Bounty Hunter Bash Unlocked Part Seven

 Across Deathsea: Sirens


It had been two weeks since they had been on the ocean and they had long since given up on trying to find Dark Lord Gajellidor Darcrogh and Dark Lady Grasharlo the day before. Yet regardless of how they would look, they just could not fund them. Yet Bash could not help but feel that they were closed but she could not see even a glimpse of them! The only thing that she would see whenever she could sense him the strongest was in front of that mirror.

“Do you reckon that they can turn into objects?” She asked.

Cerpheres frowned. 

“Only if it’s an animal, why?”

“Every time I sense him it always leads me to that mirror. So what if he can turn into a mirror?”

“No. Not inanimate objects like that.”

“What if they’re in the mirror?” Strena asked. 

Cerpheres and Chashathrophogh shook their heads.

“Not possible.”

“Unless… They’re extraordinarily powerful…”

“Well! They have been able to kick our behinds all this time.”

“True.”

“It would-”


“Death comes for thee,

One is close at hand,

Thine choice will it be,

Answering fate’s command,


Second will lay down his life,

One treasure to be given away,

The last of thine long, long strife,

Forevermore will ye still lay,


Last will feel the knife in the back,

Truth so dark will she see,

Too late to let the truth track,

Trapped in glass she will be!”


“Sirens!”

Quickly they all ran above and on the deck only to see more already jumping off the deck. The next thing they were hearing screams of passengers that were already being torn to shreds as sirens but into their flesh, while others kept singing.

Quickly Bash loaded her bow and shot at the sirens that were singing. This stopped people from jumping to their deaths.

“Cerpheres!”

He raised his eyebrow.

“Say please!”

“Just get everyone asleep will you?”

“I said-”

“Fine! Please get them to sleep will you?”

“Okay!”


“Two shall live by death,

Visit your door he shall never,

Never to take final breath,

Trapped in life forever and ever!”


Bash hit one.

“Now!”

He brought out his violin.


“The one who already has taken his immortal drink,

Will-”


Shoot!

People started to drop.

“No one likes to know too much about the future!” Bash remarked as she fired at one after the other.

She ran forward as she boiled the water and she looked up as she saw the sirens and saw the male sirens. She was taken back at just how handsome they were. Yet she had to get a grip on herself as he opened his mouth but she fired at him. She did this again and again and again before any one of them could open their mouths. After all, the moment that they did, she would be going overboard. So she fired over and over and over again. Her mind became alert as her eyes scanned the horizon as she fired at the first that she saw. Her eyes were wide as she saw more and more of them that she was barely keeping up. Yet she forced herself on as she did, her fingers started to bleed.


“Stay away from books old.”


Her mind went silent.


“Close your eyes from what they show!”


She dropped her bow.


“Your body will lie cold!”


Her hand was on the railing.


“The glass cage only will you know!”


Blast! She came to her senses as she felt herself being pulled up. She looked up to see Chashathrophogh pulling her up as Zaryb shot tiny daggers at the male sirens that popped up above the waves. She was dragged above the railings. She looked back down and closed her eyes and focused upon causing the water to boil. She did this as far and wide as she could. Boiling more and more and their bodies lay above the waves as she heard more singing.

The next thing she knew was that she was catching Chashathrophogh and Zaryb.

“Please! Please! I want to hear!”

“I need to hear!”

She looked all around for the female sirens as she flung them above her and dropped them on the deck. She looked down to see someone in the sea, stabbing the sirens. Then a mouth ripped the throat out. Yet, upon a closer look, she saw that it was none other than Strena!

Quickly she used her magic to pull her up as she slashed one after the other. Soon there was a large pool of blood as she was able to get her above the waves. One dived at her. She beheaded him. Then another and she slashed her. Then another did too and she was able to slash that one until one dived at her leg and took a chunk out of it! She let out a scream as she slashed down. She saw the teeth and kicked the face before the teeth could reach her. She then felt the hand and she was soon back on board.

Cerpheres took her hand and the wound started to heal as Bash shot at one after the other, the moment that she saw them. This caused more and more blood to rise. Yet she could not stop as Chashathrophogh used his magic to boil the water as deep and wide as he could. Soon they heard the screeching as several dived out of the boiling water. They opened their mouths to start their singing, only to have an arrow in their heads.

Some took their dead brothers and sisters and used them as shields and started to sing. That was when the triangle fins came at them.

Soon one was bitten and the rest turned their attention to the sharks. They dived at them and sank their teeth into the sharks. This caused more and more sharks to be drawn to the spot and took a bite out of the nearest siren. This caused more and more sirens to turn to the sharks. They sank their teeth into the nearest shark as the nearest shark bit into their tails. Soon they were locked into this morbid dance of a brawl as the sharks and the sirens sank their teeth into one another as blood rose up. This caused more and more blood to eclipse the water.

This caught the attention of another contender; piranhas came and stripped the dead to the bone as more ate the living ones. Soon the battle was brought to an end. By the time the sun went down, it was time to leave the ship behind.

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...

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...

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...

Strena Acceptance Part Two

 A Secret That Must Be Kept Strena woke from a nightmare the first thing her eyes dropped to was the cuff before putting her diary away. She then looked up to Chashathrophogh, hoping that he did not read it. She knew that the moment that he found out what she was she would be dead. She looked to the side to her Uncle Zaryb. She hoped that he would keep quiet yet, as she did not know Wolfox, she could not be quite certain he would.  They soon woke up and Cerpheres gave her a delicious stew. In fact she had never tasted a stew so good. They all ate slowly before they marched on. As they did, Strena walked closer to Zaryb than the rest. Yet Cerpheres walked up to her and put an arm around her, making her jump slightly. “Are you alright little beauty?” “Urm…yeah. Why?” “It’s just you seem to have a lot on your plate. Wanna share?” He purred. “No.” “Come on! Are you really going to say that in that way?” Yes. “You need to look stronger than that!” “And if I did want to share, you’l...

Strena Acceptance Part Three

 A Truth That Scars They soon came to a town. Strena and Bash looked at the local bounty hunters tavern. “Do we have enough to get to the Desert Planes?” She asked. “So the little princess can speak on her own!” “Shut up!” “Well, do we?” Strena asked, keeping on track. “No. We probably need at least four emeralds and rubies.” Chashathrophogh admitted. “Then I’ll get a bounty and we’ll split the royalties.” “Good thinking Arielsa!” “Strena.” Zaryb and Strena corrected. “Right.” “Also, Bash, go with her. That way she would pick a good job that she can do.” “But don’t underestimate her.” Bash nodded as the girls walked in. She looked at the board. Strena soon picked one and showed it to Bash and she looked down. Herra Of Hogworth 100 Emeralds & 7 Rubies Herra of Hogworth has taken over Herraldt three days ago. Despite our best efforts we could not take him down. So please, free us! Issued 7th Friday Dec 514 Years After The 5th Age Of Legends  “That was the beginning of last m...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon King Part Twelve

 The Third Unit It had been half an hour after eating their lunch when the first hydra was seen. It had three heads. Yet Loc took to the sky and looked down. She saw thirteen on the first row. She then looked on to see that there were eleven rows. Which made her stomach drop slightly. One hundred and forty three… This one is going to take a lot out of us. Even though it will be hard, as long as we are able to get to those stomachs, it won’t be unbeatable… Which means we need to get those eyes taken out as soon as we can. So she looked down. “I have a plan. First eagles, pair up with a man. All of you, aim for those eyes. Once they are all blinded, the rest of the men, and myself, will slice the stomachs. Meanwhile you stay in the air and keep the heads occupied. Right.” “Right.” So fifty of the men climbed on the backs of the eagles and were all in the air. Loc was on Elijah’s back and she looked down. The eagles and the men archers loaded their bows and fired at each eye. They did...

Strena Acceptance Final Part

 Daughter Of A Tyrant  Strena woke up early to the scent of blood. She looked down to see Cerpheres, chopping up a rabbit. She rose to her feet, the events of the night were still fresh in her mind. “What are you doing?” She asked in a dry voice as she walked over to him, the tips of her fingers rested on her blades. “Cooking breakfast!”  “Can I help?” He smiled. “You’re feeling brave!” “Nothing to fear.” He chuckled as he smiled to himself. “Sure. You can help.” He sang as he handed her a group of vegetables. “Cut those up will you?” She took out a knife and started chopping. “Try getting them smaller dear.” She nodded as she did. He then returned to chopping the rabbit. “Mr Cerpheres, could you tell me more about him?” “Who dear?” “My father, Emperor Nazon Zuvé.” He let out a high pitched sigh. She jumped slightly. “Well, I heard he was a great man!” “He was evil.” “Greatness has nothing to do with morality.” “Oh.” “Well, he was known to be a great warlord. In fact, he ...
