One of the Last Morrigan Pt. 13

Love you all! <3

You had been following Eretria for a while now, once again back in dark tunnels. She was easily leading the way without any hesitations on which way to go. “We’re close.” She spoke up after a while of silence. “How do you know that? And what happened to you back there?” Amberle stops her, a hand on her arm. Worry was filling her voice and eyes. You and Wil watch the interaction between the two, the same questions floating through your minds.

“I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like I can feel the map in my blood. Like it’s part of me.” Eretria says while looking at the pattern on her arm. “That’s the reason you were in my vision. Why the Ellcrys wanted you here.” “I thought it was to make sure you didn’t get yourself killed, but sure why not.” She responded to Amberle with a grin on her face. With that she turned and started off down the hallway again. “So is this what it feels like when you use your Elfstones?” She asked, glancing back at Wil.

“What do you mean?” He asked, walking alongside you at the back.

“I feel invincible.” “I usually feel like I’ve been set on fire or beaten with a shovel, so… no.” At his words, you felt like the breath was knocked out of you. That had to be horrible to endure each time. “This should be it.” Eretria said before heading to the set of stairs where different colored lights were glowing from.

“Nothing ominous about that.” Wil said, you nodding in agreement while lacing your fingers with his. At the top of the stairs, you walk through a broken section of wall into a derelict room. Amberle set her torch down before moving further into the room. Eretria and Wil followed suit, setting theirs down as well. “We made it.” She said, looking around at everything. “Okay… so where is the bloodfire?” Wil asked, guiding you into the middle of the room while looking around.

“It’s here… I can feel it.” Eretria spoke, looking at a pedestal with a sort of clear cage in it, a sharpened point on the top.

“In my vision, you guys are standing beneath the window.” Amberle spoke, pointing to a spot as she looked at Wil and Eretria. “Wil on the left.” Both moved up the few steps and turned around. You started to get a bad feeling as you stood next to Amberle.

“Aaannnd… nothing.” Wil spoke, his face showing confusion. Within moments a golden light started to form on the ground between you all.

“I take that back.” Wil said, moving to your side as Amberle knelt down and cleared the ground around the symbol. It was the same tattoo symbol again.

“I guess this means we’re in the right place.” Wil said.

“Now what.” Eretria asked, looking at Amberle. “I don’t know. But we need to figure it out.” She said, standing up and starting to move around looking at everything again. It was then that you started to hear whispers.

‘No one enters, no one leaves…’

Okay, creepy voices in the creepy derelict room. Definitely not good at all. Your eyes started to flit around, stepping into Wil’s side. “Wait, do you hear that?” Amberle asked. “Glad it is not just me.” You murmur quietly. At that moment the light changes and a blonde woman floats out of the shadows with a slight screech and hiss.

“No one enters.” “And no one leaves.” You turn around at the second voice. A dark haired woman floats out in the same way. Their faces flashing between whole and normal looking and half decayed and dead looking.

“Who are you!” Eretria asks, pulling her dagger out. Wil pulled his dagger out as well and Amberle unsheathed her sword.

“Guardians of the Bloodfire.” They both speak at the same time. You had been shuffled behind Wil and at their words you gripped one of the leather straps over his back. “Who among you… Dares to seek… The bloodfire?” They speak, both as one and yet separately. “I do. Amberle Elessedil of Arborlon.”

The two start to circle the four of you. “I was chosen.” Amberle spoke, though you heard nothing from the two women circling you.

“What are they telling you?” Wil asked, obviously he couldn’t hear anything they were saying to Amberle also.

At this point, Wil had the elfstones out. You glared at them, Their eyes only connecting with you once or twice. “You should not be here. You are in the way of everything.” They taunted you. You glared at them, the fire in your blood rising. The moment you shifted, they seemed to shrink back from you a hair. Taking that moment, you glanced around, Wil was looking worried and scared.

Reaching out, you laced your fingers with Wil’s free hand. He shook his head, scrunching his eyes shut before grunting softly. When he opened his eyes, he looked over at you and squeezed your hand. “They are trying to confuse us, turn us against each other.” You spoke, and in that moment, the dark haired woman shot in, grasping Wil’s face and kissing him. He immediately pulled back, wiping at his mouth and grunting. You snatched the dagger from Wil, jumping towards the woman, slashing the blade. What you didn’t notice was she had dodged behind Eretria. And when you heard a yelp, you shook your head. Wil gently took his dagger back from you, as you watched Eretria look at her palm that was starting to bleed. “I am so sorry!” You whimpered out to the woman, eyes getting watery. “Eretria, your hand.” Wil spoke softly, pulling you to his side as Amberle moved to her side and crouched down next to her. Her blood slowly started to float into the air, moving to the pedestal. The two guardians had stopped moving, watching their work. Though as Eretria asked what was happening to her, they spoke up softly in awe.

“She is a child… Of the Armageddon.” “My body is the vessel… My blood is the key.” Eretria said before standing and taking a single step to the pedestal, where she pressed her hand down hard and quickly. The sharp metal point went through her hand as she gave a cry in pain.

You all watched as her blood flowed down and into the base. Within moments a portal of red fire shot up from the ground. The mapping of red lines on Eretria’s arm disappeared and wind picked up. “It’s the bloodfire!” Amberle spoke up. “I need to get inside!” She then tried to go towards the portal. “We will not let you steal the power of the bloodfire!” The dark haired guardian yelled out. “She’s the one! Kill the bearer of the seed!” The other called out. Both going towards Amberle. Wil and you guided her behind some wooden benches. “Run for the flame. We’ll cover you.” Wil spoke, pointing to the portal. You nodded as Wil gave her a gentle push. “Now go!” “Hey, crazy lady!” Wil moved out from behind the bench and held his fist up. Blue glowed from his clenched fingers. He stepped forwards and yelled out in pain as the power of the stones disintegrated the pale haired one. The other yelled out in anger and pain.

“Go!” You yelled to her, motioning for her to run to the portal. With that you ran to Eretria. Amberle stopped at the edge, turning to look at Eretria who had tears in her eyes from pain and not knowing what would happen next. Both nodded to the other before Amberle turned back and stepped into the portal. With a scream, the only guardian left batted at Wil, knocking the stones from his hand. They came to a stop at the base of the pedestal near you and Eretria. “Wil!” You called out, worry in your voice as he dove for them. In the last moment he snatched them up and held them out, killing off the last guardian quickly. Eretria pulled her hand off the spike while looking at the portal. Her eyes fluttered before closing and she collapsed. Will called out for Amberle as the two of you watched the portal close, barely catching Eretria so she wouldn’t hit the ground full force. He grunted, holding his hand before shifting slightly. He called out your name before calling out for Amberle when he saw the portal had closed. When he turned and saw you, he was quick to move to your side. You hugged him tightly, burying your head in his shoulder for a moment before pulling back. “We have to get her out of there.” Wil spoke before he noticed Eretria was on the ground not moving. “Eretria.” He moved to her side and looked her over. When she didn’t move, he lightly touched her face. Her skin was cool to the touch, and a look of horror filled his face. When he touched her pulse point on her neck, there was a very faint thready beat there. “Wil, try the stones.” You said, tears in your voice as you rested your hand on his shoulder. He looked up at you, uncertainty in his eyes. “What if it doesn’t work? They’ve only worked on demons.” There was so much emotion in his voice. “If you don’t try, you don’t know if they will work on more than just demons.” You said, sliding your arms around his neck and chest, holding him tightly from behind. “Please.” He nodded, sniffing as he wiped at his face quickly before looking at the stones in his fist. They glimmered slightly and he took a deep breath. Long fingers curled around them and when he closed his eyes, focusing hard and using the strength of you against him, Wil felt the magic flowing. The glowing became brighter, he opened his eyes and put his closed fist over her heart. She shot up, gasping for breath and panicking slightly. Both you and Wil reached out and held onto her. “Wil, what happened?” She asked, her voice uneven as she glanced around, holding her bloody hand.
