The Dragons Return?

[Eiva]

Eiva had fallin into a deep sleep the pregnancy was hard on her. Though she hid it well.

The two dragons were having a stare down

[raive]

Reliakus saw the incoming lightning and used his own body to shield Leryssa - but then they felt one of their own kin die. Leryssa cried out while Reliakus snorted a bit. The lightning hit Reliakus and as he tumbled down, he yelled back up, "Go, Leryssa, and take care of the asshole who just murdered Xander!"

"But--"

"GO! I can handle myself!" He impacted the ground and stood up, facing Cobra and Raive. "Two against one? Not fair. Wayfinder! I call you here!"

Raive aimed the machine pistol again, firing off another hail of bullets but Reliakus just charged through it, bodily slamming Raive to the ground. Raive threw up a barrier and yelled out, "Cobra! I can take care of myself. Find this Wayfinder!"

Raive let out a blast of concussive psychic force, pushing Reliakus back. Raive stood up. "Jakal must have killed your friend. We can avoid your death, too. Just tell us what you want, and we'll let the rest of you go."'

Reliakus shook his head. "Never. We're dragons - we won't give up. Even if you killed Xander, there's still four of us. Beast of the Sea... why do you fight here? Have your elders commanded you to fight?"

"I don't need the elders' permission to do as I please, for I am not a true Lugia. If I were, all five of you would be dead already."

"Tough talk for a lone guy. I'll tell you what we want. We want all the Draconian Arms, and we know they're in this city. We followed their emission of energy here. And you have the residual power of one who has wielded a Draconian Weapon before."

"How can you sense that?"

"I'm a dragon, you moron."

"I have wielded a piece of the Blade before, but it is not mine to wield anymore."

"Yes, they Joined to make a complete Blade. It was something we all felt, so we felt we needed to reclaim what was rightfully ours. The Draconian Arms belong to the dragons and the dragons alone, and all who wrongfully wields them shall perish!" With that, he opened his maw and the beam of darkness shot out again.

Raive quickly sent a thought to Cobra. Get out, now! I'm going to use Hyper Beam so this may get ugly!

Quickly shielding himself, Raive let loose a Hyper Beam that rocketed out of his beak. Both beams impacted each other, and it became a contest of wills. I'm going to push myself until you die, Reliakus!

At least that's mutual! They struggled against each other, neither side gaining or losing the advantage.

[Eiva]

The dragon stair down ended when both Aron and the other felt the death of Xander "See what your stupidity of not helping your own kin has done!?" he yelled at Aron. He was definitely smaller then Aron who was well over 1,000 years old though he never showed his age.

" What has my kin ever done for me!?" Aron yelled back "Look just get your ass out of here. I'm not in the mood for fighting, but if you get on my nerves anymore I might just regret what action I take."

The smaller dragon huffed, like Eiva would, and flew off in that direction Next time we meet brother it won't end like this!

obviously I'm not stupid Aron answered crossing his arms and well shooting a black flame of boiling heat at the now fast fleeing dragon. He chuckled a little.

"well.....that sure was interesting " Sioda mumbled climbing down from his sniping position his bow secure to his back.

[cobra]

Cobra was just in the middle of looking for Wayfinder, when his ears perked up at the sound of the blasts of energy impacting. Cobra looked back to see Raive and Reliakus battling their wills. Cobra stared at the both of them, unsure what to do.

I gotta see to this Wayfinder dragon... But I can't just leave Raive there to die if he comes up short... He can handle himself, I know it. I don't want to interrupt... Cobra snorted, "Don't end up dying ya giant parrot! I'm sure your friends wouldn't like that!" he shouted, before running off to find this... Wayfinder. He had gotten far away from Raive and his opponent, keeping a close eye on Leryssa.
----

Later, Samuel had just finished contacting the police force, dashing back over to Aron and Eiva, "You guys. How'd you do?" he asked, "There's not a scratch on either of you... are you both alri--" suddenly, falling in front of him was a smaller dragon, young, his scales pale white and his mane a faded yellow and his eyes a bright red. He staggered, groaning and moaning inaudible sentences, making Samuel's skin crawl. He looked up at the three and groaned, "You... dueahg... die..."

[Eiva]

Aron facepalmed "why!? Why more?" he says not happy about the appearance of another of his kin.

Sioda just shivered "Ok................" he says looking at Samuel.

[raive]

Raive pushed himself to the limit of his abilities; he felt like he was slipping away and he knew that he was using his life energy, now.

Then, the Shadow overtook him and lent him strength. "A thousand hells await you!" And then a giant explosion rocked the entire city, large though it was. However, although the explosion was large, the damage was only catastrophic in its place of origin. Of Reliakus, there was no sight - utterly obliterated by the explosion. Raive still stood, though something was terribly, terribly wrong; he was missing both of his wings. They lay a short distance away, but the stumps were bleeding profusely. The Shadow left him, and Raive collapsed, groaning as he looked at his wings. "No... no... dammit..."

Spirit had been watching the fight, along with Sami, but both didn't want to get close. They flew out of the range of the explosion, but when Spirit saw the devastation of both the city blocks and Raive, she screeched and dove down to him. "Raive! Raive! Stay with me."

"Spirit, I--" he coughed up a fountain of blood. "Dammit, I needed that blood. Spirit, we need to reattach my wings."

"I can't do that! It would kill you!"

"I value flight more than any other aspect of my life, save you two."

"Daddy," Sami spoke. "Are you... going to join the ancestors?" She sounded afraid. "I don't want to lose you... I'm not going to lose you, Daddy..." she jumped onto his chest, sobbing. "You can't die. You can't!"

"There may be hope left, little one. Spirit, did you bring my briefcase?" She nodded and opened it, showing that ten vials of psychic energy remained. "Inject me." She filled the syringe with the contents of a vial and injected him. Raive shook his head. "It's not enough. I think three more will do."

"Raive! Any more than two at one time will incapacitate you!"

"I don't think there's much to lose, Spirit. I'm dying. I might be able to save myself with this."

She did it three more times, after which Raive's body shimmered with energy and he slowly stood up. "My wings, please." Sami and Spirit each picked up one. "Hold them to the stumps." They did so. "Now join your minds with me." They did so. "And now prepare yourselves." His wing-stumps shimmered with energy and tendrils of power crept up his wings, binding them in place. "C'mon... c'mon..." The bond between wing and flesh grew stronger and stronger, until the joint was flawless and smooth - albeit no feathers would grow in that spot ever again. Spirit and Sami staggered and collapsed, utterly spent, and Raive injected himself again to give him the energy needed to levitate both of them and walk slowly to wherever Jade was. Jade... come... I need your help...

[cobra]

Jade, in the city, heard Raive's cries. You got yourself hurt again, didn't you, Raive? she thought back, from on top a building, I'm too far away from you to assist you... but I still have this. It was a risk, but Jade closed her eyes, her body glowing with a golden aura. From her apartment room, the Draconian Blade disappeared, reappearing behind Jade's back. She sent the fragments down to Raive, spinning around him, sending down a light to heal his mind and body, along with Spirit and Sami.

I don't want you to die yet, Raive. You still haven't given me my daily cuddles like we did finding the blade. She smiled, before looking in the air, seeing Leryssa, going after her.
------

Samuel pulled Mysherra from his pocket, "Aron... I'm going on a head on attack. You hit him if he dodges.." Samuel rushed Wayfinder. As expected, Wayfinder dodged, jumping out of the way, "Hit him now!"

[Eiva]

Aron hit him with his black hell fire on full blast.

[raive]

Raive held out his hand as all three Lugias stood up. His hand closed on an invisible hilt and the Draconian Blade formed around it. And then...

Armor seemingly made out of the universe covered him from head to toe. Raive swung the blade like it was made out of cardboard. "Spirit, Sami, get back to the apartment."

"Daddy... don't die..." with that, Sami and Spirit left. With his newfound strength, Raive simply teleported in front of Leryssa. "Hi there," he said before slashing in an vertical motion that, if Leryssa didn't block, would cut her in two.

[cobra]

Leryssa gasped suddenly as Raive appeared. An orb of light appeared in front of her, blocking the attack, but the orb blew up, bursting into light. She took off, suddenly changing her features to look exactly like Jade, towardsthe ground. Disguise was her best attribute. Once the debris lifted, she'd play the part of her, and kill Raive when he wasn't looking.

"Raive..." Leryssa called from the ground, her mind, body and spirit resembling Jade completely, "Are you okay?

---------------

Wayfinder's back suddenly lurched outward, a black tentacle neutralizing the fires. He landed on the ground on all fours, twitching, and gurgling, "You... guraah... gurah... grr..."

Samuel shuddered, "W-what...? What's wrong with him?"

[raive]

Raive was dazzled by the fragments of light and therefore didn't notice when Leryssa transformed into a perfect copy of Jade. Raive looked around as he landed. "Thanks for sending me the blade. Help me find Leryssa." He started to look around. "B**** couldn't have gotten far..."

[Eiva]

"If I knew...." Aron started then decided to shut his mouth looking at Sioda. "any ideas?"


"Not a one....." He stated from his new perch a clone of his answered for him. Copying if was of course dangerous if it back fired on him the spell would explode and he'd have but a split second to seal it withe a barrier spell.

"You know Eiva's going to slap us both when we get home...." Aron states now finally getting ready for a fight.

"Yeah....I can tell though when she's in pain...." he answers silently readying his bow.

______________________________

Sioda wasn't lying when next Eiva woke up she cave a groan of pain. Unfortunately she also couldn't move she recognized it as her being ebbed away. Twins.... she thought and quickly changed her energy flow so that both parties would be happy. A correlation of symbols in ancient spell weaver appeared behind her eyelids war,fight,honor, dispare, change, peace,DEATH she knew all of these well then the one that was on the necklace she wore appeared Guardian . This was going to be important and within seconds Eiva had gotten up gotten a pen and papper and in detail wrote the runes down in elegant script.

[Aaron]

Sammy got up " uh..... Eiva u ok ?" she aks worriedly.

[cobra]

Leryssa made a face like she was thinking, but behind her back, she held the orb of light. Once he was open... she'd have the orb enter his body and destroy him from the inside ou--

A beam suddenly hit Leryssa head on, sending her back away from Raive. The still disguised Leryssa looked up to see the beautiful pale blue Kisiyume, holding a fragment of the Draconian Blade the fragments floating behind her. Jade stared at Leryssa, smiling away, her eyes half closed in a seductive stare. Leryssa glared back, before her face softened, and she smiled, "Well you certainly have a pretty body..."

Jakal suddenly ran in, along with Cobra, before Jakal flinched at the sight of two Jades. He looked at Leryssa, then Jade, who winked at Jakal and Cobra. Jakal's ear twitched, before he pointed Pandora at the Jade next to Raive, "Alright, faker... drop the act."

Leryssa smirked, before changing back to her form, ripping off her cloak, revealing that she was wearing a leather top with tight leather pants, the orb of light floating behind her as she unsheathed a sword, "Okay... you found me..." she said, before adjusting something on her neck; a yellow collar with a green gem hanging from it that made Cobra shout, "Hey! My collar!"

"Yes..." Leryssa said coldly, "You want it?"

Cobra growled, but Jade held him back, "Don't worry, dear," she cooed sweetly, "I'll fight her. Raive, Jakal, stand down. I need some action. Spectate, if you'd like..."

Jakal put down Pandora, and Cobra grunted. They both slunk back with Raive, not saying another word.

-----------

Samuel glanced back at Sioda and Aron, "Stay sharp you two..."

The black tentacle from Wayfinder's back suddenly grasped at the air wildly, grabbing 2 pearl white orbs, before the tentacle slipped its way back into his body. He shuddered, suddenly, his body convulsing violently, his eyes rolling up to the sky, before his body gained some muscle, more tentacles tearing from his back, "I'll..." he growled, "I'll... kill... you..." he lunged at the group suddenly at incredible speeds. Samuel quickly slashed him with Mysherra, but he was unaffected by the attack, slamming him out of his way, before going after Aron and Sioda, his eyes full of bloodlust.

[Eiva]

Aron was ready with his sword his blue eyes turning blood red. The blade engulfed in the black flames that consumed all.

Sioda's clone on the ground was ready as Sioda readied his bow and released a perching arrow of pure blinding silver light right at Wayfinder's head praying it would hit it's mark before Aron had to release the true power of a 1,800 year old dragon.
