RPG The Dragon Riders of Celebrynn [M - LSV]

[Delta]

[FONT=Book Antiqua][COLOR=DarkGreen]
The lady Rider clucked her tongue anxiously. While Caramel busied herself with cushioning the fall of their Riders, Vanilla scanned the field for a good specimen. Her restless right hand stayed on the hilt of a gladius on her side.
[i][Vanilla, concentrate.]
Remember the plan.
[Have you got the rope?]
Check
[Sword?]
Right here.
[Make sure it cuts through the hide.][/i]

Moments later, they were in pursuit of an enemy dragon. It didn?t take long for Caramel to catch up. They flew above the black dragon and kept its speed. The enemy rider?s sword flashed, slashing the air between the two dragons in vain. Vanilla whipped out Dulcet and sent a tune to the dragon?s Rider. Immediately, he fell into a senseless heap on his dragon?s back.

[i]On three. One?[/i]
She slung the coil of rope on her left shoulder.
[i]Two?[/i]
The lady Rider stood on her dragon?s back.
[i]Three![/i]

Vanilla jumped on to the back of the dragon below them. Caramel flew off and positioned herself below them, ready to catch the Riders should they fall. The dragon flinched, surprised at the weight that hit his back. It buckled wildly causing the lady Rider stay low as she held on to the Rider and the reins. Vanilla quickly bound the other with rope. She drew the gladius, cut the rope and threw him to her waiting Dragon.

[i]Well, then! Let?s get this bugger down.[/i]

The dragon, sensing a different Rider now held its reins, upped its efforts to throw the foreign Rider from its back. Good thing the dragon had spines; Vanilla held on them for support as she made her way to the back of its head. She tied herself to a horn with the remaining rope that she had. Without much difficulty, she rappelled down.
When she got under the dragons chin, she felt the hide in a few place and struck the beast at the softest part of the chin.

[i]No good! I?ll nick it from the other side!
[Other side? You don?t mean---]
Heads up![/i]

She climbed up right in front of the dragon?s mouth. The dragon, seeing the Rider suspended in front of her, started snapping. Vanilla kicked off from its face with each snap and flicked the rope sideways. She planted her feet firmly on its upper lip and clung tightly to the rope with her left hand. A gust of hot vapor shot from the dragon?s nostrils. Walking to the left, she made her way to the center of its head, right between its eyes.

[i]Caramel, look! A cross-eyed dragon!
[Vanilla!]
Fine, fine! Live specimen, live specimen, live specimen?[/i]

She kicked off and released a length of rope. The dragon, instead of closing its maw immediately, waited for the Rider to swing back. It rolled its tongue back, exposing the soft raw flesh of its mouth.

?THERE!?

The gladius flew from her hand and pierced deep into the dragon?s lower palate. She let go of the rope, swung to the dragon?s chin, and held on to a spike. The dragon shook violently, its black tail thrashing the nearby dragons. Suddenly, it froze. A gale rose from the ground catching the plummeting dragon. It set the dragon gently on the ground.

[i][Is it still alive?]
Yeah. The clod?s still breathing.
[Thank goodness.]
How about yours?
[Still asleep.][/i]

Caramel alighted beside them, enemy Rider in tow. Vanilla untied herself from the beast and dusted her pants. A weird grin spread on her face.
?That was fun. Let?s do it again!?
?Get yourself another dragon, then.?
?I was just kidding. Whew!?
The dragon replied with a snort. "Adrenaline high..."

[b]OOC:[/b] Good to have you back, amgoddess!
[/COLOR][/FONT]

[Heero Darkangel]

OOC: good to see you back on amgoddess!

Heero looked around, these were definately no ordinary dragons...they were more stronger than the others, Heero drew his sword, as two def dragons flew towards him and Cyrus, He stood up and ran down the back of Cyrus, grabbed Cyrus's tail and then Cyrus flung Heero towards one of the dragons, while flying threw the air his sword drove into the heart of the rider, the dragon screamed and so did it's rider but when the rider fell..the dragon didn't, the def dragon spun around as Heero decended into a free fall, Heero turned to see the dragon following him, it then wrapped it's claws around Heeros body, Heero cried out in pain as it sqeezed his rib cage which was still damaged from the previous fight.

Cyrus felt Heero's pain and then dove down towards the def Dragon

The def Dragon was just about to take Heero's head off when Cyrus landed on the back of the Dragon menacingly tearing at the Def Dragon in a desperate attempt for it to free Heero...but it wouldn't

Heero managed to get his sword and he began to slash at the dragons leg, the dragon screamed again and sqeezed Heero tighter, in an immense pain Heero let out a shrill cry as did Cyrus, Heero suddenly dropped his sword as he felt a couple of his ribs brake within him....

At that moment a burst og lightning struck down serging straight threw Cyrus and into the dragon, The Def Dragon let out a blood curtling cry as its body was torn apart and exploded, Heero was then thrown away from Cyrus who was suddenly drenched in Dragon blood and they both plummeted to the ground

Cyrus hit the ground hard while Heero landed in a shallow stream which turned red from the Def Dragons blood whos body landed half in the stream and half on land

Heero's eyes blinked as he looked up at the raging war above them

Cyrus slowly moved his head closer to where Heero lay in the stream, Heero turned his head slowly

'Heero...' whispered Cyrus as he looked at his fallen rider

'I'm....damn it hurts....' he whispered looking at Cyrus

'I know...' smiled Cyrus weakly

'Cyrus...we need to get up...we need to help them...we can't give up yet..' whispered Heero as he slowly crawled from the stream, pain serging threw his body as he lay down beside Cyrus

'I know...as long as your certain..' spoke Cyrus as he slowly stood up, he then became dizzy but he then shook it off, 'Heero..your hurt to bad now,'

'I'll be ok...I won't give up and I wont go down this easily...' smiled Heero weakly as he then began to get off the ground..pain shot threw his body and he dropped to one knee

'Heero!,' exclaimed Cyrus as he jerked

Heero looked up at Cyrus, 'Help me...' whispered Heero as his vision began to blurry

Cyrus carefully picked up Heero who clenched his teeth in pain, Heero sat on Cyrus's back

'Heero...are you sure you want to do this?' questioned Cyrus whos eyes swelled with tears

'Yes,' smiled Heero as Cyrus let out an sad cry and took off across the field, found Heero's sword and then they took to the sky...Heero's vision began to blurr but he shook it off as they joined the fight again

[GuyYouMetOnline]

Valo was riding Angelus, but he was letting her do all the work. He had heard Zeddrick tell Brielle which dragmon was the 3000+ one. Valo compared it to the other attacking dragons. [Angelus, we've been fed some serious bullshit,] he sent. [That dragon's definatly older than the rest, but it's not the big 3000+ one. Zeddrick once again underestimated our intelligence. Either that, or he thinks that that dragon actually is the 3000+ one, in which case he's the stupidest commander in world history.]

[I must agree with you,] Angelus replied. [That dragon has an age advantage, but not one so huge. I'd say a hundred years old at the least. That thing's not Plejalta.]

[Definatly not. Let's fall back. We need to stay near Zeddrick. He'll be trying something, that's for sure. Whatever it is, we can't let him get away with it.]

[Gelgoog Pilot]

Ragnarok swerved threw the enemey forces untouched. Every soldier recognized the death dragon cheering as they saw it draw near. He had stayed by his sister's side until the fighting intsnsified. While she was preoccupied he sole away to the small flight hoovering in the distance, the command flight. He was saluted as he reached the generals there.

"Sir! It's a pleasure to see you safe. What are you orders?"

" Are the new legions here?"

"Yes, yes they are...the reched things are already nearing the city, these riders are too busy with us. "

"Call off this attack...await for me at my residence with our most loyal men, His lordship will think you dead."

"Commander!? I thought you were going to finish this war before him...."

"Plans have changed...Meet me there...I may be a while...I'll deal with the abominations here. That fool of a King should have never messed with our people."

"Agreed, I'll do as you ordered..."

[So....we're moving ahead with out coup de ta?]

"Yes, He has gone too far.....Look, that pain in the ass Valo is approaching...Let us get back to my sister."

[Of course]

Ragnarok passed by the Light rider, causing him to turn in persuit. She lead him back to Brielle's side when the horns sounded. The retreat of dragons began, in only a few moments the skies were left to the defenders of Celebrynn.

"I had better inform my sister, the legion will be reaching the outskirts of the capital by now....I told them to ignore these riders...."

[Heero Darkangel]

Heero lay hunched over on the back of Cyrus

'They seem to be retreating,' said Cyrus

Heero was in too much pain to notice, sweat beads formed on his brow and upper lip

'Dammit,' growled Heero, 'Lets get back to the castle and see whats going on,'

Cyrus gave a slight nod

They landed back in the castle grounds and Heero slowly slid off Cyrus who helped him down carefully

Heero looked around, 'I think i'll just sit for a moment,' whispered Heero as he slid down the leg of Cyrus and sat on the ground

'Heero...you must get someone to take a look at you...I can feel your pain and it's not good,' whispered Cyrus but Heero didn't hear him as he passed out and his breathing became shallow

Cyrus slowly moved to where Heero ended out laying down, Cyrus then put his paws around Heero but made sure not to touch him, Cyrus then curled the rest of his body around Heero as if to protect him and rested his head over his claws making sure not to hurt Heero and he then went into a state of protectiveness and growled at anyone who walked towards him and Heero...Cyrus could feel Heero's pain and a tears dropped from his eyes, he then lifted his head and looked at Heero who lay beneath him

Cyrus then gave Heero a slight nudge..but Heero didn't stir, so he then nudged Heero harder..but still Heero didn't stir, Cyrus knew that Heero had blacked out and he began to worry...he then nuzzled his nose against Heero and lay there looking at his fallen rider...his fallen friend

'Please don't leave me here Heero,' whispered Cyrus as tears rolled down the beasts face, Heero then opened his eyes aftering hearing what Cyrus said

'I'm not going to leave you here...I'm just tired...,' whispered Heero as if straining to speak and suddenly he blacked out again

[Redemption]

[COLOR=Purple]When the Zerverian forces started retreated, the sky became less crowded. Brielle sighed with relief.

[I] I hope this was Zeddrick's doing.[/I]

At that precise moment, Zeddrick approached her.
" Brielle, I have something important to say," he said.
" Did you tell them to retreat?" she asked.
" Yes."
" Why?"
" Because there is a larger, more brutal force heading to the capital."
" WHAT?!?!" Scythe dropped a little in the air, feeling the impact of her emotion. Ragnarok levelled with him.
" I told you to ignore these riders - they were just a diversion."
" You did not!!" Brielle defended, her temper rising.
" I did. You just were not in the mood to hear me!" Zeddrick replied acidly. Brielle whipped out her sword and held the tip to his throat.
" Don't you dare threaten me..."
Zeddrick just held Brielle's cold stare.
" Now," Brielle started, " You are going back to the capital, accompanied by Valo and Vanilla along with her catch. There you will hold off the forces for as long as you can and without killing yourselves. Is that understood!"
All Zeddrick do was stare.
" I'll take that as a yes." She turned to Valo. " VALO! You, Vanilla and Zeddrick are going back to the capital. Zeddrick has just informed me this was a diversion. Go now. Vanilla, take your catch to the commander. I know of what he wants to do with it." The two nodded and headed out with Zeddrick and Ragnarok flying in front of them.

In all of the confusion, and Brielle's anger, she had not seen Heero fall. Once her orders were obeyed, she looked around for her partner. Shock came over her when she saw him laying on the ground, unconscious, with Cyrus wrapped around him protectively. Scythe didn't need directions. He landed with great speed, the ground groaning underneath the force of landing. Brielle jumped off and sprinted over to Heero. Clutching him with tears rolling down her cheeks, Brielle softly whispered his name.
" Heero....Heero..." A white light came from her hands, healing Heero's internal injuries.

[Heero Darkangel]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue][I]*In Heero's mind*
Heero lay floating in a dark surreal part of his mind, his body felt cold and sore and he shievered...he could feel himself beginning to slip away when he heard a soft voice speak his name...it echoed sweetly around him..

'Brielle....' he whispered, at that moment a white light engulfed his body...it was warm...and wonderful...He looked around him...he raised his hand and touched the glistening white light...and he felt it rush through his body...

'Heero...Heero,' came Brielles voice again and Heero smiled as he let the white light gracefully surround him.............[/I][/COLOR]

*Out of Heero's mind*

Brielle had buried her face in Heeros chest as he rocked him back and forth in her arms with tears streaming down her face...Suddenly she felt a warm hand touch her cheek, in fright she lifted her head to find Heero looking at her

'Heero!!,' she gasped as he smiled at her and she held him tighter, 'Heero,'

Heero then slowly sat up and looked at her with warmth in his eyes, he gently touched her cheek again

'Thank you...' he smiled and she kissed him on the lips and then hugged him, 'I'm sorry for scaring you...I didn't mean to,'

'I'm just glad you came back...' she smiled still with tears running down her face, Heero wiped the tears away and kissed her again

His body still felt sore but it wasn't as bad, he then looked at Cyrus who nudged him

'Yes I know...I'm sorry...I didn't mean to do that to you,' said Heero as he patted Cyrus's nose as he then lent against a tree

'Are you ok?' questioned Brielle

'I am now,' Heero smiled at her weakly, 'Where's Zeddrick, Valo and Vanilla?'

'They've gone back to the capital...there's something they're going to take care of,' replied Brielle not telling him the full story knowing full well that he'll take off to join them...and his condition she couldn't let him go..........

[GuyYouMetOnline]

When they reached the castle, Valo wasted no time. He gathered every Rider together, except for brielle and Heero, who weren't back yet. vanilla would deliver her catch in a few minutes. First, there was business to take care off.

"We have a problem," Valo told everyone. He indicated Zeddrick. "That man caused it. Zeddrick revealed his presence to the enemy Riders that our squad just encountered. true, he convinced them to retreat, but that's worse than not doing so. we're about to lose our advantage. Ilthazar will know that we have Zeddrick, and assume that we have Branit, too, which we did until Zeddrick killed him. He'll know that we know about his breeding program. He'll plan based on the knowledge of our knowledge. there's only one way to get around this, and that's to move before he can prepart. that means that we leave as soon as Brielle and Heero get back."

"Are you insane?" Zeddrick exclaimed. "Do you know what's coming?"

"Some sort of super-soldier, if you're to be believed," Valo said. "But don't worry. You'll be staying here, along with a couple others to keep an eye on you. You can't be trusted, Zeddrick. you've prooved that multiple times."

Zeddrick opened his mouth to reply but valo held up his hand. "Quiet! I need to concentrate! We're about to get a message from a sentry beacon."

Valo had noticed that a sentry beacon was lit. The beacons all had large wood piles, which were lit to send a message. the message was sent by taking a large piece of wood and blocking the recipient's view of the fire. By blocking and unblocking for specific amounts of time, a message could be sent (OOC: think Morse Code with fire). Valo knew the timing, and therefore could interpret the message. [i]Incomming toward palace. One dragon with rider. Extremly large.[/i]

Valo turned back to Zeddrick. "You and I both know that Plejalta wasn't among the forces we just encountered. Well, we have an extremly large dragon coming this way. It has to be Plejalta."

"Then you're all dead. You aren't powerful enough to kill Plejalta."

"Power isn't all that matters. Everyone, prepare for battle! Someone tell the soldiers to prepare in case these super-soldiers are real and on their way." he faced Zeddrick again. "Who is the rider?"

"Does it matter?"

"It might. Who is he?" Pause. "Last chance, Zeddrick. Who is Plejalta's rider?"

Zedrick locked eyes with Valo. "Ilthazar."

---------------------------------

OOC: Didn't screw anything up there, did I? Amgoddess, tell me if I did, and I'll edit.

[Redemption]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle looked at Heero lovingly. He was hurt badly but thanks to Scythe's healing powers, he was safe....for now. Turning her head, she looked towards the capital.
" What's the matter?" Heero asked slowly.
She turned back to him. " Nothing nothing. Just worried about the others, that's all," she said, feeling guilty about lying to his face. Heero nodded and lent against Cyrus. Brielle again turned to face the capital.

[I]Please let them be all right Creator...[/I]
________________________________________________

Meanwhile....

Kai watched everyone rush around him like bees at their hive. Something was going on. The baby golden dragon snuggled into his chest some more. He sighed. He looked around, hoping Brielle wuld pass him and tell him what the hell was going on.

A piercing scream echoed through the capital. Chilling...blood-curtling scream. Kai knew instantly that it was Ilthazar. Running out into the open, a huge black dragon soared the sky over the capital. A man in black armour rode this monstrous beast. Kai watched the Elemental Riders gather and converse. Two were missing. Brielle and Heero. Clutching the baby dragon in his arms, Kai ran down to them. Seeing him approach, Vanilla bowed quickly. The others followed suit.
" Where's Brielle?" he demanded.
" She is fine love. Just looking after Heero after his nasty accident," Vanilla replied soothingly.
" Look, your Majesty. It would be wise to stay in the palace until after the battle," Valo requested.
" No. I'm sick and tired of hiding. I want to fight!" Kai growled angrily. Valo took a step towards him.
" Your Majesty. Killing yourself will not avenge your parents," Valo replied, hitting the nail right on the head. Kai stood there shocked, half knowing he was right, half not knowing that he was wrong. Valo turned and commanded the Elemental Riders to take off. Before Valo took his seat on Angelus, Kai grabbed him by the shoulder.

" I want to fight. A king needs to show his people never to be afraid."
Valo looked shocked. A smile then crossed his face.
" Who will you ride?"
Kai looked down at the dragon in his arms. He dearly wanted to ride the little one but it was definitely too young. Valo smiled.
" Too soon my king." With that, he and Angelus soared into the sky. Kai stood there, stunned. Anger then took him. Like Brielle, when anger took over him, Kai was a force to be reckoned with. Clenching his fists, Kai's eyes glowed gold as an aura of white mist surrounded him. The baby golden dragon reacted to this. It leapt from Kai's arms and expanded its wings. A golden glow surrounded it. Within seconds, the baby dragon was not a baby anymore. It grew to the size of the 3000-year old dragon. A golden saddle appeared on its magnificent back. Kai jumped into it.
" Lets go, Isis."
__________________________________________

Brielle looked from Heero to the capital, seeing black figures of dragons clash in the sky. Scythe looked too.
" Brielle..." the dragon growled.
Brielle turned to her partner, seeing his chest glow and Cyrus's too. The Dragon Queen...... Turning her head towards the capital, a shaft of golden light exploded from the sky and singled out one dragon.
" It has begun...."
[/COLOR]

[GuyYouMetOnline]

[i]All right,[/i] Valo thought, [i]things are getting strange. Better go with it. Qustion possibility later.[/i] [Angelus, it's time for a dive.]

[Kai,] Valo sent, [angelus and I are doing a dive maneuver. we'll be coming in from above, and we'll be coming in fast. Keep Plejalta busy for us.]

Angelus flew up, positioned herself correctly, and dove. As he did with Zeddrick, Valo lept off Angelus. Angelus flew under Plejalta as Valo slammed into Ilthazar, knocking him off. The two fell onto Angelus, who flew very low and dumped hem on the ground before returning to the battle with Plejalta.

Valo rolled away from Ilthazar and stood up. Ilthazar did the same. "You might want to take that armor off," Valo said. "One can't move worth a damn in that. Sure, it's harder to get through a suit like that, but it's easy to stun you long enough to get it off, and I can still break your neck."

"In a one-on-one fight, you are most certainly correct," Ilthazar agreed. "So, why did you tell me? right now, you have an advantage. Why would you give it up?"

"Because I want to see you. I want to be able to see your face when I kill you."

"Confident, I see. Well, very well. You are right. I am at a disadvantage in this suit." With that, Ilthazar removed the armor. "Of course, I assume that both of us are wearing chain-mail armor."

Valo nodded. "Of course. It provides some protection, and it doesn't impare movement. Now, I do not know what powers you have, if any. But let's ignore them. I want this to be decided by weapon skill."

"Foolish, but very well. Youj are at a disadvantage, though, because I have never lost."

Valo laughed. "I know this. If you had, you'd be dead." He drew his poles, and Ilthazar drew twin swords. "Now, King Fuck-tard, are you ready? Let's do this."

----------------------------------------

OOC: Again, if I screwed anything up, please tell me, and I'll edit.

[Delta]

[FONT=Book Antiqua][COLOR=DarkGreen]
[i]Hey! A gold dragon! That? that?s a rare one, isn?t it?
[Indeed, it is!]
Lovely![/i]

After she was done ogling at the gold dragon (and emitting a few love bubbles), Vanilla planted a boot on her captive?s back, tightened the rope and handed him to a nearby soldier. ?A favor, love? Do watch this man for me ?til we get back.? The grim look on the soldier?s face disappeared as the lady Rider gave him a smile. Her voice bagged not only her target but also three other soldiers around him. She sent for the researchers and bid them to watch over the incapacitated dragon.

[i][Let?s go.]
No need to rush me. I?m practically useless up there.[/i]

Her recent flirting with the soldiers left her feeling a bit impish so before they took off. she went behind Zeddrick and whispered in his right ear: ?A live Rider. Just as you wanted.?

?Stop tarrying here, Miss Rider. Your knight has lost his wits and will need support.? Zeddrick replied.
?After that little scene up there, I'm surprised that you've energy enough to upset Valo." She leaned him against a large piece of rubble and winked at him. "Right then. Pray for us, love.?

The silver dragon soared to a height level to Isis. They maintained their distance from the golden dragon for awhile, observing the scene between the Rider of Light and the grim Zerverian ruler. The latter had just taken off his armor and was prepping for a tussle with Valo. Vanilla turned to the King who was now assessing the situation, his eyes hidden beneath his bright helm.

?What now, Sir??
?Stay here and lend support when needed.? And with those words, he dove to meet Plejalta.

[i]Oh yes. The excitement never stops.[/i]

[/COLOR][/FONT]

[GuyYouMetOnline]

Valo began with a standard double-strike, one pole high and the other low. Ilthazar blocked both with his swords, sidestepped a kick from Valo, spun around, and did a double-strike of his own. Valo ducked the high sword and blocked the low one with one pole while swinging the other one at Ilthazar's head. Ilthazar ducked, spun, and atacked with both swords. Valo parried both and swun at Ilthazar. Ilthazar blocked in the classic 'swords-crossed standoff' manner.

"Not bad, fuck-face," Valo said.

"You are a rude one."

"No shit." Valo broke off, spun, and attacked. He and Ilthazar alternated attacking and blocking/parrying. eventually, they crossed weapons and paused again.

"You are quite skilled," Ilthazar remarked. "I don't suppose I could intrest you with a position in my force?"

"Not even if pigs fly, hell freezes over, or you stop being the biggest shit-fucker in existence."

"I have never met one as rude as you."

"That would be because you'd kill them if they so much as said 'crap'." Valo spun a pole low, attempting to knock Ilthazar's legs out from under him. Ilthazar jumped over it, only to have Valo literally slam into him. Ilthazar attempted to drop to the ground and flip Valo over him, but Valo was one step ahead. He spun to the side and kicked Ilthazar. Ilthazar rolled to his feet, swords still in hand. Likewise, Valo still held his poles, but he nearly dropped them when he saw the back of Ilthazar's left hand. It had a square-shaped mark on it. "You have [i]got[/i] to be shiting me," Valo said.

"Why would that be?"

"It isn't. Or it is. It doesn't matter. Our relationship is unchanged. I don't care who you are, chicken-fucker. You're dead."

[Heero Darkangel]

Cyrus stirred behind Heero, Heero sat up and looked around, He knew that there was something wrong but he couldn't place a finger on it

Looking at Brielle who seemed distant and deeply concerned Heero raised an a hand and placed it on hers

'What's going on?' Questioned Heero as Brielle's head snapped back to look at him, 'Brielle please!,'

Heero then began to stand up, his legs were weak but he used Cyrus as leverage, He groaned as pain shot through his body,

'Heero please No!,' begged Brielle as she tried to stop him but then she saw his face turn cold and his eyes grow distant

'....The....Capital....,' were the words that trailed softly out of his mouth, he slowly looked down at Brielle, who now stood infront of him

'Please Heero....' she whispered

'You lied..to me....why?' he whispered as He looked back at the capital as he saw flames flare up towards the sky...suddenly his legs gave way and he fell to the ground, Brielle dropped down beside him

'Please understand....your too weak, I can't bare to loose...someone who I love..not again...just rest abit please....' she spoke with tears in her eyes

'But we can't sit here while the others are fighting...we have to do something,' he said looking at her, Brielle knew that Heero would say something like that....at that moment Heero gently raised his hand to her face and stroked her cheek, ' I love you more than life itself Brielle...I'll die for you many times over....I can't rest while the others fight....,'

Tears ran down Brielles face and he wiped them away, he then kissed her passionately on the lips and then held her close

OOC: Ok I haven't been on for about a week...so if i've done anything wrong amgoddess please tell me

[Redemption]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle pulled away from Heero's embrace. Her mind was like a battlezone. One side saying go back to help the others with Heero, the other saying knock Heero unconscious and leaving him there so he wouldn't get more hurt. She held her head.
" Oh Kai..."
Heero looked at Brielle with concern on his face. " What about your brother? I thought he was a vegetable."
" Far from it," Brielle replied. She looked Heero in the eyes. " Kai is the King of Celebrynn and now, the Rider of the Dragon Queen."
" WHAT?" Heero said, stumbling back. Cyrus supported him.
" I know. Its strange. But I knew it would happen one day. Scythe and I both knew," Brielle said. She looked up at Heero. " Heero, I want you to stay here. I know its impossible to talk you out of it but....I'm sorry...."
" Sorry about what?" he asked.
" This...." With lightning speed, Brielle whipped out her sword and knocked Heero unconscious with it. Heero dropped to the ground like a ton of bricks. Cyrus roared in anger. Scythe roared back. Brielle, using Scythe's magic, imprisoned both Cyrus and Heero in an energy cage. It would only be broken when Heero was fit enough to fight.
" You will regret doing that Brielle," Cyrus snarled. Brielle looked at him with tears rolled down her face freely.
" I know. I'm sure you'll reap your revenge Cyrus...."

With that, Brielle hopped onto Scythe and flew to the capital on top speed.
____________________________________________________

Meanwhile....

Kai looked down at Valo and Ilthazar fighting in each other. Isis growled viciously.
" I know Isis. Let Valo do what he's got to do. Then it will be our turn," Kai said, sounding like he had matured into adulthood.[/COLOR]

[Heero Darkangel]

Cyrus's cry roared out across the land as he watched Brielle and Sycthe fly off

'Brielle you can't do this!!!....Brielle please!!!!!,' roared Cyrus as he tried to brake the energy field but it was no good, Cyrus looked down at the unconcious Heero and nudged him gently..but there was no response

This was the first time anyone had caged Cyrus and Heero

After a few minutes Heero awoke, blood ran down the side of Heeros head from where Brielle had struck him

'Heero....' whispered cyrus as he helped Heero off the ground

'What the hell?...Why'd she do that!!!!..I can't believe she'd do this to me!!!!!,' roared Heero as Cyrus supported him from behind

'Neither can I,' whispered Cyrus

Heero's rage burned in his eyes as they watched the capital blazing...smoking covered the sky...distant cries of Dragons filled the air

Heero drove his sword deep into the ground and he grabbed the cage suddenly it sent a shock through his body

'Dammit...BRIELLE!!!!,' roared Heero as he dropped to his knees, Cyrus lowered his head as if he was ashamed

'She caged us...as if...we were animals...and we couldn't be trusted,' whispered Heero as rain began to pour down and the ground beneath them turned to mud....the echos from the war could still be heard...

As minutes passed, the rain kept falling...Heero and Cyrus were soaked...at that moment..they heard it...the deep thudding of wings getting closer

Heero and Cyrus were suddenly alert as they looked up and saw a horde of deformed dragons flying over them, Heero gripped his sword and stood up, hoping that they wouldn't be spotted but the glowing from the energy cage made their exsistance known

'Well well well...what do we have here?' questioned A deformed dragon rider from the sky as they turned and flew down towards Heero and Cyrus,

They watched the horde land and surround them

'Now this is all I need,' groaned Heero as him and Cyrus became agitated

'So....let me see....looks as though The Princess just served your death sentence,' smiled a rider as he walked up to the cage

'Shut up,' growled Heero as Cyrus groaned angrily

'Oh whats the matter....feeling a little locked down are we....can't go and play with the others,' laughed the rider

'Shut up!!!,' roared Heero as lighting struck down from the sky and the deformed dragons dodged it

'You must feel betrayed about now...we heard that you and the princess were...as you say...a couple....' smiled the rider at that moment another whispered in his ear

'Ah..sounds like a good Idea,' whispered the man and he smiled at Heero who frowned, 'Looks as though we have a special gift for our King Ilthazar..all we need to do is wait for the energy field to break and your ours! which should be any minute now,'

Heero looked at them as they laughed, Heero looked at the energy field and saw that it was slowly fading

'Believe me...I won't go without a fight...,' smiled Heero as Cyrus roared angrily

'And if I were you I'd take a look around...because you really have no choice in the matter,' smiled the man

Heero looked around and saw thirty archers on both sides standing close to the cage aiming at Cyrus

'Boy if you don't put your sword down I will make them fire upon your dragon and if your dragon does anything then they will fire upon you...' smiled the man tauntingly

Heero looked around as he could see the cage fading and he looked back at Cyrus who looked at him with a deep concern and saddness, Rain poured down harder around them as Heero looked at the man..slowly...his sword dropped to the ground and landed in a puddle of mud and the deformed rider smiled as the cage disappeared and ten riders ran towards them, they chained Heeros hands up and put a metal choaker around his neck, with a chain that hung around the deformed riders Dragon which locked Heero to the ugly beast, while they chained Cyrus legs up and made it so he couldn't go far when walking and they then chained Heeros metal choaker to Cyrus's neck, Heero slowly got on Cyrus, long chains dangled from Heeros neck, to Cyrus and to the deformed leaders Dragon, and they took to the sky dragging Heero and Cyrus with them

Heero looked down and saw his sword slowly being covered by muddy water, he looked around and he couldn't tell where they were going...

OOC: Well....if I've stuffed it up amgoddess..shock me with a pm ok...and i'll change it....ok..it isn't a major twist in the story i was just having abit of fun thats all...just thought i'd get caught...just to add a slight twist to the story seens how we were able to catch two of Ilthazars men and how you caged me in ..LOL..which was very cool..LOL..but your call amgoddess ok

[GuyYouMetOnline]

They went at it for another minute or so before crossing weapons again. "Tell me something," Valo said. "How hard was it to abandon her?"

Ilthazar spun and attacked, but Valo was ready for him. He dodged and countered. Ilthazar blocked and attempted a leg sweep. Valo jumped over it, and the two crossed weapons again.

"Abandon who?" Ilthazar asked.

"The woman who bore your child." Valo swung at Ilthazar's head. Ilthazar blocked and thrusted forward with his other sword, forcing Valo to step back. Ilthazar moved in, but Valo planted his poles on the ground and vaulted over Ilthazar. He spun to face the man as he landed.

"Just what child would that be?"

"Here's a hint," Valo replied. "I don't think he likes you very much."

"And just what gives you that idea?"

Valo chuckled. "Well, let's just say I know the guy."

"I think I know exactly what you mean by that."

"It's not exactly hard to see." Valo charged at Ilthazar, and they went back and forth for a while before crossing weapons again.

"It's ironic, isn't it?" Valo remarked. "Orders you gave to your troops caused a series of events that led to this moment, to your own son trying to kill you."

"Life can be that way."

"It certainly can, you son of a bitch."

--------------------------------------------------------

OOC: The secret's out. Ilthazar is Valo's father. Yes, this has been okayed by amgoddess.

[Redemption]

[COLOR=Purple]OOC: I like the twist Heero! It's really good.

Brielle's heart felt like it was torn in two. The first half was with Heero and Cyrus, the second Kai and Celebrynn. And Zeddrick. Tears rolled freely down her face. She made no effort to stop them. Scythe could feel her deep sadness.
" Brielle....you did the right thing...." the black dragon growled.
" I'm not so sure Scythe....I.....I hit the only one I've loved....and....and....." Brielle stuttered, feeling sadness take over her.
" You must think clearly Brielle if you are to fight against Ilthazar...."

Lightning crashes behind them. She knew it was Heero and Cyrus trying to get out of the cage she imprisoned them in. Guilt and sadness plagued her like a disease, eating her right to her heart.

As they approached the capital, Brielle and Scythe saw a golden dragon hovering in the sky. She immediately recognised it as the Dragon Queen, and its Rider - Kai. The expression on his face told Brielle that he had matured into manhood. Their eyes were cast at the ground. Brielle looked too. Down fighting on the ground was Valo and the king of Zerveria, Ilthazar himself. The fight was a game of skill. Neither was winning from what Brielle could see. Scythe flew over to the Dragon Queen's side. Brielle looked at her brother.
" Kai?" she asked tentatively.
" Brielle. I'm gald to see you back," he replied, his voice ringing with authority.
" How did this happen?" Brielle said, meaning the growth of the Dragon Queen. She expected it to be fast but not instanteous.
" It happened when I saw Ilthazar. My anger just took over me. I had never felt that much rage before. Isis responded to it so I can avenge our parents' death Brielle," Kai replied.
" You're waiting to fight Ilthazar?"
" Valo is no match for Ilthazar, even though he likes to think he's superior. Unfortunately, he doesn't realise that he is being toyed with. It's his pride and arrogance that is blinding him from seeing the truth."
" And you're not going to do anything about it?" Brielle scolded.
" If I didn, do you think Valo would listen?" Kai replied, looking his sister in the eyes. That proved his point.
" Well what are we going to do?" Brielle asked.
" Wait!"[/COLOR]

[GuyYouMetOnline]

Ilthazar spun and attacked, but Valo dodged expertly. Ilthazar came in fast and furious, but he didn't ever hit Valo. Valo didn't even block any of Ilthazar's strikes, and many of his dodges seemed impossible. After about ten seconds of this, Ilthazar managed to his Valo. Or not. The sword passed harmlessly through 'Valo'.

Before Ilthazar could realize that something was wrong, his face was in the dirt, and his swords were flung out of his hands. Valo had actually been behind Ilthazar. "Got you with that one, didn't I?" he said. "You were trying to hit an illusion. That's why 'I' didn't block. Your weapons would have passed right through the illusion. As to how I made it, well, you may not know this-I'd be surprised if such an idiot as yourself did-but our eyes pick up light reflected off of objects. It's not exactly easy, but I cal send certain light waves out from an area, creating the image of something that isn't there. That's how I staged that prison breakout-you know, the one where the guards didn't see anything until after every prisoner was gone. That was me.

"Oh, I know we said 'no powers'. Of course, you and I both know that you would eventually have broken that rule, Sir Mother-Fucker. I just beat you to it. One thing that we have in common is that neither of us is afraid to cheat." Valo channeled light energy into his poles, and readied a light energy blast aimed at Ilthazar's head. "And now, you die."

[Delta]

[COLOR=DarkGreen][FONT=Book Antiqua]
Nauross was commander to the group tasked to guard the castle; of course he was expected to stay behind while the others were sent to protect the capital. They were aloft and guarding the Western Walls from whither the Zerverian ruler and his escorts came. With the escorts now dead and Ilthazar in a one-on-one brawl with the Light Rider, the captain and his company now had nothing to do ...which suited Flamberge fine. She never had a taste for battle anyway.

[i]The Princess is come.
[Hey, but that makes?]
Too few Elemental Riders are afield.
[Must we, sir? The enemy has retreated!]
Flamberge![/i]

A tug in the reins and the red dragon flew off towards the royal company. Nauross tapped his breastplate and saluted to the King.
?Your leave to check on the frontline, sir.?
?Very well, captain. Marshal them into the capital.?
?Understood. Flam??

Just as Flamberge turned, they bumped into Caramel who was blocking their path. Her lissome Rider jumped on Flamberge and seized the reins from Nauross. Perhaps Vanilla expected him to jump onto Caramel; after she shook his hand patted his shoulder, the lady Rider threw the captain to the waiting silver dragon

?Keep up, love. You heard what the King said.?
[i] [No worries here, sir. You?ll get there sooner with Caramel.][/i]
?What--?
[i][Right. Hold on, Captain!][/i]

~o~o~o~o~o~

Rain poured as soon as they arrived. Caramel flew along with the dark clouds as they surveyed the battle plain far below. Already their forces were marching towards the capital, surprised but glad of their sudden victory. From the lines below merry noises could be heard; a group of Riders in grey cloaks passed the captain and greeted him despite the dreary weather. This continued until everyone was inside the capital, save for the sentinels posted along the walls.

[i]That?s the last of them.
[Captain?]
Have we forgotten anyone?
[Cyrus and Heero were with this team, weren?t they?]
Ah, yes. Now that you?ve mentioned it, I haven?t seen them since they left the castle.[/i]

Nauross summoned a herald to his side and bid him to look for the missing pair.

[/FONT][/COLOR]

[GuyYouMetOnline]

?You move, Ilthazar, and I kill you,? Valo said.

?You?re going to kill me anyways,? Ilthazar replied, ?so why does it matter??

?Because I want to know why you did it.?

?You mean, why did I get myself a son that I then abandoned? Simple. So that I?d have an heir that nobody knew about.?

Valo chuckled. ?I think your little plan backfired. Your heir is about to kill you.?

?I think not.?

?Just try and stop me.? Valo shot the blast at Ilthazar?s head. Ilthazar blocked the blast with some kind of dark energy. Valo wasn?t surprised, however. He knew Ilthazar would try something. He was currently vaulting himself over Ilthazar while firing light energy blasts downwards at Ilthazar. Ilthazar blocked every blast.

Valo kept firing as he landed, spun around, and swung his pole down at Ilthazar?s head. What he didn?t count on was Ilthazar firing his own energy blast through Valo?s blasts, and into Valo himself.

Valo was flung backwards by the blast, but he got back up quickly. Ilthazar was also on his feet. ?Surprised??

?You did catch me off-guard there,? Valo admitted. ?I didn?t think you?d be able to cancel my energy so effectivly.?

?I can do more than just that,? Ilthazar replied. ?Now that we?re no longer confining ourselves to weapons, you don?t stand a chance.?

?And just why is that??

?Because a Rider draws power from his dragon. your dragon is not yet old enough to have come into its full power. Due to the accelleration process, Plejalta has come into his full power.?

?By ?come into?, do you mean that a dragon gains power as it grows older, or that it gains access to that power? because I?m betting it?s the second option.?

?You?re a smart one,? Ilthazar said. ?You?re right. A dragon posesses great power at birth, but can?t access it. Access comes with age. that?s why dragons become more powerful as they grow older. they gain access to their dormant power. I?m curious as to how you figured that out.?

?Simple. I saw that new Dragon queen have a bit of a growth spurt in both size and power.? [i]And I might have accessed Angelus?s once,[/i] he thought. ?So I?m afraid you don?t have a power advantage here.?

?As we both know, power isn?t all that matters,? Ilthazar replied. ?You must know how to use that power. The new Dragon Queen and her rider don?t.? He pointed up. ?And as you can see, Plejalta is easily winning.?

Valo looked up to see Plejalta and Isis engaged in battle. Plejalta was indeed winning. as Valo watched, Kai was knocked off of Isis?s back. Fortunately, Angelus was nearby, and she was good at catching falling people. Kai landed on her back. Plejalta saw this and dove down at Angelus. Angelus knew she had no choice but to get rid of Kai. She flew low and dumped Kai near Valo. Isis intercepted Plejalta, who slammed the new Dragon Queen into the ground.

Valo moved to Kai, but so did Ilthazar. Valo and Kai bolted, or at least appeared to. Ilthazar fired an energy blast at them, and it passed harmlessly through what was an illusion. the two of them were actually running the other way. Ilthazar shot another blast. Valo shoved Kai to the groun. The blast passed over Kai, but hit Valo. Valo went flying backwards again. Ilthazarran to Kai, retrieving his swords on the way. He sheathed one, grabbed Kai, and held his other sword up to the young king?s neck.

----------------------------------------------------

OOC: Yes, amgoddess approved all of that.

[Heero Darkangel]

Heero felt betrayed...his heart sank deeper into his chest...

'Why?..Brielle......I love her...why?' he whispered

'I too don't fully understand...' sighed Cyrus

'You don't get it do you foolish boy!!,' growled the leader of the pack of deformed Dragons who spun around on his saddle

'What are you talking about?' questioned Heero

The man laughed, 'She deserted you..she left you there to die!...she left you as bait so that we would have a distraction!...but..we are going to take you to Ilthazar...so her distraction didn't work,'

'YOU LIE!!!!,' roared Heero as Cyrus growled deeply and thunder rolled across the sky

The man laughed mockingly and tauntingly

'SHUT UP!!!!,' yelled Heero

'I see i've touched a sensitive side,' the man laughed, 'Honestly boy!..why do you think she left you there caged....she doesn't love you!...and from what I can tell your a peasant brat...a nobody until you became a Rider of Celebrynn...it is us who you should thank for pulling you out of the gutter..because if it wasn't for the war you'd still be kissing dirt,'

'Shut your mouth!..how I live has nothing to do with it!,' snapped Heero lightning now burning in his eyes

'She don't love you because what Princess would love a peasant!,' laughed the man

Anger had now set fully in Heeros heart..enraged by eveything that was said..and eveything that was done but with arrows being aimed at Cyrus he couldn't risk doing anything that might cause those arrows to shoot down the only thing who has cared and looked after him for most of his life...Cyrus

'Brielle....why?' he whispered softly...'Please don't let his word have meaning...I love you....but I don't know what to believe....,'

Heero put his head down as the rain poured down heavily, His heart shattered into so many pieces of which only Cyrus could feel..., he could hear the fighting from the capital getting closer,

OOC: I hope I haven't ruined anything...pm me if I have ok

[GuyYouMetOnline]

It was a classic 'standoff' situation. Valo couldn't fire an energy blast because he'd have to shoot right through Kai, and Ilthazar would end up blocking it anyways. Ilthazar couldn't fire because he was holding Kai, and he couldn't kill Kai because if he did, his attention would be on the kill long enough for Valo to take him out. And if anyone else moved in, Ilthazar would kill Kai. He'd get himself killed by doing so, but he knew that nobody would risk getting the new King killed. He was almost right. One person was willing to do so. His name was Valo.

Valoknew that there would be concequences if he was forced to kill Kai, but he'd do it anyways if it meant that he'd be able to kill Ilthazar. However, he didn't yet know how he could actually succeed at killing Ilthazar. It was a bad situation, and things on;y got worse. That's because Heero and Cyrus, brought by their captors, arrived.

When they landed, one of the captors instructed Heero to dismount, which he did. The captors also dismounted their dragons, and the same captor who gave the dismount order quietly said something to Heero. Heero walked closer to Brielle, who was standing behind Valo. Ilthazar, still holding Kai, just watched.

Brielle and Heero both opened their mouths, but it was Valo who spoke first. He had seen the way Heero looked at Brielle. "Why did you come back without Heero?" he asked Brielle.

"He wasn't ready to fight," Brielle replied. "He would have gotten himself hurt worse than he already is, or maybe even killed. I just couldn't let that happen. So I trapped him and left him where he was."

"Which resulted in a fate worse than death. I know what Ilthazar's dungeons are like. Hero wold be better off if he was dead." Valo then turned to Heero. "Now, I know what Ilthazar's men are like. I don't know what they said to you-and I know they definatly said something. they wouldn't be able to resist-but I've got a damn good idea of what they said. They told you that Brielle doesn't love you. My guess is, they played the 'noble and peasant' angle."

Heero nodded. "And they told me I was being used as a distraction for them, and I should thank them and Ilthazar for starting this war and 'pulling me out of the gutter.'"

"Don't believe them," Valo said. "It's all bullshit. Ilthazar's men love messing with people's heads." [i]Time to move in,[/i] he thought. [/i]Anger seemed to make her srtonger when the old King and Queen died. It might help her access Scythe's dormant power.[i/]

Valo turned back to Brielle. "See what your trap did? Heero was almost convinced that you faked your love for him, plus he's going to wish he was dead once he gets to one of Ilthazar's dungeons. And it's your fault, too. Not only that, but you aren't even trying to help Kai, and if you'd been in the fight instead of just watching, he probably wouldn't be in the danger he;s currently in." And with that, Valo punched Brielle. Hard.

Scythe was ready to attack as Valo's punch connected. angelus, however, knew what was going on, and sent an explination to Scythe privatly. Brielle, meanwhile, looked ready to kill Valo. [Do not direct your anger at me,] Valo sent. [Use it to help you do what you can't do without it.] valo then took a step back, hoping that his plan would work, that Brielle's anger would allow her to access Scythe's dormant power.

-------------------------------------------

OOC: Your turn, amgoddess.

[Redemption]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle held her cheek with her hand in disbelief. Valo had just hit her. The initial shock dissapated. Her anger grew. She looked at Valo with pitch black eyes, just like she had the first battle the Riders ever fought. Dark spirits surrounded her.
" Valo, you just pushed it....." Brielle hissed. For once, Valo was taken aback by her ferciosity. He looked at Scythe who nodded. Valo edged on.
" You just used Heero for your own sick purposes, didn't you? How do you think he feels? Being used?"
" SHUT UP! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!" Brielle screamed at him in reply.
" You caged him like an animal. Left him for dead. You just love doing that...." Valo hissed.
" I WOULD NEVER! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" Brielle screamed, now holding her head. Heero looked at Brielle and then at Valo.

Suddenly a bright silver light came from Scythe's chest and blinded everyone, including Ilthazar and Kai. When the light faded, Kai was no longer under the threat of Ilthazar. He was by Brielle's side, standing like a king. Ilthazar straightened.
" So, she's awakened her dragon's power. Finally. At least one of you have done something right."
Brielle looked at Ilthazar with death-like eyes. Black spirits formed around Ilthazar. He looked at them in awe.
" Nice powers. Very good. But they are nothing compared to mine."

Ilthazar attacked Brielle head on. She moved gently out of the way, as if not fazed. She looked at the foll who tried to attack her.
" Hopeless...."[/COLOR]

[Heero Darkangel]

Heero was still shackled but also in shock by what was happening, he didn't know what to believe at this moment...

The men who had Heero shackled pulled the chains hard, Heero was lifted off the ground and he hit the dirt then was dragged back to where the men stood, they yanked him off the ground so that he sat on his knees before them

'she don't love you..she never did...she never will..she left you there to die..to wither away into nothing...your only a peasent....look at her...so beautiful....so lovely....how can she love you..' the men whispered in his ear

'SHUT UP!!!!,' roared Heero as he fell onto his hands and gripped the dirt

'She don't love you boy! wake up!!,' whispered the man, 'If she did do you honestly think that she would of left you there for us,'

'No.....your lying....your lying,' whispered Heero as tears of anger fell from his eyes and a deep hatered set upon his heart...but for who?.....he didn't understand

The man then pulled back hard on the chains lifting Heero back upon to his knees, the man put his arm around Heero's neck and gripped a handful of Heero's hair and pulled his head back so that she looked at Brielle

'Look at her..she betrayed you!,' exclaimed the man

'N....no,' gasped Heero

'Yes and you know it...because if you knew that she loved you...right now you wouldn't feel as though you were betrayed...betrayed by the one thing....the only thing that brought your heart to life..the only thing that made you see things that noone else did...the one who spoke of love..then made you feel as if you meant nothing,'

'STOP IT!!!!!!!,' screamed Heero as he clutched his head in agony, 'STOP IT!!!!!!,'

Cyrus let out a blood curtling cry and lightning struck down from the sky scaring the deformed dragon which Heeros chains were also bound to, the deformed Dragon shot off into the sky and Heero was torn from the ground, he gripped the collar as it dug in and cut him, blood dripped from his neck, Cyrus suddenly launched himself into the sky after Heero, the deformed Dragons who were bound to Cyrus were also lifted into the sky with a shreek cry,

Heero's head throbbed and his vision began to blur, his body was getting battered around like a piece of meat handing from a wild dogs jaws, voice's flowed in and out of his head making him cry him cry out in pain

'HEEROOOOO!!!!!!,' roared Cyrus as he went wild, lightning struck down everywhere hitting everything and anything, Cyrus's rage was beyond its peak as his eyes turned red, he was like a loose canon

[Redemption]

[COLOR=Purple]Brielle looked up at Heero being dragged away by some of the deformed dragons. Her blood boiled.
" No one takes him away from me," she growled protectively. Cyrus dragged four other deformed dragons into the sky to try and get Heero back. Brielle ran over to Scythe, jumped on and took off, heading towards Heero. Bolts of lightning crashed to the ground. Scythe and Brielle, both full of magical power, dodged the lightning with ease. Scythe soon approached Heero being dragged through the air. Heero's blood splattered across Brielle's face, who wiped it away. The chains that held Heero to the dragon, especially the neck collar, cut into his flesh. Brielle drew her sword. Cyrus was close behind Scythe. With no care for her life, Brielle jumped off Scythe's back and arched her sword to cut through the chains. It sliced through them as if they were flesh. Heero, with the excessive weight of the iron chains, soon began plummeting to the ground. Brielle caught him and headed towards the ground. A sudden wind blew up underneath them, slowing them down from the awesome speed they were plummeting at. Within seconds, Brielle's feet touched the ground. She clutched Heero close to her in her arms.

Cyrus landed heavily on the ground, so did Scythe. Ilthazar and Kai, along with the other men, watched this feat of daredevil proportions Brielle lay Heero gently down on the ground. She couldn't tell if he was conscious or not. But all she cared was that he was safe and next to her. With her bare hands, she ripped off the shackles and neck collar and threw them away. Raw red marks could be seen where the shackles had once been. A tear dropped onto Heero's chest from Brielle's eye.
" I'm so sorry Heero for making you like this. I will kill Ilthazar if its the last thing I do."

She stood up, gripping her sword tightly, look at Ilthazar with those pitch black eyes. Ilthazar stepped back one pace.
" You are dead!" Brielle yelled and attacked Ilthazar.

About 20 minutes later, Ilthazar definitely had the upper hand. Brielle was tired from doing her daredevil trick. Within another few seconds, Brielle was on the ground, underneath Ilthazar's sword. As well, Scythe was being attacked by Plejalta. Brielle panted and looked at him.
" You win....." she said, defeated.

OOC: Takuya, your turn.[/COLOR]
