"Come on, get it started. You know how to do that at least, just shout "Engage!" " Lucy said from a distance. I could barely see the four foot creature because my vision was flowing with red. I followed her instruction and when I did my ragged uniform was covered in a bright light and when the light faded away and I was covered from the shoulders down in menacing, ebony armour. The wand I got transformed into a curved staff holding a skull where there was an orb.
Lucy's eyes popped out as she looked in astonishment at my armour, she was wearing a blue, sleek cloak with two short axes marked in strange characters held tightly in her hands.
Instantly, she declared that she would use up one of her Derare links, Calming Steady Clash. Axes spinning like wheels cutting through just as easily as they would go through my skin flew towards me. Luckily enough, I dodged most but really felt the pain when one lodged itself into my breastplate. Weird, I didn't feel anything. This thing is legit
In a desparate attempt to retaliate I pointed my new skull staff at Lucy and tried to fire. Think, think, how do we do this? Humiliation filled me as I saw Lucy point and laugh and the skull started to shake around. Its eyes glowed red like a light was inside of it. My thoughts were overun by the gradually loudening whispers of another voice.
Use it, my grand power. Show them you are the chosen.
Growing impatient, Lucy started a sprint towards me and I tried to run but as I turned around the staff yanked me around to face Lucy.
Come on, now. They will not think you are weak for all of time. Now, establish a link.
How exactly?
The voice stopped but I heard the last thing that it said. Lucy was close now. I shouted that I would use a link and said what it did before leaving, Destroyer's Paradise.
A smoke came from the skull. It covered the surroundings and from the smoke two blue lights appeared. The lights moved around with a heavy exhale and with a deafening screech. Lucy looked at me before being taken by the eyes and disappearing into the smoke. Her screams echoed. What have I done? Searching around for her I saw nothing but the axe in my armour faded away. How do you stop this thing, I thought and tried anything I could. Shouting all sorts of variations to the fight starting phrase but nothing worked.
It will not work. Worry yourself not of weak creatures but be proud, you have started your journey of walking with a true link to the Derare. This was only a taste of how powerful you can be. If you really want to stop the fight, then say "Link Break" but I do not see why you would not want to relish in your victory.
Shut up! I don't know what you are but I know I want nothing to do with you. Link Break. The armour disappeared and still, Lucy was nowhere to be found.
Feeling lost, bored with it all or like a failure? Everyone's the hero of their own story and when heroes think like that, we all know who visits them. Is that how things are going to work with our resident failure, Don Rose? I mean heck, has anything worked in his adult life?
