In the void Dark had felt a change. The moment hisndkeletal hand was placed on the alter he could feel an influx of essence pouring towards him. Not just any essence, but pure vampiric essence. The blood red essence hungrily caught him, as if he was the prey and it his predator.
Despite being hunted Dark felt no fear. What was vampiric essence, other than the worlds energy conforming to his needs. The hungry essence was simply looking for its master, and Dark eagerly awaited it. He could vaguely sense the essence beating against the seemingly dead portal.
A smile crypt across his face as he watched the scene play out before him. His attention divided between the incoming essence and the girls.
=======================================
Ash was panting as she stared at the ever advancing undead Knight. Her threads laid uselessly on the ground. They had been severed by the rapid attacks of Knights spear. Her energy was almost exhausted, but a look of determination was planted across her face.
Next to her Lily had a similar look on her face, countless blades had fallen to the ground between her and Brutus. His large greatsword now had several small cracks and chips. She had not given up, as she continually shot out the blades towards her prey. Each attack was quick and direct, and yet was blocked easily by the one armed undead.
=======================================
Dark did not have time to pay attention to what was happening to the girls, the surging vampiric essence was pounding on the gate before him. He could feel the abundance of energy waiting on the other side, taunting him. Unconsciously he activated bloodlust, his soul moving of it's own accord as it began to relentlessly attack the gate.
His attacks were not physical, he did not have a physical body. Rather he attacked with the only method he had in the void. He used his spiritual sense to bombard the gate. His attacks were not random, rather they were precise, as they struck the same spot over and over again.
On the the other side of the gate the essence grew excited as they sensed their target. Their attacks likewise grew more fervent. Seconds passed as they combined attacks from both sides repeatedly struck the gate. A small pin sized hole was eventually formed.
The blood red essence excitedly pushed itself through the hole. The turrent of essence flooded through the gate, forcing the tiny whole to widen as a seemingly endless amount of vampiric essence tore through. The essence locked onto its target once it arrived on the other side of the gate. Dark's soul soon became full as the flood of essence latched on to his soul. He could feel his empty shell gradually regaining its strength.
A smile filled his face as his body absorbed the essence. He did not hesitate to summon Blood Drinker the moment he could. The vampiric sword immuninated the area with a blood red light. The gate before him finally was revealed to him.
The gate was in the shape of a skull, the opening itself was the skulls mouth. while they eyes above it shone with a powerful dark aura. The aura only now could be felt by Dark. His eyes shone with rage as realization dawned on him.
Blood Drinker began striking relentlessly at the gate, small tears forming as the constant flow of vampiric essence entered Dark's body, strengthening his blade. The gate stood no chance against a physical weapon, soon falling before the might of Blooddrinker. Light and the putrid scent of the swamp poured towards Dark as he stepped through the gate.
=======================================
The girls did not notice anything going on behind them. They did not notice the Skeletal hand that began to float in the air. They did not notice as the blood and core of the giant snake were absorbed into the hand. They did not notice as a familiar body began to faze into existence behind them.
The girls did not notice any of this, But the pair of undead did. Their eyes opened wide in astonishment as a familiar body took its first steps. Their bodies froze in place as their bodies were bound in rings of blood red vampiric essence. Their eyes shone with fear as a sword came flying towards them, decapitating Brutus with a single strike.
Only now did the girls notice something strange, they both turned around in astonishment as the body of the spider king appeared before them. His bloody sword in his right hand, as his left, skeletal hand was extended outwards. The fingers slowly making a fist, causing the bindings on the two undead to tighten. His cold voice reached all four of their ears. "Tell your mistress we need to talk."
