The War Against Drakath
Chapter 20: The 2nd Lords of Chaos
Once again, I had a rather nasty dream involving Drakath and his plans.
"Hmm, it seems like Escherion is down for the count…looks like I'll need to start selecting my next Lord of Chaos…." Drakath said. "But there are so many willing candidates. Who should I choose?"
Suddenly the twins appeared. "Choose someone cruel!" the evil one said. "No! Choose someone nice!" said the good one.
"How'd you get in my spire?" Drakath exclaimed, apparently quite surprised that the two had gotten in here.
"I am Xing!" said the evil one. "And I am Xang! We are the twins!" said the good one. "We give advice to heroes, villains, and royalty alike!"
"In that case…" Drakath suddenly picked up his sword and swung it at one of the twins. The twin was instantly chaorrupted!
"Now that I have my 2nd Lord of Chaos…or should I say 2nd LORDS of Chaos, how shall I destroy Battleon? There are so many ways I could destroy it…"
"Send a meteor at the town! Wipe them out like the dinosaurs!" Xing said. "No! Send two meteors at the town! Even more destruction will ensue!" Xang said.
"Very well." Drakath picked up his sword, and prepared to cast a spell….
I woke up shortly after that. Drakath was going to destroy Battleon? With chaos meteors? I had to do something! And fast!
I immediately woke up Blackmagic13. "Ugh, this had better be good…" Blackmagic13 said quietly. She must have been cranky from being woken up in the middle of the night. She was wearing black pajamas with skulls on them…of course that would obviously make sense, seeing though she's a rather bad girl…. "It is! Drakath's going to destroy Battleon!" I told her frantically. "WHAT?" Blackmagic13 exclaimed. "There's no time to explain! We have to warn everyone in town!"
With that, we went off running to tell Warlic, as he was the one who had the best chance to stop the meteors. He was just as surprised as Blackmagic13 was when I told her what was going on. He told us that he would call for a meeting in the next morning.
We just hoped that we would be able to stop the meteors on time….and prevent them from destroying Battleon!
Well, like he said, he gathered everyone in town in the morning. "Ladies and gentlemen, I've got terrible news. Drakath has sent two chaotic meteors at Battleon, and he's going to destroy the whole town!" Everyone cried out in fear and concern. "I'll be taking any suggestions to deal with the problem."
As if on cue, a hand popped out of the audience. "Yes, Artix? Come on up, please!" Artix went up to the stage. "I say we build a magical barrier around it!" Artix said to everyone. "We can't! The meteors are too strong for that!" Warlic said to Artix. "Aw man!" Artix pouted.
We got a lot of suggestions, but Warlic dismissed all of them. It seemed like there was nothing we could do to stop the meteors…
That is, until Blackmagic13 came up to the stage. "You guys are all hopeless. Why can't we just move Battleon?" As if on cue, everyone agreed that would be a good idea. "What gave you that idea?" Warlic asked. "It's perfect!"
"I don't know, it just seemed like a good idea." Blackmagic13 said to Warlic. "That settles it. Once we get the necessary materials, we shall cast a moving spell that shall move Battleon!"
I have to admit, Blackmagic13 was smarter than people would expect her to be. Then again, I suppose you have to at least some form of brain in your head if you're going to be a mischevious prankster….
I just hoped that the spell would work and that Battleon would be saved….
But of course, things always have the potential to go wrong…
In the next chapter, the others will try to move Battleon, but will things go right? Please R&R!
