7 wrath and dreams
I awake to the smell of brimstone and fire the sounds of conflict in the distance screams of agony and rage as I stir I notice I'm no longer within well wherever I was.....
It's hard to remember what was I doing?
as I look to my surroundings I see I'm standing upon a cliff standing above a great plane looking out I could see a great battle taking place.
Thousands if not more clashing and what I can only describe as a scene from ancient times men and women with shields and armor clashing at the front archers in the rear and cavalry swooping the flanks the only difference is I could see magic flying through the air it's great explosions could be seen.
Thunder, fire, water, and Earth being cast at one another causing great turmoil among the ranks it's pure chaos the destruction unimaginable but what strikes me as odd is that I can see a hint of color not belonging to those elements, upon one side I could see that the magic has a gold color to it, where the other has a almost black with a deep red to it.
I do not know who is fighting who or why does I look upon the scene I feel a deep sadness and rage well within me I do not know why, single tear rolls down my cheek.
I take another look at my surroundings and to my surprise a man standing 10 ft from me with a child in his arms I do not know where he came from, I swore he wasn't there before.
He wore a set of crimson armor in a fashion similar to the Greeks of ancient times with a large fur cape dawned upon his back he had crimson red hair that looked as if it was on fire but what struck me as odd as I couldn't see his face it seemed to be a blur.
he stood there as if he was waiting silent is the grave the child in his arms.
He turned and I followed his gaze standing there was a woman dressed in black, a cloak over her face she speaks in a language I cannot understand but seems familiar all the same I can't place it no matter how hard I try.
He approaches the woman and places the infant in her arms then gently caresses the baby's cheek before turning to the cliff and with a mighty leap head towards the battlefield.
I turned to look at the woman dressed in black as she stands there gazing upon the cliff and then she speaks and I understood every word.
"goodbye my love".
---------------------
Meanwhile back at the castle six individuals reside within the Tayla's bedroom too laid within the bed the other four are at its side, these individuals are the Queens and their mounts.
As for the two in the bed they are none other than Tayla and Nostra.
"My love we must put a binding collar on nostra."
deep sigh ... "I know you are right... but it is a difficult thing to do."
"Lantesh please forgive me you know if I had a choice I wouldn't but with the dark goddesses influence upon her we can't take any chances."
As she looks upon her daughter deep sorrow her voice crack's as she speaks.
"I..... un...derstand my queen."
With that Queen Alita nods her head to her Queen to proceed.
With the approval of everyone in the room except for the two unconscious individuals the queen moves forward with a collar in hand however just before she can put the collar on red lightning Sparks across the room and hits her square in the chest blasting her to the next wall.
Queen Alita quickly moves to her lover's side with a look of concern on her face.
"Esta my love are you okay?"
With a knod of her head she quickly stands up and dusts herself off.
"you should know better my love it'll take more than this young kit's lightning to hurt me."
"after all it would be quite embarrassing for a demigod to be injured by a newborn."
With that everybody gazes at the Young Fox now standing on the floor growling up at everyone her eyes are going red and there is a red haze surrounding her.
The next thing to surprises everybody is the armor plates on her body begin to converge and cover her entire being, going from a partial covering to a full plate that covers every inch of her.
Red lightning surges all around her body as her rage is evident she opens her mouth wide and the lightning around her starts to converge and with a mighty howl shoots the lightning fourth in a beam of pure energy.
The armored Fox that belongs to Queen Esta quickly jumps in front of the Queens, armor plates quickly wrapping around her covering her like the young fox.
the beam hits her in the side and it deflects through the window down into the courtyard below causing a large explosion.
Screams can be heard from outside as palace guard quickly moved to investigate.
"My Queens I will suppress her please see to the safety of the palace staff."
"I will help."
"Lantesh you have not recovered from your injury you will only get in the way."
She looks to her daughter with a grimace and nods her head.
"I understand Solaris please go easy on her she is not in control of herself."
With an nod of her head she turns to the young kit as hee beautiful golden red armor begins to hum with light.
With an impressive burst of speed she quickly knocks Nostra out the window into the courtyard below.
Nostra hits the ground making a sound akin to thunder causing spider web cracks to across the courtyard floor.
Solaris jumps out the window with Queen Esta on her back.
Esta clamps her hands together causing a barrier to push out the castle staff that are injured in the courtyard keeping the guards at Bay and the three of them within.
The queen hops down and stands at the side as if to watch to ensure no one interferes.
"come show me what you're capable of my niece, let me see what that rage of yours is capable of."
Nostra howl's straight up into the sky, the sky turns black and thunder arcs across the clouds causing surprise to flash across Solaris face the reason for which is her young niece barely more than a day old is using a mid-tier spell called call thunder.
As name suggests the spell brings forth thunder to strike at the user's Target however instead of striking towards Solaris the lightning falls straight upon Nostra shattering the barrier around them.
The lightning turns red and starts converging upon her mouth and with an agonizing howl fires the energy upon Solaris.
A energy shield of pure light wraps around Solaris as the energy attack strikes it head on dispersing the attack, firing red lightning in all directions striking the courtyard and the surrounding area, screams of panic ensue across the castle, several guards are hit directly and fall to the ground unmoving.
Solaris with her impressive speed tries to pin down the enraged kit, and becomes surprised yet again that her niece is moving at increased speed red lightning surging across her body, unable to pin her down the kit begins firing additional energy strikes at Solaris with each shots she would protect herself with an energy field however since the strikes are not as powerful as that last one instead of deflecting The shield absorbs the energy and the fight ensues for what appears to be hours as the enraged kit bounces off the walls at the speed of lightning narrowly avoiding her aunt's strikes.
As time passes the courtyard and the immediate area begin to look more like a ruin instead of a palace courtyard.
As the the fight drags on the slower Nostra becomes visibly exhausted and begins to pant heavily but yet she still fights as a blast of cold air freezes the immediate area around them, both individuals stop and turn to the one responsible.
Tayla begins taking slow measured steps towards Nostra ice forming at her feet her hair fluttering in the background no longer dressed in her ceremonial armor, wearing a white gown she looked to be the incarnation of ice itself stopping right in front of nostril whose form begins to change the lightning that once wrapped around her body started to turn into flame which concentrated at her feet and tail with a dark red hue makes the flame looked angry and all encompassing, ready to consume all around it.
It was a sight to behold as if a cold calm air rested around a raging inferno keeping each other at Bay with a shaky hand she reaches towards her companion tears flowing down her face, tears that turn to ice and then evaporated as they fell.
"I can feel your fear, pain, anger, a sense of betrayal, but I promise you are safe and I won't let anything happen to you."
Her gentle words and touch appear to have an effect as the flames around the young kit begin to subside as the two stare into each other's eyes Tayla brings out the collar that her mother's were going to put on her and slowly puts it around her neck with a sad smile on her face.
With the click of the caller nostril falls to the ground her armor plates going back into their original position the energy around her subsides she looks into the princess's eyes and tears Begin to Fall and she says only one small sentence.
("I'm sorry.")
