Strena Attempts On Zaryb Arc Final Part

 Total Defeat


When Streba woke up next a blade was pointing to her throat. Her lip curled as she sat up. She then smiled as she looked at the bounds around her wrists.

"Not taking any chances, I see!"

"No."

"It's alright. I'm not going to try to kill you. No Zarry. I've seen that your self preservation is not your weakness. However I have seen that it never had been. Yet I know what it is. Speaking of which I can also tell that the girl does want to kill you, but she wants it to be on her terms. Oh what is it about your lot and wanting things to be on your terms,  that I will never know. However I can see right through you and what you are doing." She said, rolling onto her feet.

She looked down at the bounds and they broke apart.

"Did you really think that they could stop me?"

She then heard the sound of the sea and looked back. 

"What else should I have expected, dark lady?"

She smiled as she ran to the cliffs. She looked down and smirked as she saw the rocky pile below.

"By the way, that sword. The one she wields, do you know the name of it?" She asked to distract him.

"No, why? Is it important?" He asked, walking slowly towards her.

She let out a laugh.

"Might be. After all, the one that can wield the sword and knows its name will have access to the power it contains. Yet she has power of her own and she needs a teacher to show her how."

"Not you."

"Oh but you will not have a choice in that regard. After all she does need to grow and I am the only one who can help you in that regard. So let me."

"No. There is someone I can turn to."

"Oh? Is that so? Then what do you think he will do once he finds out the nature of her birth? Let's face it, you're alone in this."

He looked down. He tried not to cry so he bit his lip to stop himself.

"No. I will not let her become a dark lady. She is far too young and you know it. And if I did want her to become one you would be the last person I would turn to."

She let out a laugh.

"I thought you would say something like that."

She then ran to the edge of the cliff. She then placed her leg out and almost jumped. Zaryb raced to her and gripped her wrist. She was able to take advantage of this and reached out and pulled his blade out and pointed it at her throat!

His eyes widened and his grip became momentarily loose. Yet he gripped her again to stop her from falling. She smiled victoriously.

"Got you! Now let me have her as my apprentice. I hardly need to say what will happen if you don't! I know it will be of no consequence to me but for you…"

"No I will not!"

She pressed the blade in deeper to let the blood start to trickle down her neck.

"She will die."

He closed his eyes as he started to tremble. He was about to pull her up but his body froze. He opened his eyes and looked at  her in shock.

"Ah, ah, ahhh! Only a 'yes' will save her."

He looked behind her at the rocks. Then at her.

"Yes. You can have her as an apprentice."

She smiled, returning the dagger and placed a hand over her neck. Steam rose and she let out a scream. When she pulled the hand away, there was a thick black ring around her neck.

"What was that for?"

"Ensurance. You have until all the roof glows red. Should you fail to come by that time she will die horribly. Also it will do the same thing if you hand her over to me without finding out the name of the sword. And just to show you that I mean business, I will be popping by. Just to give you a little motivation."

He nodded. He pulled her in. Strena felt the witch finally let her go. She hugged him tightly as she trembled uncontrollably. She could not stop herself from shaking nor crying. She knew it would earn her a scolding but, try as she might, she just could not stop it. Yet he instead refined the high as he too could not stop his years and his shaking either.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I couldn't- I tried but I couldn't-"

"It's alright. As I said, you are no match for her."

"Wh-who w-was she anyway?"

"A Dark Lady known as Grasharlo. And I'm sorry but you're going to be her apprentice once we find out the name of your sword."

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 toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

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

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
