Purity...
 

(OOC: Read "The Harsh bit of Defeat" first)

Obitus loomed closer to the small village. He estimated at least 35 children and 78+ adults. The village was relativly alive and many creatures could be seen walking in and out of buildings. His raiding party hid in the shadows and tree's. Awaiting the order to strike.

Obitus: "NOOOOOWWWWW!"

His order was corse and scratchy. But the creatures understood it clearly and leapt out of the foilage running on all fours towards the village. As they neared closer they leaped in the air and clutched onto the perimeter fence that surrounded it. A open entrance was down the middle but that was being guarded by 3 warrior Mudokons. The turned as they heard the hordes hit the walls and clamber up, their claws digging into the wood. Sounds of animals echoed in the guards ears and they ran to protect their village. Holding their spears high they took aim and threw at the on coming creatures. 3 spears was not enough however as more Reptilians came quiker than the Guards could run. The Reptils neared their prey and reared on their hind legs. They held a series of weapons. One held a club another a wooden pole with metal shards at the end. They charged the retreating guards and took them down with ease. Tearing into their flesh and devouring as much as they could before their stronger counter parts came and shared the kill. The other creatures who took the fence leaped down onto thatched roofs and screached. Some then leaped down and began the hunt for the children. Tearing on coming Mudokons apart as they charged out of their houses determined to save their village. One Mudokon came out his house holding a pitch fork and attempted to stab the Reptilian with it. The creature just laughed and grabbed hold of the Mudokons neck raising him off the ground it through him aside, allowing the other soldiers to drag him into the shadows and devour him. A nearby house was disturbed as a Reptile came through the roof and landed with a thud inside the parents bed room. The two children screamed and rushed outside the house only to be captured by a passing hunter and dragged away to the cave. The mother inside the house tried to rush out to save her children only to be dragged back the hunter inside her house and be tore into. Obitus approaced slowly, watching the carnage and the Reptiles rush out of the village holding at least one child under its arm. He walked up to the savaged corpse of the guards that had been killed. They had been stripped of their flesh and their bones were chewed and partly devoured. He smiled and walked onwards towards the entrance of the village. He saw a woman put up a fight only to have her skull shattered by a tail swung by a Reptile at the side of her. Another incident were he saw a man get dragged back inside his house by his legs and have his flesh ripped away by the giant talons of the killer. 2 men fighting one Reptile, both with sharpened pitch forks. Behind them crouched 3 little girls. The Reptile was lunging at the faces of the Mudokons but kept getting batted back with the forks. Finally after the Mudokons drew blood from him the creature backed away and crouched down, hissing and barking in its reptilious way. Obitus approached the men and spoke softly to them.

Obitus: "Give me your children. Their souls will be one with me and they shall experience power they never will have. Or have them killed and slaughtered with the rest of this village"

The Mudokons looked at each other and slowly lowered their pitch forks. Obitus approached with a out stretched arm to pat one on the shoulder. But he swung the fork up cutting his arm half way up. Obitus staggered back, shocked by what just happened.

Obitus: "So be it..."

He clicked his fingers and a Reptilian leapt from above them. Taking them both down it slammed its tail on ones chest, shattering his ribs and making him cough up a litre of blood in one go. While the other one got his throat torn out. Obitus stepped over them and grabbed 2 of the 3 girls and threw them to a oncoming Reptile.

Obitus: "Take them back"

The other little girl ran, screaming for her mother. A out stretched arm grabbed the child and clutched her tight to their chest. Shrikk smiled at Obitus and grunted.

Shrikk: "Shll sheee-ee goa baka?"

Obitus shook his head and took the little girl off him. Before rising off the ground and slowly floating to the highest building that was in the area. He landed on it softly. The little girl was struggling in his arms but he clutched her tight.

Obitus: "Bretheren. This is for you. This is YOUR purity. Take the meat off this little bitch and feel yourself grow in power and strength"

A scream came from a house and a Mudokon lady ran out. The gathering crowd of Reptilians stopped and stared as she screamed and then collapsed to her knees pleading. Obitus looked at the woman and smiled. Before flinging her off into the sea of black scales. The scream was deafening and the crowd of creatures parted to allow the body to hit the ground. It did so, with a thud. The child was still moving, but this time the screams turned to tears of pain. The mother still crying tried to push past the hard bodies of the Reptils but failed miserably. As the tears and sound of crying got louder so did the growls of hunger. Before the horde of hungry Reptiles dashed forward, dragging the girl in different directions and tearing pieces of meat off. The cries once again turned to screams as blood spattered everywhere. The snouts gouged the piece of flesh, tearing lumps and limbs off and devouring them whole. Inside Cyrus could see this. Although this didn't give him true power he remembered the day he did this in front of Spider and felt as if he was once again powerful. Meanwhile the mother had become a wreak, crying in a curled up ball she screamed: "Why-Why my little Jessica...WHY?" Her screams again got louder as the hungry horde turned their attentions to her and devoured the flesh on her body as they did the little 5 yr olds body. Obitus smiled and laughed. His head flung back and his laugh echoed in the night sky. The town was destroyed. Not a single living creature graced its shadows or its houses. Mudokon corpses littered the ground, each torn to pieces. This had not been his plan, although it was a bonus. But his plan was still incomplete. He still had the children's purity to devour...

(OOC: Please, nobody try and rescue the children. They are only put in this RPG to die...and thats what they will do. If any of your main characters do try and save them. I shall be forced to piss on your corpse while singing "Daisy-Daisy" and believe me..i will)

The sounds of whimpering children echoed through the cave. 34 Mudokon children littered the floor of the cave. All snuggled upto each other and crying into each others arms as a hungry horde of Reptilians looked on, licking their lips. Obitus walked in through the cave and address the children.

Obitus: "Children...children. I long for something you have in your possession. Your purity seeps of you. But, you waste it, were as you could use it, you WASTE IT!"

He floated up above them and spoke in his native tongue to the troops to arrange the children in a circuler formation. They obyed and each dragged a child to form a circle. When the children were in formation the creatures raised them above their head and bowed down. Still holding them in the air.

Obitus: "While you children run around getting along with your petty lives your purity slowly seeps into the ground...been lost forever. While it could be absorbed into my body, been forever presserved. Like you, you will have power you never would of had. Now come children, be one with me!"

He flung his arms up in the air. Electricity shot around the entire body and a bark of a Dragon echoed around the cave. The cave lit up and slowly the children started floating upwards. They squirmed and struggled in the air, gasping and sometimes shouting for their parents. But the struggles stopped and turned into sharp spasms as the electricity shot into the childrens chests. Sustaining them in mid air. The electricity flowed around their bodies and centred around the eyes. Causing the kids to grasp their eyes in shear pain. Cyrus watched and remembered the first time when this happened to him. The pain was awful even for him, and he had a high pain thresh hold. But it must of been horrific for the children. Cyrus saw their eyes glowing and watched as a bright stream of light flowed out of them. The childrens spasms got worse and their convulsions got quicker. The light focused around Obitus and whirled around him. Obitus smiled and put his hand out to touch the souls of the children. It flowed around his arm, warming it up.

Obitus: "Finally...FINALLY I WILL BECOME POWERFUL. WITH EVERY VILLAGE I TAKE THE CHILDRENS SOULS SHALL GIVE ME THE STRENGTH I NEED TO MAKE THIS LAND SUFFER!"

Slowly the souls and purity of the children, worked their way inwards. Gently brushing past his body. He moaned in ecstacy as he slowly absorbed it in his body. His eyes brightened and glowed and as he looked up, bright yellow electricity shot from his eyes. Making the entire cavern light up. The bodies of the dead children dropped to the ground. The Reptilians slowly edged forward, snarling and snatching the bodies up and tearing bits off them. Obitus looked around and smiled. It had begun...the turn of the century had begun. Dragons and Gods alike shall suffer the wrath of this one trapped lord of death.

Obitus: "LET US WALK TO THE NEXT VILLAGE. ALLOW US TO FEAST ON THE NEXT CREATURES THAT COME ACROSS US...LET US MAKE THEM SUFFER AND THEN WE SHALL START ON THE HIGHER ARCHY!"

The creatures listened to him speak and there was a moment of hesitation before the sounds of joy and glee spouted up from their throats. The sounds of agreement.

215 dead children littered the cavern. Their flesh torn from their bodies, their little bones lay shattered and scarred from the savage tearing and eating of the beasts. Obitus was powerful. And once again he felt like a God. His hordes were awaiting their next command. Since the attack on the village of Shalaléé they had taken 4 more villages. Devouring anything un-pure. Yet taking the souls of the purest. Obitus now had regained 85% of his powers. And his creatures and soldiers were strong and powerful. Muscles had grown and their agility had been improved. They were true warriors.

Obitus: "My brothers. We are about to embark on a battle that could leave us decaying in hell. Leave our souls been tortured by the creatures we had killed in the past. But, we could also embark on a journey that makes us powerful. Makes us the new rulers of this land and makes the Gods our petty slaves..."

He addressed his troops from a high rock that over looked the entire cave.

Obitus: "The Gods i sense are planning something...they want us to back down and they are planning something that will make our entire race crumble. They forget that if the Dragons that are left now die...the Gods will die to. Everything that believes in us is the means for our life. You brought me here by believing and i shall not forget that. You shall be rewarded...with the blood of a pure blood!"

He floated down from the rock and hovered over the Reptilians heads. They looked up at him smiling and grinning. Sometimes bowing their heads as he floated past. All 250 of them looked hungry. They wanted war and they wanted flesh. Obitus smiled and then said:

"When time compress' you shall then be able to Evolve. Time shall compress and your evolution process shall speed up. Turning you into a pure bred Dragon Warrior. But i need the power to be able to create the fold in time....are you willing to help me get this? Are you willing to sacrifice your lives for a better furture? Tell me...are YOU!?

The creatures barked and screeched loudly, leaping in the air and throwing the skulls of children high. Their answer was a blatent yes...
