Darz: I'll allow myself to resign to defeat, but only if Aphra shows me what I want to see.
ToS: What does he speak of?
Aphra: It is a skill I haven't used for a long time. In fact, few have ever seen it.
Darz: I will escape these bonds now if she doesn't!
Aphra: Then, I must. I call upon Dragon Skill!

Aphra stares at Darz as her eyes fade into a bright glow of light. A wind picks up, and it blows forward (from behind her to front). Then, several portals seem to rip into this plane. From them sprout forth a dragon for each element. Darz smirks as each dragon takes their turn striking at him. Bruised, battered, and willing to admit defeat, he faints from his injuries. One last word lingers forth from his lips.

Darz: I'll return...
Aphra: His words speak true. He did this for...many confusing reasons. He wanted so see my full potential.

The realm they are held in begins to shatter and break. Realizing that something bad is about to happen, the ToS pick up Aphra and make a break for it. As they approach the throne room again, a huge explosion ensues from where they battled with Darz. It is safe to assume something bad has occured.

[color=royal blue]Giles lunges at Ryu for, what he is begining to believe, will be the last time. Ryu lifts the DBoSf and swings it hard toward Giles. Giles is thrown back by the extreme heat and preasure of the attack, and falls broken and bleeding at the bottom of a valley. Ryu flies down and looks upon his broken body.

Ryu: You rely on your brother William, and it backfires. I rely on myself. Even if Bahamut and Avian are with me, it is only to ensure they know what goes on.
Giles: *bloodied cough* Ha! You'll never free your lovely elven woman!
Ryu: We'll see. Oh, wait. You won't, actually. I'll celebrate, however, when I see Tsukin`asu safe and Toricas broken and bleeding worse than you. *turning his back to Giles* Goodbye.
Giles: You...still...have much...to contend...wi-ith...

Giles dies there as Ryu looks over his shoulder. Ryu takes a deep breath as he calls his Golden Armor back. He looks at it to see it is fully repaired. He then throws his right hand forward and opens a portal. He walks through it and reappears next to Aphra and the Three of Soul, instantly knowing what Castus has done.

Ryu: He will be missed.[/color]
