Endless Dreams Chapter 6: Morrigan's Arrival
Thoughts are in ' ' Spoken Dialogue is in " "
As Jon pondered Rayne's request he recalled his own past. The catastrophic day his home was annihilated. Back then he felt exactly like Rayne did right now, running into danger with no experience and no hope. He quickly rejected his thoughts, however, the memories were to traumatic. Rayne waited for a response, almost shaking with anticipation.
Jon sighed, "Rayne. . .I don't take pleasure in worrying about others. If you came with us you would just be a burden."
Rayne was furious, "I would not be a burden Jonathan, I am not a weakling!" he shouted, clenching his fist in anger.
Jonathan smiled and stood to his feet. "And what makes you think your strong enough to protect yourself against the Darkness?"
A slight smile came to Rayne's face, "Wait here." he said as he ran into the house.
Jon moaned as he sat back down, 'what is he thinking?' he thought
Several minutes later
Rayne tossed the front door open causing Jon to jump. The boy had two swords on his back. He was also wearing a black jacket over a white shirt. The black pants he was wearing slightly covered his black boots.
Jon bursted into laughter at the sight of Rayne, "What are you planning Rayne?" he said struggling to stop laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Rayne growled.
"Sorry." Jon said as he brushed a tear from his eye, still fighting not to laugh.
"If you think I look so funny why don't you fight me?" Rayne grumbled.
Jon was astonished, "What makes you think you could better me?" Jon asked, his expression quickly changing to anger.
Rayne sensed Jon was getting angry, "I've killed a few Darkstalkers before, I should be able to hold my ground against a human like yourself."
Jon smirked partially, 'He doesn't know I'm a Dark one, this could prove to be more fun than I thought.' Jon stood up from his seat and walked away from the house, "Okay, you can have your chance to prove yourself." Rayne slowly followed behind him. As Rayne stared into Jonathan's eyes, he drew the swords off his back.
Jon wanted to see how strong the young punk was. "Don't you dare hold back kid, cause if you do I swear I'll have no problem killing you!" Jon could act very serious when he wanted to. Right now though, he was just trying to bring out the best in the boy.
"You better not hold back either Jon!" Rayne smiled, "You ready?" he asked crossing his swords in front of himself.
"Of Course." Jon answered, standing loosely. Rayne charged at Jon, his swords flying through the air in fluid motions. Jonathan easily avoided every blow and countered with a punch to the young mans gut. "You're too slow kid." Jon laughed leaping back.
Rayne stumbled back a few feet reeling from the blow. "All right then, I guess it's time for me to stop playing around." Rayne panted as he sheathed one of his swords.
"You think one sword is going to do better than two?" Jon asked with a smirk on his face."
Rayne was holding his sword in his left hand. He stared at the sword with a look of insanity on his face.The blade of the sword began to extend and it grew a fiery red aura around it. "Yeah, this one will do much better." he whispered menacingly.
The young boy sprinted at Jon, now holding his sword with both hands. His swings were more precise with the sword now.
'He got much better.' Jon thought, 'But where in the world is he getting this energy from? It's not dark energy." He was confounded. Jonathan was still dodging the swipes, but they were getting dangerously close. 'I can't keep this up for much longer.' Jon thought fighting greatly to evade the blows.
"I've got you!!!" Rayne growled as his sword sliced into Jon's left shoulder.
Jon let out a howl as he was launched back several feet by the attack. The burning sensation in his shoulder would not cease. 'Where did that energy come from?' Jon thought getting irritated. No blood dripped from the wound, a red mark that glowed rested on his shoulder. Jon lifted himself up to stand. He held his shoulder with his right hand.
"Not bad Rayne, but I think it's time for me to get serious!" Jon was breathing heavily. 'Something is wrong with me.' Jon thought. No regular human could have had a sword like Rayne's. Jonathan's body trembled in pain. 'I can't transform.' Jon thought fearful of what the kid had done.
"So you finally realize what my sword can do." Rayne laughed wickedly. "Now I can kill you and there's not much you can do. Not even turn into your more powerful form."
"What are you talking about?" Jonathan was frail in his human body and he knew it.
"I was sent here by Pyron to kill you!" Rayne laughed.
The words hit Jonathan like a brick. He knew that if he couldn't transform he didn't stand a chance against one of Pyron's assassins.
"You're fairly fortunate though Jonathan." Rayne smiled at Jon.
"And why is that?" Jonathan asked trying to delay for time.
"I was not instructed to kill the feline!" Rayne said coldly.
Jon's eyes flared with anger, "You know you're lucky Rayne." Jonathan said barely perceptible.
"And why is that?" Rayne asked with a hint of sarcasm on his voice.
"Because if you did touch Felicia I would rip your heart out!" Jonathan growled.
Rayne smiled as he charged at Jon. Jonathan's body froze, more than likely from the cut of Rayne's sword. Rayne sheathed his sword and lifted Jonathan by the throat. "This should be fun." The young boy chuckled.
His strength was unbelievable. He lifted Jonathan in the air with ease. Jonathan's vision clouded from his lack of oxygen. 'So this is how i'm going to die?' Jonathan laughed in his head, 'Sure didn't picture it like this.'
"This might not be enough though," Rayne laughed, "I may just have to kill your girlfriend." he said lowering Jon to the ground. He bared his fangs and bit into Jon's neck.
'He's a vampire?' Jon thought as the blood was being drained from his body. 'I can't die, if I do then Felicia's helpless in the house asleep.' There was not much he could do though. He could feel himself dying. He wanted to protect Felicia, but he was helpless in this form. 'I'm sorry Felicia.' He thought glumly.
"Soulfist!" A flaming red ball of energy collided with the young vampires side, forcing him off of Jonathan's neck. Although the attack had saved Jon, Rayne had not let his prey go easily. Blood flowed from Jon's neck, which was now more damaged. The bleeding man fell to one knee pressing his right hand against his neck to stop the blood.
"Morrigan Aensland!?! What are you doing helping this whelp?" Rayne snapped, his fangs and mouth drenched in Jonathan's blood. The beautiful succubus was standing a few feet away from Jon with a bright smile on her face.
Jonathan stared at his savior. 'She was in my dream.' he thought. 'I wonder why she's helping me?'
She let out a slight laugh as she spoke, "Any ally of Pyron is an enemy of mine." She grinned. "Besides your just a coward, if he was in his real form he would tear you apart!" she said looking at Rayne.
"That's not true I can defeat anyone!" He yelled standing to his feet.
"Is that so?" Morrigan said, her joyous expression gone, "Then why not defeat me?" She asked sinisterly.
"I will!" he said drawing his flaming sword, "Now prepare to die!" he screamed as he charged at her. She shook her head as she nimbly dodged his swings.
'She's really fast!' Jon thought. Rayne's blows were as precise they were when he hit Jon, but he was nowhere near to hitting the succubus. The young vampire began to panic, not very many things could dodge his onslaught for so long.
"I'll kill you if it's the last thing I do!" The vampire yelled, fearing his foe. His attacks started to become sloppy. Morrigan capitalized on her enemies mistake.
She ducked under one of his swings and swept his left foot from under him. As he was falling to the floor she attacked once again. "Shadow Blade!" One of her wings grew a blade at the end which she used to wound Rayne. He rolled on the ground a few feet away dropping his sword which instantly burnt out. Jonathan could only stare in disbelief. She was skilled beyond anyone else he had ever seen.
Morrigan stood with her arms crossed, staring at the young boys inactive body. 'He's not dead just yet.' She thought, not the least bit worried. Rayne stood up, a long scratch had torn his chest open.
"So you still think you can beat me?" Morrigan asked mockingly.
Rayne only grew angry which made him even more reckless. He darted at the young succubus with nothing to use as a weapon.
"What a terrible move!" Morrigan sighed as her wings grew into spear like tentacles. They effortlessly impaled the young boy's body. With her tentacles still in him she lifted him into the air and ripped his body into pieces. He died with a terrifying scream.
Jonathan grew a little nauseated from the grotesque display. Her wings morphed back into their regular form. strangely enough they didn't have blood on them. The succubus smiled and looked at Jon "You should be more careful Talbain." She said kindly. "Not everyone is as trustworthy as you think."
'How does she know my name?' He thought as he tried to stand to his feet. 'I guess it doesn't matter since she just saved my life.'
"Are you sure you sure you should be getting up so quick," She asked, "You look pretty banged up to me."
Jonathan stood to his feet. "I'm fine. Werewolves regenerate simple wounds like these fast." He took his hand off of his neck. The blood still covered his neck but there were no teeth marks. The cut on his shoulder was also healed.
"I see." Morrigan replied
"So what brings you here Morrigan Aensland? And I would like to know why you decided to help me." Jon asked sternly.
"So you do know me." Morrigan smiled. "I see my reputation precedes me."
"Of course I know you." Jon said calmly. "I also know how you seem to never die." He was referring to the fact that even though she had fought Pyron numerous times, she was never killed by him.
"Well I can't really say why Pyron has not killed me, but I do know that you need my help. You can't defeat Pyron yourself and you know that." She said with a look of sadness in her eyes. Obviously Pyron wasn't a topic she liked talking about.
"Yes you're right, I could use your help. But what makes you think I should trust you?" He asked. His level of trusting others had went down greatly considering he had just been attacked by someone he thought was a friend.
"You can either trust me and have a chance of defeating Pyron. Or you and your girlfriend can just walk into certain death. It's all up to you." She said smiling.
Jonathan just growled, knowing she was a hundred percent correct.
"Besides, Pyron isn't our only problem." She said grimly.
Jonathan looked into her eyes. "You know somehow I knew that."

Well people this is chapter six of my story. Thanks for the support from all of the people who have been reading my story.(you know who you are) And if you like this story please refer it to friends cause reviews make me write faster and I'm always happy when I get them.
