Sorry for the wait, life has been busy, school has been a lot, and I had two big chapters to do one for my Fire Emblem Awakening of Galrain Trainers, and the other Trainer of Vesperia. Pulse, I've been playing Legends of Arceus, and I will probably not add anything from that game into this story, if I do it's based on a "why not" feeling. Finally I posted the first three chapters of my She-ra Story. Now Chapter 16.
Chapter 16
Fire, Sun, and Fury
A Forest Area Of Katolis
Under the night sky, in a forest, in a rock formation, in a cave. The gang was asleep, with Reuniclus and Bisharp in their Pokeballs, and with Callum and Bait the only ones awake. What they were doing was Callum was sitting on the edge of the cave, rolling the cube at Bait like it was a dics. "What do you think this thing is, anyway?" Callum asked Bait, as he looked at the sky symbole. "He said it was a key, but a key to what?" Callum asked Bait, as Rayla got up and walked to him.
"You practicing Magic or are you losing to Bait at a game of rolly-cubes?" Rayla asked Callum, as she walked to him, and sat next to him. "Magic. I think I'm getting 's so much swirling around in my head, but I need a way to bring it all together." Callum said to Rayla. "Like some kind of breakthrough?" Rayla asked Callum. "Yeah." Callum said to Rayla, holding the cube to Rayla, making it shine the moon symbol
"What about you? You were born with the Moon Arcanum." Callum asked Rayla. "Uh, I suppose so?" Rayla said to Callum. "So when you do cool moon powers, you're connecting the moon, right? What does that feel like?" Callum asked Rayla. "Uh, I don't really think about it. I'm just standing in the light of the full moon, and then there's a feeling like…" Rayla said before waving her arms around and making a whoosh noise. "And then there's a sort of… ting! And then.." Rayla said before standing up in a second. "Moonshado Powers!" Rayla said to Callum, as her voice echoed.
"Does that help?" Rayla asked Clalum, looking at him. "No, not at all. But I enjoyed it." Callum said to Rayla. They both smiled at this.
Meanwhile Soren and Claudia were riding their horses to a nearby town, with Corvus and Staraptor still chained together, with Corvus' wrist tied up and walking behind. "Once we're in town, we can ditch Corvus and his bird in jail or something and be done with them." Soren said to Claudia. "We're so far off Callum and Ezran's trail now. Do you think we can catch up with them?" Claudia asked Soren. "Of course we can! We Promised Dad." Soren said to Claudia.
"You know, we could help you track them, if you unite us." Corvus said to Soren and Claudia. This made Soren laugh. "No, no, no, no. If I untie you and your bird, you're just gonna try and escape, while your bird attacks us. Afain." Soren said to Corvus, pulling Corvus close to him. "No, not this time. This time will be different. I promise." Corvus said to Soren, holding up his arms. Soren thought about it. "No!" Claudia said to Soren.
Then Soren realized Corvus was lying. "Hey, hey! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, back to you again." Soren said to Corvus, getting in Corvus' face. "That's not how it goes." Corvus said to Soren. "Shame on you." Soren said to Corvus, before he started to pull Corvus and Staraptor into the town.
Back with the others, Callum was passing, with Rayla sitting next to Bait. "I have to be a mage again. We sawa dragon in the clouds yesterday. Things will only get tougher once we get into Xadia. And crossing the border? That's going to be crazy dangerous." Callum said to Rayla. "Eh, well… maybe not." Rayla said to Callum.
"There's a river of lava! And the Frozen Throne is weeks away, if we walk! And even if we reach the Throne, I'm sure Elves are waiting on the other side of it! One does not simply walk into Xadia." Callum said to Rayla. "Actually, One does simply walk into Xadia. There's a secret path, the Moonstone Path. It'll be safe and easy, even for you, magic or no magic." Rayla said to Callum, standing up and placing a hand on Callum's shoulder. "Come get some rest." Rayla said to Callum, making Callum sigh.
"You're right. Let's go back to sleep." Callum said to Rayla. Then he, Rayla, and Bait started to move to the other. But as they walked, Bait saw the shadow of the dragon in the night sky and got nervous, and then ran to the others.
Back with Soren, Claudia, Corvus, and Staraptor, they made it to the city entrance. In the town was a large ballista tower. "Excuse me. Excuse me. We're looking for a town jail? We've got a horrible traitor to lock up for us, traitorous words and deeds. Standard traitor stuff." Soren asked as they walked through a crowd. But the crowd wasn't paying attention to Soren. "Excuse me? Crownguard here." Soren said to the crowd.
"Oh, something's weird." Claudia said to Soren. "I know! No one's listening to me." Soren said to Claudia. "What?" Claudia Asked Soren, not listening to Soren either. "There! It's back." A knight said, as everyone looked up to see the dragon in the sky. "Is that…" Claudia asked Soren. "A dragon?" Soren asked.
Then the dragon flew out of the cloud, revealing a red dragon with gold lines on the upper part of it's head going to the three horns it had on each side of it's head, and a grey circle in between it's eyes. The dragon flew close to the city, making the people panic a little. "Yeah, it's the third night in a row it's flown over us." A male knight said to Soren. "And you haven't shot it down yet? What are those ballistas for?" Soren asked the knights.
"Well, it hasn't attacked us." A female knight said to Soren. "So? It's the enemy. I'm taking command here. Crownguard, I might have mentioned." Soren said to the knights. Then the knights moved up the tower and got ready for battle with the dragon, with Soren taking Corvus and Staraptor with him. "Hold on! The dragon isn't attacking. It's just trying to intimidate us." Corvus said to Soren, making Soren scoff. "Well, then, I'll just have to show it that humans won't be intimidated." Soren said to Corvus, as he and the dragons locked eyes for a few seconds.
Soren gave Corvus and Staraptor rope, and got ready to shoot a ballista. "Soren, please. Don't start a fight you can't finish." Corvus said to Soren. But Soren didn't listen and fired the Ballista. But it missed and hit one of the town's wall towers. Then the Dragon flew into the clouds. "Ha! See? Scared it off. Dragon problem solved." Soren said to Corvus. "Star, star, staraptor." Staraptor said to Soren, shaking his head no. Then they heard a loud dragon roar and the dragon started to attack Soren.
Meanwhile, this woke up the gang. "Okay? What was that?" Drake asked everyone. "Oh, no. I know that sound. That's not a good sound." Rayla said to everyone, as she got up and ran out of the cave. "What's going on? Because it sounds bad?" Allen asked Rayla as they all followed her. But Ezran stopped Zym. "Wait, we don't know if it's safe out there. Bait, Rockruff, stay with Zym." Ezran said to Zym, Bait, Rockruff, before running to the others. This made Zym sad.
Back in the town, the dragon was mad, and got ready to burn the tower down with it's fire breath. "Get down!" Soren said to everyone, before the dragon breathed fire onto the ballista, then starting to burn the part of the town, and leave a trail of fire in the street.
Meanwhile, the gang could see the fire, but that's it. "What's it doing here? Why is it attacking that town?" Callum asked everyone. "Uh, I don't know." Rayla said to Callum. "But something tells me, an idiot tried to pick a fight with it." Drake said to everyone.
And that idiot was Soren. And as he and everyone with him got up, and heard the people in the town scream. "Don't just stand there! Get on those ballistas!" Soren ordered the knights. "It's circling back. Get ready to fire." Soren said to the knights. Then the knights ready the ballistas. "Fire!" Soren said to the knights. And while they fired the ballistas, the Dragon dodged the attacks, and breathed another stream of fire onto two of the ballistas, leaving one, and destroying part of the tower.
Soren then moved to Claudia, Corvus, and Staraptor. Soren then pulled out his sword. "Soren!" Claudia said to Soren. "What are you…" Corvus asked Soren, but stopped and raised his arms, as Soren swung his sword down. But instead of hurting Corvus, he cut the rope on his wrist. "I don't understand." Corvus asked Soren, as Soren put his sword.
"These people need help. Get as many as you and Staraptor can to safety." Soren said to Corvus. Corvus then unchained himself and Staraptor, and started to get up. "Don't get yourself killed." Corvus said to Soren, before he and Staraptor left. Then Soren looked at the damage his idea did.
"I think I really messed up this time, Clauds. I… I don't know how to stop it." Soren said to Claudia. "Don't say that yet. I have an idea." Claudia said to Soren, as she pulled out a box. "It's the eye of a gryphon. With this, I can enchant a ballista bolt to never miss its target, no matter what." Claudia said to Soren, showing him what was in the box, needless to say, it freaked him out.
"So you just carry a gryphon eyeball around with you? Who does that?" Soren asked Claudia. "Oh, how about, "Thanks you for carrying a gryphon's eye with you, Claudia. You're so prepared. You're the best"." Claudia said to Soren. "Thank you, Claudia." Soren said to Claudia, not wanting to. Claudia didn't accept it. "You're the best!" Soren said to Claudia. Claudia cuchekd and ran to the last ballista.
As Soren aimed the ballista, Claudia chanted her spell, and the ballista bolt glowed purple. When the dragon got close enough, Claudia fired the ballista bolt. And while the dragon dodged the ballista bolt, freaking Soren out a little. The ballista bolt gained purple wings and turned around. The dragon then burned the top of the tower off, before it's attention was on the ballista bolt that was swarming around it like a bee. Then the ballista bolt hit the left side of the dragon.
The gang saw this and gasped. "They hit it!" Rayla said to everyone. "And it's coming down on us." Kali said to everyone, as she, Drake, Allen, and the Pokemon got down on the ground. "Get down!" Rayla said, as she forced Ezran and Callum down to the ground. The dragon flew past them, and they watched as it crashed hard into the forest nearby. But then they noticed Ezran was hightailing it to the dragon. "Ezran!" Callum said to Ezran. "Come on!" Drake said, as everyone went after Ezran.
As the sun started to rise, Ezran reached the dragon, and saw its eyes were closed. That's when everyone reached Ezran. "Is it dead?" Callum asked everyone. This made Drake look at Callum with a mean look and slap the back of Callum's head. "Ow." Callum said, as Ezran walked to the dragon. Once Ezran reached the dragon, he placed his hands on the dragon, and the dragon groaned softly and opened its eyes.
The Castle In Katolis
Meanwhile Viren returned to the Castle, after his Pentarchy failed. Viren got off his horse and started to walk away, feeling down in the bumps, and didn't notice Opeli and Chimecho walking to him, with his letters in hand and a mean look on their faces. "How dare you?" Opeli said to Viren, making Viren stop and turn to Opeli. "You used King Harrow's seal to summon the Pentarchy and then you lied to them. You called yourself the Regent of Katolis. You committed treason, Viren, and for what?" Opeli asked Viren, as Viren didn't look at her. "For nothing." Viren said to Opeli before walking away. "You'll be removed from the Council for this, and you'll be lucky if that's all." Opeli said to Viren.
A Forest Area Of Katolis
Back with the gang, they were looking at the dragon. "You're in pain. Don't worry. We can help you." Ezran said to the dragon. The dragon breathed heavily, and looked at Ezran. Ezran then moved to the side of the dragon. "There! Beneath her wing." Ezran said to everyone. "Come on then, let's give this lady a hand." Drake said to everyone, as everyone moved around the dragon to her wing, letting the dragon see them. But Callum stopped when he saw the dragon's eyes.
"Come on. Help me." Rayla said to Callum. Callum then slowly helped Rayla, Allen hold the wing up, while Drake, Kali and Ezran moved to the ballista bolt, with all the Pokemon trying to comfort the dragon. Drake then put his staff through the hole on the ends of the ballista bolt, as Ezran grabbed the ballista bolt itself. Then the two of them pulled the ballista bolt out of the dragon.
This made the dragon raise her head a little and look at everyone, as Kali used her magic to ease the pain, and Drake tossed the ballista bolt to the ground. Then they heard a horse neighing. Then they saw a group of knights walking to them. "We got company." Drake said, as he, Allen, and Rayla got ready to fight. "What are you doing?" Callum asked them. "What does it look like?" Allen asked Callum. "The humans are coming. We have to protect her." Rayla said to Callum.
"We can't fight them." Callum said to them. "Sure we can." Drake said to Callum. "I can't just leave her." Rayla said to Callum. "Callum's right. And we have to get back to Zym." Ezran said to them. "We did what we could." Callum said to them, as he and Ezran started to move. "Come on!" Callum said to them, and with a groan everyone else started to move, but not before Drake took the ballista bolt with him.
Everyone then moved behind some bushes and trees, and saw Claudia and Soren leading the humans. "Those two! They must have been the one that hurt her." Drake said, as his grip tightening on his staff. Then Rayla, Allen, and Drake tried to charge at them, but Callum stopped them. And while they left, Rayla, Allen, and Drake hated the fact they did.
Then Claudia and Soren reached the dragon. "I always thought it'd be you who took down a dragon, not me." Claudia said to Soren. "Huh?" Soren asked Claudia. "I mean, wasn't this one of your life goals? Slaying a dragon?" Claudia asked Soren. "Yes." Soren said to Claudia. "Huh. It's funny, because I don't really care about it. But…" Claudia said to Soren, as she pointed to the dragon and him.
"I think it's dead, but we can't be too sure." Soren said to Claudia, as he moved to the dragon and kicked her to see if she was dead. "Secure the dragon!" Soren said to the knights. The Knights then pulled out chains and started to tie up the dragon.
Back with the others, they made it back to their cave, and Drake tossed the ballista bolt over the edge when they got there. "Zym! Zym, are you okay? Rockruff, Bait, where are you?" Ezran asked, as they looked around the cave. Then Zym, Rockruff, and Bait popped out from behind a rock. Then Zym and Rockruff jumped into Ezran's arms. Callum then noticed Rayla, Kali, Allen, and Drake looking in the direction of the dragon.
"I should have done something." Rayla said to everyone. "We all should have." Kali said to everyone. "Guys, you four are always the one who reminds us that the only thing that matters is getting Zym back to Xadia. Why are you four hesitating now?" Callum asked them. "One, we say that because you have a hard time staying on tasks. And two we're hesitating because we just left there at the hands of the people that probably attacked her and shot her down. Who knows what they'll do to her." Allen said to Callum.
The Castle In Katolis
Back with Viren, he was walking to the room with the mirror in it. That's when Gren and Chatot noticed him. "Welcome back! I hope you had a pleasant trip." Gren said to Viren, as he now had a bit of a bird going on. "How can you possibly remain so cheerful in your dire circumstances?" Viren asked Gren. "Well, talking to Chatot helps. And I think about it like this, why see myself as chained down, when I can be chained up?" Gren said to Viren. "Think positive. Think positive." Chatot said to Viren. "I admire your tenacity. Even if some of it comes from a Pokemon." Viren said to Gren, before walking into the room with the mirror in it.
In that room Viren looked at the items he left out and the mirror. Viren then looked at his hands for a few seconds. "I have nothing left to lose." Viren said, as he took the cloth off the mirror.
A Forest Area Of Katolis
Back in the forest, the knights finished chaining the dragon up with chains and ropes, and a few chains and ropes over it to keep her from moving. Watching this was Soren, who was standing next to Claudia, while Claudia was looking through her spell book. "There's so many things we can do with a dragon. There's even a chapter about spells that use dragon snot. It's some powerful goo." Claudia said to Soren, grossing Soren out a little.
"We don't have the Dragon Prince, but do you think if we brought this dragon home, Dad would…" Claudia said to Soren. "It's something, but… it does weigh, I don't know, about a million tons? How are we gonna move it?" Soren asked Claudia. "In pieces." Claudia said to Soren, closing her book.
"I don't get it, guys. Why are you four so worried about a dragon that just set fire to a town?" Callum asked them. "I don't think it's that simple." Kali said to Callum. "What makes you say that?" Callum asked Kali. "That mark on her head." Kali said to Callum. "Mark? You mean that grey circle in between her eyes?" Allen asked Kali. "Yes. That mark means she is a young dragon, and is a part of the Dragon Queen's Gray Dragonflight." Kali said to Allen.
"The what?" Drake asked Kali. "The Grey Dragonflight. Basically The Dragon Queen, Zym's mother, wanted to teach young dragons about the great Gray Dragon, her hope was that this Gray Dragonflight would help her husband and child with protecting the peace. But while she was away, the humans attacked and you know the rest of the story." Kali said to Drake.
"If that's the case. Then why was she out this far?" Callum asked Kali. "Maybe she was following the image the Gray Dragon left, trying to keep the peace by intimation. Chances are she's been around for a while, just trying to scare people so they would do anything." Kali said to Callum. "And that probably worked until a fool like Sorne came along and picked a fight with her. Serious fighting a dragon. What was that boy thinking?" Allen asked everyone.
"Well, I've been thinking about something. Something someone once told me. About how when one person hurts another, then that person hurts them back, it becomes a cycle that never ends." Rayla said to Callum. "Who told you that?" Callum asked Rayla. "You did." Rayla said to Callum. "Oh." Callum said.
"But, Callum, to break that cycle, someone has to take a stand when no one else will." Rayla said to Callum. "And that someone is us." Allen said to Callum. "You're both right. If we're really going to change things, we can't just watch while humans and Xadia keep hurting each other. But how do I take a stand? Believe me, I want to go down there with you four, and be the heroes who stops all the fighting and saves the day, But I can't do that. I can't do anything!" Callum said to everyone, before turning away and walking away.
But Rayla reached out and grabbed Callum's right arm. "It's okay, Callum. We're not asking you to come with us. Protecting that dragon doesn't just feel like the right thing to do, it feels like the right thing for us to do. It's where we're meant to be." Rayla said to Callum, jester to her, Kali, Allen, and Drake. "And Callum, that talk is why you can't do anything. When me and Drake were young we had to fight a group of people trying to take everyone's Pokemon away. And even though we just started our journey, we never backed down from fighting them, and it was that courage and will that allowed us to win the fight against them." Allen said to Callum.
"And that's the secret for doing what's right. Not behind the best at something. You just have to stand up for what you believe in." Drake said to Callum. "And right now that dragon needs our help and we can't turn our back on her." Kali said to Callum.
"We're going back down there." Rayla said to Callum, as she and the others looked at the forest. "If we don't come back, You and Ezran can get Zym to Xadia. I believe in you." Rayla said to Callum, before she, Allen, Drake, Kali, Gligar, and Fomantis jumped off the edge and into the forest. "Wati! Guys!" Callum said to them, but they didn't listen to him, and he had to watch them leave.
A few minutes later, as the sky went grey, Rayla, Allen, Drake, Kali, Gligar, and Fomantis, plus Leavanny and Accelgor with them, were hiding behind some bushes and looking at the dragon, with the hoodies up and over their heads. They saw all the chains and ropes on her and knights surrounding her. "Okay. First we need to get those chains off her." Drake said to everyone. "I can do that with my Sunforge Dagger, but I need to get close." Kali said to everyone. "I'll clear a path for you and be a distaction." Rayla said to Kali, pulling out her blades.
"Are you sure?" Allen asked Rayla. "It doesn't matter what happens to me. Live or die, this drago goes home." Rayla said to Allen. "Well you're our friend, and we care. So try and stay alive. In fact, let's all try and stay alive." Allen said to Rayla. "Okay, while the girls get closer to the dragon, me, Allen, and the Pokemon will stay here and be ready to move if anything happens." Drake said to everyone.
Then Rayla took the lead, and moved behind a rock, tapped on the armor of the knight on the other side of the rock, making the knight turn around, and get punched in the face. Rayla then pulled the knight over the rock, and Kali moved to Rayla. Then Rayla jumped over the rock, and threw the knight's weapons into the head of another knight, knocking the knight out. Kali then moved from behind the rock and the two girls reached the dragon, and while Rayla started to cut a rope, Kali pulled out her Sunforge Dagger and started to cut one of the chains.
After cutting the first chain and rope, they moved onto the second chain and rope. And they cut those two with no trouble and moved onto the third chain and rope. But when they got ready to cut it, Soren banged his sword against one of the uncut chains. This made the girls notice Soren and some knights standing in front of them.
"Ugh, this guy again. Of course." Rayla said to Kali. "You were expecting some other kind of fool to be here?" Kali asked Rayla, making Rayla giggle a little, while rolling her eyes. "A dead dragon and two dead elves all in one day. Everything's coming up Soren." Soren said to Kali and Rayla, before he charged at them.
But then before he reached them, Drake came flying out of nowhere and kicked Soren in the side, making him roll over the dragon. Before any of the other knights could reach, Allen, Gligar, Fomantis, Leavanny, and Accelgor started to fight them. "We'll handle the knights. You finish cutting the dragon free." Drake said to Rayla and Kali, as he jumped over the dragon. "Don't worry we got this." Kali said to Drake, holding up her Sunforge Dagger.
But then an arrow came out of nowhere and hit Kali's Sunforge Dagger, forcing it out of her hands, and also making her lose sight of it. That's when they noticed more knights arriving, one with a bow and arrows. "Okay maybe not." Kali said to everyone, as Rayla got ready to fight the knights, and Kali stayed low to the ground and looked for Sunforge Dagger.
Meanwhile back with Princes. Zym and Ezran were rubbing their heads together, with Bait and Rockruff laying in the sun, and Callum drawing in his sketchbooks with Yanma on his head. "What are you doing?" Ezran asked Callum. "I'm just drawing, Ezran." Callum said, with a little mean tune in his voice. "You seem upset?" Ezran asked Callum. "Yep. I draw when I'm upset." Callum said as he drew, Allen, Kali, Drake, and Rayla, fighting back to back, and putting a lit more details into Rayla's drawing then the others in the drawing. Callum but Clalum got more frustrated as he drew the drawing, and broke his chuck.
This made him angry, and he threw his sketchbook down to the ground. And doing this made it turn to a page of Claudia reading from her Dark Magic spell book. This gave Callum an idea, and he picked up his sketchbook. "Maybe there is something I can do." Callum said before closing his sketchbook. "Ezran, you have to stay here Protect Bait and Zym with Rockruff." Callum said to Ezran, walking past him, before running with Yanma. Zym tried to follow them.
"Hey!" Ezran said to Zym, as Rockruff jumped in front Zym stopping him from going after Callum. "Don't worry, Zym. We're gonna have fun while they're gone. Why don't we play a game?" Ezran asked Zym, as he walked in front of Zym. This made Zym squawk.
Back with everyone else, while it was starting to rain, they fought off the knights. "Leavanny use Leaf Blade, while I use Dragon Breath." Allen said to Lavanny, as he pointed his staff at a knight, and fired a burst of teal of energy at the knight, sending the knight flying. "Leavanny." Leavanny said, as her arms glowed green, and became longer curve blades. Leavanny then clashed swords with a knight.
"Fomantis, give me some cover with Razor Leaf." Kali said to Fomantis, as she crawled on the ground looking for her Sunforge Dagger. "Fomantis." Fomantis said as she fired sharp leaves at some knights, making them stay back and away from Kali.
"Gligar use Metal Claw." Rayla said to Gligar, as she locked weapons with a knight. "Gligar." Gligar said, as her claws turned silver and she rammed them into the knights gut, denting the knights armor, and making him fall to the ground, dropping his weapon, and placing his arms over his gut. Rayla and Gligar then left kight and went to fight someone else.
To try and give the knight a chance to win, Claudia put her bag down and pulled out another tentacle and started to cast a spell. "Oh no you don't Accelgor used Sludge Bomb and get Soren off me." Drake said to Accelgor. "Accelgor." Accelgor said as he shot a ball of sludge at Soren's face, covering Soren's head in sludge. And even with the rain help, Soren still had to rub the sludge off his head.
"Fusion Bolt!" Drake said, as he threw his staff at Claudia. Then his staff started to generate a large amount of electricity, and when it hit the ground right next to Claudia, it caused a massive burst of energy to send Claudia flying and drop her tentacle. "What do you think of that move? I was saving that for your old man, but I guess I could use it on you as well." Drake said to Claudia, as he ran to get his staff.
But after Drake got his staff back, Soren finished whipping off the sludge on him and got back to fighting Drake. "Thunder Punch!" Drake said, as the tip of his staff became wrapped into electricity.
Then Rayla and Gligar finished another knight and jumped onto the back of the dragon and tried to break the chains still on her. Soren noticed this while trying to dodge Drake staff, with the tip of Drake's staff still covered in electricity. "Ooh, yeah. The thing about chains? They're made of metal. Hard to cut." Soren said to Rayla, forgetting Drake, and getting hit in the gut by Drake's staff, sending him flying back a little.
"Not if I find my dagger." Kali said, as she looked around, and another knight started to fight Drake. Kali then noticed a small pillar of steam. "There it is!" Kali said, as she crawled to her Sunforge. A knight with a bow and arrow noticed her and was ready to put an arrow into her head. Allen noticed this. "Dragon Breath." Allen said, as he pointed his staff at the knight, and fired a burst of teal energy from it. The energy hit the knight in the side and sent the knight flying.
But the knight was able to fire the Arrow. "KALI!" Allen yelled as he jumped in front of Kali and took the arrow into his left shoulder for her. This caused Allen to roll a little bit, breaking most of the arrow, but leaving the arrow head and a little of the stick in him. "Allen!" Kali said, as she ignored her Sunforge Dagger, and ran to Allen side. Kali then pulled Allen close to her. "Allen are you okay?" Kali asked Allen. "Oh I'm fine. Just a little sore and stretched up a little." Allen said to Kali.
"Why did you take that arrow for me?" Kali asked Allen. "Cause while you may not care about me that much. I care about you and we're friends, and I look out for my friends. And it would be a shame if that pretty face was ruined by an arrow that I could have stopped." Allen said to Kali, as he looked at the arrow in him, missing Kali blushing at him. "Really Allen? Flirting with an elf. Have no pride as a human?" Soren asked Allen, as he walked to Allen and Kali.
"If having pride as a human means picking a fight with every race that's not human. Then I'll gladly be prideless." Allen said to Soren, as he stood up. But the arrow in this shoulder caused him to place his staff in his left hand and hold onto his right. Doing this made Allen lean to the left a little. Kali stood up and placed a hand on Allen's left shoulder, trying to keep him straight. "Looks like this is the end for you two." Soren said to Allen and Kali.
But then a flurry of sharp leaves came flying at Soren, making Soren use his sword to block the leaves from hitting his face. When Soren lowered his word, he noticed Fomantis standing between him, Kali, and Allen. "Fomantis." Fomantis said with a strong tune in her voice. "Oh really and what can you do?" Soren asked Fomantis.
Fomantis then fired a ball of light into the sky above. This made the clouds above them turn into a bright warm sunny day. "Oh, so you change the weather. I'm so scared." Soren said to Fomantis, as Kali used this sunlight to pull the arrow out of Allen's left shoulder and heal him. "Fomantis." Fomantis said to Soren, getting angry with Soren and glowing bought blue.
Fomantis started to grow, almost 3 feet tall, with her legs being the reason for the new height, her arms became longer almost mantis like, her body became skinny and it looked like she gain a little bit a flap that went over the sides of her legs pulse a small neck, her head now had four flaps on it one on each side of her head and the other two parallel on top of her head, two small antenna, a small bump, and a X shape on her back. Then when the light faded, it relieved her new red, white, and pink color.
"She's evolved into a Lurantis." Allen said to Kali. "She's so pretty." Kali said, looking at her Pokemon with wonder in her eyes. "Should I really be afraid of something that small and pink?" Soren asked Allen. "She may be small and pink, but she's dangerous. Here." Allen said, pulling out his Pokedex.
Lurantis / Bloom Sickle Pokemon / Grass Type / The Petals on this Pokemon's arms are thin and super sharp, and they can fire laser beams if Lurantis gathers light first.
"Oh please like she can do that." Soren said to Allen, as Allen put his Pokedex away. "Lurantis!" Lurantis said getting madder with Soren, and raising her right arm into the sky. Then light started to gather in her right arm at high speed. It didn't take long before her right arm started to glow and a giant sword of green energy burst out of her right arm.
This made Soren wide-eyed. "Soren this is Lurantis sigure move. Solar Blade. A move that can turn sunlight into a giant razor sharp blade. So now would be a good time to run." Allen said to Soren, as Lurantis brought down her giant sword onto Soren. Soren tried to block it with his sword, and stepped back a bit. But the Solar Blade cut through Soren's sword, leaving it at a right angle pyramid tip, and after cutting threw his blade, it cut the edge of Soren's armor, leaving a noticeable stretch on it. "Lurantis!" Lurantis said, getting into a fighting stance.
"Looks like Lurantis isn't back down, and neither am I." Rayla said to everyone. "None of us are." Drake said to everyone. "Alright then. you're going down!" Soren said to Rayla and Drake. "Try not to kill them, Soren. "She can lead us to Ezran and Callum." Claudia said to Soren. "They don't have to." A voice said to Claudia.
This made everyone turn and see Callum behind them, with a mean look, Claudia's spell book in his right hand and some kind of tentacle in his left hand. "I'm right here." Callum said to everyone, making Claudia exclaim. "Callum! You're safe!" Claudia said to Callum, but then noticed the stuff in his hands, and got worried.
"What are you doing?" Claudia asked Callum. "Your kind of magic." Callum said to Claudia, making Rayla, Kali, Allen, and Drake angry. "You don't want to do this, Callum. It's really dangerous unless someone shows you how." Claudia said to Callum, slowly walking to him. "Yanma." Yanma said as he flapped his wings, and fired a burst of wind at Claudia with sparkles in it, forcing Claudia back.
"You already did." Callum said to Claudia, before squishing the tentacle. Then Callum started to chant a spell. Then Callum fired a green fire at the dragon, making the chains that were still on the dragon turn green. Then the chains turned into metal snakes that were glowing green. Then Callum's eyes turned black and everyone, friend and foe got worried.
Then Callum ordered the snakes to attack the knights, but doing that caused him to faint. While the snakes took care of the knights, Rayla, Kali, Allen, Drake, and the Poekmon moved to the dragon. "Get up. You're free." Rayla said to the Dragon, as they tried to wake her up.
But that's when Soren stood in front of them, with the broken tip of his sword, pointed at Rayla, making them stop trying to wake up the Dragon. "Congratulations! That was impressive. Really. You four did everything you could to save a monster that torched a town of innocent people." Soren said to them, as he forced them away from the dragon, and had knights around them.
"She's not a monster, Soren. And I'm sure it was after you decided to hurt her." Drake said to Soren. "But it didn't even matter. You four freed a dead dragon." Soren said to them. "Who said she's dead?" Allen asked Soren, as everyone had a sheepish smile on their faces, as they saw the dragon open her eyes. Then the dragon saw Soren and growled at him, as she got up. Soren nervously backed away from the dragon, as the dragon roared.
Back with Ezran, Zym, Bait, and Rockruff, they were playing hide and seek, with Ezran and Rockruff looking for Zym and Bait. Then Ezran and Rockruff saw Bait's glow and ran to it. "Still bad at this, buddy." Ezran said to Bait, as he picked Bait up. "Now, where's Zym?" Ezran asked, looking around. It took Ezran a few seconds to realize that Zym wasn't around. "Oh, no. I'm so stupid. Hide and seek was a really bad idea." Ezran said to Rockruff and Bait, making them bark and croak in agreement
Back with the others, as the Dragon roared at the knights, Rayla, Kali, Drake, Allen, and the Pokemon ran to Callum's side, with Kali finally getting her Sunforge Dagger back. "We have to get out of here!" Rayla said to everyone, as she and Drake helped Callum up. Doing this made everyone see how weak and tired Callum was. Then everyone saw the knight run away, leaving Soren to face the dragon alone. Then the dragon roared into Sorens face, and Soren stood his ground. Then Soren charged at the dragon and tried to fight her.
During the fight Soren cut off one of the tips of the dragon's left horns. This made it roar in pain. Then the dragon tried to step on Soren, but Soren dodged that attack. But before Soren could do anything, the dragon whipped her tail at him, sending him and his sword flying. And while the sword landed in the ground, Soren rolled and landed back first onto a curve of a rock. This made a cracking sound. Then the dragon got close to Soren, and was about to finish him.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!" Drake said to the dragon, as he got in between Soren and the dragon. This made the dragon then look closely at Drake, and surprised Soren. "The battle is over. There's no point or honor in fighting something that can't fight back." Drake said to the dragon, as Zym showed up. The Dragon and Drake noticed this and looked at him. "Zym?! What are you doing here?" Drake asked Zym "Zym!" Ezran said, as he came running up and grabbed Zym. The dragon turned and roared at Ezran and Zym. This made Drake move in front of them now.
"You want these princes. You'll have to get through me first!" Drake said to the dragon, as he generated electricity from his staff. This made the dragon look at them again, but this time with confusion, and sniffed them. Then the dragon realized something and took off into the sky. "Well that happened." Drake said to everyone, before he noticed Claudia walking to them.
"You want some too Claudia!" Drake asked Claudia, as he got ready to protect Ezran and Zym. "The little dragon's coming with me." Claudia said to Drake. "Zym is going home." Drake said, as he generated even more electricity, and got ready to release it. Then Claudia started to cast a spell and her eyes turned black. But before she could finish her spell, Soren got her attention. "Claudia! Help me." Soren said to Claudia, making Claudia realize Soren wasn't moving at all. "Sorry Claudia but we have to go, Fusion Bolt!" Drake said to Claudia, before slamming the tip of his staff into the ground, and letting out a surge of electricity.
This electricity made Claudia close her eyes, and when she opened them, the gang was gone. Losing sight of them, Claudia had no choice but to run to Soren's side. "Soren! I'm here." Claudia said to Soren, as she got on her knees next to him. "Come on, get up. We have to get you some help." Claudia said to Soren, holding onto Soren's left arm. "I… I can't move, Claudia. I can't move!" Soren said to Claudia. This made Claudia open her mouth in shock.
The Castle In Katolis
Back in the castle Viren waited for the elf, for a while. And when the elf finally showed up, Viren picked up the dagger. "I'm ready." Viren said to the elf, as he held the dagger to his palm. The elf cracked a smile and walked to the mirror. The elf took his dagger and cut his palm, making some blood drop into the bowl, making it shoot out some purple fire and smoke. Viren did the same thing.
The elf opened his mouth and a wired caterpillar crawled out of his mouth. Then the left dropped the caterpillar into the bowl and it appeared in Viren's bowl. Viren picked it up and looked at it. Then the caterpillar crawled up Viren's arm and onto his right ear. "Speak." A creepy male voice said to Viren. This made Viren freaked out a little, and turned right wondering where that voice came from. "Speak, so I may hear you." The voice said to Viren.
That's when Viren realized it was the elf talking to him. "Who… who are you?" Viren asked the elf. "Ah… How long I have waited to hear the sound of another voice." The elf said to Viren. "How may I serve you?" the elf asked Viren, before cracking a smile.
