The Devil's Knighthood Chapter 25 The Fire of Althena's Judgment
"What can we do to stop them?" asked Mia.
"The shape shifter will have most likely increased security, so It may be difficult to get in, but first we need to make sure no one is at the Magic Boost Star on the Second level. That's were the incantations that bring that control the fire are cast. That much I know, but I am not sure how he plans to bring back the flames." Said the High priest.
" The flames were originally made from my mom's Dragon Aura." Said Alex. " As long as they don't get that we should be ok." "
I hope you're right, I've heard stories of when The Dark Chosen were using The Judgment to control Azado. Something like that should never be repeated." Said Keiko.
Tapen's Peak
The DKH showed no signs of being anywhere near Taben's Peak. But other trouble was brewing. A a group of kids were gathered in the center of the play ground, their ages ranged from 12-14.
" Ok, so Bruno is going to play Ronfar, Lily is going to be Lemina, Jason is going to be Hiro, Ritea is going to play Jean, I'm going to be Leo, Now all we need to someone to be Lucia." Said a beastboy named Tigato. He had a horn on his forehead, but instead of pointing in the usual direction, it was pointing upward at a sharper angle. He had dirty blond hair and amber eyes. The kid called Bruno was rather big for his age, Nall thought he might be half giant. He had dark blue hair, green eyes and was dressed like Ronfar. Lily had waist length brown hair and blue eyes, she was dressed as Lemina. Jason had silver hair and turquoise eyes, He was dressed as Hiro. Ritea had violet hair and brown eyes, she was dressed as Jean in the Blue Dragon Outfit.
" I think Anna should be Lucia." Said Jason.
" Why?" asked Tigato.
" She's like Lucia." Said Jason.
" How come ever time you get to be Hiro, Anna is Lucia?" asked Ritea with a smirk. "Coincidence." said Jason.
" I bet you like her." Said Ritea, Jason began to blush.
" She's just my friend." Said Jason.
" Jason has a crush on Anna, Jason has a crush on Anna." Said Ritea in a singsong voice.
" Why would I like some dumb girl like her!" Jason said.
" You Jerk!" Someone shouted. Jason turned around and saw Anna. She had shoulder length red hair and brown eyes, she was wearing a green dress ans a white shirt. Then she ran away. "
Anna! Wait up!" Jason ran after her. but hew wasn't as fast as Anna and she got to the lift before Jason, who had run into Ruby in his rush.
" What's the rush?" Ruby asked. Jason sighed.
" I said some really stupid things and now Anna's mad at me." He told her the story.
" Let's go get her, then I'll let you two settle this." Said Ruby, they boarded the lift and left Taben's Peak.
" Anna! Anna where are you?" Ruby called.
" Excuse me miss, Is this the child you were looking for?" asked man. He wore a black traveler's cloak with same color pants and shirt. He had green eyes and brown hair.
" Anna are you ready to come back?" asked Ruby.
" But what about..." Anna started.
" You should ask him yourself." Said Ruby.
" Ok Big Sister." Anna walked over to Ruby.
" Thank you for helping Anna." Said Ruby. The man extended his hand.
" No problem mis. " Ruby shook his hand and suddenly felt dizzy.
" Are you ok?" He asked.
" ...I'm ...fine." Said Ruby. The man walked away. Ruby turned to see Jason and Anna facing each other but looking at the ground.
" I'm sorry for calling you a dumb girl." Said Jason.
" It's ok." Said Anna. Ruby smiled at the two.
" Come on let's go back." Said Ruby and they left. Nearby the man chuckled.
" Well Absor, did you get it?" asked a figure in dark armor. Absor revealed a bottle with something red glowing in it.
" Mission accomplished." He said.
" I thought Dragon Aura would look different."
" This isn't the aura it's self, just a good deal of energy from it." Said Absor.
" WHAT?! You were supposed to get the Aura!"
" If I tried to get her aura, she would have noticed and fought against me, I wouldn't have stood a chance against her! Even worse, her mate might have heard and come to attack too." Said Absor. " This will be plenty for the plan."
" Alright, it's your neck if It doesn't work." Said the Figure in Dark Armor. The two of them vanished. They reappeared in Azado's Temple, on the second level. They walked to the center of the magic circle, where tall crystal rested on a pedestal.
" With this crystal, we will create a creature many times more powerful then the last one." Said the figure in Dark Armor.
" Yes, since my lord was so generous as to donate it and that armor to your cause." Said Absor. Priests of the Chosen began filling in.
" Were is the High Priest?" one asked. " He will be here shortly, now please chant the words that we told you about." Said the figure in Dark armor.
" Satzi, why are you wearing all that armor?" another one asked. " You look strange." Satzi growled softly.
" Just in case." He said. " Now chant."
" The words seem too harsh, like something the old chosen would have said." said the priests. "
The High Priest wants you to chant those words!" Satzi almost shouted. Absor sighed.
" Allow me." He said. He walked to where some plants were potted, and grabbed some flowers and watched as they withered away, then he turned back to the priests and fired a beam at them. All of them got blank stares and took up positions around the magic circle. Absor smiled and placed the bottle of energy below the crystal. The priests began chanting.
" Now it's only a matter of time." Said Absor.
" I'm going to set up a barrier so no one finds this place."
" Good idea, I'll help." said the Shape Shifter.
" Where have you been?"
" Just reporting to Lord Shane."
" Alright just help me set up this barrier."
With the Traveling Mages
Alex's head turned towards the temple.
" What's wrong Alex?" asked Ali.
" I thought I sensed Dragon power over at that Temple." Said Alex.
" I felt it too." Said Garnet.
" But you said they'd need Ruby's aura to make another creature, I don't see how it's possible that she would loss it." Said Mia.
" Yeah I guess you're right." Said Alex.
" Hey Ryan, you were on your own for a while when you were young right?" asked Monfar.
"Yeah why?" asked Ryan.
" Do you know how to get rid of insects? They're been bothering me a lot." said Monfar.
"Insects." Said Alex in pensive tone. " That's it!" He said suddenly.
"What?" asked Hikaru.
" There is a certain kind of magic that allows the mage to steal energy from other life forms, kind of like a leach. If that kind of mage found any of the dragons, they could siphon magical energy from them with them noticing." Said Alex.
" So you think the DKH found a parasite mage and sent them to Taben's Peak?" asked Hikaru.
" Yes, exactly." said Alex.
" Then what are waiting for?" asked Monfar. They all left the house and headed for the temple. When they arrived at the temple they saw living fireballs and gargoyles bearing swords, and mesmerized priests waiting for them. Alex and Ali drew their swords and charged the gargoyles, Monfar and Laura followed them. Hikaru and Ryan with their spirit friends tried to take down the priests without actually hurting them. Mia charged a water spell to use against the fire balls.
One gargoyle made a stab at Alex, he blocked with his own sword and fired him with other hand. He then made jump and landed his blade into the skull of another gargoyle. Several joined up and attacked him together. Alex spread his wings and rose into the sky to avoid their attacks. The sheathed his swords and threw a large fire ball at them.
Ali weaved out of gargoyle's slashes, then made lashed out at it and cut it across the chest, then finished it with a thrust through it' s chest. She ran towards another group and began to bring it down when she saw Monfar having trouble, she threw her sword over in his direction and used the wind to help him, but now she was without her sword, the gargoyle's got cocky and rushed her. She simply snapped her fingers and the air around them picked up, it began swirling them around them, them began making cuts in them, eventually the wind shredded them. Ali summoned her sword back to her and went to help her other friends.
Mia threw water ball after water ball at the approaching Fire creatures, but it wasn't taking down enough of them so she tried a new tactic. She put both her hands together and fired a stream of water from them, dousing the flames and only leaves a hissing sound and some steam as the only proof they were ever there.
Kyushi and Spirit were a great team, they're ability to reach into the priest's minds and shut them down was invaluable, since the spell they were under seemed to increased there endurance and couldn't be subdued by physically means. When all the enemies fell, the Mages were able to advance into the temple. They found Satzi waiting for them. " You're too late! Soon the spell will be complete and the Fire of Althena's Judgment will be revived!"
Sorry about the ending, It just seemed like a good place to stop. Don't forget to read TalonClawFange's fics. Please Review.
