I woke up in a cage with the raptors. I was drugged!

Kurtis came up to me, on the other side of the bars.

"Tatatataaa! Poor Eva, you let your guard down. The higher you fall. Listen, you fought well, you were brave and you're exceptional.

No one up until now has been able to train beings like these. Your skills as a tawny trainer are exceptional.

Yet you knew that ALL blows were allowed. Why is that? WHY????

I think you have too good a background to be here.

We'll be fair to you and the holo-seekers. We're going to let you go, but without your Raptors. Finance, finance, finance again and again and again.

Cast shield

Cast Strength

Cast force on raptor

Cast shield on raptor

cast counter-poison

"Kurtis, you're too bragging! You finance people sell the bear before you kill it. I'm behind bars, but I haven't given up yet!"

-HAHAHAHAHAHA, look at you! -HAHAHAHAHA, look at you! Miss thinks she's gonna get out of her birdcage. You've got a sense of humour.

These bars are indestructible and would stand up to a titan.

Cast Magic Unlocking

"Mr Kurtis, besides being a circus tiger trainer, I was an excellent magician. And no lock can resist me."

"But it is in code."

I opened the gate and showed him: open, closed, open, closed. It's as simple as that and I push him into the cage.

"Closed! Simple, isn't it? I'm a magician, I've always said it and nobody believed me!"

"ARRRH, please, get me out of here, you can't do this! I'll pay you whatever you want!"

"Anything goes, but rest assured, they're tame and I'm not ordering them to attack. But, Mr Kurtis, you're the saboteur? You wanted me dead, didn't you?"

"You're a World assassin."

"No, his secretary and I winked at the raptors who made a hearty meal this morning.

"And when it was done, I opened the cage and said, 'We're going to help Darkia. She's from Arcadia, too.

"Darkia, can you hear me? Today's the day! You have allies, have you met them?"

"Yes, thanks for the Python and the Ligon."

"I'm sending you six over-boosted raptors. One of them has a necklace for you. Crack all three stones, one for shield, one for strength and one for invisibility. The other necklace, I'll activate it, but if I can't... detach the stones from the bronze holder. Point the structure to the north and replicate it with your blood. Place the stones connected to your blood and I'll activate the transporter. Make sure all your body parts are inside the circle or it won't activate."

"Good shit and let the killing begin."

Security guards came by shuttle bus to arrest me for the murder of Kurtis but I hadn't finished the game. The first shuttle landed and the ground beneath it collapsed and it flipped the engines off into a precipice.

BANG, big explosion.

Another shuttle approached and I took a machine gun from Kurtis and fired on the shuttle. "Surrender!"

I said, "The game's not over yet! All shots are allowed!"

The spectators approved and they voted for me to continue.

But the shuttles and the bloodhounds wanted me dead and the shuttle continued on to me. The bullets ricocheted and a side door opened and a soldier with a machine gun pointed at me.

Then a knife was thrown with a magic missile at the same time and as this was not visible, even under a camera, the knife and missile punctured the shuttle which exploded.

and went up in flames in the jungle.

Kim

The other one wanted to turn around and I snapped my fingers: Explosive glyphs...

The last shuttle ended up just like the other one, in a torch.

Kim: "Hello, what do you say? Kurtis was eaten? Eva's in the race again? "

He threw his com on the floor of the jeep.

"Trevis, your girlfriend's back in the game. The shuttles are dead and the ammo dump exploded. This one's getting expensive! I hope you can talk some sense into her or take her out."

Finally, she adds some spice to the adventure, he laughed.

He picked up his comms and called his men: "Do you have the armor? OK, I need it now!"

A pillar of light hit the ground from the sky and the cars drove towards the pillar of light.

I was running with my raptor buddies to the pillar of light where Darkia was also.

Drrring??? My comm!

"Hello dear Eva, you really amaze me and I think I'm going to review my judgment of you again in a positive way.

I have huge plans, much more ambitious than World, If you want to join me, now is the time. I've had dragon blood in me for generations and I plan to capture this magnificent specimen. If you become my wife, I'll make a great version of you, even better."

Mr. Kim, you don't know anything about me but I have some surprises for you, too. Unfortunately, to each his own secrets."

Kim: "Ah, she hung up on me!"

"DARK, we must capture the dragon dead or alive."

The valley was finished now and the vehicles were useless. The cages were unloaded and a temporary camp was set up.

"Are you ready, Darkia? They're here!"

"Yes, dear friend! ""

"Well, it's easy to recognize me, I'm the only woman."

ARrrgghh! Nonnn!

I'm having spasms! The transformation!

It hurts like hell to keep my human form! Well, I relax my eyes and my fiery eyes reappear, the pain fades a little more.

I reach the gorge and the vehicles are abandoned. A huge package is on the spot and huge footprints in the earth! What are they?

I'm placing a teleport here, near an escape point. Then I go in and release the Raptors.

I follow the path and I hear a rush. I get closer and, oh, NOONN, poor Ligon, a terrible wound has ripped him open and they take their last breath. I close his eyes and say a prayer for him to have a happier life later.

What wound, it looks like a cauterized cut. A sword? Gigantic!

"Darkia, beware, the ligon has been gutted by a giant sword, something is not right. Hide, hide in the mud or something."

"OK Vermi"

Crushed men hung from trees are visible but as I walked forward I saw a dead snake head, a giant head killed and oh no, the Python Molure, my friend, the princess of the jungle. Quickly, her belly! I opened and I saw 2 eggs in the belly of the poor slain beast. I took the two eggs and put them in my storage bracelet.

What a massacre.

Meanwhile, one of the mercenaries walked forward and tracked fresh tracks with a differential infrared camera and you could see everything that had been stirred, crushed or moved in the last 10 days. A real path opened up and they followed the track.

Another one used a hormone detector. It showed like a scent net and the direction to follow as well.

Another was following the progress mapped by satellite.

Night vision goggles etc.

But the THING advanced before his men. invisible, impalpable, implacable.

It stalked, it stalked, and like a scorpion that had locked its prey, nothing and no one could stop it.

The men following the THING were terrified but happy to be on the right side.

HIhh HHAARR HAAARR HAAARRRRRRRR arrrrhhhhg!

One of the men started scratching and drooling and foaming. He spasmed and his limbs began to swell, cold sweat and blood in his eyes.

THE poison! Help, I've been stung!

A rescue drone arrived to pick up the unfortunate man but he died in the transport.

Trevis inspected the surroundings and said, "Ingenious! The thorns are covered with the poison of the scorpion dragon.

It was dark and I released my wings in half and flew from tree to tree silently through the canopy and silently arrived behind the last mercenary. They were advancing in single file along the gorge.

I took out my sharp claw and with one hand I covered his mouth and with the other I slit his throat and with my sword I pierced his lung so that no sound could escape. I took the corpse farther, out of the high path, and to frighten them I tore off the head and the spine, and hung it on a branch, connected by its guts to the mechanism left by Darkia.

One of the men saw that he was no longer being followed, and called Trevis.

There he is," cried the man, pointing to the corpse with his torch.

The mercenary approached the corpse: "WHAT HORROR, WHO HAS DONE THIS?"

He touched the skull and his foot touched a rope that released a branch stretched behind the tree and on the branch a rake of bamboo daggers that relaxed and pierced the guy's chest in several places. He couldn't say anything more, his lungs pierced and he trembled as he looked desperately at Trevis as blood spurted from his mouth before dropping his neck one last time forever.

Trevis: "What a sadistic monster, he must have known we were coming!"

He closed the dead man's eyes.

A drone took the body away.

The men panicked and one of them, walking along an obvious and ill-prepared trap, stuck his foot in and was poisoned. His fate was to join the previous unfortunate one.

I was farther away and had reached Darkia. We were about to slash and undermine the forces of the enemy.

So I cast a spell of strength and shield and invisibility on both of us.

We were secant to the line and flew very fast and cut the line short and each one caught one of the men and slit their throats in the process. Of the following ones they saw only a draft catching the men.

The bullets whistled but we were hiding and they gathered back to back. Then they ran across the plain in front of them and the raptors intervened to peck a few men.

they didn't understand that it was the raptors that had decimated the mercenaries.

A panic-stricken wind caught them and they all fled separately.

Only Kim, Trevis and two elite hunters remained.

Then I reached a dead end where the remaining mercenaries were being blown to pieces, and Darkia was behind me, hiding, the raptors on the run, and suddenly I had spasms and pain.

untenable, I was going to change back at any moment.

Quickly I planted the teleportation stones, laid the completed circle on the ground and smeared it with my own blood.

Darkia began to blink, the invisibility spell ending.

Trevis ran towards me: Eva, come on, the monster is coming, it's going to kill you. He reached out my hand.

- "Trevis, answer me truthfully, did you bring Darkia here or another mercenary?"

"Will you help me save Darkia? The Dragon Lady, her daughter is under my protection! We must save her!"

But they're monsters! Come on, I love you Eva, I beg you, we'll save the dragon later, but come here, he'll kill you!!! I'm begging you, Eva. I'm begging you!"

"Eva? Are you okay?"

"Trevis, are there cameras in here?" I asked.

"No, not in this part, we're out of the zone."

I lifted my head and my tail out, my eyes shone and the wings grew, and then I began to grow and grow and grow and grow, and my face was that of a huge beast.

"DEAR TREVIS, AM I STILL A MONSTER? DID YOU SAY THAT YOU LOVE ME? CHOOSE YOUR SIDE! DRAGONS OR MEN?"

Trevis paled and said the word I didn't want to hear from him...

"Monster, and to think I slept with you! You betrayed us all."

I never betrayed the dragons! GROAAARRR

He took his rifle and shot me with armour-piercing ammunition.

"It hurts me, you know? Honey!"

Hahaha, you're in the same situation as me, facing my father who wanted to devour me two days after I was born. Bug, you're just a bug. I KNOW IT WAS YOU WHO KIDNAPPED AND BROUGHT DARKIA HERE.

We dragons are much stronger and more powerful beings than you. We've done nothing to you yet and you attack us for free. We're not taking your livestock. We're even trading for mutual gain. We could have done great things together, but you've ruined everything!

You've already squandered the resources for pure vanity. You disgust me.

Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill you, Trevis! One!

Mr. Kim: "BRAVO, Mrs. EVA, or rather VERMITHRAXA!" CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP

"This man's a wreck," and watching him join the other two mercenaries, I sweep all three of them off their feet with one swipe of my tail.

Trevis, go to hell!

their bellies lost their guts, all three of them gutted by my tail sword.

Mr. Kim was in his autonomous armor as a samurai. Suddenly, he found his smile and sense of humor again. Happy to have two prey for the price of one but also a potential partner.

"How I would love to have you as my wife, Mrs. Vermithraxa. You are beauty incarnate. A beautiful woman and a magnificent creature. I could set all of your race free and find a planet all to myself but I would so love to start a new life with you.

"Darkia: I don't understand what he's saying but I recognise him, he's the one who killed my husband. He gave me the same speech and he captured me. He came before the Vulcanus. He's a liar!"

GRRRRRRRR.

"It pains me that you are reacting like this, but rest assured, when I have trained you, as you are more intelligent and powerful than Darkia, I will make you my wife. I will pass my dragon's blood through you and resurrect my bloodline.

So I am what you might call a hero but I was a villain, a villain and I am the last, time and old age not affecting me because of my dragon blood."

He put on his helmet and drew his flaming sword...

I was hit in the chest and the pain was dazzling, I was ejected backwards, my shield resisted but bent and my scales were damaged.

Blood flowed between my front plates.

GROOAAAR, I blew and the flames slid down his suit. it resisted the heat.

Darkia threw herself on him to knock him down but she was greeted by a knee bump in the muzzle breaking her jaw and sending her squealing further away.

I was bad, very badly there!

What to do???

He's fast! Can I go fast enough with magic?
