The War of Ages

[Tyamius, Shadow Lord]

(Actually I was gonna have a vendo reunion with Mark, Ryan, Aeris, Kes...the whole shebang!)

"I do not choose for her. Would you like me to unblock that memory? All the hate and fear, all the anger and malice that seeped from her pores?" Ty said in a sad but angry tone. He dropped his guard and let the blade slip into the shadows.

"She is the reason i'm alive. She saved me from the facility. I had no life before that place and without her I would have no life today." He lets the two others rise to the surfaces, their voices melding to be one as the speak.

"Kill me if you believe it must be done. But killing me will never put you back with her. I hold no claim over her, I only had that piece of me in her head. She is the key to the door." He emphasized the last sentence by tapping his head.
-------------------------------------------------------
"Kill them my warriors! Kill them all!" Azazel yelled, his voice ringing out. He had finally come face to face with his greatest adversary, Nkarn. "Let the show begin..." He said pulling the Spear of Ragnarök out of thin air.

Aeris feels the odd call in the back of her head she shrugs to herself lifting the heart in the air where it remains suspended by her will controlling the tides of Azezal’s champions as they wreak havoc upon the Imperial forces. She glides down the warring corridors towards the chambers as much asscociated with her slavery as with her freedom. Or is it just slavery? Wait where did that question come from in her head. She shakes her head jabbing a blade into a man from her side that is in frenzy. As her feet carry her over the gothic surface of the stone she is unchallenged and shouts of renewed courage are heard from her men. As she crosses into the corridor that has her shared chambers in it Terminators all clad in white with dark stripes along their armor pass her and she nods at them, “For Azezal!” she smiles opening the barred room with ease stepping inside uncertain why she has answered the call of another.

She rounds through into her chambers uncomforted by the surroundings suddenly. She opens the door that joins into the bedroom and her booted feet clank against the floor as she enters breathing in sharply as she stares at Flaron, “Flaron!” her hands fall to her blades, he isn’t one to be trusted, and for some reason she feels unsafe in this room. Her eyes glance at the walls suddenly the room smells of corrupt blood. She turns glares at him but behind him she can see the spot where she first begged for Mark’s life. How did she forget? And over there her mind points to the spot where she spent her first night bleeding on the floor. Her blades are out without thought he is the cause she knows it. These thoughts are not hers. He was unsafe then, he still is, “Get out of my bedroom. I don’t care what gifts you bear.”

Z-Aul snarls at him, “I would have her be less innocent, instead she is like a sheep. You stopped reality from touching her. She is pristine. Too perfect, she is fake, like a doll.” He screams suddenly his own pain is on display as he attacks Ty wildly no discernable pattern as he begins to cry years of pain he thought he’d given up surfacing, “She was so young when they took her. How can a 16 year old tell a 12 year old he loves her.” He snarls thrusting his blade through a shadow Ty, “It wasn’t fair. She couldn’t see it and it wasn’t acceptable. I had to treat her like a sister. I teased her relentlessly hoping she would notice me.” He snarls throwing a dagger through another shadow Ty, “But then they took her. And instead of finding me she found you.” He spits angrily busting another Ty in half, “And it’s your fault she never missed me. She never even thought to look for me.” He charges at the real Ty, “But she’ll forget about you now. And she’ll love me!” The blade strikes straight for Ty’s heart thrust by pain and hatred.

[Tyamius, Shadow Lord]

Roxa and Seer smile inside Ty's head, causing Ty himself to smile. "Your heart is filled with sorrow, and until it is pure you shall find no such love." Ty said sending a mental message to Solara, "The balcony...I lay to rest...Z-Aul is who..." He stops right their as he coughs up blood and falls to the floor in a puddle of his own blood.

{Ty's Mind}

"You did good boy." Roxa said clapping Ty on the shoulders. "I'm going to find Harry and tell him what just happened. I need you to stay alive for a few more minutes." He disappeared leaving Ty with Seer.

[Father Nurgle]

Flaron thinks to himself. Now is the time.
"Aeris Vaer, we finally meet. for a while i have seen you act happy in this prison. Putting on a fake smile whilst you live in the very halls you were once tortured to the brink of death." Flaron began, walking forwards and stopping 10 feet away from Aeris. she was barely even showing any signs of battle, only hard hands and blades had blood on them, although her breathing was a tad quick, she looked fully energized.
"Now i come to show you a way out." Flaron reached slowly for the bright green chainsword on his waist. "I ask of you before you have thoughts of attacking me, to think back; way back... Saldern..." Flaron threw out a holovision coin on the floor and a planet came up. It was green with beauty and peace. A place all envied to live. "Years ago, you lost a friend here, your dreams told me so of it..." Flaron pulled out the chainsword. "To worshipers of Khorne by the inquisitorial spy reports..." Flaron let a smile pass behind his helmet. he had full access to the most confidential imperial records because of his ally Lord Inquisitor. And had taken the liberty to finding the solution to his questions... "Those forces at that time, were under direct command of Your Master, Azazel..." Flaron threw out the Aurora green chainsword to Aeris' feet. The seal of the Aurora chapter still shining. "His actions caused your inner most pain, the haunting feeling that you could have done better..." The holovision showed a tree of command of Khorne lords. a red circle showed Azazel's old portrait over the lords that attacked Saldern. "You can put a stop to all of that pain you stash away, by striking down the one who gave you this pain..." Flaron looked at the chainsword and lifted it with his thoughts. "i am sure he would want you to do it with his own..." Flaron's voice drifted off, somberly.
He readied himself for every outcome he could think of. with a last resort Flaron had his warptime spell ready if all else fails and he is attacked...

Solara has been busy warding off attacks from the blood warriors but suddenly she hears Ty and his connection is slipping. She’s neverfelt so frightened in her life as she runs through the warriors towards the palace. Men step in her way but are thrust aside by her unconscious fear or is it love. Her soft booted feet slap on the stone as she runs faster than she ever has in her life. She rounds a corner quickly feeling Ty fading and her vision is blurring from tears as she rounds her way through the rat warren. Men try to stop her some shout insults, but finally she bursts into the dark throne room that Ty and Z-Aul are in.

There towers Z-Aul over Ty his eyes red with tears as he stares at the bloody pool that is forming at his feet. He turns looking at Solara who stares at him her eyes angry, “What have you done?” she whispers her voice hoarse. She steps towards him and he looks sorry, “I did it for us… Please don’t” he reaches for his face only to find himself thrust against a wall. She wants to crush him she wants him to scream and begfor mercy but that moment passes so suddenly. She can feel his sorrow she can feel his pain and she looks at him with pity, “I’m sorry Torra. Im so sorry. For us both.” She flicks out her hand forcing him to open a portal and throw himself into it. He disappears without a trace so quickly it’s almost as if he never existed.

She runs forward as the portal disappears and she lifts Ty’s upper body into her arms, “Ty…! Ty! Ty open your eyes!” she sobs as though she is totally unaware of what she just did to Z-Aul. Her hands rip the front of his armor off with ease. She stares at the bleeding wound. “No. No… Ty Open your eyes right now this isn’t funny.” Blood seeps into the folds of her dress onto the front of her chest and her hands are covered with the sticky red substance that flows freely from Ty. “No, I won’t let this happen. No I am stronger than this.” She reaches into the deepest part of her power. She kisses Ty softly her lips meeting his bloody ones as she twists and ebbs her healing and power thief powers into one strange mix. Breathe seeps into Ty as his heart beats once more. Yet she doesn’t break the contact yet as the wounds all over him begin to heal.

Her vision blurrs with pain as she feels wounds blossom all over her porcealn skin. She can feel Seer trying to force her to stop, “Stop damn girl stop. You’re killing yourself.” She smiles lightly, “But Ty is getting better so it doesn’t matter.” He shakes the psychic Solara, “But he will fail without you.” She smiles at Seer as her voice fades away, “No.. Ty will succeed for me.”

She smiles as Ty’s eyes open to her own dark grey ones, “I love you.” Her hands shake as she can no longer keep herself up. She smiles as she stares at the ceiling, “I’m sorry…”

(sorry for the double posts, I spend so long writing that new posts crop up and I have to answer them xD)

Aeris stares at the weapon, the markings along her body seem to curl all over trying to hold in the thoughts they were made to control. She stumbles backwards holding her head shaking at the sight of the weapons and planet. Tears and sweat pours down her body as she shakes uncontrollably, “No… I didn’t. It can’t be true. He didn’t cause it.” She stares at the bed as illusions of her and Azezal play along her vision. Blood trickles from her nose as the lines along her body seem to snap and leap off her skin landing on the floor as the twin daemons that held those thoughts at bay slither off towards the bed.

She stares at the weapon and the planet, “Burn…. It was.. I could have saved him.” She clutches her hands to her head sobbing, “He was always there, and I ..I failed.” She chokes as the daemons turn realizing that failure won’t play well with Khorne. “I care for you Aeris.” The words spoken by lips that have touched hers and bitten her, she holds her ears shaking. “No good comes from consorting with Daemons.” She covers her head sobbing, “He was right. No good has come of it.” She shakes as the weapon comes before her offering a way out.

Her hand reaches out slowly for it. She rises slowly from her place on the floor. She takes it staring at it slowly, “You raise excellent points. I am going to get this right. For Burn.” She smiles lightly at Flaron, “Starting with you.” She swings the blade up in an attack pattern drawing her khornite blade as well, “Unfortunetly, you’re a daemon too.” She charges forward at him.

[Tyamius, Shadow Lord]

"I gave my life for you to live. Now you have done the same for me." Ty said taking her up in his arms. His eyes glow white as Harry appears along with The Knight. "I'll give up my wings for her to live again." Ty says staring at the two men.

He stands before them waiting for his wings to disappear and then he marches down the halls, the sword forged from his own shadows in his hand. "Azazel! Your tyranny ends here! This war cost me my mentor, the love of my life, and now it will cost you your soul!" Ty yelled from atop the stair case where just below Nkarn and Azazel had been dueling. He struck down several charging warriors, his blade glowed white as each was purified.

"Nkarn, Bestow upon me the right to kill this man! I shall purge him of his sins, and he shall be judged by the emperor accordingly! Bestow upon me the right of an Inquisitor, long enough to do what must be done!" Ty said taking each step slowly. His wings spread out, he was still waiting for them to turn to dust as his love returned to him but no such thing happened...yet.
---------------------------------------------------------

Back in the room every blow Ty dealt cause some color to return to Solara's skin. His true might and will, the will of a warp crosser, was attempting to bring her back.

[Frontier Guide]

"Okay i am at the dock and i am on the bridge, i have not seen you yet, where are you?

[Esiphas]

(The knight was the warpcrosser Captain. Harryi is the Captain now, there is no knight.)

Nkarn nodded to Ty. He was busy fighting off Nurgle, is sealed rebreather mask blocking te worst of the plague gods toxins. 'You have the honour.'

Meanwhile, where Solara was, Jack rose from thefloor. He moved to the barely concious Solara. 'Sol. Its me, jack. Its jack, from the facility. Jack with te blades. Stupid jack who got Banshee stuck in his own head. Remember?' He stares at her injured form. He realises then and there who's fault it is. 'Azazel. Its all his fault.' Beginning to cry, Jack said to Solara 'You need to live. Not for me, for Ty. 16, shadow, whatever you want to call him. Now i love you Solara. I always did. I was just such a coward, i never spoke up. And i am on the wrong side here' Jack places one hand above her face. 'You take this. You need it more than I do.' a rapid line of energy streaming from his hand into Solaras mouth. She feels her strength Rapidly returning, Becoming even stronger. Jack begins to dissolve away from the feet up. 'Goodbye Solara. Enjoy your life.'

Banshee felt jack die in the courtyard. 'What? Jack? No no no no no....' SUddenly, a white blade peierced his Daemonic heart. Looking behind him, Harry of the warpcrossers stood, defiant. A white hot pain burned through Banshee's body. 'Curse you, warrior of light.' He muttered, before burning away to a rust coloured Ash. Harry rose Into the air. 'Old gods of CHaos! Hear me! I am Harry Utair Kaziaos of the warpcrossers, and i ave an offer you'd have to be stupid to refuse. Azazel insults you. Four once proud deitys, reduced to petty warriors. Join with us, join against Azazel! You will return to your rightful places as gods of the warp, Azazels broken corpse your plaything for eternity!'

[Tyamius, Shadow Lord]

Ty smiled as we looked at Azazel holding the spear, "Any last words 'O Mighty Lord of chaos'?" Ty said mockingly. Azazel could not move, he was stricken by fear after hearing Harry's announcement. The warriors of each god had been under a spell but at that moment Tzeentch appeared between Ty and Azazel.

A cackling laugh was heard before he was seen as the thin man appeared. "Azazel I have something that belongs to you." The god said holding up a small leather satchel. "I have had the true orbs! Did you really think the God of Change would let you make a fool of him like this? Now you shall feel the wrath of a thousand warriors at the hands of one!" He yelled before disappearing again.

Ty watched the spectacle as Azazel looked up in a mix of fear and anger. "You think this little set back is my defeat? I will kill you..." He said spitting at Ty's feet,"...Warpcrosser!" With his final word he dropped the Spear and pulled out his bloodfeeder. Ty and Azazel traded blows back and forth Azazel was pushing back with every swing of his ax but Ty held his ground. Finally Azazel found a hole in Ty's guard and cut a deep gash into the boy's left leg.

"Damn..."Ty said swinging his sword in a graceful arc and catching the man's wrist. He kicked out and watched Azazel stumble to the top of the staircase. "Azazel, by the power invested in me, granted by Lord Inquisitor Nkarn Phoenix. I hereby sentence you to DEATH for crimes against the Imperium of Man! May the Emperor have mercy on your soul."

The last words could only be heard by Azazel and Ty himself as he lifted the Spear of Ragnarök up with his right foot and drove it through the False King's heart.

[Esiphas]

Harry shouted 'Yes!' at the top of his lungs as Azazels heart was peirced. Nkarn fired his storm bolter in the air, screaming ;'Victory!' A chorus echoed by his retinue and Caiths. Jack, his head and left arm, still stretched over solara, hung in the air. He sensed Azazels death 'He's gone. I guess it's my time anyway. Goodbye Solara. I'm going to miss this. Everything.'

Harry swooped into the room where Solara lay, jack slowly burning away to dust. 'Jack Staegen' he looked at him. 'Saviour of a life.' Harry helped Solara to her feet. (this is after she has said any goodbyes she may or may not say). 'Solara. Doyou feel this man is worthy of a new life?'

[mina]

(whoa slow down just a bit for me, I had school and Jward wasn't letting us post. Now back up to when Jack tries to revive Solara because it isn't going to work just like that.)

As he begins to disappear and Solara still lays there. Her skin is pale and the same dead smile is pasted across her face. The energy ebbs back at Jack swirling around him as he discontinues fading away.

Light gathers around Solara suddenly it flows over her like water beating into her dead frame as it lifts her into the air. Wings split from her back. Strange wings, not unlike an Angels but also somewhat fairy like. Breathe seems to flow into her lungs and then out as she opens her now pure white eyes. She turns smiling at Jack, "Silly goosey. I have a plan. And you can come too." she grins quickly looking her white dress over and looking at him, "Well come on. We haven't time to waste." a portal opens up and she holds out her hand to Jack and he looks at her like she has three heads and she shakes her head quickly, "Look I can't stay here. I have to grow up, and so does Ty. And we can't do it together. But I'll get lonely, and you need a change too. Look I promise we'll be back eventually." he white hair flicks about and the wings on her back fan out as Harry comes into the room staring at her changed form, "Harry!" she seems bubbly and happy to see him, "Good Job! Catch ya later! After all, eternity isn't such a long time." she waits for Jack to step into the portal or not.

[Esiphas]

(O.o oooh....)

Jack stares. 'You want me to come with you?' Jacks old cowardlyness is still in him, he is struggling. Then suddenly, a tiny neelde, drops out of Jacks hand, smashing to rust coloured ash on the floor. Jack looks up, his old eyes gone, replaced with new ones, Dark black ones, like they were once before. 'Solara' he siad in a voice, deepr than his childlike voice. He sounded more her age, rather than the child he had been trapped as for years. His beard, nonpresent before, had grown, a black full on (think jesus) beard. His hair was longer and unwashed. 'I'd be delighted. I'f you'll still have me along after my... Change.'

[mina]

She grins grabbing his hand, "I didn't mean the other Jack." She is waving to Harry as she drags Jack into the portal and it closes around them. Her smiling face is the last thing Harry sees of her.
