The Glyph Monado

Ch. 100: Fighting can be Fun

Luz and Amity watched Boscha did a hole in the snow and dirt.

"So, what are we looking for?" Luz asked.

There was a thunk and Boscha tossed the shovel aside.

"This." Boscha said pulling out a box, "My grandmother was an Oracle and she gave me something special. She told me that there would be two people in my life that would change me for the better, that I should give them these when I was positive of who they were."

Boscha opened the box and held out three rings. One yellow, one purple, and one red.

"I know the yellow one is for me, and I know the other two are for you." Boscha said, "Because you two have changed my life."

"So they're like...promise rings?" Luz said before gasping. "No! Destiny rings!?"

"That actually sounds about right, destiny rings." Amity said with a small blush.

"Exactly. They're destiny rings." Boscha said as she held out the box to Luz and Amity, wanting them to take two rings.

Amity grabbed the purple one, and Luz grabbed the red on. They put them on their fingers and smiled... which was ended when they were suddenly surrounded by Coven Scouts.

"Freeze, human!" A coven commander shouted as they all pointed crossbows at them.

Luz froze for a moment, her left eyes twitching a bit as slowly looking around at the Emperor's Coven scouts surrounding them. If this was a date, which Luz could assume as much, it was ONCE AGAIN ruined by who knows what force that hates her apparently!

'ARE YOU KIDDING ME, TITAN?!' Luz thought in outrage!

'The very SECOND I get a portal, we're having a date there!' Luz thought.

"Listen here you annoying bastards, I am getting very tired of you ruining my dates!" Luz said, pulling out her sword, "Now either you leave or I kill you, I am not in the mood to deal with you!"

The coven guards pointed their weapons at the trio, but weren't able to advance, when a large creature got between them, like it was protecting Luz.

"Is that-" Amity asked.

Luz nodded.

"The Death Glider."

They all assumed the Death Glider had died the last time they saw it, the cold of the Knee should've been it's end but it seems it evolved quickly and developed some resistance to the cold. And it was smart enough to remember the Emperor's Coven, how they held it hostage, how they hurt it. It also remember Luz, how she helped cut the collar off, how she helped it despite it trying to kill her.

"How is it still alive?! It should've frozen to death by now!" One said, shaking in fear.

It slowly stood up on it's hind legs and let out it's ear shattering roar.

Everyone but Luz covered their ears from the roaring, feeling extreme pain as the beast began charging at the coven scouts! It quickly stained the ground red with blood as it clamped its mouth around the upper body of a scout.

"Kill it!" A scout shouted as they turned their aim for the Death Glider instead of Luz now.

It didn't do much. Anything they hit it with, only resulted in it being angrier, in turn, making it want to kill them.

"Um.....should we run or help?" Amity asked them.

"No, we're going to help the Death Glider find a new home, away from where it will mess with anyone, and away from where the Coven will find it." Luz said.
