{4} The Journey

Shard went into the Ice Mountain and sighed. "There's nothing here." she said to herself. "I don't really have a role, a place or much of a personality." she spoke more softly this time. She closed her eyes and drifted off. "No! Where are the others? What did she do to them? It's all destroyed! Where is she?" said a voice. A low pitched voice laughed. "You really think you could stop them? They fled in fear." said Amelia. "There are none... None left now. No possibilities they are truly dead. Soon to serve under a necromancer." she continued. "You think you could ever stop this? You've stopped one path but ended another with an opportunity. If it wasn't for that foolish Ice Dragon I suppose this would have never happened. You'd atleast have a few dragons as allies. As for Oblivion-" she said in a seductive voice before being interrupted. "He won't come back..." The voice was clear to tell it's Ebony. "He won't...." she started laughing. "He can't." Then Oblivion appeared and that's where it ended. "I must stay!" said Shard. She told everyone to stay here, that it would be safe. She flew as fast as she could following the trail she saw Ebony going in her vision. Ebony was still resting in the small den. "Ebony..." said Shard. "What..." she said grimly. "Ebony, Amelia she's coming I foresaw it." said shard, gasping for air. "That's impossible... Then again that traitor is "working" for him." Ebony replied. "He's using her... Too bad she doesn't know it." Ebony finished off the sentence. Shard looked very confused. "You must come back to manage Alba." Shard said trying to convince Ebony to come back. The beautiful Autumn leaves fell down and into the cave due to the strong wind. "Fine I suppose. It will have to wait if it's that important." Ebony said and sighed. They flew back at a slower pace and the storm cleared with one last lightning bolt, blood red.
