After several hours of flying over the waters, Anthimus suddenly began to sense the powers of Death beginning to grow.  Not just humans and animals, but the very killing of mother nature as an intense heat surged through his body.  While he knew that sensations like this were though uncommon, still familiar, he couldn't help but notice something different on what he could sense.  The feeling was almost similar to what he felt after having his dream.  Something was telling him that this was not a coincidence, and that it was something worth observing.  Quickly, he altered his course and headed north over to the European shores, increasing his speed to the point of breaking the sound barrier in order to get there fast.<br/><br/>Within an hour, Anthimus soon arrived at the island of Crete.  The first thing he saw was a port village engulfed in chaos and flames.  People frantically running around either fleeing for their lives or pillaging and plundering the innocent people.  Anthimus was a bit overwhelmed at the sensation of so much death happening.  The only other time he felt like this was when he killed the villagers back in his homeland.<br/><br/>Placing his hood over his head, Anthimus made his landing right at the village square and retracted his wings back inside him.  The people were in so much of a frenzy they didn't even notice him landing.  Calmly, he began to walk in the opposite direction the scared villagers were running until he encountered about 7 of the pirates that were chasing them.  Without even a single word, one of the pirates charged right at him with his sword raised.  As he came slashing down, Anthimus easily dodged his blade and countered with a back kick right into his back, causing the pirate to fly several feet into the air.<br/><br/>The other pirates were a bit shocked to see what happened, but showed no signs of falling back as the began to surround Anthimus.  Showing no signs of concern or fear, Anthimus calmly stood his ground as the pirates started coming after him.  With every strike they came at him, he easily blocked and dodged their attacks and quickly countering them.  With one of the attacks, Anthimus managed to even grab one of the pirates and throw him right at 2 others.  The fight looked more like Anthimus was just toying with the pirates as the all kept on failing on landing even a single strike at him.<br/><br/>Moments later, with only 2 of the 7 pirates still standing, another pirate suddenly leaped into the battle.  He hulk of a man standing well over 7 feet tall and ripped from head to toe.  He came leaping right at Anthimus using an anchor as a blunt axe.  As the weapon was about to make impact, Anthimus raised his hand as it quickly reverted to its dragon form and caught the anchor right in midair, the impact causing the ground beneath Anthimus to cave in a bit and send a shock wave that spread across the square.  The massive pirate was literally stunned to see that his brute strength was being held back by a figure only 1/3 his size.  Before he could even retract, Anthimus counted with a Dragon Claw Palm strike with his free hand.  The the impact was so great, it was heard like a loud gunshot, sending the pirate flaying to the ground with a large bruise forming on his stomach as he coughed up a large amount of blood.  As Anthimus turned to look at the other pirates, the quickly dropped their swords and ran as fast as they could from him, screaming and calling Anthimus a Demon.<br/><br/><strong>&lt;Attn.
