Strena Attempts On Zaryb Arc Part Two

 The Second Attempt


Strena found herself walking down corridors again. She could sense that there was something in these corridors. She also knew that three was something that she had to do. She was supposed to be there and she always was supposed to do what she was about to do. However she, in that moment, could not place a finger onto what that actually was.

She reached the room, her parents room or the room she should have inherited. She suddenly felt like she was being watched as she walked in as silent as a mouse. No, even they were louder than her footsteps. She approached the bed where a man slept and killed him as quickly as she could, as silently as she could. She then walked out with just as little noise.

Then she felt a hand on her shoulder. It felt real and the grip was strong. She looked back to see that woman.

"So…this is where you are going." She said, with a surprised tone.

"What?"

"You are going to kill that poor young man. In cold blood no doubt! That's interesting."

"I don't know why I keep doing that. Yet I think it might have something to do with him pretending to be what I am."

"Really? Is that all?"

She frowned.

"Should there be more?"

"I think so."

"How come?"

"How come you don't take the crown? Why do you always walk away?"

"I don't know."

"Maybe he makes you do something that makes you feel unworthy of the crown? Or maybe you find out something that makes you not want the crown?" She suggested.

She frowned.

She wanted to argue against this but she just could not. After all, she already would not call herself the ideal queen. She was a bounty hunter, assassin and slayer. She had recently found out that she was born out of wedlock and on top of that, she had blood on her hands. She feared the more she was forced to walk down this path the worse it would become. She had to find a way to put a stop to that.

"There is a way that you can fix that. I don't even need to say. You already know. So do it!"

She looked down.

"But-" She stammered, placing a hand on the necklace around her neck.

"I will help you."

She placed her indeed on her forehead and her eyes opened.

She pulled herself out from under the covers. She took her sword and unsheathed it. She looked at the blade, having the feeling that something was missing. Something in her mind had been taken. Even though she could not place what, she did not care. Her mind became flooded with all the evil Zaryb had done and put her through and forced her to do. She could not get it out of her head. However she did not want it to get out of her head. All she cared about was killing Zaryb, all she wanted, in that moment, was to have him die at her hand.

"What?" He groaned.

"My eyes have been opened."

She shoved the blade and he pulled out a small dagger. He soon blocked it. She was drawn back. She then jumped back and Zaryb pushed forward. He pushed himself out of his bed and she momentarily lost sight of him and he hit her in the back. She spun, ignoring the pain, and tried to strike down, aiming for the torso. He jumped up and kicked her in the face. She was on the ground before she knew what was going on. She spun and as he came to pin her down, she head-butted him before he could do a thing. 

She scrambled to her feet. She flung her sword at him and he blocked. She flung her sword at him again and again and again, and he blocked and blocked and blocked. She was getting nowhere. All she was doing was hitting his blade and nothing else. She had to change her plans but this was all she could do at the moment.

Then she spotted an opening and she kicked to his side, but he flung his blade down and blocked another strike before she could even land a single blow. She had to push through the pain, again. Yet she could feel her eyes being burnt by her tears as all she could do was slash and slash and slash and she could do nothing.

Then she lost sight of him again then she felt his foot in her gut. She flew in the air and she felt a hand quickly jab into her hip. She flung down and rolled rapidly as she landed. She then rolled back on her feet and then saw the shadow and flung her fist into it. Only for him to grab her wrist. He pulled her hand up and he then punched her in the face. 

She flung away and hit her head hard. Everything went black. When she woke up whatever was taken was back.

"W-what's happening to me?" She cried.

"Depends, mind telling me what that was all about?"

"I-I-I d-don't know! All I could think about was what you did to me. I don't know how but she took something and I don't even know what and-and-and"

"Tried to kill me."

She nodded as she trembled.

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!
