Lee was sprinting at full speed straight out of the cave. "That dragon... Even Soki shouldn't be able to handle that all by himself," he thought as he ran.Leaving the entrance he used sand and carried himself straight to the top of the depression. He looked down at the cave.Cracks has formed all-over the ceiling for it. He sat there patiently covered by a few leaves and shrubs."I'll wait here till the dragon kills them, and then..." He pulled out a small amulet from his pocket, "... I'll use this to control the beast crystal we put inside of it." It would be a shame that his rival would most likely die—and with such great potential too. But, it wasn't something he hadn't gotten used to.Suddenly he felt another huge tremor ring through the entire cave—reaching him all the way at the top."That must be Soki... He can't beat that thing," he thought to himself. Not too long after the ceiling began collapsing on itself.A smile sat on Lee's face. He could tell that the fight was over,
"Damn it!!!" Soki yelled as he quickly rushed to the floor, taking four rocks and tossing each one into four distinct alchemy return circles."AHHHHH!!!!" shouted Ruby at the top of her lungs, "Where'd he go!!!" Asked Damian as he looked around him."He could still be in the area!" Said Christopher. "No!" Yelled Soki, "he ran away to avoid battle. He knew that if he tried to attack any of you I'd kill him," said Soki as sweat ran down his face.He stood up from the floor. "I'm sorry Ruby," he said as he turned to her. "I should've attacked him the instant he showed up," he added.He placed a hand on his face, "I wanted to gather some info on him first. I'm terribly sorry for causing you pain while I could bring you closure Ruby," said Soki.Ruby stomped her foot on the ground as hard as she could, "I'll kill him myself Soki! You didn't cause anything!!" She said.Damian and Christopher lowered their guards a little, "so where is he now?" Asked Christopher. "I don't know, but it's clea
A spatial rift opened, and out fell Light. Beaten and bruised, yet healing himself quicker than anyone could think.His body landed on the floor, still half-yelling about the ORA. But that quickly stopped when he realised he was no longer where he thought he was."Where am I?" He thought, as his body slammed into the floor. The floor itself looked incredibly clean, only dirtied by the blood spilled once he hit the floor.His face was still bleeding all over, and his body was still horribly damaged. But he was able to push himself off of the ground.His eyes scanned the room. It wasn't that big, but he could see there was a fair amount in the room.A water dispenser, chairs, a desk, a few plants, and very minimal wiring. "Is this a office?" He thought to himself."Would you look at that," a sinister and cold voice said. Light immediately shot his head up, meeting eyes with the voice's owner."A gift from Charlie is a rare sight..." The owner of the voice got up from his desk, walking s
Kipple was running through the halls, desperately going as fast as possible towards Tyger's cell.He'd prayed in his heart that Tyger was somehow safe and sound. But the more Drakemen prisoners he'd come into contact with, the more and more he'd felt like that wouldn't be true.Bodies were littered left and right throughout the prison. Both of prisoners and guards.His anger continued to boil within him, and so did his worry. He was worried about the chief, about his comrades, about Emilia, about the citizens, about Tyger.... He was worried about Earl.He didn't know the jist of it, but he'd do what he could. He was close now, just one more corner and he would be turning into the corridor of the cell.His heart pounded faster and faster. He was seconds away from knowing if Tyger was dead or alive. So many thoughts ran across his mind, but he didn't have the time for any of that.He turned around the corner, still sprinting at full speed. Ahead he saw them, a sight that was completely
Sidney and the Dragon bandits were soaring through the air. Inside of Jade D, a vehicle that looked like a cross between a jet and a bus, they soared roughly 100 meters in the sky.The sound on the inside of Jade D was loud. The air crashing into the vehicle, the heavy engines keeping the thing flying, it was all way too loud.Sidney was shocked that this thing could fly in the first place. But Viking proved to be a better engineer than Sidney had thought him to be.Spike and Viking were at the pilots seat, flying the thing. Veronica and Ronda sat at a table playing poker, both fully loaded with weapons.Jester was eating his chips quietly, sitting down in between Wolfgang and Hans, who were currently arguing about something.Julian and Sidney were leaning up against windows on opposite sides of the room, looking down.Sidney had binoculars in his hands. Down below it finally came into view, the place they were headed for.The city looked fairly large. What closely resembled people, b
Earl stood dazed for a moment. He was roughly 6 meters away from chief Uvo, and he had Tyger in his hands, but he couldn't believe it.Chief Uvo had a spear made of blood running straight through his chest. And standing in front of him was none other than Dia, the blood Alchemist, clutching the other end of the spear.The chief was stabbed? Was the chief going to die!? Why the hell was Dia here!? The ORA... Of course they'd be responsible for something like this."DAD!!!!" yelled Tyger as he broke free from Earl's grasp, "grab the child!!" Yen's voice rang loud and clear in his head."Tyger!!" Earl reached out and grabbed Tyger, pulling him back as his eyes zeroed on Dia. The second Earl pulled him, a blood spike flew straight into the ground where Tyger once was.Earl shot a glare at Dia. "YOU!!!" He said, almost growling in a cold and sinister tone. Dia finally realised who it was that stood before him."That white hair... That scar on your left arm... How could I miss it?" Smiled D
A huge gust of wind swept the entire arena as Dia took off with Earl in tow. "EARL!!!!" Sidney yelled at the top of his voice, looking up at Dia.His heartbeat was racing, he couldn't believe his eyes. He felt happy, angry, worried, anxious, he felt all sorts of things at the moment.It was so confusing. He didn't know that humans even had this many emotions. "Dia! The ORA sent Dia!!?" Thought Sidney as he watched them get farther and farther."Shit! I finally found you and this happens," said Sidney as he clicked his tongue. "Who are you!!?" A Drakeman soldier asked as he pointed his spear at Sidney.Sidney turned around, that's when he realised he was surrounded. All the traitors in the arena were killed and on the ground, the allies had slaughtered them all.The chief's standing body was still at the centre of the arena. "This is bad," thought Sidney. "Spike said these guys hate humans... And Jester isn't here, I can't convince them I'm on their side," Sidney raised both hands."I
Standing on a pile of corpses was Spike and Jester, along with a few ally Drakemen warriors, all covered in blood and all panting."These men..." One of the Drakemen said, "where did they get this devil's magic?" He asked, turning to Spike."I've never seen a Drakeman use devil's magic by simply swallowing a blue liquid," he added. Spike shook his head, "it's not alchemy.""This is something else. Something a lot more sinister and disgusting," said Spike. "Something isn't right either. Drakemen can't use alchemy because they basically don't have any mana in them. But there's definitely mana in Storm... But it's not normal mana." "What do you mean?" Asked the Drakeman, "this is a drug. It's made with mana but it's not alchemy, and I don't think it simply 'gave' your people the ability to use alchemy, it only strengthened them," said Spike."And if we don't find and take down all these Storm users, it could be really bad," he added.Jester turned to Spike and pointed in a certain direc
