Lyon was blasted back by the winds and the dagger was blasted out of his hand. The dagger went flying into the distance. Lyon thought "Finally... Stupid dagger" as he watched it leave.

He turned his head back to the fight and after steadying himself a minion had landed within a few feet of Lyon.

Lyon grabbed his dagger off the chain necklace and stabbed the minion with all his might. It pierced through the minion's neck with little effort. After a moment Lyon pulled it out of the dead minion's neck and started to walked towards the seductress with rage in his eyes.

Lyon couldn't think strait, the dagger he was given was forcing him to go against his will. He knew he was not the first and might not be the last. He had only one objective, to kill the seductress. What Lyon didn't know was he still didn't have full control of his body yet.

Darren dropping to the ground suddenly looked as if he disappeared. His shundo alongside of his wind magics made him look like a shadow as he systematically knocked off each of the seductress's bodyguards.

He looked to see the voidraider stand imposingly towards him. His hands then formed into claws and his teeth started to bare showing it's dark soul inside the apparition.

I can't really go up against that Darren thought, I don't even know what the hell that is he thought. But to his surprise he say Lyon making his way to the seductress. Good...

End it now Lyon! he ordered.

Lyon was only a few feet from her when he froze. No matter how much he forced himself he would not move. He was walking up behind her and when Darren had said to finish it she spun around and looked at him.

"So you planned on killing me, did you?" She said walking towards him. Lyon was still enraged, if only he could get to her...

She stood back a bit farther but just in reach of his Shundo. If he could focus enough maybe he could break free and kill her. He closed his eyes and concentrated enough. He burst towards her dagger in hand and slashed at her, he cut her arm and she screamed in pain and surprise.

She wasn't dead and he knew if he didn't hurry he would be frozen again. He decided to do the only thing left, he activated his weapon shift well over the distance required. With his pointed right at her it pierced her right through the heart. The look on her face as she was killed almost instantly was of pure shock.

Lyon shrunk his sword back to a dagger and fell to the ground shortly after, exhausted past his limit. He didn't care, she was dead and he was happy. He blacked out, dagger in hand and music still playing.

Darren saw it all the shundo, the weapon extension.

...who is this guy? I understand that humans who can go through portals by will alone are strong but this guy just did a shundo that was on par with mine, and that weapon extension is similar to Tao-

He suddenly ducked as he saw the claw of the voidwalker come at him.

It's still alive and still wanted to go.

Oh yea that's right with no master nothing is stopping you from destroying everything he thought, he turned to Lyon.

Just how much of him is still charmed he wondered as he looked at the growing voidwalker and the greatsword that was still impaled on the ground.

He shundo'd to where the greatsword was and pulled it out of the earth.

He turned back to see another claw come at his face. Using the great sword as his shield he angled it so that he was hit back to where Lyon was resting.

The spirit's claw hit Darren head on and curved inwards as it blew Darren away.

He flew back a few feet but enough to rouse Lyon.

Hey get up he said nugding him with his foot. We are not done yet here...he replied keeping watch of the monster.

The Voidwalker looked at them with contempt as it looked to the defeated minions and mistress on the ground.

Waving it's hands around Darren looked in awe as they were suddenly turned into shadows and was absorbed by the thing.

The blob of shadow stood 12 feet high and with a black barrier protecting it from the outside.

Tck Magic...

Lyon opened his eyes after being nudged and looked to where Darren was. He tried to get up and succeeded with great effort. "Wha..." Lyon stopped as soon as he saw the pure black shield and what he assumed to be what he saw summoned earlier. "How the heck is that thing still here?" Lyon said steadying himself.

Lyon held his dagger and although exhausted he knew this would take the remainder of his energy to face. "How exactly do we fight this?" He said as he gets in a fighting stance beside Darren.

That's when Jess decided to take action, she'd been watching from afar and felt a pang of guilt now for not joining earlier. She sent a boulder at the creature with her Earth Magic, then came in closer once she had her Earth Armor properly donned.

[Short and Sweet]

Darren not looking surprised at all then rushed forward aiming at the things legs trying to bring it down.

What I tell you? My stalker friend Jess! he yelled as he faced the demon still.

Hey That is a rather unique move you got there. Care to show it to me again? He said pointing at the greatsword he left near him.

"This looks like the shadow magic my best bud Mortimer uses. It should be extra vulnerable to light-based attacks... Unfortunately I don't know any, but I can provide some pretty good defense if you two think you'll need it." Jess was fairly experienced with shadow magic, having known Mortimer for a decade and dueled with him once or twice, as well as fighting alongside him on the battlefield a few times. She knew what Shadow magic was capable of.

"Shadow magic is versatile. Like water and ice magic the ultimate defence can turn into the ultimate offense in a split second... Don't rush in without thinking."

WHAT??? I can't hear you Jess!!! I'm too busy attacking without thinking!!! Darren replied

As he said that the demon's visage took shape and turned into a claw to swiped at Darren

oh no you don't he yelled as he punched the demon dramatically on the head.

The demon was in a daze by this manly punch of Captain Falcon proportions.

Lyon pierce this thing!!! He cried out.

Lyon nodded at Darren and shundo'd to the greatsword picking it up with little some effort. He picked it up and charged to the demon. After shrinking the greatsword to a dagger size he got within a meter of it and using the remainder of his energy he fully extended the greatsword to full length strait through the creature destroying it. Lyon only stood there in amazment at what had happened. Are... are we finished?" Lyon asked shaking from exhaustion.

Darren took a look at the creature and the giant cut the Great Sword made.

Yea shure looks like we are he said as he put away all his weapons.

Yea with that I suppose our little tour around tour is over he said matter o' factly

I suppose however you do need someone to help you set up first so that you can live here without a problem motioning at Jess.

Staying here is what you want right? If so welcome... to the magical world. This journey of yours has just begun he said looking annoyed.

Ugh I hate saying dramatic junk like that, he thought as left the two to get to know each other. He then headed back to Amelia to take them back home.

Sigh* Looks like my trip to the human world wasn't a waste after all

Lyon sighed in relief the only thing he heard Darren say was they were done. He collapsed for a final time that day and fell asleep, totally exhausted. Greatsword laying beside him, his dagger back on his chain necklace, and his music playing he was done for the day. Not a care in the world because he had successfully killed three things. His only thought as he slept, "What a great day."
