Pashiva The Archvil Saga

Melat stands up to Pensen

           After knocking Pensen up onto the balcony, Felren, Array and Naytan ran into the palace getting chased by guards while chasing the red cloak council. "Hey, kid where did you get the brilliant idea to take me on and expect not to face some casualties"? Pensen asked. "Believe me Pensen, I've seen enough casualties today. First my father then Vekliv, grrrrrr AAAAAHHH YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT PENSEN". Melat yelled as he ran towards Pensen and kicked him far into the building knocking him against the door that lead to the room where the red cloaks met with Pensen the night before. Pensen fell down and stared at Melat with even more confusion. "Warp shoes. This is new". Pensen thought to himself. "I never thought I'd have to do this but I guess I'm fighting". Pensen also thought. He stood up to face Melat who started getting himself ready for another attack. Melat then ran at Pensen at his full speed just before Pensen held out his hands and out shot about six small firework looking attacks at Melat which Melat barely had enough time to dodge leaving him unable to reach Pensen. "What, what's he shooting at me"? Melat asked himself. Pensen then held out his left pointer finger and shot another firework at Melat. This one hit Melat as the firework exploded burning small holes in the floor. Melat was knocked back into the wall. Pensen then continued firing small fireworks at Melat which were enough to break holes in the walls pushing Melat deeper and deeper until the wall came down and Melat flew into the next room. The room was a small hallway with a staircase at the end of it and the corridor turned right, the corridor lied on Melat's left in his perspective as he ran as fast as he could toward the end until the corridor turned right again. Pensen fired fireworks at the wall piercing holes in the hallway. The next room Melat ended up in was the throne room. The room was a large open room which had a wide red carpet with three stairs going up leading to a large golden throne with a red cushioned seat on it. Soon fireworks that came out of the hallway Melat came from fired hitting the other side of the room as Pensen walked in firing more as Melat ran as fast as he could and unleashed a barrage of punches pinning Pensen against the wall not letting up on him. "AARRGGGRRRRRR THIS IS THE END FOR YOU". Melat yelled continuing to punch him as Pensen punched Melat in the right side of his head knocking him away. Pensen then kicked Melat away as he took off his red cloak revealing the red royal robe underneath with a blue belt around his waist. Pensen's tall hat was tilted slightly as he took it off and took the yellow god shard off and tucked it between his belt and his robe. "You've really pushed my buttons kid". Pensen said. "Your making me go to measures I've never had to go to before". Pensen explained. Melat didn't respond he just stared at Pensen. "But nevertheless, in a little while I'll get to retire from my role and leave the job of ruling these insolent fools to Leach". Pensen said. "Why, why are you doing this, the people you killed". Melat asked. "Man is sinful and the only way to get rid of his sins is not for a man ruler to rule man. But a god to rule man. And that God will be the great mother of the Under Beings Leach". Pensen said. He then rubbed his hands on the yellow god shard as he ended up glowing a bright yellow. Soon the yellow aura disappeared. "I hate to do this to my own kingdom but, if that rebellious fool was your father then killing you will put me at peace". Pensen said as he shot a barrage of yellow flares which resembled fire which were aimed at Melat. The flares were very slow leaving Melat able to move out of the way but was quickly overrun by about ten decently sized flares. The ones he dodged hit the walls engulfing the room in bright fire. Melat was at the end of the room in front of the throne as more flares shot at him. "How, how can he have more then one God Shard power? Also how can a God Shard that shoots fireworks last this long"? Melat asked out loud. "My alchemist advisor discovered and distributed a recipe for making the effects of God Shards last forever. However there are limitations. You can only have three God Shard powers so if you take one power, you're stuck with it forever". Pensen explained. Melat looked shocked and confused at the same time. All he could think about was how to get close enough to hit Pensen.

         While Melat and Pensen were fighting, Felren, Array and Naytan met up and were fighting a hoard of guards guarding a doorway in which the red cloaks walked in before it was shut. Upon reaching it Felren looked to Naytan. "Naytan got any of those marbles left"? Felren asked. "Uh". Naytan replied while pulling out a small black marble. "Yeah". Naytan said. "Use it". Felren replied. Naytan nodded then threw the marble at the ground near the guards at the doorway. The guards guarding it started coughing furiously as Felren and Array got their swords and cut all the guards and kicked open the door. On the other side of the doorway lied a large spiral staircase with stone walls and black metal railings. The three looked down and saw the red cloaks as Naytan noticed Hal with them. They were at the bottom of the staircase and nearly walked out of their sights. Felren looked angered as he climbed up on the railings and looked back. "Hold off the guards coming after us". Felren ordered. He then jumped down from the first spiral in the staircase landing on the next level, then the next reaching the bottom as he stared at the red cloaks walking into a large metal door All of the red cloaks walked in except two. Felren shot one with his crossbow and the other red cloak had the red shard in his hands as he then fired a thick purple mist at Felren. Felren was charging the red cloak at that time and ran into the mist and started coughing and dry heaving. "(Cough cough) Ugh, what? A toxic shard, he didn't even have an aura. What kind of alchemy did they practice here"? Felren asked himself.

         At the top of the staircase about three soldiers approached with a katana for each of them as Array readied hers. "Naytan go help Felren hurry". Array whispered. Naytan nodded as he did the same as Felren and jumped from the top of the staircase to the other railings only more sloppily until reaching the bottom with the mist still there. He saw Felren lying unconscious in the mist as he pulled him out and mashed his chest trying to resuscitate him. "Felren come on don't die not here not now come on". Naytan yelled filled with sorrow. Felren woke up really woozy from the mist. "(Cough cough) Thanks Naytan, that toxins really strong, cant believe I didn't die". Felren said sickly. They both saw the door that was now closed. "You have to break open that door". Felren said sickly. "I'm too weak, just pull out a God Shard and try to mash open the door". Felren said. Naytan looked doubtful. "Naytan you can do it, your strong and your smart alirght". Felren said smiling with his eyes half open. He lied his head down to relax. Naytan looked at the door and pulled out a light gray shard and rubbed his hands on it as he gained a gray aura giving him the knife shard powers. "Hey Felren give me your sword I need it". Naytan yelled. Felren handed him the sword as Naytan was ready to burst open the door.

       At the throne room of the palace was Pensen still shooting at Melat who was dodging all his attacks. "Damn I have no choice but I have to do this". Melat yelled as he pulled out a strength shard and rubbed it between his hands. He then was given the strength shard aura as the attacks stopped leaving Pensen curious for what Melat's next move would be. "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH". Melat yelled as he ran towards Pensen with his new temporary powers revealed.
