deepest reaches of hell

[mole]

~Mole returned to the cave, the went to find the man who went to face Cygon~

[Demon]

-Demon went past Mole and took off into the air above his head-

"If you wish to join me you had better hurry for I am not going to wait"

-He started flying away after this comment not expecting Mole to follow-

[mole]

~Mole halted in midair, looked back at the cave, and after assuring himself they would be okay, sped after the man~

*I have a feeling this man is going to need all of the help he can get!*

"Hold on!" Said Mole once he had caught up with the man

"Where exactally is this Cygon?"

[Demon]

*Demon kept at his speed*

"He is less than a days journey from here in the direction we are currently traveling, he dwells in a giant castle which makes him easy to find, in fact you can see the tip of one of his towers from here"

*He points out into the distane at a small shape barely n view*

"That tower is 5 hours away"

[mole]

"Oh, I see." Said Mole, keeping up with Demon quite easily

"But I have a way we can reach it faster, and be able to conserve our own energy.Are you up for it?"

~Mole continued to fly in the direction of the tower~

[Demon]

"Sure, but this better not be a trick"

*He continued to fly towards the tower*

[mole]

"you have my word, and with it the word of the High Preist of the Wind, Gro'oen." said Mole

"Now if you will wait here for just a moment, I need you ot put this amulet around your neck. Feel free to examine it all you wish, for it is not cursed. It will not harm or kill you, it is going to save your life." Mole explained.

~Mole removed from his robes an ordinary ocarina and started to play a song that was amazingly depressing. He then replaced the ocarina in his robes, and took out a goats bladder he carried water in, poured it toward the ground, but caught the droppletts in a sphere of swirling air, brought them up level with his eyes, and arranged them so they formed a rune in the air. While he was using his telekenesis to do this, he was meditating~

::Huge gust of wind, and a brilliant light::

~A giant falcon came to Mole's side~

"Hello old friend," said Mole patting the Falcon's beak, which appeared to be made of smoke, just like the rest of the birds body.

~He turned his back to the falcon and faced Demon~

"This is my oldest and most trusted friend and companion, Dom. He is an entity given to me as a guardian at birth by the high priest of the wind, Gro'oen." Said Mole, looking off into the night as if he were reminiscing.

~Mole brought his attention back to the present situation~

"He appears gentle, and harmless, but only because I requested it of him. If I hadn't played the song you heard before I asked him to become visible via the rune I assembled, he would have torn you to shreds." Mole casually explained, looking at the bird fondly, "Now, since you have never been able to see him, and he has been with me since I arrived, he is quite shy. As you can see, he is made from what appears as smoke, and with out that amulet you would phase right through him. But the advantage to all of this is that, though I am able to fly faster than the mightiest winds blow, he is faster than either you or I. So, if you want to take Dom, put the amulet around your neck and sit on his back, and we can go." Mole explained, winded after the long speech he made, which he thought must be painful if it ever gets written down and read.

~Mole flew onto Dom's back and sat there, looking at Demon, waiting for his decision~

[Demon]

Demon eyed the amulet and then put it on

"This bird seems well enough"

He than alighted on the falcon's back letting his wings sink back into his body

"Let us go then"

[YungGun]

~Yung Gun walked in front of Cygon and bowed~

"I have done what you asked, now you must return the favor"

Cygon laughed, "Favor!? Who said anything about a favor?"

Yung Gun started to get angry, "You said if i had slowed down those travelers you would bring my parents back to life.

Cygon laughed once again, "You stupid little elf. I said I might help you with your pety needs. I never intended for you to make it back alive."

~Yung Gun looked shocked~

Cygon continued, "You truely are stupid. How could possible believe i would help you with such a stupid request..............I grow tired of your complaining. Guards take him away from me!"

~6 orcs came and dragged Yung Gun out. Yung Gun looked down at the floor~

As Yung Gun was taken out, he said one more thing to Cygon, "I will be back and I will kill you. I will be the last face you see"

[mole]

~Mole nodded to Demon, signaling he should hold tight~

"Nerconeren" Said Mole to Dom in Elfish

~The great falcon lunged forward at a great pace~

<Mole aligned his thoughts with the man riding behind him, sneding him a message telopathically>

*DOn't worry, it is me. We are going to stop about a mile short of our target to rest and prepare, and so you can fill me in a bit on what Cygon has to do with anything*

~Mole turned his head so the man was in his range of veiw, nodded once more, and then started speaking to the great bird in old world elfish~

[Raistlin]

~ In Cygon's tower six orcs are dragging YungGun to the dungeons. They stop walking as they hear odd words being muttered in the darkness.~

"kair tangus miopiar..."

~ A hand appears in the darkness lit by fire. Balls of fire. One on each finger. The balls of fire jump out at the orcs setting the ablaze. The last orc looks at his fallen bretheren whom are now just piles of ash. ~

"I kill you now! Dragon give me reward for mage head."

"kalith karan, tobanis-kar..."

~ A flash of light in the shape of an arrow flys from the shadows. It impales the orc to the wall in the middle of his chest. Writhing in pain it slowly begins to shrivel and turn to ash. In the light of the spells Raistlin became visible to the captive. Raistlin speeks to YungGun as if he didn't matter to him. ~

"You have your life now use it against Cygon if you must, but don't be foolish and get yourself killed quickly. Find high ground. I'm sure you must be quite a shot with that bow. The others should be around by morning, if it could be called a morning in this awfull place. Wait for them to arrive and aid them. I'll be ready to make my move when the time comes. Till then be careful. Don't get caught."

~ Raistlin moves back into the shadows and begins to walk away. ~

[YungGun]

~Yung Gun was beaten up pretty badly. He was bleeding and had wounds all over over.~

~He looked at the man as he walked away~

*No good man. I didnt need your help. I could have..........*

~Yung Gun falls on his knees and he spits out blood.~

*I need to hide..........*

~Yung Gun takes out a healing potion and drinks it.~

*That should help me make it through the night*

~Yung Gun holds his stomach and quickly tries to find to place to hide and rest~

[mole]

~Mole directed the falcon to the ground short of their intended target~

"i don't want them to know we are here" Mole explained to Demon

~He reached for the medallion from Demon~

"What is our plan of attack? What defenses do you know of they are using?"

[Raistlin]

((I don't want to see this one die. I like it and I wanna try to finish it. I hope the rest of you that had a part in this one (Demon, Mole and YG) feel the same way. We just need to fight the dragon, Cygon, then get outta hell. After that we can give each of our characters a The End for this story.))

~As Raistlin continues down the dark corridors he keeps seeing orcs walking through their routs as guards. Each time Raistlin would fire off a fireball here, holy bolt there, lightning and light arrows to clear out the small defenses that guard the lair.~

*This should give the others easy enough access soon enough. Any others that show up to reinforce the area will be delt with accordingly.*

~Stepping back into the shadows he moved close to Cygon's chambers. All the while keep his thoughts in check as to not be heard telepathically.~

[AxeHappyLoser]

(I kinda liked the fact that the very last post was on my birthday... But you had to go and ruin it, lol... It's already dead Raistlin... If you want it to end... Start it over so I can take part in it.)
