Setting
She looks over at Vargas, her face turning slightly red realizing that her curiosity was only serving to delay them. Her hands held behind her back as she kicks at the ground ashamedly.
"A-ah, right, some other time then," she squeaks. "If a lift is still required, should it be a large creature then?"
As the group followed the fire warrior, they contemplated on the God Army and their numbers. Of course, that squad was just a welcoming party, to put it bluntly. Whatever remained of this Army must still be massive. They weren't sure on the true nature of these angels - they were familiar with the common messager of the gods - but these beings are more winged fanatics than holy. They may just be like regular humans, but with wings, and decided to worship the Fallen Gods in the ancient times. Of course, they weren't that much of a challenge in small numbers, but they still had swords. Against a bigger number, they could actually be tough.
Max would get out a screwdriver and start adjusting his mechanical arm. It would be wise not to go for the entire Army at once; a few squadrons at a time, they could actually wipe out the Army, if they were lucky. Take out the followers to get to the Gods. This might actually become more interesting then they thought.
"Eze would love that plan...figures two minds would think alike. Of course, for the opinion about the Gods and angels. The only difference between a human and a angel is merely in appearance and a bit in power. They have been proven to be decent enough at fighting a regular soldier. However as for the Gods. They come in many different personalities. Cardes, The Malevolant for example has done absolutely nothing good. He fits his name well, he is a harbinger of death. Right now he is sealed away in Palyma. Legend says that four heroes faced against him and against all odds, they managed to imprisson him but rescue their friend who was also sealed with him. The seal has been weakening so it's our job to kill him before he gets his full powers." Selena added.
The two sisters began to pack their items for the journey ahead of them. To work with the heroes of Grand Gaia was an honor.
With this she walks oout into an open space, her arms crossed, her tail swaying. She takes a moment, seemingly taking a moment to breathe, then unfolds all her arms, and then lays out onto the ground onto them. Within moments her limbs and body begins to stretch out greatly, her cape-like flaps connecting to her arms like wings, her tail elongating and obtaining a feathery tip, her antennae rolling back and curving like horns, and her body overall multiplying in size with every second. Before long, she resembled something fro akin to a great dragon, or wyvern, sans its more ferocious qualities, but rather almost divine in her snow white sheen. She had compensated perhaps too well, as she was more than large enough to carry them all.
Max would make himself comfortable on the middle-back of Owru, his overall mass being somewhat like a condensed 10 ton weight, Jack would sit on the beginning of the neck, Adam would sit just behind Max and Fancy would straddle the tail. Since the latter weighed as much as a piece of paper, Owru would barely feel any weight on her tail.
Selena decided to sit by the neck while Valfiel and Elyzia both sat on the tail. "This...is actually our first time flying. Chances are though we will encounter very little resistance though, but perhaps the view will be gorgeous in the sky." Selena added as she carefully held onto Orwu's neck.
The two sisters decided to make this journey a bit more pleasant. Elyzia got her guitar and Valfiel cleared her throat. "If no one minds, we can sing and play some music... Elyzia spoke as she tuned her musical instrument.
"Oh, do feel free to perform," Owru says casually, not at all winded by her flight. "I hope the motion will not be of any burden."
They were at first taken back by the initial smoothness of the take-off, minus the gust of air, and the lack of air resistance from their otherwise near supersonic speed. As they sped towards the tower, Jack would begin to play an upbeat melody on his banjo. The rest would cling on to wherever they sat on the wyvern for dear life, still confused by the lack of resistance.
As the sisters readied their instruments, Vargas eagerly awaited for the music which would be better than the howling wind while Selena looked out in the distance to watch the land from far above. The marshlands, snow capped hills, the mountains...it was all so beautiful from up here.
Soon the two sisters joined with Jack in an upbeat tune, Elyzia strumming on the strings energeticly while Valfiel added her voice to sing her heart out.
"Oh! Wonderful journey! Wonderful journey! Heres the tale of adventure!
Oh! Sailing through the skies! Sailing through the heavens! On the road to adventure!
Oh! Fighting together! Fighting with heroes! Fighting with cartoons! All on the path of adventure!
Alas! Our journey has begun! A brand new journey this will be! Rejoyce! Rejoyce! For this is a tale of adventure!"
This was more of a bards poet than a song, but it made for some catchy music.
Owru glances back for a moment to listen to them playing, while still watching ahead. It is a boon to having three eyes. She had never considered herself to be musically inclined, or talented even remotely in that regard, but even then... she found herself to liken to melody... it certainly beat the heck out of silence for certain.
She then glances as the world below, the changes of scenery, the varieties of flora and fauna, the structure it held and the colors... oh the colors. The world outside the veil was so much different, more real in ways, more tangible, ordered, less chaotic and unforgiving in its nature. This... peacefulness. Even in a world of strife, this place was far more welcoming than the edge... it was... wonderful.
Everything is wonderful on this side.
It was uncertain to the Chosen Few how he did not fall off until the sudden realisation crept up on them that they were feeling no air resistance whatsoever. They also noticed that, while still flying at an alarming speed, Owru was not flapping her wings. As always, Owru remained a mystery wrapped in an enigma. Wherever she came from, likely from near the Edge, the laws of physics were obviously completely different, if not non-existent.
"Looks like they are ready for us. Pack up the instruments everyone, we are about to engage the enemy." Selena called out to the others and after finishing their song, the sisters put away their musical instrument. "Yeah! I am so fired up! Next time Herobrine let's hear your music!" Valfiel called out as she got ready.
Vargas sat up and stood with his sword drawn.
Elsewhere a figure had also made his way into the tower. More stealthy are his methods, through a rip within time and space, a small jester-like being with a strange puppet-like mask with three eye-holes. Subtle, so much so that... the rift closes prematurely, snagging his ragged cloth before he can fully exit, causing him to tumble into a roll and against the tower wall in a most peculiar position. The clownish creature snaps back upright and flees, cowering into a corner, pin spots of eyes deep within darting about in desynchronized directions. The strange clown finds he has drawn no attention, that the guardians of this place have far more pressing issues to attend to.
"Curiouser and curioser," the being mutters in a warped high pitch voice, opting to sneak behind anything and everything as he follows one of the guardians with a presence so unimpressive that he may as well be a mouse an ever so slight jingle with his every step. He then peers out from behind a doorway, watching a rather unusual band of misfits making their grandiose entrance. "And curiouser still."
"Toons of the world, unite!"
"Let loose the pugs of war!"
"Lay down your weapons and no one'll get hurt!"
Jack would run up the dragon's neck and leap from it's head, the banjo still in his hands. He would slam the base of the banjo on a demon's head, stunning it, and would disorientate it further by kicking it somewhere in the pelvic regions.
Fancy would charge at another monster and slash at it diagonal-down. Adam would attempt to behead another with a sideways slash. Finally, Max would attempt an uppercut on a demon which would catapult it through one of the large windows.
Selena sighed as she watched her ally go into the thick of the enemy. "To answer your questions Rosa, Herobrine is a demon that absorbs fallen demons to gain more power. He is also a jerk that plays tricks on people and makes them relive things they don't want..." She glared at Herobrine through her entire explanation before turning to face the new personality that replaced Orwu. "Great to meet you, however let us clear the tower before we know your name." She nodded as he jumped off the dragon and landed in the massive empty clearing Vargas had made to watch his back.
The two sisters both decided to join with the toons leaving the more dangerious battle to the heroes. Witch their scythes in hand(and musical instruments tucked away) they assisted the toons as the monsters began to swarm.
The monsters and demons soon poured from all direction, some flying ones even swooping through windows. They were hell Henry on defending the tower.
Rosa jumped off the dragon and landed many meters away from Herobrine (because she is afraid of him) "I'll just be over here" Rosa stated while beginning to sit down.
"No need to be afraid of me, I only pick on people who can fight back" Herobrine gave Rosa a comforting smile. "Oh and hold onto this for me please" Herobrine took off his hoodie and threw it to Rosa.
"Oh... umm ok" Rosa said quietly as she caught Herobrine's hoodie.
Herobrine charged into Battle attacking every single demon that came into his view.
With that she began to bound around the field, somewhat more showy than her normal performance of support. Eyes squinted, she stands up on her legs and folds both her lower arms, goading the guardians of the temple into attacking her, before boxing each of them with her upper arms. Despite her light weight, the strikes carry a powerful force, hurling them through the air.
"I can see why Laadan likes being big, you feel unstoppable," she exclaims, cracking into laughter, cut short as she gets thwacked on the back of the head by a demon. In response the draws back her neck thwacking the demon back. She then holds out her arms and shakes her head. "Well, almost! Ha ha! Ow. Who else wants to play!?"
"Are we gonna stay here and fend of these demons forever or are we heading up?" yelled Adam within the crowd of headless demons.
A guardian was catapulted into a flying demon by Max, knocking them both down. "Make way!" Max said, carving a path to the nearest staircase with force the cave trolls must have used carving the mountains of the primal worlds. "We've got somewhere to go!"
The two sisters pushed with the toons. Carefully cutting them down with their scythes.
Hunters of monsters and demons continued to assault them still.
