D:A:R:K:N:E:S:S Awaits (crim)

[deepwallow]

The Lord watches with faint amusement still as the dragon is defeated, chuckling. "We'll done, you're certainly no slacker." He commented, getting up

[CrimsonMoon]

" I still have to fight you, remember? Unless you have more beasties?"

[deepwallow]

"Nope, just me. Come then." He said with a smile as the darkness in the room swelled and covered him like armor as he stroke forth

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight takes a step back, frowning, the hundreds of swords circlig slowly around him

[deepwallow]

A deep chuckle comes from the lower as shadows blast out and destroy his swords of light and he leaps forward, hitting the knight right in the stomach and sendin him flying into a pillar

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight's head snaps back and he sinks to the ground, soitting some blood but glaring at the shadow lord, struggling to his feet. His hazel eyes flashing with aggression that seemed very uncharacteristic of him. He holds the sword in front of him, murmuring," Almighty Thunder... God help you," suddenly launching his sword toward the darklord. Immediately it became a bolt of lightning and exploded as it connected with its target

[deepwallow]

The Lord screamed and burst into shadow, leaving..... Iggre standing there. What the?!

A deep chuckling came from the knight's left. "Very good." It said smoothly before suddenly tendrils of shadow wrapped around the knight's limbs, wrapping him up tightly as one tendril grabs his sword and literally swallows it. The light that had burned oh so brightly from the sword began to fade and fade until there was nothing and a dull, grey sword was spit back out. The Iggre that had remained in the shadows stepped forward, grinning as suddenly he was transformed into the real shadow lord, black hair and all, clapping

"Most impressive, but utterly futile, little knight." He said with amusement as the knight was brought before him by the tendrils that were wrapping around him more

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight stares at him, closing his eyes and murmurs," You absorbed a holy weapon... It's like a cancer for you... Dark things... It'll kill you slowly..." He grins, some blood spilling from his mouth but he grins any way," Even if I die now.. I win.. In time.." Some of his armor on his back had been shatered in the collision, showing signs of a large tattoo... {*nudge nudge wink wink*}

[deepwallow]

AH HAAAAA!))

The shadow lord laughed. "Absorbed the weapon? My dear, naive young knight. I didn't absorb the weapon, only it's power. You have much to learn." He said with a chuckle. "And who said anything about you dying, hmmmm?" He asked with a sly smile. "I think I'll keep you... You're amusing to me" he muses as the tendrils start to cover his face and he passes out.

-time warp-

Later the knight wakes up in some kinda cell, shackled at the feet with some kind of runes stone shackle that looks strange for a rock....

[CrimsonMoon]

He wakes up slowly, stretching... God his a** hurt. He yawns and blinks, glancing around,"... Not the worst place i've woken up," he mumbles, leaning down to examine the shackles

[deepwallow]

The shackles seemed pretty solid and thick, and those runes didn't bode well. But footsteps began approaching from the cell bars down the hallway

[CrimsonMoon]

He sniffs and seems to wither, he wasnt that great at magic.. it'd take awhile for his power to regenerate... He pushes his tawny black hair from his eyes and chews on his lip," ..."

[deepwallow]

Soon a guard could be seen passing his cell and looking in. The girl was hideous, and was t even a guy. It was more of some kinda lizard humanoid the peered into the cell, reptilian eyes narrowed and forked to the snaking out for a second

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight raises an eye brow," Oooh... Ah.... Oh.... Sorry, you're really... Disturbing..." He breathes in between his teeth

(XD)

[deepwallow]

The guard narrows its eyes more before rolling them. "Humans." It hisses before moving on, clearly unimpressed with the knight

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight laughs, crossing his arms and musing beneath his breath," Not exactly.."

[deepwallow]

Times t on before the guard returned and slipped food in under the bars. "Eat." He commanded simply, motioning to the loaf of bread and water bowl there before moving on again.

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight blinks at the food, suprised the bread wasn crawling with maggots and algae floating in the water... He breaks apart the bread and eats half, leaning back," Not so bad.."

[deepwallow]

Eventually, footsteps can be heard again, but they are much too light to be the guard's. suddenly, Iggre is standing there and waves. "Hello knight! How is knight doing?" Iggre asked

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight waves with him," Hey, little doorman... Whats up?" For being a POW... He was amazingly light hearted
