Dawson merely just shrugged. He had to admit, it WAS getting awfully late, not to mention all that happened, he was pretty tired as well. "Well...I think I'll stay up for a bit, I need to think of how we could defeat Draco. Besides, we need someone to keep watch in case of bandits" he said. He took out his Flux tome and flipped through the pages. He sighed as he read the pages from it, causing dark energy to form on his fingertips. "Like I said...I never really liked using Elder magic...but I hate to admit it, but it did save me from time and again..."
As he sat on the ground, he looked up at the sky. There must be some way we can defeat Draco easily...but how? He has practically every trick up his sleeve that he could use to counter what we've got, multiple dark magic to take on Bee as well as some elementals in case we find light magic to use... Thats when his face lit up. "I know from when I first had my match, my memory might be rusty since it's been years, but I think he used a dark magic called Luna, it was really painful, it actually felt like it was ripping my soul from my body! Then he had another called Nosferatu, any damage he took when he used that, he pretty much negated, it felt like he absorbed part of my soul..." he said to himself.
He then stood up and sighed. I know she said it wasn't my fault for her suffering...but I still could never forgive myself for what I've done...I could make it up to myself and help her defeat Draco like I said that I would.

"Luna and Nosferatu, yeah you both are going to die", spoke Elementious as he stared at the boy. Bee on the other had had toned both of them out. She was too tired to listen. She just crawled into her tent and passed out. Elementious prepared a fire outside and began to talk to the shaman about magic. He had already decided that he would be the second watch, thought he did not think they needed one. The Inn was literally a stone throw away. If they came the inn watch would see them and get ready. On that point however he had decided that they needed to take Bee out the watch rotation. There was no way she would get up and on that point he did not trust his life to a sleepy Bee. He barely trusted a awake one.
As the duo talked Bee began to dream. Her mind finally got the rest it needed. She dreamed that night, of hell. The fires that burned her village to the ground. The long hours she spent in the hands of Darco. She dreamed of her mother, who use to work the forge, and of her father who use to sale salt. she even dreamed of her brother, as lost as he was. She also dreamed of Draco, burning surrounded by all of his sins. It was a good dream, but all dreams had to come to a end. Bee awoke at the crack of dawn. As she exited the tent she was meet with the new morning light. Her boy felt a surge of energy almost as if the golden rays themselves were filling her with there power. "Look the east is burning red", spoke Bee as a smile crossed her face. She then stumped her foot causing her metal rod to flip off the ground. Catching it with her hand Bee began to draw upon the power of her tome. She was in control again and the power of heat ran though the metal pole. Her hand was kept safe by the thick leather gaurd in the middle. She was ready, ready for whatever the day had to throw at her.

Dawson stretched as he looked up at the now morning sky. Granted he was more of an night owl possibly because of his late night trainings with Draco before he escaped, he still enjoyed seeing the morning light as it peeked through the Ilian sky. "Yes...your right Bee...the morning burns bright..." he said. For the first time ever, he actually looked forward to what the day brought. He could tell that Bee was in a much better mood today than last night. He then faced the other mage who looked like he was about half asleep. He didn't blame him, he spent a lot of the night keeping watch as did Dawson. He decided to let the mage be in case he needed more rest.
He stood up as he stretched. He picked up his Flux tome and stuffed it back in his satchel. He then looked at Bee and then said "Nice trick there, you must really be experience if your able to channel fire through your rod like that" Dawson said. He then looked back up at the morning sky. "It's days like this...days like this that brings back good memories of my family back in Lycia before I was taken from them. We were so happy together, just me and my parents..." he then sighed, talking about his family and life in Lycia was painful considering what Draco did. "...Before that monster, Draco came in and deliberately targeted my home, burning it with my parents trapped inside, murdered in cold blood...but I will not let that drag me down...I will be strong...strong enough for me-nay, for US to defeat Draco and make him pay for his crimes!" Dawson said, giving off a determined look in his eyes. He was ready for whatever the day brought to him.

"Where there is light, there will always be shadows, and where there are shadows there will always be the darkest darkness. Thus says Draco Guro as he cast down a foolish priest of the light", spoke a blacked robbed man as he stood atop a hill. His entire face was completely covered from head to toe in black cloth. Black bandages were wrapped around his hands an legs, and a thick hood covered his face. Two crimson lights could be seen shining thought the veil as the man stared down at the trio from the top of the tavern On his back was a greatsword and at his side was a iron chain.
"Long time no see Dawson", spoke the figure grabbing Bee's attention.
"Who the ...", spoke Bee as she was cut short. As her eyes meet the man a malestorm of fear began to swell up inside of her stomach. "Black Dog", spoke Bee as her mind rushed back to the days she was in Draco's care. There were plenty of these guys. Men and women who were always cloaked in black and did whatever Draco commanded. At the time she thought they were normal servents. Now however she figured they were probably some kind of magical slave or maybe even cultist.
"Ah you as well Bee", he spoke as he looked down at the pink hair mage. "Your master has called for you and has sent me here to collect. Offer your lives without resistance and I will bring you both in alive", spoke the man.
"Thorn", spoke Elementious as he jumped up and shot a bolt of lighting out of his hand. Unlike Bee or Dowson he had no idea who this man was or who Draco Guro really was. For him he was simply a crazy guy standing onto of a building and a easy target to take down. Lighting was the fastest and most destructive off all the magic. one shot is all it will take thought Elementious to himself.
As the bolt of lighting left the man's finger tips the black cloaked figure drew out the large sword on its back. With a single swing it cut through the lightning bolt, a feat Bee thought she would never see. To her and Elementious great surprise the bolt of lightning vanished. The energy dissipated the moment it touched the blade.
"Regal", spoke Bee in horror as she realized how screwed they were.

Dawson turned at the voice that spoke out. He glared at the figure in black as he instinctively grabbed his flux tome from his satchel. He knew that these guys were directly under Draco and did whatever he said. Whether it was for someone to be "silenced" or to be captured much like he was, they did it without question. The blade the person had was practically every mages worst nightmare regards if they used the elements, light, or even elder itself: Regal...
He opened his Flux tome and caused dark energy to form in his hands. He knew that it would do practically nothing to the figure in black due to the regal blade in hand, but he figured he try and slow him down while he let Bee and her friend escape. "Listen Bee...I'm going to slow this guy down...I will not let them take you again, nor will I let them do what atrocities they committed in the past. So, I need you and your friend to escape, theres nothing our magic can do to him because of that Regal Blade... he said to her quietly. He then looked back up at the figure in black and glared at him. "You...I will not...we will not go back to Draco that monster. He will not continue with what he done in the past and I will not allow you!" Dawson yelled out. He then fired off the dark energy as he made more appear around him. I won't let them take her again, I won't let them take me back either...NEVER! Dawson thought to himself.

"Don't be a fool", spoke Bee as she looked at Dawson. It took ever ounce of courage in her body to not flee, but Bee was going no where. If she could not stand up to one of Guro's Black Dogs then how was she going to stand up to him. Still that changed very little. Black Dogs were designed to kill mages. There was a reason Draco held so much power in the cult. His black dogs could cut down any one of the shamans that made up the cult and they would do so with no fear for there lives. They were pretty much living monsters.
"If I can't stand up to one of his pets then I have no chance of defeating him."
"There is no way I am going to let him get away after he dishonored my lighting", spoke Elementious. The mage stepped forward and shot another bolt of electricity. Like last time the Black Dog blocked it with his blade. The man rushed forward aiming to cut down the lightning mage. However he was meet with a sudden surprises.
"Ignite", spoke Bee as she snapped her fingers. The fire spirits went to work. They compressed together and then exploded out with great force. Bee had timed her attack to go off right after Elementious shot off his lighting bolt. The explosion caught the fiend off guard and sent a wave of crimson flames all over his body.
"Wench", he shouted as he jumped backwards. The flames however could not stick to him. His cloak was designed to take the heat. Guro knew what his soldiers were getting into and he outfitted them accordingly. For this mission his robes were fire resistance as he knew Bee so loved the flames.
"oh looks like magic does work after all", spoke Elementious as he fired off another bolt of lighting. Bee sent off another wave of flames. However this time the Black Dog was ready. With impressive speed he sliced though both the bolt of lighting and Bee's compression ball of flames. He charged forward at full speed hoping to strike at the duo before they could set off another attack.

Dawson nodded. He was afraid she'd say something like that, but he knew he had no power to force her. He then faced the black figure that charged at the two mages. "Oh no you don't!" Dawson said as he sent out dark energy at the black figure. He glared at the black figure in the process. He knew that the regal blade only works if it made contact with the magic spell itself. No way would he be able to deflect the spells if fired from multiple angles, I just hope Bee and her mage friend there catches on. he thought as sweat began to form. Of course, if Bee was forced into melee, she could use her rod, but that might be a last resort
"We will not be defeat by you!" Dawson said, gripping his flux tome in hand. He knew it was going to be a tough battle, especually with that Regal blade that the black figure wielded. It could really hurt if it hit either one of them. He was not going to let himself or Bee be taken back to Draco, dead or alive. "I've been done with Draco ever since that day, I will not go back to him, and I never will! I will not let you take her back to be used as a test subject either, today, you will feel only a fraction of what I will do to Draco, and it will be painful!" He yelled out. He then sent another shot of dark energy at the black figure in rage.

Black Dog charged forward looking to make a kill. However Dawson forced him to stop his momentum when he fired off one of his orbs of darkness. Caught off guard Black Dog was forced to block the attack with the flat of the blade. The mystical metal did its word and dispelled the magic. However in that brief moment Bee snapped her fingers and sent forth another magical attack. However Black Dog was quick on his feet. He rolled to his left and dodged the radius of the fire. Elementious bolt of lighting soon follows suit, but the boys aim was off and the blast shoot to far to the right. Black Dog charged forward like before. Dawson let out another blast of dark magic, but the hell hound had already created a counter to there onslaught.
"Foolish little mages", he shouted as he jumped into the air. His body soared over Dawson's attack and Bee's quickly fired explosion. As the man's body cut thought the air he sent his body into a quick vortex like spin. Instead of his body turning to the side it moved in like a front flip. With monsterious speed his blade cut though the air and came down toward his two targets. Elementious, being the only one who had not fired yet, shot off his bolt of lighting toward the descending figure. His attack however was meet with the edge of the blade and the magic canceled out.
"Oh god", screamed Elementious as a sea of crimson erupted into the air. The man had struck and Elementious was the first to go down. His sword has sliced clean though the bolt of lightning and came down right across the man's chest. The slash was powered by the entire weight of the man's body. Elemintious was just lucky he did not get split completely into two, thought Black Dog came close to pulling it off.
"Elementious", shouted Bee with concern. However her concern quickly turned form there down comrade to her self when Black Dog suddenly jolted up. With a fearsome counter attack the man struck out with his Regal Blade. The sword aimed to split the maiden's bowls like a old women's purse. Bee reacted in the best manner she could. Pulling up her steel pole Bee was able to stave off the blade, but the force of the attack not only disarmed Bee, but sent her weapon flying off and straight into the window of the Bar. Bee herself was thrown backwards and off her feet.
"Now you die", shouted Black Dog as he pulled up his blade. to strike.

Dawson gasped as he saw Black Dog strike at the thunder mage. He had no time to grasp what happened when he saw Black Dog then rush at Bee, sending her rod flying through the inn. Dawson then made more dark energy form in his hand. He hesitated slightly. If I send my dark energy at him from here, I might accidentally hit Bee, I can't let that happen... he thought as he looked around. The rod was inside the inn, he could go for that and maybe find some help inside, but Bee could get killed by the time he comes back out. He could rush right at Black Dog, but it could result in HIS death. Dawson was very limited on ideas that he could do.
He had no choice, it was either try to hit Black Dog, or risk him killing Bee. Dawson sent flying dark energy at Black Dog at his back. No way he'd be able to detect that, I will not let Draco win! he thought. He then prepared to launch another wave of dark energy at Black Dog. He tightly gripped his tome with his other hand as he glared at Black Dog, channeling his anger into the dark energy itself. "I will NOT let you hurt her, nor will you take either of us!" Dawson said as he sent flying another wave of Dark energy. He was not going to die here, he was not going to let Bee die here either, not without making Draco pay for his crimes!

As Black Dog prepared to strike down Bee a ball of black mgic slammed into his back. The fiend screamedi n agony as the dark magic ripped though his body. It was painful, the bite of magic, but it was a familiar pain. He knew the pain all to well. Thoughout his entire trianing dark magic was used to discipline him. As the second bolt came Black Dog turned around and slicked the orb with his blade. The magic disapated like before.
While Dawson distracted him Bee took the opertunity to recover. She wanted nothing more than to run, but that was not a option at the moment. The maiden rushed across the snow and grabbed Elementious by his shirt and dragged his body by his shirt and dragged him away from Black Dog. Blood was pouring quickly from his body and he needed medical attention quickly, but Bee could not do anything next to Black Dog.
Giving off a fearsome roar Black Dog charged toward Dawson with his blade at the ready. For a moment Bee had time to work. Calling upon the power of her tome Bee summoned up flames. "Crap", shouted Bee as she realized she did not have anything to heat up. She needed something metal. She needed to stop the bleeding. "Come on", she spoke as she began to look around. Eventually Bee decided to hand the metal. She would simply use flames. Calling upon the power of fire Bee prepared to burn the wounds shut, or at least try.
"Your going to kill him quicker than the blade", spke a voice from behind Bee. Before the maiden could turn around a hard rod struck her in the head. It was a light blow, but it still hurt like hell.
"What the...", spoke Bee as she looked up to see the barkeep standing above her. With a wave of his staff a bright blue energy enveloped the body of the wounded Elementious as healing magic closed his wounds and began to work on his body. "I beleive this belongs to you", spoke the man as he dropped Bee's metal rod next to her. The maiden was still rubbing her head but she stared in awe at the power the mage had.

Dawson glared at Black Dog as he then rushed right at him. Thats right...its time you learned your place! He thought as he lobbed more dark energy at Black Dog. He then glared at Black Dog, daring him to continue running at him. He then launched another dark energy at him, aiming for his legs. Dawson knew that Black Dog would only use the Regal Blade to block the magic attacks... Damn...if only we had another fighter here, like a swordsman or a lancer... There was no time for "if onlys", Dawson needed to act quickly to take down Black Dog. Or else he, Bee, and the already injured Thunder Mage were bound to get killed!
He quickly looked over at Bee. Dawson was pleased to see she wasn't injured, and pleased more to see the Barkeeper healing the injured thunder mage. "We got you outnumbered, why don't you go running back to Draco with you tail tucked under like the dog you really are! Your end will come!" Dawson said. He was not going to lose now, not ever to Draco. He then fired more dark energy in the air as they start to fall over Black Dog. "When I tell you to leave us be, I mean, leave us alone!" Dawson yelled at Black Dog. He was angry now, he was going to kill Draco with his own hands if need be. Dawson was not going to let that criminal escape, continuing to cause harm to innocent people like him and Bee...

"Damn it", spoke Black Dog as he repelled the dark energy attacks. The young boy was laying the magic on thick. He had been fighting like a dog all day against the three little magi and yet for some reason none of them were dead. Well that was no true. One of them was, or at least to Black Dogs knowledge. Still his arms were beginning to tire. Swinging his blade around to respond to all of there attacks was tiresome, but not only that but he had taken a few really good hits from there magic. His resistance to magic was great, but all the attacks were starting to wear him down. "I just need to push in for the kill", Black Dog spoke to himself. However the entire situation shifted on him when he started to hear voices coming out from the bar. The amount of magic that was being thrown around outside had grabbed the attention of the patrons of the bar. Not to mention Bee's rod flying thought the wind. Black Dog was willing to take on three mages or maybe even four, but a entire bar. That was not going to happen.
"Damn you Dawson", spoke Black Dog as he stared at the shaman. "I will remember this", he shouted as he pulled a ball out of his bag and threw it onto the ground. It created a big puff ball of smoke that spread across the area. In a instant Black Dog was gone. The only trace of him left was a ring that had accidentally fallen out of his bag. It was the symbol of Draco Guro.
"He is finally gone", spoke Bee as she looked around to be sure. The Barkeep had turned his attention back toward Elementious. The man's blade had done some serious damage. After he closed the wounds he figured the boy would be already, but after further examine him he realized that the lad had some internal bleeding going on. This was not going to be a easy fix.
"Wilson", spoke Bee as she looked on with horror. The young lads face started to turn a shade blue.
"Poison", spoke the Barkeep as his staff did its work.

Dawson breathed a sigh of relief...Black Dog finally retreated...but at what cost? He turned to face Bee and the thunder mage, whom was being tended to by the healer. He closed his flux tome and knelled in exhaustion. "We...did it..." he said in exhaustion. That was close, if it was just me or even just Bee, there would have been no way we would have defeated him... Dawson thought. He was just thankful that the barkeeper and the patrons in the bar helped with their battle with Black Dog. If it weren't for them, he, Bee, the thunder mage, or even all of them would have been killed.
Dawson slowly got up and walked toward Bee and the thunder mage. He then faced the barkeeper and nodded to him weakly. "How...is he doing?" he said, still clearly exhausted. This was only a minion of Draco. If Dawson had this much trouble defeating just ONE of Dracos minions, there was no way he could take on Draco the way he is now. He needed to get stronger...stronger before Draco found him or Bee again..."And...how are you doing Bee...you doing alright?"he said in between breaths. Using this much elder magic really drained Dawson of his energy. Out of all of the magic, Elder Magic consumed the most energy when it's being casted. The last time he felt like that was when he trained with Draco. He thought he would collapse any second from using this much energy in fact.

"Crap", spoke Bee as she stared down at Elementious. The barkeep continued his magic, but it was clear how all this was going to end. The man did not have any magic to counter act the poison and Elementious was already grievously wounded. Elementious was going to die. Tear buds began to form in the young maiden's eyes as that very fact started to dawn on her. She had known the boy since she had been a novice and the two of them had crossed paths on more than one occasion. Now in this god forsaken frozen hell hole he was going to die and it was all Bee's fault. If he had never meet her or if the two of them would not have been hanging out he would still be alive. He would still be shooting his lighting magic across taverns and giving praise to the power of lighting. However that was no more. He was dieing.
How is he doing, asked Dawson. His words were the final straw that broke the camels back. Tears began to flow from Bee's eyes as she stared down at the boy. What started as a small stream soon turned into a fearsome river. Snot started to come out of her nose as she began to wail with every fiber in her body. She had lost a friend, a comrade. Someone who shared the same passion as she did. It was disheartening.
"Sorry youngin", spoke the barkeep as he stopped using his magic. "There is nothing else I can do. At this point you might as well say our good byes. Also I will be ...", boasted the barkeep, but after he looked at Bee's sad face he stopped himself. It was not the time for that. He can charge her for the window at a later date. Maybe once she had calmed down.
