The Refuge

[Awesomoman]

"Thats the spirit, I'm Zarin, you might have heard me by my other name. Killer Comedian, its pretty easy to hear of me once or twice." One thing Zarin loved to do was boast about his reputation. Zarin then took a quick look, Ivy had not noticed them. "Come on, before the scales on mom's back start to rise, Oh and I only call her mom cuz thats how she acts, just like someones mom."

[Midnightmoon]

"Actually I've never heard of you. But anyway we should get going. She's also really crabby." Then Starlight sheepishly added,"that also may be because I almost hit her. Lets go." She skipped from foot to foot full of energy. "Come on before you get caught and get into trouble."

There was something rather... strange about their surroundings. Towards the opposite end of the springs, there seemed to be a bed made out of the ground. Or rather, two. But one seemed much smaller than the other, and less noticeable. And something even less noticeable, there was an unearthly colour in the smaller "bed".

[Zetherus]

Scourge was getting closer to the village he was running like a psycho making all these weird noises and couldn't run striate and dragging his mace across the ground while he was laughing terribly and yelled out" wow its been a long time since i skinned a mortal and ate there insides, Im going to enjoy this like when i first came here and smashed the hell out of that elf that thought that it could destroy me".

[Inti]

The unearthly colour seemed to be shifting... which then lifted up and showed a boy, seeming rather energetic yet still. It was looking at the demon, then the group, then dropped.

[Zetherus]

Scourge smelt the flesh of a young child then stopped to walk toward it too see if it will fear him or not. Scourge lifted his mace over his right shoulder so if anyone tried to ambush him he would crush them with his mace even theo his Armour protected him.

[Inti]

The child saw the big demon come towards him. It moved downwards, obviously fearing of what the demon would do to him.

[Zetherus]

Scourge grabbed the child by his legs with his left hand and lifted him into the air up side down to look at the kid with his fearful hollow eyes looking at the childes horrified face.

Meressa saw Eloyn go with the sun dragon. at least she was safe. Now Meressa turned to the demon who was grinning evilly. "Demon, please tell me your name. I know you want to destroy these humans, and so do I for what they were going to do to Eloyn. But, we should get some other dragons together first. Maybe my brother will help, and possibly Ivy too." Meressa turned and followed the sun dragon and Eloyn, to make sure that the girl was alright.

[Awesomoman]

Zarin liked this new dragon. "You are a very energetic one....." Zarin had an idea. "Tell me, whats the highest you've ever flown?" Zarin was starting to miss soaring in the sky and felt like going up today.

[Midnightmoon]

"Oh this is so is going to be so much fun." Starlight thought enthusiasticly before launching herself into the air. Instead of opening her wings as soon as lift off she aloud her momentum to bring her as high as possible. As she rose higher she swirled around and around cutting through the air. As her momentum started to give out she spread her wing wide and flapped hard to come head to head with her new friend Zarin. As they rose her aerodynamic body started to give her some advantage in speed and she slowly began to pull ahead of him. She was a full body length ahead so she breathed out a breath of frosty crystal and swirled around in cirlces. They were so high up now that the group was little more then a small pebble.

[Zetherus]

Scourge was holding the child upside down then turned his head to the water dragon and said" i don't need help on killing these weaklings because iv been killing them since i first came to this planet and my name is Scourge the one that will destroy the human race". the child that Scourge had by the legs started crying when he heard the demon say that evil thing.

Sol'Lux couldn't watch. "Stay here!" she said to the girl and took off. She used all of her energy and reached incredibble speed, so she looked more like a ray of light instead of flying dragon. She rammed Scourges hand and he, surprised, relased the boy. Sol'Lux turned at maximum speed, so Scourge wouldn't see her, grabbed the boy, and fly away, dodging Scourges attacks. She knew that she might just start a war between herself and Scourge, but she felt it was the right thing to do. when she passed human village, she laughed: "Heheheh, demons brain is slower than i thought. The humans already noticed him." She picked up the girl in the forest and flew away. "I won't risk bringing you to the group, kids, i don't know how they would react, not to mention scourge will be there. I'll bring you something to eat, just stay whrer you are and make a hideout or something against rain and cold." As she said, she did. Hunting a deer was harder than it looked like. but finally, it was lying in front of children. Sol'Lux helped them with building the hideout by cutting trees and lifting roof. then she returned to the group. She was exhausted, wounded on neck and the sun already set. She wanted to find a place where to sleep, but instead she just fell on the ground. "Help..." She said quietly, but doubted anyone can her her.

[Inti]

The boy was ready to freak out. Not about being taken off to a group with other kids, but rather of the dragon's wound. He saw it say something, but didn't hear what it said.

Back at the springs, a silver flash appeared next to Scrouge but no attacks were dealt. It went flying towards where a light dragon went with the boy. It wouldn't let it keep him, for some reason.

[Nohiki]

Sol'Lux was dreaming. She saw herself where she was, like her spirit left her body. She was bleeding from the wound, in total darkness, alone. Is this her end? Kids are far away hidden in the forest from Scourge and other dragons, and others in the group probably thought she just fell asleep and they left her at it. "Is this my end?" she asked herself. THen the dream changed.
She was surrounded by white something. There was no ground under her legs but she wasn't falling. Somebody hailed her. She turned around. The place was empty. "Show yourself!" she shouted, and started to fear what is happening. Only thing she heard was echo of her voice. Then she saw him. It was a big, feathered gold dragon. He speaked: "I am Tarasana, one of the ancient elemental dragons, and creator of the extinct light dragons." "I... i saw how they were destroyed, it was long looong ago... But... You wasn't there. Where are you, and where are we now?" Sol'Lux hat too many questions she wanted to answer. Tarasana continued: "Long ago, we, elemental dragons, created dragons like you know them now. there were seven of us, Me, representing light, Atmosen, representing air, Frostelus, representing ice, Nautilus, representing water, Terrases, representing earth, Vulcanus, representing fire, Neurtin, representing energy, and... Desperanus, representing darkness" He said last name with obvious disregarding.
"He, and his dark dragons, started the first war, before you came here, and the light clan was eliminated in first surprise attack, because they were the only one, who could stop dark dragons. We knew Desperanus must be stopped, and we gaethered together and attacked him, we torn his wings appart, but there it ended. First was Neurtin, who was smashed far away to Human continent, brainwashed and tamed by their mage. Then we fled, but eventualy, it came to final battle. We sacrificed all our power, put Desperanus into deep sleep and sealed him deep under the surface and created you, because we knew Desperanus wont sleep forever." Sol'Lux was shocked. now she knew who gave her life. She was shocked, amazed, scared and angry at one time. "He remained here, without him, the black dragons were defeated and everyone lived in piece once again.
But now, the dark dragons striked again. they were defeated, but their resistance had aweakened Desperanus, and this world don't have a clue what danger is lying down underground, because all mentions are in Dark temple, main fortress of dark dragons, as well as our hearts, stone symbols of Elemental dragons, wich can be used to ressurect us."
Sol'Lux answered: "What shall i do then! You created me to stop Desperanus, right?" "That is correct. But you must find your own way, or you won't be prepared when the final showdown will come. Farewell, and remember, we are watching. Good luck!"
Tarasana's image has disappeared. Sol'Lux was watching herself on the ground again. She must find help, but how. Maybe she can give dreams. But to who? Who could heal her? "Ivy, Ivy can help me!" she remembered and her dream-herself flown to sleeping Ivy. She touched Ivy's forehead with her nose. "Hepl me, please!" she thought, and then the dream disappeared as she lost consciousness.
