Chapter 1:Blake's Attacker
The first major event in the Faelan's rebellion RP, for this part of the RP I would kindly ask that you use this page and not the comments section as the RP Zone :) Let us begin, have fun people =)
Faelan slapped the mare's rear, sending it north towards the fort. He stood and watched for a short time before turning the other way heading south into the trees. He stopped ina small clearing, searching the ground. He kneeled down by a foot print, and brushed his finger along the inside of it.
Blakes attecker laughed evily and hid where Faelan could not find him. 'Served the little rat right' He said to himself, 'he has done too much to disturb lathias' cause' he paused. 'Far too much!' he sniggered, 'Well now the rat will die and i won't be blamed hehe!'
The elf stopped, for a moment, hearing a slight sound in the bushes behind him. He made out he heard nothing, by simply standing in the moon-light, his hands at his side, he pretended to be examining the foot print.
With a gently movement he ran his left hand along the front of his body and unsheathed the longsword hanging at his side, leaving the scimitar sheathed on his back, knowing that it's glowing blue blade would give him away.
The attacker laughed again and then realised he'd been heard "damn!" he said and ran
Faelan heard him and spun, drawing a dagger from his belt. In a quick flick of the wrist it was released, sticking fast to a tree, barely missing the man's head as he ran.
The attacker ran away quickly. He used all the tricks he knew to avoid faelan.
A familiar figure appeared before Faelan and he skidded to a halt staring in shock at the form of his brother, staring back at him. "Hello brother" Lathias said, an evil grin on his face. "L-lathias?!" Faelan stuttered.
The attacker knew he had gotten away so he made his way slowly to Lathias' headquarters. Lathias would be pleased with his work and his information.
Faelan glared at his brother, his glowing eyes changing to a violet red colour in the night. His left hand clenched around his longsword, hanging at his waist.
Lathias smirked and watched his brother, his eyes cold and filled with a familiar rainbow of dark colours.
"The night is cold and Faelan is out hunting, tis convenient is it not?" Lathias said, steam emerging from his mouth as he spoke.
Faelan stood silently, glaring at his brother.
Shadow appeared at Faelan's side. She put her hand on his shoulder and sighed. "What do you want here Lathias?" she asked
Lathias gave a cruel grin and looked at shadow. "Ah shadow, I see you now hide behind Faelan, it always seems someone is, but why never Faelan doing the hiding?" He grinned slyly.
Faelan reached for the sword hanging from his back, drawing his glowing blue scimitar. "You hurt shadow, and I am here to protect her" He said quietly.
Lathias glared at him momentarily, holding his hand out he muttered in an odd language, blasting both Faelan and Shadow back with a fire-ball.
"No! You will not harm him!" She yelled and threw a fireball back at Lathias
Lathias glared at her as the fire ball exploded, when she stood holding his focus he threw another, without her realising using the power of her fire-ball, and adding it to his, the power of it hit her before the fireball exploded on her, knocking her flyinjg at Faelan.
As Faelan got up he dropped his blade, ensuring that she wouldn't hit it before readying himself for the impact of her body-weight. "LATHIAS, LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS!" he shouted, catching her in his arms. "This fight is between you and I, and has nothing to do with her"
"As you wish, brother" Lathias replied, bringing his arm back and muttering again, his hand glowed blue, he forced it forward, sending a ball of frost at him.
Faelan quickly reacted dropping Shadow on the ground before raising both hands. The frost ball hit him, and Shadow could see it starting to freeze his hands, and crawling up his arms. His eyes glowed a heavy blue as he clenched his freezing fists, absorbing the magic into his body, extinguishing it completely.
Shadow cried out with pain when she was slammed into Faelan. When Faelan dropped her to save himself she looked up at him feeling his anger and feeling his pain. She looked at the ground for a second and began to contruct a barrier around herself and faelan. When she finished creating the barrier she started to make many more, each overlapping the first barrier. She smiled slightly at Faelan. Her forehead was glistened with sweat. She continued to strengthen the barriers. But made the barriers so that faelan's magic and his attacks could exit the barrier.
Balthazar realised that Faelan was not in the castle so he walked out and called one of his hawks. The creature that landed was a giant black hawk, large enough for Balthazar to ride. He took off into the night sky in search for Faelan. He had a good feeling that his powers would be needed for whatever the danger was.
Lathias gave an evil grin, and started to mutter again, waving his arms in a circular motion, when suddenly the barriers broke. "Keep it going Shadow, your power has its limits, and you cannot last forever" he said, his tone cold and chilling.
"Neither can you" Faelan said, kicking his blade from the ground into his hand he hurled it at Lathias who simply looked at it, the blade stopped in mid-air and flew back towards him. Faelan managed to dodge and catch the blade by the hilt, shifting himself into a defensive possition he drew his other blade and moved closer to Lathias.
Balthazar felt the magic from shadow and this new character and headed toward them, hopefully faelan would be with them. He flew as fast as he could quietly whispering to the eagle to hurry. With a loud screech the hawk obliged. Balthazar was now very close and could hear the sounds of the "fight?"
Anya got up from her bed and walked to her wardrobe. Grabbing her dagger, and bow she walked out of the door. She knew she had to travel back to where Faelan had gone off to. She needed to find him..and help him. Hopefully he knows where Lathias is. She knows Lathias knows where her brother is, and she was going to get it out of him. Even if to kills her.
Shadow paled a little and then began to recreate the barriers. Beats of sweat were sliding down her forehead and her supply of power was draining fast. She was fast drawing to the point of exhaustion. WHile she re-created the barriers her hands slipped to the back of her hair where two daggers were hidden. She slipped the daggers out of their sheaths and looked at Lathias. She threw them one after the other. One dagger found it's mark in Lathias' leg. Shadow paled a little more.
Blake awoke in Shadow's library and looked around. The fort was silent. He walked outside and up onto the walls. He surveyed the land and to his surprise he saw bright flashing lights in his forest. He made his way to the gates and whistled for his horse. When the horse drew close he jumped up onto it's back and they rode off towards the forest.
The dagger stuck fast into Lathias' leg, "Yopu believe that was a wise idea child?" he spat at her, lifting her into the air with his magic. "I will break you" his eyes began to glow, and a ball of fire collided with her, knocking her from his mental grasp of her.
Just then Faelan found an opening, charging headlong into the other elf and knocking him off his feet with his shoulder. "Not if I have something to say about it" he said, cutting hard through the air managing to cut the flesh on Lathias' cheek. Lathias glared at him, then using the same abillity lifted Faelan into the air, blasting him with more of his magic. "You will cease this foolishness right now. You are all foolish to fight against me, so, I give you the chance to join me" he said, his eyes cold and dark.
Shadow was thrown across the clearing and landed in a heap by a tree, unconcious.
Faelan turned his head and looked towards Shadow and stood momentarily, blood dripping from his lips.
Shadow coughed lightly but stayed still. Her unconcious form was limp and pale. Blood was dripping from her cheek and from a large cut in her side.
Blake was slowly making his way to the scene of the fight. He crept up slowly and silently. He readied his daggers and then looked out on the scene.
"You're mad if you think I intend to join you, Lathias" Faelan said his tone filled with rage. "Then you're a fool to appose me" Lathias said back, drawing upoon his magical abillity to shake the earth. Faelan stood and stumbled to his knees again. "You will not be allowed to take more lives!" he shouted.
Blake sighed and looked at lathias. He took a magic disabling device out of his pouch and threw it at lathias where it attached itself to his neck. He snarled and looked at Lathias. Then he suddenly looked at faelan "Go! This is your chance!"
Faelan grabbed Shadow and blake, tossing them over his shoulders before taking off, Lathias stood stunned.
"I'm not leaving you behind" He said.
Anya made her way through the forest. She saw Lathias before her. But he could not see her. She knew he could feel her. She swiftly moved inbehind him pushing her dagger against neck. "Where is he Lathias? I know you know where he is." She could feel his power growing. But she knew killing him would mean her brother and Roibens death. She could feel her death coming too. The last time she saw Lathias was when he killed her father. But he left her alive. She could feel the hate she had for him build up. Lathias also put a spell on Anya, taking away her wings, hoping to take away her power to. But he failed.
Faelan halted and turned, "Blake, take shadow back to the fort, something isn't right" he said, turning and running back.
Lathias just glared at Anya, his magic breaking free from the device that had him stunned. "You're a fool to stay here" he said ina cool tone. He lifted his arms, making Anya jump back as he began to mutter again. "ANYA!" Faelan screamed, leapoing out from the bushes. "MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!" before she could move a bolt of lighting shot from his fingers and made for her, striknig Faelan as he leapt in front of her, he collapsed and landed hard on his side, unconscious.
"Foolish brother, most foolish" Lathias said, circling Anya and Faelan.
Balthazar appeared right infront of Latthias's face. His eyes were pitch black and horrors swirled in the air around him. He gave Latthias a lob sided grin, revealing his teeth that were sharpened to a point. "Boo" he said in a quiet tone and grabbed him by the shoulders and driving him onto his back. Balthazar just stared into his eyes. Blood began to drip from Latthias's nose. Bathazar's colour darkened.
Anya screamed and droped to her knees next to Faelan. She could see that he was still breathing. "Faelan wake up..I need you in this fight..please" She could see he wouldn't wake up so it was just her and Bathazar. Picking up her bow she pulled the arrow back and pointed it at Lathias waiting for a sign for her to fire the arrow. "Don't make me say it again Where is my brother Lathias?" she locked eyes with Lathias. As this point she was thinking of a deal she could make. Anything to get him back...then there was Roiben..did he know where he is to?
Latthias screamed as horror entered his head. Graphic images of the underworld. Balthazar darkened a little more as Latthias screamed. Balthazar gritted his teeth and kept the lock together. Latthias, no matter how much he struggled, could not get away from those eyes which seemed to burn into his soul.
Lathias squirmed underneath Balthazar, he closed his eyes, his mind breaking free of Balthazar's magic, he screamed a magical incantation, and before Balthazar and Anya could react, the two of them were blown off their feet by a magical explosion generated by Lathias. "Both of you are fools" He said, his tone dry and cold.
"If I were you..." His fingers began to spark again "...I would leave right now" A bolt of lightening shot at Balthazar, sending him flying into a tree. In that instant the lightening bolt wrapped around his wrists and ankles, tying him to the tree.
Balthazar blinked and stared into Latthias's eyes again. This time muttering a chant at the same time to free himself from the lightning. "You dont know who i work for do you? I am no fool. You are." Balthazar suddenly sent out a darkness shot from his eyes to Lathias's causing momentary blindness "Run ANYA! TAKE FAELAN!"
Anya couldn't give up that easily. Knowing he wouldn't give up easily either. He wouldn't just let them leave without some kind of charge. Since she knew she was the weaker she did the only thing she could do. There was no way they would kill him now..or even get away. Faelan had already fallen..and she hoped her plan may work. "If you let everyone go...You can take me..kill me anything. Even take my magic..since you seemed to fail last time. Just let them go."
Faelan stirred momentarily, Lathias broke free of Balthazar's stare, blasting him with another wave of lightening. "its far too late for that Anya. Far far too late" He said, "You should have taken Faelan when you had the chance, now...I am taking him" his voice grew quiet, "and there is nothing you or your friends can do to stop me" He grabbed Faelan's body before vanishing into nothingness.
"I told you you werea fool, Balthazar" Lathias said in Balthazar's head, "Now your friend is gone, all because of you"
Anya glared at Lathias "Oh course you take him while he's down! It's not Balthazar's fault..you are just WEAK!" she spat at him. "You are nothing but scum." In her head she was casting one of her defense spells. Anya sent a striking pain through his body. Though she was not as powerful as he, she wouldn't just give up.
Lathias laughed in her mind, the power was sent back, amplified by his own as it struck her. "Amazing powers you have Anya, but not enough to save Faelan, for now I bid you fair-well" he said, his laughter fading in her mind...
Balthazar broke the spell as the lightning struck. He fell to the floor smoking. A large hole had been ripped in the front of his robes and the tissue underneath was black and steaming but Balthazar diddnt even notice "It's all my fault" he said disparingly. His eyes returned back to normal. But the light behind them seemed gone. "He's gone. The only one that could stop the war" Balthazar rolled onto his back with effort and stared up in the sky "I need to talk" He said to the sky. He closed his eyes and drifted off into a deep sleep, almost cromatose. He had gone to speak with his gods.
Blake carried Shadow back to his house which was not too far away. He laid shadow on his bed and sighed softly. he wanted her back
Lathias reappeared in a dark place, the entrance to a cave in the woods, he entered quietly, dragging Faelan's unconscious body behind him. "Help me lift him" he said to the figure waiting inside for him. He grabbed one arm.
Placing shackles on on of Faelan's arm, he chained him to the wall, tipping him front-on upside-down to the wall, shackling his wrists and ankles.
Feeling the spell go through her body Anya hit he ground screaming in pain. When the spell finally past she slowly made her way over to Balthazar. She could still feel him in her head and it made her stomache turn. She offered hand a hand to help him up abit,frowning abit. "This wasn't your fault..we weren't ready. We will get him back. But now..we need to get back to the Fort. We need you."
Balthazar was silent. He sat up without assisstance and stood. The real Balthazar wasnt there, this was a shell at the moment. His chest was still smoking and Blathazar looked down at it. Then started walking to the fort. Not paying attention to Anya. Just listening to her.
Anya didn't bother trying to talk anymore. She just stayed behind a bit. Not sure what will happen next. Faelan was her last hope. She felt her protected her..just like her brother did. Not she felt weak. No longer would she feel safe. Sighing she slowly made her way back to the fort. She could no longer see Balthazar and the woods were dark. Shivering a bit she started to walk abit faster 'Great" she mummbled to herself.
Balthazar walked into the fort, scaring a couple of the servants. He sat on the fort steps. Bleeding from the open wound in his chest. A couple of the servants asked him if he was alright. Balthazar gave no response.
Faelan stirred and awoke hanging upside down and shackled to the wall of a wet cave. Lathias was gone. Faelan's body ached, and so did his head. He could barely move,but felt as though he had been here before.
With so much going through her head Anya could not find the way back. Fearing Lathias would come back and finish her off she sat behind a rock. It wouldn't hide her from much but it would do. She was alone now with herself. All she could think of was the others..how everyone was hurt..but her. She got a few cuts..but everyone else. She closed her eyes and tried to block out the thoughts.She wanted to be back in her bed..with Faelan still wondering the halls. But that wouldn't happen.
