You would think Lyssia would have extra weapons in here tent, but if she does she’s currently using them all, because you can’t find anything! Meanwhile Black Fang is being overwhelmed by Shadows and some of them are successfully ripping open the tent.
You wish you just had a weapon of some sort to fight them with…
Suddenly a glowing short sword appears in your hand. You’re surprised at first, but when a Shadow comes at you from above, you waste you time in swinging your new acquired weapon at it. The moment the sword touches the shadow, it dissolves and screeches before your eyes.
“HEY, you got a sword how about helping me out over here!” Black Fang shouts out seeing noticing your actions while still fighting off the Shadows.
Without hesitation you help him, oddly you no longer feel any kind of fear as you strike down the Shadows. Soon you and Black Fang destroy all the Shadows around the tent, but the rest of the camp is still locked in battle and when you look up MORE Shadows start pouring from the sky. Lyssia comes running towards the both of you.
“Quickly! We have to get out of here and head towards the Zodan ruins! The Captain says he’s going to stay behind to hold off the rest of the Shadows!”
“But…”
“Move!”
You, Lyssia and Black Fang take off into the woods, as the sounds of battle get further behind. There are still a few Shadows in pursuit, but you manage to dispatch them. Eventually you reach an abandoned cottage where you all take refuge in for the night.
“Okay I’m pretty sure we lost the Shadows, we’ll rest here for the night and set off for the ruins in the morning. A question for you though, how did you come across that sword?”
“I dunno, I just wished for something to fight the Shadows with and it appeared in my hand.”
“Oh yeah? You think you could think up something to get rid of ALL the Shadows? That would really help out a lot.” Black Fang says.
“Maybe I could wish myself back home…” you say before Lyssia stops you.
“No wait, don’t do that. Your abilities while obviously powerful are probably not stable. For all you know you might end up in the middle of an ocean! The power of the mind can be very dangerous. The Zodan experimented with it and they’re no longer around anymore. The Nightmare Tyrant wields mind power for evil purposes in his pursuit to conquer everything in his path. I suggest you don’t over abuse your gift. Don’t worry we will get you home eventually though.”
You sure hope so, while you trust Lyssia, you really do want to get home. You can only imagine how worried your Mom is going to be and you really won’t know what to tell her when you get back!
In the meantime you settle down to sleep. Lyssia does as well while Black Fang takes watch since Lyssia points out that he was sleeping all day. Fortunately the night is uneventful and when the morning comes you’re on your way. Black Fang doesn’t travel with you though; in fact he pads off into different direction.
“Why isn’t Black Fang coming with us?”
“He’s not my pet if that’s what you think. He’s a free being allowed to come and go as he pleases, but he’ll be around. He just prefers his own company for the most part. If we get into overwhelming trouble I have complete faith he’ll be around to help. Anyway the Zodan ruins won’t take as long to get to with just us traveling there. We’ll be able to cover more ground and take paths that an army couldn’t travel through.”
As you and Lyssia travel, you and her exchange a bit of information about each others’ respective worlds which you both find very interesting. You make a lot of progress in one day. So much that Lyssia mentions that you should reach the ruins by the next day. She says that she has orders to search the place as much as she can, and then return back to the Empire where you can get help from the wizards to send you back home. She hopes that the Captain and the rest of his soldiers are alright and will eventually reach the ruins themselves before she returns to the Empire. When night comes Black Fang makes his presence known again as you settle down to camp again.
“I feel I should warn the both of you that we aren’t completely alone in these woods. There’s something, possibly several things running around out there. Caught a glimpse of them a couple times, but they seem unnaturally quick.”
“Shadows?” you ask.
“No, they would’ve attacked already. Plus I can smell these things when they’re close by. They might be able to stay out of sight, but they can’t hide their scent. Smells rotten.”
“I had a feeling that we were being watched, I never saw anything though.” Lyssia replies.
“They’ve been staying further away from you two. I think they’ve been watching me a lot more. They probably think I’m a greater threat…and they’re right.”
“Glad to see that you’re…” Lyssia suddenly stops. “Okay I heard that.”
You heard it too and all three of you prepare yourselves. You also start to smell something bad like what Black Fang was talking about. Two demonic looking creatures come jumping down from the trees. One of them is much fatter than the other.
“Well there doesn’t seem to be anymore point in hiding, I’m pretty sure we can take them anyway.” The thinner one says.
“Uh huh, yeah. Um, Jarac which one are we supposed to take back to the Nightmare Tyrant?” the fat one asks.
“Hago, you really are an idiot, sometimes I wonder how we’re even related. The boy you moron!”
“I thought the Nightmare Tyrant only had Shadows working for him.” You say out loud to Lyssia.
“Oh the Nightmare Tyrant has many working for him, boy. However it seems that a new battle front has recently opened up and he has great need of them elsewhere, but fortunately we happened to be in the area… so here we are.”
“So the Nightmare Tyrant relies on half witted demons to do his work now?” Black Fang growls.
“Hey! Only my brother is half-witted! And for what he’s going to do to you, he doesn’t need to be very smart. Enough of this talk, let’s get to it. Are you ready brother?”
Hago doesn’t even reply he just smiles with a toothy grin and advances towards Black Fang. Jarak focuses his attention on you, but naturally Lyssia stands in front of you.
“Run away pretty one if you value your existence, though I’d prefer if you didn’t.” Jarak says and attacks. He’s incredibly quick and manages to hit Lyssia and knock her to the ground. A quick glace sees that Black Fang is struggling with Hago.
You need to act now, you can’t possibly fight either of the demons with just your weapon given how quick they are, but even they wouldn’t be quick enough to fight the power of your mind…
You wish you just had a weapon of some sort to fight them with…
Suddenly a glowing short sword appears in your hand. You’re surprised at first, but when a Shadow comes at you from above, you waste you time in swinging your new acquired weapon at it. The moment the sword touches the shadow, it dissolves and screeches before your eyes.
