Master Of None

The wall was full of so many people. Walker swore that every time he turned around he saw someone he didn't recognize or someone he hadn't expected to see. "Brother, I have check in with the commanders, they wish to start an attack to bait the demon army here soon." Onyx had been moving along here and there to keep a constant communication going. Walker had been too busy to touch base recently.

"That's so soon…but we have a lot of force here and Barry is nearly ready." Walker didn't want to hesitate. He knew that a lot of the soldiers that were here would be looking toward him for inspiration.

​ The party was not full of people with the strongest skills. In all actuality, the party could be considered weak. But where they exceeded was mentality. They took their goals and desired to push through any situation and make something better happen. Walker alone was someone that constantly shocked others and convinced them to try a new path.

"Alright, I am ready to do this. Midnight is with the three wind dragons, right? I want her to be able to keep them from rushing in to battle. She has a strong set of skills that should keep them in check. They are older than her but will not be able to handle the intimidation of a true dragon champion." Onyx slithered off to communicate this to Midnight. He was sure that this would be a very important role for him.

"Good, I already know you will partner up with Alice next." Walker was sure that Onyx would pair up with Alice. The two had decent teamwork from their training. There was also the fact that Su would most likely be the shield for all the healers with any sort of calming skill. Alice was currently speaking to the small group of ten that had gathered at Walker's call.

The piles of arrows that Gil had set up were much better prepared than Walker expected. He could see strings connecting bundles of ten arrows each. There were more arrows than Walker could count but he was sure that it was nearly the entire collection of fire and water elemental arrows that he had created. Enough to split an army for sure.

"Ignus, Current, I want you to be the main force that separates Wrath from the rest of the army. I know you can do it." Gil raised an eyebrow at this. He knew that Current and Ignus could definitely do it, but it was odd to hear Walker encouraging them.

"You don't need to ask me twice. I will live up to the bargain we have. Just ensure that there will be another feast after this battle." Current was glad to hear Walker's encouragement. He knew it was to keep everyone on the same page. A good leader had to do these seemingly pointless tasks.

"The moment I came here I became an opposing force. You do not even grasp how much more I will be able to do." Ignus huffed indignantly while he looked at the string of fire elemental arrows he was going to be carrying. He had been more than surprised by Gil's supply.

" Su, Remey!" Walker moved toad Su and Remey who were waiting for Barry to return. He had left to get his final preparations. "I will have you go with Alice and the healers. They will need more protection." Walker knew that Su would be the shield while Remey would be able to act as the muscle in front of her. There would be almost no one that could get anywhere near them.

"Fine by me, I can make sure that any demon that wants to come here and hurt people is broken down. But what about the villagers and other innocent people? How should I handle them?" Remey was concerned that she would hurt someone she shouldn't

"That's what the healers are for. They will calm them with their skills and bring them back while I defend." Su had cleaned and prepared the twin shields for this. She wanted to use the earth dwelling shield but it would not work as well. The number of attackers could cast a wide net of attacks. The wider defensive area of the twin shields would more than protect them.

"That means after we help those people I can use my potions," Remey smirked. She had not had a proper chance to use the exploding potions that she and Trish had made. She had been waiting.

"I won't stop you but make sure that the area is safe." Walker shook his head. He wondered if explosions and fighting were all Remey cared about sometimes.

"I seem to be ready, I don't want to handle this alone though, be ready to jump in if anything goes wrong." Barry was sure that he would win the fight. But he wanted Walker there after. Walker was a wildcard. Someone who came up with strange and incredible solutions to the problems at hand. Whatever skills that Walker might use could help Barry return to his senses.

"I wouldn't leave you out there alone. After Mordant leaves you to beat Wrath, I will arrive in the air behind you. Mordant, Ignus, and Current are separating every soldier from wrath in a few moments. Ventus is communicating to let everyone know what will happen. Then the healers and soldiers will come behind me." This made Barry relax a little. His face hardened.

"Then we leave now. No more waiting. Cause a lot of noise and bring those demons my way." His words were louder than he had meant, but soon there were shouts from every soldier. They felt the very same as Barry. It was time to make a move.

"Gil, send them off!' Walker shouted out and watched as Ignus and Current jumped in to the air to change in to their full dragon forms. The arrows trailing in groups behind them were smaller and smaller as they rose in the air.

"Mordant, let's get ready." without a sound, Mordant had shown himself again. He is sure that he would be able to sneak Barry over to the main battle field as soon as Ventus gave the notice.

In the air, Ventus was watching the movements carefully. She saw the large earthen pillars rising as Terron and his dragonkin moved to create obstacles. The dragonkin warriors were even hiding themselves under the soil to camouflage and ambush the demons when they attacked. It was a wise choice of battle that only the earth dragons used.

She was just as high in the air as Current and Ignus. They were being very careful of whatever skill that wrath had. The army that had been marching toward them was close enough that a single small attack would cause them to rush toward the walls. It was the perfect time.

Current dropped the strong of arrow bundles. They fell slowly in the air while Ignus dropped his as well. They had made it so that they would intersect around Wrath the largest demon in the army.

There was a silence in the air as everything fell. Ventus knew what was coming because she could see everything the clearest. The mana that Ignus and Current had forced in to the arrows was not small. Their control and storage of elemental mana was the only reason they could pull off such a feat. if anyone else had tried they would be unable to infuse the many arrows with their mana.

When the sound of breaking and explosions shook the air, Ventus saw a blossoming of red and blue. The fire arrows caused a large fireball to push many of the demon soldiers backwards. The watery mist that burst out from the water elemental arrows caused snow to burst around them in a wave of blizzard. Both had forced the demons near Wrath away. But what caused even more chaos were the spikes of shadow popping up around the soldiers.

Mordant had acted as well bringing Barry closer to wrath, his next move was to separate the closer soldier to Wrath away from the main battle. It was easy for him since shadows were just part of his body.

There was an immediate reaction from the soldiers that had not been knocked unconscious or even defeated in the singular attack. Their anger seemed to expand many times causing them to sprint towards the walls which had many roars of challenge. The loudest roar came from Midnight and Ventus's three children. They had followed Midnight's call to attract battles right away.

The appearance of Walker moving through the air was the signal that Ventus needed to communicate what she was seeing currently. The rest of the soldiers would be slowly moving and waiting for the demons to come. Until they received Ventus's signal, they would not push past their frozen trap filled lines. The two ice dragons had ensured that the ground was perfectly covered close to the wall. Their defenses were perfect to stop the incoming army that had been split in two.
