Zorin was quick to pull up, glad he didn't have to land with all the undead. Tyrin looked over at Hild with a smile. "Enjoying the ride?" he said happily even over all the darkness, and undead corpses. Zorin just laughed. "I am amazed at your bravery young Kitsune, you are definitely not one to be underestimated, very impressive"

"Excuse me, have you said Volteck? How did you know him?" Albertus was sure he said it, they had the same energy flowing around them, and as a being made of dark energy he could easily feel it. He saw the huge amount of harpies and zombies and had an idea. "You better go to the tower right away, I'll finish these harpies and zombies off and catch you up" he screamed to to Zorin, Tyrin and Hild. He landed on the wretched floor, felt the dark energy flowing through the vines, like blood in veins, and began absorving it, without transforming into his complete shadow form. Dark flames began to spin around him, growing more and more, hundreds of swords floating, his eyes burning with dark fire. "I'll hold it until you are far enough, GO NOW!" he screamed to his companions in the sky.
"Overenjoying" Hild answered to Tyrin with a blank look on his face. He sure wasn't the bravest of them. "Are you hurt little fella?" Hild asked Tyrin. Then he heard the samurai warnings, he looked at the ground and saw the huge globe of dark flames and swords expanding, was that samurai crazy? "You better fly faster" he told Zorin.

Zorin nodded. "Hold on you two." he said. Suddenly he shot forward like a bullet, his wings seemed to be barely doing any work yet they were flying at unimaginable speeds. Tyrin had turned back into his human form to hold on and didn't dare let go. He felt almost like there was no gravity at all they were going so fast. It wasn't long until they seemed to suddenly stop. Tyrin looked around, the area was unfamiliar to him, as should be expected. They were probably hundreds of miles from the samurai by now at his speeds. He noticed an old fountain that probably used to be quite the sight but was now a dark shadow of its old self, old, broken and rusted. And as he took a closer look something was coming out of it yet it wasn't water....it was blood. Tyrin fumbled backward and almost fell off. Luckly Zorin was already landing. It was then Tyrin noticed the tower in the distance. It was roughly a hundred stories high and was radiating dark energy like no other. It was incredibly thick. Tyrin frowned as he looked at it. "So we just destroy it?" he asked Zorin. Zorin nodded but frowned. "Yes, but for each tower there is always a guardian blocking it or some sort of puzzle. They are not to be underestimated. Some may look easy, but they always have some sort of twist to them." he stated before moving forward. "Stay with me" he stated. Tyrin just nodded, waiting and preparing for what would come next. As they walked forward towards it he really started to feel the darkness, despair, sadness, and hopelessness the tower gave off. He quickly moved the feelings away and concentrated. Before he knew it they were infront of the tower...yet nothing happened. Tyrin, who was now on the ground and walking along side walked up to the tower, and without thinking...walked in. It was sudden and quick as the door behind him swung close. Zorin cursed and quickly tried to blow the door open, but nothing seemed to work. It seemed totaly immune to all magic or abilities. The boy would be on his own, this tower's defence was only that it could be destroyed only from the inside out.

Albertus unleashed the energy as he saw his friends go away. The sword and dark fire cutting and burning every harpy and zombie, spreading burnt flesh, blood and guts all over the place in an explosion that could be seen miles away. He took a moment to breath and looked around, no enemies left. The dragon that talked to him was still flying high in the sky, but he had no time to waste. He cast the flying magic once more and went to the dark tower as fast as he could. When he got there he nodded to Zorin and Hild "All dead". But he suddenly noticed, there was one missing. With surprise on his face he asked: "Where is Tyrin?"
Hild closed his eyes as Zorin speeded forward, feeling a bit uncomfortable. Only when Zorin landed that he opened his eyes and steped on the floor. He looked at the dark tower, all rusted, thick, pulsing with dark energy, covered with fear, despair, darkness, and a huge thirst for blood. He walked along with Zorin and Tyrin in silence, listening to his explanation, suddenly Tyrin walked into the tower, and the door closed behind him. Even with Zorin attacking the door it wasn't moving, not even a bit. "What do we do now, Zorin?" he asked. In a moment the samurai arrived, as he looked around he noticed that Tyrin wasn't there and asked. Hild stayed in silence, wainting for Zorin to answer.

Neceron remained with the samurai. He landed bloing many of the undead from around the " dont understimate these. tho they are lowly soldiers of darkness in numbers they are deadly" he tells him " the only way to kill them for good is with fire." he looked at him " give me your sword and quickly"

Zorin frowned. "Tyrin is stuck inside. It seems the trick to this one, is on the outside its impervious to any magic or powers whatsoever. Yet that makes the inside even more succeptible. Tyrin is going to have to find his way out, and finish the puzzle the tower sets for him. Then he will be free and we will be able to destroy the tower. It seems Asurath put a lot of thought into these." He said remembering how some of the first ones were easier to destroy. He was about to just sit down and wait...but suddenly the ground erupted. Suddenly a single undead popped up. He was dressed in some sort of (what used to be a) sorcerer's robe and carried a staff darker than the darkness itself. He laughed a heartwrenching laugh. But he fact he was the only one to show, and the powe he seemed to radiate, this was no normal undead. "But now...we fight" Zorin stated.

If ever asked Tyrin doubted he could explain what the inside of the tower looked like. It was as if he had been transported to a whole new place altogether. It was dark, and decrpepid, yet it seemed to be breathing as if it had its own life. The room was gigantic, each part seeming to lead into another hallway. He wondered what the others were doing, but knew time was of the essence and quickly looked around. He needed to pick the right one, yet they all looked the same. He quickly looked to the one at his right, trusted his instincts and ran in. He ran down the hall as fast as he could. He could see a door at the other end, but for some reason no matter how much he ran he never got closer. It was like either the hallway was getting longer as he ran, or he wasn't moving at all. So he paused for a second, catching his breath. Then he started walking slower towards the door. He now took the time to look at the doors on each side of the hall, he now noticed every fifth door repeated. He was basicly running down the same five door hall over and over. How could this be? He now decided to look back, the room was still there right behind him, even for the hour he seemed to be running. He decided he would try one more time, this just couldn't be right. It had to be some sort of optical illusion. He ran forward and suddenly ran straight into the door. He smiled, opened it and stepped through. Suddenly he found himself standing right back where he had entered the tower as if he just got there again. He looked back at the door and turned to open it. It was the same door that closed behind him when he first came in. He opened it and looked into the hallway he just came from. This couldn't be right. He started to freak out for a moment, then looked behind him. He could see right down the hallway and see himself from behind as if he was watching himself from the doorway. This couldn't be right. Yet it got worse. He looked back to the door, then back behind him and his other self was gone. He gulped before quickly shutting the door and stepping away. Would he be trapped here forever? No...there must be a way out there had to be!(NOTE! Time here moves A LOT faster than the outside world. Technicly the hour he spent there is no more than a minute to the others)

Hild was thinking how he could help when something popped out of the ground, a sorcerer like undead. He felt the evil emanating from him. He hid himself behind a red colored stone, extended his hands toward his friends and stood looking at them, ready to heal if needed.
Albertus sensed the evil coming out of the ground before the undead itself appeared. In his experience fighting for Asurath he knew some of those, they had to take him out quickly before it unleashed it's full power. "Destroy it quickly before it casts any magic!" he said to Zorin, piercing the undead with both swords in it's chest, he left the swords there and disappeared. If anyone looked up it would see Albertus up in the sky casting a huge fireball.

The undead laughed at the swords which suddenly disappeared from his body. One suddenly appeared flying towards Albertus, while the other could be seen flying towards Hild who wasn't hiding as well as he thought. The undead then moved forward and pointed his staff into the air, immediately a beam of dark energy shot up towards Albertus following the sword.

Neceron took the swords. and looked up. he was in the blast radius of that fireball. he quickly jumped up into the air passing it on his way up. He then cut he hand open and let the blood drop in the blades where they burst into blue flames. He waited for the samurai to make the next move before he attacked, Holding the flaming swords.

I'm dead, Hild thought as the sword flew towards him, but in the last moment the stranger they saw before took up both swords and he got relieved. He stepped back, still looking at his friends to heal them if needed.
Albertus saw the swords disappearing from the undead's chest and flying towards him and Hild, both swords were taken by Neceron. He shot the huge fireball at the dark energy flying towards him, creating a strong energy blast. He disappeared and in the next moment he was behind the undead, with one arm turned into a shadow scythe that cut out the undead's arm that was holding the staff. He threw that staff to Zoring and said: "Take care of that". He held the undead, trying to suck his energy.

Tyrin frowned as he looked around. He needed to try another hall... So he ran forward towards another hall, but right as he got there and looked down the hall he saw himself again, yet this time he was facing him. And as he looked closer the other him started to change, it was becoming corrupted. Immediately he moved to touch his face thinking it was his reflection and he was becoming corrupted. He tried to feel the veins as they bulged with the darkness. His reflection dark self moved with him at first. But suddenly it took a step forward towards him. Tyrin suddenly jumped and ran back where he had come. Yet as he looked back up all around him, from every hallway the corrupted versions of himself started coming forward towards him. Step by step they got closer and closer. Was this how it was going to end? He transformed into his fox form and curled up into a ball, shivering from fear. Yet suddenly everything came back to him. He had forgotten in the illusion about everyone else, those who depended on him, his family, his friends, the princess... all of GAIA! Suddenly his eyes glowed silver and he stood up starting to transform this time into his full kitsune form. The fire was like no other, as it spiraled around him. Suddenly it spread outward engulfing the clones and filling the rooms. And suddenly something happened, the room cracked as if it were glass, then as his fire expanded more it shattered around him, in its place showing the true inside of the tower. Tyrin grinned and looked to the staircase and quickly ran up it. With his speed and determination it wasn't too long for him to make it to the top floor. Right in the center of the small room was a crystal eminating dark energy. This was what seemed to be protecting the tower.

Neceron looked behind him and saw more Harpies coming at them " focus on the undead, ill take care of those harpies" Neceron told him and he rushed the formation with the flaming swords in hand cutting down many in his path.

The undead sorcerer laughed before turning into ash along with the staff. Suddenly a dark blast was fired from some unknown position as it headed towards them all. The undead Albertus had attacked was no more than a clone created by the undead who was obviously not only powerful but smart and thought far ahead. Zorin was quick to react to the blast and moved forward and blew fire and lava at the blast which collided with it creating a huge explosion. Yet before the explosion cleared another blast came right through it. Not able to react quick enough Zorin was hit head on, sending him flying back into a nearby structure and falling to the ground. His scales luckly had taken the blast and were strong enough to mostly protect him. "I am fine" he stated before getting back up. The blast had knocked him quite hard though, whoever this was he was powerful.
((This is basicly a boss battle smile Never that easy))
