*back in memory, in the small kingdom of Oasis*
Lord
Henry! Something strange is going on here!
*sitting
on his throne* Relax, my trusted squire. What seems to be the
trouble.
A lot of
people are... well, just dying!
*raises
an eyebrow* Dying? How is this possible?
It looks
to be some kind of curse. A pretty powerful one.
*stands
up* I'll handle this. Please evacuate everybody to a safer place
while I call for the Oasis Guard.
*bows* Yes
your highness. *runs off*
I've
heard about this lately. Anything with ancient runes have been
experiencing curses.
*voice* You ever wonder why?
*takes
out sword* Who said that? Show yourself!
*jumps
from the celing* I did.
!!! Who
are you?
I
hear you have an Armlet of great power.
*reveals
his arms, which hold the Gold and Silver Armlets* Correction... I
have TWO armlets of great power. And if you don't explain to me
why you're here, I'll be forced to use their power.
...
I asked you a question earlier. Do you ever wonder why the people
are dying? Why the Dark Curse seems to be more frequent then
ever?
Of
course I wonder it!
And
don't you realize that on your right arm you have the power to
stop death.
...
What are you talking about? Even I cannot stop death.
Well,
I realize you can't stop your own death, since that will happen
in only a few minutes.
... Who
in blazes are you?
By
the time this fight is over, you will have forgotten my name. I
am Rulakir, Lord of the rising Orakian Army created to destroy
the Death Dragons that threaten this universe. However, in order
to remove a threat it has occured to me that I have to make a
few... sacrifices.
You
don't mean...?
*pulls
out his sword which glows light-blue* Sorry, Lord Henry. This is
nothing personal, just business. *without as much as a
split-second warning, slashes off the right arm of Lord Henry
with his sword*
*screams
in pain as the Silver Armlet falls to the ground with his arm,
but amazingly no blood* Who... what are you?
I
decided that you should live for your country. All I wanted was
the Armlet. And I knew you wouldn't give it to me.
But...
the Silver Armlet... it's evil. If the two armlets aren't joined
together then all hell will break loose.
*picks
up the Silver Armlet* That's the plan. Well, now that I have the
Silver Armlet I suppose I can stop with the Dark Curse on this
city. Be warned though; if anybody tries to enter Lachute I will
destroy this city in a blaze of fury. Again though, you have
already forgotten my name, just as I had suspected.
...
I'll never forget your name, LORD DRACO!
*thinks
to self* Excellent. The plan is going perfectly. He thinks I'm
Draco. I'm glad I learned how to use Mind Manipulation. *aloud*
Yes, I am Lord Draco. But this is the last time you'll see me
with my armor on. *disappears*
... I'm
gonna need a little help from the Dragoons. Draco is going down!
