[Drahcir]

Drahcir was on the defensive, blocking furiously as Korton attempted to strike him repeatedly. Up, down, left, right, forward, the attacks never ceased. He was singed or cut by the blade multiple times, barely managing to hold off the assault. At one point, Korton slashed at him from behind, the left, the right, and the front in the span of less than half a second. Drahcir did not fully block that--it hit him, though lightly.
Finally, Drahcir managed to block with one hand only, using the other hand to slap a ball of pressure against Korton's side. As it exploded, Drahcir's arm nearly broke, but it knocked Korton off balance. After the ring finger was severed, one, two strokes finished him.

After cutting away the lock on the jail cell door, Drahcir snuck out of the cell. Nearby, he found a variety of curved swords--Sonidow's weapons. Apparently the guards had been slightly more competent with him. Drahcir took the swords with him as he explored the cell bay further.
In a nearby cell he found Sonidow. After cutting loose the cell door and handing Sonidow his swords, Drahcir said, "Come on. Let's see if we can find a way out of here."

[The Lost Global Mod]

Philus bared his teeth. "No way!" he said looking at Manji. "I don't know about you guys, but for me it is meaningless how dangerous the shortcut may be... I will take that one!" Philus continued while looking now at Cen and Mailliw. They looked at each other and then nodded.
"But we can't afford to get there with injuries!" Manji claimed. The other three looked at him with a strange expression. "Nobody said we are going to get injured" Cen then said. "If we work together, nothing can stop us" Philus continued. "nothing, except Julian" Mailliw replied.

At first everyone was speechless about Mailliw saying what everyone was thinking but then Philus took again the word. "Thats even one more reason to give our best. Everything will work out somehow." Cen looked at Philus and started to talk "But..." He stopped as he looked into Philus's eyes. In these eyes there was a will, a will to make the impossible possible no matter what happens. Cen smirked and cried out "Let's go!" and the group headed on.

It felt like Drahcir and Sonidow were running around for hours. They just couldn’t seem to find a way out of this dungeon-like prison. As they were going through every possible route, Drahcir began to notice something strange in Sonidow’s actions. He was looking down a lot more. He started to ask him about it but then realized that it might not be a good idea.
They came to a stop and found an open area with two different routes. Drahcir asked Sonidow, “Hmm, which one should we take?”
Sonidow didn’t respond as he was still looking down.
“Sonidow?”
There was still no response. Drahcir was aggravated at his silence and proceeded with grabbing him by his collar. He smacked him across his face once.
“HEY, WAKE UP! This is no time to be day-dreaming!”
Sonidow was infuriated so he grabbed both of Drahcir’s hands and flung him into the prison wall. Drahcir smashed into it, back first, and fell to the ground.
“Who the Hell do you think you are?!” Sonidow shouted. “Don’t you ever touch me again, got it?!”
“I had to wake you up somehow,” Drahcir responded getting up slowly. “I don’t know what happened, but you need to snap out of it. Looking down isn’t going to get us out of here!”
Sonidow was silent for the moment but his anger radiated off his body. He began calming down, slowly but surely. Drahcir rose up and, looking at the two routes again, he asked. “So what are we going to do about this?”
“What do you think?” Sonidow asked in an obvious manner. “You take the right, I’ll take the left and, hopefully, we will see each other on the other side.”
Drahcir lowered his eyes, “I could’ve thought of that.”
Sonidow walked ahead but Drahcir stopped him, “Hey wait!”
“What is it?” Sonidow turned with some rising frustration in his voice.
“What exactly did…?”
“We’ll talk about it on the other side, Drahcir. Now move your a** or get left behind.” Sonidow said.
Drahcir’s face began swelling up with anger. But he let it go as his partner disappeared into the darkness of the left route. He became silent, gulped, and proceeded with the second route.

Dark clouds began overlaying the sun and small traces of lightning permeated throughout the skies. The redheaded man stood outside on top of a strange building looking at the luminous ring that graced his right finger. He began to test his power on the first thing he saw. He looked below at the forest several miles away. Producing a small ball of energy, he shot it at the forest and immediately, the ENTIRE forest went up in flames. The man was so shocked and surprised that it scared him. But it quickly turned into a strange sense of happiness. He was no longer the weak human that he used to be.
The sensation of power overwhelmed him to the point where he rose into the sky and began to take off destroying anything that caught his interest. In the process, he was laughing hysterically and his eyes turned into a dark purple.
~

In a dark abyss, far away from everything, a being was sitting in meditation, waiting patiently. A dome of red and purple energy surrounded him preventing him from moving until the time would arise. Lighting streaked across the sky above, and this forced this being’s eyes to open slightly. They were also purple, but getting closer, they began changing red. He smirked and chuckled slightly. Lightning continued to overwhelm the skies and rain began to pour. Out of nowhere, a legion of demons began flying east…

"Well so you want to save your friends, first of all you should get plenty of water because you don't wont to drink water in there, second I will warn you that you might well much weaker in there than in here, and third is that don't use any of your powers just use your weapon or hands because if you use one of you powers you will be stuck in there for your entire life, okay." Manji told them. Every body got bottles of water and Manji took a scroll from his sleeves. He opened it and started to draw things on the ground with his sword. The first thing he drew was three circles, each one of them was smaller than the other one then he drew strange symbols on the ground that looked like the one's that Japanese people write, in the end he drew an half angel, half demon looking creature, "okay it's ready, just need... oh yeah need a tea leaf." so he reached again into his sleeve and got a tea leaf."I think he has everything in that sleeve" whispered Philus into Cen ear. Then the drawing was glowing dark red and looked like a portal more. Manji was the first person to step in, then he vanished into the portal. "Well lets go guys" Cen said and ran into the portal and followed by Philus, Noir, and Malliw.
The land looked the same as the one they came from but every body except Manji felt weaker. They started to walk, after one minuet Manji said, "stop, something is coming and it's big and , on fire." "Well I don't see anything or hear anything" Noir said. Then I huge lizard that was burning in flames screamed. Manji t drew his sword and told every one to stay behind him, they obeyed and Manji ran towards the creature and slashed his sword on the creature's head and then it fell. "What was that?" Noir asked. "I have no clue" said Manji. The five people walked without getting near a monster for the whole day. "Manji, do people live here?" asked Cen. "No, all of them died long time ago before any of you ever born." said Manji.
After ours of walking, they reached the snow land. " We should rest for now. " " We can't, Sonidow and Drachi are in trouble. " Philus barked at Manji.
" It's only bean 5 hours in this world but 5 second in other world so we have plenty of time okay, you should remember everry thing you were taught and said to because in some moments they can save you and other people. " Manji said. They made a camp to rest for a while and Manji was guarding them. " I hope no one will enter from that portal." said Manji in a worrying tone.

This sound a little weird, doesn't it people.

[Reaper]

On the next day they immediately began walking again. Silently, as everyone was lost in his own thoughts. Trees and hills were passing by, but nobody was really paying attention. The empty land somehow frightened them.
As time went by, they realized how the trees slowly became less and less and how the ground changed its colour from white to something between brown and grey. Additionally, they got higher and higher.
“Soon we should reach the devastated area around the castle Firend.”, Manji said. No one replied anything, but especially Philus' expression got determined and frozen. Without looking back he increased his walking speed.
As they reached the top of the mountain they were walking on, they finally saw the entire dark land. In front of them, black hills and vales stretched for miles and miles. And near the horizon, far, far away a lonely castle was standing on a cliff, watching over the land.
“Come on, we will soon be there.”
Inspired by the seemingly so near goal, they began to walk even faster. Manji still tried to slow them down to prevent them from getting tired, but it was hopeless. But as they came nearer, a weird feeling caught hold of them. Something was wrong, but they couldn't tell what exactly it was.
Another hour had passed as they suddenly noticed a low voice apparently coming from everywhere. The noise became louder and louder and now they could identify it as an evil laughter. The laughter of...
Suddenly Julian appeared in the air above them, still laughing.
“It was so easy to take possession of this world. Now I can rule over it. Unfortunately I don't have enough time to take care of your death. I will leave it to this world. Happy dying.”
With this words he disappeared, leaving nothing but violet smoke behind.
“What could he have meant with his last words?”
Before anyone could reply, the ground around them began to move. Everywhere around them, earth hulked itself up to creatures made out of rock and death wood, while the last remaining trees used their branches to strike at the fighters.
“Manji!” shouted Cen, “We have to get out of here!”
“Try to stop them. I have to make a new portal.” He screamed back.
As Cen turned to the first giant, he saw Philus already breaking his neck.
“Keep in mind that you can't use any magic!” Manji shouted.
Now Cen also intervened in the fight. Together with Mailliw he knocked out one of the giants. As he fell down, both already headed to one of the demonic trees.
“Oh no! I don't have any tea leaves.” Manji suddenly cursed.
“What?” Philus screamed across his shoulder. “Do you really need that?”
“Yes. Or some kind of mighty magic on the other side to open the portal.”
“So, unless we find a leaf in this land, which I doubt, we have to get to the castle, directly to Julian. Well, thats where we wanted to get anyway, didn't we? Hurry up.” Cen screamed and punched away one of the giants to get a hole into the wall of attackers. Immediately he jumped through it, the others directly behind him. Now they all headed to the castle while more and more giants came out off the ground around them.

[Elias]

It took about five hours do defeat all of the enemies. Every one was tired except Manji that looked like he didn't even break a sweat.
All of them took another rest to continue walking. When they started walking Philus asked "how did Julian cam into this world?"
"Simple, he didn't it was just an image of him but the not real deal, and if it was truly him he would just kill you with his soul bombs."
When they reached near the castle Manji didn't go to the castle but into a hole in the ground.
"Manji!" Philus screamed into the hole.
"Just jump in." Manji replied.
All of them jumped into the whole and saw Manji putting his hands on some strange looking wall.
"This is the portal out into the other world, the one where we came from."
Then a bright light came from the stone and all of the heroes vanished.
All of them where in no ware were they where heading too.
"Manji, you son of a b****!" Philus screamed at Manji.
"We went into the guarding land, so if we defeat him we will go freely but if we loose we will die."
Then a huge dragon came from the skies. It was all gold and it's wings looked unnaturally, they where like an angels but gold.
Manji drew his sword and said "now we can do anything in here." and he jumped towards the dragon so as everybody.
The started to slash it head but no effect and then it gain energy into his moth nand shot a huge energy ball, everybody dodged it but still it hurt them a little.
Manji the jumped into air and pointed his sword into the skies and a huge line of energy was connecting them and then Manji sword had a different shape that looked much stronger than his sword and he slashed it across the dragons whole body and suffers a horrible seizure, dies shaking while in fetal position on the ground.
Later they appeared near castle Firend.

Yes I did horrible in here and Manji still stays the good guy.

[Zabobula]

Evening had dawned upon Philus, Cen, Mailliw, Noir, and Manji and the rest who had stopped in front of the castle of Firend. They had no idea of what possibly lied behind the large wooden and bolted doors that stood in front of them.
“So what do we do now?” Cen asked.
“We go in of course,” Noir said walking towards the door.
“No Noir WAIT!” Manji tried to cease his movement but it was too late.
Noir disappeared right before their eyes. They had no idea how it happened but it happened. Manji did, however, have an idea on how it happened.
“What the Hell?!” Philus shouted.
“You guys…I’m sorry to say this but you have to retreat,” Manji said looking back at the warriors.
“What?” Philus responded. “We can’t turn around now, we’ve already come this far!”
“You have to,” Manji argued. “Noir’s fighting prowess is crucial to what comes next. But without him, even with me, you have no chance.”
“Have you forgotten that we are warriors as well?” Cen asked.
“Even so,” Manji continued, “We need Noir.”
Before the group could get in another word, Manji made a circular shape in the air with the blade of his sword, spawning a large portal. It shot towards the group and engulfed them all.
Manji then created a separate portal and went inside to find Noir.

Z, the redheaded man, former host of the Crimson One had received new powers that were all his own. He could not control the powers of the Crimson One but with the ring of a fallen Warlord, he felt mightier than ever. But his ecstasy for power was cut short has he received a cold pat on the shoulder.
“Don’t let it all go to your head; you are still under my control.”
He turned his head and Julian was standing right next to him. He didn’t pay him much attention as he continued to stare at the ring he was so heavily fascinated with.
“Are you even listening to me?” Julian asked.
“Yeah…yeah.” Z replied. “What do you want?”
Julian took his hand off his shoulder and answered. “I have a task for you. This will give you a chance to test out your power, and prove yourself to me.”
Z smiled at the idea of testing his power, but he frowned at the latter. “What do you want me to do?”
Julian turned around putting his hands behind his back. “Prince Noir of Quartz has fallen into one our trap portals near castle Firend. Find him and bring him to me…alive that is.”
“You think he’s gunna put up a good resistance?” Z smirked.
“That’s not important. What matters is that you bring him back to me alive, understand?” Julian replied slowly glancing over his shoulder at Z.
Z frowned again with his eyes flaring up. He snorted and turned his back. “Fine…whatever. I’ll be back before the sun sets completely.”
“Confident aren’t we? Noir is no pushover. You know this yourself from your previous encounter.” Julian responded.
“That was then.” Z said preparing to take off.
Julian grabbed him by his shoulder as he was lifting off the ground. “Oh and by the way, if you try to deceive me, I will grant you a fate worse than Hell itself.”
Seeing Julian’s face angered Z but he knew his place. “Whatever…”
With that said, Z blasted off into the sky and took off into the sky.

[Drahcir]

After many twists and turns, Drahcir came to a spot where the hallway continued forward, and there was an upwards staircase to the right. He could hear voices from the staircase.
"...be back before the sun sets completely," came the voice of the redhead.
At this point Sonidow walked into the area and stopped to listen.
"Confident, aren't we?" came the reply that could only be Julian. "Noir is no pushover. You know this from your previous encounter."
"That was then."
Pause.
"Oh and, by the way, if you try to decieve me, I will grant you a fate worse than Hell itself."
"Whatever."
After they heard a door shut, Sonidow muttered to himself, "So Julian is using that redhead against Noir."
"It would seem that way," replied Drahcir, fading back to visibility.
Sonidow seemed somewhat taken aback. "When did you get here?"
"Oh a bit before you did. Pressure manipulation is useful."
"Well then. Shall we see if we can find a way out and warn the others?"

Noir fought head-to-head against the redheaded man, who clearly had the advantage. Noir retreated at furious speeds, barely managing to keep up with the redhead's attacks.
But then Manji appeared out of nowhere behind the redhead with a battle cry. As the redheaded man turned, Noir ended the fight with a blow to the side.

(Expect more edits if no one posts after this)

[Elias]

Manji looked at Noir then at redheaded man.
"Do you know him?"
"I only remember his name which was Z."
"Z, you say that his name is Z but that isn't his name isn't it."
"Well, yes but he doesn't know his name ether, I think."
"Let's go back, okay, I think it's better to go back."
Then Manji drew a circular shape in mid air with his sword and spawned a portal, then he looked back at Z and saw some ring in his hand. Manji said to Noir to go back while he looks one more time at Z. Manji took Z hand that was wearing the ring and took the ring and potted in his pocket. He was thinking of leaving him here but he knew that he was weak to get out of this world so he picked him up and dragged him to the portal.
"Where is everybody else." Then Manji came out of the portal with Z.
"What are you thinking Manji, he will kill us all."
"No he want, I took the ring which made him stronger and I must take him to Crimson One."
Manji made a portal to Noir and gave him a red tea leaf. "When you are ready just make tea with this leaf and give a cup to everybody, you will be back to the town Cikuro."
Then Noir went into the portal while Manji slowly disappeared into his shadow with Z.

Sorry to anyone who hadn't this in mind.
Also I wrote this story as I was writing it.

@Evil: Sorry it's just that Drachir made it confusing for me.

[Zabobula]

Something strange began to happen as they warped through the circular portal. Manji noticed that Z’s downed body was glowing red and purple.
“What the Hell’s going on?” Manji muttered to himself.

Far away the Crimson One’s meditation broke and he began yelling madly in the shadows. His body could not be seen but his voice could be heard for miles. The shadows began receding as his body also began glowing red and purple. Then all of a sudden he warped through space itself and his spirit was thrown eastward.

Then he realized the mistake he made. He should’ve kept the ring on his finger. Before him and Noir were transported out of the portal, they both caught a glimpse of a crimson red spirit entering Z’s body through his nose, mouth, and his ears.
As Noir disappeared through the portal, Z’s body rose up from the ground facing Manji. His eyes were closed for the moment, and then they opened showing that malevolent purple.
Manji began to experience sweat. He had never feared like this before. The eyes of Z literally made him petrified. But with the little resolve that he had, he drew his sword and prepared for combat.
“You should have kept the ring on my finger.” Z said walking towards him slowly. “But now, your death will be a lot more painful for interrupting me.”
