Angelalex242 Vampire with a soul
|
Requiem Eterna...
Lucia, after
seeing this noble sacrifice, was moved to tears. She would see
to it that his final sacrifice was not in vain. Being a
goddess, she had some pull in the afterlife, and would make
sure Vante did not claim the soul of this noble warrior. But
first things first.
First, she sent forth her power to
purify the body, and make very sure Viante wouldn't find his
way into it again. The now sanctified body actually looked
more sacred than it had in life, as if Izlude had been a Holy
Knight rather than a Dragoon.
She was a bit confused
on how exactly to bury him, however. Throwing him off the edge
of the island just didn't seem proper. Yet burying him on the
Veldt itself, which would soon dissapear, didn't seem right
either. She asked Ronfar, who'd been closer to him then she
had been, what he though should be done.
Ronfar
thought about it. "We're adrift in a void. So it's kinda like
dying on a ship, I guess. It's more appropriate to toss his
body to the void."
Then, Lucia had something else to
do, so she entered the spirit realm, where Vante was still
gloating over the soul he'd just acquired. Of course, in the
spirit realm, she didn't have to worry about unleashing her
full power.
"Vante! You will release the soul of
that man, now!"
Vante turned, and laughed at the
goddess.
"Mwahahaha! I can't believe you were fool
enough to follow me into my own realm. Ha! This is too good to
be true. Death of all Creation...STRIKE!"
Of
course, as Vante turned to battle Lucia, Izlude's soul escaped
his notice. Meanwhile, Lucia dodged Vante's strike, and turned
to the released soul. She sent forth her power, and boosted it
up towards the light. It was beyond Vante's reach. Now, Lucia
had to get out of here.
"Althena's light, shine
forth!"
Vante laughed as the energy field closed
around him. Then, he abruptly realized he'd made a huge
mistake. The power of creation...the reason it had seemed so
weak before is that Lucia always had to hold back while using
it. So had Althena before her, except for the time when she
banished Zophar on the Blue Star.
Lucia's energy
snapped around Vante, and sent him hurtling straight to the
hell he came from. Lucia then went to escape.
"Not
so fast, little goddess. You are indeed stronger here, but did
you think you could get away from me in my own realm? Death of
Eternity! Slash!"
A particularly evil looking
sword slashed Lucia, and she had a big gash across her
stomach. But she maintained enough focus to leave the spirit
realm.
Vante was pissed.
"I shall surely
take revenge on you for this crime, Princess of the Blue Star!
Nobody does this to me and gets away with it!"
And
Vante waited, to plot his revenge. He had an idea. Zophar also
had a score to settle Lucia. There was no way she'd be able to
take both of them at the same time...

If it takes an
eternity...he will make ammends. Angel
Justice is not the only right in this world. Someday,
you will see.
Virtue: "You don't need a reason to help
people."
