Dark Sorcerer and the Blade of Light
Chapter 13
Race to the Land of the Polonians
After Raguna received a startling vision regarding Mist, the two had to reevaluate their relationship with each other. Despite this, they continued moving onward to catch up to the rest of the gang, who were hurriedly trying to beat the Dark Sorcerer to the Jungle of Caracan.

"It should be just over that pass!" Ventuswill said as she spotted daunting mountains and sped up,
"Let's go!" Brodik cheered as they all raced to the finish.
00000000
"Huh?" the Dark Sorcerer, who was traveling on foot, muttered as he heard the whoosh of the Dragons as they flew overhead, "Grr!" he yelled, "Damn them! Everyone! Double pace!" he told his elites, and they all started to dash.
00000000
"Woah!" Iris said as Ventuswil gained elevation, passing over the mountain range,
"Welcome to the Lost Jungle of Caracan!" Fiersome said as they passed the ridge, revealing a lush, fertile jungle valley with a huge waterfall at the eastern most extreme.
"The site of the Capital of the State of the Polonic Order!" Aquaticus added, "The Legendary Knights of Polonia resided here long ago!"
"Woah..." Mei mumbled as she saw ruins popping out of the jungle, but only one caught her eye,
"Is that..." Sharron muttered as she saw a huge structure resembling a mix between the Hagia Sophia and a Mesoamerican pyramid in the center of this valley, a huge rainbow came out of it's top.
"That's the Sealed Palace." Fiersome informed, "The gate between this world and the dimension in which the Great Evil resides."
"Where's Raguna and them?" Camus asked,
"Terrable is close." Aquaticus answered, "He should be here in a few minutes."
SHWWEOOOO! A huge dark blast shot from the ground.
00000000
"RAH!" Terrable roared as he was struck, then started to spiral down,
"Woah!" Raguna yelled,
"AH!" Mist screamed as they were rocketing to the jungle,
"Mist! Hold on!" Raguna grabbed her tight,
"HAH!" Terrable groaned and regained control, "It must have been that Sorcerer!" he roared in rage and looked for the perpetrator.
Surely enough, crossing the pass, was the Sorcerer, his staff held high,
"Welcome to the Paradise of Caracan!" the Sorcerer laughed, "I will be your guide!" he yelled and blasted and another round,
"WAH!" Terrable gasped,
"Terrable, watch out!" Raguna said and jumped off, then reflected the attack with his sword.
KRAK! A part of the blade of the Sword of Oracles snapped off,
"Wah!" Raguna said in shock,
"RAGUNA!" Terrable growled and managed to catch the falling hero in his talons,
"It broke!" Raguna yelled, "Mist! It broke!"
"Hahahahaha!" The Dark Sorcerer laughed, "So much for the Hero!"
"You have to go!" Ventuswill came to their aid, "We'll hold them off!"
"Go where!?" Terrable told her, "We can't reinforce the seal! The Sword broke!"
"What!?" Aquaticus yelled,
"What do you mean the sword broke!?" Fiersome exploded,
"Raguna!" Sharron called out to the Hero, "Remember what Aden said! Take it to the Polonians!"
"But the Polonians are dead, girl!" Fiersome told her, "There are no more of them!"
"It's worth something!" Terrable growled, seeing the Sorcerer laughing at their argument, "I know where to go! Hold them off!" he said and retreated.
"Will do!" Ventuswill said and started attacking the Sorcerer's force.

"We'll get nowhere if we stay hiding here..." the Dark Sorcerer growled, hiding behind the great stone cliff face of the pass, trying to save his army from the Divine Dragon assault.
"Rah! Rah!" a monster came up to him, then signaled a digging motion,
"What?" the Dark Sorcerer muttered,
"RAH!" the monster, which was a dark Moleman, dug under the earth, making a tunnel.
"Ah! Genius!" the Dark Sorcerer said, "Everyone! Help make this tunnel!" he ordered the other monsters.
And one by one, the monsters entered the tunnel...
