Pax RP

Evil Swix just continued laughing, arms held up to the clouds that were now spiralling around the everwidening beam of mocking light, the tendrils on her back even mimicking her arms. She heard the dracon talking to the Pwees and CP of course. Oh, she was arrogant, mean, spiteful and petty-but she wasn't stupid. Plus, not hearing rock cracking was kind of hard to do. So, the dark woman spun round-the shadowy tendrils flailing around her body chaotically with the momentum- just in time to see the blow coming, but not enough to do anything about it. It hit, and she went flying into the wall closest to her, her head smacked against the cold stone quite violently and she slumped down to the floor, out cold. Her shadowy limbs receded as did the darkness that had been covering her body and obscuring her features. This revealed a headwound that began bleeding quite profusely.

But the mocking light had reached the edges of the straight line by then, the storm becoming darker, with lightning playing across the angry cloud layer in a brilliant show. Whatever was on the other side stared at them for long seconds, before a silken, sultry, clearly female voice spoke as though it emanated from everywhere beyond the mocking light "Ah, I see it worked this time" then a pause " should've used this light before. Now for something more natural..."
The mocking light changed drastically to a realm that looked quite devoid of it. And yet, it looked so very alive. A living, breathing, watching realm of night. "Only one thing left to do"

Emerald gulped then was about to run, when suddenly stopped to look back and squeaked "WOH!" and stumbled over then sighed "I Should have stayed in the burrow..."

She then shouted scardly "What or Who are you!?, and can someone Please explain what in the world is going on!?, Because I am REALY freaking out right now!"

Jade gulped and squeaked "Is it me, or are those clouds getting darker... and whatever is going on, My instincts don't like it... Emerald... please be ok..."

"Just. One. Little. Drop."

Coolpikaaa watched in horror as the symbols flooded with crimson. He had unknowingly played into her hands perfectly. The extent of what he had done...

Thunder cracked, it's majestic power replaced with something else. A bark of fear from a world that already knew?

Light came down from the heavens, and CP realized he was shaking. He was terrified, not only at the ungodly abominations of nature that now surrounded them, but also at the knowing that he had done this. He had given a key.

...and now you're all too late.

"I- I can't." Coolpikaaa mumbled, backing away from the light to press his body against the rock. Someone was trying to talk to him. Trying to get an answer to a question. But all the electric mouse could hear, could think of, was the laughter. The horrible laughter. The knowing. His instincts screaming to flee.

"I- I-"

The Guardian was moving now, nimbly grabbing hold of Swix's head and dashing it against the rock. But it was too late. The sky opened up, a rift of light and storm. Nothing done to the woman could stop the real threat.

And it spoke, a sinful voice from the heavens, calling upon it's success. Coolpikaaa had heard it before. And that was what scared him the most.

"We need to move! We have to leave NOW!" electric mouse yelled, dashing along the outcropping. He knew if they stayed here, bad, bad things would happen, and it gave him voice. "Grab the little ones! We have to get out!"

Guardian moved instantly, urged onwards by Coolpikaaa's voice. He scooped Emerald and Jade into his arms, and took off at a sprint. In his other arm, he grabbed the electric mouse. "We need to get to Psiot land!" He declared.

Still he sprinted, stretching his endurance as far as it would go. He seemed like a freight train, stomping through trees, over boulders, and not stopping for anything. "Do you know who or what this is?"

Emerald squeaked as she was scooped up, She then shouted to Jade "JADE!" to get her out of the Burrow.

Jade ran out just to be scooped up aswell "EMERALD HELP!" she screamed scardly

Emerald Gulped then said to Jade "It's ok! Jade calm down!" in attemmpt to calm her down.

Jade looked scardly at Emerald and whimperd "SISTER YOUR OK!" and cuddeld Emerald sadly

Emerald smiled then said proudly "Yeah i'm Fine, anyways it takes ALOT to hurt a Pwee, and I wasn't even scard" She then added in a mumble "Well, The not being scard part was a lie... I was terrified..."

Jade whimperd scardly "What is the Psiot land?", Emerald tilted her head and shrugged

"Psiot land," Guardian said, taking a breath. "Is where the Psiot live. A great many spirits, each with a small amount of power. There are so many of them, though, that when they work together, they have much power."

He looked back, towards the 'realm of night'. Judging by CP's reaction, if you could still see it, you were too close.

Guardian gave another boost of speed, and blasted through a sapling. But then again, judging from CP's reaction, if it existed, it was too close.

The being on the other side with the silken, sultry voice heard the Pwees question through the doorway, and did not answer. No, instead, it started laughing too. A laughter that followed them all in their mad dash to get away from it and it's realm.
Pity they wouldn't have been able to see her coming through, the world she had come from twisting to her will. But then, had they stayed they may have fallen prey to the taint that was twisting nature into abominations-those that were too close anyway. Then again, maybe it wouldn't have, as it certainly wasn't having any effect on the woman that had started it all. "Awww, now look what those 'heroes' did to you" the sinful voice commented "you're going to be furious when you wake up, and you did this all for li'l ol' me too. Well, almost all... Now what can I do for you?"
The clearly carrying voice paused here, giving the impression that the creature was thinking, before a very loud 'snap' echoed across the widening gap followed by a single, triumphal sentence "I know exactly what to do"
The triumphal sentence was followed by a screech of something part reptilian, part bird, and large leathery wings opened wide. With one downthrust the creature took to the skies, and was soon bearing down upon the party-now a shadow of the air.

Emerald gulped then mumbled "I sure hope the psiots will be able to help us..." She then heard the screech then Squeaked "That dosn't sound good... Nothing at all seems good at the moment"

Jade poked Emerald and said nerviusley "Emerald, look up!"

Emerald tilted her head then looked up and saw the Shadow and mumbled "oh..." then shouted "FASTER!"

Jade gulped then squeaked "This is Madness!"

Emerald sighed then said "Jade, you took the words right out of my mouth"

"Yeah..." Coolpikaaa said as the Guardian carried him away from the storm. After a few of those thrashing steps, the electric mouse squirmed out of Draconian's grasp, climbed up to his shoulder, and continued. "I've met her once before."

"You must understand one thing, Guardian. This entity is evil. And no, I don't mean that as in a moral alignment." Cp breathed, hanging on for several more of those thrashing steps. "What we are facing here is the sin of the universe. She is the darkness within everyone's minds. She is evil. She is constant. I'm not even sure she is able to be stopped..."

".... And I helped release her on the world."

Coolpikaaa sat in silence, glancing at the Pwee and Draconian.

"Hey... Wait." Cp said, staring at an oddly shaped shadow that now, and rather alarmingly quickly, approached. "What is that thing?

Emerald was curius about what they was saying then said "Well, It isn't your fault Pikachu, you didn't know" then said nerviusley "Through... we are all doomed now from the sound of it..."

Jade watched the Shadow then mumbled scardly "I wonder if it is a form of Dragon spicies?, It looks dragonish"

Emerald sighed to Jade "maybie, but seriusley I Don't! Want to find out what that weird shadow is..."

Jade gulped then said to Emerald "Me nether, It looks Scary enugh as a Shadow!"

"Whatever it is," Guardian said, starting to pant. "It's fast, and it's dangerous." He shifted all of his 'passengers' to one arm. "I'm wearing down, though." He said; Apparently, his endurance wasn't endless. "I'll have to stop, and you keep on ahead. I'll distract that . . shadow wyvern. Keep going this way. I'll turn back. If blood made the key in the first place to unlock whatever that was, then I'll use my blood to make a key to lock it away." He said. "I don't know much, but I know that the element of sacrifice carries meaning." He stopped for a moment, and set his passengers down. "Go." He said, lifting up a large boulder. With a roar, he threw it towards the shadow, and dropped into a charge, tensing for a jump that would take him high enough into the air to tackle the beast.

The dark creature above and behind them glided on smooth wings under the clouds of the storm. It's draconic wings stretched wide. The neck was long and attached to a snake like head, whilst the tail behind it was longer and almost whip like. The legs would remain hidden until it landed, but the closer it got, the more obvious it would be. This was no dragon-it was indeed a Wyvern, an ancient beast whose flight was generally heralded as an omen of widespread destruction and war.
But the eyes on that head were pools of pure red, entirely devoid of pupils... And these unnatural eyes looked down on the group with an odd mixture of emotions showing through.
The creature swerved as it saw the boulder coming, but it still hit the entity in the middle of it's right wing-sending another screech resounding across the landscape, though this one was one of rage rather than pain, before something very strange happened.
Rather than hearing a satisfying crack of bones breaking, or seeing the being fall to the ground thanks to the projectile, it seemed to be... melting. Where once there was a physical beast, there was now a large droplet of darkness that fell to the ground-and it laughed. "How adorable" the sinful voice commented as the liquid hit the floor "it's been a while since I've met anyone foolish enough to fight me"

Guardian, mid-run, changed his plan of tackling the beast. He grabbed up another rock, and pelted it at the liquid darkness that was coalescing on the ground. He sat there for a moment, breathing heavily, And started trudging back to where this abomination was released upon the world. He was too tired to run, unless his or someone else's life depended on it. Every so often, he checked on the liquid darkness, for two things; That it hasn't gotten close, and that it hasn't stopped following him. He needed to make sure that Evil Swix hadn't died; He didn't mean to make her hit -that- hard.

The Draconian slowed, lowering his charges so they could dismount. He was tired, Coolpikaaa could see the clutches on him. He would go no further, the Guardian was to stay.

To sacrifice himself...

Coolpikaaa wanted to argue, to say that there was nothing they could too now that she had come. A sacrifice wasn't needed. But as the Guardian told them to run, and turned to throw the first rock, Coolpikaaa felt some admiration for the warrior. He was staying behind so they could escape.

"Thank you Guardian. Good luck...." he said, watching as the rock stuck the dark wyvern. "Come on little Pwee, we have to go..."

But Coolpikaaa lingered, long enough for the darkness to liquify and land.... Laughing.

The boulder hit the entity again-the rock landed right in the middle of the oily mess on the ground, causing barely a splash. But the liquid reacted differently to it this time-by oozing up the sides of the boulder. It paused here, apparently thinking about something now that it's prey had split into two groups-before it absently yet quite powerfully tossed the rock at Coolpikaaa and the two Pwee. "I'll be back to say hello to you three properly shortly" the silken, sultry voice carried over the sound of the boulder, far more cheerfully than was appropriate

Then the liquid began to follow the dracon, slowly cruising along the ground whilst simultaneously gathering in the centre-she was beginning to take another form. "There's really no point in being so violent you know"
