Strena Road To Roqaur Part Two

 Zaryb's Concern


Strena walked in. Zaryb soon followed. She noticed that The Blood Pudding seemed smaller too. She noticed that there were more buildings all around it. Some were more farmhouses and others were barns. Yet, she also noticed that there were new people, yes the moment that she saw Nagica her heart rose slightly.

"Strena?"

"Yes. It has been a long time, Nagica. Was it?"

She smiled, wrapping her arms around the girl.

"You remember me!"

"Do you remember me too?" Asked a man next to her.

She looked at him and her eyes narrowed.

"Yes, I do." She said deadpan. "Keep away from my hair!"

"She remembered me!" He sang as his hand came close. She then quickly slapped his hand away for her hair.

"Oh, Strena!" Sang she bartender.

"Yes?" She asked, pushing Nagica's arms away and going to him.

"Well, I was cleaning around the tavern and I saw this." He said, bringing out the sword.

"Orion!" She exclaimed as her eyes lit up.

"So it is you!"

That was when Nagica looked down to see Darkector sat on her hip and her eyes widened.

"By Strena of the hunt! Is that Darkector?" She asked.

She smiled as she unsheathed it and showed it to her.

"Yes!"

They all looked at it in awe and then back at her with both awe and fear.

"How did you get that?"

She told her.

"And how old were you when you became an assassin?" Nagica asked with a high pitched voice.

"Seven." She said, putting on a false smile.

Her eyes widened.

"What!? But that's far too young!"

Her eyes rested upon Zaryb. She then slapped him.

"Tell me, why did you do that? She's just a child!"

He looked down and let out a sigh.

"They fit into my plans for her."

"Oh and what else? Did you take her to Grasharlo too?"

Strena remembered all that happened and became as white a sheet. Suddenly she was reminded of all that she did. What she used her to do. She suddenly felt the fear of herself rising in her body.

"That was not my decision to make."

"Meaning?"

"Grasharlo…possessed me. She wanted me to become her apprentice…I killed her." She said, not wanting to go into detail.

Her eyes widened in anger as her face became pale.

"You did what?"

"I killed her."

"Did she do anything to you?"

"Rather not go into it. I'm too tired. Too late."

"Strena, answer her."

"No, Master Zaryb. I don't want to go into it. I also think that I would like to train tomorrow." She muttered in a soft whisper. "Thank you for keeping Orion for me."

She took the sword and then found her room and slumped on her bed. She looked at Orion.

Can you speak, Orion?

"I can." She heard a polite and calm voice say.

What are you made of?

"A lion gave my father his saliva along with the scales of the first dragon of creation. What are you made of little brother?"

"The blood of Wolfox and the dragon king."

Are you both alright?

"Yes."

"I am."

She soon fell asleep. She soon found herself walking in a forest. She saw a teenage girl. She had deathly pale skin with crimson eyes and long jet black hair. Strena recognized the girl but she could not remember where she had seen her before.

"Answers will come soon."

Her eyes opened. She then cleaned herself and put on her clothes. She took her swords and cleaned them. She soon joined Zaryb.

"Are you alright? Be honest with me."

"Yes. Now let's get to the training grounds." She said as she walked to the door.

He caught her.

"Don't lie to me. Or need I remind you that I am the one that raised you."

She nodded and he leaned in and placed a hand on her shoulder. He pulled her out and slammed her against the wall.

"What?"

"Do you honestly think that you can hide things from me girl. I-"

"No, then! Now come on. I don't want to focus on that! I need to get into shape!"

"You're already in shape and I train you hard everyday!"

"I know. I need to return to focusing on what you want. Alright! Or do your plans, whatever they are, need to be put on hold just because you need to see if I'm alright? And since when did you care?"

She shrugged him off as they walked to the training grounds. She was hit by an even worse fit of nostalgia as she looked at the field as this was where her training started. Yet she noticed that it was flatter than it used to be. She then turned back to Zaryb.

"Are you ready?"

"Are you?"

"I guess I'm going to find out."

She ran to him. She first went to strike him with Orion but he blocked it. She went to stab him with Darkector. He ducked and went to drive his hand into her stomach. Yet she saw this coming and jumped back, flicking Darkector right at him. He raised his head, making her miss. She then landed.

She then ran on and on. Driving both blades at him but she missed every time. She then spun and flicked her swords at him again and again and again. Then she flicked her leg out. This hit and she smiled. However, to her surprise, he smiled too! Yet she knew that her punishment was coming.

 She then pushed off him and landed far away from him. He ran to her and hit her. She was flying before she even had the chance to blink. She landed and looked up to see where he was. Only to be hit in the temple. She was soon rolling to the left. Then, before she had the chance to recover, was hit to the other side. She started rolling the other way.

Then she saw the leg that was coming at her. She put down her sword and flicked out her hand and caught his ankle. She pulled it up and thrust a punch under the shin. This caused him to wobble but only slightly. Yet she was still able to use this to get her back on her feet. Then she punched him in the face. Upon hitting him he caught her wrist and pulled her in.

"Good girl! But you still have a lot to learn." He shouted as he slapped her in the temple.

She rolled again and again. She then spotted the foot and caught it again. He hopped and she let go. She rolled away before he reached the ground. She rolled to her feet again. She looked at to where Zaryb was, only to see that he was no longer there! 

Then she felt a hand on her wrist.

How?

"Strena, you could have punched the ankle away. If you did that I would have hit the ground."

She shook her head. She jumped and punched back. He did not let go. She punched back again and again and again and he still did not let go. She continued to punch him again and again and still nothing happened! She tried to hit him in the throat and upon striking, he let go. He coughed and coughed.

"Good. You have improved greatly since you were here last."

"Had a good master. Now do-"

He punched her again and she was taken back by the strength and she hit the ground. She then saw his fist in front of her. She rolled out of the way. She went to grab his wrist but he was able to catch her by the throat. He then pulled her in.

"Now, tell me, what is wrong?"

Her eyes looked aside.

"Training's over. I wanna job." She moaned, flicking away the hand with the back of her wrist.

She walked to the tavern and saw the job that she wanted and took it.

"What job did you take?"

She showed him.


Dark Master Lord Gajellidor Darcrogh

King Valcula Of Trilaccia

King Of Roqaur


He let out a huff.

"I'm seriously concerned about you."

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!
