Chapter 7: The Battle Begins…but Does it End?
The Pteri screeched for its master to come. At that moment, a tall, darkish-purple figure with armor on that looked like an eagle strode out. The Pteri perched on his shoulders, talons gleaming menacingly.
(To Neopians: I know Lord Kass doesn't have a Pteri on his shoulder, but I just wanted to add SOMETHING! Don't want to be a copycat now would I?)
"What do you want, puny school kid?" he growled.
Sure, try to be as scary as you can.
"I'd like to help your side in this war, sir," she said.
"Fine. We might have a use for a ghost soon…"
OH FOR…
In the distance, a horn sounded.
"Troops! Move to the Darkness Island of Air! They'll be planning a sneak attack on us, because they think we're stupid," Kass ordered.
Well you ARE. thought Nona.
Nona hitched a ride on another Pteri, and off they were.
Meanwhile, the Meridell troops were moving toward the citadel and the Faerie pets spotted the others quickly.
Spyro could see the Kass Army moving toward the Island. He signaled Bianca to send out a blast of fire with him. It was a direct hit to the last 5 columns of flying pets. (Luckily) Nona was not hit.
The Kass Army shot through the air full speed ahead. Everybody unanimously decided to fight on land.
When they got there, the top Meridell knights snuck around to behind the enemy bosses, while the Kass Army was doing just the same. Nona was done oiling her feet, and she kicked everything no problem.
But Spyro was focusing on the past as he was fighting. What did that cloud mean when she said one enemy you are familiar with? And a traitor?
Nina's hands were skilled in fighting, and Spyro barely noticed her.
Spyro was now having flashbacks.
Begin Flashback
"Nina wants to play with purple puppy!" (Guess who)
Really. Your hands get in the way of everything. So do you.
(Afterward)
"Waah! Why won't you play with me, purple puppy?"
End Flashback
"Purple puppy watch out!" A blast of darkness was propelling itself like a bullet towards Spyro. Swiftly, he flew out of the way. Then he remembered that voice—"NINA?"
Oh crap. she thought.
The Meridell troops weren't doing so hot. Only one knight fought his way through to Lord Kass.
"Jeran. Did you really think Meridell's top knight could prevail?" Kass knocked him over to an edge of the island.
The blue wolf-like knight was just barely hanging from the edge. "Goodbye Jeran. And don't worry. Your little sister Lisha will be well taken care of."
Goodbye, Lisha. He thought as he plummeted to the rocky grounds below.
(Insert line here)
Most everybody was just completely worn out and could not move.
At that moment, the same blast of darkness enclosed Hunter. "NO! Hunter!" Bianca rushed to his side, trying to use healing magic and light magic to undo the darkness spell.
End of Chapter 7
