I turned from Zero and looked back out over the purple sea before I spoke. I wonder what memories I had of this world that were sealed away?
The only way that I would find out was by getting my memories back, and staying here was not helping that. There was nothing left to talk about, and I had spent enough time In this place.
"You have two choices right now, so fuck off, or I will squish you like a bug, Toothy. Nothing will change with me, no matter how many times you try because you refuse to bend. You expect everyone else too," I said and turned back around to the frosted vines, but Zero was already gone.
"Where did your statue go… woah!" Fireden started to say but then exclaimed, and I turned back to where I left him.
"Yeah, Zero was here, but he is gone now. Show me what you figured out," I said, and the world shifted back to the center of the maze.
This was all in my head, just like I am now, and that is why everything is so strange an
I went to open my mouth as my eyes connected with her, but then Nushi and Hydie shifted forward in a burst of light. Her lips connected with mine, and Hydie separated from Nushi at the same time.I turned and kissed Hydie, and then she merged back with Nushi. I could see Mex still coming, but now I could also see Beeno on his back.Wataluga unfused from Mex, and gilded ahead of them, causing Mex to slow down some, but Fireden was already heading over to switch. I really wished that I had all four of my partners right now, but the water was the best thing against fire."We really need to find you some clothes that can handle the stress that you put them under! Not that I don't like seeing you like this, but I am sure others wouldn't mind seeing you in some pants!" Nushi laughed, and the confidence she emitted was something new but also very refreshing."Yeah, but we will worry about that when we get back home. For now, we have three furious dragons to deal
Both dragons were coming directly for me and ripped myself from their path using the water I had left on the swords. My hand connected with the sword, and then I moved past, ripping the sword out of the ground.The other two were rounding on me and ignoring the others, but I was heading straight to the other one. It was less than thirty feet from me, and it looked injured.Whatever kind of teleportation magic it used, it was not meant to be used like that, and the creature had broken its wing and front leg. The wing was not a problem; the broken leg paired with gravity kept the dragon down.[Throw the blade, I am switching to aspect!]I didn't think, I just threw the blade, and my body splashed to the ground, and the fire burned over the top of me. The moment it was done, I targeted the farthest dragon that had turned back on the others, locking on to the water on the back of its head.The dragon was already breathing fire at the girls, but Mex got
"FLAME ON!" I roared and took off into the air like a rocket, burning the fire faster than I could take it in.I put everything I had into pumping out as much heat as I could so that I could reach top speed. It was a bad idea, but I needed to make sure that the Carnica actually zeroed in on the Fire-Dread Dragon.[You don't want to take in too much of Emfirza's energy, so don't drain yourself too much. If you do too much, you will become poisoned, and the effect will be diminished. The kind of energy used is precisely the opposite of the type that we use, so it will cancel out yours, and vice versa.]I slowed down and then sent a thought.'Can Wataluga hit me like you did? I can't fight that thing with fire!'[What?! What is he talking about?! You didn't force the Pact, did you!?][I don't suggest it; your mind won't be able to handle it! We shouldn't have done it the first time.]It was clear to me that the reflections above me were
There was something about the two powers rolling around inside of me that didn't feel complete. I was also acutely aware of a lack of pain and forgot about the numbing sensation in my mind entirely.Additionally, there was something about this feeling that felt right.Fire, water, as one, one more time.[Don't do it!]I ignored Wataluga as I gathered the swirling Fire and Water, mentally gathering them into balls of frenetic energy. Both elementals screamed at me, but something about this felt right.[You know, he is right, and I don't even know if you can do something like that! I think you should…]It was too late for Fireden's words, and I crushed both forces together into my body. They didn't want to go, but I was tired of things not working, and this thing was going to work!Then the lights went out, and everything disappeared from me, leaving me without even a body. Darkness covered me, but two things pulsed behind it.
I turned north and started to shoot in that direction as the dragon chased me. The speed it could move was absolutely amazing, and its aura cooked anything that got anywhere close to it.On top of the oven aura, it had some type of reactive skin that created a ridiculously strong explosion. It was activated when something like the burning body of a Carnica would impact it.The body would be blown to bits, but there would be no marks on the dark red dragon after. That alone made the creature nearly impossible to fight, but that wasn't even mentioning the deadliest part of the massive creature.The ability to spit out ten-foot fireballs that could be detonated at will had already almost knocked me out of the air. I had tried to just barely avoid it, but the ball of fire ruptured beside me, sending me spinning through the air.Luckily, the fireballs also exploded on contact, so I had been hiding in the creatures. Still, the shockwaves from the blast were eno
I remember being a kid at the lake, and a friend's parents had bought a strange giant air bag. One person laid on the front of it, depressing the massive bag, and then another person climbed up a tall ladder.That person jumped off, and landed on the back part that was filled with air. The results were you being catapulted into the air about twenty feet, and then back down to slap the water.This was about four times as hard, and there was no upward arc to slow me down. I speared into the lava, and my Fire Gog Totem and Fire Force Pact took over.I had to keep my eyes closed, the lava was far too bright, and I didn’t need to see to eat. I opened my mouth and the fiery thick milkshake textured lava poured in.[Good, consume as much as you can while they are busy. It is filling you with energy, but if they kill the dragon, you should be teleported from here before the Tri-Gods can get you.]‘Should be, isn't that inspiring.’
[Zacks View]The wave of lava from the Elemental splashing into the fire lake hit me, and I was taken under with it. This really wasn't much of a problem, and I plunged deep, using my arms to pull myself to the bottom.[Blaza is trying to get to you, but you need to seal yourself from him and then try to absorb what you can! fifteen seconds till eternal damnation is released, and the top ten feet for a mile around is vaporized!]I didn't need Fireden's voice to remind me about the burgeoning atomic bomb worth of energy. I kept Keri's Totem up but changed to my Water Force Pact and started to churn the fiery sludge.The massive surge was building within the Dread Dragon as I whipped the lava around me faster. I could tell that it was about to reach the crescendo of overcharged unbridled power, so I needed to be faster.I closed my eyes, entirely slipping into my Water Aspect, forcing my body to expand. Then I started to swirl my body around, creatin
[Ooo, that is not going to feel good in the morning!]'Great to hear you again too, Hero.'[Yes, well, you look like you have been run over many times, but what is with this intense aura you have? Your energy is almost completely depleted, but you still have more than what your limit was when you left!]In the background, there was silence, but I could feel the Demons all around us… wait, why did I feel that?"Ugh, yeah, had my mind blown apart a couple times, but you saw me after that, right? Also, since when did a human join us?" I asked out loud, and the bodies that were crushing me into the steps started to move."What did you just say?" Mex asked as everyone got off me.I ignored him, my eyes were still closed, and I rolled over. I reached my hand out to push myself up, but the hand slipped, and then I tumbled the rest of the way down the stairs.[You should try opening your eyes, I hear they help when looking for places t
