Chapter 22
Quest to Twil Mountain
"What I witnessed was a horrific scene! I came to this village looking for the leader to speak with him. When I got here, however, the village was under attack by the dark masters forces!! At the Head of the forces was a Reddish black Dragon with a black staff!! I dropped what I was carrying, created 2 crystal blades and helped anyway I could. After most of the troops had been taken out, I spotted what looked like the Leader of the village and his wife fighting the Dark Dragon. I ran to help them, but was too late for one of them. The Leader was strangled and slashed and the Dark Dragon threw his limp corpse into the wreckage over there. –she pointed to the building where Draco and Luna sat- I managed to block a fire attack aimed at the wife, but it shattered my shield and sent me flying. When I recovered from the blast, the wife was on the ground, slashed up and bleeding profusely. I tried to reach her, but couldn't before the Dragon threw a dark dagger into her stomach and sent her flying into the same wreckage. He then walked off into the portal and some enemies chased me into the hill where we meet." Explained Sky.
"If you don't mind me asking, where did you learn how to manipulate poison? That poison was powerful!!" Asked Aaron. "I was taught by a Dark Dragon named Black Magic!!" Said Sky. "What did you come to this village for?" Asked Sabra. "Well…" Said Sky, but was interuppted by Luna. "Sabra and Aaron, come here and bring your friend!!" Called Luna. They all meet together and Draco stands in the middle. "I must travel to the Twil Mountains and find a Twilight Shard. Who will Join me?" Asked Draco. Aaron and Sabra step forward along with Sky. Draco holds his claws out. "Wait a minute! Who are you?" Inquired Draco. "My name is Sky and I'm a crystal Dragon." Said Sky, stepping forward. "Are you powerful, Sky? The Beasts in these mountains are no pushovers." Said Draco. "Why don't you find out?" Said Sky, creating 2 blades of Crystal.
Draco creates 2 blades as well and charges at Sky. Draco sends both his blades down on Sky, but Sky blocks both of his attacks and no matter how hard he pressed on her, he couldn't get his blades farther. Sky slashes at him, but he dodges it and swings at her Again, only to be blocked again by her blades. Sky slashes at him again and manages to cut him on the Arm. He growls and flies backwards. He creates a set of crystal spikes and hucks them at her. She creates a shield to stop them and send them back at him. He barely manages to dodge them. When he lands from the Dodge however, she cries out: Ceryay Nogorpha!! A rain of crystals falls on Draco and pins him to a standing wall. Sky powers down and the crystals holding Draco dissolve. "You're impressive!! Not many Dragons can beat me that easily. You are free to come with us." Said Draco, healing his scratch. "Thanks!!" Said Sky. "Luna, take this and take my mother and everyone else back to the temple. We'll be back in 24 hrs or less." Said Draco, throwing Luna the Portal key. Luna nodded and went through the portal. Everyone followed, Daire carrying Dusk.
Before they leave, Draco sets fire to the village. "At least they can get a proper funeral." Whispered Draco to himself. Draco and Aaron open their Wings and Sabra and Sky hop onto their Backs and they take off towards the Twil Mountains.l
