• In just a small amount of time, what was a calm lake became a storm of mist, ice, and lightning. Diana looked around her, only to see mist blocking her view, swirling in the air, and ice flakes battered her face. A roar could be heard, shrilling, yet loud, rivaling even the sound of the thunder above her. She could see nothing, not even the faint of shadow of TotallyNotThor who was once beside her, and now nowhere to be seen. Instead, screams met her ears, and mist covered her gaze, flashes of lightning briefly coming into view above her. Ben10Howard flew past her, emerging out of nowhere from the mist in front of her, and zooming past behind her, screaming as he flew. Diana tried following him, only to be blocked by a wall of ice flakes. Snowy could be see struggling with a huge flying figure above them. An outline of Snowy could be seen in the mist nearby, and as Diana tried running towards the warrior, Snowy was lifted off the ground by the figure and carried off, the screaming covered by a huge reptilian roar. Cell’s voice of panic could be heard... “I’ve lost visual of Snowy!” His mechanical voice was worrying. Meanwhile ImmaDrizzit’s grunts of pain could be heard nearby. The sounds of scream echoed all around, greeted by a high shrill, and a flurry of mist and snow. Hammerfist could be seen frantically phasing in and out, barely dodging the unseen creature’s tail. Eventually after a few minutes, the group had gathered together, but they had sustained major injuries, with ImmaDrizzit’s armor cracked in several places, Snowy bleeding on their shoulder, and Notorious sporting a huge red gash on his chest. The mist around the team began to thicken, and the thunder began to deafen their ears. Above them, the sky could not be seen through a swirling and menacing blanket of mist, and around them, walls of wispy flakes of ice and droplets. A familiar shrill greeted the team, and MagicSpaceKitty propped herself up, her face covered with ice flakes. Scott was on her shoulder, fire in his mouth. Onyxia and TotallyNotThor lowered their stance to a crouch as they looked around, determining the position of the beast. The wall of mist behind the team parted to reveal a giant serpentine monster, flying through the air. Very few of it could be seen, as it zoomed right over the team. Notorious was swept away by the wind, and he struggled to get up, only to be snatched up by the dragon above him and carried beyond the wall, unseen. “Notorious!!!” Cell’s panic could be heard thoroughly now. But the mist responded with a simple scream and a shrill of satisfaction. TotallyNotThor let out a brief whistle, summoning Onyxia to him, and he began to make his way to the mist. Phoenix began to yell in anger as he saw the druid walk away... “What’re you doing?!?” “Killing this thing. Join me if you dare.” The Druid’s response left Phoenix motionless, but the Hellraiser immediately rushed to the Druid’s side. MagicSpaceKitty began to follow him, and the three stood directly in front of the wall of mist, swirling and blinding. Cell began to jog up to the trio, but was stopped by Hammerfist... “You get a single ounce of water in your circuits, and you’re done...” Hammer’s stern voice froze Cell, and MillionBlue sprinted past the two, towards the trio. “I’ll lead them...” said the experienced warrior as he stood at the edge of the mist. With the trio now joined by a warrior, TotallyNotThor began to whisper a few words. These words were of an unknown language, but they seemed to calm the mist. The group could see a few feet in front of them now. MillionBlue was the first to charge into the mist, listening for the dragon’s shrill. The other three followed, and soon the tram behind them was lost in the mist, and they stood right in the middle of Myst’s hunting ground. The familiar shrill pierced the air, and Million yelled loudly as he crouched down... “Duck!” The group sprawled to the ground as a blue figure zoomed above them, its claws scraping MagicSpaceKitty’s cloak. The wind accompanying it, however, sent the group flying in all directions, lost in the mist, split up, and ultimately, vulnerable. • MagicSpaceKitty couldn’t see anyone. She lost sight of Phoenix, Million, and TotallyNotThor. Only Scott was at her side, growling. She got up, a flicker of flame residing in her right hand. A high ear-piercing shrill could be heard to her right. She prepared to duck, but nothing zoomed over her. She got up from her crouched position to see a huge hovering figure looming over her, its teeth dyed with red, and its crimson tongue dangling off the side of its mouth. Its tail was a fin, and it sported no legs, but it did have two arms, each armed to the brim with all manners of spikes and claws. Around its face was a spiked frill, now puffed up and in full view. It flew closer to the Mage, until she could feel the wind from its wings. Scott stood in front of his owner, snarling. MagicSpaceKitty tried to scoop the pet up, but it refused... “Scott! What’re you doing?!?” The small wyvern snarled in response, and it began gnashing its teeth as it lunged for the dragon, about seventy times its size. MagicSpaceKitty let out a fountain of magic, crackling underneath Myst, burning some of the dragon’s scales off. Meanwhile Scott was climbing up the writhing dragon’s back, avoiding claw swipes as it jumped on top of the dragon’s head. Myst’s teal blue eyes were filled with anger, and with one tail swipe it sent MagicSpaceKitty flying. Scott, however, now on top of Myst’s head, took a swipe at the dragon’s eye, hitting it with no stray marks. What was once a blue eye of anger was now a blue bloody mess, as blue substance oozed out of it. Myst swiftly grabbed the wyvern off of its head. Scott whimpered and tried to claw his way out, but to no avail. With one hefty snarl, Myst threw the wyvern into the mist behind it, its wails echoing beyond the mist. MagicSpaceKitty had tears flowing down her face, as she saw her companion disappear right in front of her eyes... “Scott!!!!!” Her voice echoed with sadness, and she drooped down on the ground, motionless and awestruck. She felt a tingle of rage... a familiar tingle of rage... a sense of power.... Her nails began to extend. Her mind throbbed with pain. She could see her vision go red. She looked back up at the dragon, and it seemed like a small threat, nothing more than ant to here. As she began to walk towards the dragon, she whispered a few words in her new raspy voice... “First you kill Notorious, then my Wyvern.... now.... I’m going to kill you...”
