Strena The Voyage Final Part

 The Desert Planes 


Strena, Bash, Zaryb, Chashathrophogh and Cerpheres handed in Captain Treeleaves. Then collected and shared the bounty equally. Then they approached one of the men that attacked Strena.

“Tell me, why did you try to kill me?” She demanded.

“We were ordered to.”

“By who?”

“The servant of the gods.”

“What servant?”

“The Marked Dragon Fox of the East.”

“Does the mark look Animéganesse?”

“Yes.”

Strena saw Zaryb’s cruel face return, no this was the face of Wolfox. He looked at the man with a snarl. She heard him growl like a wolf. She looked at him alarmed. His face seemed more feral and animalistic too.

“Urm…”

“He can’t have the girl. She is mine! She is MINE! SHE IS MINE! ONCE THIS BODY IS DESTROYED, HER’S WILL BE MINE AND I WILL NOT SHARE HER WITH ANYONE!”

Strena was struck with anger.

“I will not!”

He turned to her and grabbed her by the clothing in the chest and pulled her up. She had to grab his wrists.

“Oh yes you will. That sword proves this as your destiny!”

“NO I WILL NOT! You will not do to me, what you have done to my uncle! Have you got that, your Majesty?”

“Then restore to me my true body.”

“Alright, but under the condition that you have me and my Uncle Zaryb alone!”

He grabbed her hand and shook it.

“Deal, Arielsa Zuvé.”

“Fine!”

“I’ll hold you to that!”

Then Wolfox looked at the man.

“Tell me did my old friend send out more to kill her?”

“Yes.”

“All I needed to know!” He said as he bit into his throat and gulped down the chunk. He wiped the blood away. 

Then Zaryb returned. He closed his eyes as he dropped to his knees. He rested a hand on Strena.

“Why did you do that?” He asked with a broken voice.

Strena raised her eyebrow.

“Why? ‘Cause I’m sick and tired of that thing! I’m sick and tired of what it has done to both you and me. That’s why!”

He looked down as he started crying.

“You would, wouldn’t you?”

“Let’s go. We need to, one get out of here. Two, get to the nearest town. There we can dye our hair and find a way to cover this up. Three, think of a new name on the way there. After all, if this Marked Dragon Fox of the East wants me gone, chances are both my names will be a liability.”

“Alright.”

He nodded.

“Also, could you get Wolfox to tell us more about him on our way?”

Soon Wolfox appeared again.

“The Marked Dragon Fox of the East is the Yokai King. Once he got too close to my territory so we had to fight in order to put him in his place. After all, I had no intention to share my territory with anyone. So when we fought, we were both clever and violent. In fact over a hundred on lookers were killed in that fight, but he was clever And had a witch with him and they were able to take me out of my body and seal me away. Until Nazor put me in his little brother’s body. So you know the rest which means that I have no reason to speak of it any further.”

Then Zaryb returned. Strena walked up to him and took his hand and hugged him.

“Are you alright Uncle?”

He looked at her and shook his head.

“I wanna beer.” He moaned.

“We can’t afford that.”

“Weeeell! One can’t hurt!” Purred Cerpheres.

“You have no idea.”

They soon came to an inn after a whole day’s journey. It looked like it was made of sand with a lilac door and open windows.

Before they entered Cerpheres placed a hand on their heads. Then, to Strena’s shock, she saw crimson come down his hair and eclipse the white. He spun them around to look at his work and cupped their cheeks.

“What are you doing?”

“Hmm, little old me? Why! Why don’t you look in the window?”

They did to see that both their hair was crimson and the assassin’s mark was gone!

“How?”

“It’s only a temporary illusion. It’ll wear off in three or four days.”

So they walked in and paid for their rooms and signed in.


Borevers Scar


Cari Scar


“Are you sure about that?”

“Yeah, everyone who knew is dead and you killed the last one.”

“Oh yeah! I guess I did!” He laughed.

Then Strena wrote down her alias.


Relcin Roch


“Why that one?”

“They are the first names of my favorite characters from my favorite story father and mother used to tell me as a child.”

Zaryb smiled as he wrote down his.


Coh Roch


“You loved the same story?”

“Yes.”

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...

Bounty Hunter Bash Labyrinth Lock Part Three

 Dead End They came to a corridor of rosebushes. Bash attached an arrow to her ankle vertically to help mark where they had been. This way, if they came to a dead end, they would be able to retract their steps and go another way. They then came to a crossroads. “Which way?” “Well, not on. After all, that would be far too obvious.” “So that should be where we go.” Strena said, pointing to the right. “No. I think we should go left.” “Why?” Strena looked at Zaryb. “She favours the left. Even though she is right handed.” Cerpheres draped his arm around his shoulder. “And you know that because?” His face became blue as his cheeks became red. Yet his face looked like he was about to throw up. “Don’t ask.” Then Wolfox appeared in his face. “Well, it turns out Grasharlo has certain..” His eyes slid to Strena and back to him then he looked back at Chashathrophogh. “ Needs and Zaryb just so happens to be her type and she would never let him refuse her. I just loved hearing him cry every mo...

The Nine Dragons The Life Dragon Part Thirteen

 The Army Against The Last  Loc had a light nap before waking up to see the fakegels, a name she had come up with after the fight and handed the second borns over to the rest of the first borns. She could see the men also taking a light nap, just like she was. Yet she knew that she did not have time to wake them. So she pulled out her sword as she could not be bothered to get Rock and Stone. There was no time. She ran on and on. To her relief she did not see a line this time but she did hear shouting in the homes of mainly women and some arguing men. Don’t focus upon that. Not when I have a fight to win. She turned to see them all in the air. The first thing she did was push the fire out from under her feet and dropped onto the back of the first one. She blasted the left wing then stabbed down. She ran on and dived to another and did the same. She then dived to the next one and did the same again and again. Making sure to keep up the pace and not let up once. Until she was sna...

Scar A Lonely Escort Part Seven

 The Road Morana looked at the map and the sun was high in the sky, which told her that it was noon. So she spotted that the next place that they were best going to was the road that cut between the mountains that would need to go across. So they walked to it. It was the colour of sand and was very gravely. So she looked at her and noticed that her shoes would be able to withstand the road so they walked on. They soon noticed a group of men coming at them. Shd noticed that they all had knives and knuckle spikes on their knuckles. They all wore black and had their faces obscured by a scarf and a hood. They all looked at the two. Then they started to walk towards them. One brought out a spiked ball on a chain and some had a pair of makeshift numb chucks. Yet she could see that they had their gaze locked up on them. Scar looked at Morana. They both knew what they were and both knew better than to give in to them. Morana pulled out her gun. “Well, well, well, who are these beauties?” A...

Bounty Hunter Bash Labyrinth Lock Part Two

 The New Labyrinth  “Well, this is a turn!” “Shut it!” “When did this get here? I don’t remember this being here on the way here or on the maps.” “I know!” Cerpheres sighed as he leaned in close to his ear. “Wanna check it out?” “Urm, get away from me!” He pouted and shrugged. “Well are you?” “No time. We have to make a way around this labyrinth.” Chashathrophogh explained as he walked to the side. “But it could be fun!” “I don’t care!” “Spoil sport!” He moaned. He rolled his eyes and they walked to the furthest corner of the labyrinth only to be pulled back by Cerpheres. “Cer-” He pointed down and he looked down to see a line of dead mice, rats and cattle of all kinds on the other end. Strena was about to walk on and Chashathrophogh grabbed her by the back and pulled her away. She let out a gasp as she saw all the dead animals. “Not that way.” “Why?” “This is Grasharlo’s spell. One of her signature spells whenever she wants to trap someone.” “W-what?” “What does this mean?” C...

Scar A Lonely Escort Final Part

 Hollow Warmth The moment that the door disappeared Morana knew something was going on. The moment that Beatrice and Britannia ran through the frame confirmed it. Quickly they ran out of the cell as Morana kept her guard up in case of traps. They ran down the corridor and she followed her husband as she gripped her daughters hands tightly as he ran up a flight of stairs and to the right then up another flight of stairs and to the left and soon they left the underground structure. They were greeted by a spherical stone that had a glowing blue substance that was dripping off it. They then heard the sound of weeping as they looked at the glowing runes fade out. They walked on and Beatrice and Britannia tripped over something. They both looked down to see the dead bodies of Ephah and Damia. At this they screamed. Morana went to dive at them only to stumble over something herself and she looked down to see the dead eyes of Charnette looking directly at her. Her eyes widened as she looke...

Strena Acceptance Part One

 A Cuff That Binds 1st Monday Jule  515 years after the 5th Age Of Legends Me and Master Zaryb arrived at Roqaur on Saturday safely. Yet we met up with Touchable Bash who is also the Exile Princess Drew Of Beforebow, daughter of Queen Shedrey and her husband that was assassinated over five months ago along with her baby brother. Also and none other than Chashathrophogh the Bastard Killer and older Bastard brother of Queen Shedrey which makes him Bash’s uncle. As it turns out Master Zaryb are not only friends, it seems that they are best friends. Which I found unexpected as I did not expect him to have friends. Also we wet a creepy man called Cerpheres, which keeps looking at me in a way that is uncomfortable to me. Almost like prey in front of a predator. However I know better than to allow myself to show my vulnerability. Master Zaryb has trained me better than that. Yet I can sense, despite this, he seems to be a fun guy to be around. We went to a pub there where I found out...
