Kar pushed harder on Parcival's throat. The threads came out faster as the staff flashed.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA5HvLhucdcx
"Don't bother me." He half-turned, opening his free fist in Han's face, a red intricate rune of light floated above his palm.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAzSfnbLtOEZ
"Back off."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAawr8CHaepa
Han's eyes pinched tight and his mouth curled back bearing his little fangs, he hissed while stepping back. His spectacles slid down resting on his muzzle.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAhWde1M2fej
Her mind was foggy. It was hard to focus. Everyone was doubled and blurry. She rubbed her eyes, it helped a little.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAwe5ymYlBHE
Han ran behind one of the larger containers hacking at a large cable that curved around alongside it. The thick pink liquid gushed out spilling onto the floor.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfXEpTnuGmD
"Stop doing that, you overgrown pin cushion!"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAymWozSIpb0
Kar twisted the base of his staff, it hummed drawing the threads out faster.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA6LYTFrFcKs
"Aetae, spirit of the wind I invoke of you grant your aid once more."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAnD7XAt6Owi
Aetae was slow to come his shadowed form faded. What was wrong?
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAyftBkPbkIs
"The soul requiem of the land begins."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA6kmQkq9FXu
His voice as soft as an owl in flight, his shadowy eyes held a pain.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAV6S5moAedf
"What is it?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAgRD7GKRJvy
He closed his eyes tight wrapping cold hands over hers.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAJik8Cnje2g
"Trust no one."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAl8pCRa7Jiq
He granted speed again, it was lighter then ever before it would wear off soon. Unnamed had said that before, had he corrupted Aetae?
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAi9F3SAK3r1
Aetae spiraled through the floor as if pulled on. His soft cry echoed in her ears. Her heart ached. This was wrong, all wrong.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfCd6ckIHMw
The moans from Parcival grabbed her attention.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAAXVA99jlgZ
She streaked on the floor pulling with her hands yanking on Kars arm.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANANuToVUJWFi
"Imprudent Elf, why won't you just give up?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA4Td5aEjbdb
He lifted his arm up, and her with it.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA2eHBQ8WCxE
"Let them go." Come on, Han run.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfo3u4kIUNZ
Han was on the container across the room hacking away at it's cable.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAVxXHbzgW1Y
The speed spell faded and left. Don't wear off now, come back.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAqutD05xGXs
Kar shook her off. He went over to a support beam and smashed her chest first into it. He repeated this until she slid off his arm and dropped to the floor. The pink glop pooled under her stomach.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAWEp96H2qMr
He bent down and pulled her head up. "Tell them to leave, and make them not want to come back. Do this and they may go."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA0x7u0fX15G
Han crept around the containers, backed away from both of them. His eyes were wide and his fur slick against his body, like a bear cub that was dunked in a river. He crept low, avoiding eye contact.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAKczA4JeL7m
Parcival slid down the wall his skin gray as dusty steel. His eyes closed, and his breathing slowed. Shouldn't do it, but what choice is there? Can't let this human die. No, correction friend. Her throat tightened and became sore.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAn8aLfJ9Pw7
"Well?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAbKRekDlDHo
"Let me help him first."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAjRNaqz1DSV
"Do it quickly."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAkO1lSLLJcl
Kar went over to Han who was wedged on the far side of a container. Kar swore at him every time he dodged away.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAQyWJQJWXaq
"Get out!"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAdiRaRD8VCW
Everything below the hips was numb as she crawled over to Parcival.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAiv3grzMimA
"Spirits take from mine and mend of his. I will pay the cost." It came out as a harsh croak.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANARdXhAn1bgK
She placed her hands on his chest. Stay with me.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAeeiBGIFCNU
Spirits of darkness and light came through the floor. In most cases they refused to be together in one place, as each opposed the other. For this, they would. A taste of life was the only coin that mattered to them, considering how tired they looked they needed it. Aetae wasn't with them.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAMiJR6wn95d
She pointed at Parcival. They swarmed over him joining hands while leaning over his mouth. They breathed out a wispy golden breath that twisted into a stream into his.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAuOLA3hnLV0
They came over to her, holding out her hand, they both touched it. The dark one's touch was like those hidden nightmares that slipped away on waking, ancient and chill. It wasn't evil, more sad then anything. It never really left; became a part of you.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAcjectRDWSx
A part of her left with, as did much of what was left of her energy. The light one came over and did the same. The payment while steep could be afforded. Two years for each spirit wasn't as bad as what some wanted. They flew through a wall and vanished.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAVR88a9Ewns
His breathing was deepening and his skin returned to a healthy color. They were quick that couldn't have been more then a minute.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAokz65sUS4I
"There's a mirror, only you hold. While broken its mending. Friend." She whispered in his ear.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAs5B0423mJe
"Now, get up."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAAFEG7Qodsp
Parcival pushed upright and frowned. "What did you do?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAKAkLcqw2nF
"Nothing for you to worry about." Kar was still busy with Han.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAWaHcA5ikGY
"You have to get out of here. Go." Her arms wobbled, it was hard staying upright.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA9Gqru3cYLB
A flurry of soft padding of feet from behind. Han came over, breathing hard. His eyes wide.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAN7Y5u5o7xL
"I have shown restraint, more then you deserve. She is where she needs to be. Leave."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAx4NlfivBba
She twisted around, Kar stood there.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANApoAOsoHaNC
Parcival shot up, lost his balance and crashed down. "I'm not much use right now."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAbT39rOvlY4
"Crawl out. I don't care how you go. Do it soon, before I decide to drain you both of your life force."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAs2XDrvYVTZ
"Han, get out of here and take Parcival with you."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAebwoiUtVNV
"Are you insane? I can't morally leave you with him!" His tail twitched.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA9zJh4nrI0v
He vanished and stood next to Parcival, his staff pointed at the doorway.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAahje1JFgUL
Han looked at her, his ears and whiskers drooped. "We'll get help."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAwA48QtNxvu
"No, don't come back."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAxMGEkJsMFt
"You don't mean that." His eyes teared up.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfHcUzTQUbs
"I do, I told that silly human to leave me alone. You too. Take him and get away from me. I can take care of myself."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA6Gd7euHs1n
The words hurt and it was hard to look at him.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAIiZZpB1wxe
He scampered over to Parcival, held up his arm over his shoulder, and dragged him out the door.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAZJ34K15Nmy
Hope they make it out. Goodbye. Her eyes stung and watered she rubbed them. She sniffed and wiped her nose on a hand.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAJteBwijp4A
Footsteps behind her, Kar came into view.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAIx1Izpiz1W
"I do regret doing this, but what you have in here ..."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAyRNg7kzhWx
He tapped her head, a pulse spread from his finger tips through her head.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAziSLJEtMOK
"Is needed. It won't be much longer now. I can't say if you'll survive."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAuxx69YwfJ2
She didn't want to answer, but the fogginess increased. Her vision doubled again.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAtNdPknfuye
"What ... did ..." Her head slumped to the side.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANACEWNbHpENs
He shifted and his forum wavered back to the youth.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAB44syBvFWi
"Much better. If you behave and don't fight it you'll feel much better. Try relaxing."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAY2QMGoAngB
"I-don't understand."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAkn2bZk2RKu
"It's simple, I know you house the unnamed one. Only an adapt could survive its toxic spirit."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAsJ2HPC3FqJ
I don't know what you're talking about, she almost said. But, as she thought it a sudden headache stabbed the side of her head.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAbx66wAC4V9
"Gahhh." She ground her teeth and waited for it to pass.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAmQI1d3hS8c
"You'll find out soon enough just what that potion does, it's fully activated now."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAdizNnAHskv
He smiled that hollow smile of his and tapped his own forehead.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAbqMHGpwDYm
"Its effects will be clear soon enough."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANArriCfJuBeV
"This is awful. You're awful." She swallowed a lump in her throat.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAA9BCkQUOa8
"There see honesty. Good girl."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAKFsb4g7Yuc
"Do not fight me, or in this case even think about it."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAzM6Y9xFVpJ
"Undergods burn you!"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAswYRp9TjeS
"Such language." He did a series of complicated hand gestures.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAORK1oJE2v6
"Faster."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfkasoJ9BK5
What? She stood, the numbness left her legs.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAMAUP75yrqY
"I don't feel like carrying you. Follow."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAgcHLsn8Uca
She rubbed her eyes. Don't get tired now.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA4IrTpRwpqz
"We are moving to the Great Hall. Night is coming and it's going to become quite cold."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAJwvdekX3JS
He walked out of the room, she was compelled to follow behind, fighting it just shot pain up and down her spine.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAWrK6yIqHPw
She sucked in air through her teeth the fogginess increased it took over, she walked quickly catching up.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAftekTxDz3D
Asleep or awake? She clamped her hands together. Awake, definitely awake.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA2lw86luKpU
"Tell me, did they cast any protection spell on you?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfvXs8ZSnvP
He walked faster down the hallway.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANADeyZnX2RXM
She tried to resist. This earned her another head pain.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAi4TamjyO7A
"Y--e-s."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAPtyQ8Uh4Ar
"The containers, the liquid was meant to pull Unnamed out by converting him to algae. It don't work as expected. The rest is far too technical to bother to explain it to you."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAXuu8fHBH3f
He turned a corner down into a dark candle lit narrow hallway. The lights flickered and cast shadows that moved about as if they were alive.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAmRc9XsOqA8
The walls were decorated with elaborate paintings. A huge one that spanned from the ceiling to the floor was a woman. She had long blond hair that went down the length of her back. The detail was amazing, as if you reached out to touch it, then it would be as soft as it looked. Her eyes were a bright amber like wolfs eyes, and her lashes thick and long. The rest if her features were of equal beauty.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAu5uqDh9b9G
Kar stopped silent and watched her. She looked at him.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfrmt3fg7rc
"That was my wife of a distant past. You remind me of her. Both of you were obstinate and strong willed." His face hardened and what little softness was in his eyes vanished.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAgWMQrcc7qq
"You will have but no choice to listen."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAd93uwIpltT
He stormed over to her.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAP4mbde1BgR
"You and your people will end this world. Do you have any clue, that what you carry within?" He shook his head.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAfo9O8bLQfg
She leaned back as much as possible. Acid rose in her throat burning.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANABwd6Vx0fwO
He passed under a large archway. Straight ahead was a large fireplace, tall enough a person could stand in it. The wooden Overmantle had carvings of knights with swords and spears drawn. On both ends of the mantle was a large winged griffin. Their wings were held up and curved upward.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAYB55CeNDAc
He moved her over to a wooden high backed chair, this was a few feet from the fireplace. A small table on the left side, with another chair at the end.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANADbr4z53MIh
He sat her down on the one on the right. He was in front of her, his breath smelled of something sweet.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAbxquIRc1lh
"Vow to do as I say and not to escape, I tire of chasing after you, like a misbehaving pup."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAsaDd6AtJlj
She glared at him, and wished he would fall down below in flames to greet the dark gods. To be bound to him by a vow, no, no. Her mind went blank.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAibWxBd2KIW
"Say it."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAF2xLEf9rxU
He put a hand on her right shoulder squeezing it, the pain was intense and seared the skin, wisps of smoke wafted through his fingers right on the still healing scratch.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA1HCd0nmcFc
"I refuse."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANADMRwKsxH04
A vow can never be broken, doing so always incurred Olenus wrath. Have to fight this. She sat up straight and looked though him, not at him. Another jolt of pain singed through her again she ground her teeth. Every hair on her arms stood up. His nails grew longer and he dug them into the scratch widening it.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAsm0iCS0WZS
She orbited her shoulder and leaned back, pushing on his chest with a hand.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANABEcKcHRY9f
"Get off!"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAzMn3YtA43R
A Dusk rat came over to Kar.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAHNGtx6mAkg
"Master the man things are still down stairs."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA0uiMg8Rqq2
"I don't have much to say, but that what I say you should weigh carefully. What do you think will happen if you continue to refuse?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANANTuzlcVLnE
The fireplace caught her attention and she stared at it.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAQLWBH8xQ10
He moved close to her face next to an ear.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAY3uHo549VY
"Do it, or I'll bring your friends back and have them take the potion. What I will make them vow would be of a far-less pleasant nature. The human how long do you think he'll be able to hold out?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANACMykPuIrRZ
He held up a finger.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA9kRasfHq35
"I say a minute or less, he's so young ..."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA372V6yEQIS
She hung her head, her eyebrows twitched as she fought back a snarl that pulled on her lips and face. It was true. Parcival was at least thirty years younger ...
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA6AQPOsKuMa
"I vow ... to do as you say, and not to escape."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAoL1GjTt8hN
The clamp of the vow became physical, a small feather etched on the top of her hand, like a light scar long healed. A reminder from Olenus.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAzJgc3pCOf4
Her eyes burned they stung as she fought back the tears.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAO4t5tT21Z6
"One more thing. If the others return you will protect me at all costs or that what you drank will instantly kill you."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAaz0s90IGgM
He placed his other hand under her chin and squeezed it.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ2Dgt3Bpx
"I'm being kinder than you know. The others how much do you trust them?"
1004Please respect copyright.PENANABEIHJEvSAj
"Far more than you."
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAjKSaSMPbow
She blinked rapidly and breathed in a few breaths. He didn't say I had to give direct answers.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANA8SmXLArxkH
His eyebrow twitched. He squeezed again and pulled his hand away roughly. Kar went over to the fireplace and flicked his fingers. The logs in it sparked and soon a fire started.
1004Please respect copyright.PENANAtQwjqpjQtv
