Raru adventure
chapter 8
disclaimer: I don't own adventure quest or slayers
but my playing character on battleon is Raru kayori
a life at stake
when Peta looked around, he saw that all three of them were back in the center of town, he hear murmurs of shock and screams. The screaming he could not
understand until he felt something fall against his chest as he looked at Raru.
He felt like a icicle was piercing his heart, Raru was laying limply in his arms cold as death with black blotches on her skin that seem to be spreading, while her
skin had turned a chalky gray the thing that scared Peta was the fact that Raru wasn't breathing. Xarymandias knelt down by peta,
"she's been poisoned I am amazed that she held out until we got here. Peta began to shake Raru. "Raru wake up if you die I will never let it go RARU,RARU you
better live!" people began gathering around "oh my god Raru is severly wounded"
"she saved Lore's greatest mage but she is dying" Xarymadias had enough of the chattering he snapped "someone get Artix, Twilly and Warlic" some of the
people that Raru had rescued from the tower dashed off in different directions to find help. As they vanished, he held Raru close to his body so he could keep
her body from going into shock.
Xarymandias and Peta looked at the wounds that Raru had received; slash marks covered her arms and bruises from water bullet spells, the slashed parts of
her robe there were wounds that wouldn't stop bleeding, burns from elemental doom spells and punctured skin from stone spikier spells. Xarymandia was
impressed
"this girl is amazing I have never known anyone to come up with the strategy to defeat Silla and free everyone else who was trapped and your help is greatly
appreciated but we must focus on saving Raru's life right now." He placed his hand on her forehead and began focusing his magic into keeping her alive. "she
seems to be suffering from dark acid poisoning the symptoms are black blotchs that spread across the skin and if it covers the entire victims body, they will turn
to ash" as he said those words Peta felt a well of panic,
"I may be a powerful mage but this is something that I can't heal even with warlic's help"
footsteps could be heard as someone shouted "Warlics here so are twilly and Artix" the three mentioned hurried over
Warlic greeted his old friend then asked "my student saved you" Xarymandias nodded "you taught her well but if we don't do something we will lose her"
Artix was already healing the wounds caused by spells along with twilly.
"I am trying Artix but I can't heal those blotchs, there must be a way to slow the process down"Twilly cried, Warlic stood up "I will encase Raru in a crystal that
may slow down the acid effect but it won't erase it Raru has a strange ability to heal but it only is affective if she had a previous encounter with the same
injury". Warlic stood up and turned to xarymandia " I will need your help"
Peta clung tightly to Raru shaking his head
"no don't touch her" he was yanked up roughly by Blackhawk eye
"kid there is nothing you can do right now leave this to the two mages"
Peta struggled to yank his arm away but was unable to get back to Raru
As he was lead away.
Warlic and Xaryman (shortened the name to make it easier) focused their power on raru's Body.
a blue light engulfed her.
Meanwhile Peta was trying to escape from Blackhawk but might as well try to fight his way out of a box made of iron. Blackhawk forced Peta to look at him. "if
you want to help her wait for Warlic to call you"
meanwhile in the forest of Drakovia
a vampire hurried into the throne room with a scroll clutched in his hands
"my lady there is some grave news"
Safira looked up "what is it" she sounded like she was very tired
The vampire who was a servant handed the scroll to her while answering
"Raru Kayori hangs in a life and death struggle she was injured from Dark acid poison" Safira stood up abruptly "my plans will be ruined if she dies send a spy to
see what is happening"
at Battleon
when the light faded Raru's body was incased in a huge sapphire gem. Warlic smiled sadly at the sleeping face of his student. "Raru you did well but I should
have taught you more" suddenly he stiffened as a foreign voice was heard in his head. "Wa…lric….help …..still…alive' he looked around
"who said that" the voice sounded again this time tired and cranky ' its…me..Raru…' suddenly he realized who was talking in his head
"Raru! Your alive that is good to know" Raru's voice sounded very weak
'but ….time is running out… get Peta here, Xarmadia too can he research the antidote?..I must rest' the voice faded.
He glanced at the gem that Raru was encased in
She looked like a mythical sea creature.
He hurried from his shop
"we have a race to save Raru's life"
