Finnex and The ShadowWorld Warriors [Completed]

Truth Is Revealed

"If you're not the Darkness then who is?" I asked.

"Remember that shadow I killed?" He asked with a sly grin, showing off his razor sharp fangs.

"So everything, you did for me was fake?!" I yelled.

"Some yes, but somethings I did...were not. See Finnex you fascinate me, you don't like seeing people in pain yet you'd kill if you needed to; which most of the time you have to." Dread explained unclasping his hands from behind his back.

"Dra- I mean Dread, did you mean to do this? To possess Dax? To bring me here?" I asked going up to the bars of the cage and wrapping my fingers around it, "And I want the truth."

"I did that to pull you away Finn! It's simple okay, they're tricking you into being apart of the ShadowWorld. Finnex they're Evil." He hissed.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

He clasped the cage too and leaned in to my face, "I mean this," He smashed his lips against mine. Then, I saw flashing red and finally it was an Actual NightMare.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I could see burnt towns, villages, and corpses. I almost threw up, until I saw a bit of rubble move, I ran over and saw...my mom.

She was laying there dead as post, I put my hand over my mouth and tried to hold back my tears. I heard boots marching this way.

Thinking quickly I hid under my lifeless mother. Black armored people marched in with Valkry leading them.

"Search this whole God For Saken town. We need to find the daughter a Rennea Cigu." He commanded.

Cigu? That's- That's my last name! I gasped.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

     I came out of the flashback. It was
horrible, I always thought I ran away. I looked to see I wasn't in the cage, instead I was beside Dread watching the SunRise.

"So...that's the truth aye?" I said.

"Yep, I planned on getting the others, but I need them alone." He said.

"Maybe I can help." I scooted closer to him, he looked over and smiled.

"It's possible."

"Each must be alone, looking for me. First we must get Gee and or Payton then Clara, finally Eragon which I doubt he'll come with us. Knowing him he'll probably attempt to kill you." I explained.

"I much rather myself get him instead of you, just so you know I think we should get only Clara and Gee. They are the only ones who was actually taken and Brainwashed, Eragon on the other hand, I know nothing."

He sighed and rested his head on my shoulder. I put my head on his head. I looked out at the now set sun, leaving the sky a Navy Blue.

"We should go." I said.

"Good idea, but I'm too comfy." He said and snuggled into my neck.

     I laughed slightly, "C'mon Goof."

     I stood up and he sighed, along with getting up too. I sprouted my wings and started to fly up. I looked back to see Dread's wings different.

     They were like the sky; Deep Navy and the faded to a maroon color. I smiled and flew toward the trees.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

     The first person I was gonna get was Gee, knowing she would most likely follow me. I found her easily. She was walking around still calling my name. I landed behind her.

"FINN!!" She called, "Ugh! I'm gonna get Drakus for this!"

"Gee." I said.

She turned around and gasped. She ran over and wrapped her arms around me tightly.

"Oh my Irene never do that again!" She said, "C'mon the others are waiting-"

"Here's the thing...I'm not going back to them." I said.

"What? Why not?" She laughed nervously.

"Because they LIED!" I yelled making a flock of crows fly away. I started to cry, "They lied to me, Valkry lied to me."

"What do you mean?" Gee asked.

"Just trust me okay." I said.

"I always did." She smiled.

I told her to follow me and we took off to what Dread called "Black Swarm." I flew her to where I was before.

"This may seem weird, but you have to stay in here until I return." I said waving my hand to the cage.

"Uh..okay, I guess." She went into the cage and sat on the ground.

"Don't worry I'll be back, Dread will explain everything." I said.

"Who's-" I cut her off by flying off into the darkness of night.

I flew through the trees searching for Payton or Clara. Dread said he would handle Eragon. Speak of the Devil.

"Okay all we need to get is Payton and hopefully Eragon, I saw that you got Gee." Dread said.

"Yep, just be sure not to scare her, I'll get Payton." I said.

I flew toward the woods. It was harder finding her since I guess her lazy bum decided to call it a night. I walked through the woods trying to find the werewolf.

"Finnex?" I heard behind me. It was Valkry.

     My breath hitched and a cold presence swept through the trees, "Hello Valkry." I calmly said.

"I thought Drakus took you," He sighed, "Thank God he didn't hurt you."

"No Val, he didn't. He just showed me something and we went on a merry little way." I said.

"What did he show you?" Those words cut through me. I could feel the feathers on my wings flare up, like an animal would do to be threatening.

"You should know." I said turning around.

"Why would I know?" He said.

"Because it was about you and me!" I said.

     Just then Dread flew down in front of me, blocking my view of Valkry. He looked happy.

"Okay I got Payton, you don't have to worry 'bout it. I'm not chancing Eragon-"

"Who in Hades are you?" Valkry said.

     Dread turned and faced Valkry, "Finn stay behind me."

"What? No, Finnex c'mon, we need to go and what do you mean you got Payton? Where is she?!"

"None of your business, my 'friend'." Dread smirked and as if it triggered something to Valkry, he looked frightened.

"No-No, this can't be! It can't!" Valkry said.

     Then, Eragon appeared from the sky, "Valkry! Payton, Clara, and Gee are missing!"

"I know." Valkry trembled as he pointed at Dread, "It was him."

"Eragon listen to me!" I said, "Come with us okay, he's lying about your life!"

"What? Finn you sound crazy, I've known Val all my life." Eragon said.

"No you don't get it-"

"Finnex you don't get it, he's brainwashing you." Eragon stepped up to me and smirked, "C'mon would I ever lie to you." Then something triggered a memory.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

     I gazed up at the mysterious man, he had a hood over his head. It was hard to see him. I could get the bad men coming up behind him.

"C'mon kid, we'll be sure not to kill ya." He snarled.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"You." I said darkly, "You was apart of it!"
