The Transformation

[Stoic Soul]

:He took a step back as a beast dropped from the tree to land in front of him. He glared at it, but when he heard Amras' voice, he became confused. He still held his axe at the ready as he spoke, his eyes locked onto the beast before him as he spoke, the blue-white flames casting an eerie glow on his face: Do not bar my way Amras!

[taintedelf]

Amras snarled at Anduin. "Stand down and wait." He didn't move, his bright red tail swishing back and forth behind him as he stared down Anduin. Eyes quickly shifted to Riley, before looking back to barbarian knight. "Like the girl said...this is Gelina's fight for now."

(OK, there is a log of this SL coming to an end that was played out in a chat last night. I am working on editing the log and then it will be posted. Once it is posted, people can continue from there. Thanks.)

[Gelina Grey]

DragonDancer4793: ::The sound hit the wall of the main throne room and it shattered inward sending rubble and debris scattered inward. He reached out with his mind and sneered a sinister sneer as he found Gelina fleeing for her life.. than with a chuckle he seized her in an unbreakable telekinetic grip. Than entering her mind he forced her painfully to change back to her human form and lock her in a much more controlable state before dragging her back to him and holding her frozen immobile before him::

LdyGelinaGrey: Yes, she was in pain. And yes, she was human again. But having him roaming around in her head wasn't the smartest thing he's ever done. Fool. Opening her piercing, gleaming emerald green eyes, she looks at him, her stare boring into his own. "~You fucking fool....~" In his arrogance, she dives into his mind when she sees the opening. "~You just made the biggest mistake... ~" Her voice echoing inside his head, sounding as if it was coming from several different places within in his mind causing confusion. "~You're arrogance is your death warrant.~"

Savior And Sin: Boy that creature had the nerve to talk to him that way. A soft growl issued from his lips as all he felt he could do, was watch. Seeing his Lina hoisted into the air as such really ticked him off, but he stayed out of it for now.

TrinityFlareX: What an arrogant fool he was, not even Riley went iside Lina's mind she knew she was welcomed but she didn't go dancing in only allowed her wolf spirit to embrace her as a true wolf does. The equine sized wolf flicked an ear, figures he would mention the others even if he took notice. Riley moved over to a spot out of reach of the fight but more to simply watch the fool's fate and anyone foolish to even go near Lina in her current state. The lupine laid down along a couch with front paws cross and tail dangled over as ears quite relaxed and at ease despite the scene. Did many truly not understand Lina? Then again Riley had known Lina for about five years or more, having first known the woman when Riley was blind.

DragonDancer4793: ::He narrowed his eyes for a second than gritted his teeth before than laughing an evil soft laugh that sounded more like a hiss. Than following her projection he shoved a telepathic ice dagger into her brain::

LdyGelinaGrey: As the sharp pain shoots through her head, she lets out a scream like no other. Then pushing some of that pain aside, eyes still closed, she, in her mind and his, reaches out and grabs him by the throat and squeezes.

DragonDancer4793: ::He was still levitating in the air with her suspended before him than as she grabbed his throat.. he cocked his head slightly and looked to her:: ~Goddess of the dragons and this is your big defence.. you should have accepted my offer.~

Savior And Sin: "LINA!" He screamed towards the two. Fists clenched into his palms.. so much that claws tore into the material of the glove, digging into the skin. Blood dripped to dot down into the halls. He didn't know who this was, but he did know one thing. "If you mess with her, you mess with us all!!" The shadows began to circulate around his body as his anger grew. The darkness wanted to please their Master in anyway possible.. They'd fight on his command.

DragonDancer4793: ::His black eyes turned toward Kyono and he smiled not making a move to break linas hold but rather he reached out with his power and essentually began to cook Kyonos brain::

TrinityFlareX: The wolf perked up hearing Kyono knowing he was going to do something stupid and brash as just shook her head. She laid there in the grass beneath the tree where she simply watched, though since they were attacking both their minds Riley couldn't see the attacks but she heard the scream which would be instilled in her mind. If Lina didn't finish the bastard off Riley would try. She wasn't immortal, but Lina was. Fur bristled a bit but he would wait, she was a creature of patience.

Savior And Sin: All right. He wasn't going to do anything stupid and brash.. Riley really needed to give him more credit. But feeling that sudden temperature increase, the shadows froze upon his body and he grabbed his head with a grit of those fangs. He could hear the Assassin within his mentality swearing for any type of intrusion. And if this continued, he would step in.

LdyGelinaGrey: That grip still on his perverbial throat, she yanks and twists with all she is. If it didn't snap, it should have. Or damn close. At any rate, it would get his mind off Kyono. After her aggression, she goes quiet and very still. Her mind going blank, her body limp. There was nothing there for him to read. Nothing there for him to hurt. It was as if she had curled up in his mind and simply fallen asleep.

TrinityFlareX: The lycan rose from her spot moving over to the poor Kyono, well first you had to prove yourself not just in a fight to Riley before she gave credit where it was due. Having a ranking name is not going to do shit. Muzzle caught a hold of the male yanking him back as the fur brushed over and the fae magick, a shield came up around them both positioning herself over them to keep them from the attacks and hopefully lessening the brain cooking. Mmm, no as tasty as upside down eyes thank you. She nozed him to check if he was ok before the steel glance once more returned to watch Lina and this other.

DragonDancer4793: ::he released kyono with a kinetic shove into the bushes than turned to lina her violent attack doing little more than chafing the skin on his neck.. he regarded her with ammusement than from within his mind deep deep within Lina could hear a familiar whisper it was incoherent it carried more recognition of identity than anything else... If phoenix was aware of it he made no indication::

LdyGelinaGrey: Even though she could hear that faint sound, she remains completely still, her mind still blank. When he was focusing on letting Kyono go, she dove deeper into his mind, then went still again. Little by little she was making her way in.

Savior And Sin: An arm wrapped around Riley's neck as he was shoved, dragged, then nudged. A small nod of his head as his free hand held it slowly. "..I'm fine Riley...." Pushing himself to stand within that shield as the shadows caressed his body, especially hovering over the scar upon his right arm.. The mark of the Desaku.. his Clan that he ruled. He looked up with those darkly-lined eyes, glaring intensely as if Hell itself would've frozen over.

DragonDancer4793: ::He felt it than smiled and charged up his attack and drove a telepathic battering ram into linas forehead and also at the same time flung her as hard as he could toward the ground while still locking her in human form::

LdyGelinaGrey: She was able to block the visage of the battering ram, but being hurdled to the ground was uncontrolable. When she hits, her body's embedded into the ground a few inches and loud grunt is heard as all the air is knocked out of her lungs. Still in his mind, she lunges at him, takes hold.... and then... well....it was then that all hell broke loose.

TrinityFlareX: She simply watched the end of the world about to happen.

LdyGelinaGrey: Within Gelina's mind, there was a part that Nicho had locked up years ago. Blocking all the pain and anger that she had endured since her childhood. Having learned to unlock that part of her mind on her own, she opens the flood gates. As that mass amount of pain and anger is released, she breaks his hold and pulls herself to her feet, looking up at him as he hovers above. Eyes now firey red, blazing, a deep loud growl coming from deep within her throat. At the same time, in his mind, it was a flood gate that opened. And all her pain rushed into his mind, stunning him, throwing him back and off balance. Now it was her turn. Using the Divine power bestowed on her in her last resurrection, she levetates herself to his level in the sky. Her red hair blowing wildly, eyes still blazing red, boring into him harder than before, teeth grit together as she speaks. "Can you smell that? It's your death..."

DragonDancer4793: ::He was sent reeling back and he grunted slightly before narrowing his eyes and looking at her.. but to her suprise he did not try to block her attach instead he opened himself to it and drew it in.. than like a super nova he thrust his arms out and in the blink of an eye the entire castle exploded into small flecks and scattered away to oblivion.. than he smiled to her as he continued to draw her pain and suffering in charging himself for a massive attack on her::

Savior And Sin: He felt a sudden and dramatic change in his Lina.... He didn't even know what to say... Nothing escaped his lips nor his mind. Dear God. "..My Lina..." He finally whispered after what seemed like an eternity. The wolf inside of him scrambled to surface, but this was not Kyono's fight.

DragonDancer4793: ::Something he did not count on was that brandon was not completely gone as he had so arrogantly assumed and the last little part began to also draw power off what phoenix was taking from lina and using it to build his own strength enough to fight from within... all which was undetected by phoenix::

LdyGelinaGrey: Seeing the castle destroyed, only flared her up even more. In that instant, she physically attacks him, drawing on his fire and his heat, just as he was drawing off her. Crashing into him looked like nothing short of an explosion in the sky. Her power meeting his. Within that explosion, when she touches him, she can suddenly feel Brandon. Not letting it phase her at the moment, she focuses on taking the phoenix out. The mind game was also still going on at the same time. Grabbing a hold of him physically, her hands hold tightly as she conjures up her Amythest Myst, wrapping it around them both in a binding way. He thought he had her in a state where she couldn't move? Ha! Now he was stuck! If you didn't know how to use the Amythest Myst, you couldn't get out of it. Period. Back in his mind, she dives even deeper, following the faint trail of Brandon. She knows that he's going to be on her heels the moment he realizes he can't move, so she knows she has to move quickly.

TrinityFlareX: "-sw- This is why oi said what Oi did earlier... if ye'd gotten te close she would've had ye felt that tei." It was in a way of an aplogy with being so sharp with him, she merely watched the fight once againt he shield keeping any debris from falling on them.

Savior And Sin: "..I understand Riley..." He couldn't help but lay a hand gently upon the lupine's head. It may have been the wolf inside that had done it subconsciously, but it didn't seem to matter anymore. From now, he looked on.

DragonDancer4793: ::As she hit him it was like hitting a brick wall and he laughed letting the energy of their collision disperse outward causing a shock wave that spread out through the lands causing everything to go hay water from the lake spiraled. It was then he realized he could not move.... huh he had underestimated her.. no matter he was a god.... He senced it she was searching for something... Phoenix stopped fighting and went eerily calm. Brandon felt her within him and with the last small shred of his consciousness called to her... He also felt the phoenix lock in on him as well:: ~Lina help me~ ::It was him but very faint.. weak and pathetic sounding.. he had been stripped of everything that made him what he was::

LdyGelinaGrey: Keeping her hold on him was draining, but she didn't let up. As she dove deeper, she felt him go calm and stopped then heard Brandon's voice. That was all she needed. Her strength renewed, she shoots through his mind and straight for Brandon. It would be by the scales of her dragon tail that she makes to Brandon before the Phoenix can figure it out. To lessen the attacks on her, she suddenly tightens the tendrils of Myst around him, squeezing him so hard, that if it was any harder, he would be cut in half. The only thing he did was tax some of her strength, not her resolve. ~No, you don't. You must die.~ It was in that moment that she found the small piece of Brandon that was left.

DragonDancer4793: ::As she shot through his mind she was bombarded with attacks that would tax her resolve slowly and surely the phoenix was not going to give up without a fight:: ~Lina I must destroy him~ ::Blood begins to seep from his nose and he grunts lightly before surging through his own mind after her:: ~I am too weak to do what must be done, Lina I need you to energize this spark of what is left of me I will finish this once and for all~

LdyGelinaGrey: Upon reaching him, she latches on in their minds, giving him whatever she had left in her. Once all her energy was transfered to him, it was like time stopped. The Myst faded away, the fires died down, and Gelina, the Grand Duchess of GoldenMyst, fell from the sky to the ground below.

DragonDancer4793: ::He felt her release him and caught her lowering her to the ground where he smiled now having temporary control again, he layed her gently on the ground and knelt by her and kissed her forehead he could already feel the phoenix starting to take control again.. :: Thank you Gelina ::he looked to riley and Kyono:: Help her please.

TrinityFlareX: The shield fell away, the wolf took her step from Kyono walking in stride over towards Lina and Brandon as ears twitched and a muzzle pointed towards Lina. She shifted into her human form looking to Brandon for a moment before she opened her arms to take Lina's body into her own embrace.

LdyGelinaGrey: Now on the ground, she lies unconscious and broken. She'd taken a beating this time, more so than ever before.

DragonDancer4793: ::with that he rocketed up into the sky transforming into his dragon form and began a rapid climb straight up toward the heavens.. the flames were already beginning to cover his massive form::

Savior And Sin: He walked out beside Riley as the shields fell, and knelt before Riley as she took Lina into her arms. The shadows still traveled around his body as he glanced at Riley gently. If she wanted him to help, he would.. He could heal her. But if she wished him to back away, he would.

TrinityFlareX: Another fix, a sigh escaped Riley as it seemed another man had come to ruin what she'd been trying her best to fix first it was aheart broken and now it was her mind. Grimacing a bit.

LdyGelinaGrey: Not only was her mind a mess, but her body as well.

DragonDancer4793: ~Lina if you can hear me thank you~ ::he climbed higher the flames steadily climbing over his entire form.. the large rdragon resembling a reverse shooting star in the night as he climbed higher and higher. He was now just a dragon shaped flame as he pushed higher and higher the phoenix now starting to assume command again.. but with the last bit of energy lina had given him he surged higher and higher until he had gone so high that there was not enough oxygen in the air to sustain the fire and the flames still visible from the ground began to extinguish slowly but surely they began to die.. and with the flames the phoenix.. and with the phoenix what was left of brandon... the ascention stopped and the fires burned out the night air filled with the screams of a dying phoenix and the large body of a dragon began to fall. He fell only a few hundred feet or so when the phoenix imploded causing a shock wave of massive energy to spiral outward and as it passed over the kingdom in an instant everything the phoenix had destroyed was righted.. the castle replaced unscathed and healing energy passed to lina and kyono.. and as sparks fell from the sky like stars the night went quiet and brandon was no more::

Savior And Sin: He couldn't help but reach out and touch Lina's forehead. What's happened to her, my Future...? Don't be stupid... You saw... I did... Must we go into her mind again...? He withdrew his hand with a small sigh, not about to reply.

TrinityFlareX: She held Lina, did she dare go into that mind, no not yet but she knew that Lina would heal best in Riley's arms. "Ye'll be fine love, seems Oi'm fixin' ye up once more. Ye may follow, Kyono if'in ye choise te. But de nat get in me way, Oi say this nicely as possible." She wasn't a woman of diplomatic disposition but rather harsh and brunt; which Lina knew. Arms tucked under the knees and around the small of the back to lift the woman up striding off towards the meadow.

LdyGelinaGrey: It was going to take more than just Riley holding her to heal her this time. Broken mind and broken bones. Of course she wouldn't die because she was immortal, but she was going to be in a hell of a lot of pain.

TrinityFlareX: Oh she knew it would, the river was actually a healing place.

Savior And Sin: He followed after Riley. No matter what she said, he would help in some way.

DragonDancer4793: ::The night fell quiet and eerily peaceful stars gleeming brightly night birds cawing their soft cries but as for Brandon LeBeau there was no sign::
