"Once her heart is completely consumed with evil and darkness she will go on a killing spree. She will continue until she is stooped and killed..." He looked up at Nick then looked back at his hands.  

[Nick_austin90]

"Did it not say how she can be stopped? A hint or anything?" I inquired.  

[Rin128563]

"A riddle was left: To stop this demon show what it needs. The other half must come to it. Show it give it what it's missing. Toghter they're souls will entwine and it's pure heart will finally show." He looked up at the ceiling, "We all can't really understand what it means...."  

[Nick_austin90]

"I don't have a clue myself but it's important that we find Scarlet first. If we can't find her then we can do nothing," I said.  

[Rin128563]

"Yes that is very true. I cannot go myself for i am too old," He sighed and looked up at Nick. "If you can do me the favor....please find her and bring her back. Oh and don't worry," He pulled out a veil that contained a green liquid. "If you are able to make her drink this then she will be knocked unconcious. Then you would be albe to bring her back." He handed it to Nick and gave a weak smile.

"You know what, the 'if' you used really showed how much of a chance a human like me have against a magical elf," I chuckled at the poor joke. Then I sighed. "It's us again, Kani, Suki. This time, we don't have Scarlet. It's her that we have to go against," I said and I sighed again. Things weren't looking pretty.  

[Rin128563]

"Well if you hurry you might catch up to her before she has been completely consumed. If that is so then you might have a chance a good chance of getting her back." Alec said and pushed them along and out the door.  

[Nick_austin90]

Worry not Alec...I shall guide him...

"Guardian! Haven't heard from you in a while," I exclaimed as a smile grew on my face.

I know but I'm afraid we have no time for idle chatter...Scarlet is fast leaving the forest and right now she is searching her way out...

"Okay, I'll just go get my revolver and crossbow," I said seriously.

Wait, you must have a sword too...

"What? Why? And where can I get one? I've never had any," said.  

[Rin128563]

Scarlet was near the exit and was so close from leaving the forest. The whole time she told herself, It's for the best.  

[Nick_austin90]

You know Scarlet, I can have you restrained in the forest if I will it so...  

[Rin128563]

Scarlet smirked, "Try me." She ran faster and faster the evil spreading even more.

As they all ran Suki became huge, "Get on we'll get faster this way!"  

[Nick_austin90]

"Okay!" I jumped onto Suki's back.

Tarry not...I had all my mobile vines and roots obscure her path at the moment...you have less than 10 minutes...

"Don't worry. Suki can manage. We'll worry about her after we get to her. After all, I didn't get a sword," I said.  

[Rin128563]

Scarlet began to tear at the roots and vines. She had summoned a word and began to slash at them.

Suki picked up her pace and soon sensed Scarlet.  

[Nick_austin90]

Faster Suki...she is very near the outskirts of the forest...  

[Rin128563]

"Right!" Suki picked up her pace and soon Scarlet came into distance.

Damnit...Seems we have some visitors, Little Scarlet sighed.
