The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Four

 The Journey To The Castle


Loc woke up at an early hour. Kan was also awake. She walked up to him.

“Good morning.”

“Good morning Loc. Tell me, what is it that you want?”

“To put an end to those snake creatures.”

“Well, in that case, you will need this.” He said, passing her a piece of paper.

She looked at it and saw an island the shape of a spiral with a single river running from in the centre to the edge of the spiral cutting two halves of the spiral, where there was a castle.

“Is this the map of this land?”

“Yes. More specifically, Serpus. Surpenti’s dominion.”

She nodded.

“Then where are we?”

He pointed to a village close to the centre.

“So I should go to the castle?”

“Yes. However, I will have to warn you, if you kill Surpenti, do not return. After all, if you do, then Pendragon will wipe us all out. Although, before you leave, I would like you to remember to have quiet moments and enjoy them. You should not allow too much noise to prevent you from thinking.”

She nodded.

“Here. This is a little something to take on the road.” He said as he gave her a rucksack and a sword.

The sword was silver with a dragon in the centre and a purple leather strap wrapped around the handle. It had a weight in the shape of a rose made of white and black stone, making rings of black and white. In the centre of the guards was a snow white pearl with black diamonds surrounding it.

“It’s called Peble. It was given to my ancestors to give to a woman from another world. He told me it's short for Past Evil Beyond Light Evermore. He added that she would know what it means.”

She nodded.

“I do. And thank you Mr Tengo.”

He smiled.

“You are welcome. Now goodbye and may the fortune of the mad be with you.”

“Thank you.”

She then moved on and left the village. She found herself smiling as she felt excited about finally getting onto something that she knew. She knew that she was going to feel pain but she did not care. She then felt like she was returning to her path in life.

She also liked this walk and listened to the birds whistling. She had not noticed until now that she missed that sound. She looked at the hills and realised just how much she missed their beauty and the smell of fresh air. She heard the sound of water running and soon spotted the river. She walked up to it and saw how many fish there were. They hand many colours with scales that looked  like they were made of pearls. She looked up at the sky and appreciated that it was not red.

She then walked on to see that she was so lost in her own thoughts and entranced in the beauty of the landscape that, before she knew it, it was evening. She sat down and opened the rucksack and spotted that there were several sandwiches.

Thank you Kan. She thought as she took out a sandwich and started eating. She tasted the meat that tasted like chicken with lettuce and cucumber. Tasting this she decided that she liked this. Because of this, she ate this slowly to enjoy the taste to the last bite. So, by the time she finished, the sun was down.

She looked up to see lights dotted on the horizon. She climbed to her feet and put on her rucksack and walked to where they were. There she saw twenty boa snake creatures and ten from the snake creatures from the night that she arrived. She took out Peble and put down her rucksack and ran to them as silently as she could. She hid behind a large rock.

“You know, I hope to fill my belly soon.”

“Yeah! I’m starving!”

She looked at the fire.

Wonder if I can control that!

So to see if she could she willed the fire to blast up. They all looked at it and jumped back.

“Oi! Fourty! I know that you like your fire but that’s pushing it!”

“I didn’t do it this time!”

She then dived in and slit the head off one of the boas. Yet they were too confused to defend themselves from another strike. She was able to.use this to take out three before one brought out their swords. She picked up a log of fire and there it at the closest boa and as it struck.to the left and she dived in and struck to the right. Soon another head rolled. 

She ran.on and her sword met the sword of one of the first snake creatures. She kicked him in his stomach as another came from behind. She kicked that one in the stomach. She then felt a slash in the cheek.

She looked to the side and then spotted the snake head in the corner of her eye. She flicked her blade to it and got the head off that and then she saw a blade coming at her. She blocked it and backed away near the fire. She picked up another log and threw it. She willed it to increase the flames and the heads were on fire. She then ran to the next group as it charged at her.

She jumped and drove her blade across. Soon more heads rolled. She then ran on and to another group. Before she could allow them to think she flicked their heads off. She did this again and again until they were all dead.

That was tiring.

She slept well after that.

The following day she arrived at the castle’s gate house. She looked up at the gate house. She saw two snakes in them. She slammed against the door. She raced up as she collected two stones and struck them together. Nothing happened. She struck them again. Then she saw the spark. She willed the fire to spread to the door. Once the inside was on fire, she moved onto the next gatehouse.

“Is that a fire?”

“Oh! Did Forty set another thing in fire!”

Soon the snake creature raced out. She dived at them and quickly dived to the other two. She soon raced over the bridge and to the doors.

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!
