[ location old dark world ]

-

The outcast took to the sky and flew in the directions of one of Void's fortresses, as he flew the dark land below him was crawling will corrupted creatures of so many different species over countless centuries of Soledormir Reign of Terror.

-

Judas eyes had been gold ever since arriving to this world Light had long forgotten, soon A massive sinister Fortress came into view, Void may have been running it now but it ones belong to Soledormir before he was imprisoned. // By the size of it, the walls have to be at least 15 or more feet thick, it would take to long to get through that way unless I make an an explosion, but that would kinda defeat the purpose of stealth mission// he looked for a place to land and did, Judas walk over to a window with rods guarding it, he summon a blade and chanted as he slowly cut the rods off, the outcast dispelled his weapon and then place a hand on the window as he used his free hand to make a display of magic in the form of a small screen, Judas swiftly moved his fingers across the display " like I thought...this place has some pretty nasty magic barriers on it...I think I can get in without setting anything off...." he said with a goofy look "I hope"

-

The outcast managed to get the window open without it blowing up or doing anything else dangerous, he chanted a spell to hide his appearance and Magic, Judas appearance darkened and he faded into the Shadows becoming almost invisible to the untrained eye. He then snuck into the Fortress quietly.

-

Judas was on high alert, he wasn't supposed to be there and he was putting a lot on the line in attempting to do what he was there to do, and that even if the kid was there in the first place, but Judas was willing to make that gamble. The outcast stay away from any dark matter in the hallways, he knew touching any of the strange black substance would alert Void and ether his shades would come out of it or they would pull what whatever into the void... Judas move quietly and swiftly he lived long enough under Soledormir ruling to know how to avoid most of the monsters he come across.

-

The Vaseterm froze when he heard the sounds of children laughing, Judas knew what that was, he slow his breathing and didn't move a muscle. Soon the tapping of claws came from above, only his eyes look up to see two Akuma above him. The Beast know as Soledormirs guard dogs crawled across the ceiling and we're chattering in the dark language { littlesss Dragonette screamsss, littlesss Dragonette screamsss, hehehesss } one of them hiss giddy. The other Akuma stop and look right in Judas's Direction, the points on its head vibrated as it sniff the air, the outcast didn't move he knew the Akuma hunted by movement, sound, and sense of smell, the spell Judas used hide his smell and as long as he didn't move, to the Akuma he was invisible. The Beast soon lost interest and look to the other and mimicked Crimson's painful screams, and then both of them made creepy laughing sounds.

-

// The boy is here then... just we're at? // Judas thought as he listens to the two Akuma chattering and creepy laughter's fade as they continued on.

Ones the Coast was clear The outcast quietly ruffled his wings and continued on, time was against him and he had a Fortress the size of a giant City too search and that was only by looking from the outside, he didn't even know just how deep down the Fortress went. Judas pick up bits and pieces of information as he snuck around the patrols of dark creatures. // That shouldn't have been a surprise, of course he be in the lower level in a well secure place and been tortured, it's not like Sol holds grudges for what the kings did to him//
-

With the information he had Judas went deeper into the Fortress, it became so dark that even his Vaseterm eyes could no longer see. The outcast had no choice but to tape into his red Demon side more, something he didn't like to do because it only made Killy more hungry. Judas war paint truned a more reddish purple, his sclera became black as his irises turned red, his surroundings became black and white with variances of Gray, sacrificing seen colors for the ability to see in the darkest places.

-

The scenery grew even more sinister, the walls were embedded with bodies of humans, griffins, dragons and species he didn't even know, they all look to be terrifying or in pain, as he continue deeper the walls oozed with corruption.// Scary stuff and more scary stuff, yep!, this is the right way// his best friend was the king of Nightmares and being a slave to Soledormir This was nothing new to Judas, he seen this kind of stuff all before but that didn't mean it still didn't creep him out a little.

The air got suddenly cold, Goosebumps raised on Judas's arms and his feathers puffed out in alarm at Sinister sensation, Something evil was coming, the outcast quickly looked at his surroundings and noticed a Twisted Bean above, with a pump up his wings he got up on the Bean and perch there quietly waiting. The clicking of heavy footsteps and rattling chains draw closer, the Vaseterm heart pounded in his ears at what he seen coming...

-
A shadowy abomination made of bones and Darkness, it's was covered with Sharp blades and dragging chains behind it, but the Beast was missing it's left arm... This was Doomardsod, the king of all Reapers, he was one of two monstrosity that guarded Soledormir's throne, the other Beast was the Abyss...

-

Judas hadn't seen Doomardsod since Soledormir was sealed away and the chaos kings Fortress collapsed in the Shadow Realm // so this is we're you been...// He thought nervously, Countless Lives who stood against Soledormir met their end to this ancient monster, as the Abyss was used to corrupt life, Doomardsod was used to end life.

-

Soledormir would send this monstrosity to hunt down special targets, one of them was Faithful Dreamer, however a battle with the Dreamer twins cost Doomardsod his arm by Faolan Dream.

-

Judas let out a nervous breath when Doomardsod was no longer in site, his wings quivered with his nervousness. The outcast didn't want to linger here any longer knowing the king of Reapers was stalking the Halls, he shuttered wondering if the Abyss was here to // one big baddy bad enough, I'm not sticking around to find out if the other here to, no way no how!//

-

Judas hop down and continued on, he knew had to be close and with this much of Soledormir guard dogs roaming the Halls, he knew it wasn't a good sign.

He could see that the hallway ended with a large spooky sinister looking door, he slowly to a stop and grimace seen what was guarding it, two Wraiths, they we're smaller creatures that only stood about 8 feet tall and had a body shape like an ape, just with no hair, the pale looking creatures didn't look that heavily-armed or armor and they were blind, but that wasn't there purpose, the Wraiths had extremely good hearing but their gills like fins along there body we're what made Judas worry, the gills vibrated picking up on even the most hidden Magic in the area, including the spell Judas used to hid his magic presence in the first place and he knew it.

-
// Just graet! The tattle tellers, what would I give to at least be able to summon a bow right now// Judas thought frustrated, he took off his gloves and summoned a black chaos dagger, he was keeping from using any weapons made of light because it would draw the nearby dark creatures to It Like Moths To The Flame.

-

Judas rolled the dagger around his wrist before talking it by the blade and chucking it like a throwing knife. * Insert battle music here *
He then zip forward with incredible speed.

-

The black dagger Struck One of the Wraiths in the head and the other truned to face the it, sensing something has happened, but it sense a magic presents coming fast at it, the creature turned it head to Judas as it draw in a breath to Screech to alarm the Fortress, but before it could Screech Judas jump with a twist and kick the Wraith in the head with such force it broke it's jaw, the outcast feet touch the ground and in the same movement he pulled his dagger out of the other Wraith head, Judas then twirl the dagger as he pivoted back to the broken jaw Wraiths and thrusted his blade up though it's mouth and into it's head.

-

Judas then stood up and put a hand on his hip as he look at sinister door " that a really big door" he said casually as both Wraiths fell over dead behind him

-

Judas raised his hand and made ring form, he examined the door, " hmmm, let's see if this will work..." He mumbled, then took his thumb and cut it on his fangs, he then started to draw symbols on the door with his own blood, one he was done Judas place both bare hands on the door and began to chanting quietly, his markings truned red and the chaos gemstones on his arms glow, the area where he wrote at the symbols and his touch of his hands begin to disintegrate, Judas continued until he completely melted thought the door, the outcast took a few breath one he was done and rubbed the gemstones on his arms, a normal red Demon chaos touch didn't affect non-organic things but Judas could if he push himself, but he gained no energy from non living things and that would only make Killy more hungry.

The outcast put his gloves back on and interred the room, Judas eyes widened with horror in what he seen inside, it was clear that the large room was an evil lab, there was tables and Wicked looking devices for holding creatures of various of sizes, but most look to be for bigger things like Dragons, old Blood and residue of corruption Staind the floor and walls, Judas shuttered and look back to the hole that he came through and on what was left of the door was claw marks and messages saying ' help '
-

The outcast swallowed as he walked further in the room, Judas didn't like labs for many reasons...most of his memories of them were not good one, if it was the one he grew up in or the labs Sol used like this one, the only one he could say he had funny memories of was trolling Shoji lab.

A wall with dark Magic symbols caught Judas's attention, he walked over to it // it's some kind of spell of something...but this...// He tapped one of the symbols and the wall oozed with dark Magic to we're the entire wall was covered in it, spooky letters stared to form in Soledormir language. The outcast slowly shook his head in Pierre disgust and horror " It's a list of worlds he claims...." He whispered as he watched names form and fades away been replaced by more names, Judas frowned noticing something, some names were in red which he thought was weird because he should be color blind right now, it didn't take long for the outcast to realize the names in red we're worlds with blood moons now, he also noticed not a single human world had a blood moon, or at least he could tell, there was a ton of names he never heard of and we're taking long before his time // there a pattern here.... he was selecting certain worlds to Harvest but why? What are you up to Sol?// Judas froze when his home world formed, it wasn't in red but a odd symbol was next to it, he noticed a few other names earlier with the same symbol next to them // what does that mean? //
The list of names stop on one particular name Judas knew, and it was written in bold letters ' THE LAND OF DREAMS' the last world Soledormir try to claim before he was sealed away // it's the next one you want but your not going to take it! the key Hunters will stop you before you even get your claws into it! And you won't even need a stupid list because you be dead! // he tighten his fists at his sides.

-
Judas shook his head and walk away, he was there for a reason, the outcast navigated himself though the Twisted Laboratory, he didn't have to see a vision to know what evil was committed in this place.

he outcast notice grooves of corruption in the walls and ceiling flowing in one Direction and he followed it to a staircase going down, as Judas stared down into the dark abyss, it gave him a creepy sensation the hair on the back of his neck raised it up and Goosebumps formed on his arms. // Down into a dark creepy hole...why can't the bad guys ever have stuff in bright sunny places? But Noooooo // he shivered and Venture down the stairs.

-

The walls had more body's encased in it with corruption all flowing down, " Judas..." The outcast thought he heard something whisper his name and when he turned to look nothing was there but he felt something grab his arm, and when he looked back he squeaked, seen one of the Corpses in the wall had hold of his arm //CREEPY! VERY CREEPY!!// he jerked his arm away from the creature only to have one behind him grab one of his wings, Judas stared to panic as the walls were trying to grab him that he completely forgot he was on the stairs, the outcast pull away from the creatures grip but lost his footing and Tumble down the stairs and letting out a girly screams the entire time down...

-

The outcast collided into the bottom floor. " "Aah owww!" He mound, Judas sat up and rubbed his injured arm that Mal bite in the fight "ouchy ouch, that still tender " the outcast flinched when a painful monsters screams filled the air, he truned to look at what did it and he froze with horror at what he seen.

-

The room was massive, at least the size of a Sanctum, the sealing swirled with dark magic as chains with black lanterns suede creepy, dark symbols and markings all leading in Incline to the center of the room, all the correction from earlier were flowing to this Central spot...and at the heart was Crimson, he have strange sinister looking chains embedded into his hide, the chains led to dark crystals on pedestals and from those the chains led to four war horse size statues, Judas wasn't sure what these monsters creatures were but they did look similar to Reapers...the outcast skin felt like it was crawling and he shattered // this is some serious bad Magic going on...// Judas cautiously made his way towards the center of the room, his golden eyes keep glace around, he couldn't shake the feeling that the statues were watched him or at least something was. As Judas draw closer he realize the markings in the floor made a skeleton design and that when it occurred to him // is...is this the birthplace of the Reapers? But Sol was the only one who could make them and he locked up... I mean I know Shoji tried but even she couldn't get them right and she Shoji....What are you trying to do Hunter?...//
-

Judas made it to the Dragonette, he was partially submerged in the corruption, a dark energy flow from the crystals down the chains and Crimson body heaved as he screamed with a distorted sounds. Judas grimace he couldn't stand it, "I'm goning to get you out of here kid" he summoned a black blade and swing it to cut the chains, but on contact his sword shattered // what the heck?!!// Crimson screamed again, Judas mind was racing // dark to dark isn't working // he thought of something Faithful said ' Darkness may same overpowering, it consumes and destroys, and it's easy to give into to this power....it gives the illusion that it can not be defeated but there something the Darkness doesn't want anyone to know... Darkness fears the /light/... It fears the light because /Light can defeat it/ '

-

" Alright let's Light things up!" Judas summon his Chakrams, they shine with a bright light Illuminating the area around him, the room itself shrieked with fear and unnatural Shadows slipped away to hide in the Darkness. The Vaseterm used his Chakrams and they cut though the chains like warm butter, freeing the little Dragonette.

Judas put away his blades and pick up Crimson, the Vaseterm made himself glow bright and the little Dragonette made a painful sounds and dug his claws into Judas, but the outcast ignored it, he knew Crimson was in pain and the Darkness didn't like his light.

-
The Vaseterm pumped his wings and shot across the room like a comet in the night, he flew up the stairway and the bodies in the walls shrieked and hide their faces from the light. Judas stopped in the lab when he heard Doomardsod sinistar Roar and then a chorus of monster screams, howls and roars followed " well...here comes the welcome party...haha..oh boy" Judas gave a nervous chuckle and look around the room " come on every evil lair has a back door!" he thinks out loud, in his search Judas found a black pool, the circle on the ground symbols around it " ugh...I was really hoping it wouldn't have been one of those back doors..." He complained, but the sound of monsters draw closer.
-
"Ok but it's time for you to hold your breath" Judas said and put a hand over Crimson snout forcing the Dragonette to hold his breath, the Vaseterm took a breath a and hop into the pool of the black substance and was pulled under....

-

[ Unknown location...]

-

Judas held on to Crimson's as they floated thought the Darkness, it was similar to been in the deep dark place of the ocean except there was no water. This was a Realm between Realms, a space between Worlds that dark creatures use to travel through Shadows. It was a strange dark place, clouds of dark energy swirled with with flashes of black Light searching through them.

Judas drifted with Crimson, he didn't have to use his wings, things like time and space had little meaning here, the outcast was focused on a certain location and was looking for something, brakes in the Darkness we're little bit of light filtered through, even though it look like the light was coming from nothing. this was an exit point, and ones were day light was at from the outside world. // There it is // the outcast move to the rift, but the sounds of voices whispering caught Judas's attention, he looked out into the void of his dark surroundings // I wasn't expecting her to find us so soon... This isn't good...// a long body creature was weaving itself though the the black energy clouds, chains flow off her and the ends of them look like black smoke, as the creature draw closer the Whispers became louder. Judas look back to the rift and put his hand on it, as soon as he did the outcast was pulled though along with Crimson.

-

[ In some random world ]

Judas had his wing folded around himself and Crimson as the two fell out of a shadow on a wall. The outcast landed with a thud on the ground, he gritted his teeth and cover his from the bright light " ahhh! My eyes! I'm blinded by the light!! To bright! To Bright!" Judas forgot he was still using his red Demon site and been in a dark place so long didn't help ether, he gold over and set opening his wings to provide shade as he return to more of his normal eyesight " I see spots! " He blank and squinting his eyes trying to adjust to the day light. Judas shattered thinking of the dark place between place " ugh, how can Nightmares stand that" The outcast complained, he was referring to a Nightmare 'shadow jump' were they move through Shadows and even teleport with them, but a Nightmare usually move to fast to even realize that strange dark place. Crimson took deep breaths but he wasn't sounding to good, the outcast grimace " let's get you some place else " he then open his wings and teleported, Judas wasn't the only one who could track a teleport, so to make sure no one could follow, he teleported to a few different other worlds before returning to his home. 
-

[ Omen's Palace]

-

The outcast arrived on a balcony to his Palace, he rushed inside, the doors open on there own as Judas hurried to the Infirmary.

-

Meknee had been wandering around the quiet Palace, her ears perked up hearing sounds something there now and she went to investigate. 
-

Judas made it to his Infirmary, he placed Crimson down on a special table. The ones red dragon was mostly black now, over half his one blue gemstones we're now red. the corruption was quickly spreading thought the little Dragonette body, twisting and disfiguring the infected areas. Crimson was making sickly gasping sounds as his disfigured paws clawed on the table.

-

" Crimson!" Meknee screamed running over to the table, she look up at the wing man " what happening to him?!" She asked terrified.

-

" corruption is taking over his body " Judas said as he rushed over to a device on a table next to the wall, he took off one of his arms bands and put it in the device, the room came to life with sounds of equipment and Lights. A display made of Magic form. The outcast quickly moved its fingers across the screen and the table Crimson was on light up with markings and symbols.

-

Judas then rush over to the table the Dragonette was on, he took off his other arm band and place it in a device attached to the table, magic rings appeared around Crimson and the Vaseterm move his hand over one of the rings making a display appear with a magic hologram of Crimson's body and the place the corruption was at.

-
The Air-Rue was frightened and amazed, she never seen a room with so many pretty light before but her friend was dying, she felt helpless but wanted to do something " how is this helping? Is there anything I can do?"

Judas eyes scanned the display and the other screens and was reading what they said, // this is some serious corruption, it's moving way to fast to be a Nightmares without the Barb's still in him and it's to different then the Abyss corruptions it's too fast and it's not turning his Magic against him... it's completely changing it...//
he quickly ran over to a storage compartment and open it, he took out a vial of glowing liquid and cloes the door and ran back to Crimson table, he pulled open a drawer at took out a syringe and put the glowing liquid to it " my kind the Vaseterm, back in the days of my people's Prime, we knew how to mix Magic and science, I'm trying to stop the spread of his corruption if I can " he explained and took the syringe and injecting its contents into Crimson's chest, the little Dragonette let out a distorted scream.
The outcast grimace at the Dragonette cries he tried to move faster, taking his fingers across the Magic display over Crimson " I'm trying to put up seals to stop the corruption by hacking into Crimson's Magic." He said and then added "if you like to help try taking to him "

-

" You seem to know a lot about this stuff?" Meknee she mentioned to the wing man and then nodded at him when he said how she could help. She moved over to Crimson head and forced a smile " Crimson it's me Meknee your friend, w-e're going to figure this out, your going to get through this just hang on, Crim"
-

Crimson face was twisted with a painful look, black tear stained his face as he slowly opened his eyes, they glow with a red creepy Light, " ....Mek?...M-eknee...I h-urt... E-verything hurtsss.... " He struggled to speak his voice was distorted and full of pain " .... I-'m scared.... I'm scared Meknee...."
Meknee couldn't stand it, she took her paws and cup them around one of her friends twisted paws, Crimson touch felt icy cold but it burned like fire, the Air-Rue grimace but didn't pull away from the pain she wanted to be there for Crimson " your going to be okay Crim, your going to be ok" she repeated with tears streaming down her face, she then looked up at the wing man hoping he could stop this from killing her friend.

-

Betta sweat we're on Judas's brow as he worked,
the pressure was really on him " I have experience with corruption..." He wasn't going to mention that he himself was corrupted, he had the son of Soledormir in him and not to mention his chaos touch was also a form of corruption " I spent a lot of time around it but I learned the most from a vampiric Nethersglade who taught me a few tricks on how to deal with some types of corruption "
The Outcast continue to place seals but they didn't last long, " what the heck? Why isn't this working?! " He thinks out loud frustrated // everything im throwing at it, the corruption is just breaking it down! These aren't just low seal either it's busting down the big guns like they we're done by a rookie! //
-

Placing seal had a level system with the Vaseterm, it was common for them to use simple seal that we're level 1 to 2, a seal that was 3 was something to brag about, 4 you got some Talent, 5 you were gifted, 6 was almost unheard of in present day, and anything up to 10 was considered a myth But back in Deluna's Prime it was possible for a level 10 seal but that was before Soledormir sabotage the Vaseterm Magic system roughly 30 thousand years ago and any silverbloods born after the sabotage their magic would be compromise but Judas came before that and was genetic engineering to be more advance and with the knowledge Shoji show him the outcast was doing level 15 seal and now was tempting 17 and greater, but it was barely slowing down the corruption // if this keeps up the corruption will Consume the kid in the next hour // Judas thought panic

Judas mind was racing " this isn't working time to change tactics " he then was moving his hands over the magic display, he was looking for something Pacific, the seal that keep him from seen Crimson in visions, it didn't take the outcast long to find what he was searching for, it was a red symbol on the display " well at least the corruption has weekend it, it be a lot easier to break now" he rambled to himself, after messing with the magic screen, Judas took his hand and grabbed the red symbol and crushed it, breaking the seal.
// Ok now show me what can save Crimson life// The Vaseterm focus on what he wanted to see, his eyes truned silver as the vision started.

-

[ In the vision ]

Judas found himself surrounded by Darkness and corruption, it swirled like treacherous storm around a single spot, Crimson look older but he was completely covered in a black substance that only his head could be seen, he look sick and there was no hope in his eyes. the Darkness hung over the red dragon looking like a menacing monster.

the outcast grimace and raising arm to Shield his face, he wasn't a Dreamer but even he could feel what ever this/ thing/ was, was flowing with dark hate, rage and bitterness. // Just what the heck is this thing?!// He looked at Crimson and felt helpless // well find something to get you out of this...//
-

Crimson look up as a group of star shot across the sky, he try to move a paw to reach out to them, a look of longing was on his sad face but the corruption pull him back and held him in place.

-

Judas knew vision came in different ways, expecially the one about the future, this one appeared to be like a riddle, showing symbolism to describe a possibilities future or outcome. Judas had enough experience in visions to be able to decipher what was been shown// Those stars are the candidates...and by Crimson looks, he wants to go with them but can't...// The outcast continued to watch the vision play out.

-

Crimson was staring we're the stars settled and they too shape of the candidates silhouettes. The red dragon look of longing truned to one of anger and bitterness, he roared at them with rage, the dark creature grew bigger, the corruption moved across Crimsons head and complete covered his right side of his face. // That thing feeding on his angry... but Is there nothing that can be done?!
is that it?! He just going be swallowed up by that thing?! //Judas clenched his fist, he was mad he couldn't do more // there has to be more! There always more! Now show me!//
-

A song filled the air, the beautiful Melody of a females voice come from one of the silhouette. Crimson ears perked up with the sound, a Spark of hope was in his one visible eye, he try to pull away from the Darkness holding him, but he couldn't " Crystal!! " The dragon called out. Crimson glow as his form changed, he shifted from a dragon to a human form, he thrashed with determination trying to get free, surprisingly the corruption grip loosened and Crimson was pulling away from it.

-

Judas put a hand to his chin as he was watching and heard the song // I heard that song before... And Im pretty sure who that is, I bet Mal shoes on it// and when Crimson shouted her name // yep! I thought so! Hahaha Mal shoes are mine now! // The outcast grinned. Judas eyes widened when Crimson shifted // I didn't know he has a human form, not to many Crystal-gem have human forms, what was it again? Only like quarter of them can? but I'm pretty sure he a half Blood so maybe that why// Judas mind rambled, he rised a brow when the shapeshifter was kinda been able to pull away from the Darkness // it doesn't seem to have as good of a hold on him in his human form...but now that I think about it, if Hunter was trying to make Crimson's a Reaper and by what I can remember there Dragons but I don't think they can shift or at least I never seen a Reaper with a human form.// He thought trying to figure out the puzzle, Judas then looked to the human girl silhouette and then back to the Crimson,// he really determined now...// The Wheels were turning in Judas's head, he knew the key Hunters were a big part of Crimson's future, expecially Crystals but right now they we're just kids or they young adults, they couldn't help Crimson now and he didn't have a lot of time left.

-

 out, Crimson pulled against the Darkness holding him, he reached out of hand towards the candidates and then four moons appeared in the sky around him, a Crescent Moon, a full moon, a half moon and a eclipse , a drop of Light fell from the center of the sky between the moons and it landed on the dragon shapeshifter wrist, it splashed at first then Light up like dazzling White Fire, it then truned and formed into silver bracelets... Shackles of light formed on the corruption like monster holding it in place. The Monster let out a loud demonic Roar. 
-

Judas had his hand on his hip with a deep thinking face // those four moons are the symbol of the land of dreams and that White Fire...// The outcast eyes widened // oh...OH! I KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW!//

The vision faded and Judas blinked a few times "I KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW!!" he shouted excitedly,
Meknee jump at that, she look at the wing man in shock " what just happened? You know how to help Crimson now?!"
Judas nodded his head " yeah! I had a vision and I know what to do now! " He then looked to the little Dragonette " I need him shift to his human form and I think the corruption will slow down then "
-

Meknee shook her head frantically " C-rimson doesn't have a human form, he just a dragon"
" WHAT?! What do you mean he doesn't have a human form?! I seen it with my own two eyes!" Judas point at his own eyes.

Meknee Wings fluttered " I don't know what you seen but I'm telling you he doesn't have a human form!, He never has! No one in his family has a human form!"

-

Judas threw up his hands " well I can't give him a human form! If I could give other people new forms I would have truned Mal into a koala or a platypus years ago! " he said frantically, *light bulb* the Vaseterm then remembered something " what I know! Your an Air-Rue! Can't your kind copy and gift forms? " He asked, and then remembered about the cost of doing it though...

Meknee look at Crimson her ears lead back " I never gift a form before and I..."

" You could lose your Magic"Judas finished her sentence with a sympathetic tone, he then looked to the Dragonette " it's just Crimson will died without a human form...I know this is a hard choice and I would do it if I could, but I can't...I can lend you as much of my energy as you need, but you still might have to pay the price "

Meknee look at Crimson, it didn't take her long to decide " I'm going to try" she said and look back to the wing man " I just don't know if I'm strong enough..."

-
Judas knew this was going to be hard on the pup but she didn't have to do it alone. He gave her soft smile. " we can do this together " Judas said and walk over to the Air-Rue and put out a hand
-

Meknee was nervous but she had to do this for her friend, she took a deep breath and then place a paw on the wing man arm we're his skin was, she then place her other paw on Crimson and cloesed her eyes, she focused on drawing energy from the wing man and copying the form of humanoid, she glow with her Magic and began to howl, the howl had a beautiful sound to it and she howled with a rhythm making the air full of songs.

Crimson gasp as he began to glow, his claws dug at the table leaving gash marks.

-

The Air-Rue continue to howl channeling her Magic to the Dragonette. Crimson let out a horrible Monster sounds, his claws slowly began to change into more human hands, Meknee was already feeling the weight of her spell and hearing her friend painful screams wasn't helping her, but she keep going when the wing man said " don't stop, it's working! Your doing it! " The
Air-Rue push herself and keep going, Crimson's body slow truned from a dragon to little White hair boy but he still had some Dragon appearance, he had tiny horns and gemstones on his body and a pear of small White wings...

Meknee legs felt weak and she fell backwards but Judas caught her and set the Air-rue down gently " you did good Meknee, you did good " the outcast said with a warm smile " I'll take it from here, you just rest "
Meknee nodded and just sat there to tried to move, she could tell something was different about herself // is it just because I'm tried or am I?... I don't have enough energy to try... but if it keeps Crimson alive that all that matters...//

-

Judas flexed his fingers as he moved back to the table with Crimson on it, the Air-rue took quite a bit of energy but the outcast was practically a living battery and he tend to jump back pretty quickly. Judas move his hands across the Magic display. Crimson's body still had corruption in it but it wasn't moving as fast now and Judas was able to place a few seals that were holding " this is much better, He went from being dead within the hour to maybe lasting a week give or take a few days " he breathe out released. " That should give us plenty of time to get the bracelets made " he thinks out loud with a grin but it soon fades when he realized Killy wouldn't be sleeping to much longer and that would be bad //how are we going to do this now? I can't go to Emilia Forge Killy will rat me out and I'm pretty sure there not going let one of Soledormir minions just walk up and use there Forge // though irritatedly and rubbed the back of his head // ugh, this is so Stoopid!! I hate how the good guys think I'm a bad guy! when I'm trying to help the good guys but then again I am a bad guy because I have to do the bad stuff Sol say when I rather do the good stuff, but because I do the bad stuff the good guys think I'm bad!// Judas was irritated he walked over to the wall and started to banging his head against it " think! Think! "

Crimson was asleep now that he wasn't in constant pain anymore, the seals we're holding steady for the time being.

-

Meknee tip her head when the wing man started to bang his head " are you ok?" She asked worried

-

Judas had his head against the wall, he truned to look at the Air-rue " I'm trying to think about how to get the magic bracelets for Crimson when I can't get them myself"

-
" magic bracelets? "The pup repeats " why can't you go get them?"

-

Judas let out a long sigh " it's a long and complicated story...." One he wasn't supposed to talk about " but basically I'm not allowed there, it's just a place I shouldn't go, but Crimson needs those bracelets to hold back his corruption, his human form and my seals won't last forever ".

-

Meknee listen to the wing man, // a place he can't go, but Crimson needs those bracelets...// She thought about what he said and came up with an idea " how about I go?"

-

Judas blinked, he didn't think about that, but he knew what would have to happen if she went " you can go but if you do, you won't be able to see Crimson again until his corruption gone..."
-

Meknee eyes widened " what?! Why?! Why couldn't I see him again?!"

-

Judas finally moved his head off the wall and stood up right " why is because the bracelets have to be made from Emilia Forge, I'm sure you know at least some stuff about the kings of old and there keys? This Forge is we're the keys were made and it's a really big Secret we're it is, because the bad guys that did this to your friend will want to destroy it or turn it for their own evil ways "

-

The Air-rue maw was wide open in hearing about the great kings and the Forge, she heard story about them " wow! It really exist and you know we're it is?" She thought about the rest of what the wing man said, and thought hard on it " I understand, if it will save Crimson life I as a king guard I will protect the Secret of Forge"

-

Judas nodded " that great! He then rubbed the back of his head " well I kinda know we're it /might/ be... I never been there but I know it's in the 'land of dreams' in the ' islands of Luce' you have to ask the grumpy fire Elementals around there the secret password ' nick nack Patty wack give a dog a bone' " he said with a goofy grin.

Meknee listening to him intensely until he said the password and then she just blinked " really? That the password?"

Judas couldn't help but laugh, he waved a hand " no, no it's not but I seen an opportunity and seized it" he chuckled with tears in his eyes, the outcast wipe his cheek and cleared his throat " ok, all jokes aside, it's 'the ten stars fall inline, will seek the moons heart divine~' " he hummed " and then if they reply back saying ' a spark of hope can Light the darkest of hours' and they know we're the Forge is" the outcast smile and then gave a goofy look " oh! Just be careful fire Elementals can be a bit hot headed and they tend to get fire up when others snoop around there territory " he said rubbing the back of his head " uhhh, you could probably ask any obsidian Dreamers you see there the password to and if they know the reply back, then there probably obsidian keepers, they will likely be a lot more nice when you ask"

Meknee listen to what the wing man said and memorize the password and the info " ok, I think I got it.." she said and look over at Crimson, the Air-rue ear dropped looking sad

-

Judas noticed the Air-rue expression, he walked over to a the table with the device against the wall and took out his arm band and put it back on, he then walked over to Meknee and kneel down and gave her a soft smile " I know you mess your friend...I know just how hard it is to want to be around a friend but you can't" he said sympathetically, Judas whole life wanting friends but couldn't have any or they get hurt " but it won't last forever, the candidates will stop Soledormir and your friend will be free " the outcast smile "we just have to be patient and do what we can " Judas then looked over at Crimson " you don't have to go right now, your still recovering and need rest, I'll make us some mac and cheese, it's help, and Crimson vitals are holding steady now, you should spend some time with him before you go" the outcast suggested and got up, he checked on Crimson one last time before leaving the room to go make mac and cheese.
