A Knights Code

A memory from long ago.

------------

"A Knight's Code demonstrates strength, prowess, and bravery in battle; respects others; stands up for the weak and the poor; is kind to others; obeys their majesty and most important of all protects their majesty."

Dillia thinks back to her training as she activates Siegfried's Armor Mode.

"As if am going to make you transform Mage," Podarge exclaims as she begins to throw the air cutters directly at Dillia.

Dillia with a smirk on her face.

She gets hit with a blast following it.

Podarge walks closer "Hmm I guess I should've waited until you were finished on well."

VOOSH

The smoke clears as dragon wings blow them away. Dillia now wearing black and gold armor with boots, long pants, a chest piece, shoulder pads, a cape, an extended neck collar, with gloves.

Podarge was shocked by this transformation.

"No matter I shall end this quickly," Podarge says as she hurls multiple wind cutters at Dillia.

Dillia grips her cloves, moves her arms around, and stretches her body.

"It's been a while," Dillia says before sprinting across the battlefield. Dillia runs at full speed full throttle at Podarge slashing away all the attacks she throws at her.

Podarge examines her movements again "Her speed seems to have increased exponentially." Dilia then creates a fire slash from Siegfried. "Now she can shoot fire out of that blade huh."

The two clash again with their swords. As they engage in a sword battle. The two parry each other on the ground. "There an opening," Podarge says to herself. Dillia successfully blocks it with ease. "This girl is getting faster as the fight goes on. She seems to be more expressive now" Podarge thinks.

"PAY ATTENTION!" Dillia yells as she cuts Podarge's arm.

"Yes, this indeed getting far too dangerous I should take our battle to the sky. With Aello's storm wind ability, I should be able to take her out" Podarge thinks as grabs at her arm.

Podarge then flies toward the sky. "I wonder how good her flying is," Podarge says as she looks at Dillia still on the ground looking up.

"Is she not going to follow?" Podarge wonders.

VOSH

Suddenly Dillia appears right in front of her as she goes in for an attack. Podarge goes to block. "Huh, she disappeared?"

SLASH.

Dillia slashes Podarge from behind. "Too much thinking not enough action!!" Dillia yells with excitement. Podarge begins to fall back to the ground as Dillia swiftly follows and slams Podarge into the ground as she did to her moments before.

"That wasn't a slash from the blade Podarge says it was the slash from the overlay effect on her blade or maybe it was her flame attack from her sword what was it that hit me? " Podarge questions the attack Dillia threw at her as she didn't have enough time to process it.

Dillia then turns Podarge over and points the blade at her neck. "It seems the tides have changed demon!" Dillia says.

"Dont get cocky brat just because you have bested me in this one exchange," Podarge yells as she gets Dillia off of her.

"Just because you had a little speed boost doesn't mean you can talk and act high and mighty." Podarge exerts more energy.

"That's more likely to show me more power, hahaha," Dillia says excitedly with a smile on her face taunting Podarge.

"It seems her not only her fighting style but her personality changed as well," Podarge says to herself. "No matter this WILL end now," Podarge says out loud.

Dillia stands and waits for her transformation to complete.

Now with a more demonic face with horns and fangs, the beauty that harpies are known is no more. Podarge with more ruffled-up wings, her shades of color are now gone as her skin turns into a pale white. "Look now Dragon Knight this is what will be your end," Podarge says in a more demonic voice. "This will be your last sight before-"

SLICE

"UH, what happened?? She, she, sliced me in half when how." Podarge looks at Dillia again. "Her armor changed." Dilla changed her form mid-transformation to a much more speed-based armor. Dillia removes her pant's top armor and replaces them with a skirt and a top that reveals her midsection more.

"Siegfried Rapid Form" Dillia says.

"I waited for you to transform to end. It's a knight's thing to do. " Dillia says calmly as her armor and sword begin to fade away and she comes back to her original black attire.

"Damn you."

Podarge body splits in half as it disappears into the wind. As Dillia does a striking motion to clean the blood off her blade and puts it back into its sheath.

Ha.

Dillia collapses to the ground. "That's the first time in a long time that I have used so much power." She says to herself. "I wonder how Alice is doing?" As she sits on the ground staring into the sky. Then a green bird appears. "A bird. Wind? A wind bird? June!! Something must have happened I must alert the others.

Dillia vs Podarge is Finished.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Onto another room.

"Hmm, it seems your allies have been successful in beating my sisters," the red harpie sister says.

"Well, there's going to be a third. As you're not touching the princess." Jericho says ready for battle.

HIS

"Again there's that noise it coming from your blade? Are you a dragon knight as well?

"Yes, I am the Knight Jericho the bodyguard to Princess Emilia of the Emerald Isle."

"Well, Mr.Knight I hope your as strong you ally there."

VOSH

"Or should I say faster?" Jericho quickly dodges the attack but still gets a small cut on his face.

"Good reaction time," the red harpie sister says.

"I am Ocypete the swift-flying. " the harpie says as she collects the energy from her fallen sisters.

"Your end comes now Knight," Ocypete says while transforming.

"As I follow my knight's code I will not let you pass and make it out of her alive. Prepare to meet your end demon." Jericho says confidently.

"ARISE AZURE!!" Jericho yells as he turns his sword to its side.
