((Tyr wishes to leave the group, but don't worry I have made arrangements for his class to be taken care of.  He has given me permission to do a scene for Tyr to remove him from active duty in the school, after which things will be returned to normal.  Just need to sort out Jai's inner demons after that, but that should proceed much quicker.  This post is a tribute to Shadow Walker's character Tyr in response to how I think he would have wanted things to go.))<br/><br/>Tyr looked towards Valarith as she approached.<br/>"So...the guest of honour is finally here!"  He laughed aloud.  "Your student's really are quite foolish, especially that Caludar...though you are the biggest fool of all Valarinth, you accept idiots and troublemakers into your school all the time...I mean, what do you expect them to do when they finally graduate from your school?"<br/><br/>Valarinth seems a bit taken aback as Tyr denounces her in such a way.  It was as if he was making her out to be the cause of all this, but Valarinth knew better...she could feel his evil and dark cynicism in his emotions, but she felt angered enough by his words to respond rather harshly.<br/>"Who are you to judge me?"  She demanded.  "A teachers job is to teach students and that is what my school is all about.  I am not here to tell people how to live their lives and I don't claim to make up the laws.  Those with evil intentions will eventually be surpassed by their better natured counterparts...that is the way this world works.  The only thing I care about is protecting my students and teaching them about transmutation magic.  What they choose to do with that magic afterwards is their own decision with its own consequences."<br/><br/>"So what you're saying is you don't hold yourself responsible for teaching those whom are evil how to turn innocent people inside out or make them into a lifeless item to be used for all eternity while having to experience every little sensation it does without a say in whether they want it or even the ability to cry out for help.  It really does bring out a whole new level of torture.  Take poor Jai here for instance...the souls of two demons have been transmuted to fuse with his own soul, one was torn away by me...the other, well...let's just say I have plans for it."  Tyr chuckled to himself in a very dark voice.<br/><br/>"Damn you!"  Valarinth yelled, forming her dragon wings into vibrant colours as they formed a huge pair of dragon shaped wings that shimmered with the light of a faeries power.  She growled fiercely as her power built and she leapt at him, her teeth and claws becoming more dragon like as her body became a shimmering myriad of coloured scales.<br/><br/>Tyr laughed as his entire body erupted with black fire that surged through Valarinth as she attacked him, knocking her away from him as the scales that had touched him were now blackened and bubbling as dark smoke steamed away from them.  "How do you like my power now Valarinth...still think you can put a stop to me?"  He laughed as he summoned a legion of undead to form up around Valarinth.  "You really are the worst kind of person Val...you make all these high and mighty claims to protect your students, but when someone more skilled and powerful comes along, you're as weak and helpless as a mere insect beneath my claws tainted with black fire."  He then licked his lips with a smile as he flew towards her at intense speed.<br/><br/>Valarinth tried to move from the ground, but it was too little too late to realise the undead had fused into her clawed feet and hands routing her to the ground as Tyr thrust his hand into her body pulling out Reiko and Tamyshia from within her, whom were luckily both still under the protection spell that Valarinth had cast as the black fire flared up around them.  "No...leave them, ack..."  She spluttered coughing up some blood as her scales bubbled and smoked around the wounded area.<br/><br/>"Well, well...what do we have here?  Your daughter and one of her friends?"  He laughed, "Well not that it matters anyway...because once I destroy you, all of your pathetic little students will be food for Jai anyways."<br/>Tamyshia was now clutching Reiko's finger tightly as she trembled with absolute terror...everyone in the area could hear her voice as she closed her eyes with intense thought's in her mind saying 'Let us go!' over and over again very quickly.  Tyr shook his head a little as he growled a little, struggling against the will of his arm that was now slowly lowering the two girls towards the ground where he placed them down gently atop one of the nearby fields of grass that was instantly evaporated into smoke from the black fire.  "Damn it!  What kind of power is this?"  He yelled with pure rage.  "Well, it wont matter if I just crush them underfoot now, will it?  I doubt even that pathetic protection spell of yours will keep them safe this time."  He roared lifting his foot above them and bringing it down towards them.<br/><br/>"No!"  Valarinth roared as she ripped herself free from the ground and tackled Tyr, absorbing all the undead minions into her body as she used them to regenerate her body tissue, charging shoulder first into Tyr, beating her wings back as she thrust herself into him and screaming in agony as she felt the black flames singing the entire front of her body.<br/><br/>"Jai, take care of the students...make sure they don't come back."  Tyr maliciously called out as he charged up a deep breath of dark fire and expelled it towards Valarinth making her scales on her draconic face bubble and burn as she came close to passing out.  At this point Valarinth glowed brightly and expelled a bright shimmering flame back at Tyr as she fused her body around his and begun to compress him despite the immense pain it was causing.  The flames in the middle were forming a brilliant white light surrounded by black and shimmering auras as it expanded between them and immersed both of them.<br/>"You cannot harm your better."  Tyr growled as their fiery breaths exploded against each other.<br/>"Who said you were my better?"  Valarinth angrily growled back as she forced the shimmering light around his dark aura until all that was left of Try was a small orb of dark energy surrounded by a shimmering bright light.  She then lifted it up in one hand and pushed it inside her mouth, swallowing it with a deep resounding gulp as she collapsed against the ground.<br/><br/>"I can't protect them any more than I have already."  She muttered as she shrunk back down into her original form and pushed the school out of her body and back to it's original location with the book locked back within the depths of the library's most hidden and secret area.  'I have no energy left to protect you.'  She telepathically told all of her students and teachers as she lay on the ground in immense pain clutching at her wounded stomach.  'Please escape from Jai before the demon within him devours everything.'  With that last message passed into the minds of everyone, Valarinth finally collapsed into unconsciousness.
