Dear Hopefully-Reading-Readers
Hello there everyone! ^-^! I have claimed the title of the Son of the Snarbolax, and I want some help to write some wonderful dramatic artistic fan fiction/lore. I will start with my character, (named Seatus [sorry, I don't try to be vain, but I did take the title. If it makes you feel better, just use your names too if you want XD])and I am eager to find some more characters and type up a good tale. It WOULD be preferable if characters were also powerful and of the wolver race (no more Snarbolaxes because there are only 4 in the world. The Rabid Snarbolaxes are my brothers and The Snarbolax is my father)(it would also be preferable if tales mainly revolved around the Wolver regions of the Clockworks)

Name: Seatus

Race: Snarbolax

Personality: Serious, upbeat at times, and helpful

Appearance: Looks like a taller, more humanoid Snarbolax(which Snarbolax? His Father), though sometimes turning back to his four legs like a wolver, primitive as his anger instincts cause him to do without control

Bio: Seatus was born (or you might say put into sudden existence by the Core)into a pile of dead Knights' swords, and devoured the swords and gained the knowledge of the previous owner. His father (The Snarbolax) taught him along with his brothers, the Rabid Snarbolaxes, but back then Seatus looked like an ordinary Alpha Wolver, and the only way to tell him apart from the rest was his pair of red three-eyed eyes, and because he didn't molt as fast as his brothers they stuck him as an outcast and the Snarbolax Family abandoned him. He molted thirteen weeks after that happened and took the three Snarbolax thorns his Father had accidentally left behind, he crafted himself a shield in which his Father might see him through (Barbarous Thorn Shield) and decided to join these "Knights" and travel to the Core that gave him his existence.

Yes, that is my character, so add some and I will start writing chapters.

Hey.

Hey guys.

The overall concept can be the same, in this case Snarbolax, without being a repeat or copy. As long as the storylines are different. And characters. If one has a fire Wolver named Tickles and the other has a freeze Wolver named Chuckles that cuts it pretty close. If one is about growing up and living life and the other is the same, they better have different experiences in life.

Now hug.

Chapter 1

The Beginning:
I opened my eyes. Everything was so blurry. What was I seeing? I blinked a few times, trying to clear away film over my eyes. A dark shadow loomed over my head. I reached out, but as soon as I touched it I heard a loud clap, like thunder. I pulled my hand back, and wondered what it could have been. Jagged, crooked thorns protruded from my back and tail, all the same color as my honey-like furr

I tried moving my tail, and a clatter of metal falling on metal came. Around me, swords stained with rust and red, were piled or dug into the ground. When I looked at them, a deep hunger overtook me. I crunched on them ravenously, one after the other. Images came into my mind, images of creatures decorated in metal and wielding great swords and shields. Words whispered in my head. Knowledge brightened the dark corners of my mind.

And there, right before me, as if materializing from the shadows themselves, was a great beast that looked like a bigger version of myself, only cloaked in a great darkness. Next to him, standing on either side, were version of him, though these had foam spewing from their mouths and green-tipped furr instead of red, like the big middle one. A voice whispered in my head, "Come, my son, and let me teach you how to get on the in world and survive these newly-happened creatures called "Knights".

I crawled over to them, their darkness welcoming me. And then I knew what I was as a voice whispered to me in my head.

New Info

I forgot to mention. I will be making the character stories and find a way to make them all meet up. So separate stories becoming one at a certain point. I will try to work with what you give me in the Bio. If you want them to meet up at the beginning that's just fine and just say so. I REALLY want to do this guys, and your contribution to the story would be awesome. ^_^

Chapter 2

The Suspicions

I pierce my claws straight through the hide of a tree. I wiggle my fingers and feel the splinters that have formed from fast impact. My ear twitches as I here the whispering of a Wolver. I glance behind and see two Wolvers walking together, one whispering and the other giggling. I see them glance at me and shut their traps. Good, at least I am a little respected.

I pull my paw out of the wood, and brush it on my coat. I hear more whispering and look through the hole I had just created in the tree. My brothers are stretching their necks to each side of my Father's head, whispering in his ears. He glances at me, looking guilty. I hide, before my brothers see me. I think I know what they were saying to him, but I can't be sure.

A moment later, I hear the twigs snapping to the north, the sounds they make dimming. I see my Father alone, so I guess the twigs snapping were my brothers. He gives me such a look that I freeze in place. His eyes say two things. He is guilty for what he is thinking, and yet he is ashamed and disgusted by me.

I glance to the east and west and before I get a look the dark shadows seem to have never been there. I know there are others on this planet, but these are different than the Gremlins or Strangers. These were here when the Clockworks were being formed, and possibly when the planet was as well. I think my family knows about them, but when I am about to ask they always have to leave somewhere and go do something. They know the question is coming, and they are making preparations to make sure I don't have the chance to ask them.

I glance around once more nervously. They are watching. They always have.

Chapter 3

Abandoned

I wait in a very thick part of the woods. My brothers said they would be back soon. It has been two days since they said that. My stomach growled, because this was the only time my brothers had actually been kind to me, and I wanted to be loyal, so I stay curled up in the same spot for the past two days.

My Father would have at least checked up on me by now. I also notice that I haven't seen any Wolvers either. Finally giving up, I stand and wander to the area Wolvers usually gather. Not a living thing is there.

Panicking, I run through the forest, calling, screaming, crying. No reply comes, not even the coo of a snipe or the breeze running through the trees. I run faster and faster. Then I am amongst them. These Knights I have heard rumors about are real. They look at me, calculating how long it would take them to end me.

But then I stand, on two legs, and I look back. In their eyes I see coldness toward my race, and that they blame me for others' faults. But I see glimmers of hope that I may be a comrade, that I will become one of them in a way. But I turn, and I run off. Maybe another time in another place. But for right now, I need to know why I am abandoned.

Chapter 4

The Skolver
(different character)
(13 weeks after The Abandonment)

I run through the woods. What did I just see back there?! It's eyes were like flames, It's claws catching, It's jaws biting! I pant, wishing my furr was not so bright. I weaved through the forest jumping and ducking. It had a cloak of darkness that burned my eyes. What could It have been? I pounce into a fallen hollow log, my fur pressing against the sides of the confined space.

I hear It whiffling through the tulgey wood, calling out in a language that left my ears ringing. It was looking for something, but I could tell clearly it wasn't me. The log rolls over and I instincively yelp. It stops, and crawls close to the log in which I hide. I see It crawl down to It's belly and peak in and I see that It isn't so bad. It, no, HIS, eyes were brimming with tears. He says in the common language known by al Wolvers, "Have you seen others that look like me, except bigger?"

He is like me, looking for his family. I shake my head and stutter as I say, "I could help you look for them, if your okay with that," He nods, and with a whip of his wrist breaks the log in two so I can crawl out.

"What is your name? I have never seen a Wolver that looked like that before." He says to me. I reply, "That's funny, I haven't seen your kind either. My name is Lily. I am looking for my Father and my two sisters." He gives me a look, like he has seen a terrible omen, and says, "Thats's kind of a coincidence, because I am looking for my Father and my two brothers." I stare at him, wondering what kind of Fates are at work right now. But I say, "I promise to help you if you help me." He gives me the hint of a nod, beckons me to follow, and we run through the forest, like birds in a green sky.

Chapter 5

The Encounter
(Seatus)

My lungs burn while I run through the woods along with my new companion. She gives me uneasy glances now and then, but it doesn't bother me. She is nice, I can see that. It's understandable that she would look at me. My full Snarbolax coat has grown in, and I am still looking for my family.

The path leads in two direcctions, one straight ahead and the other to the right. "I think it's time to split up," I say to Lily, "If the path is clearly showing that they won't join back up, let's turn around and meet back at this point." Lily replies, "Okay, if we run into trouble, call out," I nod to her, and we run down the paths, I to the right path and she takes the straight.

I run for a half hour, the paths staying parallel to each other, and it's then that I hear a call, but it doesn't sound like Lily. It comes from ahead of me, and I come to a dead end in front of a cliff. I look up and see my Father looking down at me from the top. "Why do you pursue us like this, Seatus?" I stare at him, confused. "How is it that you haven't guessed yet? WE DON'T WANT YOU!" his words cut right through me. "But I, I thought," I stutter. He laughs, "Why would we want YOU? You're not even smart enough to have guessed. You poor creature." there is something in his eyes that says otherwise, but I can't see it clearly. "I bet you can't even climb up this simple CLIFF!" he kicks some pebbles off to have them hit my head, but I catch each one as it falls. I dig my claws into the cliff, like a hot knife through butter.

He steps back, but his grin still mocks me. I climb up there within a minute, and stare into his eyes to see what it is. He glances down the cliff, and something startles him and he instantly melts away into the shadows. I look, and see Lily staring up at me. "WHAT WAS THAT!?" she screams, obviously disturbed, "Was that YOUR DAD!?" tears well up in her eyes, and I jump down from the cliff right in front of her.

I give her a hug, trying to comfort her. She accepts the hug, and tugs me tighter than I would expect. She is sobbing from shock, because she saw something in my Father's eyes as well. My Father had lied about every word he said. His eyes had cut her harder than I, for Lily had a soul. But his eyes were clear. They were filled with pain.

Chapter 6

The Knights
(Seatus)

I walk through the forest, with Lily in tow. I smell something is amiss, but choose to ignore it. Lily's eyes are red and swollen from crying last night. I worry that her strong feelings for things will lead to her demise.

I hear something in the bushes, almost like a stream of breathed words. The Knights jump out from the bushes around us. Some wear triumphant grins, others walk swaggerly around me and Lily.

"Well, gentlemen, looks as if we got some rare Wolvers here," he smirks, thinking that he has already won us. He speaks again, slower this time. "Just a pair of dumb, thick-headed Wolvers."

He tries giving me a box on the ear, but I just tilt my head. His face contorts into wrath, for he misses so clearly for putting too much force into the blow. He tries to kick me, and I step to the side.

"Lily, take them down," I say, and in a moment his team is separately tied to each tree. The Knight that has so clearly mocked me takes a step back as I stand on two legs. I paralyze him with the strongest stare I have, look into his face, and see a coward hiding behind armor and words.

I give him the box on the ear he would have given me, and the kick he thought I deserved for simply being alive. Lily pulls me back, but while she does I say unto him, "Don't you ever think that you are better than any kiving creature, DON'T YOU EVER!" and with that I let Lily take me into the forest, and leave the Knight trembling in fear on the ground.

(thanks for reading, sorry I couldn't write this chapter sooner. It's been a busy day and I am typing this on a Wii U)

Chapter 7

The Encounter (part II)

It is dark out, but know those red eyes so well that I don't need to guess who it is as a giant cloud-like darkness edged with red creeps toward me. I am not scared, more suprised than scared. "Hello, Seatus," he says in a deep voice that seems to echo lightly around me.

"Why would you lie about not wanting me," I ask outrightly, "When I will end up asking you the question anyhow?" He looks ashamed and stares at the ground while fidgeting. "I don't want what happened to us, to happen to you."

I am taken aback. What he did was for my well-being? "Why would you have to hurt me so bad to keep me protected? What do you mean, 'what happened to us happen to you'?

"Can't tell you, I JUST CAN'T! Here is what you must do. Your brothers are out looking for you to end you. The only protection you will have is with the Knights. You and the girl must join them, she needs to because it will be the only way for her to find her Father." and with that, he melts back to the shadows and I am left alone with my thoughts.

I relay all that just happened to me to Lily. "He said that we need to join the Knights, and that it will lead us to your Father." She is shocked by this information, but nods. "If it is the best option, then let's go for it."

Chapter 8

The Joining

We pounce from the trees and land in the midst of the Knights. They step back, some pointing swords at us. "Don't you even think about it," I say to a particularly stupid Knight poking his sword to barely touch the furr of my neck. He steps back in shock, "They talk! They talk!," and he repeats this ovee and over and finally passes out from lack of air.

"Let me through please. Excuse me, pardon. Thank you. Move along." says an extremely tall Knight. "Who in Core's name are you?!" he exclaims. "We want to join you," I say to him. He chuckles, as if I have made a funny joke. "And why," he says, "Would we allow that?"

In response, I do a twirl, make my thorns temporarily longer during the twirl, and stop. The tall Knight looks like he is about to burst out laughing, then notice his comrades' blades on the ground, leaving the hand in their hands as they stare at me in disbelief. Then Lily does a whip of her tail and the Knights (except for the tall one) are on the ground, knocked out from the strong blow of her tail.

The tall one is shocked, but he nods his head quickly. "I will go to Feron, he will gladly take you into our ranks, especially for your," he pauses, "unique abilities." he says, and with that he turns and walks quickly to a big green tent.

Chapter 9

The Others
(Lily)

We walk through the training area the morning after Feron approved of our allegiance with the Knights. He thankfully didn't ask too many questions about why we would come.

Seatus thrashes in his bed across the room from mine. His furr glistens with sweat as he twists and turns. I run over and wake him up by tugging hard on the furr of his head.

"What was that for?!" he exclaims, rubbinghis head. I put my hand over his mouth before he wakes the Knights room right next to ours.

I whisper in his ear, "You were having a nightmare, I had to wake you. He stares at me for a moment, then gives me a tight hug. "I'm sorry you had to see that," he whispers, his voice cracking, "I just know they fear us, and when in fear, people destroy what makes them weak."

I look at him, " You think the Knights will try to kill us?" just then the door opens, and Seatus pulls me to the wall and he faces me and protects me as bullets ricochette off the steel walls, and his back absorbs the bullets, not harming him at all.

Seatus flexes his shoulders, and thorns spew from his back and skewer the assailants. He steps back from me, and I swear I see a flash of a blush on his nose before he turns around, holding out his arms forward, a long thorn running up the sides of each arm, the thorns each edged wickedly. A black form, made up of millions of black wisps steps in, looking over the dead bodies of three gremlins armed with Blitz Needles.
The terrifying form's head turns and looks at us, and see not a living or dead creature, but an impulse, to end all, to be the never-ending chaos it once was and IS.

A bright flash everywhere, me and Seatus crumple to the ground as the creature vaporizes.

The Others (continued)
(Seatus)

I should have told her about the dream before anything else, so that she would be prepared, but everything happened so fast. I don't know where we are, but we are here with others amongst the Wolver race. The was Lily's Father and my Father, and there was another giant Wolver that had furr of molten and fire coarsing arouhd itself. We, the Cubs, are kept separated from the Fathers, who are huddled whispering together. My brothers are attacking me, but I am holding them off easily. Lily is also defending against her sisters, showing no strain at all. I learned that these fiery Wolvers are called Vogs, but for some reason there are only two twin Vog Cubs are present. We are at some unknown depth where a pure white structure is stand in a small puddle surrounded by stairs. It radiates a power, not divine or evil, but it protects. This is our solid rock in the sea of chaos. This is Sanctuary. And I learned that these "Others" this "Swarm" are trying to destroy this place and the Core. They won't succeed, I will stop them.

(The Snarbolax)

"Why would the Swarm awaken now?! Why would it try to harm my child?!" The Skolver spoke. "Oh you think thank your child is the only one that matters, WHAT ABOUT SEATUS?!-" "BOTH OF YOU, SILENCE!" The Vog exclaimed, and we knew he had lost his child to the corruption of the Swarm. "We can't let this happen anymore, for too long the Swarm has plagued us, controlled us, and even killed us. For too long they have drawn in other worlds to bring us misfortune. I won't have it anymore. We know the Prophecy of the Sprites, and we will do what we have to...to...-" I put a paw on Vog's back "To get your child back from and destroy the Swarm" I finish for him. "But to get to the Swarm," Skolver says, "We must first get the children to the Core."

Chapter 12

Day 1

Me and Lily bolt upright in our beds. The two dead gremlins are still laying on the floor. I look around, but thankfully the Swarm creature is gone.

"Were we really at that place," Lily says slowly, "and if we were there, is it possible to get back?" I can't do anything but nod, "Yes, we were in that place, I remember it too."

A Knight on sentry duty takes a turn around the corner, and before he sees anything, I absorb the two gremlins into my never-ending darkness. "Morning," he says in a friendly tone. "Morning," I reply back, adding a small wave. He changes direction and turns the corner again to continue patrol.

Lily looks at him beamingly as he turns out of sight. "He was nice," she says, quite happy. It is the first kind thing a Knight has done for me or Lily. I know we won't forget it.

We go to the Training Center, walking boldly through public. We don't care what they think of us, we aren't here for them. Or I should say I don't. Lily keeps her eyes on the ground before her feet, not glancing up at all. She let's my hand tug her to each station.

"LOOK AT HER FURR!" someone erupts quite loudly, "IT LOOKS LIKE HER FATHER MUST HAVE BEEN A NIGHT LIGHT!" she looks about ready to cry, and I let go of her hand and go right in front of the loud Knight. I knock his breath out with an extremely quick punch and he falls onto his back, struggling to take in another breath.

"Don't ask for trouble, I can do much worse," I whisper in his ear. I don't care if the other Knights yell at me as I walk back to Lily, or the suspicious squint Feron gives me as I pass.

I put my arm around Lily's shouldrs and hold her tight as we go take a walk.

Origins of The Fathers

I am going to lay down the story of how the Snarbolax was formed. Hope you like the story.

Alice
(many years ago before the Spiralian race was even born, on the planet Cradle)

I walk deeper and deeper into the woods. I don't know where I came from, actually I don't remember anything about my past except common instincts, my language, and my name, Alice. And then it appears. A light maroon colored furry creature with eyes of yellow. It wears a shabby top hat upon it's head and sits at a table that's decorated with strange foods. It is a he, and he sits with another he that looks like a phantom of a cat. They look quite bonkers, but I sit down with them. They don't mind and barely talk, but everything they do seems wrong in a right way. I sip a whole cup of tea from a half-broken glass. I get up and wave goodbye. Then I walk away, deeper into the forest. The forest becomes darker and more menacing. I see a grinning face from a wolfish creature in a tree. It's furr a glowing starr in the darkness. I ask him politely for directions. He floats out of the tree and in mid air and floats hither and thither. I follow him until we stop outside of a great castle. I thank him as he fades into the air. I walk into the castle, and I am surprised to find a paper on the ground. I put it in my pocket. I turn to see a blood red queen sitting on the throne. She sits there with her eyes full of fire and hatred. She screams a great warcry, "Off with your head!" I run, her guards following me to the very Heart of this realm itself. I am as angry as the queen, for I will not have my time cut short by a head. I feel a guiding light to protecf me, like the creature that brought me through the forest. And then I think of simple madness, and by it's darkness it has lead me to this horrible moment. I grab out the paper as the dark guards close in, their evil almost suffocating me. I scream out the one word that is written on the paper, asthe Core opens, and I jump in, taking the madness of the three thoughts with me, making them a reality as I fall into the looking-glass that is the Core, or is it the Core that is the looking-glass.

So the story goes, Alice created the three Fathers, The Skolver from the light the beast brought through the darkness, The Vog from the hatred of the queen, and The Snarbolax from the madness she was going through. And Alice was, and IS, part of or inside th Core, so it is true that the Core made them as well. And if you caught on, the queen's guards were the Swarm, for Vogs used to temper with chaos, and in the end when the Swarm was passed strong enough to overthrow the Vogs, they overtook the Vog child, Vanaduke, and made themselves a territory to warp and create a small dimension of chaos. Sanctuary, it seems, was Alice's last dream before she entered or became part of the Core.

Chapter 13

Snarbolax

Feron has trusted me with all beast related reports because of my unique qualifications. I keep thinking about this dreadful feeling I have towards him, like he's hiding something, which I am sure he is. I also heard a Knight called Restless has been missing for a while. Feron claims that Restless tried to attack hima nd he had to shoot him in self-defense. I don't buy it.

My hand drifts to an interesting report. A Squire claims to have recently seen a great beast of darkness at a cave not to far from here. There is another report that a small group of Knights are going to that cave today to look for cclues of the Snarbolax's whereabouts and to exterminate him. I can't let them kill my Father, for he is not a being of evil, he only kills to eat. Me and Lily will go there and help them.

We appear in the cave, using the shadows as gateways. Lily examines the walls and I examine the floors and ceiling. "I think I found something," Lily says, "Oh my god, SEATUS!" she exclaims, clearly distraught. I run over and see the same pure writhing darkness that entered our room a few nights ago. A little piece of Swarm. I can only expect the worst has happened to my Father.

We see a group of Knights heading our way. We come out of the shadows, and they pull out their swords. "Attack!" a Knight cried, swinging his Flourish at me. I tilted my head, and the darkness around me intercepted the sword in midair and it fell out of the air off to the side. The Knight cried, "Surrender now, Wolvers!" pulling out his Pulsar. I stood up, and said, "I'm not here to fight you."

They were dumbfounded that I could speak. "You can talk?" said the Knight with the Pulsar. I nodded, and explained who I was and why I was here. "My Father has been corrupted by the Swarm recently." I said. Me and Lily went with them to the Party Button, and the sight I saw was terrifying. My Father was a vicious monster, a horrifying beast, a malicious creature that had one impulse. Kill. I stared at him, wondering how this could have happened.

I pounce on him, my thorns growing to increase weight. I glanced over at the bell. "THE BELL!" I yelled at them repeatedly. This Knight I had learned of as Caleb jumped forth, and right before he hit the bell I noticed Swarm floating off my Father and into the air, only effecting me and Lily by going into our fur. "Oh god," I whispered, and the bell rang with the force of earthquakes it seemed.

The Swarm took away my power momentarily, and it took away my Father's power as well, but he had been corrupted too long and the Swarm had almost complete control over him. I was thrown to the side and hit the wall. Lily was petrified to the spot, unable to move. I got weakly up, but it was too late. Someone was dying, I could feel it bite at my bones. I don't know how I know, but I do. Molt's body goes lifelessly limp. My eyes fill up with tears. There is a curse with the Snarbolaxes, and I know it is there. Where Snarbolaxes go, death follows.

My Father disappears into the shadows with a wound to the heart, which I know for certain won't kill him. Thankfully no one notices him leave. I will have to try to find him later, and purify him of the Swarm, but for right now I walk the distressed Knights to the elevator, sending them away with a note that I helped them, and I told them to give it to Feron. Me and Lily walk away into the shadows, and try not to look at the dead body of Molt.

When we are gone, I ask Lily to try something. "Just feel the energy that dwells with your soul, the energy that exists with the Core. Try to imagine it burning like a bright candle in the darkness." and I coach her through this until finally, with a blaze, light explodes from her fur and light up the room. When it is passed I see that my fur is clean of Swarm, and I am back to my usual darkness. It seems to me that we have a new weapon against the Swarm.

Chapter 14

They Are The Real Monsters
(Lily)

I don't think Seatus notices what I do. Either that or he doesn't care. We sit in the cafeteria, alone at our table as Knights all around us whisper about us. Seatus can't eat anything but swords of dead Knights, but he is required to be here to maintain schedule. I eat some hastily stewed chromalisk though.

I hear them call us monsters, I hear them calling us beasts. I even hear traitor. There are harsh things they say. "That freak's family abandoned him, and it's obvious why. He is a worthless waste of space!"

That really hurt Seatus. A tear ran down his face. Another comment, "Why bother living if all you do in life is be unlucky? If that was me I would KILL myself."

"Is that lowlife crying? What is WRONG with him?" That really gets them going, and loud giggling erupts all around us. Seatus pretends not to notice, and just looks down at the table, but I cwn see glowing red tears drip down his face and splash on the table.

I get up, finally furious, "You all! LEAVE HIM ALONE! DO YOU REALLY THINK HE IS THE LOWLIFE?! WELL, I FIND THAT HILARIOUS CONSIDERING HOW CRUEL YOU PEOPLE ARE! WHAT DID HE EVER DO TO YOU?! WHAT HAS ANYONE DONE TO YOU, YOU IGNORANT LITTLE WRETCHES! HE HAS HAD A HARDER LIFE THAN ANY OF YOU HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF IMAGINING! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!!!" and at this, the crowd of Knights are blown out of their seats by a powerful force. Then they all pass out. Feron storms in, furious. "You!" he exclaims at us,"Come here now!"

We walk over to him, I grip Seatus's hand. Feron looks angry at us, and I see him grab his gun and point it at me.

"I let you two in to be carpets for me! Not to cause mayhem! Now you two will PAY!" he pulls the trigger, but nothing happens. I am holding back the power of the gun by willpower. He shows fear on his face, and goes for his sword, but Seatus's eyes flare for a second, and Feron is held to the wall by an unseen foe. Feron's head is uncontrollably hit against the wall, and he falls to the floor, passed out cold.

Seatus cuts the word MURDERER into Feron's arm, deep enough to be a scar for the rest of Feron's useless life.I think I saw a bit of red fur, but I can't be sure. Seatus says nothing about it. "We have to leave, before everyone wakes up," I nod my head, and before we step into the shadows, he looks at me. "Thanks for standing up for me. Your just a nice person, Lily, and that is a wonderful thing to be." and we step into the shadows, me smiling happily as I go.

@Topoyozada LOL

First of all I AM A DUDE, SO I WON'T EVER BE LILY'S GIRLFRIEND XD No they aren't QUITE in love yet...

I admit, the Father Families are a bit overpowered...as you have seen with Vanaduke. And it is not limited to one ability either, so me and Lily can kinda use the 'force' as you must call it.

And it isn't chapter 5 you have out...it's chapter 4 XD

Chapter 15

Ambushed

We walk through the woods, no longer shadow jumping. We have no idea where to go. My Father could be anywhere, and we don't really have a good idea where he could be.

I feel like iron is squeezing my heart and like something is watching me. I look around constantly and see nothing. Then I see it.

A patch of ground that is no longer ground. A pure black stains it. Then the sky around us changes to chaos. This cannot be happening.

My brothers appear, and with their appearance two bells appear from no where surrounded by thorns.

"Welcome to our lair, little brother," they say in unison, "We have waited a long time for you to come here, and now that you have, we can begin torturing you until you finally die. Then the Swarm will reanimate your body, and we will finally have a REAL brother."

Lily steps in next to me, giving a cold stare to my brothers. They step back a little, but their faces show they are still vicious. "The time has come that you are to be reborn and start again, free from the strings that tie you to the Swarm. I will orchestrate this rebirth, and in doing so will erase your past evils, and make way for future goods." Lily says, and it is the first time I notice that she has a pure white aura floating about her.

My brothers grin wickedly, and step forwards, but Lily holds out her hands and the twins are thrown on their backs. They roll over onto their bellies and stand again, but they fly backwards as I give them each a powerful punch that would kill a normal Beast in one shot. But they stand back up, and it is then I see the black patch healing them, and continously making them stronger

"Lily," I say, holding the two of them back barely with my will, "Destroy that Swarm." and I nod over to the dark spot. She runs over to it, and right before the twins overrun me, a bright light fills the area. My brothers lay passed out on the ground, their fur the same but the foam from their mouths gone. They wake up and squint at me.

"Seatus," they ask, "what are you doing here? This place isn't safe, we have to get you out of here." and it's then that a face of darkness appear in the sky, it's eyes two black holes and a gaping chasm of a mouth. "No one will leave," it says, in a voice of thousands of people dying, "No one will survive" Dark beings fall out of the chaos and land before us, their faces bearing the mark of the curse, wielding blades made of tiny bits of monsters, all glued together by darkness, creating swords of pure chaos and wrongs of nature.

Then they attack.

Chapter 16

13 Hours

I cut them down like a scythe through cornstalks. But it is hardly any use, since the continue to pour from the the sky. We haven't rested for 13 hours, and we are tired and our sword strikes get weaker and weaker. They spin, leap, and slam at us.

Their ways are so primitive. They don't have minds, they are like disturbing puppets, doing only what their master desires. Lily has made an art of killing them, she dances a masterpiece of deadly moves. The only way you could tell she was tired would be by her fur, which the light in it has a muted look to it, not even reflecting the light of the sun.

My brothers depend on one another. Sometimes one will swing around the other one while the one being swung shoots out venomous spikes. Or they will interlock paws and move about like a wheel, destroying anything unfortunate enough to be in front of them. The possibilities vary when one has another to work with.

And then I hear it's voice, the voice of Sanctuary. It fills me with a strength I wouldn't have known I had. It enhances my senses, to which I can see the thread that connects their chaos to order.

I spring for it, and the face in the sky appears again. "What are you doing?!" it's screeching voice pierces the walls of my mind, "WHAT ARE YOU DO-" it's voice is cut short when I severe the thread. The monster screeches, and it's face dissolves into the now-normal sky. The dark creatures around us dissolve. We all fall down and blackout into Sanctuary.

We wake up, and everyone is here in Sanctuary as usual, except my Father and the Vog child. Everyone is quiet but the two Fathers, who are huddled and whispering.

This is my fault.

Chapter 17

The Decision

I sit down as the Fathers start their way toward me. I know their decision by the look in their eyes. My Father isn't here to stick up for my actions, so their punishment will be blunt. I get up and walk towards them as Lily walks along with me, casting harsh glances at her giggling sisters. The Skolver Father starts, looking at the ground and shuffling his feet.

"It is the best option for you has been decided. We think it best if you take a Journey, and figure out more about the Swarm. They are an ancient civilization that has plagued this world of ours for too long, and we must finally destroy it in hopes of having ourselves in peace. This will be a long journey, and it will be tough, but you and Lily will prevail. We are certain of it."

"And," Vog starts, a tears brimming his eyes, "I would be extremely grateful if you could reclaim my Son, I miss him so. He has tampered with the Swarm, and in hopes of making himself stronger, he has made himself weaker and cruel. The Swarm has completely taken over his body, and use it as a horrible puppet. He has destroyed thousands of innocent creatures. I just want him back."

I nod, and I swear to bring back Vog's Son. I don't know how me and Lily will do it, because we know the evil near the Core could possibly destroy us like it has Vog's Son, but deep in my heart, I can see that we could bring him back if we try hard enough.

And like that, we dissolve from Sanctuary.
