"Kelanthara, if you are feeling better you might want to prepare yourself." she said in a very serious manner. "The Phantoms are coming."

Keleanthra got really scared she had witnessed her own village destroyed by phantoms and she did not know how to use the powers that the pandora was suppose to lend her. She had gone pale white hearing the word phantom.

The sky began to storm. It was preparing for this moment and now it was time. From out the sky, Phantoms began to drop in large numbers.
There was one in particular that was different from the others. He was a specter, but a different breed of such, he still had his normal Elven appearance, though his eyes were darkened purple and there were also stripes on each side of his face the started from the lower portion of his eyes down to the bottom of his cheeks. He wielded a large great sword, one he was able to swing without a care. His very presence was sinister.
He held up his sword and cut through the air, a large energy shock wave cut through portions of the forest and collided with the barrier that protected the village from attacks, shattering it on impact.
On his signal, a swarm of phantoms stormed the village. Though startled, the village was able to drop their things and begin to fight. The women and children were being evacuated, the men and village Maiden went on to combat the Phantom threat. They weren't entirely defenseless towards attack, but they would need the aid of the Water Pandora and her vessel to win without too many casualties involved.

El jumped up as the barrier dropped, cursing. "I'm so stupid." she said. She expected Phantoms, but not of this caliber. "Kelanthara, I need your help protecting the villagers. If you can, touch your mark and see if your spirit will talk to you. I will meet you out there" she said gestering outside.
Meanwhile El changed. Her whole entire body seemed to be covered in water. Her hair was like the waves and it flowed behind her. Such was the effects of becoming a personal vessel.
El opened the door, whip already forming in her hand. She new she could leave Kela alone, as in experienced as she was, but she could take out as many of the attacker as possible from here. With a flick of her wrist, the whip flew threw the air taking out the nearest phantom with it's icy tip.

The phantom faded away on impact. None of them were strong enough to take on a Marked one as strong as her. Their commander knew that well, so he used sheer numbers instead. He ordered them to converge on El. She could only attack so many at once. The commander could sense that there was another weaker Pandora nearby and decided to seek it out for himself.
He changed as well, his body appeared fully cloaked in darkness. Like comet he flew through the sky, searching for the other Pandora and it's vessel. This commander was like no other in the Phantom's forces, his name was Rolas.

El tried to fight them off. How had some many gather together? It was then that she noticed the dark streak across the sky. A spector. It had to be. She curse, flinging the whip out to take out as many of the phantoms trying to surround her as possible.
She had to dodge as one's claws came too close. She flicked her wrist again and more went down. She saw the dark streak getting closer to her house. She had to do something.

Kelanthara moved her top to reveal the mark over left breast. "Lily if you can hear me El needs help please say something please lend me your power." She started to get scared because she could sense something darker coming towards her. She realized that she recognized this power. He had spared her at their last meeting she was not sure why but he did. "Please Lily......."

Kelanthra's mark began to glow, the Pandora within her moved weakly. All this time as it slept, it heard everything. Beams of light weaved around in from of Kelanthra's face and formed into a bow for her to grasp. "I am still weak, but I will do all I can."Suddenly the sky opened up, a ray of came down from the heavens and showered on Kelantha. A burst of light came rushing out of her from all sides. The light in itself did nothing to the surroundings, but it surely wiped out the last of the remaining Phantom forces. All but for Rolas, the darkness was far too deep embedded into his heart to be purified so easily. He looked around, amazed that the Pandora used its strength on an attack like that. He was alone now, but that was alright, he had yet to decide that it was time to retreat. "Dil'nen, or are you Lily now? How much power did you use to vanquish that invasion force?" The pandora said not a word to him. Not getting a reaction, it decided to fly towards it's vessel, his greatsword ready to cut her down.

Saya nodded slowly, absorbing every detail of the information about their mothers. She was going to reply when a dark feeling pervaded the air, this one even stronger than the feeling before. The feeling was so overpowering that she felt sick to her stomach. She rose to her feet, almost subconsciously, and took her tanto in hand. She looked at Nala, needing to confirm what she was feeling. "Do you sense that?" She asked, "Or is it just me?" It couldn't be her imagination, the premonition in the air was so thick one could practically see it. That wasn't much of an exaggeration as she looked outside of the window and saw the dark clouds storming outside of the window. She could see a streak in the distance, seemingly in the city, as well. All at once, and with the company of a bright light, the darkness and the feelings that came with it were gone. Saya had dropped the curtain back into place when the light nearly blinded her. Something amazing had happened, she just knew it. She felt strangely excited, but she was standing on the sidelines by staying here.

Kelanthara came out of the house to face Rolas head on. She wanted to know why he spared her back at her own village if he saw that she was the same person just with a pandora. Three arrows formed out of thin air. They were made of pure light and she knocked all three. "You remember about a couple of weeks ago your phantoms destroyed another village like this there was an elf that you spared. Why did you spare me and yet you come to kill me now?" She drew the string on the bow until the right moment.

"That kinda feels nice, lower, lower." Asked Terrell, he could definitely get used to this rather quickly. He took a look through her left eye when he felt her hurrying. It appeared she was getting looks from the public. "You know you don't have to literally speak right? Your thoughts work, don't worry, we're not normal babies that its necessary." He teased his vessel some. How fast was she going anyway, it was difficult to stay on his side of the womb. --------------- Nala gave a stern look and nodded her head. Something was definitely up, she looked at the weapon in Saya's hand, that must have been what she used on the Phantom earlier. She followed Nala to the window and saw the light coming their way. That didn't look good to her and she went on her first instinct. She took Saya and dropped to the ground. "Get down!" The light passed over them, but did not destroy a single thing. That was peculiar, she even felt a sense of peace once the light shined on her. The symbol on her lower back, her Pandora's Mark began to react to it and glow with a faint light. Nala rose to her feet, understanding exactly what it was. "Pandora..." ---------------- Rolas did not care to mention his intentions to one who was about to die. He did remember this child, he was going to kill her with the others, but he sensed something about her. "You smelled of being Marked, I was waiting for your Pandora to find you in order to kill you and it in while it was still weak. A trap set, and Dil'nen fell right into it." Rolas brought is blade right down on the ground and sent forth another wave of darkness, this time towards Kelanthra. "Even if I knew of it, I still would had anyway. You're not going to harm this one."

Kelanthara let loose the arrows towards Rolas as the dark energy crashed into her knocking her back and she blacked out. Kelanthara was spent she was not use to this kind of energy. She was not dead but at that moment it looked like she was.

Light surrounded El and the phantoms. The felling was familiar. So Kela did it. Still the danger wasn't over yet. It was the Spectre she was worried about.
She hurried back to the her house at a dead run. When she got there she saw the attacked her whip immediately flew out to wrap around his sword.
"Hello, Rolas." she growled.

A small squeal escaped Saya's throat as she was dragged downward by Nala, she froze as she hit the ground. Nevertheless, the light only yielded peace. She looked at Nala as she mentioned pandoras, it sounded eerily familiar. She propped herself up on her elbows and looked at Nala, "I'm guessing this is an issue that concerns us." she assumed.

Nala nodded again. "If you're like me, your mother and my mother." She turned her back to Saya and lifted the back of her shirt, revealing her Mark. "That is what we call a Pandora's Mark Saya, specifically the one meant for a maiden. I have it the same place my mother had hers, your mother had it higher on her back if memory serves correct." Nala went on to explain that she was a Maiden by blood, and that with a enough training, she could be stronger than her mother was. --------------- "Hello, Eleanor, Bel'nas. Oh right, it's been Brenna for a number of centuries now. Does mother's name still get under your skin?" Replied Rolas, He tugged at his sword tightly so that she could not take it from his grasp. He was going for the death blow, when his sister interrupted him in her usual manner. Why a whip, he'll never understand. "Kela, wake up. You're stronger than this, I know that because I chose you."
