Crystal Saga, Saga Three!!

[Gaara]

The ash had long blown away.
The darkness in the forest, gloom and miserable.
Everyone who had left Castle Oblivion, Had long moved on with their lives.
It's two years later.
The Dark Legion Military runs all and everything.
Those not on there side were rebels.
The world had fallen into torment and distruction.
Technology has entered the world, but swords and guns worked hand in hand.
Machinery operated everything.
The Machinery was operated by Soliders, Of the Dark Legion.
It was hard to escape them.



A young boy ran throught the forest.
Red flash lights glaring behind him.
Mech hounds ran at the feet of Heavly armoured Mech soliders.
The boy was unarmed and was now running for his life as he was shot at.
His blonde hair waving infront of his face as he ran.
"I can't....Let them...Catch me..." He gasped.

[Lanawar]

A Slim figure burst through thet trees. He was wearing Bright yellow armor, and had a large, full body shield on his left arm and a long white bastard sword on his back. At his sides were a white cutlass, and a white saber. He crashed into the soldiers with his shield. His helmet looked like it had seen better times, although it was brand new. Lately he had been making ambushes that led to him getting hit on the head. After he had made sure he knocked down most of the soldiers, He looked at the hounds, who now stared at him. He jsut smiled back, and laughed as a huge polar bear came lumbering through and destroyed two on the spot. Soon after a black raptor and a mountain lion were there too, helping the fight. In his head, A voice talked to him. Turn around and start heading that way fast. Theres a little boy...Forget about the soldiers, the kid could be in trouble! The man looked up to see a giant bird sweeping through the sky. "Thanks Phearal!" The man called out, running towards where the bird was guiding him. He quickly came to the boy. "Are you okay?" He asked quickly, looking around. He was supposed to be in a warband with some orcs, but they had gotten slaughtered, all except for one. They were supposed to meet up with a large group of Scouts, from Dregshile. They never came, but instead were killed. "My name Is king Lanawar...I'm here to help...Have you seen a hairy orc around here? With a grey fist? Or any humans or elves that weren't evil?" He asked. If this boy had any information, he could be saved. The orc could survive, but there were also some people in the scouts that he really needed to have with him right now.

[Edward Elric]

A dark, small figure jumped out from behind the trees and pull a largel barrel pistol from her back pocket. Her free hand grabbed the boys. Her hair was long and dirty blond and she had a red and black mini skirt. She was ordained in crosses and held a fixed glare. Her lips hardly moved as she whispered to the boy next to her. "Come with me and no one will hurt you, I promise." She held the group with a glare as she waited for his reaction. Her name was Nina, but she never told abybody that because of identity reasons these days. Any one could hunt down another for knowing anything, and arrest them if they knew their names. Nina took a small step back, pulling the boy along. Then dashed into the trees at lightening speed.

There was a dark mist cascading over the falls as the sun rose over the world of Dregs. The peacful little town below was asleep and restful for the danger had been driven out of their home for good. Silently an elf preformed a magic to cross to her home dimension, where she'd grown up for her entire life. The tatto on her arm, which twisted and curved around her muscles started to glow. The light around her pulsated and she vanished. Opening her eyes, she found herself in the forest just outside of a market place. Things had changed alot since she'd grown in the past years. vilolence was everywhere. Gangs, wars, guns, swords, whatever pople could get their hands on they used to hurt others. 'It's been a long 2 years, i wonder if he misses me.' She had left the one she loved to go on a mission, a dream hald told her that noghjt they had slept in peace in her heart. She never left his love, but just went on a trip to help the other world. He understood, he'd said to her. Though she still longed to see his face again, and taste his lips. Alamera, Queen of the elfs now in this world was in hiding along with all the other elfs of her nation. They were being hunted for their reacial and cultureal background. No one understood the details, but her of course. Her Black and white attire ranked her, but it didn't helped to hide her from unwanted eyes. She sat in a tree and silently listened with her thoughts. She coul hear the thoughts of a strong young girl and a frightened boy coming near, but she waited.

[Gaara]

The boy bit the mysterious womans arm and ran.
He signaled for The amn in amour to follow him.
He ran straight for a long cave, but deep inside something was waiting.

Dye yawned and rolled back over in his tent. He had had another dream about castle oblivion.
"Chase...Lanawar..." He thought aloud.
He removed his blankets and exited his tent. He stood outside in the cool, brisk breeze of the night...in his underwear.
"It's been two years now...I wonder if they even remeber me?" he asked a deer that just happened to be wondering by.

[Edward Elric]

Nina cringed and glared at the back of the boy. "How dare you!" She yelled as she bolted after the boy. Her eyes held a hungry look now as she chased him. Never would she forgive him. Her crossed covered skirt flared in her speed through the trees.

Alamera heard their new thought waves and opened her eyes. 'Trouble.' She thought. She jumped down out of the tree and landed on the pine floor smoothly. The memory flashed through her head of the time she'd done this catching a rabbit. She smiled then followed the thoughts. 'Poor girl, i wonder how she works?' She thought as the girls thought wavered in being.

[Lanawar]

Lanawar looked at the girl, but followed the boy without asking questions. His long strides brought him up to the boy fast, and he began a slow jog trying to see if he could find out anything from him. "What's your name? Are you okay?"

[Edward Elric]

Nina caught up and saw the man in yellow armor talking with the boy. She hid behind a tree and glanced at her arm where the boy had bite her. "Pesky, theiven little runt, i'll show him." She whispered as she healed the wound with a little power from the cross around her neck. SHe spied closely and made sure she could hear what they were saying. She watched as he asked the boy questions, getting her pistol ready just in case.

Alamera saw her stop and climbed back into the trees as she neared her hiding place. 'So she's a spi, hmm.' She thought. Then she heard what the boy and the other man were saying. She still hadn't realized it was Lanawar, and he probably wouldn't recognize it was her, for her attire had changed too.

[Lanawar]

Lanawar stopped suddenly. Saphire was talking in his head, warning him. There are two females nearby. Be careful....I feel like you know one....The other has one of those new weapons....A guune is it? Lanawar looked around quickly then looked at the boy. "Hurry...Theres something watching us...."

[Edward Elric]

Nina heard them stop and saw a creature come into view. "I've been seen." She jumped from behind the tree and pointed the gun at the tall, Man in Yellow. "Who are you and what is it you want with the boy? And boy, why'd you bite me? It's not safe to do that now adays." She glared at them again, her size was daunting for she only looked 14 but she was old, much older, and she had magic too. They really underestimated her.

Alamera felt the unnerving thoughts from the thickly built yellow plated man, she closed her eyes and listened to their conversation. She heard they had spoted the girl and possibly herslef, and that the boy was being questioned, then the girl jumped out and started asking questions. Alamera waited, not wanting to reviel her where abouts, she still didn't recognize the man, but he felt... familiar. 'I'm so sorry Lanawar for leaving, if you were only here now, i miss you soo much, i long to protect you and help you. Lanawar.' She trailed deep within her self.

[Lanawar]

All four of the Animals ran out of hiding and stood in front of the boy as Lanawar walked out to the girl. "Do it...I dare you..." He slowly brought the kings sword up in the air. "For Dregshile!" He yelled, his voice echoing through the forest. Take the boy and leave! I promise I'll be alive when you come back...You all know that I promised Alamera I wouldn't leave her...And I'm not about to die! He yelled at them, and the polar bear lowered her back so the boy could climb on. For the first time ever, she spoke to someone else. [Hurry up boy, You could get hurt!]

[Edward Elric]

Alamera imidiatly jumped from the tree infront of the gilr, gaurding her from the sword that the strong soldier like man held. The name revirberated in her head, the Dregshile, it was familiar, no one could possible use that word in death. She thought aloud, so all could hear, still her lips did not moved. 'Stop, no man can kill with that kingdoms name, i knew a great king who came from there, How dare you use it in vain!' Her eyes shoot up and looked him straight in the eyes as his sword began to fall.

Nina stared at the girl. Her white and black attire struck a chord in her mind. "The elfs in hiding." She whipsered not audible even to her own ears. Sowly she lowered her pistle and waited.

[Lanawar]

Lanawar stopped, and stepped back. "There have been no great kings from there for the last few years. The one who rules now has lost his heart, although his soul remains with him, he treats people with a coldness that only a madman could have. I should know...Now lower your sword. It matters not who you are...You should never treat a king with disrespect. There is little left in the world for me, and part of that is my honor. You wish to protect someone who would dare pull that out on me, and yet you know nothing of who you protect her from." He said coldly, shutting his eyes. In the distance he heard a stuble and a scream. It was getting closer and soon was in view. A young man, dressed in the dark blue of the Dregshile. "My liege! I heard you call. The vanguard has been ambushed and most killed. One of the orcs we heard you were traveling with is captured! I've heard that you too were ambushed...I'm sorry that I have failed you..." The man bowed his head low, and dropped on one knee. "Stand up, and call me not your liege. You have not failed me, but by surviving and telling me of what you have learned you have surpassed what I could have thought. By your clothes I suppose you are an Elite Assasin, from the Vanguard?"
The man answered him slowly, stuttering at how calm the king was, even with a girl bhind him with her sword raised, and another with a pistol. "Ye-Yes....My lie-....King Lanawar...Elite Clark Thomas, Assassin support for the Vanguard." Something Sparked in his heart....Someone had called him by his first name....Something that hadn't been done since Alamera left...."Do you mind If I call you Clark?" Lanawar asked, turning back to the woman. Clark agreed and then looked at the woman. "Are they...With us?" He asked, only to be answered with a quick grimace.

[Edward Elric]

Alamera's eyes widened in shock.' Protect? Honor? you talk to me of honor, i saved my poeple and many others and i protect whats most dear to me! ...' she paused as the man spoke his name. ' Lanawar? You're king Lanawar? You've changed so much!' Her bright blue eyes looked up at him questionally. Still lips did not part. She lowered her sword and let her arms fall to her sides. A smile flung up on her face. 'I've missed you soo much Lanawar!' But she daren't make a move incase he'd forgoten who she was. She feared this greatly.

Nina waited paitiently and watched Clark closely.

[Lanawar]

His eyes opened wide, and for the first time in a long time he cried. "Alamera...Is it you?" He took a step closer, but carefully watched her. As he started to recognize her facial features his sword dropped, and then his shield. "I can't believe it...Please tell me it's really you..." He wanted to hug her, to make sure she was safe, but he was still aware of the otehr girl.

Clark eyed both the woman and sneered at the one with the gun. "Put that thing down, before my Dagger is in you're throut!" He pulled out a long jeweled dagger. One of my gifts to myself He thought as he gave it a quick stare, a look of awe came on his face as he recognized what his king was talking about. "You're the great Alamera?!?"

[Edward Elric]

'Lanawar!' She flung himself into his arms, 'I've missed you to much, it's been to long, i'm sorry for leaving, but they were calling me, i had to help them.' She sighed as his arms closed around her. She looked up at the name as he asked her a question. 'Great? what has happened here in the last 2 years, please tell me!' She breathed in his sweet scent and sighed.

Nina lowered her gun and glared at him, "i had no intention of shooting, trust me, i was only trying to help. " She looked at him and added, "My name is Ayina."
