**********
The doors slowly opened and I had to close my eyes as the light poured out of the room and blinded me.
In my temporary state of blindness, a sudden thought struck me.
Why haven't I used my powers to escape? I wondered.
Because of two things: One; we need to meet this Nirilana. Two; we are not totally comfortable with these new powers. I answered myself.
I opened my eyes slowly and my vision returned. I was standing out the front of a giant, circular chamber. At the very back of the chamber was a giant pillar that looked as if it was made out of molten rock. It seethed and I thought that it must lead into the very centre of the planet. There was a giant throne in front of the pillar and seated upon it was a large, pale-blue dragoness. She was obviously Nirilana and I shuddered with a sudden premonition. Nirilana was going to cause me great harm by hurting someone close to me. Anger, frustration and an acute feel of helplessness swept through my body.
It was almost as if Nirilana sensed the emotions swirling through my body, because she suddenly laughed. Peal upon peal of laughter swept through the chamber.
'So, you are the mighty Darkstar? The one who has terrorised my people? The one who cannot die? I do not think you are the one we have been waiting for. You harbour power within you, yes. The power surpasses our own, yes. But you do not know how to wield it and are too afraid to! We must look somewhere else for our Saviour then. You, Darkstar, are pathetic! Yet I sense something else within you... something... familiar... yet I cannot find its source...' Nirilana sat there staring intently at me.
I could feel her power searching within me and it angered me.
How dare this bitch seek for something within my body! I growled at her and focused my power.
Nirilana suddenly jerked and flinched as my power forced hers from my body. I grinned evilly and turned my back on her. As I began to move towards the exit, I felt claws reach out and grab me. I snarled and the dragons that had tried to stop me suddenly flew back and smashed into the wall. I reached the closed doors and sent out a brief flash of power. The doors shrieked and groaned as the wood shattered and splintered and the metal bent and snapped.
I was walking along the tunnels, completely lost, trying to find a way out, when the ground below me opened up and a large clawed hand drew me downwards.
I opened my eyes and looked around. I was laying on my back on a natural stone platform. There was fire, blood and spikes everywhere. I looked directly up and saw a creature like no other standing over me.
I quickly rolled to the side and leapt to my feet, drawing my Dragonblade as I did so.
'Who are you? Where am I?' I demanded of the creature. He was massive; a large black and red creature with a long tail and two pointed horns growing out the top of his head.
'I? I am Nano, one of the under-lords of hell. Where are you? Do you not know?' He laughed as I shook my head. 'Where else but hell, my good dragon. I brought you down here to save your life and set you on the path of vengeance.'
I raised my lip and snarled at him. 'I need no help! I am powerful enough to crush Nirilana and her minions with ease!'
Nano just continued laughing. 'Powerful, you may be. But you do not know how to use this power nor do you like it. Therefore I shall give you certain knowledge that will save your life one day soon.' Nano reached out and placed a hand on my head.
Suddenly, images rushed past my eyes. Images of power, of freedom, of sacrifice and of revenge. A sudden hope welled up in my body and I knew that I would be the one to put an end to all the suffering that the people of Kiralan had been put through by the Black Guardians and the Crusaders. I felt a sudden awakening in me and another presence joined me. I could feel my Soul within me. Nano looked down at me and smiled.
'Good, I see that you accept your fate.' He said.
My fate? What exactly does he mean by that? I asked myself.
Your fate is what you want it to be, not what anyone says it must be. My Soul replied.
I grinned back at Nano. 'Are you going to send me back now?' I asked.
'Not just yet. There is one more thing I must say. Study well the paths of Stormsun. Understand his strengths and weaknesses. Train yourself in the use of your own power too, as these things will help you in your task.' And with that said, Nano waved his hand and I went flying up, up through the roof of the hellish chamber.
I awoke to the smell of flowers and to the feel of love. I was lying on a table in Avyn's room. She was looking at me happily, with love and lust in her eyes.
'It is about time you awoke, Darkstar.' She said quietly.
'Avyn? What happened? Last thing I remember... how did I get here?' I was confused.
'Well, I came back into my chamber after lunch and found you just lying there. I have watched over you, waiting for you to awake so I can find out why you came here, yet you claim no knowledge as to how you arrived?' She asked, tilting her head to the side a little.
I shook my head and wondered why Nano had sent me here, of all places. Still it did not matter. I could plainly see that Avyn wanted something other than just knowledge from me.
**********
Avyn grunted as I thrust deeply into her, my cock filling her completely. She groaned and moaned with pleasure as I thrust deeper and deeper into her pussy. I let out a roar and pulled myself out of her. I moved around in front of her and shoved my cock into her mouth.
'Suck on it!' I growled and Avyn happily complied. She sucked on it with such passion that I had to control myself to stop from cumming into her mouth straight away.
I began to thrust into her mouth, loving the way her tongue flicked over the head of my cock when I drew back and the way her hands gently caressed and played with my balls. I felt something rub against my leg and looked down to see Avyn's tail making its way towards my ass. I moaned with pleasure as her tail went up my asshole. I loved every second of our passionate lovemaking. I reached over and gave Avyn's ass a swat before plunging my cock down her throat. I grunted and growled as Avyn happily sucked on my cock. To return the favour, I manoeuvred my own tail under her belly and began to rub it over her pussy, making her gasp with pleasure. I suddenly shoved it in and Avyn squealed with delight. I could feel my orgasm building so I doubled my thrusting. Avyn choked and gagged as my cock was shoved down her throat and I roared as I came, filling her mouth and belly. A little of my cum dripped down the side of her mouth as she tried to swallow it all. She drew her tail out of my ass and stood up. I licked the cum off the side of her face, loving the taste of it, and kissed her passionately.
Avyn pushed me to the ground and climbed on top of me. She slowly lowered herself down and gasped as my cock slid back into her waiting pussy. She moaned with pleasure as she rode my cock, bouncing up and down. I could feel the walls of her pussy close around my cock as she orgasmed, squealing with the pleasure and I began thrusting up into her, wanting to cum again. I moved my tail up behind her and shoved it up her tight ass. Avyn gasped and groaned as she was penetrated by both my cock and my tail. I grunted as she orgasmed again, her juices coating my cock, balls and legs. She gasped as she felt my hot cum spurting through her womb, filling her with a fire that no amount of water could put out. She orgasmed again and slumped against me. I gave her ass a couple of friendly swats before drawing my tail out, bringing it to my muzzle and tasting her butt-juices. I grinned and drew Avyn's mouth to mine. I kissed her passionately and long lines of saliva still linked her with me as she drew back. We both lay, contently, in a puddle of cum, sweat and pussy juices.
Deep inside, I felt shame for cheating on Rasani like this and hoped, god I hoped, that she never found out about Avyn and me.
After lying still for an hour with Avyn dozing lightly on my chest, I carefully used my powers to pick her up and created a large fluffy cushion and placed her on it. She murmured something in her sleep and snuggled up deeper in the cushion.
I walked over to the door, picked up my Dragonblade and its scabbard, strapped them in place and sent a single thought towards Avyn.
I love you, Avyn. Please, stay safe for me.
I felt her smile and sigh in her sleep, so, grinning to myself, I stepped out of her chamber and made my way back to the Kermani mansion. Upon entering, I was bowled over and kissed into submission by Rasani.
'I thought that I had lost you...' She whispered into my ear. 'And if I ever did, then I do not know what I would do...'
I hugged her closer and rested my head on her shoulder.
'Know, my love that I will never, ever, leave you. We were meant to be. My heart always will belong to you and you only.' I whispered back.
But, deep within me, I wondered the truthfulness of my sentence. Was it truly Rasani that I loved more than life itself, or could it be Avyn? I hated the hole that I had dug myself into and swore to resolve my problem one day.
Rasani got up off me and dragged me to my feet.
'Father will be most pleased to see you, as he deeply feels the guilt for not making sure that you were constantly behind him.
He has been constantly worrying since he came home and will be relieved to see you well.' She said as she dragged me though the house.
We walked into one of the few rooms that I had not yet entered, and saw Bertain sitting in a chair with his back to the door, holding a large bottle of liquor in his left hand. Rasani leapt forward and took the bottle from him.
Bertain growled and stood up to take the bottle back, but stopped as he caught sight of me. He blinked three times and rubbed his eyes.
'Darkstar? Is that truly you?' He asked, doubt plaguing his voice.
'Yes, yes it is. The Black Guardians captured me just before I reached the mansion, drugged me and took me to their base.' I said gravely.
Seeing the depression in his eyes, I added, 'there was nothing you could have done, Bertain, believe me.'
Bertain forced a smile to his face and I groaned inwardly. There was nothing I could say at the moment to stop him from feeling as if it was his fault that I was captured. He looked at Rasani and held out his hand for the bottle.
'No... I think you have had enough.' She said and she threw the bottle away.
Bertain just stared at her with slightly unfocused eyes before slumping back down on the chair and staring at one of the walls.
I quietly walked over to Rasani, placed an arm around her shoulders and gently led her out of the room.
Once out of the room, Rasani burst into tears.
'I can't stand to see him like this,' she sobbed, 'He is blaming himself for your capture and not even you could convince him otherwise. I hope he can snap out of it soon.'
I held her close and tried to soothe her. Bertain, I would deal with tomorrow. Thanks to Nano, I now had a new purpose. What that purpose was, I could not fathom, but I knew that I would find out at the right time.
As Rasani and I lay on one of the large couches in the library, sharing each other's warmth, Cynda burst in, looking for Rasani.
She looked at me with disbelief and then smiled brightly.
'I knew you would be back! Nothing can keep you two apart, it seems.' She laughed with relief.
I nodded sombrely.
'Cynda, there was nothing Bertain could have done. I was captured by Nirilana, Queen of the Black Guardians, and taken prisoner. I managed to escape and fought my way out. Once I was safe again, I headed back here. I ask you to keep an eye on Bertain this evening. I will bring him out of his depression tomorrow, but right now, I am rather tired.' I explained.
Cynda nodded once, smiled at Rasani and left the room.
'Now, where were we?' Asked Rasani slyly.
******
Rasani gasped as I spread her legs apart and breathed lightly on her wet pussy. I could smell the lust in the air and that drove me on. I flicked my tongue over her lips, as she squirmed and groaned. Her tail wrapped itself around my growing cock and began to rub up and down. I moaned with the pleasure and stuck my muzzle into her pussy and began licking the walls and eating her out. Rasani squealed as she began to orgasm, filling my mouth with her lovely juices. I pulled my muzzle out, licked my lips, grinned at her and went back for more. Suddenly, I felt power wrap itself around my body and I was rotated, I looked over my shoulder and saw Rasani grinning happily and staring at my cock. I dove back into her pussy as she began to lightly flick her tongue over the head of my cock. I groaned and growled and wished she would stop with the teasing. I thrust downwards, my cock shoving its way into her open mouth. Her gasp of surprise quickly turned into a purr as she happily began sucking. I rolled over, dragging her with me, so that she was now resting on my stomach. I began thrusting upwards into her muzzle, my cock slipping down her throat. Rasani squirmed a little and pressed her pussy down onto my face, wanting more pleasure. I happily gave it to her. With my tongue in her pussy, I brought up one claw and stuck it in, lubricating it. I then moved that claw up under her tail, towards her ass. Rasani gasped and murred as she felt my claw penetrate her asshole. I grinned into her pussy as she orgasmed again. I could feel my own orgasm building so I pushed her off of me, got on my knees, dragged her towards my cock, and shoved it up her ass.
Rasani cried out as she felt my large cock slide up her ass. The pleasure was well beyond anything she had ever experienced and she began rubbing her dripping pussy to increase the intensity of the pleasure.
'Here, let me do that for you.' I said and shoved the tip of my tail up her pussy. Rasani moaned and began thrusting back at me, which made me roar with delight. I could feel her orgasm building so I began thrusting faster and harder. She squealed as she came for a third time. I roared as my cock began to unload my cum into her waiting ass. As I opened my mouth, a stream of fire left it and set fire to the roof above us. I collapsed on top of Rasani and stared at the fire for a full minute before realising what it was and quickly putting it out.
'I know sex is supposed to be hot, but I did not think that it could actually set fire to the place.' Rasani joked and I could hear the exhaustion in her voice.
I grinned and lay down next to her. I felt power envelope the room and suddenly the library looked as if we had never been there. Gone was the puddle of cum and pussy juices. Gone were the blackened spots on the roof where the fire had damaged it. And gone was the sweet, sweet smell of our love. Rasani grinned at me and I decided to show off a bit of my power as well. I focused on us and my bed and suddenly we were teleported into my room and onto my bed. Rasani sighed, snuggled up closer to me and drifted off to sleep. I lay there, staring at her for a while longer, before joining her in sleep.
Once again, my dreams that night were anything but peaceful. I dreamed that I was floating through space, constantly being taunted by some unknown force. This force was like a dark shadow, constantly behind me, yet never being seen. I tried to close out the taunts and jeers from the shadow, whom I now believed to be the Silver Dragon from my vision, yet had no success.
Suddenly, the universe around me went quiet and I saw a brilliant flash of light. I turned away from the light and saw that I was standing in a field of grass. The light died away and I turned back to where the light had been. There was a simple small wooden box on the ground. I walked over and picked it up. I heard a voice in my head and this one was not taunting me.
Darkstar, the box you hold in your hand must never be opened until you discover the Heart Incarnate. Your main purpose in life shall be to guard and protect the Heart. Fail this task, and you doom the universe. Remember everything that you have been told and use that knowledge to your advantage in the battles to come. Remember not to open the box prematurely, lest you be destroyed. Go now, with our blessing. Farewell, Darkstar, we will not meet again anytime soon.
The voice died down and disappeared, leaving me clutching this tiny wooden box. I wanted to know what was inside, but I also knew that opening it now would mean my death.
Slowly the field faded away and I was left, drifting among the stars once more. Peace filled my heart and I slept contentedly.
