Skyla's Retialation

Skyla pulled her glove off her hand.

"This is a ring passed down from my mother and given to her by my father who Had Rune as one of his subjects" She pointed the ring towards Curiner A blast of Red flire came from the ring aiming for the staff that Curnier Had in his hand. She pulled out her swords and crossed them ready to defend herself. Sileven Ice Earedeith.

The She called up water to flood him and drown him Nenya White Water. "May this wash your garments clean."

She called down a strong wind Blasting him with a Bolt of lightning in his back and she called a stronger blast of wind. Blowing him towards the window. Then she moved him and tossed him aginsat his dark throne engulfging it in flame as well.
**************************************************************


Rune Came against Skyla " Icee froze" She called up ice shiled around herself Rune moved towards Arathorn brandishing his Sword with the Red Ruby in its hilt. A strong silver blade.

"Do you want to know how i got this scar over my eyes I had sword fight with my dad and my brother and they cut a small slit at the side of my head. As well as my other side and in my stomach To the pain my brother said. In a sword fight true feelings come out when you act on instinct and have fight it you. He slashed me the first smaller Cuts hurt worst then the bigger ones. It drove me mad and then this power came over me."
 
The Shadow:

Arathorn parried several of Rune's blows, and attempted to return a few himself when he felt his body go numb. He could see the red ruby in Rune's word glowing, it's stone looked like an eye. Arathorn looked over at Curunir and saw upon his staff was red stone. When Rune thrusted, Arathorn was unable to block. The tip of the blade pierced through Arathorn's flesh with little difficulty. Run then knocked Arathorn to the ground.

Meanwhile Curunir focused his attention of Skyla, he began utter in strange tounge. Curunir raised his staff and pointed it towards skyla. From it a black shadow appeared. It began to take form, until It's shape was clear. Standing before Skyla and everyone else was a figure encased in thick obsidion armor. The figure wore a crown and wielding a mace. The room shook as the shadow stepped foward.

Curunir: Behold the Lord of Mordor and soon the Lord of Middle Earth!

The room began to shake and all inside felt a heavy weight and opression. Arathorn wounded raised his head to look upon the shadow. Fear fell upon him, a fear that he had never felt, infact it was so powerful he felt his breath stolen away.

Aulin stepped forth, he raised his staff and stood beside Skyla.

Aulin: Curunir you coward! You dare try summon him here! Such a feat is beyond you and for that you will pay dearly!

Already Curunir's face seemed to lose It's life, viens of shadow began to appear on his forehead and arms. The Shadow looked around the room.

Shadow: Hahahaha.. so the mighty Valar have sent their champion.. fools! Their efforts are vain.

Aulin: I have come on the behalf of my Father.. and the people of Middle Earth. You will release your grip on this realm before the end.

Shadow: Hahaha.. you know as well as I do.. that I own the keys to this world and that nothing can take them from my grasp! I shall overshadow all in this world and then I shall come for him myself!

The Shadow began to expand and it's power began to overshadow Curnir. His body became that like a puppet. Curunir charged Aulin and Skyla unleashing powerful shockwaves with his staff. Aulin surrounded both him and Skyla with a aura of white energy. The shockwaves glanced off the surface of the white bubble. The force however could still be felt. In meantime Rune collapsed, he felt he power trying to take hold of him, something stronger and fouler than the wizard.

Arathorn laided on ground grasping his wound, he could feel the shockwaves rippled the stone floor. As Curunir puppeted by The Shadow commenced more attacks, the frail body of Curunir began to grow ever more corrupted and it appeared as if he was aging rapidly.

It was sight to behold for Skyla and the force behiend Curunir was incredible. It was obvious that she would need aid in this fight, thankfully Aulin was by her side.
 
Skyla's fear parylis

Skyla gripped her enchanted sword and she felt a sense of Darkness and dread come over her and she saw Rune vulnerable but yet like a madman. She tried to not let her feelings for Rune influnce her. She couldn't afford any distractions right now.

She felt froze in fear as the Shadow approached her. She knew she needed to fight him but her power felt froze she couldn't even utter her magic words to even conjure her power up. Skyla shieiled her eyes against the darkness that surrounded her.

She knew she must find a way to Face this evil she couldn't let Shadow take over middle Earth it was her call as the last elf champion to protect her realm and Middle Earth even with Aulin at her side she felt powerless aginst the darkness and fear this shadow bought.
 
Wrath and Rune:

Aulin's magical shield had protected him and others from Curunir or the Shadow's ruthless attacks. It was now time for him to be on offensive. He turned to Skyla who seemed to be consumed by thought and fear.

Aulin turned back to Curunir, who's garments had turned from snowy white to corse grey. His face was overshadowed by darkness. Aulin raised hsi staff and began to speak in the ancient tounge. Suddenly the opressive fear that hung on to other members began to lift. Curunir began to hiss and the voice then turned to agony.

Aulin words seemed as powerful as his magic craft, Curunir seemed paralized at the moment. However another minion lurked near, Rune who seemed to have gone beyond madness now slinked towards Aulin and Skyla, gripping his sword. He snaked towards them like wraith, his footsteps silent and his breath cold. He was nearly upon them when he was grabbed from behiend and hurled to the ground. When Rune rolled unto his side and looked up he saw the tip of Anduril pointing at him.

Arathorn: I'm not finished with you yet..

Rune glared at Arathorn with shadow like eyes, he then arose and began to pace gripping his dark blade.

Rune: Your fate.. shall be the same as your people.. you shall be my slaves.. and when your no longer sutable.. you shall waste away in tomb.. never to be remembered!

Rune's voice had changed, it was sounded like the Shadow's voice. Arathorn took his stance. Rune made first contact, he swung wildly excuting blows with incredible power. His strength seemed doubled. But every once in while he would stop, his voice would return to normal and he would look as man lost, a man uncertain of who or what he was doing. Then Shadow would fall on him again and he would assail Arathorn again.

Arathorn did his best to stay on the offensive. He had no intent of harming Rune, for he was but a puppet, a pawn of the Dark Lord.

Meanwhile Aulin and Curunir were in heated conflict, they began exhagnnig words in ancient tounge, that formed things in natural such as fire, ice, water, and even light. Aulin was keeping Curunir busy with the basics, trying to make him overconfident. However the Shadow's malice was not to be toyed with, for Curunir unleashed deadly shockwave that knocked Aulin off his feet. Curunir then rushed to deal another blow from his staff on the now fallen Aulin. The only thing standing in his way was Skyla.

Skyla's Power and Strenth

Skyla shut her eyes and gathered her ancient power of her people and of the elements. She put her fear and sadness and negative emotions in the back of her mind. Her garments shimmered silver then white

She won't let Curunir take down anyone she felt her powers gather around her and replace her fear and anger with strength and light and she broke thru her paralysis.

She deflected his shockwave with a strong gust of wind and called some rocks towards her then puhsing them away and hitting curnir with them . Her primary power of wind gathered around here she took her sword and gripped it the blue diamond showed silver then clear in the hilt and she damaged his staff and used a strong gust of wind to toss the staff away.

"You will not hinder the return of the true king and of Good to middle Earth. You will not hurt Aulin."
 
Aid of the Valar:

Aulin arose, he took note of Skyla's power. It was impressive, she had done considerable damge to Curunir. But the Shadow within still remained strong, and though his staff be broken his power was not yet stemmed. Curunir was hurled liek rag doll towards Skyla who had brandished her blade. What Skyla didn't see was Curunir held a hidden blade beneath his sleeve. A foul weapon made by Morgul smiths to turn even the most pure hearts cold and black as the Shadow.

When Curunir was close enough to strike, he revealed the dark crafted knife and thrusted towards Skyla. Aulin who had arisen, watched as the two exchanged blows. Skyla's skill with an elven blade was impressive, but it was not enough. Curunir blasted Skyla with shockwave that knocked her to the ground. Curunir then prepared to stab her with the morgul blade, when he was hit by bolt of lightning. Curunir flew across the chamber into the wall.

Aulin then went to Skyla and helped her up.

Aulin: Your knowledge of ancient language is impressive.. but we shall need are combined strength (power) to defeat this foe.

Aulin then emitted another bolt of lightning from his staff. The bolt surged through Curunir causing him to remain weaken and cry out in pain. The Shadow began to lift, but not fully. Aulin now standing beside Skyla prepared for the final battle with the Shadow's puppet Curunir.

Joining of Two Great powers

Skyla took Aulin's outstretched hand as he helped her up. "Thank You Lord of the Valor" she dusted off her gown and cape and bowed. You are indeed a true champion of Good. Our combined strengths will surely save what is left of middle Earth.

I thought for a minute when i sensed that dark blade I would become in the shadow realm My tower my home was once the stronghold of Evil and i don't want to revisit that again after i had to use elf magic to cleanse it.

Aurin but truthfully his powers frighen me I don't recall ever feeling that frozen in battle that heavy Darkness and oppression.

I feel that both of us might only put a dent in his power i think we should focus on the Puppet both of them i don't want to kill Rune only if i have to we have to find a way to de possess him.Please help Rune I love him My Lord and i would do anything to save him for he is my true love. If he can be bought back i am sure he would be a great aid to us and the rest of middle Earth.

Skyla kneeled by Rune's Side and she took his cold hand in hers and squeezed it.

"Rune don't give into him your stronger them him fight his puppet Master ways. Your a warrior a Knight stand up join with me and Aulin. I know your secret Rune The Ruby in your hilt in the symbol of who you are your a Mage Your primary power is fire hence the Red Ruby. You can help us fight him. IT will take more then just one or two of us to fight him. Please come back to the light. You told me that with the Ruby you wore around your neck as a child You power is being twisted by the shadow fight it."

Rune tried to shake the darkness and the hold on him he couldn't the shadow's power was to strong.

The Retaking of the Citdal

Aulin listened to woes and concerns of Skyla. He could sense her torment and the shadow of fear that had gripped her.

Aulin: The shadow that controls the puppet is ancient.. it's power is strong.. few can withstand it.. and fewer still can challenge it. But take heart Lady of the Wood, for on this day we shall cleanse the darkness from this place. As for your Rune.. I will do what I can in my power to aid him.. (long as the shadow has not fully taken him.)

Aulin turned to Curunir who was stunned. He lifted his staff once more to prepare for another afront. Skyla had gone to Rune's side, who had fallen in combat against Arathorn. A great wound was upon his side, but as he laid there it grew black and began to fade. Arathorn braced himself with Anduril and took a deep breath. Sweat trickled down his brow.

Curunir who had been paralized suddenly came to life once more. His form had become even more corrupt. Black viens covered his whole body and his once white hair now was covered in cloud of shadow. Piercing red eyes glowed in the cloud. The Staff that had once been white as snow now turned to color of coal. Upon it was a scycle like edge making it look more like sycth than a staff.

Aulin: Come Lady Skyla.. the Shadow has regained It's strength!

Aulin raised his staff and released a bright light in chamber. The Shadow seemed unhindered by it, he rushed with a almost supernatural speed towards Aulin and Skyla. Aulin parried the blow and exchanged several in return. The Shadow began releasing shockwaves and dark matter that acted like fire only more potiant. Some of the flames reached Arathorn, they began to burn his cloak. Arathorn quickly removed his ranger like hood. The fire consumed the garments with incredible speed.

Arathorn quickly turned to see Rune arisen and rushing towards him. His eyes burned in likeness of the wizard. Arathorn countered the blow just in time. He could feel his head become heavy as if a spell had been cast upon him. Suddenly Rune's sword was ablaze. The heat caused Arathorn to break from lock up and back away. Rune swung his blade in ornate fashion, the flames hissed and leapt into air. Arathorn parried and coughed as he breathed in the fumes. Arathorn was knocked back against the wall. Rune proccedded to grab him by neck and raised him up with one hand while with other he prepared to strike with the burning blade.

Arathorn felt his air being cut off both by Rune's hand and the fumes of blade. He looked into the deathly eyes of his foe. He then gripping Aduril with one hand began to speak in ancient quenya tounge, the language of his people. Anduril began to light up with hew of blue. The light blinded Rune and caused him to loosen his gripe. Arathorn swung Anduril, hewing into Rune's neck. Rune dropped at once, causing Arathorn to fall as well. The wound flickered brightly against Rune's skin. Arathorn arose and stood over Rune who was gripping the wound in agony.

Arathorn: Forgive me my friend.. but you gave me no other choice. May the light of Numeneor cleanse you...

For the moment Rune was paralized, the combined power of Anduril and ancient tounge seemed to have subdued him.

[Alternate: Rune suddenly rose and began to attack Arathorn wildy. All sense and reason seemed to have left him, all that appeared to remain was madness.]

Skyla's Realization and Heartbreak

"Yes My Lord Aulin I will return to fight" Skyla Stood up and took her place at Aulin's side Why Rune was subdued. She reached into Rune's mind hesitant to what she would find there. There was no trace of her Rune there if it was it was just a faint glimmer of the man he was. Skyla latched onto that and tried to reach him.

Rune stop these people are your freinds let Go of the Shadow that has taken you.
 Rune shot fire at her Skyla deflected it with a small gust of wind and it died harmlessly. She rolled into a crouch holding out her glowing blue twin blades. Which started to glow Silver and Blue as Skyla called her power to her and Channeled it thru her blades. "Do not make me hurt you Rune I don't want to. Arathorn don't kill him"

Her Blue eyes glistened with tears.Was her Rune still there. The Rune she loved and played with and fell for in her teen elf years. The good powerful strong Red Mage she knew. She sent a cool breeze to move the fumes out of the chamber and she called a storm of wind and snow and freezing Rain to cool the ashes to try to soothe the Remaining Fires.

She suddenly felt heavy and weakened with her heartbreak and the realization the man she came to love was no more. Twisted by the Shadow. She almost felt part of her was gone with him, That she might not be able to win this fight and have her true love back. She might have to choose between his life and her legacy as Elf protector of her uncle's land Mirkwood.
