He turned his eyes to her and stared for a moment before breaking out into laughter , shaking his head. "Serves them right the little witch hunters. Not even any witches to hunt." He dropped a hand to her head, giving her a pat between the ears. "Don't go taking after him now...oh the catastrophe." He gave a yawn. Apparently exerting so much energy to shift and to battle was a real drainer. His ears perked as he was struck with an idea. Hand still on Aurora he melted them both to the shadow plane. There he laid down on his stomach, resting his head on crossed arms. "We'll be safe here. And I'll get my energy back faster." He let his wings relax as he closed his eyes. "Oh yes...Aurora...don't tell Aurahkah about this human shifting thing." He then sighed. "And you can go back home if you wish, I'll be fine...you know the way. But I can't make it right now. I need rest."
((Work...curse you...))

Saradin shuddered under its might and was suddenly flung away, unable to stop the force, railing through the air and slamming into a tree with incredible impact. For just a moment, things began to go dim, but the physical and mental support of the souls that fought beside him kept him in lifes hold.
From the forests, Idalla apeared. Out of the sky she descended onto the scene, a glowing cross hung from her neck, the journal of a saint held tightly with the other she went over the rituals that her husband had taught her used to seal her own evil away if she would one day be unable to control herself. Soothing tones of angelic language boomed over the field and sent shivers down her spine, slowly openning a conduit to heaven itself to smite the demon prince that stained the surface of the earth.

Enoch then broke the chains which bounded the girls to the ground as the blood from his mangeld and scolded hands and from the wounds which Atreyu had inflicted upon him while he was upon the realm of earth. For a long moment Elias simple stood there and looked blankly upon the ground. It was the girls who first reacted, they ran towards the know unbound Elias and wrapped there young hands around his massive body. They could not stop crying, Enoch though that perhaps they would never again stop crying, becuase of the horrible things that they had seen, but Elias stll just lay there, but his hand slowly moved and began to caress the small girl's bloodied hair. "I swear to you I am going to kill him for what he was done to you." it was the first the Elias hd spoken in over twent years, this was how quickly time passed in hell, Elias body rose from the ground he was now nude. His wounds had healed but his mind was no longer intact, it was never going to be intact again, his now yellow snakes turned into black, the black hatred which now flowed through his veins. Elias let out a powerful scream which instantly shattered the crystal which Morpheus was trapped in. He was not conscious and his body was badly burned. Elias looked to Enoch his face was a mask of pure rage. "Enoch take me home, I have a demon to slay." he said, but Enoch responce was nothing more than silence, as he walked over to the girls and lifted them from the ground. The eyes of the girls had stopped sheating tears, they looked Enoch as somehow knew what he was thinking. Enoch smiled as his body and those of the girls also began to glow. "No master there is not enough power for us to leave together. Only you and Morpheus are going to live this plave alive." he said as the bodies of the three burst into flames and they were burning themselves alive, no one of the three screamed in fact they smiled as the flames consumed, the enerygy which was pouring from there bodies was pouring into ELias and Morpheus, lifting them from the ground. "No, please don't, please don't there has to be another way!!" Elias screamed as he as lifted fromthe ground, the tears of sadness and rage pouring down his face. "Please without you I am nothing, there has to be another way!!" he cried, but it was too late, Enoch and twins had given there lives to release Elias from his prison of pain. "We will meet again, I promise." came the three voices of the now dead, Enoch, Dawn and Twillight resonated in his mind. The rain which wa now pouring from the sky hit him so hard that it felt like it was going to shatter his body, in fact he hoped that it would, Morpheous's body the angel, friend of Saradin was still not awake but his body was healed, it had been placed at te front door of the manor. Elias made his way to the battleground, to see Saradin atop a massive dragon and he then saw Atreyu, the man which was the cause him all that pain. But he was not a man, he was a monster and he was going to be pay. "Atreyu!!!!!!" Elias screamed as the very ground underneath him began to shake.

Areyu could not believe what he was hearing, the evil dressed in the light of god blazed unto the figthing stage,As his body was erupting with massive powers which Saradin had given him, for a moment all he knew was darkness as his body was ripped apart. He had been killed by Saradin's massive attack but that was not his end, once more under the power of Sameal rose from the dead, becoming hole as the large black seal of the currupted Aztec god glowed upon the ground at his feet and both upon the chest of Elias, this was going to be easy battle for them to fight, Atreyu felt a shutter ran through his body. but it was not that which made his large demonic body shutter in fear. He turned his heads to see Elias ther alive, and standing with such hatred in his eyes, that it made even he the son of devil shutter in utter fear. The very ground was shaking underneath him, something was very wrong about the man who now stood in the rain of battle, he was not the man which he had captured, he looked like a man who lost everything. And Atreyu knew that this was the most dangerous type of man that there was. "You're not going to scare me Elias, you cannot kill me, I am GOD!!"he screamed as he ran full force at Elias, his body collding with Elias so hard that the sound of bones shattering was as loud as that of a jet taking off the ground. As Atreyu's massive demonic body stuck his own Elias understood what he had to do, Atreyu was right, he was never going to die. Elias and Saradin could not kill Atreyu but there was another way to defeat him.

The trio of warriors in heavens name folded back under the power emenating from Samael's body and had to push themselves to merely remain standing. Calcryx with his remaining power barriered them all inside, protecting the manor and all outside from the final destruction that would soon be unleashed.
((Poor ending for me, but Im starting to get to far gone to continue sadly.))

Elias's body was ripped to pieces, but like Samael he too was remade. But now it was time for him to end this. His body was broken and bruised, when he spoke it was that of a true god, he spoke to Saradin, as he made his way towards Atreyu whose faces reflected the fear that Elias was making him feel. "Saradin, I thank you for the great moments of happiness which I have felt while I was at this place. I want you to thank the beautiful Lady Aura when she returns that I truly love her for the great kindess which she has shown me." he said as he made his way towards Atreyu, who for some reason was felling so much fear that he was complely paralyed by it. "I know leave you everything that I have ever really earned." he said as he placed his large hand over the insignia of the Aztec God, it glowed as it began to raise itself from his skin, until it hung completely in the air, it spun and spun until from the seal emerged a massive black snake with powerful white wings and eyes like the reds of hell. It roared as it moved, in the air , looking more like ghost than an actual god image, its long and powerful body shot straight through Atreyu. Atreyu screamed out in pain as the snake ghost made it's fearsome way towards the door of the manor. As it plummeted towards Atreyu's body his demom form was reduced to that of the human once more. "Nooooo!!! I will not be denied my destiny!" Atreyu screamed as his demon form was once more robbed from him, but the Coathl snake was not yet down with its voyage, it collided with the door, and brought foth from it the image of the mighty pheonix which incase inside it, noth creatures not flew through the air as the tangled amongst each other. The Pheonix and the Snake were now once as they emerged back into the door, Elias had graned the manor itself the power of life everlasting. THis house would now stand forever now that Elias had granted the power of rebirth to it. No onw would destroy this house, it was the only gift that Elias could thing which would such a noble place as this. And it now rendered Elias a normal human once more, he could no longer hide behind the power of the Aztec rain god which had him the lives of so many of those people which he loved so much. Now Elias was mortal, he could die, but most importantly so could Atreyu. Elias said nothing, he simply removed his black obsidian daggers which Enoch had taken from Shinga's room, he whispered to the winds as he balanced the weapons in his hands. "I am sorry that I could not say good-bye, my dearest fox friend." he said as he rose his blades high into the air and charged full force at Atreyu, the screams which now pierced the searing night sky, where the battle cries of the mortal Elias Murieta and the screams of utter fear as Elias charged at him. In the next instant the battle was going to be decided.

"Elias! Dont let yourself die here!" Saradin shouted, still trying to just move. Idalla had spent everything and all she could do was watch, leaning against a tree for support after channeling something that her demonic body was never meant to so much as sense. Even Calcryx was tapped, barely able to take more than a couple steps without stumbling. Every movement was labored and painful. And each was praying for Elais' safety.

Something was not right, as Elias and Atreyu bodies collided he should have felt pain as Elias dagger plunged into his body, but there was no pain only blood. There was so much blood, Atreyu tried desperately to find the wound, the hole from where the blood was coming from. But he was not the one that was bleeding, the smel which came from the blood made it very obvious from whom the blood was coming from, it was not his own but Elias's who looked up to see what Elias had done, he had not plunged into Atreyu, no ELias had done something far worse. He had plunged one his own obsidian into his heart, and judgind from the blood that was now rushing from the corners of the wound, as the dagger remained protruding from his chest it was very clear that Elias had managed to his his mark, he had plunged the dagger into his own eart thus sealing his own fate and more improtantly the fate of Atreyu, without a human anchor, he no way to remain upon the earth anymore. "Curse Elias, I will have my vengence, you may de upon this night but I will destroy this home becuase of you, of this I promise you!!" he screamed in utter frustration as a huge crater in the ground burst open underneath the feet of Atreyu and he was dragged back into the bowels of hell, his body being yanked down by the very demons which served him. "Damn you, Atreyu, I will have my revenge, I will kill those you love most, as you stare down from heaven and are powerless to stop me!!!" he screamed as he was dragged back into hell, and the ground closed up, forever sealin Atreyu and the attrocities which he had created back where they belonged, in the bowels of hell. A smile spread across Elias's face as the blood continued to pour from the wounds. he knew that he was going to die. He let out a powerful screams as he pulled the dagger from his heart as the flow of blood got larger, taking his life that much faster. THe night around him became blurry as the stood in the center of the courtyard which in front on the huge mansion. He smiled as the blood filled his mouth forcing him to spit it out upon the dew wet grass which was under his feet. Staining a strage blood red. He moved to the tree which stood at the center of the couryard, it was a tree under which he had spent many a afternoon simply enjoying the beauty of the world around him. He smiled once more as he struggled desperatety to reach the tree, he wanted to die there he had no idea why, but he was going to do it. His body fell at the base of the tree, the blood which was still pouring from him was soaking int the ground, he hoped that somehow his blood would give life to the flowers and the grass which grew here. He had led a good life and he was happy to have met all those people inside the manor. It had been the most glorious days of his life, he only wished that he could hace told them that. Have said he was sorry for the pain which he had caused them, but he was now beyond redemption, he would pay for his sins with his life, the only real thing of worth to anyone. Dawn, Twillight, Enoch they al had given there lives to help, and he could do nothing but watch them. He was no better than Atreyu, he had watched the people which he loved die, he just stood there as they burned alive. Elias looked up at the night sky as the last of his life left his body, he rose his hand into the night, hoping that he could touch the stars which choaked the sky. Elias smiled once more as his hands fell to the grounf limp and lifeless. His mouth uttered the last words which would ever be spoken by the wariior known as Elias Murieta. "THank, you." he said, as his body went limp, the life drained from his eyes as they closed. Elias Murieta was dead, he died with a smile on his face, his hands folded neatly upon his chest, cluntching the obsidian daggers which where the only link to his family he had. Elias lifeless body lay under the tree smillling as the last of blood soaked into the ground.

The world was silent. Not one life stirred as they watched Elais's last moments, stunned. Calcryx took his human shape to conserve his power and shut his eyes while bowing his head in respect for the fallen. Saradin had seen it far to often, and receded a bit back into himself as he witnessed it again, already in silent prayer. Idalla felt contempt more than anything, like shed seen a poor end to a poor man, it was pitious to her, but still she felt contemptful. Together they shared one similar though, a quiet hope that Elais Murieta would rest well, he deserved that much at least. Walking along slowly, to check the young man's corpse, Calcryx began to sing a low tune, making full use of his powerful vocal cords of a dragon, despite his current form. It was a sign of respect, his hymn of the dead.

Eclipse flew steady through the air, not at all minding the rain that fell on him. Storm had seemed to come out of nowhere today. Then again...they liked to come as if they mourned an event. Perhaps that's how Coban had meant it to be. Or just bad luck. In his arms he carried Aurora, the copy she wolf still asleep. No sense in leaving her back there when he was ready to go. Giving another few flaps to gain altitude he sailed the wind currents to reduce the effort and burden on his wings. He could of always shadowed home...but he liked the rain. It didn't take him long until he touched down at the manor, though turned up his nose in the air and cringed. Battle. Even though he wasn't there he could smell all the blood. Brimstone and fire, various things that should not even be sensed let alone brought beyond Hell. Eclipse snorted and intended to rid himself of the smells. Trekking into the manor via the courtyard back entrance he laid Aurora on the marble floor next to the fire so that she would dry as she slept. He then took to poking around looking for evidence of what his nose was warning him of.

The twitching in Caliburn ended, and Nelphean felt the sickness of death. Someone... Nelphean shook his head, too many good people die.
Monolith stood by the door, watching the sky, the birds and the trees. Nature was still at its best, but something remained...
Sleeping soundly, Aurora's mind swirled with her guilt, her body was chilled and she felt incredibly lonely.
Singing softly to his deity, Ke'Nel sat alone in the large manor without another soul. Nelphean had tricked him far too many times, and his sisters' absence was decreasing his moral. He remembered the mind of Aurahkah, and the great joy she had...
The forest was grand, and she felt traped by the walls of this room. She watched the fates battle the night before, and saw the man defeat the demon. Her younger sister slept soundly, but the wids were too queer, and the night called for her... The sorceress was trying to talk, but Sylphina wasn't listening.
Dreaming dreams of blissful fields, joyous elves, and mighty treants, Taria saw her mother dancing, with the elf she finally found. Nelphean was graceful and polite, never wrong, but never right. SHe felt his love for her mother ignight, and nothing could keep them apart. Then a demon rose from the ground, and smote Nelphean with fire. Taria awoke and realized, the demon had the same eyes as the sorceress.

"Master, we live to serve you." The chief spoke to the tall fiend.
"Then go forth and reap destruction upon... Nelphean." The creature hissed. "Since his children are too weak to do anything, I guess I will allow you to attempt to bring me his heart." The pit fiend laughed, oh, how she hated that creature Nelphean...
Back at the manor.
Sir, I think doom is about to sweep over the land.
"That is nice Caliburn"

He looked upon the body of Elias. And smiled. Not our of joy but simply out of approval. Elias died with a smile on his face. If one was to die, they might as well be satisfied with their own death. "Good luck in your afterlife Elias..." Twitching his ears to catch anything else he turned from the man. He knew the terms of battle as Saradin had told him. And it wasn't Eclipse's place to touch Elias. That seemed to belong to Saradin, who had intended to slay the evil that overtook Elias. Apparently he had succeeded. Walking slowly he made his way back to the great hall where he took a seat in the chair that was most often occupied my Aurahkah.

Walking in a streight line, Nelphean came up to the manor door, and easily opened it. The smell of the Abyss washed over Nelphean, as the croud of Vrook gathered about in front of him.
"For the Queen!" THe chief shouted as he charged the blind elf.
Nelphean pointed a finger, and said one word. The Vrook vanished.
"Ok, that didn't work..." The chief said, as he gathered his forces. Being returned to the Abyss so easily was very queer, most mages had to say at least six words... "Lets get Beelzelbrub" The Vrook screamed with glea, and fear.

One ear rotated over at the shout and then the wolf's eyes followed, then he turned his head to look over. Crossing his arms over his chest he quirked and eyebrow in Nelphean's direction. "What are you doing now Nelphean? And I brought Aurora back for you, she's safe and sound.
