation spell but Eric had a counter spell.
"Tides of water." He shouted and three water symbols wrapped themselves around Surge knocking him down. "That my friend was a will-binding spell. Thus rendering you pretty useless." He took out the blade and was about to kill Surge when a white light hit him with tremendous force. Silver was over by Raven and was currently healing him from sever injuries he had sustained from Eric. Silver began to chant and use ancient magic to heal him instead of a regular cure spell. Another burst of white light and this time a transparent phoenix laid its head on Raven's chest, which was the spell. Raven arose with the Phoenix wrapped around his tight body and a new dent in his armor. The spell healed him from his injuries and gives him a temporary shield.
"Do you not know how to DIE?" Eric got up infuriated after the attack.
"Silver go help my uncle I have to do this on my own." Raven felt a warm breeze blow in as Silver left to help Surge.
"So Raven this is your idea of gaining power. Don't you know that all this will lead you to your death?" Eric took his blade out one last. "Your father is getting stronger this way." But Eric was blindsided when Raven's blade made contact with his leg. Blood dripped down his leg as Raven looked at him with a grin.
"Didn't you learn not to talk so much goddamn." Raven took his blade and drove it into Eric's stomach. He let out a dying breath as he talked one more sentence,
"Raven, may Avo have mercy on your soul, please reconsider this. It will only lead you down the path of darkness and death." He put his hand out. "Heal me Raven and join us." Raven looked at Eric with a smirk.
"In hell I will give my most sincere greetings." Raven then cut off Eric's arm and drove the sword once more into his stomach. Eric rolled over and he coughed out the water element crystal. Raven walked over to Eric's body and picked up the crystal.
"Tow down five more to go." Raven smirked as he and his crew walked out to the shipyard. "So now that we have the shipyard clear would we be able to go the East?" Raven looked at Surge.
"Now we can, but now Raven do you see why I warned you about the guardians. From here on out they will be stronger and not to mention some of them we will not be able to help you fight." Surge looked concerned.
"Nothing I can't handle." Raven looked towards the lowering sun. Something was going to happen and he didn't like it. He knew that his uncle was on to something more than finding him…he had plans of his own.
Alex strolled up the stairs taking off his armor hoping that his punishment wasn't to severe and deadly. He walked into his father's chambers and looked at his father. His orange hair was about shoulder length and had many knots. His large body was a fear just to look at and even more fearful to think about him crushing you. His face covered by a mask for some reason. Now was the time to tell him right after dinner. Alex walked up to the throne and got on one knee. "Father I have some bad news." He trembled.
"What is it now Alex." He roared.
"Eric has also fallen to Raven, maybe we should give him more credit than what we are giving him. He was after all he was my pupil and thus he fights like his master. I think it is time we send one of my star students." He got up and called out for his student, "Yoshiro come out here." His voice echoed throughout the large hall. After a second a medium sized man made out of wood came into the hall. His mask had many faces and he carried a flag on his back.
"Yoshiro is present." He said with his legs crossed.
"The man we are hunting is heading to New Port in the East I would like it if you gave him a warm welcoming present courtesy of me and Ren." He barked in a sour voice.
"Yes master." Yoshiro vanished into thin air as he would await Raven, Surge and Silver.
"Now Alex it is time you learn a secret about your power. The only way for you to be at least near the strength of Raven with a powered blade you would need to have the power of another element. Sense you are not aloud to kill the other two holders I advise you find someone that has another element and would be most surprised if you were to kill him." Torment looked at him.
"You mean you want me to kill my…"Torment cut off Alex before he could finish.
"It is a secret to everyone okay?" He laughed after Alex left trembling. For once in his life Alex was scared.
