Chapter 23
The Twil Mountains
At the speed and Velocity Draco and Aaron were going, Sabra and Sky were barely able to hold on. "Aaron, Draco slow down a little. You'll fling Sky and I off!" Called Sabra. "Sorry!!" Called Both Draco and Aaron, slowing down a little. A little after 3 hrs, the mountains were in view. "Draco?" Asked Sky. "Yea, Sky?" he replied. "How long would it take approximately to get to the montains by walking?" She asked. Oh, probably 2-3 weeks if you were walking 24/7. Plus, walking is a little more dangerous because you have to go through 2 poisonous swamps and avoid creatures stories high. This way is safer and faster." Explained Draco.
When they reached the mountains, it was just about dusk. They land just below an entrance on a plateau. "We'll sleep for a couple of hours and then we'll set off. We need to be alert when going through this mountain. We'll leave when the moon is high in the sky." Explained Draco as Sky slid off his back. "Gotcha!!" yawned Sabra and laying her head down. Before they knew it, Sabra and Sky were out. "Draco, you get some sleep! I'll guard us all. I can see in the darkness. Besides, you need the sleep so you can get us through this mountain." Said Aaron, standing up. Draco nodded thankfully and slowly dozed off. As soon as Draco was asleep, Aaron created a Dark shield around the plateau and perched himself on the very top of the shield and sat in a meditative position and began to meditate.
After 3-4 hrs after Dusk, Aaron senses a vibration coming from the forest below. The shield stopped any vibration from coming through so the rest of the group from feeling it. Aaron uses his night vision to try to see it, but can't find anything. Draco wakes up and yawns. He looks at his body and it hasn't changed into twilight form. "Wow, he can even keep a twilight from being effected by the moon. His darkness is powerful." Draco muttered to himself. He flew up to Aaron and changed into twilight form. "Do you see anything?" asked Draco. Aaron released his vision and said: "no, but I felt a strange vibration about 5 min ago comin from the forest floor." Just then, they hear a shriek from the forest. "Come on, let's check this out!" said Aaron, creating the darkness armor. "What about the girls?" asked Draco, creating crystal armor. "They'll be fine! The shield will protect them." Said Aaron. "Alright, then. Let's hurry!!" Said Draco, taking off towards the shreik. Aaaron followed closely behind, leaving the girls asleep.
When they reach the source of the Shriek, there is a group of animals huddled close together. "Oh, Crap!!" Exclaimed Draco. "What is it?"Asked Aaron. "That is a group of beasts called Shadow wyverns. They are indeginious to these mountains and quite intelligent. However, they are no match for their Predator, the Bygre. Looks like they are sorrounded." Explained Draco, lowering down to the wyverns and creating a crystal shield around the group. The twilight symbols on Draco's body glow and Aaron feels a ton of energy surge through his body. " What is this power?" asked Aaron. "It's a twilight ability. Any Crystal user within 100 ft of a twilight dragon gains 10x the strength to their crystal attacks." Said Draco, landing on top of the dome of crystal.
"Sweet!! Take this, Bygre!! –slams his fists together- Cryada Neomra!!" Cried Aaron. Aaron slams his fist into a bygre, sending it flying into 20 trees along with 3 other Bygres. Draco Cries: "Genoray stoda!!" a clone of Draco made out of pure crystal appears next to him with a sword. Him and his clone rush and slash all the spiders in front of them. Aaron raises his claws and cries: "Shardar Centora!!" all the spiders around him are bound and slammed to the ground. He then cries: Zeora Nephora!! The lightning surges through the spiders bodies and kills the binded ones. Draco and his clone finish off the ones on his side. Aaron finishes off the last spider by thrusting a dark spear through it. The spider wriggles, then falls over, dead. Draco releases the dome of Crystal around the wyverns and then absorbs his clone and armor. Aaron does the same with his armor.
