As the fake Clover begain to reform, Epotheros drew his sword from its sheath while yelling, "I don't have time for this now stay dead!" Epotheros then unleashed a large amount of fire energy from his sword as it flew threw the air like a giant curved sword cutting deep into the ground before imparting with the monstrosity. As it was incinerated again Epotheros noticed a orb of black energy that seemed to pulsate as the mist tried to reform. Quickly Epotheros dashed at it, piercing it with his sword. He was then engulf in a bright flash of light and was teleported back to where Clover and Tramer were at.
"Seems Tramers magic reacted with eachother and her destruction caused the trap to teleport me back here." Epotheros thought as he ran towards the barrier. As he neared it Epotheros took the small chunk of the arrow he had retrieve while he bond the fake Clover and cluched it in his fist as ran towards the barrier. "Clover I am going to save you!" he called out to her and he swung his fist as hard as he could at the barrier.

Tramer ran along side Clover predicting her every move form watching her body language, Tramer swung downward with his sword cutting her arrow from were it left her hand “I never took you for one to be so stupid, I could kill you at any time why have I not?” Tramer asked as he grabbed Clover by the throat lifting her feet off the ground, Tramer then tossed her back into the center of the barrier “no one is coming to save you and you are not going anywhere, I can already see it your weakening form using your powers so much” just then Tramer fell to his knees and he looked to the ground. Tramer then looked up at Clover “help me” Tramer said in a weak voice before returning to his feet “this mortal never ceases to amaze me, but never mind that if you will not help me willingly I’ll just have to give you some more incentive” Tramer said as he reached back into his pack and pulled out several red darts “don’t worry they wont kill you” Tramer said with a evil smirk on his face as he throw the darts at Clover three of the darts vanished as the traveled and the other two continued on there coarse there only a sedative but they will subdue her for long enough for me to complete my goal Tramer thought to himself. Then Tramer saw Epotheros near the barrier, Tramer laughed slightly seeing him approach with a piece of one of Clover’s arrows in hand “I would not do that if I were you” Tramer yelled knowing that Epotheros did not hold the same power as Clover and even thou the arrow would had held some of her power it would not be near enough to dissolve the barrier well at least im going to get to see him thrown into a near by tree Tramer thought to himself still keeping a close eye on Clover doing everything he could to insure at lest one of the darts hit her

Upon her last chance being cut in two Clover was clearly out of ideas and strength. She couldn't let Tramer's words bother her, but when he lifted her by the neck she thought her time really was at an end. Clover recoiled upon hitting the ground and attempted to lift herself up, but failed. Her muscles were weary and her energy was completely depleted. She faintly thought she heard Tramer's voice, the real Tramer pleading. She winced knowing that she couldn't help her friend. She had already attempted to purge it with purifying light from her dagger earlier and that didn't seem to even faze him. What could she do?
Clover barely noticed the darts coming towards her. Without the energy and drive to dodge them, the two darts hit their target. She could feel them peirce her skin: one right above her left armlet and the other on her back through her top. Everthing began to blurr and her focus was off, and then the world went black.

As Epotheros' hand conected with the barrier, his hand was repeled and thrown back as if it were just jolted by Electricity. He could also tell that what ever was possesing Tramer was nearly out of power, and by generating a barrier, it takes large, strenuis amounts of energy so if he could his it a few times with his own power he should be able to get through. Epotheros then drew his sword from his sheath and raised it high above his head while he pumped large amounts of his own raw energy, using no particular element, and swund it down hard against the barrier. Upon contact the his energy rippled across the barrier and caused it to go transparent a few times. "One wore ought to do it." he said as he repeated the attack, but with more power.

Tramer and Clover reappeared in an ancient a banded cave, in the cave there was no light only a seemingly endless darkness. Tramer walked through the darkness as thou he had been in this place a thousand times, he walked down a series of stairs and into a large chamber were he sat Clover on a large stone table, Tramer then razed both his hands, as he did torched around the room lit illuminating a small section of the cave reviling a seemingly endless assortment of weapons and touchier equipment. Tramer walked around Clover as he put her legs and arms in iron shackles connecting her to the soled stone table “I don’t think these will be necessary but just in case you wake up on me” Tramer said even thou he knew Clover was still in a deep sleep. "Its good to be home” Tramer said as he turned away from Clover as he almost fell to the ground, Tramer cot himself on a near by table as Felsbine tried to take advantage of the dragon’s exhaustion “you’ll have to do better than that” Tramer mumbled as he got back to his feet. Tramer then started setting up traps and barriers throughout the cave just in case someone tried to interfere before he was done. Tramer then returned to were Clover laid and placed his right hand on her face “this might fell a bit odd” Tramer said with a smirk on his face knowing by now it was possible that the sedative might had wore off “uris gormana covash motilos uris…” Tramer chanted, as he did Clover’s mind was torn out her body and sucked into Tramer’s mind
(Clover would find herself in a strange room seeming to be some sort of library thou it was filled with plants as thou a jungle had overgrown it, the building was round in shape and had a spiral stair cases leading floor to floor, there are a total of ten floors each one as you go up getting darker and darker until the top floor that seemed to have no light at all, thou the from the first floor the staircases leading to the next floor has a metal gate raped in seemingly endless chains)
Tramer continued to chant under his breath as he himself seemed to be in some sort of trance
The conches ness of the real Tramer sat in the lotus position in the center of the first floor in the one place in his mind he had managed to keep from Felsbine and the dragon his one sanctuary from the darkness and the only place left with the last few secrets he had managed to keep from them

After blacking out Clover's mind flew away. The orbs from before appeared and she knew that she must still be alive. "I know,"she snapped in a frustrated tone. "I'm not worthy of my ancestors," she guessed what they were going to chant at her.
A warm, gentle breeze circled her in greeting almost as if the wind was showing sympathy. The chanting that she expected to come from the orbs did, "Well, you already understand what your failure will lead to, child?"
Before Clover could answer the wind spoke for her, "She is still alive. Her failure is not yet finite. Do not doom her to a fate that has not come pass. There is still hope."
At that moment Clover felt an undying adoration for the wind. Though this was all in her mind she knew that her powers were always arguing about whether she was indeed worthy or not to weild either of them. The wind was constantly there for her. That was something she would never question, for the wind's loyalty was beyond any tangible object she could ever desire. "I will not give up. Just believe in me," Clover pleaded with the orbs in a determined tone.
"Child, we will. Just do not let your determination falter. Never doubt yourse.." the orb's chanting was cut off.
Clover felt as if her mind was shattering. Everything was spinning, and then she landed, figurtively. She found solid ground in what appeared to be a library. The room reminded her of Torin's library-filled stone from before. She looked about realizing that the place must have been ancient or unused, for it was covered in foliage of all kinds. She stepped deeper into the room and gasped at what or rather who she saw. "Tr..Tramer. Is that you?" she spoke out with caution. Why was he here? Was she dreaming yet again, or had the malivolent being from before succeeded?
((Just letting you all know. I finally scanned a few of my sketches. I posted them in the Art forum in Captain Fox McCloud's topic. Unfortunately they're all of Clover, but I intend on sketching more later.))

When his second attack hit, the barrier was disolved, but it also seemed Tramer had teleported away with Clover out of desperation. "I was too late." Epotheros said as he feel to his knees out of greif droping his sword to the ground. "Clover..." he said dumbfounded. Epotheros then spotted Clover's dagger laying on the ground. He quickly scampered over to it and clutched it in his hands. The only remaining trace of her was this dagger...
"Ty! Larien!" Epotheros cried out in desperation. If one of them was there, perhaps they would know of a spell or someway to track her or Tramer.

Tramer opened his eyes shocked to see Clover “Clover” Tramer said as he stood up and walked toward her “I tired to stop him but I see he sucseded in bringing you into my mind” Tramer said in a sad tone “I managed to escape form there clutches when they were fighting over control of my body and sealed off this section of my mind” Tramer said in a quiet tone “you are hear because the dragon wants to use you to get rid of Felsbine for him, and I think you should help him, don’t think iv gone mad but I would have fare better luck trying to reclaim my mind agents one foe than two, and it will be your only way out of here” Tramer said as he turned away from Clover and walked over to the steal gates baring off the stair case “but you will have to do this alone, Torin taught me his most powerful spells including a lvl 100 light magic spell thou I am not strong enough to use such magic the dragon would be, and if was to get his hands on such knowledge even Zant could not stop him” Tramer said in looking to the ground “I must hold my ground here and keep what secrets I have left, I’ll help you in any way I can thou” Tramer said as he turned back toward Clover. Tramer held out his hands palms facing up, a strange light illuminated from his hands before a dagger, a bow and a quiver of arrows appeared in Tramer’s hands “take these and use them to kill Felsbine and give me the chance to take my mind back” Tramer said as he handed the weapons over to Clover
Meanwhile the dragon watched, he had almost hoped Tramer would go with her so he could take from Tramer his last secrets but he did not expect it, he new for a mortal Tramer was smart.
Felsbine stood on the top floor in seemingly endless darkness, his face was twisted with rage as he had finally figured out the dragon’s plans “I’ll have to thank the dragon just before I kill him for giving me the chance to kill that girl myself” Felsbine said to himself as he patently whetted for Clover to arrive

So he did it, Clover concluded as she listened to whom she persumed to be the true Tramer. She was now in Tramer's mind and that didn't necissarily sit so well with her morals. No, messing in someone's head wasn't right. She sighed letting his explaination sink in. Clover hesitantly took the weapons that she normally adorned and readied them on her person. She reassured him, "I'll do my best Tramer. You'll have control again, soon.." I hope she added as a side thought.
Clover reached the staircase turning towards Tramer before she ascended. A bright smile full of hope flashed across her face and then changed to complete determination once she had spun back around to make her way up. Taking a few steps Clover decided to prepared herself for the worse. She took an arrow from the quiver and readied her bow for an anticipated shot. Clover climbed the stairs until she reached the next floor. She gazed about, but saw nothing causing her to keep climbing. Clover noticed the change in light as she kept going higher and higher. Everything was getting darker. Concentrating a bit of power into the arrow the tip lit enough so that she could see her way. Felsbine must enjoy the darkness, she decided to find the darkest floor. Surely that would be where to find Zant's predecessor.

As Clover used some of her power to light her path Felsbine’s skin began to crawl “she still have her powers!” Felsbine said to himself in an irritated voice having had thought she would be helpless in this place. Felsbine motioned his hands as he did darkness began to clump together until it formed a wolf “go my minion and kill the girl” Felsbine said as he grinded his sharpened teeth, he new this little summon would not have the power to kill the girl but he more just wanted to see the how strong she really was

Her footsteps echoed as Clover found her path darkening ever so often. Her raised bow began to feel heavier than normal. The anticipation was too much to handle; she would surely go madd if she didn't reach something soon. Then she heard pattering mingling with the sound of her own steps. Clover stopped and brighten the arrows light to see what was causing the pit-pattering ahead.

((Just warning you all, there is a hack going around gaia that sends you to a gai lookalike site through a link that says to you have to bump afee times to win a n/m scarf. Do no tunder anycircumstances click a link and resign-in. Those ******** also stole my golden laurals, winged anklets, demonic pitchfork and my kiki kitty. That is about a million gold worth in items. At least they didn't steal my ninja headband or the guitars.))
Edit: I have also noticed now that my fire and ice whips are also missing. And I have also looked into the market to find that I have lost about 1.5 million worth in gold.

The wolf what’d for Clover on the ninth floor patiently whetting, as soon as she got to the ninth floor he began to approach slowly stocking his prey, he stayed just out of the light emitted from Clover’s arrow so as not to be seen, he hid to the side as Clover walked, as she passed by his hiding place he jumped out at her attempting to go for her throat
The dragon watched intrigued as Clover headed up to Felsbine, the way he saw it no mater what happened he came out ahead, if Felsbine killed Clover then he would have one less enemy and Felsbine would be weakened enough to kill him himself anyways, and if Clover killed Felsbine then he would be able to take his power and then kill Clover as soon as she awoke, no mater what it was a win win situation
The conches ness of the real Tramer paced around lost in thought, he new the dragon would not just let Clover go once she killed Fesbine, so he thought and thought about a plan to save Clover after she had killed Fesbine

((Captain Fox McCloud, that is awful. I fell into that trap but immediately suspected fowl play and changed my password twice. Then again my items aren't very valuable so they probably just didn't bother. If there's anyway I can help via donating let me know.)) The pritter-patter stopped and Clover tensed a bit. Something was out there, but what and where? Surely Felsbine wasn't stalking her already. As she cautiously tip-toed up the stairs she heard a faint noise. Before she could disern the envading object a faint tug from the wind led her back up a few steps. What appeared to be a wolf made completely of darkness leapt towards where she was a few seconds earlier. Clover quickly aimed her shot and immediately let the arrow encased in light soar towards the dark creature. She inwardly praised herself for being prepared overwise she would have easily failed.
