Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Dashaco lays on the ground still unconses.*

"Starshine?" Kasumi called to the brigght one. It sat up and buzzed to show she was listening. "Why are he dark dragons after me?"
Starshine: she sat there silent for a while, wondering what she could tell the young dragon and what was best left un said. "You are part of a key, Sky Gem. Without you, they cannot open the door."
"what door?" kasumi asked whent the Bright One fell silent again.
Starshine: The door they seek to open. The door that must remain closed. The door all Bright Ones protect. The door all Dark Ones seek to destroy or open. She hummed eeirly.

Sesero: "Ahh, yes sir, forgive me!" *He dashes with blurring speed afterKasumi from under the trees. When he finally catches up to her, he takes to the air, grabs her by the tail and throws her down onto the ground, the impact causing a crater on the ground* "Hopefully I didn't kill you in that process, little one." *Picks her up by her throat* "It is sad to see such beauty go to waste don't you agree... Sky Gem?"

Rikkei: *Struggles rigorously to break free. After awhile begins to start giving up* "I can't... I...I-I failed. I failed my father, my grandfather and everyone of our ancesters." *Bows his head for a moment* "Forgive me..."

???: "Forgive you for what?" *Another Draconi spirit appear before him, she was slim and had pure white scales. She morphed into her human form; her skin radiated from the light. Her delicate blue eyes looked at him with sympathy as her white gown dragged along the floor* "You are giving up to quickly, young one."

Rikkei: "But Grandmother Ename... It is useless. The their strength surpasses our own. We can't win..."

Ename: "And you think that not how your grandfather and your father felt when they hit a seemingly insurmountable situation? You can win this, Rikkei: 'Impossible is a human word where one only looks at the many possibilities of failure over the few possibilities to succeed.'" *She began to fade away* "Remember, once you fade too far into despair you may never return from it."

Rikkei: *Lifting up his head, he saw what he was to do* "Then so BE IT!!!" *Creating an energy surge, the spell holding him was broken as he took off pass the main combat field*

Nimbar: "I'll get him, Master!" *Takes off after him getting far in front, he stops ready to grab him* "Your not getting away from us..." *Rikkei decks him square in snout sending him skidding along the ground as he went for Sesero. Seeing him come, Sesero dropped Kasumi and began to turn tail until he was grabbed and thrown into the trees. Rikkei's scales began to radiate red until his body changed:

("Draconi Rage Form") Unleashing a mighy roar he remained stationary hovering above where Kasumi* "Simasei Nifuyoh bonsku" ("Come if you dare!")

Sesero: "Nimbar... I think we just made him angry with us..."

Nimbar: *gets up and rubs his cheek* "We can both take him Sesero... He's... not... more powerful... than us!" *Hesitantly rushes toward the two. Rikkei glares in his direction and a flaming pillar shoots up from under Nimbar. Sesero follows suit, but Rikkei unleashed another roar send the two dark dragons back* "Master Donsukai! We have a PROBLEM!!!"

Sesero: "What the...? Nimbar! Help me out here!"

Nimbar: "What? Are you nuts!?" *Nimbar's feet trembled* "No one messes with a Dragon that is enraged!!! Only Donsukai could probably get through to him! I won't even be able to get past him to help you out! But at least he's not in continuos motion... Then we would all be in trouble!"

Rikkei: *Brings his head back, energy gathering into his open mouth. After a few seconds the orb of energy grows beyond his head size* "FEIRUO GOTAS-MAYU" ("RAGING REDEMPTION!") *The orb erupted into a beam at the frozen Draconi. Fearing the worst, Sesero braced for impact, but was saved by Nimbar last minute who was instead hit by the blast. The heat from the attack had melted away the ice in seconds. After the beam faded, Nimbar was nowhere to be seen, Sesero stood in terror and Rikkei reverted back to his basic human form drain of energy struggling to stay on his feet* "I... I won't... Let you..."

Nimbar: *Battered and bloodied; instantaneously appeared behind him as put his whole paw threw him* "You son of a half breed... You were more annoying than the youngling!" *Pulling his hand from Rikkei's body, Rikkei fell to the floor*

Tonji: *His chest began to ache, he looked as he saw Nimbar pull his hand from out of Rikkei* "Rikkei... NOOO!" *Takes off to his, pulling a longsword, he runs it through Nimbar and tosses him aside. Once he gets to Rikkei's side he kneels down and holds him up* "COME ON: RIKKEI! NOT YOU, TOO; NOT YOU, TOO!"

Sesero: *Catches Nimmbar, whispers to him* "You still have his blood on your hand?" *Nimbar showed the blood stained hand* "Good, go ahead to the Gate and get it opened, I'll grab the youngling." *Approaches Kasumi when he hears an irritating buzz in his ears* "Ah, you bright ones were always a pain..." *Swinging his paw he hits the bright one as it hit a tree, becoming visible as it hit the floor* "And now, to get the Key..." *Picking her up, he and Kasumi becomeengulfed in shadow Disappearing from sight*

Tonji: cry "Rikkei, please hang in there... I don't want to lose you like I did your mother! Please, stay with me!!"

Rikkei: *near death* "I... never knew... this would be... what it's like... to die for..."

Tonji: "No more, Rikkei... Say no more. I'll get you help, just hang in there." *Holds him close* "The only reason I left you back at home to fight on your own was because of your mother, Rikkei: not because we were bound to lose... She was struck by a slayer's poisoned arrow; she was only human! The poison killed her within two days... I was never a coward, Rikkei; you know better than that!"

Rikkei: "Then... I am sorry... for ever... doubting... you..." *His eyes slow close, his breathing ends with a sigh* (Tonji will now be the base line character for me for a while)

Tonji: "Rikkei, Rikkei!"

Katsuie: *Appears before Tonji* "I am sorry, my son... but he chose this path for himself"

Tonji: *Slowly lays down his son's body, gets to his feet, and turns to face Donsukai and Dashaco and slowly begins to walk toward the fray*

Sesero: *Emerges from the shadows turns around to see Tonji walk in a familiar manner* "Wait a minute... That walk... No, he's... *He could see a vague image appearin his stead:*

It's DOTSAIKU! Has he been reborn?" *Summons dark creatures and sends them on the offensive against him* Master Donsukai; we have the key! They all wont be able to fight us very long. Please, my Lord: blind them and let's be on our way!"

([OoC]Dashaco Tonji is not Dotsaiku: it was to show who Sesero was reminded of)

Sesero: "Master Donsukai!!!"

Tonji: *The dark beings attack the group, they all keep them at bay, but Tonji Swings his blade still moving forward, undeterred* "I will stop you if it is the last thing I do, Donsukai." *Disregarding what he was told, he continues to move forward: revenge for his fallen son still wanting to be quenched* "Let this sword be the end of you!" *He was rarely stopped by the enemy his heart bent for the only thing for vengence*

Zell: "Tonji, forget about Rikkei for now, help Kasumi!"

Tonji: "I won't just drop it!" *He keeps going regardless of the matter* "I won't forget him so easily!"

Zell: *Get up to him, grabs him by the collar and held him up* "WE ARE NOT GOING TO FORGET HIM!!!" *Tonji's demeanor changed, frightened at the sight of his own teacher* "JUST DO AS YOUR TOLD AND GET OUT OF HERE!!!"

Tonji: *Without another word, Tonji went and picked up Kasumi, Turned to see his dead son, then over to Dashaco* "I entrust you to avenge my son, Master Dashaco." *Sprouting his wings he take to flight to get out of the area followed by the other Scion*

Tonji: "I can't believe it!" *Land on the ground* "Both of them sacificed themselves for us, in different ways." *He looks up to the sky, tears in his eyes* "But why, Rikkei was the only thing that reminded me of his mother... I only wanted to see him grow up with everything behind us." *The sky begins to grow cloudy...*

Imelia: "Hey look at this..." *Everyone looks up to the sky* "What is about to happen here..."
