Alternate Destiny: Sloth's Reign
Author's Notes: Remember how I said earlier: The shadowypath is rough now? Well, in this case it is true!
All the Outland Rebels split up and each Ownergoes their seperate way, but when they are not united they stand alone. Will they have trouble fighting Sloth if they are alone without the other's help? Will the Guards and Wielders catch them more easily?Like I said, they face challenges that no ordinary person can even dream of.
The Blue Wielder looked at Max who spoke respectfully. "I know, I feel privileged to meet you." he returned the compliment gracefully and delicately like a spider spinning a silk web. It was very courteous of him.
But urgently- like a chill to the core, the Wielder sensed many people coming. And by the feel of it, he knew that the people were Kana and his guards who were searching high and low for the Artesian and Outland rebels…!
The Blue Wielder'sunearthly lilac eyes seemed to sparkle like the cerulean ocean as his voice reverberated.
"Quickly, you must all go- before the Guards do show!" shouted the Blue Wielder as he vanished, leaving nothing behind of his presence, even his cloak seemed like mists.
It also left everyone (all of the combined Rebels) in a state of alarm at the extreme anxiety expressed by the Blue Wielder!
"Split up everyone!" shouted Maxine, "No time to waste!" Then he turned to Calais, "You must stay with me… No exceptions!" But with a pang of dismay, he saw that his arch-rival wasn't there to accompany him near the walls.
Calais, sometimes I wonder whether he really is true to us… He could almost hear Calais's laughter amongst the city, echoing throughout the district of Artesia, mingling with the sounds of battles.
Sabrina sprinted through the grey pillars that upheld the great city, camouflaged amongst the dimness that had cast upon her. Using these means to an advantage, she carefully treads the footpath. A stone clattered loudly as she turned towards the sound.
"If you think you can take me on that easily; then you must be mistaken." Nothing answered to her relief.
Just then she hears a slight rasping noise and clenches her pike, prepared to face whatever there was in that damned backdrop of Artesia…
Dana rode along with Isis, who was weaving swiftly through the dark dismal buildings, faster than a Meerca. Since the battle with the Aishas, Isis had learnt to develop her muscular frame for the endurance of dashing- instead of wasting her energy on flying.
The blue Eyrie was strong and loyal for her doting Owner's cause, but for how long must she withstand fatigue?
Unexpectedly, Dana saw (across the alley) a short cut they could use to outwit the Guards who were all chasing them…
"Turn, my dearest Isis!" she calls to her Eyrie who obeyed as they entered the diabolical alley… Cries of inhuman noises made her tremble, just what was in that alley?
Kali stumbled amongst the twisted dead trees as her Diaconate, Aerie followed, slowly sliding amongst the warped tapestry of the outer Ruins. The darkened shapes of the stones and shattered building seemed to beckon at her, the legacy of the Neopian myths.
A stranger amongst the strangest surroundings, she felt all lost and alone. Nobody could help her; nobody could rescue her from the guards of Artesia if they fell upon her- nobody except for her Draik hybrid.
The sharp wind whistled through the Ruins, sounding very menacing to the poor Kali… Shweeee… Holding a dagger, she ventured further into the Ruins, having no idea what lay ahead of her…
Artemis watched as his black cloak blended in with the background, but this time he had company. A Neopet constructed of pure ice was with him, misting the atmosphere with its breath. He will make sure that he will succeed…
That Rebel was doomed to a fate Artemis had in store for her. "She will be begging me for mercy, but I will give her none." He told the Ice Neopet.Then, the Ice Neopetreared up and said, "Let's get ahead with the plan."
The Wielder of Forces smiled and patted the painted Ice Uni. "Blitzen, you're right- let's wait till she is susceptible to our plans for her…"
