The Anti-Fairy Tales The Six Dream Hells Arc Part Five



The Fifth Hell

      Pheoshan woke up in the fifth Dream Hell. One more to go...she thought as her body became rebellious to movement. Her eyelids were heavy and her body hurt. So she was forced to take a break. She had been fighting for a long time and going from one Dream Hell to the next giving herself no time to just rest. She had become exhausted and she knew it, and despite her desperation to wake, she knew that she had to take this break for if she did not then she knew that she may not even wake!
      She had just about replenished her strength when she spotted a hand fall down on her, quickly she dodged easily then she spotted another and then another and suddenly like a cloudburst more appeared and this time she knew that she could not dodge. The beating did not stop not even when she could taste iron. She raised her arms above her in defense which was just as useful as a child with a driver's license.
      She thought that this would be the end if it until she felt a hand swiftly grip her arm and like a vegetable pulled her up from the angry mob. Suddenly she was riding on a black stallion and a boy her age was in front of her. One very recognizable boy.
      "Coalphyre!?"
      "Yes, I have only just arrived and it has been very bizarre! All of the other Dream Hells have been destroyed and their Dream Demons are all dead. Care to fill me in to what happened?" He asked. Cockily she shrugged.
      "Well...I did." She replied barely hiding her pride.
      "And the prisoners of four Dream Hells suddenly waking up?" He inquired. Pheoshan nodded with pride.
      "By The Great Being, you can kill demons." He muttered under his breath.
      "What was that?"
      "Nothing!" He called as he imagined a sword with a reverse blade and used the blunt side to whipe some if the angry mob away from them with just one hand!
      "Woah! You were holding back that much in our fight?" She questioned. Coalphyre tried to conceal a smirk as he brushed the other side of the mob away from them. He then gave her a mocking smirk as if to say; when are you going to join in? Taking the hint she imagined two kitanas and like Coalphyre she imagined them with a reverse blade as she plowed through the maddened crowd.
      They then approached a grave yard. Knowing that this was the place to be Coalphyre jumped off and either out of instinct or humor, extended his hand to her. Smirking already knowing that she was going to she jumped off beside him barely touching the hand. Coalphyre laughed to himself.
      "Typical, can you not let me have at least one moment of chivalry?" He laughed. She too let out a laugh which was disguised as a sigh.
      "Do I look like someone to waste chivalry on?" She threw back.
      "Yes." He replied as the angry mob ran to them before she could replay.
      "Look, I have to get the boss so do you think that you could take care of them?" She asked. Coalphyre raised his eyebrow cockily.
      "Of course I can!" He replied as she turned to run. "Oh! And do not forget to give him a good thrashing for me!"
      She ran and ran until she came to a tomb, where she knew that the Dream Demon lay. The black gate opened and then the blackwood door. As soon as she was in she slammed her back against the wall and walked sideways. Getting rid of her kitanas she used her hands to keep herself from falling. She slowed down her breathing and closed her eyes and opened up her hearing as she descended. She hoped that she could hear the Dream Demon but all that she heard was her echoing footsteps.
      Then she heard it before she felt herself slashing beside her as she opened her eyes to see she spotted nothing, but she could have sworn that she had hit something. She soon felt a breeze followed by pain across her forehead. Something warm flowed down like water soon blood was getting in her eyes as she felt something slash across her back then as she felt something slice her hip she dug her kitana into her opponent. Soon followed by a frightful roar.
      She heard something was coming towards her at a great speed, instinctively she turned and then a tail hit the floor as she felt something dig into her sides. She was now in the air and as she felt pressure beside her, she stabbed blindly behind her stabbing it in the nose! It let her go and as she started to fall she imagined herself behind the Dream Demon but when she did she just caught the sight of the Dream Demon.
      It had a dragon-like snout and black crooked horns tipped with red that gave the illusion of blood and its humanoid form was like a human with scales and spikes of it's back. She spotted it's dagger long claws and her fleash hanging from it as it flicked it off. Then it too disappeared. Already knowing where it was going to appear she turned her body and hit the arm of the creature she imagined her bladed to be thinner and sharper and soon she pushed the blade deeper and deeper as she was picked off like a leech. She used this to her advantage as she pierced the wrist almost severing it until she used it as a swing to dive her blade into the creature.
      "I...I..I think..." She stuttered as she tried to find the right words to say. "I am...Vulnerable and insecure which leads me to become aggressive. Now free all of the prisoners here as well as Coalphyre. I must face this last one alone." She recognized as she left to the final Dream Hell.

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p...

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toa...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Four

 Defending The Town  It was nearly an hour after sunrise when Loc saw the army on the far end of the tunnel. She looked back at Gina. She nodded and gave her a couple of coins with a dragon head on. “There’s a weapon’s shop at the edge.” Loc gave her the basket and ran to it. “Doyouhavammer!” “What?” “Do you have a hammer?” “Yes.” She gave him the coins. Yet then he looked at her eyes and his widened. “That’s enough for two.” He took them and took out two large hammers. She took them. She felt the weight and threw them in the air a few times. “Good weight!” “Hold on! You can hold them both?” “Yeah. Can’t the women of this world do the same?” “No. Not even some men can do that.” She raised her eyebrow, however she knew that she did not have time to appreciate what he had just said. She ran out as she knew that they were reaching the town. I need to take them away from the town. She thought as some passed her. She ran to the closest one. She jumped in the air and thrust her ham...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Fourteen

 The Rock Dragon  Loc and the other two arrived at where the rock dragon lay. It looked at them with glowing amber eyes and had the shape of a turtle that was large. It had a head the shape of a wolf and had a long tail with four rows of spikes shaping an X at the tip. It had a pair of wings tucked away, yet the body had become too large to fly. It may have been able to fly once upon a time, but not now. After years of being glutinous, it had grown too heavy for it’s body. Upon seeing them it charged at them, making it's body sway from side to side rapidly. They all moved out of the way. They ran to opposite corners. Then it turned around and looked at Shiro directly in the eye. Soon Loc ran and went to jump upon it’s back only to feel pain in her side. The next moment she slammed into the walls. Then a spike fell from the roof of the cave. Loc rolled out of the way and soon the itching flared up as she felt her bones being crushed. Yet then she saw another fall and another an...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Final Part

 Sorrowful Rest Loc spent most of her time between sleep and rest in the underground library, as she tried to stop herself from crying. Looking at the whole place, Loc could not help but feel nostalgic for Billy’s Bookshop. She almost could not help but feel the expectation of the faen walking up to her asking her for what book she would like to buy and read this time. Yet this brought more tears as she had to remind herself that she was not in her world as she picked out the first book. She sat on a stone bench outside and looked at the book and opened it. In the year of three after the dragon  defeated the royals and has taken all our first born and killed them. Then another dragon of great beauty and  majesty carved out pits where she  regurgitated up a strange liquid that made up a series of pools. Then the  rock dragon did the same and put the dead firstborn in. Then they all grew  rock over their flesh and came out alive and as rock. Then, upon the or...

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Final Part

 The Piece  They looked at the piec. Doormaze walked up to it. She picked it up and took a closer look at it. She felt very tired as she looked at the other two. “Well, what are you waiting for?” She looked up at the castle as she let out a yawn. She then looked back at them. She could tell that both of them were tired. “What?” “We’re the only people here.” “And?” “We’re all tired and I don’t know when the next time we will be sleeping in a good and warm bed.” “So?” “I think that we should call it a night. Find a bed and take some time off tomorrow.” “Why?” “We all need it.” They looked at each other and they soon found a velvet royal purple bed. They flopped into them and went to sleep the moment that their heads hit the pillows. The following day Doormaze looked around the castle, wondering who lived in it and what they were like. She then walked into a library filled with dusty only books of all shades of purple. She looked at the spines with writing of silver and gold. Her...
