Diclino's arm once released began to heal almost instantly. "Well that was rude...." Diclino snarled as he began to chase after the creature. He caught up with the creature and noticed Nekoryu was coming after them. He easily lept out of Nekoryu's charge and then landed on top of the monster. He then aimed his black at the creature's weak spot. He missed. Nekoryu then caught on and rushed ahead of them and then stopped right ahead. He then charged up his magical flames and charged the energy in his mouth. As the energy charged, Diclino stabbed the other eye of the beast. He was quickly thrown of at this moment. Nekoryu then blasted the creature with the flames in his mouth and then charged with his horns aimed at the weakness of the strange monster.

The monster snorted, knocking Diclino and Nekoryu off to the side. It galloped off to the forest, ten times bigger than the trees. Hanphreite stared in it's direction. "I just can't stand to see things injured that way..." She circled around, keeping a watchful eye in the direction of any attack. "Well, it was only defeding itself. It didn't know any better, you scared it." She snorted, looking at the two.

Diclino sighed and then check on Nekoryu. Nekoryu then glared angrily at the Beast's direction. "Well it shouldn't have attacked. It should've known Diclino jerking me away from it was a means to protect it from me!" He roared at Hanphreite. He then glared at the footprints and kicked dirt over them. Diclino suddenly bobbed Nekoryu on the back of his head. "How's anything supposed to know that when it's wild?!" He hissed at the Beastial. Then he looked at Hanphreite. "How about you? Are you hurt in any way?" He asked her. Nekoryu snarled and then walked towards the nearby river and dived in to fish.

Hanphreite checked over herself. "Not that I can see... Though I have a short range of eyesight." She shook her head and looked off in the distance, as if a loud horn was blown. She stepped forward, tilting her head down to hear better. "My mind must be going... There are no wolves around here." Off in the distance, there was a howling sound.

Nekoryu burst out of the water with a huge freshwater shark tail followed by the rest of shark in his mouth. He quickly rushed to get it on the shore and then dropped it, next to Diclino. Diclino hissed in reaction to the howl. He knew it was the wolfish again. Nekoryu knew this as well. He roared loudly into a vast echo. He was trying to scare them away for he didn't feel like fighting. He had used too much power into the attacks on the giant beast. Now he was left secretly helpless. Diclino knew this however. "Nekoryu.... go hide. You're far too weak to fight now... I'll try to hold them off... That's if they wish to fight." He then turned to Hanphreite. "Hanphreite? Can you help fight if it is the Wolfish wanting revenge?" Diclino asked her. He then dropped down his sword and allowed the cloak to throw it into a nearby tree. "May I tell you a secret Han? Remember when I told you I'm not forced by Nekoryu to shift into Sheaidock? I was telling the truth. It is caused by my Death years ago... Nekoryu wasn't the one whom killed me. But was someone else... But since then I been cursed by the mark of the Graven. A species of Vampire cursed with half lives... One life of a Vampire and then once killed a new life as a Hyfearion Shadow. But once Volkenagrim Resurrected me and appointed me as an Agent of Darkgrim, well I was somewhat freed but ofcourse I had to become cursed with another problem. This very Cloak I wear. Yet it was the only way. So.... I must have Horizon on my person at all times or Sheaidock is freed from my Soul..." He told her. He then began to slowly unwrap his arm with mark of the Curse of Graven. The left arm. The black scales shined brightly in the moonlight. And the shadows from the scales wisped along in the slight breeze. "At least I have some control with the Deal I've struck with the Karasduskian Shroud. In exchange for some of my Lifeforce it allows me temporary control, but still allows him to control me as well. So a half blessing from a Full Blown Curse." He added.

Hanphreite smirked on the side of her face that wasn't seen. "Of course I can help- If you want a Wolfish dead, you'll get a Wolfish dead." She nodded after listening, then reared. The Wolfish were coming in numbers uncountable, in all directions. Something that seemed as if they couldn't handle the mass. Hanphreite knocked a few of the weak to the side with her head then turned to Diclino. "If I'm not severely injured, I will tell you my secret." She stuck her horn through two of them, tossing them off into the distance. She raged around through them, knocking them over and killing them like a wild creature. The Wolfish were still coming. Finally the wave ended, Hanphreite made sure that all of them were atleast dead or injured. Off in the distance, a large shadow appeared. Ten times the size of the bear they had seen earlier. It's head was far above the clouds. It was a giant Wolfish, loping towards them as fast as it could. Hanphreite looked towards Diclino. "This ones going to be harder... It has no weak spot and its gotten alot stronger than when I last saw it... When it was about eighteen centuries old." Hanphreite glared up, looking for its invisible face.

Diclino smiled cruelly. "It does have a weakness.... Hyfearion Shadows are the weakness...." He told her in a dark voice. He walked towards the Beast and snarled at it. "Do you wish to die, Giant Wolfish?" He told it. "I know you can't harm me as Sheaidock.... The shadows protect us from all magics we've faced... Making us as close to Immortal as possible... Our ONLY Weaknesses are the powers of Volkenagrim and his Vessels and OTHER Hyfearion Shadows....." He then allowed his Shroud to turn him into his Darkness. Sheaidock then let out a snarl of pure Darkness. He then let loose his claws and slashed his way up the Giant Wolfish as he climbed it. He then found it eyes and gouged them out. He then spread the hidden wings of his kind and they looked as if they were made entirely of Shadows. He then flew above the Beast them dived down turning his shadows into a giant blade encasing his entire body. The Shadow blade dug deeply into the Beast's head. But was withdrawn before a fatal blow was struck, for he wanted more fun at killing it. Killing it slowly. Nekoryu was swimming underwater at this time. He was searching for the source of his powers underwater. He knew now what needed to be done. He needed to be killed by the Giant Wolfish and the powers forced into one of the most Legendary Forgotten Artifacts ever. The Orb of Darkest Souls. "Hanphreite! I've found another way my Souls can be tamed without a believer of Soul Taming! But you must tell Sheaidock to stop trying to kill the Wolfish... Tell him to allow it to live but only long enough to Kill me! Then have him finish it off.... I'll bring something to you.. Something that was stolen from me years ago. Yet once I'm dead my powers will leave my body so be ready to force them into what I'm bringing up to the surface! You'll have a tough job ahead of you... And that is to hold the Orb of Darkest Souls to my powers and force them inside of it... Then I'll be in the Darkgrim Voids to search for my new existence... But afterwards you must find the closest person with a pure Heart and Pure Soul. I'll tell you the rest in the Darkgrim Voids!" He told her through his mind. He then grabbed the Orb with his mouth and rushed rapidly to the surface. Nekoryu was now close to the land above now. And hoped he wasn't too late.

Hanphreite nodded and did everything exactly as she was told. After everything was almost done, she began galloping around trying to find a pure hearted soul. She was halfway around the world searching, and the sun was coming down. This worried her, because the worst things happened during the night. "I'm afraid I can't find anyone. As I said, no one believes in this anymore. The world is being filled with darkness... It will be impossible at this rate. But I will keep searching." She gained her speed faster, looking in every nook and cranny. She had rounded the world twice, north, south, east, and west. But she found nothing. On the opposite place as where Shaeidock and Volkenagrim were, she was so busy searching she didn't notice her form flickering. She immediately tripped and fell over a rock she was meaning to jump over. She stood up, looking different. Her eyesight range was a bit wider, and she was standing on two legs. She cursed at herself in some language she didn't recognize. "I will still keep looking." It took a while to get used to, but at some point she was back up and running in her human body. Usually this happens on twilight nights... Odd... I guess I don't need to keep it a secret anymore. She slowed down as she thought this, but sped up immediately. She stood still and noticed it was morning again. She sighed and returned back.

Sheaidock snarled with an angry hiss at what he was told. But stopped attacking the Wolfish. He then saw Nekoryu begin to taunt the Wolfish. "I bet you CAN'T kill me dumb creature!" he snarled at the Wolfish. He then stabbed his horns into it's feet. He then charged and bit the tail of the giant beast. He then saw Hanphreite coming back. "I see you were unsuccessful. This Darkness is all my fault... My Powers have raged for far too long... But! There is one last hope... She is the only choice now.... Seariyana... My once Beloved..." He thought to her. Then he awaited impatiently for the Wolfish to get the point and kill him. Sheaidock snarled and was very impatient. He wanted to rip the monster apart bit by bit.

The Wolfish roared and swatted at Nekoryu. It had to bend down very far in order to see it through the clouds. It pinched Nekoryu and brought it up to it's face. "Well well, what do we have here? A puny little beast." It grinned, showing throusands of sharp teeth. "I see, you want me to kill you so you can go on with your stupid plan." The thing roared with laughter. "Good luck." He tossed it to the edge of a cliff, without hurting a single hair. Hanphreite sprinted and pulled Nekoryu onto the ground safely. "So much for that, I guess." She stood up, looking around. She looked much like a unicorn, long and pale. She looked back at Nekoryu. "You look pale. You need rest." She became a unicorn and slumped him on her back, carrying him to where the Wolfish giant was. Or atleast, where it's footprints were. It had walked back into the forest.

Nekoryu snarled weakly. "DON'T help me!" He roared. He got off her back and collapsed. Then he coughed up blood. He was breathing heavily. A large piece of a sharp stone was impaled near his heart. He then grabbed the Orb near him and handed it to her. " Get ready... Don't worry. There is still some people out there with a good heart and soul... I know. They don't believe but it isn't the belief I'm searching for. Just one person with a gentleness to them. A willingness to help others... Fighting for what's right. Take the Orb into your hand. And force my powers into it...." He thought to her. He then coughed up more blood and then lowered his head. Finally he breathed his last. Suddenly Dark Energies emerged from his body, dissolving it completely. The Energies swirled around the area and began to spread out slowly. Where they touched, the life around there died. And turned into ash. Sheaidock snarled then went after the Wolfish. He wanted to kill it now. Now that he could. But lost it's trail. He hissed and roared with such rage and began to slash down the numerous trees of the forest. Then he made his way back. "DARN IT! My prey got away...." He hissed. He then saw the Orb in Hanphreite's hand. "How'd you come that?!" He hissed at her. He looked eager to steal the powers. Then he snarled. Diclino was taking back control. He then was forced to grab Horizon and then shifted back into his natural state. Then Diclino fell to the ground and passed out.

Hanphreite became human and took the orb and before she knew it, she was standing between two unconcious bodies. She did exactly as Nekoryu told her, and forced his powers into it. She stepped back, looking at the life dying around Nekoryu. She stepped back again, taking a look at everything. She was a small wisp of fire as she had been for centuries now. All the weird things just have to be left to me. Thanks alot... She would have shook her head, but she didn't have one. She turned a bright shade of purple, a mix of her anger and sadness. She looked around, then floated backward a few yards. Had a chance to live normally until that dragon came along. But no, I get banished into cold solitude. Only once a month do I get to live and breathe, as if that does anything though...

Yet suddenly the orb began to glow. A gentle wafting voice resignated from it. " Don't fear.... You can live again and only if you should wish. And from now on.... You hold the power of your own fate in your hands. But wish it, to gain it.... This Orb my powers are inside are what all Monsters seek... Watch why!" It said to her. Suddenly it glowed brightly and brighter with each second. Then the orbs light touched the areas life had died. The life began to return. It also became even more vibrant and stronger than ever. Once it was finished, the Orb of Darkest Souls dimmed. Then the voice returned. "It's me, by the way, Volkenagrim. Yet as his Past, Volcanotano.... My powers are based on the many wishes of the entire World. The land didn't wish to die. Yet it wished to live, and become new. So it returned. Life returned.... Now you have some of that power as well. That is if you become my Soul Tamer. Or find another to be it. But don't search for the obvious signs.... But something tells me you are the one. Take my powers to the place of my Birth.... Inside a Volcano known as Mount Dragon.... Once you do that throw the orb into the Lava, then wait for me to surface from the hot rocks, in my new body." He told her. Then the orb became quiet and dim. Diclino yawned and slowly woke up from his passing out earlier. He then slowly stood up and sighed. "You're not alone my friend. I'm still here, and I'll not abandon you. Please heed my friends words... The Past has spoken to give way to the new Present and Future. Slowly it will lead to the return of Light!" Diclino said to Hanphreite. He then walked to her and then took the Orb from her hand. "Do you wish to live? If so, as an Agent of Darkgrim, my friend has given me one gift to pass to another. So wish to live and so shall you live!" He then waited for her reply.

Hanphreite sparked. "I do not wish to live, and I do not need to live. Nothing can change the way I am, the only thing I wish is just to stay the way I am... No one needs to know who I am or what I am aside from this. No one ever will." She was turning a violent shade of red, as if she were to explode. "And I have found someone for you. Actually, two... A little boy named Patience and his sister Kade. I might know where they are." She disappered, then reappeared with a frightened Kade and her angry brother Patience. Patience was glaring up at Hanphreite. "Really? You bring me back here?! I thought we had a deal about this! No taking me on spirit trips!" Kade elbowed him in the gut, turning his head towards Diclino. "Don't you recognise this person? Their on every wanted poster!" She was rushing her whispers, trying to be quiet enough to be just in Patience's earshot. Patience stared at Diclino. "Your taller than I remember." Kade nudged him again.

Diclino bowed down to both of them. Kade and Patience. He then nodded to Hanphreite. "I'm so sorry you feel that way. And I was just wanting to help.... Don't be angry at me." He told her. Then he turned attention to Patience. "Last time I saw you, you were a spider, yet now you've become different. And why on Earth are we on Wanted Posters, Volkenagrim and I?" He asked him. Then he looked at Kade. "I don't really remember you to well... Sorry if I'm being rude." He told him. Diclino sighed at all the things going on. "I hope you know Hanphreite I was just hoping to be your friend. Along with Volkenagrim. He really cares about you deep down. Yet the rules had to change. Or else no hope would be left for the light of the world." He explained to her. Volkenagrim was in the Darkgrim Voids. His Soul was reading through his new Identity. It was still to be named Volkenagrim. But the body was to look different. He was to look like the forms of Nekoryu and his old form combined. Once he found this, the Orb glowed in Hanphreite's hands. "Thank you my friend. Please do allow m e to help you... It's all the chance at Redemption I've got. To correct my wrongs." His voice told her. The Orb then glowed then expelled flames out onto the ground. These flames then shaped into his form and he collapsed and fell into a deep sleep. The Soul then entered the body.

Kade glared at Diclino. She wouldn't warm up to strangers. Patience stared at her, sort of making fun of her. Kade flicked Patience's forehead. "Your on wanted posters for murdering. A reward of one million pounds... Or more if both are turned in." Kade was still glaring at Diclino, sort of a dirty look by then. Hanphreite turned grey, an undefined feeling. "You've done nothing wrong. But I have." Hanphreite melted into the ground, and was no longer seen.

Diclino's face turned even more pale than normal. He had seen Hanphreite melt away, and this hurt him deeply. "Han... Why'd you disappear like our first friend...?" He asked her, hoping to get an answer. Yet felt he wouldn't. Then he looked to Kade and Patience again. "Trust me... Turning us is would be a BAD idea. Especially since we protect the balance, Volkenagrim and I. Yet since the Curses of Volkenagrim have worsened, well; to say the least we're now failing our jobs at the moment...." He sighed in a rather depressed sort of way. He then noticed the similarity between Kade's nature and his friend's nature. The harshness towards strangers at first meeting. Well most of the time. Volkenagrim was still slumbering this entire time. Yet his Souls were aware of Hanphreite's melting away. This shut his heart even further. Now he'd be more difficult around strangers. He was now sick and tired of those that found a way to enable him some trust to them, yet now. No longer. He then began to stir.

Kade was still glaring at Diclino, looking a bit mean. "If we don't turn you in, who will?" She smiled faintly, but then downcast her eyes. "Joking..." Her voice trailed off, still barely below a whisper. Patience glared at her. Kade flinched and jumped behind Patience when Volkenagrim moved, though she was much taller.

Diclino smirked at Kade and smiled a bit sweetly. "Don't worry.... I understand...." He told her. He then noticed her jump behind Patience when Volkenagrim stirred. The old Donampyer shook his head. "Don't worry, young lass, Kade. Volkenagrim won't hurt you. But if he would, I won't let him." Diclino added. His silvery grey eyes gleamed a bit and suddenly shine as hue of red. He then grabbed the throat of his a bit. "Ugh.. Although I better go hunt for some blood... Animals might do for a bit... Yet understand Kade, I'd never hurt an Innocent." Then he was about to walk away but soon stopped. "But one thing... Whom we're we supposed to have killed?" He asked her. He stood still, anxious for an answer. Volkenagrim finally managed to slowly sit up. He opened his eyes and saw Patience. "Patience? It's you..." Was all he had to say to his old friend, whom was now a boy. He thought about smiling yet found he couldn't. He'd lost the ability since now his newest friend had vanished. His eyes soon turned to look at Kade. He sharply narrowed them at her as he quickly stood up. "Whom are you?" He snarled.

Kade glared at Diclino. "How am I supposed to know? You two are the murderers." Patience looked at Volkenagrim, deciding his reaction. Kade scanned him with her eyes, a blank frown on her face. "Why would you want to know?" She glared at his face, a bit of anger. Patience snorted. "Her name is Kade, shes my sister." When he looked at Kade, the only thing he saw was another dirty look infront of him. "Geez, I thought the older ones were supposed to be the nice ones..." Kade nudged him in the gut with her elbow.
