David
"An interesting art of pyromancy. Tell me what do you think of the flame The Dark One has given us? Obviously they are different in nature, but just out of curiosity."
Antonia
`"I would say nothing compares to the warmth and protection the blood flame provides you will say the same about the flame the dark one provides you, just a matter of perspective."` *He would say as he looked at him he couldn't feel the warmth of the flame from the dark one because his blood flame didn't allow him to do he was indifferent about it.*
David
"Interesting. To each their own, I'd say." 
*He peered behind Faedon to look Roku.*
"And who is the demon behind you?"
Antonia
`"A familiar I have, or a summon, but she is anchored to this world as long as I breathe and as long as she feasts on humans. Why do you ask?"` *He turns to look at roku*
George
*Looks at the cult member and blinks quietly she couldn't speak nor did she have a voice in her head she never dreamed or perceived herself as taking so she wouldn't have an inside voice in her head or could even dream about talking without ever doing it before.*
David
"Just curious. Back home we live in a society of various demonic races and creatures. She didn't look familiar so I thought I would ask. Now then let's get down to business. Unfortunately I'm afraid I can't let you go just yet. It's far too dangerous in this dungeon, we had to fight our way through here. Also if your friends are capable then they would expect you here. Seems logical yes?"
Antonia
`"I don't see a reason why I can't leave. If I wish to explore this dungeon further, without help that's on me. My friends are very capable, I am here to find them so we can leave nothing of worth in the dungeon seeing as you and your group have made it this far unhindered."` *He stated*
David
"If you leave The Raptors will surely rip you apart. We can't command them from here, they act as sentries. You may take whatever you please except for any tome or book. Those will go with us, that should be more than fair as we were here to begin with."
Antonia
`"Question for you, if you were to come across a human, would you kill them since there a light being? Or anyone that doesn't agree with your dark one?"` *He questioned the man curious* `"What are you exactly why are you in a tomb what do you have to gain from this place?"` *It could taken into account asking so many questions while surrounded wasn't a good idea.*
David
*The Noble beamed at him.* "An inquisitive mind, a strong characteristic. We would kill humans who threaten us or demon kind. Seeing that you and your familiar are working in tandem then you have no quarrel with us. We are here excavating knowledge, this tomb goes back to the estimate time when Lord Vylius was alive. We might find something here if interest. Ah, as for your last question we are human."
Antonia
*Was slightly started as the noble beamed at him he narrowed his eyes* `"Mm what is classified as a threat to demon kind... Any demon that kills an innocent must be put to death this is the way... I have put dozens of demons to rest, I hope you find the knowledge you seek. Are you in search of your lord or simply looking for answers to find out more about him."` *He mentioned he killed dozens of demons without thinking twice as to him an evil demon was one that killed innocents*
Jennifer
*The guards murmured to one another as they drew their weapons.*
David
*Noble Vincent waved a hand dismissively calling them off.* "We are researching to benefit him. Bold of you to say that you kill demons when you have one as a familiar."
Antonia
*Placed his hand on the handle of his blade* `"She is my valkyrie, she only kills those who deserve it those who are innocent she will not touch, that is the difference demons that would for example slaughter an innocent unsuspecting family that has done nothing but spread kindnesses deserves to die, not because I hate them but because they must be free from there suffering. As mercy from the blood flame we aim for the neck to kill them swiftly instead of torture with magical holy weapons or magic."` *He stated.*
George
*As they free there weapons her claws began to grow and her feet claws growled as she spread her wings and her snout began to grow with her teeth growing protective from there movement of drawing there swords.*
David
"Really now. So tell us boy, why haven't we already slaughtered you or went out of our way to raid that village nearby us? Surely the Raptors wouldn't be able to help themselves but yet here they are with us."
Antonia
`"You are human not demon, a human can be a monster but can never be a demon, the raptors are simply animals, animals are known to create bond with others even if they can't be fully tamed they feel some sense of responsibility to there masters."` *He smiles softly.*
David
"How... Hypocritical of you." *With a quick motion he casts a wall of black flames between both Roku and Faedon.* 
"You keep a demon as a slave and you have the audacity to speak such words. You will not leave here alive! Kill this imbecile!"
Jesus
*The 22 guards drew their weapons and converged on Faedon and Roku their weapons in attack stances.*
Antonia
*Had to think quick a wall of black flames separated him and Roku unsheathing his sword* `"She is no slave but here of her free will."` *Maybe he should have had a better choice of words his brows furrowed he needed to get back to ruko, around him placing his sword Infront of him '**Blood art flowing water**' from the tip of his blade a water blood substance erupted out it was thick and flowing up to 3 feet in length but as thick as ocean waves in the air he used blood step forward towards the noble, his sword went low to the ground barely grazing as the flow of the water lead his blade towards the nobles neck as he tried to kill him it would leave the blood ocean waves behind for 10 seconds as he had move left then right to get into position to do this move.*
George
*Stood there quietly blinking she turned to look at the guards, as the flame wall formed, she needed to get to Faedon she spread her wings and began to fly as she flapped her wings at the flame she needed to get to Faedon that's all the mattered.*
David
*The Noble would respond first placing his hand on the ground and casting a spell.* 
"Dark Eruption!"
*Pillars of black fire erupted in front of Noble Vincent and around Faedon that reached the very ceiling of the dungeon evaporating the water from the concentrated heat.*
Jesus
*The guards were second to respond. They dashed at Faedon and Roku then stopped abruptly 3 feet away from them. Then their weapons would erupt with black fire as they spun their weapon the black fire grew larger and larger with every swing until it convered the entirety of the room before striking their weapons downwards causing a massive black fire explosion coming from each of the 22 guards.*
Antonia
*Looked Infront of him and his sword would collide with the pillar slicing it in half but saving the noble, he winces as he felt the force of the pillar when his blade went through his hands were trembling 'blood dance' he took off in super human speeds after an inhale, and jumped off the broken pillar and towards Roku using his kimono as protection from the wall of flames grabbing her he jumped off the wall and behind the guards that casted there magic, to avoid the flames.

*Blood slashes form 4, blood flame sword to extend the attack of his weapons so if they block his sword still gets through he lunged at the first guard below him his kimono ablaze in a black fire as his blood flame took over as he lit his kimono in his own flame knowing it wouldn't cause him to much harm, his sword was swung in a downward motion to the first guards neck as he was coming straight down from the ceiling if it didn't he would land and prepare for a counter attack*
George
*Was snatched from the air as Faedon pulled her to the corner away from the flames she watched him barrel straight down to a knight below him she followed suit ready to attack the knight beside him extending her talons on her feet out to pick up the knight and rip his neck out with her fangs*
Jesus
*Unfortunately for them once they got through the pillars of black fire they ran right into the 22 guards black flame tornado art. Their weapons were ignited with black flame that spread across the ground further and further with each swing and then once a forth swing was completed each 22 guards would slams their weapon down creating a 3 ft aoe dark explosion effect which Faedon would jump right into. If somehow Faedon would survivor the initial black flame weapon art his weapon would collide with the guards black flame weapon.*
Antonia
*Had shifted by swinging his sword to the left mid air so his feet could just barely touch the wall he kicked off to angle himself away from the black flaming tornado his blood dance allowed him to turn mid air he sent himself flying through the air with his hands still on his sword but he had now flung himself across the room from 15, feet in the air going sideways to the ground once he hit the ground the wind would be knocked out of his body as he inhaled as best he could to get air coughing, before panting heavily his hair falling across his face, they won't let him get close his body rolled arose the ground after the initial thud his hands glided across the ground he gritted his teeth as his body tensed up for a moment closing his eyes almost blacking out from the force of hitting the ground his arms began bleeding and the bandages began to get coated in droplets of blood putting his hand down he summoned a blood knight a blood knight 6 feet tall with a sword and shield formed Infront of faedon it's shield could cover it's whole body and in turn protect faedon from anymore flame attacks, it rose it's sword ready for battle.*
George
*Used her wings and spread them flying away from the flames she would be use to faedon if she was dead she could move fast in the air she saw faedon basically in a desperate attempt to survive throw himself she followed him as he hit the ground she landed beside him spreading her wings and let out a scream that was silent but it was in such a high frequency it could make eardrums bleed.*
David
*Noble Vincent covered his ears because of the scream and was brought to his knees. He placed his hand again on the ground and yelled out a spell.*
"Dark Eruption!!!"
*While the knight could protect Faedon from the front and the back could it protect him from below as the pillars of fire would erupt underneath Faedon and once again soar to the ceiling.*
Jesus
*The apostles were also brought to their knees because of the high frequency scream but were unable to cast the same spell Noble Vincent had so they just sat there covering their ears.*
Jennifer
*This also had an unintended side effect. Her scream would echo throughout the dungeon and eventually reaching the raptors that were scattered throughout the dungeon which immediately came sprinting back toward the main chamber.*
Antonia
*Began to stand slowly up pushing on the ground still disoriented from hitting the ground and catching his breath he hesrd the spell being cast and used blood dance back stepping as he bolted to the door his blood knight turned and began to follow them as Roku followed suit as they all began to run to the exit, they didn't know what else lay in the dungeon but now they had to fight 22 knights Faedon wanted to separate them so it could be easier to fight instead off all 22 he sprinted into the hallway at full speed well for his life panting and huffing, and puffing out of breath sweat from nervousness fell from his head and being slightly fearful of dying.*
David
*Noble Vincent had lost hearing in one ear as blood dropped down from the rupture.*
"After them!!!" *He yelled as he was affected by ringing in his other ear. He pulled out the book he was reading and began to laugh.* 
"I'll show Vylius's incompetent generals what real power looks like." 
*The noble began to chant an ancient spell.*
Jesus
*The 22 guards left Noble Vincent's side as they pursed the pair.*
Jennifer
*Meanwhile ahead of them Roku and Faedon could hear the all too familiar sound of clicking of claws against the dungeon floor.*
Antonia
*Sprinted forward his knight took lead as it's heavy steps echoed through the chambers, he turned and stopped as he extended his left hand out 'flame of blood' out from his palm a torrent of blood like flames coated the ground as it rolled up into the ceiling ripping the ground up and peeling back the stone floors too layer and walls, as the flame like ocean barrels towards them this flame wouldn't go out it was like an eternal flame it would burn for hours, without letting up. He turned back around and sprinted again with Roku flying beside just above him.* `"Don't let those raptors hit you with there spikes it will make you hallucinate."`
Kelly
*The blood knight charged forward with it's shield raised toward the direction of the raptors towards the pathway to escape the knight took position to hold off the raptors so Roku and faedon could get through it rose it's sword to the side of it's shield.*
Jennifer
*The 6 raptors heard the giant knight's footsteps coming toward them and they scrambled out of the way. They ran to each side of the room and attached themselves to both the walls and the ceiling. Each of them waited until the knight and the pair reached the middle of the room as they flicked their tails sending 6 bursts of black spikes toward the group from literally all directions.*
Jesus
*The apostles were stopped dead in their tracks by Faedon's Bloodflame. To respond to this they began literally fighting fire with fire by casting their own black flame onto it hoping that theirs would be dominant over the bloodflame.*
Antonia
*Made it to the door he took a deep breath before gritting his teeth '**Blood art flowing water**' again the art he used before now there wasn't anything to burn his blood water away he swung his sword as his eyes tracked the spikes Infront and to the sides of him now using his 'blood dance art form 3 together he created after images of himself with the same water ability Infront of him behind him to the sides of him 5 of them his limit of them they each swung to deflect or destroy him being the real one deflected each one that came his way as his eyes began to strain and water, as the spikes would leave sparks coming off his blade if any of the afterimages or mirages were hit they would take the attack but it would be as if he was punched in the area it hit on the mirage.*

*The knight ran behind Faedon seeing as he had the front covered and rose his shield to protect his backside as Faedon pressed forward to the door*
George
*Dodged mid air and flew across the ceiling as she folded her wings around herself then opening them until she was right ontop of one of the raptors attacking her talons to rip out it's chest like she learned before*
Jennifer
*Faedon would be able to deflect the spikes this time by creating these after images they worked as a moving shield!*
*As Roku attacked one of the raptors it hissed at her as it ducked its head down and fired its spinal spikes directly at her. To follow up with this is jumped off the wall it was attached to onto her with its claws and talons outstretched as it would attempt to tear her apart.*
Antonia
*The flames the guards were fighting wouldn't be overcame but with 22 of them it would slowly began to open up in a pathway if they concentrated they're magic in a single location.

He ran forward panting heavily out of breathe his hands were shaking, some of the spikes hit the after images it would feel as if he was punched on his stomach his chest side bruises began to form across his back and sides black and blue spots as he ran into the section D going up the stairs as he called for his knight to follow and block the corridor.*
George
*As it fired it's spinal spikes it would cause her to flap her wings backwards with force so when it jumped off the wall it would be sent right back at it slamming it against it as she flew down and away towards the corridor behind the knight landing beside Faedon she could fly her so she would hover behind him as she took lead.*
Jesus
*The Apostles noticed that if they concentrated their black flames a pathway would open up and that's exactly what they did as they quickly hurried to catch up with Faedon and Roku.*
*Roku would send the raptor flying backward into the wall as it became impaled with its own spikes killing it on the spot. The other 5 raptors would have their spikes regrown again on their tails. They would jump onto the the ground again and pursue Faedon and the Roku.*
Antonia
*Was running across the bridge he ran down the stairs to fast he fell face first into 8 feet deep water he sank down and gasped taking in some water he swam to the surface coughing up water puking almost his whole body felt weak from all this running he was heaving and wheezing slight as he spoke* `"Help... Help!"` *He was out of breath and could barely stay above water with his forearms basically coated in his own blood.*
George
*Flew over the water and grabbed Faedon by his shoulders with her talons lifting him up and out and towards the staircase straight Infront of them setting him down at the top.*
Kelly
*The blood knight used it's shield to block the raptors and stabbed it's sword forward in simple motion as it didn't have much space it was to big for the small space so was it's shield so it kept stabbing forward at anything that came close blocking the pathway.*
Jennifer
*The head raptor called out to its pack as it backed away from the knight. It appeared to be studying, thinking if there is a way to get through. With its size blocking the corridor there was no way through it. 
The guards had finally made their way and caught up with the raptors. They saw the blood knight blocking the way so all 22 of them threw black fireballs toward it. Knowing the shield had to eventually give away at some point.*
*The staircase in front of them had yet another surprise a couple of reanimated corpses blocked their path as they mindlessly swung their swords at the pair.*
Antonia
*Was drenched head to toe in water panting he was on his knees on the top of the staircase catching his breath still panting heavily, he wiped his face his muscles in his arms legs were burning, his lungs were on fire, he stood up and rose his sword stepping forward he smacked the the sword to the left with his and turned his blade cutting the zombies head off, then parrying the next zombie and slicing it in half from the head down, he walked forward dodging a swing and swinging to the right cutting the zombies hand and head off, Roku following close behind this would slow them down as he took a left turn down a corridor he no longer had his torch the water put it out he throws the stick away uses his flame in his palm in a jog down the corridor repeating the process to any zombie in his path.*
George
*Followed behind him to make sure the knights or raptors were not coming in on them she blinked into the darkeness so far nothing they were safe from the back he was in a fight for survival with Roku*
Kelly
*The knight gave way after barrages of attacks as Faedon went further and further away the link severed and the blood knight fell apart swinging it's sword to the end.*
Jennifer
*Faedon would sluggishly kill the zombies with ease as they weren't very coordinated. They rolled down the stairs as he decapitated one and slashed at the others.*
*As soon as the knight stopped moving the raptors immediately resumed their chase. Faedon and Roku could hear the distant sound of their claws clicking across the floor with the 22 apostolate right behind them*
Antonia
*Stopped in the end of the corridor, took a left they had to get through the water just as he did, hopefully they couldn't swim well with all that armor, maybe the raptors but the soldiers, they would probably sink straight to the bottom unless they used some type of magic. He took a left into an open room panting it had spots where it was holes in the ground 15 feet deep so he would walk fast but carefully as he made a right sharp turn walking across the platform down the stairs but Roku picked him up again and began to fly him over the obstacles until they again found the exit, that lead down a path beside the river that was flowing through the ceiling was very low so she couldn't fly him over it without practically drowning him. She set him down they would take the sketchy path beside the river that was probably 20 feet deep and leads to who knows where*
Jesus
*Faedon's assumption would be correct they would sink to the bottom with that armor on. When they entered the room with the raptors they immediately headed backwards to find another way.*
Jennifer
*The raptors on the other hand had no such limitations they dove into the water and used their tails and legs to swim silently and quickly through the water like crocodiles. They took the same path he did but slowed down as they lost track of him because of the water in their nostrils. They would continue to walk forward until their smell returned. When they came across the sketchy path the raptors found the nearest gap in the river and leap onto it and began to climb their way down to the lower bridge in attempt to cut the pair off.*
Antonia
*Looked back as he saw the raptors jumping into the river, it was flowing down stream bad for him so the raptors would be able to swim much faster with the flow however they would have a hard time getting back up and could risk going all the way out the cave, he hugged the wall best he could he wasn't able to move to fast, as one missteps he would fly into the river.*
Jennifer
*As the raptors let the current carry them while remains close to the opposite wall of Faedon they would hiss and eject their spinal spikes that would be aimed just a ahead of the Roku and Faedon. They were predicting where they were next going to be at which would amplify their accuracy.*
Antonia
*Stood his ground and swung his sword deflected some of the spikes stopping as he heard the hiss the spikes would go where he was supposed to be but he stopped and only had to deal with a few, they made it to the edge of the bridge, but the raptors... He would wait on the other side of the bridge for a moment before sprinting on it to try and get across but they had beat them downstream he rose his sword Infront of him to prepare for an attack.*
George
*Spreads her wings as they make it to the bridge her sharp teeth and claws bared at the raptors as she crouched low her claws on her wings scrapping against the ground as she stood by faedons hip*
Jennifer
*Just as they had planned they stuck to the wall and then began climbing up using their claws as climbing tools soon the 5 raptors had made it on top of the bridge in front of Faedon and Roku. The spikes regrew right in front of their eyes as the raptors were fully prepared for battle.*
*The leading raptor barked and the two beside it flicked their tails sending more spikes toward Roku and Faedon. After doing so they hopped 4 feet backwards as the back two leapt onto the walls behind the raptors and flicked their own tails as another carefully timed wave of spikes were sent. The leader of the pack clicked its claws against the stone surface as it eyed the pair taking analyzing every bit of them.*
Antonia
*Blood began to bleed from his sword, as the spikes regrew he panted, using his sword style...'blood art flowing water' from the tip of the blade blood like water began to flow as he exhales deeply gritting his teeth his sword deflecting each spike away in quick manner but they kept coming with no chance of letting up, the sound of his sword hitting the spike with clings, and shinks, scrapping of metal he dashes forward deflecting all the spikes his hands guiding his blade to each one as Roku was behind him he lunged at the first one Infront of him his sword swinging towards its neck as he used blood dance to close the distant in a blink of an eye his sword was by its neck In a hard swinging motion as he screamed in pain, and anger as he felt his bones in his arms hurting ready to fracture and break from how much force he was exerting into this*
Jennifer
*The raptor would tip itself over allowing itself to fall to the ground as Faedon's sword would barely miss. It used its claws to spin itself around on floor and attempt to tail swipe its spikes into his left leg. The two raptors that were behind the first one would spring into action as soon as the head raptor fell down. They would sprint toward Faedon and leap into the air with their claws outstretched again ready to rip and tear.*
Antonia
*Watched it purposely fall his blood art allowed him to switch directions of his sword using the momentum he gathered for the swing, his sword would go down to the ground and to the side as he switched feet position, avoiding the tail swipe his sword once more heading to its neck it would find it's mark once more the blade closing in high speeds to the raptors neck on the floor*
George
*Rushed forward as the two raptors leaped towards Faedon she flew tor the side ramming them both into each other into the water the river stream lead out the cave she sent them in that direction watching as they could be dragged away by the stream once more she spread her wings as she looked at the two raptors on the ceiling and also watching the water to make sure they didn't come back*
Jennifer
*The raptor while a valiant and smart attempt on its part would fall victim to Faedon's blade decapitating it while it was on the ground.*
*When Roku rushed in at the two leaping raptors the ones on the ceiling were waiting for this opportunity. With their spikes regrown once again they would flick their tails sending another 2 waves of spikes toward Roku. So whenever she pushed the other two raptors over the bridged sending them to their watery graves she would already be attacked by the spikes. Immediately after they released their spikes they would hop off the wall and continue ahead of the dungeon.*
George
*She covered herself with her wind as the spikes from one of the raptors would hit her wing and she would simply cut it off she then began to fall and would be impaled by 5 of the other spikes this would incapacitate her once more as she would begin to see hallucinations again she would be out of the battle for 8 turns*
Antonia
*Pants as the head of the raptor was cut off he fell to his knees exhausted seeing the raptors flee into the dungeon there was only two of them... Better then all of them now he rose his head taking deep breaths until he heard a thud behind him of a body hitting the floor Roku? His head turned to see Roku on the floor as she sat up looking for him but she couldn't see him he moved over and gently picked her up with his arms carefully he may have said he was scared of her but he still cares and was worried about her he was in his knees as he held her to his chest with his sword on the ground he puts his cheek on her head panting* `"It's alright we'll get out of here, we will find them i promise im right here."` *He would say in between wheezes*
Jennifer
*The raptors did not think that their attack would land as it was merely a get away strategy. Once they heard the solid thud of Roku hitting the ground they slowly turned back around to examine the situation. Seeing their quarry on the ground and her complain on the brink of exhaustion the raptors saw an opportunity and slowly began their approach.*
*Once more Roku would see The Black Dragon as it stared at her from a black and red spire building. It would again extend its hand to her, beckoning her to take it.*
Antonia
*Heard the clicking of the raptors returning, he couldn't rest for long he picked up his sword and stood Infront of Roku if he wasn't making it out of this dungeon then neither were they the least he could do was defend Roku best he could* `"Come on... You reptilian pieces of leather why don't you just leave!"` *He screamed at them in desperation he looked back to Roku as he switched his feet position '**Blood dance form 3**' he stepped forward as an afterimage of himself came towards the one on the left another to the one on the right '**Blood slashes form 4**' if they jumped back the mirages blades would have a 3, foot extended range of a blood blade to slash at them each he sprinted forward, blood dance leaving an afterimage of blood behind him to the left then right he lunges at the raptor on the right as blood came leaking out his mouth from the strain his body was taking as his eyes were strained and almost blood shot red, his veins were popping across his arms neck legs, he swung his sword using blood slash himself to where the right raptor may be but leaving him open to the left raptor if it managed to dodge the mirage he sent towards it.*
George
*Felt herself being held her head against his chest, she felt him set her down gently soon after she was holding onto his kimono but he got her hands away, she saw the hallucination again, a black dragon a red spire building, as it extended its hand she simply stared at it blinking if she had emotions she might of had the curiosity to take it however she did not so she would stare at it waiting to be able to come back to normal she crawled on the ground before standing up the shards in his side and back she felt around pulled them out one by one blood pouring out as she stumbled about falling onto the ground again she crawled trying to find Faedon.*
Jennifer
*The 2 raptors knew he was on borrowed time as adrenaline probably already had taken over his veins. His attack seemed to them an act as desperation. So instead of hopping backwards they would both instead flick their tails to shoot out more spikes at Faedon and his after images.*
Antonia
*As they didn't hop backwards both would be struck with a slash of his blood mirage, glad they didn't know that his mirage could actually inflict damage as if he was there himself it would slice the left raptor chest open same for the right raptor, but he had also been swinging towards it his blade sank into the muscle and bone into the spine of the back of the raptor it was sloppy but it should be enough however more bruises formed across his abdomen, chest and arms from the spikes hitting the afterimage his sword got stuck on the raptors bone the force he used his left arm it fractured he screamed in agony as his hand slipped off and he hit the ground on his side, holding his bloodied left arms with his right hand crawling back panting as blood poured from his nose, he looked around for anything as he rose his right hand releasing s torrent of his blood flame towards the raptor that was still standing as it came like a wave like an ocean just like before with the guards hopefully it didn't shoot any spikes through the flames towards him*
Jennifer
*Faedon would slash both of the Raptors's chest open however, once he brought his blade down to the spine of the raptor he didn't account for the spinal spikes to still be in place. So once the blade connected with its spinal spikes sparks would fly and his sword arm would be pieced by the many spikes covering its back. The Raptor screamed in agony as the sword cut through its back but the spikes helped lessen the force behind it. So now Faedon's hand would be impaled by the spikes as the raptor in its last moments would frantically claw at him with its left hand.* 
*The right raptor with its chest agape could hardly do anything. Knowing it would die soon it would collapse to the floor and send out one final wave of spikes from its spine before succumbing to its wounds.*
Antonia
*Felt his sword arm be impaled with spikes as blood splattered across the ground he screamed in agony, as his sword arm was useless he used his left arm it was only a fracture in the bone it wasn't completely broken, or displaces he uses his hand to pull out the spikes ripping them out as blood poured out of the wound, he couldn't leave them in but his leg would get claws sank deep into his right thigh as he fell then his stomach the claws would scratch he tensed up as it died he layed on his back beside the raptor the spinal spikes of the last raptor would hit the wall as he was so low it wouldn't reach him staring into the ceiling his mouth coated in blood, blood leaking from his leg and stomach and both his arms but more so the arm that was pierced. He gasps weakly as he looked at the ceiling closing his eyes after a few moments then opening them as his chest rose and fell quickly, he groaned in pain pulling himself away from the raptor with his left arm he pushed himself up out of breath he pulled his sword out with the slicing of meat and bone he wiggled it until it slid out he would crawl with his one arm as his right arm dragged beside him he crawled over to roku using his legs to push him and his arm to pull himself he couldn't stand up from exhaustion once he made it to roku he panted softly, and dropped the sword pulling her into him the best he could he leaned up on the ledge of the bridge gasping for air practically as he held roku in his arms she held onto his kimono*
George
*Held onto his kimono she felt Faedon once more there he was, what was this...? Where was all this blood coming from...? She couldn't see she ran her hands across his arms and felt his blood she failed ai, she lowered her head she couldn't stop Faedon from using his arms, as faedon held her head close to him she sat up against him wrapping her wings around him as her wing regrew, she couldn't be harmed for long, and the spikes that pierced her the holes it left healed.*
Antonia
`"Roku Go find ai and ysildea, I'll be right here, I'll be fine he ordered her."` *As he felt his mind slipping away he shook his head panting lowering his head his kimono was dirty, burned bloodied scuffed up from his battle across half the dungeon he hoped could only hope ysildea and ai were alive. Unknown to him they were having the time of there lives where he had took a path that lead him to every, monster and powerful knight the dungeon had to offer he chuckled then wheezed in pain ysildea would have loved that fight.* `"Roku Go find ai and ysildea I am ordering you to make sure there ok."`
George
*Stood up and felt her hands were coated in blood her skin couldn't be seen anymore from how drenched they were, she stumbled around and followed the path of the bridge with her hands until she entered the corridor she fell down the flight of stairs but spread her wings to lighten the fall after her head thonked the stairs once her head started to bleed but it healed up! She walked forward and thonked into the wall again so she felt the walls and followed it, it went straight down she was hugging the side of the wall letting out little squeaks of her voice in the unique patter ai taught her it was her name but only squeaks came out she was heading to the corridor where the lich was at.*
Jennifer
*With all the raptors dead they were free for the moment. However like Roku, Faedon would be subjected to the Raptor's dark corruption by being impaled by one of its spikes. He would have 3 turns before it fully takes into effect.*
Antonia
*Took this time as Roku left to try and catch his breath which would hard as he had ran a marathon was cold and wet, and was bleeding bruised up all over. He lowered his head forward reaching for his sword his hand only got underneath it as he wheezes softly from time to time all the bruises on his chest made it hard to breathe.*

*Looks at the great black dragon with it's wings, he looked at the glowing third eye what was this creature...? Why did it beckon him so? Extending his hand out to it his left bloodied arm rose as he tried to grab the hand or dragon claw? He felt pain of corruption in his body and began to groan in agony and pant as his veins started turning black as it kept spreading through his body, it was like a poison, he couldn't see anything but the hallucination Infront of him gasping for air as it made him feel like he couldn't breathe getting only gasps of air in, he casted a spell for his holy knight as the knight formed from his blood magic* `"Pur... Heh.."` *He took a breath* `"Purify me.."` *He lowers his hand down as everything seemed to be fading again he felt his head falling it felt like he was falling but he was just sitting there*
Kelly
*The knight formed but it began to fade just as fast as it was summoned it rose his hand towards Faedon and its hand glowed a holy bright magic as it casted cleansing magic over him then turned to lumber around looking for things to attack*
Jennifer
*The vision would dissipate as the dragon still had its hand out beckoning him until his vision returned to normal.*
Antonia
*Thought the knights could come back he feared if they did he wouldn't survive he couldn't fight them, he dragged himself away off the bridge leaving a smear of blood following his body and clothes, as he lifts his left arm dragging himself he put his sword in his mouth and dragged himself along the sketchy path he took before until he made it back into a corner in the sketchy pathway that could be hard to see he rested his back on it and spit his sword out on his lap with a clatter of the steel on the floor lowering his head as he fell in and out of concupiscence*
Jennifer
*Fortunately for him he would have a chance to rest as him and Roku had killed the largest threat in the dungeon... Thus far.*
George
*Came flying back into the dungeon down the spiral and corridor she wasn't in a hurry or anything, she was just naturally fast she had no emotions to be in any hurry, she flew through the halls quietly sticking to the ceiling as she flew across the bridge Faedon wasn't there? She followed the blood trail until she found him she landed beside him changing back to her normal form she stood there and blinked at him, not helping him or anything she needed an order to do anything, so she would wait standing in faedons blood that was coming out of his arm. Finishing the task of making sure ysildea and ai was alright she came back to faedon for further orders.*
Jennifer
*Screaming could be heard deep within the dungeon. Something more terrible than the raptors and the undead now roam the halls. The Noble sought power and yet something else has now emerged.*
George
*Continued to look at faedon standing there motionless, she decided she would no longer try and explain anything it was very ineffective and provoked a reaction out of ai of fustration it wasn't the first time so she from this point on will just stare and take orders.*
Antonia
*Woke up shaking his head he looked at his right arm it had shards through them he looked at his left arm it was hurting but could still move it he slid off his kimono having some strength return and time to rest he used his sword to cut the bottom portion of his kimono into a long strip of cloth and began to crudely wrap his right arms tightly tying it with his mouth, he looked at Roku* `"Help wrap my other arm."` *He rose his arm as she looked at it she left and came back with wooden shards from a broken down door and untied his left hands bandages using the wood as a splint to support his forearm under the bandages he ordered her to do the other arm the same the splint didn't go above his elbow so he could still swing his sword he slowly stood up panting grabbing his sword with his right arm it was weak but it could still hold his sword he began to walk across the sketchy path and across the bridge into the dungeons corridors*
Jennifer
*An unholy roar would be heard as the sound of large footsteps would echo throughout the dungeon walls.*
Antonia
*Walked with a slight wince as the claws that dug into his right thigh caused pain, he walked until he saw a room to the left he turned left into the room limping inside seeing the coffin and it's lid was off just beyond it a corridor that lead into a bigger room with piles of corpses in the way to the far right a staircase leading into the sewers his face began to turn red with anger, why did they go down here and not tell him only wait send a bird and the bird to tell him they fell in a damn hole. He was pissed his rage began to build up inside him as his face kept a red color he was also worried hoping they were ok but they needed to have better communication. They left him with a mute his own servant they know who couldn't talk or explain anything to him he also didn't know if she completed her mission he could only assume so since she was back but it was no garuntee, he couldn't ask her could he she wouldn't reply. Hearing the loud roar he stopped in his tracks and began to walk down the smaller corridor and into the larger room he making it down the stairs through the corpses he rose his sword inside this wide space whatever was coming he would want to fight it in a place that was open and wide.*
George
*Simply followed him deeper into the dungeon blinking at him as she stood beside him quietly as he rose his sword preparing for it the roar happened she covered her sensitive ears in pain.*
Gertha
*A dark cloud of darkness filled the room making the air cold. Two crimson eyes stared in front of Faedon, and then quickly as they appeared they vanished. A dark laughter echoed throughout the room, however from where is unknown to them. They can neither see or sense this monster's presence. Suddenly a black and red beam shoots from out of the darkness in the pair's blind spot.*
Antonia
*Gritting his teeth he crouched in a fighting position as his blood aura began to release all around the room wildly, as he heard laughter he couldn't point out where it was coming from but the moment the red bean touched his aura '**Blood dance**' he jumped away kicking leaving a blood mirage in his place he pushed Roku away and spoke* `"Fight with me Roku! Protect me when you can."` *Blood began to swirl around the him for a dozen feet in a circle around him '**Blood art flowing water**' from the tip of his blade blood water length appeared swirling around the room staying for 10 seconds before disappearing he made sure to keep his feet always on the ground to use blood dance as his get away strategy his breathing increases as fear began to flood in his body looking around trying to find it he jumped back to the center of the room sliding on the ground*
George
*Was pushed away and grew out her claws and teeth and snout as she flew into the air in the middle of the room to observe what Faedon couldn't possibly see the dark cloud the filled the room wouldn't obscure her vision this would be as clear as day but to faedon it wouldn't be she flew lower just above Faedon looking to see if she can see the dark creature.*
Gertha
*She would gaze upon a monstrous demon made out of shadow and fire. The creature met her gaze.*
"Sooo you can see me little demon. A shame that I have to dispatch of you quickly."
*The demon would raise its arm and shoot out another dark beam in Roku's direction.*
George
*Spread her wings wide after folding he left wing and diving opening them she flapped her wings violently using her magic for once of wind to disperse all the dark clouds give them a fighting chance but she would need to constantly use wind magic so Faedon could see. He heard it's voice and blinked at it ready to stay moving left to right and dodge it, in her palm she formed her spear and armor around her body she was a valkyrie after all it glowed a bright purple color*
Antonia
*Upon seeing the wind blow away the dark mist and clouds he could see the demon finally, he used his '**Blood dance**' closed the distance moving quickly in a straight line before going right left center building momentum, jumping towards the demon his blades blood water art grew bigger as he used his other art '**Blood dance art from 4**' combine with '**Blood slashes**' holding his breath slightly as this caused strain on all his muscles combining three arts when his body was in this state, he swung his sword to send an after image and the after images swung towards the beast with 3 foot extension on the blade as with the blood water art it granted the mirage a little more autonomy to track the beasts body and swing it's sword tracking it.

If it missed he would slash again towards the beast sending another mirage, he had to be careful he had only 5, mirages per 4 turns he kicked off the ground and jumped back ready to attack again.*
Gertha
*The demon had a wicked grin on its face at this futile effort. As beneath it was pure shadow and just as quickly as the wind made the clouds vanish they would cover the room again. It would use its wings to fly to the side of the Roku making Faedon miss completely as Faedon couldn't see where he was hitting anymore. And then suddenly it dived baiting out an attack before grabbing her by the throat and plunging her into the ceiling before throwing her at Faedon.*
Jennifer
*After a great battle of attrition Faedon and Roku would come out victorious. After defeating the demon Faedon would earn a new blade made from the essence of the demon. It would be covered in shadow and flame much like from its origin.*
Antonia
*Had defeated the monster and sighed as he was panting heavily, Roku he had to send her back to the spectral realm so he was there alone, with his old sword in shattered pieces practically he slowly fell to his knees and picked up the knee blade it was shadow and flame, much like the blood flame he leaves his sword in the monsters neck and grabs the new one placing it on his side and wrapping around his waist he rose his head up to the ceiling to think the raptors were harder was there something in here hiding... Lurking... Watching him...?*
Jennifer
*Faedon and Roku would hear armored footsteps coming from the stair in front of them which would be their exit out of the dungeon and back into the land above. A figure covered in hooded white robes entered the open room with them.*
