[b][i][u]Friend in Need[/u][/i][/b]
[b]Kross, Lord of Cinder, stood in the middle of the arena, spinning around as the head of Knight rolled across the ground.
His blades Clashed with those of a second Knight, and Kross was kicked backwards.
He grunted as he took a step back, and sliced the Knight's throat open with His own blade
The Knight fell to his knees, and the simulation came to an end as Royal entered the arena [/b]
"Kross?"
[i]"What do you wish from me Roy?" [/i]
"I just want to talk... You've been. Distant."
[i]"I murdered Watcher. I am entitled to a rest, am I not?" [/i]
"Yeah-"
[i]"Then leave. I do not wish to speak of anything regarding to my problems as you refer to them." [/i]
"Is this what Hawkwood would want? For you t-"
[i]"Do not say his name. You have no right to say his name. I became his friend. His brother in arms! Then I killed him. The way I killed Watcher. The way I killed the Firekeeper. The way I Killed Aldrich, and Pontiff! I am becoming a monster! Don't you see?" [/i]
"If we spend our time fighting monsters, looking through their eyes. It's bound to happen that we become the-"
[b]Before Royal could finish, Kross' blade was exiting his back [/b]
[i]"Do not speak to me, of being a monster...." [/i]
[b]Kross with drew his blade and sheathed it, while walking off.
Royal fell to his knees, his vision blurring as Kross exited the arena, and disappeared. [/b]
[spoiler]OPEN! The beginnings of a plot! [/spoiler]
English
-
"The Lord of Cinder, right? Yeah, I guess that explains it a bit." He was tying a bandage that wrapped around Royal's chest and sealed both wounds. The part of the bandage that touched his wounds turned to flesh and healed him. "You alright?"
-
"Ye -" [b]Before Royal could finish, Garin was sent skidding backwards across the ground Standing over Royal was a Knight, with a blue plume extending from his helmet [/b] [b][i][u]Artorias, The Abysswalker [/u][/i][/b]
-
Garin wipes his sleeve across his mouth. "What the hell...? Listen pal, you go around kicking people like that..." He shook his head and drew his sword.
-
[b]Before Garin could do anything, Royal and Artorias were gone. [/b] [spoiler]Fair Warning: This plot will contain boss fights, many, many boss fights! Your characters have a chance of death, a very small one but it is a chance. If you don't want to die or anything, please back out now [/spoiler]
-
Garin scrambled to his feet, slashing NO at air as Artonius disappeared. "Shit..." [spoiler]No one[/spoiler] [spoiler]NO ONE[/spoiler] [spoiler]ATTACKS MY 2 FAVORITE CHARACTERS [/spoiler] [spoiler]AND LIVES [/spoiler] [spoiler]*pounds chest*[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]One of my characters is your favorite? Thanks :)[/spoiler] [b]Behind Garin, the sounds of footsteps were heard [/b]
-
He turned to look at who was there, unsheathing his other sword.
-
"Easy there Garin." [b]Was the response, as Nathaniel, son of Ornstein and Nora, raised his hands slightly. Besides him stood a two Metre tall man, with a red flowing cape on his back and red hair. Iskandar, King of Conquerors [/b]
-
"Really? You brought that asshole?" He shook his head in disbelief, then smiled. "It's good to see you, Nate." [spoiler]...[/spoiler] [spoiler]Jeez, how many kids did they have?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Two. Nathaniel, and his sister Olivia. Iskandar isn't one of their children, he's just here [/spoiler] "You too Garin. Can you tell me what the hell just happened?
-
"I was cleaning my weapons just over there when Kross stabbed Royal through his chest. I healed him as best as I could, then this guy with a purple feather in his helmet kicked me and disappeared with Roy. That's pretty much it."
-
"So, Kross and Artorias? No, no no.... It's happening sooner than we expected."
-
"What is? Nathaniel, is there something I need to know?" He leaned towards him to emphasize his point.
-
"There's something everyone needs to know..." [b]He sighed, looking at the ground [/b] [i]"Speak up boy!" [/i] "Well, as you know. Kross is a Lord of Cinder. He earned that title after defeating Aldrich and Pontiff." "These two, were bloodthirsty. Monsters. And when Kross took their souls, he took their burden. He disappeared for nearly a decade, trying to satiate this bloodlust but was never able to conquer it." "Until he released their souls. Since he conquered them. When he killed Hawkwood, this bloodlust returned and he started devolving. Much like Pontiff devolved."
-
Garin shook his head and kicked the ground. "SHIT! F-CKING ALDRITCH?! HE RELEASED HIM?!" He continues to yell and curse but eventually calms down. "So what's the plan?"
-
"We have two options. We need to show Kross that he is lost. Or we need to take him down."
-
Garin chuckled and grinned. "I'll call the rest of the crew and fill them in. Now, that includes Ian, okay?"
-
"I do not care who you bring. Just insure they do not anything rash."
-
"Right." He turned away for a moment to pull out his phone and call Ian. Within a few minutes, Ian, Dmitri, and Harlock were all there. Ian: "So, we're going to kill Lross and save Royal?" He shook his head. "I guess." Garin: He glares at Ian before turning to Nathaniel. "We're all here."
-
"Now then. We'll need to figure out where Kross has gone. And we'll need to contact some Dight members."
-
Ian sneered at the mention of the Dight, only for Garin to glare at him more. "All right. And Kross and Artorias are probably worked together, right?" Garin shook his head. "I have no idea how to track him... Wow."
-
"Yeah. Let's see. The souls he has are these: Aldrich, Pontiff Sulyvahn, Artorias, Hawkwood, Watcher, Gwyn, Hawkeye Gough and finally. The soul of a Firekeeper." "He can use any of these while they are under his control. Which means we'll have to battle them to get to Kross."
-
[spoiler]8 f-cking bosses[/spoiler] [spoiler]i can't believe this shit[/spoiler] "Watcher? How the hell...?" Garin closed his eyes for a moment, then regained his composure. "So as we defeat each one, Kross becomes weaker and weaker?"
-
[spoiler]Yee. This is why Kross is so fúcking Broken in some ways. You'll probably end up fighting three. Depending on who actually joins [/spoiler] "Watcher was killed a few days ago. After he attempted to assassinate Royal"
-
"Two attempts on his life in two days. Just can't get a break, can he?" He let out a sad sigh. "Listen, notify me when you get a lead, alright?" He turned to Ian and the group and they all joined hands. Garin reached his free hand out to wave before clasping Dmitri's hand and disappearing in a flash of light. [spoiler]end[/spoiler] [spoiler]must sleep [/spoiler]
