Cobra, heir to the throne, sits in the corner of her mother's bedroom, silently crying.
"Zenith has given up the throne, Cobra will be the next queen.", Zen tells the two lions standing at the door.
Gray turns his head to the person in the corner and realizes it's Cobra. He goes and sits in the corner with her and hugs her gently.
Algorithm, silent and his eyes are very dim, almost black, not much blue remains.
Algorithm glares at the corner and watches.
Gray glances over to Cobra, "Wow."
Zen sighs, she looks tired. "So... y-", she starts coughing violently, it last for about a minute before she stops and takes a deep breath.
"So...", he brings up her bio reading up in his eyes and sighs. its horrible.
"As I was saying, you probably know that I am very sick... all i ask, dont let the reaper take my core until after the power transfer.", Zen pleads hoarsely.
"I will make sure of it my friend. How long should the transfer take?", Al asks calmly.
"Thats the problem... I don't know...", Zen sighs.
"I hope not too long... I know it will be painful for both of us...", Cobra replies, her voice shaky as she tries to hold in her tears.
"We will protect you both, ", white armor forms on half of Al's body and one eye turns a bright smokey orange, while Gray glows a light purple with purple vapor rising off of him. Over the years they have learned to control their powers. ", my friend and queen."
Zen smiles weakly, you notice her eyes aren't glowing as they used to. Silver comes into the room, he sits next to Zen and hugs her gently, not speaking a word.
Al removes her readings from his vision. He does want to see. His body is enveloped in the white and gray burns a brighter purple. They both start crying quietly.
The room silent except for the crying, Zen closes her eyes and leans onto Silver, still smiling. As the smile fades, an amber and violet aura forms around Cobra and Zen. Zen growls, tensing, Cobra gasps and closes her eyes, growling in pain.
Gray hugs her tighter and Al's eyes both turn orange and his vision darts around the room looking for the reaper.
Al sees a blue snake dragon just inside the door, grinning like a Cheshire Cat, and there's a shadow on the other side of the door.
Al turns towards the door and looks at the shadow.
"Not. Yet.", Al growls aggressively.
The snake dragon hissed, inching forward, pulling the door open with his tail.
Algorithm's claws come out, but because of the armor they turn into 6 inch daggers.
"I said not yet.", Al's eyes burn a bright yellow.
There's a low ghostly hiss from behind the door, "Just relax."
Al's eyes flash, his voice turns into a high enough pitch that anyone could hear, "Relax?! My friend just died, damn it!"
Cobra's eyes open, she stands, still shaking, still with the aura, her eyes glowing. Silver looks up at her.
Silver's eyes widen and gets up, slowly backing away.
Cobra hisses like a cobra would, it turns demonic and a small amber and violet flame comes with it.
Gray's eyes widen as well as he backs off.
