In the Wild

[Zetherus]

Thoron looked back at Ivy and said "ya i know I'm not invincible but I'm just trying to make sure that every dragon makes it out of here alive and yes Scourge did scout ahead to see what was in front of us" but in all a sudden Scourge ran up from behind them carrying a large crystal and said "everybody STOP you left a water dragon behind that was fighting three dark dragons i told her to follow but she didn't so i encased her human friend that was dieing in this crystal and ran back here leaving a trail so she could follow.. and by the way there is a large open area up ahead so be careful thats when ambushes start iv just killed a bird like human giant that attacked me in that area so watch it there might be more" Scourge then started to speak these odd words that summoned these five demon slaves that looked horrible with chunks of flesh missing from there body's. Scourge then handed them the crystal and ran back to the water dragon hoping that she was still alive.

"That's just great. Hey Zarin, could you go help the water dragon and Scourge, and hurry back with them? I thought you got everyone. We're going to have to go around this possible ambush. We'll head north and then turn back east in the morning. Well Thoron, how long can you keep those wings up? Cause we're going to have to spend the night here. I can bring up a wall of rock to block the openings you can't reach but that's all." Ivys thoughts were racing. So much was happening that it was hard to keep up. At least we won't have to worry about mush till the morning. Ivy stoped the group and turned around. "I'm going to set up a few look outs to keep watch while the rest sleep. so everyone can get some sleep the look outs are going to be in shifts. Me, Zarin and Thoron will be on first look out as well as a few other volunteers. Any objections or questions?"

[Zetherus]

Thoron then said" that sounds good this place is safe to rest in and i have a perfect reason not to go around this large area what if we stumble into the Garudas army that is much bigger then Scourge described he only killed one you know and if theres more of them i can handle a small group by myself these creatures are very easy to kill to me iv fought with them before and it was when i was four years old and alone after my parents died but Ivy you can do whatever you want to do and ill follow you alright" Thoron looked at her with concern about this decision.

[Midnightmoon]

"Oh I'm not that concerned about you getting hurt. You can handle problems on your own with not much worry. It's the group I'm worried about. With you protecting the group like that it would be hard to attack without hurting anyone. And if an enemy got threw it could be devastating with all the young and injured. Besides, the group has been going no stop for quite a while and we have all encountered countless enemy's. The sensable thing to do now is to stop and rest for the night." With that said she proceded to raise a wall of rock in the places where Thorons wings did not cover. "it's time to start our guard duty till our shift ends. Keap and eye out for Zarin as well, he could come back with that water dragon soon."

Meressa watched as the dark dragons fell, either dead or soon to be dead. She inhaled, and felt lightheaded-probably from lack of water. She saw another dragon encase Eloyn and take her off. "No, please!" she cried out. "Leave her here. I need Blaze to help her!" She saw the other dragons moving around, were they going to leave her? And Ezalba...where was she? Either from confusion, or a severe lack of water, Meressa passed out, falling down in a cloud of dust.

[Awesomoman]

"OH NO YOU DON'T!" As soon as Meressa hit the ground, Zarin picked her up again. "Come on ill get you out of here. I think i passed a stream earlier, lets see if that helps." Zarin then carried Meressa for some distance, finally the stream came into view. "Hold on, this wont take much longer." Right as he said that, more dark dragons came out. "OH YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!"

[Zetherus]

Scourge pulled up his mace and walked in front of Zarin and said in a dark voice" get the water dragon out of here if these dragons dare follow you i will show them the true meaning of Oblivion" Scourge turned to look at the dark dragons and stood there with a smile waiting for them to attack. Scourge's body began to pulse with hellish power that made his entire body engulf in a flame. he then started to laugh and said" if you dark-lings think you can take me on because of my size.. you have another coming.. so do you have any prayers to pray to your dark god before you die" Scourge looked at them with a merciless look and his mouth was open breathing out black smoke showing all of his needle like teeth.

Darkring re-awoke. He was still nauseated, but felt the pressence of other dragons. Not the dragons he knew, but different dragons.

"What is going on?" He mummered.

"You were found floating in a river, we have saved you." Said one of the dragons.

"Thanks" replied Darkring. "How shall i repay you?"

"You already have." Another dragon whispered in his ear. Suddenly pain shot through Darkrring! What was happening to him?!

"You are now an untouchable!" Roared one of the dragons. This is the price you must pay for your fathers sins!

"But my father and mother are dead!" Screamed Darkring in pain.

"Oh, are you sure, because of what we know, your father seems to be killing many dragons around the world, since the time you were born. Your mother saught to protect you, but one of his kin killed her 1st while you were hiding under her."

"But, Chaos's father killed my mother!" said Darkring. Then he thought, he had never really met his father. He never knew why his mother died or why he had suddenly realized that Chaos's father had killed his mother. What was going on here?!

"Since you are an untouchable, you are now to become Chaos's slave. And do as he wishes, if you dont', you will DIE!" Fire came out of the dragon's noes. "As proof that you are an untouchable, you will have black and red markings all over your body. Chaos will not know that you are an untouchable until you tell him. But either way, if you don't serve him, you will die." And with that, the dragon's dissapeared. Darkring awoke to see all of the other dragons gone.

"Where are you guys!" He called. Darkring sat, waiting for a response.

[Midnightmoon]

"Hey Thoron, you know that dark dragon you helped save? I think he's coming to." Ivy looked at the dark dragon and right before her eyes the red markings started to appear all over him. "Oh my gosh...." Ivy quickly and carefully dragged the dragon to the edge of the dome and made a wall between them and the group. The group would panic if they saw a dragon resembling Chaos within their midst. Only Thoron and Ivy could see what was happening to the dragon before them. when the markings had become blood red he began to wake up from whatever unconscious state he had bean in. Ivy could only watch in wonder and horror.

[fireglade]

"Oh, hello Ivy, I was wondering where everyone went.....by the way, where is everyone else?" Darkring stood up. Ivy was still gaping at him. What was wrong? Then, Darkring loooked at himself, the marks were flaring up!!! He looke almost the same as Chaos!! What was going on here?! "Uh, Ivy, what is going on?!" Darkring panicked. Calm down, he thought, this is nothing, you must find Chaos!! "Where is Chaos?" Darkring asked Ivy. "I must see him immediatly!"

[Midnightmoon]

"Well he was going to fight his dad so we had to relocate the group. it would have bean too dangerous if they stated fighting while everyone was still there. What's your name?" Ivy asked. This dragon may had known her name somehow, but she didn't know his.

[fireglade]

"Darkring." Darkring replied." I know your name because my ancestors tell me things that i need to know." He smiled.

[Zetherus]

Thoron's blood vein's under his inner wings began to glow red for light in the dome so it wouldn't be so dark then he looked at Ivy and Darkring seeing Ivy put up a wall around Darkring. Darkring had these red symbols on his back and wings Thoron then said" whats wrong with that dragon why does he have the symbols darkness on him" Thoron knew these symbols very well because he had them before but like other dragons he could control it. Thoron said to the dark dragon" i was once effected with the same thing and i knew how to fight it so if i can fight it.. so can you" Thoron was worried about the dragon that he just saved not a while back that might turn on him because of those symbols and the ones talking to him.

[fireglade]

Darkring was worried. He had to find Chaos soon!! So he could warn Chaos. But then he heard his ancestors, "Go to Thoron! Go to Thoron!" They cried.

"I must see Thoron right now." Darkring insisted. So Ivy let down the wall. Darkring walked up to Thoron. "My ancestors have told me to speak to you. What do you have to tell me?" He inquired.

[Zetherus]

Thoron turned his head to darkring and said" those markings on your body are the source in which the dark dragon lord can control you but its not your fault nether is Chaos i can tell you how to get rid of those markings all you do is remember all those who ever was your friend or family that you lost or those that saved you... and relax while your doing this its more painless to remember those that you lost... trust me" Thoron then looked back in front of him to see how many dragons there were he then focused more power into his wings to make the blood in them to glow brighter.
