Forgotten Memories, Bonded Friends
Shade's eyes changed color once again.
" We should head over to the castle's shadow, that could be where the castle really is, right? " Adam asked.
"We don't have time to think this over, Adam, it may not be the right way. " NightFall replied sternly, it was obvious she doesn't agree to Adam's choice here. "And besides, it might be an illusion used to trick us!" NightFall argued.
Valadhiel shook her head. " Only one of those are an illusion, NightFall, both of them cannot be illusions at the same time, and yet it is unusual to see a shadow of a house in dangerous places like this, there would be a high percentage of the house already in ruins." Valadhiel pointed out, she was dead serious.
" That is true, But there is also little percentage chance that the house would still be standing, and yet, one of the two shadows is not just a simple illusion. " Zkula replied but had also agreed with Valadhiel for a change.
There was at first silence for a few minutes when the group noticed that they hadn't heard anything but the snow storm around them, although it looked like Zkula could have already realized it.
Then CRASH!! A huge stomp onto the ground was loud, unbearably loud, as if the beast drawing near was right beside them, they made their choice, they head for the castle's shadow the moment they heard the noise.
They knew that once the beast catches them, it would be all over. But the moment they start to run towards the castle, they heard a huge and defening ROAR!!
"That doesn't sound good!" Nami spoke.
NightFall, Adam and Valadhiel all glanced at the beast who was about to chase after them.
The beast who had just seen them was enormous! It was a great dragon whose skin is blue and scaly, but that's not all, the beast had wings that appears to be bigger then it's body, the feet it has is almost as big as a house, it's teeth are sharp and pointy, but had dried blood stains on them, meaning that the dragon probably had previous victims prior to whence the group had come, it's eyes are mostly black except the pupils which are demonically blue as it stares at it's fleeing food.
It roars again as it begins to chase the group.
Everyone was running for the castle, but Zkula and Shade stopped in their tracks, and turned to face the hungry dragon, causing Valadhiel and the other 3 to stop for a bit to look back at their two allies.
"Go! We will meet again, at the castle!" Zkula shouted before Valadhiel could say anything.
Shade stood by Zkula's side so to help her fight the dragon.
Valadhiel and the others were hesitant at first. But then they nodded and ran for the castle's gates, the gates ahead of them appear to be closing!
But it's now or never, Valadhiel, Adam, Nami, and NightFall makes a run for the gates, they barely made it through in time before the gates completely slam shut to the ground.
"Will they be alright?" NightFall asked anxiously.
" Let's hope so..." Valadhiel replied, although she was also anxious when she got an odd but terrifying vision as she gasped and felt an invisible force go through her flesh and toward her heart.
~~Flashback~~
Back to whence the female mother of the young infant was dragged into the woods screaming, the infant, was asleep, but had heard her mother scream, she woke up and saw her being dragged into the woods, the infant began to cry but her mother took one last look at her daughter, tears appeared in her eyes, she closed her eyes, as if knowing she was going to die, and her daughter would be alone. She was completely dragged into the woods, and out of her daughter's sight, and then, there was a horrible scream, her mother's scream as there was a horrid sound of bloodshed, and an evil laughter was heard, the one that which scarred her for life, the infant cried hysterically, as a figure of a man came behind the baby and reached out to grab her.
Then the vision had changed to a time much longer before the first thing even had happened, at a cliff, stood Allura, the women whom Valadhiel had seen before within thy nightmares she's had before, a sound was heard aiming directly at her. She knew what it was and tilted her head to the right as a knife barely missed her head and flew straight into the ocean ahead of Allura. She looked back to see Ortherion once more, a bit more furious however, as his expression show anger.
The Fire Mage from her dreams had been beside her when this had happened, he had been looking back at Ortherion, with the intention of burning his flesh, right now he cannot and with a good reason for he's no match for Ortherion alone or with Allura by his side at this time.
The reason why is because Ortherion's gathered much power, the two would need all the help they could get if they need to emerge victorious for the sake of this world, Allura began to speak to Ortherion.
"Why do you insist on attempting to kill me?" Allura asked. " I am a Goddess and I cannot die as easily as you believe."
Ortherion remained silent before he smirks slyly at her.
" I prefer to keep that a secret until it would be time. I don't care if you cannot die easily, that just makes the challenge to removing you alot more fun." He replied.
Allura grimaced in response as she spoke.
" You've changed much, you used to be a God of Conquest, but now you've went and had long gone against the order of this world and the laws of the spirit world. For what you've done to all, you cannot be forgiven." She spoke, anger can be seen in her eyes although she tried to remain calm.
Ortherion saw the anger in her eyes and laughed, ignoring what she had said.
" Anger can be seen in your eyes, I could sense your anger no matter how you try to hide it, it will be your downfall in the near future, Allura. Nothing more. " He spoke simply as if knowing what is going on.
Allura kept silent, not saying a word, she tried to keep herself calm and composed but to no avail as she felt anger building up inside her.
"Shut up!" The Fire Mage shouted at him. " Does that me that I, Leon will be felled by anger too even as though I'm a Fire Mage?!"
Ortherion chuckled darkly at the man named Leon.
" Only time will tell, flaming brat. " He spoke and jumped backwards.
Ortherion jumped back impressively far, to the point where Allura could barely see him as he landed swiftly onto the hard ground with a sly grin.
"Despite this fact having been true, I'm surprised that even you could feel it, Allura. A goddess like you usually couldn't feel anger and hate. " He called out to her.
Still had Allura remained silent, she never felt like this before, usually she would be calm and kind, but something had turned the tides, what's going on this time around?
Before Allura could finally say a word to Ortherion, the ground shook, an earthquake's happening at the wrong time!! First the battle with the mutated beast she and Leon fought the last time, what are they going to deal with now?
To answer that question, a low growl is heard somewhere, all three looked up at the air where the growl possibly came from and saw a giant gargoyle, it's skin is dark gray, gray as stone. It's wings are huge and wide to the point where they are slightly above the size of the modern airplane hanger, the body itself is 9 times bigger then Allura and Leon!
It carries a large stone spear as it flies to the ground and lands on the ground with it's feet, bringing about a dangerous earthquake, it was difficult to move but Ortherion doesn't seem to mind and laughs.
" Allura, meet my stone pet Rancor!" Ortherion laughs out loud. " I would stay here and chat a while longer but Rancor wanted to meet you, I'm sure you both would 'get along' well!"
He laughed some more and disappears in shadow, away from sight for he is gone for the time being until the next encounter.
Rancor stomps it's feet onto the ground, causing the earth to rumble once more, making it difficult for Allura and Leon to move around, the reason Allura cannot fly at this time is because she lost her wings to the monster that stood before them now when she descended upon this world on the mission to defeat Ortherion when she encountered this damned gargoyle!
It was the reason why Allura had never taken flight ever again, for her wings were torn off her back brutally and ripped to shreds when she got into an ambush without knowing, she did however survive barely and managed to escape at that time, thanks to her ability to regenerate at a fast pace.
The downside is that she cannot regain the wings she had lost, if she could, this mission would be a whole lot easier. But alas, this can't be helped, the wounds from before had healed but on her back lay two permanent scars where her wings used to have been at, in which Valadhiel could surprisingly see in the dream.
Just as Rancor the flying stone giant was about to attack with it's spear, a yell is heard and a sword made of hard stone, the size of a long sword, flew into Rancor, knocking off the spear it held into the great distance from the field.
Confused, Leon and Allura looked to where the sword came flying from, it turns out to be a man, he wore brown leather shorts and shirt, he wore brown sandals at the time, he has brown hair and serious brown eyes. He also has tanned skin, from the looks of this, he looks to be a mere salesman, but if one were to look closely, there are tiny bits of turf flying around him.
Rancor turned to him and roared, the man roared back. " I, Stone Falls will not stand idle of this fight, I will see to it that you fall by my hands!!"
Just as he finished speaking, the gargoyle tries to crush him with one of it's hands but he dodged at the right moment, another earthquake occurred, but he doesn't seem to be affected by it.
He summoned boulders that are nearly the size of a house and threw them at the gargoyle's feet, damaging it and rendering it immobile for a short time.
Stone looks upon Leon and Allura and spoke to them.
" Do you need assistance? " He asked.
Leon shook his head. " Does it look like we don't need any?!"
" I take that as a yes." Stone replied calmly as he turned towards Rancor who's struggling to break the boulders that held down it's feet.
"Stone Falls, thank you very much." Allura spoke suddenly.
" Have no mention of it. " Stone said. "I'm a very powerful Earth Mage although I don't look of it. "
Rancor has finally broken out of it's prison and roars much more louder then before, it prepares to fight as Stone summons more boulders and Leon brings out the flames from his hands, and Allura prepares to use her magic power.
~~End of Flashback~~
Valadhiel was shocked at what she saw in the vision, the screams, the crying, and the laughter still ringing inside of her ears, but she had also felt a few emotions.
Shock- At what she saw had happened inside the vision.
Sadness- For what had happened to the female adult in the vision.
Terror- For the fact that she was terrified of the vision, not knowing that the scariest part of the journey were to come.
Pain- Due to her heart that which it aches when the vision ended.
As Valadhiel looked at where she felt the pain before the vision started, there was no blood, no markings, no nothing, the spot just looked normal and had no holes in it, she was still fine.
But how and why did it happen? Was there a reason? If so, could have it been a ghost, who wanted to show her all this? If so, why? No matter how much Valadhiel would deny this, it seems to make sense, but how come she didn't hear or feel the ghost coming?
That is one question she'll need an answer for soon, already her head began to hurt and she could feel pain coming onto her heart, those two men she had seen other then Ortherion...Does she miss them? Could it be why she felt such pain?
The more she thought, the more sense it slowly makes,this meant that someone had known this would all happen.
But Valadhiel shook her head, trying to calm down as she took a deep breath. This theory of someone knowing it all happening doesn't make sense.
" What's wrong, Valadhiel? " Nami asked.
" N-Nothing, I'm just worried about Zkula and Shade. Why do you ask?" Valadhiel replied.
" You looked a bit....pale." Nami answered, although she was concerned about her.
Valadhiel somehow found the whole vision to be familiar, had she been there? Was she at the scene of the whole thing happening? That would be unlikely, but Valadhiel hopes that she'll find the answer someday, and that Shade and Zkula would be alright.
~~Meanwhile with Sora and Hibiki~~
The timelines between the hospital and whence the group are currently at is rather different, it was night time, Sora was asleep in his bed, and Hibiki was on her bed, but she wasn't asleep at all, she was watching Sora and making sure he is safe.
When Hibiki looked out the window, she saw that it was dark outside and there were stars shining in the night sky.
She got off her bed although she couldn't help but worry of her new friends who had went to save her guardian sister, Alice.
She could remember the good times Hibiki had with Alice ever since they first met, they got along very well, and loved each other as sisters, for she and Alice had a very strong bond, and according to Sora, she was a very good friend to him, she sighs.
" I hope you and the others will be alright, sister. " Hibiki whispered sadly.
But after a few moments, a red alarm went off in the hospital, causing the whole room to flash in red, startling Sora and causing him to wake up as an announcement was heard.
" WARNING! WARNING! AN UNKNOWN INTRUDER HAS INFILTRATE THE HOSPITAL! THIS IS NOT A DRILL, ALL PATIENTS REMAIN IN THEIR ROOMS! REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A DRILL, ALL PATIENTS REMAIN IN THEIR ROOMS!"
Hibiki covered her ears with her hands until the announcement was over.
Sora sits up from his bed carefully, trying not to get himself injured as he is not fully healed yet but he winced in pain.
" What was that all about? " Sora asked as he tried to be more careful sitting up.
But before Hibiki could reply, there was a harsh banging behind the door, a harsh sound of someone pounding on the door, trying to break the door open, Hibiki was startled by the sudden banging, through the thick glass of the small window of the door, Hibiki saw an insane looking, red eye through the window, the eyebrow was lowered in rage.
Meaning that someone was there, after a few seconds, the person who was at the door went away from the door and his footsteps were getting fainter and fainter until they were no longer heard for the time being.
Now Hibiki and Sora know that they are not safe in the hospital anymore, they have to either get out of the hospital or remain in their room, like the announcement had said. But how would they get out of the hospital? Sora's still recovering from his injuries and it could take a while for them to get away from the hospital.
No, trying to escape from the hospital is out of the question, that would lead to their demise.
" Hibiki." Sora said. " Maybe we should stay in the room to be safe. "
" Are you sure? " Hibiki said to Sora as she turned to look at him, she was worried.
"I am sure, if anyone breaks in here, I could get them away." Sora replied honestly.
"But your still healing, I want to protect you and prevent you from getting hurt. " Hibiki said to Sora, she looked even more worried.
" ..... " Sora was silent for a moment then he finally spoke. " Alright, I'm counting on you. " He said to Hibiki.
" You trust me? " Hibiki was surprised but spoke.
"Of course I trust you. " Sora answered honestly.
However, soon, an unfamiliar noise was heard, like a portal was opened, and then closing, the room stopped glowing in red from the alarm and the alarm was shut off, as another announcement was heard.
" THE INTRUDER HAS ESCAPED, REPEAT, THE INTRUDER HAS ESCAPED,THE POLICE WILL BE LOOKING FOR THE INTRUDER IN THE MORNING! YOU MAY RETURN TO WHAT YOU WERE DOING! "
Hibiki and Sora looked at each other with confusion.
"....What was that about?" They thought in confusion.
Hibiki got back onto her bed as Sora laid down on his bed, carefully.
" I think we should get some sleep. " Sora yawned.
" Alright. " Hibiki agreed as she pulled the covers over her.
And the both of them went into a deep sleep.
~~In Hibiki's dream~~
Hibiki was talking with her guardian sister, Alice , who spoke to her in the dream with a smile as the both of them were in a park sitting on a bench.
"From what I've known, friends are our power, as long as we kept each other in our hearts, we'll never be apart. "
Hibiki smiled in her dream as she hugged her.
~~In Sora's dream~~
He was practicing with his skills of water bending, when his friend Alice was sitting on the grass watching him, she was fascinated as she smiled, eventually Sora stopped practicing and looked at Alice.
For some time, he had felt like a third father to her.
" Want to go back inside for dinner? " He grinned.
" Yeah!" Alice smiled. "Do you mind if I bring my sister over? " She asked.
" Sure, I don't mind. " He answered.
~~End of double dream~~
Sora was awakened by a loud thumping sound, the sound of loud footsteps approaching him in the room.
Sora opened his eyes slowly since he was very tired, he opened his eyes fully and was surprised to see how dark the room looks as he could barely see in the dark.
As his eyes adjusted to the darkness of the room, he manage to see a shadowy figure stand next to his bed, the figure towers over him and gives off a threatening aura, holding a sharp object in it's dark hand.
"W-Who are you? " Sora asked, his throat still clogged with sleep.
The figure doesn't answer, in fact, the figure looked down at him, it's aura grew more threatening, it slowly began to raise the object in it's hand high up, over Sora's head, it was a knife!
Sora's eyes widened as the figure prepares to slam the knife down on him, he glances at Hibiki, she had just began to open her eyes, and then Sora glanced at the figure again, it hesitated at first, Hibiki woke up completely, and saw the scene happening as she gasped.
"S-Sora!" Hibiki exclaimed.
The figure saw Hibiki wide awake, and slowly began to walk toward her, the knife in hand.
What shall Hibiki and Sora do? A choice must be made or there will be a price to pay!
Shade's eyes changed color once again.
" We should head over to the castle's shadow, that could be where the castle really is, right? " Adam asked.
"We don't have time to think this over, Adam, it may not be the right way. " NightFall replied sternly, it was obvious she doesn't agree to Adam's choice here. "And besides, it might be an illusion used to trick us!" NightFall argued.
Valadhiel shook her head. " Only one of those are an illusion, NightFall, both of them cannot be illusions at the same time, and yet it is unusual to see a shadow of a house in dangerous places like this, there would be a high percentage of the house already in ruins." Valadhiel pointed out, she was dead serious.
" That is true, But there is also little percentage chance that the house would still be standing, and yet, one of the two shadows is not just a simple illusion. " Zkula replied but had also agreed with Valadhiel for a change.
There was at first silence for a few minutes when the group noticed that they hadn't heard anything but the snow storm around them, although it looked like Zkula could have already realized it.
Then CRASH!! A huge stomp onto the ground was loud, unbearably loud, as if the beast drawing near was right beside them, they made their choice, they head for the castle's shadow the moment they heard the noise.
They knew that once the beast catches them, it would be all over. But the moment they start to run towards the castle, they heard a huge and defening ROAR!!

It roars again as it begins to chase the group.
Everyone was running for the castle, but Zkula and Shade stopped in their tracks, and turned to face the hungry dragon, causing Valadhiel and the other 3 to stop for a bit to look back at their two allies.
"Go! We will meet again, at the castle!" Zkula shouted before Valadhiel could say anything.
Shade stood by Zkula's side so to help her fight the dragon.
Valadhiel and the others were hesitant at first. But then they nodded and ran for the castle's gates, the gates ahead of them appear to be closing!
But it's now or never, Valadhiel, Adam, Nami, and NightFall makes a run for the gates, they barely made it through in time before the gates completely slam shut to the ground.
"Will they be alright?" NightFall asked anxiously.
" Let's hope so..." Valadhiel replied, although she was also anxious when she got an odd but terrifying vision as she gasped and felt an invisible force go through her flesh and toward her heart.

He laughed some more and disappears in shadow, away from sight for he is gone for the time being until the next encounter.
Rancor stomps it's feet onto the ground, causing the earth to rumble once more, making it difficult for Allura and Leon to move around, the reason Allura cannot fly at this time is because she lost her wings to the monster that stood before them now when she descended upon this world on the mission to defeat Ortherion when she encountered this damned gargoyle!

Just as Rancor the flying stone giant was about to attack with it's spear, a yell is heard and a sword made of hard stone, the size of a long sword, flew into Rancor, knocking off the spear it held into the great distance from the field.
Confused, Leon and Allura looked to where the sword came flying from, it turns out to be a man, he wore brown leather shorts and shirt, he wore brown sandals at the time, he has brown hair and serious brown eyes. He also has tanned skin, from the looks of this, he looks to be a mere salesman, but if one were to look closely, there are tiny bits of turf flying around him.
Rancor turned to him and roared, the man roared back. " I, Stone Falls will not stand idle of this fight, I will see to it that you fall by my hands!!"
Just as he finished speaking, the gargoyle tries to crush him with one of it's hands but he dodged at the right moment, another earthquake occurred, but he doesn't seem to be affected by it.
He summoned boulders that are nearly the size of a house and threw them at the gargoyle's feet, damaging it and rendering it immobile for a short time.
Stone looks upon Leon and Allura and spoke to them.
" Do you need assistance? " He asked.
Leon shook his head. " Does it look like we don't need any?!"
" I take that as a yes." Stone replied calmly as he turned towards Rancor who's struggling to break the boulders that held down it's feet.
"Stone Falls, thank you very much." Allura spoke suddenly.
" Have no mention of it. " Stone said. "I'm a very powerful Earth Mage although I don't look of it. "
Rancor has finally broken out of it's prison and roars much more louder then before, it prepares to fight as Stone summons more boulders and Leon brings out the flames from his hands, and Allura prepares to use her magic power.

Now Hibiki and Sora know that they are not safe in the hospital anymore, they have to either get out of the hospital or remain in their room, like the announcement had said. But how would they get out of the hospital? Sora's still recovering from his injuries and it could take a while for them to get away from the hospital.
No, trying to escape from the hospital is out of the question, that would lead to their demise.
" Hibiki." Sora said. " Maybe we should stay in the room to be safe. "
" Are you sure? " Hibiki said to Sora as she turned to look at him, she was worried.
"I am sure, if anyone breaks in here, I could get them away." Sora replied honestly.
"But your still healing, I want to protect you and prevent you from getting hurt. " Hibiki said to Sora, she looked even more worried.
" ..... " Sora was silent for a moment then he finally spoke. " Alright, I'm counting on you. " He said to Hibiki.
" You trust me? " Hibiki was surprised but spoke.
"Of course I trust you. " Sora answered honestly.
However, soon, an unfamiliar noise was heard, like a portal was opened, and then closing, the room stopped glowing in red from the alarm and the alarm was shut off, as another announcement was heard.
" THE INTRUDER HAS ESCAPED, REPEAT, THE INTRUDER HAS ESCAPED,THE POLICE WILL BE LOOKING FOR THE INTRUDER IN THE MORNING! YOU MAY RETURN TO WHAT YOU WERE DOING! "
Hibiki and Sora looked at each other with confusion.
"....What was that about?" They thought in confusion.
Hibiki got back onto her bed as Sora laid down on his bed, carefully.
" I think we should get some sleep. " Sora yawned.
" Alright. " Hibiki agreed as she pulled the covers over her.
And the both of them went into a deep sleep.
~~In Hibiki's dream~~
Hibiki was talking with her guardian sister, Alice , who spoke to her in the dream with a smile as the both of them were in a park sitting on a bench.
"From what I've known, friends are our power, as long as we kept each other in our hearts, we'll never be apart. "
Hibiki smiled in her dream as she hugged her.
~~In Sora's dream~~
He was practicing with his skills of water bending, when his friend Alice was sitting on the grass watching him, she was fascinated as she smiled, eventually Sora stopped practicing and looked at Alice.
For some time, he had felt like a third father to her.
" Want to go back inside for dinner? " He grinned.
" Yeah!" Alice smiled. "Do you mind if I bring my sister over? " She asked.
" Sure, I don't mind. " He answered.
~~End of double dream~~
Sora was awakened by a loud thumping sound, the sound of loud footsteps approaching him in the room.
Sora opened his eyes slowly since he was very tired, he opened his eyes fully and was surprised to see how dark the room looks as he could barely see in the dark.
As his eyes adjusted to the darkness of the room, he manage to see a shadowy figure stand next to his bed, the figure towers over him and gives off a threatening aura, holding a sharp object in it's dark hand.
"W-Who are you? " Sora asked, his throat still clogged with sleep.
The figure doesn't answer, in fact, the figure looked down at him, it's aura grew more threatening, it slowly began to raise the object in it's hand high up, over Sora's head, it was a knife!
Sora's eyes widened as the figure prepares to slam the knife down on him, he glances at Hibiki, she had just began to open her eyes, and then Sora glanced at the figure again, it hesitated at first, Hibiki woke up completely, and saw the scene happening as she gasped.
"S-Sora!" Hibiki exclaimed.
The figure saw Hibiki wide awake, and slowly began to walk toward her, the knife in hand.
What shall Hibiki and Sora do? A choice must be made or there will be a price to pay!

Nice work! You're definitely getting better!
The only thing I have to suggest is to try to keep in one tense for your verbs; you sometimes seem to go back and forth between present tense and past tense.
I can't wait to read more!^^
