Drakians (Telios & DawnAntalios)

[DawnAntalios]

The night has finally come and Zoe stepped out from their house clad in her full ebony black armor, her sword and her shield hanging on her back. The dark clouds only parted to reveal the full moon which now bathed the land in its silvery light. Even though she knew they were ready she was a bit terrified - a natural reaction.


But she was ready.

 

[Telios]

Vane was half changed into his dragon form: scales replaced his skin and wings sprouted out of his back. "Ready to go?" He looked over to Zoe as a gold glow surrounded them, showing that he was preparing for the teleportation spell.

 

[DawnAntalios]

She nodded silently and grabbed his hand as she stepped closer to him, ready to be dragged through the universe. Fortunately teleporting would not leave its mark on her after that much training - she had built up her resistance against such illnesses.

 

[Telios]

The gloden glow changed into a flash as they were transported through space with a short time. Soon they were standing in the center of Doonem, or what was left of it. Ruins surrounded them. Vane looked around and saw the full moon. "It's time..."

 

[DawnAntalios]

" Indeed it is. " said a familiar voice and few moments later the boy with white hair and purple eyes manifested in front of them. His purple aura shining in the pale moonlight, smiling at the newcomers.


" So you have come. " he said calmly " Frankly I did not think you would actually come to my aid but... benevolence flows within both of you so it makes sense after all. "

 

[Telios]

"Explain yourself. How are we helping you by killing you?" Vane asked the boy, the artifact in his scaled hands. "And if you turn on us, I'll get on with your 'request' immediately."

 

[DawnAntalios]

" I was not exactly honest with you. " said the boy with a frown " It is not me who you need to end. It is him. "


He raised both of his palm towards the moon which in turn glowed brighter and channeled its power to the kid's hands. He then turned back and shot the beam at the place where once the throne stood - and the illusion vanished. There was, chained in dark shackles, burning in black flames the torn, the subdued and the insane white dragon known as Punos.


" It is my vessel I wish you to destroy. " he said with a faint smile " But he will not go down without a fight. "

 

[Telios]

"Fair enough..." Vane said as the golden blade appeared, walking towards the chained dragon. He felt the dark aura surrounding it was overpowering, but he pushed though, the Onyx Symbol on his forehead glowing brightly.

 

[DawnAntalios]

The mangled behemoth opened its eyes, they are now burning in the same black flame as his chains and looked at the tiny human before it.


" You... I know you... " it murmured then with a frothing rage it broke free from its chains, raising to its four claws. It then looked at the sacred weapon and lifted off to the air. " I will destroy you... " it roared in fury as it unleashed a breath of dark flame.


Zoe dashed to help Vane and with her large shield she tried to block the flame of hell, whispering to him.


" Go! I will try to cover you! "

 

[Telios]

Vane teleported to above Punos and slammed the blade downwards onto his head. "Die!" He shouted as he slid back the golden blade downwards to the dragon's neck. He then jumped off and glided down, knowing that if he stayed on there for too long, he would be slammed down.

 

[DawnAntalios]

The dragon roared in pain but regained its momentum in the air, breathing the dark flame everywhere. From the grievous wound on its neck purple blood and similar flame of darkness emerged but it did not seem to care. It then landed on the ground facing the boy and Zoe. Its eyes glittered menacingly as it shot a purple beam at them. But then the little boy intervened, standing before Zoe, raising a deep blue barrier in front of her. Surprised at first Zoe then joined in and together they were able to repel the attack of the creature.

 

[Telios]

Vane dove down after the dragon as it lost its focus on him. He again slammed his sword onto his back, running down along its spine as he dragged his sword through his scales. Once done, he jumped off and teleported to Zoe and the boy to help them with the barrier and deflected the beam at it.

 

[DawnAntalios]

As if it was completely oblivious to the damage done to it Punos pushed on his attack, now summoning few skeletons to battle its opponents.


" Your world will be swallowed in darkness! " it yelled, its wounds consumed by the dark flame as it flew up in the air again. In the light of the moon its true form was visible: flesh melting away from the bone, infused with unholy magic, scales falling off from its body and claws missing cover showing its skeletal features.


It was an abomination to behold.

 

[Telios]

"An undead... Huh." Vane vanished with a gold flash, only to appear in his dragon form a few seconds later. He focused and cast a golden sigil in front of him. Immediately, a bright pillar of light appeared above and through Punos.

 

[DawnAntalios]

The dragon shot out a beam of pure darkness which collided with the one of Vane's. To its dismay the pillar of light proved to be stronger and it pushed towards it ever so slowly. Then finally it pierced its infernal hide, the creature shrieked and fell to the ground. From its body a shade coalesced which poured out from its wounds and slowly but steadily the shadowy figure spawned before them, gazing at them with furious eyes.

" How dare you touch my perfect creation? " it bellowed with a demanding voice " The wyrm has perished, it matters not. Now I will return you into the abyss! "

 

[Telios]

Vane charged up as his Onyx Symbol on his forehead glowed. He released a small golden burst of light from his muzzle and at the shadow. The burst of light hit and it made a hole through the shadow. "I have had enough from Punos. Now there's someone else?"

 

[DawnAntalios]

The shadow figure laughed as the darkness regenerated.


" Punos? " he asked with a menacing grin on his face " You mean the child beside you? Why would he be your opponent? No no, I will be the one to crush your soul. After all... you destroyed my pet I worked on for so long. The master will be displeased... "


She readied his dark hands, turning them into claws.


" But if I bring him your heads he might just be delighted! " said the shade and he struck.

 

[Telios]

Vane vanished as multiple lightning bolts struck the figure, followed up by a red sigil around it to burn it and a pillar of light crashing down from the sky. Vane was determined to end this once and for all, because he wanted to protect his mate and everyone else.

 

[DawnAntalios]

" You hide like children! " the shadow bellowed as it dashed towards Vane absorbing some attacks in the process. With cold fury at slashed at the boy with ferocity and dodged every single spell he cast on it. The boy observed the events from below and he sent a telepathic message to Vane.


" I know it is hard to ask but trust me. " he told him " And ready your blade, I have a plan. "

 

[Telios]

Vane was hit but it barely made a scratch on him. He changed forms again, now in his humanoid form just like before. He grabebd the blade and readied it, teleporting away from the shadow figure.

 

[DawnAntalios]

The boy channeled his powers and touched Zoe's hand. The girl at first surprised also started to harness her own powers and now both of them directed it at Vane - more specifically his sword. When his power was expended the boy collapsed in Zoe's arms and now looked at Vane in hope as he battled with the shadowy monstrosity.

 

[Telios]

The blade turned from golden into completely white. "The power is immense..." Vane felt the power coursing from the sword into him, making his slashes much stronger and his speed much faster too. He vanished and reappeared behind the shadow figure and thrusted the sword through it.

 

[DawnAntalios]

" This again? You are too slow! " the shade grinned as Vane attacked it. But the grin quickly vanished as tendrils of purple and blue emerged from the sword immobilizing it allowing the blade to strike.


Its red eyed opened wide in pain as the golden blade struck through it. " No... " it whispered in terror before it started to writhe in agony.

 

[Telios]

Vane let go off the blade and backed off from it, hovering in the air. "I didn't think that'd work. Seemed that it did." He smiled as he landed next to Zoe, looking up at the figure writhing in pain.

 

[DawnAntalios]

The shade roared in anguish as shadow escaped its body. Pointlessly it tried to catch the dark substance but it slid out of its hands.


" This... isn't over. " it cried in pain " You will drown in your own blood! The world will burn in the master's wrath! " with that it dissipated into nothingness and the darkness receded. It was a calm night once more.


The boy in Zoe's arms opened his eyes and looked at them gleefully.


" You have done it! " he said with a joyful expression then turned to Vane " Would you kindly thrust your sword in the body of the dragon? "
