The Fourth Dimension - Tombs of Stone
Kurapik, her dragon knights and Eilie with her Dark Alliance trudge through a heavy forest.
Kurapik: Why are we in this place? We were with Kakurine one instant and then we are here! That dark cloud.............
Eilie:yes that dark cloud! we are in another dimension and I think Ferciol is behind this.
Ky, Samara and Nina Mikain look around them.
These forest is so thick!!! We cant find the gateway through this!
Kurapik ( smiling):we have our dragons, you can all ride with us.
Ky, Eilie, Samara and Nina Mikain ride with Kurapik and the dragon knights and they fly over the thick forest. They fly for a long time until the forest suddenly ends and they reach a town. As Dark Alliance and Dragon Knights walk around the town, they notice something strange...
everyone is a statue! Statues everywhere!
No moving life form could be seen anywhere.
Until............batlike creatures attack them!!!
Dragon Knights and Dark Alliance ready to defend themselves!
Kurapik: Get ready! Attack!!!!
As Dark Alliance and Dragon Knights run, the Bat-like creatures try to pick each one off but the GSG's are too fast and a bloody struggle continues........Some of the GSG's grab them and hit them on the ground, using all their might and the Dragons keep up the fight, blowing fire till even their enemies wings are on fire!
Screams are heard as the Dragon Knights and Dark Alliance watch their enemies retreat.
Then out of nowhere, The Imperial Army appears.
Yasunari: ( brushing off d dirt) I hate bats!!!!!!!
Cyrence: Ugh! Those are the ugliest creatures I had to fight! Well, Yasunari....its nice to see you here! We thought we were the only ones here!
Yasunari: We saw the bats attack and we fought them off from the other side! They were disgusting! (shudders)
Joshua Levenheit: Is everyone ok? I was wondering what turned these people into statues..
Kurapik: Lets move out. Something tells me we have to keep moving!
Eilie: Right. Lets go!
Samara: This place creeps me out (opens her third eye)- These people arent dead.........actually they're just sleeping!
Ky: Lets get outta here!
Ankoku: Just let me get my hands on that Ferciol! All he does is throw us into dis dimension! That coward!!
They move quickly to the edge of the town and then Kurapik signals for them to stop. Eilie looks concerned.
Eilie:Someone is watching us!
Samara: She's here!!!!
Everyone looks around.
Ky: Where? I dont see her!
Samara: She has the power to be invisible!!! Run!!
Kurapik calls her dragons and everyone starts to fly off hoping to reach a safe place.
All of a sudden, an icy cold hand touches Kurapik's shoulder and in an instant.....she is frozen!
She cannot move...........She and her dragon fall to earth...........they remain immobile.............as stone!!
Joshua: Noooo! Not our Headmistress Kurapik!!!
Eilie: We dont know what we are fighting with, we have to leave her! Go!!!!!!!
Everyone flies off higher and higher into the dark sky.
Dragon Knights mourn.......what will happen to Kurapik?
As they fly off, a being looks up, watching them go. It spreads its bat wings and sighs.
"They will be back for their leader! I'll see to that!" Her head, filled with moving snakes, nods knowingly.
