The yellow dotted serpent threw Ruby into a space shield. She was locked inside. Trying to break the shield with her petals, it cracked, but won’t open. Trying again her petals shot out at the shield, again it cracked, with no opening. Someone or something was keeping her trapped in there. “Don’t let her escape,” said Samantha, still mind talking with the poison master. "This time we got her." Eric slashed the yellow dotted serpent in half. Leaving it’s body wriggling on the ground. Trying to break the shield from the outside, Eric pounded. It started to break, but it won’t budge any more than that. Suddenly Eric could hear chanting coming from somewhere. Looking around he scanned the area. Focusing his ears on the voice, he followed with his eyes. Then, he suddenly found the person. “Ruby, someone is casting this shield. I have to take down that person to get rid of this space shield.” Ruby nodded. “I will be right back,” said Eric. He looked at her with care. “Take care,” said
“Sh*t,” exclaimed Ruby. She summoned out her fifth spiritual power, the tortoise. “Absolute defense!” Her turtle’s shell emerged and protected her from the serpent’s deadly poison. Shielding herself from the toxic spray. Everything was covered in a mist of thick pink fog. “RUBY!” shouted Eric. He pounded on the shield. Kevin and the rest of the group was also banging on the shield. “Can you hear us my lady!” shouted Tabitha. She was floating above Eric. “How can this be?” asked Eric. “Eric, did you break the spell?” asked Theo. “Yes. Yes, I did.” “Wait! Hold up. Hold up!” said Tabitha. “Come on, break!” grunted Eric. “Why won’t it budge?” asked Kevin. “Back up, back up!” ushered Tabitha. “What is it?” asked Eric. “Who’s this?” asked Kevin. “I’m the Fairy Princess’s fairy,” said Tabitha. “What’s wrong?” asked Eric. “You will never break it in your lifetime, if my guess is right.” “What!” “What does that mean?” asked Zachery. “How is it not breakable?” asked John. “What
“Ruby? Ruby, Are you hurt?” asked Samantha. She was smiling wickedly on the inside. Ruby smacked her hand away and pulled the arrow out of her heart and pierced it into Samantha’s heart.Samantha was screaming as she stabbed. “Samantha!” shouted Duke Wild. Ruby pushed Samantha backward and she fell on the ground with a thud.“How dare you!" shouted Duke Wild. "She was just worrying about you. How dare you hurt my granddaughter!” Ruby was furious. Her eyes was glaring at him with anger. Her aura was spitting out bloody murder. "You-" “Don’t touch her! She’s my princess consort!” shouted Eric. “How dare you! She tries to murder my granddaughter in front of me and everyone else and you dare protect her!” "I will protect her. She's my wife." Ruby smiled at Eric. She was full of warmth by the kindness of her husband's protectiveness. "Step aside." "Never."“And what about you? You tried to murder me. You haven’t even paid for your sins yet!” shouted Ruby, in a fiery voice.“You
“Lies! How could I use such a spelling? If it’s a secret to them, why would they teach me? You’re lying!” shouted Samantha. She was slowly feeling the pain of the bloodthirst.“I can answer that,” said the tribe leader of the Nomad. “Tribe leader,” said Ruby. She bowed in respect to him.“What are you doing here?” asked Eric.“I felt the bloodthirst being used. So, I teleported here," answered the Trible Leader. He was looking at Samantha.Samantha didn’t say anything. She couldn’t believe that they had found her. She’s been caught. She must continue to lie or else they would all know this is all her doing. The assassination and the attempt to poison Ruby. “You stole our secret book for this evil purposes? Humph! Karma have its way with those who are wicked!” exclaimed the tribe leader.“Lies! All lies!” shouted Samantha.“How could it be a lie?” asked Ruby, she was smiling at Samantha.“Prove it,” said Samantha, glaring at Ruby.“Sure. Look at your hands.”Samantha stared at her han
“You will stay in the darkest dungeon. Engulfing in your own madness,” said Eric. Samantha was screaming and wailing as the guards took her away. “Make sure she suffers miserable for the rest of her life,” said Eric. “Master, please! She’s my granddaughter," said Duke Henry. “And what about Ruby? She’s your best friend’s granddaughter!” exclaimed Theo. “What does she have to do with my bloodline?” “Because she’s also part of your Vermilion Bird Clan. How can you be so selfish?” “She was expelled years ago. She no longer belongs to my clan." “There's no need to be in a greedy clan. I wouldn’t want to taint my reputation with a clan like yours,” said Ruby. “That’s right. Ruby maybe half of the Vermilion Bird Clan, but she is also half-blood of the Green Tortoise Clan as well,” said Duke Elon. “Dad? You came back?” asked Kevin. Duke Elon nodded. “What do you mean?” asked Eric. Duke Elon pulled out of his hand a green gemstone. It glowed in the presence of Ruby. “The gem
“Oh, that would explain why you’re so spoiled.”Everyone laughed. “Humph. I shall take my leave now,” said Duke Henry. “Don’t think that you are getting away unscratched,” said Eric. He looked at Duke Wild with resentment. “What do you mean? My granddaughter is paying for her crimes already.” “I meant your crime. A word of apology is not enough for attempting to murder my wife.” Duke Henry chuckled and said, “Well, I’m sure it’s just a misunderstand-“ “You will have to answer for your own crime,” said Theo. He looked at his student. He spoke to him coldly like he always does. “Why are you always defending them?” “Who?” “Ethan.” “What about him?” “You always treated him different than me.” “It’s because he was my favorite student.” Duke Wild frowned. Trying not to show his rage of jealousy he hid it between his brows. “Of course, he is.” “You won’t get away for trying to kill me, nor stealing my grandfather’s spiritual power,” said Ruby. “Fine! Do what you must then!” ex
Ruby kissed him. After she was done kissing him, she said, “I know.”“I always thought to myself why is it that you never gave up on me. Why is it that even after I took you by force you never blamed me… I try to think of all the reasoning. However only one came to my mind.”“It’s because I love you.”“What?”“I love you.”“Say it again.”“I love you, Eric.Eric was smiling and laughing sweetly, he hugged her tightly in his chest.“I knew it.”“How long have you known?”“I don’t know. I guess I always have.”“Oh.” "Ruby, I have always love you." “I know, and I love you too.” “No. I mean I have never stopped loving you.”“You mean-”“Yes. Even after all these years.”Ruby tilted her head at him. He caresses her face and said, "Ruby, you should know I never stopped thinking about you.”“But how? You said I caused you too much headache.”“Well, maybe because every time I thought of you it makes my heart ache and sorrow when you’re hurt. I never understood why, but now I do.”“But I th
“So, you mean you built that place for me?”“Yes.”“So, you were already planning to take care of me?”“Yes. I hire those three to help you heal your broken limbs… However…”“What is it?”"I wasn't planning to marry Samantha.""Lies.""Honestly.""Then... Why did you propose to her.""I did it so she wouldn't know that I had feelings for you.""Feelings for me?""Yes. As you see, my feelings for you started to grow and it started to show. Like a lot.""Oh.""Just so you know, I was hoping that somewhere along the line I get injured and become cripple." Eric scooted closer to her. "I was hoping she find me unmarriable and just leave me alone.""Hmmm. Interesting plan you got there."“Well, I did plan to keep you forever.”“You mean…”“Yes, it means you would stay with me.”“Oh, was I now?”“You were so beautiful, smart, talented, and gifted. I couldn’t bear to part with you. I couldn’t bear to lose you to another man. The thought of being separated from you for the rest of my life was
“Now, we got to think of a name for him.” “Right now?” “Yes. Better now than later.” “Well, we got a week left.” “What about the name Aaron Thompson?” “Aaron?” “Yes. I feel like he’s our little miracle.” “Alright. I like that name.” Just as she finished saying her words her stomach felt sharp pain. She grunted in pain. “Ouch. Eric, Eric, something is wrong.” “What-What’s wrong?” “I don’t know.” “What are you feeling?” “I don’t know. My stomach is squeezing tightly together.” “What? What does that mean?” “Fairy Princess is going to have the baby.” “WHAT!” exclaimed Eric. He was panicking. “Ouch, it hurts so badly.” “Hold on, Fairy Princess.” “You’re having contractions? Now?” questioned Eric with worries in his voice. He looked around as they were far away from the palace. “Eric, I think the baby is coming,” grunted Ruby. “Sh*t,” said Eric. “Come on. Let me carry you back.” He lifted her in his arms and ran towards their room. “Fairy Princess, Fairy Princess, hold o
It was early morning, and they took a stroll by the lake. “Eric?” questioned Ruby. “Yeah,” answered Eric. “Um, what of Samantha?”“Her, don’t you worry. She’s wallowing in her own madness.” “Oh. Well, I hope never to see her again.”“No. You won’t see her anymore.” Eric smiled at her. “Good. I want her to be in the same darkness she put me through. Even as a child she put me made me suffer through so much.” Ruby clenched her fists tightly.“I will help you wash away all of those bad memories with all of my love. I have so much more love to give you and our child.”"I know.""Know that I will protect your, our child, and our family." Ruby nodded. “Oh. By the way, what happened to Henry?”“He’s locked up in the cell. The emperor was so angry at him that he chopped off all his limbs. Now he’s just a body, awaiting death. I also gave him the hot and cold poison,” answered Eric. “And I cut off his tongue, so he can’t curse us.” “Oh. Well, that’s good. I want him to suffer for what h
They all started walking back to the palace when all of a sudden Ruby started feeling lightheaded. She lost vision for a few seconds and collapsed.Eric, seeing her, caught her in his arms. “Ruby? Ruby?”“What’s wrong?” asked Empress Dowager.Ruby shook her head and said, “I’m fine. I’m just exhausted.”“Are you sure?” asked Eric.“Ruby are you positive child?” asked Empress Dowager.“Yes. I’m quite positive,” answered Ruby.As they all got back to the palace, the Emperor shouted, “Let’s have a feast tonight! Everyone from the young to old, rich to the poor. Come join us. Let’s all celebrate!”That night everyone from all over the Dragon Empire came to join the party.Ruby sat next to Eric. Eric held her hands in his. He kissed her hand. She smiled sweetly at him.“What do you feel like eating?”“I don’t know.”“What about fish?”One of the maid brought over a steam fish.Ruby smelling the fish started to gag. She had the feeling of wanting to throw up.“Ruby? What’s wrong?” asked Eri
The sky started to clear. The dark clouds disappeared, and it became bright again. The sun came through the clouds shining brightly at them.They both sigh as Chaos is defeated.“What’s that noise?” asked Ruby.“Yeah. It’s so loud,” said Eric.There were loud cheers and applause as they took down the destruction of earth.“YESSSSSSS!” screamed Theo.“Well done, my boy!” shouted the Emperor.“That’s my grandson and goddaughter!” exclaimed Empress Dowager. “I mean she’s my granddaughter-in-law.”“They did it! They did it!” shouted Kevin.“Whoo-hoot!” shouted Zachery.John applauded loudly.They both landed on the ground and their spiritual powers disappeared behind them.“So, the golden dragon and the phoenix won Chaos and brought another era of peace on earth,” said the Emperor.Ruby and Eric nodded.Everyone was cheering and hugging them.“Sister-in-law,” said Elijah.“Eric,” said Adian.Both of them hugged them as well.Crackle. Crackle. Something was emerging from the wall. The blac
Everyone looked into the sky and saw a huge cloud of black mist. It’s eyes was white like the horrendous beasts.“It’s Chaos,” stuttered William.“How are we doing on that black hole?” asked the Emperor.“We’re nearly there. I nearly got it,” said William.“Hold yourself steady and closed that portal so that Eric and Ruby could focus on Chaos.”“Yes, your majesty.”Eric and Ruby both jumped up into the sky.Eric changed, “Come forth my Golden Dragon.”Out of the sky came a humongous golden dragon, shining brightly in the sky. His whole body was covered in gold. His claws was enormous, and his teeth was sharp and glistering.“Wow,” exclaimed Ruby.“Yeah. I know right. This thing took me a few years to master.”“Oh. Same with my phoenix.”“Now, let’s take down this Chaos, shall we?”Ruby nodded.Chaos summoned out a wrath of black clouds and started to shoot it at them.“Dodge it,” said Ruby. Her phoenix spiral passed the black clouds. “One shot,” shouted Ruby. Her phoenix shot out a hy
Many people from the capital who saw her was crying at the raw power Ruby was wielding. Tears were dripping down their faces as they admired the beauty she displayed. Some were weeping at her elegance. Some choked on their spit as they gulped at her goddess appearance. Some were admiring Ruby’s magic and her phoenix’s spiritual power. “Fairy Princess!” shouted Tabitha. “Go RUBY!” shouted Duke Slow. “You can do it!” shouted Empress Dowager. “That’s my woman,” smiled Eric. “The phoenix! The phoenix’s power lives!” shouted Duke Leopard. Rupert also summoned his magic to help lift the forcefield faster. He chanted away hoping that he can aid in her assistance to take down the wild beast. Many of the wild beasts stop in their track as they know who was floating in front of them. Some who dares challenge her dived at her. “Take down!” said Ruby. She flew high up into the sky and came down whooshing through everything. As she glided down the wind blew massively around them. Trees
“No. No. Please, let me atone for the sins,” cried Eric.“Eric, I love you,” said Ruby.Theo’s eyes was full of tears as this scene reminds him of when Ethan died protecting him. “No! I will not let this happen again!” He ran over to Henry and smacked him hard across the face. He fell down onto the ground. Grunting in pain as he rubbed his cheeks from the hit.Eric, hearing the commotion, turned around. “Grandfather?”Theo pinned Samantha’s father down on the ground and smashed his face into the ground. “You open this right now, or I will kill you!” He pushed his face harder into the ground.“Ahh. Help father. He’s trying to suffocate me,” cried Samantha’s father.“You dare threaten my son!” shouted Henry.“Do it or I will make you suffer miserably before you die. You know I can!” exclaimed Theo.Samantha’s father, being the coward he is, started trembling. He nodded his head in agreement.Eric ran up to Henry. He kicked Henry hard in the stomach so that he coughed up blood. He lifted
Soon the people started forming a line. The women and children and elderly were separated into a pile and move to safety. The ones who could fight and defend took a weapon in their hand and stood in front of the capital’s gate. Duke Henry who was watching Ruby was trying to isolate her from Eric, so he could trap her with the beasts. He was going to watch her get annihilated by the beast. He was going to make sure that she dies miserably as she have ruined his life. FLASHBACK Last week she and Eric came to strip him of his title. They watched as he got kicked out of his own home. Because he once served with the previous Emperor, he didn’t have to go to jail, but was humiliated by living in a shabby home. His whole family had to move to a poor and broken town. He was placed as a normal citizen until his trial started. He was criticized for his wrongdoing. He was sat on every single day by those who walked past him. Some of them threw vegetables and rotten fruits at them. Some even t
NEXT FEW WEEKS“Prince Eric,” said Simon.“What is it?” asked Eric.“There are animals running rampant lately.”“What’s the cause?”“I-I...”“What’s wrong?”Kevin was running up to Eric. “Eric, there are some strange looking creatures running through the forest,” panted Kevin. “What kind of strange looking creatures?” questioned Eric.“They’re very horrendous looking. They don’t look like any of the normal animals we usual see.”“What?”“Chaos is near,” said William who walked in on them.“How long?” asked Eric.“Soon.”“That quick, huh,” said Kevin.“Are you two almost ready?” asked William, as he looked at Eric and Ruby.“Yes, we are,” said Ruby. She grabbed Eric’s hand and held it.“Then we must prepare for the worst.”They both nodded.“Report,” shouted Zachery.“What is it?” asked Eric.“There is a black hole emerging from the eastern border.”“What? What is it?”“We’re looking into it right now as we speak.” “When it appear?”“Half an hour ago.”“That would time it to when t
