Chapter 7: The Ambush

The next morning, Bruno and Igraine began traversing the icy mountain after last night (wink). Last night might have been Igraine's most happiest moment in her life as she had woken cuddling with the boy of her life.

As they climbed out of the cave, Igraine began to have that strange feeling again, and it wasn't just the pain from her wound. As if something was watching her. Bruno had been noticing her condition and remembered that she was acting similarly to when they were about to split up in their mission. Only now it was worse. "Hey, you alright?" Igraine snapped back into reality and replied. "I feel like we're being watched." Before Bruno could speak...

BOOM

Bruno and Igraine were thrown forward and tumbled in the snow, but got up with their weapons in hand. "What was that?!" Igraine asked. "Dunno! Just get ready! Bruno replied back. Seconds later, Link Joker units began sprinting down the path with blades in the air while more came down the mountainside shooting their plasma rifles.

Igraine engaged the enemies up front as she summoned glowing swords practically out of thin air and launched it at the enemy while Bruno fired arrows and dodged the shots as one by one each fell. One of the soldier's charged shots fired up at the top of the mountain when it died at it caused another avalanche to come down. 'Not again!' Both Igraine and Bruno thought and sprinted towards an open cave, until a stray shot hit one of Bruno's leg. "NNnng!?" Bruno collapsed to the ground, trying to get up. Igraine noticed this and ran back and helped him up and ran towards the cave. They both dove through the cave and felt snow fall from outside as the avalanche subsided.

Igraine raised her head from the snow to look up and crane her neck to try to look for Bruno to only find more snow. "Bruno? Hello? Where are you?" Igraine was about to get up from her stomach when she felt small shakes under her breasts and stopped. She quickly got up and she saw Bruno get up from the snow she laid on. "*gasp* Whew, for some reason I couldn't breathe from under the snow. Igraine, you okay?" Bruno asked after brushing snow off his hair.

Igraine tried to keep calm and steady her breathing from realizing that Bruno couldn't breathe because her breasts were suffocating him, but couldn't. Bruno looked at her for a split-second before turning back around in embarrassment. Igraine stopped and stared at him and asked "What is it now?" "You're coat." Bruno said quickly. Igraine looked down to see her coat unraveled, revealing a gap that showed her stomach, up to her neck and portions of her breasts. Igraine turned around wrapped her self again.. "Y-you didn't see anything! Did you?" she asked. "I just saw it unravel. Unless you wanted me to see more." he replied. Igraine ignored the comment and stood up and walked over to Bruno who was still looking away.

"You can look now." She said shyly. Bruno looked up to see Igraine blushing with her holding one of her arms with the other behind her back. "Okay, then lets go." Bruno said. As Bruno got up, Igraine noticed an extra blood stain where Bruno's hand was. She soon followed after Bruno and entered a large room with vast amounts of space with stalagmite, stalactites and icy pillars. After looking around for about a minute, the two knights felt a rising rumbling under their feet, until the floor broke apart revealing a black-grayish dragon with crimson red streaks with black rings hovering behind him. Only now, it was covered in scars, bruises and blood still dripping.

"Missed me?" said Nebula Lord as it fired a dark pulse at Bruno and Igraine. They rolled out of the way and hid among the stalagmites. 'How did it find us?!' Igraine thought as she moved to a different stalagmite, before it was blown pieces second later. "Come out kiddies! Where are you?", bellowed the dragon. 'Damn, how did he find us so quickly?!' Bruno thought. He aimed his arrows near Nebula Lord's open scars and wounds. It roared with rage as it spotted Bruno and raised it's fists and attempted to smash him.

As the dust settled, Bruno leaned his back against the icy stalagmite and coughed up blood. "No! not now..." Bruno thought as his vision was becoming blurry. Bruno snapped back to reality as he saw Igraine launching more swords at fight Nebula Lord Dragon by aiming at his upward body quickly striking at it's legs and then hiding again. "Not just yet!" Bruno wipe away the blood, came out of hiding and began firing arrows, about one or two arrows managed to pierce Nebula Lord's one good eye; completely blinding him.

"AAAAAGGGRH! DAMN HUMAN!" The black dragon cursed as it released a dark aura. Igraine and Bruno were blown back by it and were writhing with pain as they tried to get back up on their feet, but felt as if their body was made of stone. 'It can't... end... like this!' Igraine thought. Nebula Lord Dragon stood up and began sniffing the air. "You cannot hide from me. I can smell your fear." The dragon snarled. Igraine noticed Bruno only several meters away from and began to get up, but dove to the side to avoid Nebula Lord's lashing tail. The dragon was shooting energy blasts everywhere, weakening the structural integrity of the cavern.

Igraine limped towards Bruno's body while also trying not to get impaled by falling stalactites. "Come on Bruno. Wake up! What's wrong with you?!" Igraine tried frantically to figure out what was wrong. Igraine laid her head on Bruno's chest and couldn't feel anything. She couldn't feel his heart beating anymore. She froze(again no pun intended. This is a very serious moment and there is no time for something clever or quipy.) and try to resuscitate him. She pressed his chest and breathed into his mouth. After a few more times of CPR, Bruno came back to life and began gasping for breath. "Oh, thank god! We gotta go NOW!" Igraine ushered. "[groan] What happened?" "Something bad, keep moving." Igraine said. Roars can be heard from Nebula Lord as it was left die as stalactites pierced it's arms, it's foot, tail, and finally it's whole body.

As they entered a cave that led out of the room, but into a cave leading to a dead end. Bruno started to cough up blood uncontrollably and fell to his knees. Igraine caught him and cradled him in her arms. "C'mon Bruno, stay with me!" she said desperately with worry in her eyes. As the ceiling of the cave began shaking and cracking, Igraine didn't feel the wall behind her cracked open a hole where Zoigal bit the back of Igraine's coat and yanked her, along with Bruno out.

As the three escaped the cavern out of the tunnel, snow shot out of the hole, signifying the cave collapsing. As Igraine looked up, she saw the rest of the team standing in front of her with worried expressions. She saw Elixir and immediately stood on her feet relieved. "EL! (I thought I'd give her name other than Elixir Liberator) Please, you gotta help Bruno!" Elixir immediately went to Bruno's side on her knees and began chanting a healing spell as she stabilized his condition.

With a confirmation from Elixir, Igraine sat with her legs at her sides and her shoulders slumped as she breathed a sigh of relief. With a hand on her shoulder, Igraine looked up behind her to see Gorlois with a confident grin with a thumbs up as she returned with a soft smile.
