ANYWAY I WILL BE LEAVING FOR A YEAR OR SO, SO I WILL BE TRYING TO PUMP OUT MORE CHAPTERS B4 I LEAVE. -SHAWN- ANGEL WINGS 39 "Did one you do that?" I asked Forming a dark opening over our heads. And down in front of us dropped a women being supported by wings. But not that of and Angel or bird but of a dragon fly. She was a wonder in her self. She shoot about 5'8" but 6' in her battle glaives her wings like I said before were like a dragonfly's and all four of them shined in the sun capturing and turning it into a rainbow inside the thin but sturdy membranes. She wore a yellow and green armor but with the skin it showed seemed to be ineffective. If one were to count the were five separate pieces. Her 2 arm guards that went from the hands to the end of her forearms, her two battle glaives and her 1 hip armor that hung protecting her sides. But it left her mid-section and chest open. Not that Remy or Rajin minded I could see them messing there pants right there. She was in fact very beautiful her skin was a slight bronze and her face looked like that of a model not one of those sickly chicks but a healthy one that didn't take shit, but she still smiled. And her hair was amazing, like her wings it captured light and showed like a rainbow it fit her perfectly. The only thing that could make her seem not as helpless was the 7 ft dual edge double bladed battle scythe that looked as deadly as it looked sharp. She looked like living art that you would name, "heavens hope, or deadly beauty" She land gracefully and the portal shrink but didn't close. The others seem totally entranced by her and I to was at a lost. That is when the living art spoke. "I am so glad to see you all safe." "You-you know us?" Remy half squawked out. "Yes Remy I know you well." "But who are you?" I asked. "I am the lady Grace." Her name jus seemed to personify her. "How do you know us." Jelani asked getting into his questioning mode. "There is much for us to talk about but not a whole lot of time." She smiled a dazzling smile. Holding her spear above her head it disappeared. "Shall we talk for a bit." She requested. The house upstairs was a total mess so I had the computer bring up a simple park with some comfortable chairs. Remy had run to get some tea. As she sat us all down. "Here you go." Remy poured her a cup of tea. She smiled thankfully and held it in both her hand in her lap as she sat across from us. "Now where to begin?" "How about who are you and why are you here?" "Jelani!!" I hissed. That just sounded downright rude. "No it's ok Shane, she cover it's in his nature to be inquisitive, cautions and protective. That are so of the roles of a good leader. I am Grace of the dying realm of Ashtar." "Dying?" "Yes It was not always as it is now." She had waved her hand and the scenery had changed into a beautiful land. "It was once known as `the age of wonders' yet the are barely words to describe how wondrous it truly was. We looked over head and we could see a bunch of people flying with wings like Graces and some of butterflies. "There were those who wrote tales of it in tales that are still remembered. Grimm. White. Barrie. Countless others whose names have been washed away with time. But the stories.... The magic... stayed. Pan, Tink, Merlin and all the rest still flicker like candles waiting by the window for that time to return. The scenery changed to a hill side that on top stood a castle You could see lights dancing in the clouds. A man conjured what looked like a mix of Jelanis spark and my aqua ball. It was a white ball of light that arched out like lightning but it flowed smoother like water. People gather around him to see. A young man tried to copy and after a few tries managed a smaller version as his mother looked on with pride. Another winged man talked with a white dragon as if it was his pet and best friend. It looked like a wondrous place. "Just as there were those who bathed in the light of the time....." Her eyes hardened and the scene changed yet again. The sky was that of a sunset and you could see shadowy forms flying towards us. "....There were those who coveted the power and desired to make it their own. Some say the very taste of air began to change. What had been sweet, was now acrid and bitter." The Shadow figures came into closer and it was dragons that were saddled up with armored men on their backs they looked so fearsome. We floated closer to the dragon horde and surrounded one in particular. "His name was Rainier. He took his armies and infected the innocence of the dragons. It took so little to destroy so much....." They hover like waiting vultures and they you could see a mass of people flying from them glowing shimmering, streaming, glowing, pulsing or just armed to the tooth. "We would not go without a fight." Grace her self charged on to Rainier and battled him alone. She held her ground very well. "The battle raged on." She continued to narrorate. " "Some marked it by the blood, some by those who fell. I only say it as a beginning... and an end." The ground had become littered with bodies, wings, dragon and weapons. "The end of all there ever was... and for some all that ever would be." The scene before us showed the man who conjured the aqua spark earlier and now his spark was the size of the small boys, he seemed at a lost like that was all he could muster. The man grieved over the white dragons body and Grace shed a tear. "In the aftermath those who survived blamed those who had once been their inspiration. Things of magic slowly faded and died until there was nothing." The very world around us seemed to fade into crystal dust into a dark void. "There are those who say we can rekindle the age of wonder. That magic cannot be ever truly die but lays dormant...waiting...waiting for a time when there are those who believe in it again and see the good it can bring to the world and the universe. I am here to make sure that chance is allowed." Then the room went back to the basic park. Grace had dried her tears and looked at us like we were her hope."So what bring you to us?" I asked wanting to help her but failing to see how we could save a whole universe. "She must be Grace Whitestar ....." "Who!?" "You guys may not remember, cause your younger than us but she is a very good friend of moms." "Yeah I remember her now but very faintly. Last I remember Jelani and I were standing in front of you and mama." "Yeah after that is goes blank." "But there has to be more ....." Remy looked as if he was searching his mind but couldn't find anything else. "It won't do you any good, our mother and I had to block parts of your memory to protect you." But how and why and why do I remember you. Well how is easy a simple spell help erase me but somehow your were protected if you remembered my name. Why....well it's the reason you are here. It would be best if I unlocked your memories 1st it might help you understand. From her gauntlet on her arm 4 colored stones arose and towards us. There was a flash and next thing I knew the room had gotten dark and it was very cold. Every part of my body felt cool as Ice but it wasn't uncomfortable, it was normal. I was remembering a lot more as well, but that had to wait cause there was a problem. (End Chapter) LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK STEELO64@MSN.COM
