"My queen." Flowing out of an oil based painting of a lake, a purple haired insect armored handmaiden pixelated into being like colorful fairy dust.
Bowing a spider head upon solidity, the woman's eyes slung over to the pounding at the door. "Demius has betrayed the kingdom and committed an uprising. The castle's in an outrage."
"Of course he has. I spoke to Rex of his vibes, yet he paid no heed." Sighing, the Queen rolled her arms causing flames to rumble down her gown transforming it into a gleaming erotic obsidian armor with red spikes.
"My Liege."
"It's Regina" said the Queen with a strut across the room. "You deserve to call me that but on the battlefield you will refer to me as The Devil Drake as all others." Gazing at her right hand with passion Regina told her. "From here on you are relieved to move how you deem fit. I must tend to Sarai."
Stopping a couple yards away from the double doors of her chamber Regina slung it open with telekinesis causing a handful of rebels to stumble forth and be eaten up by purple and green flames.
"I will accompany you." Dashing through the flames and out of the room after her majesty the handmaiden grinned as the crowd of mutinous beings were shredded into bits and then incinerated within the Queen's first two steps upon exiting. "All will be reduced to Ashes when touched by the Devil's Drake's whip."
"You won't lay a hand on my Queen." Dashing in front of the Queen with a swirl of a spider's web like a cowboy rope the handmaiden caught five energy blasts. Sending them back to the sender the insectoid bounded in the air, lunging out more threads of web.
"Aaaaah" screamed the rebels as bolts of electricity surged through them.
Staring at her destination across the way with her first step, The Devil Drake lit the entire hallway up with black and purple smoke that rose from the mandala flooring like toxic fumes,burning and melting away both the insides and out of her enemies.
"Graef" grunting and growling one of many demons flying around the hall and rails dispersed from the flames with haste. "We have to find another way to get to the Queen!" He yelled to the others.
Hmf huffing out a laugh in the snap of her fingers The Devil Drake caused all of the fleeing demons to explode. "It is too late for you have inhaled my fumes." Glancing at her handmaiden landing by her side the Queen gave her a smile. "Grateful to see you still walk amongst us."
Returning the grin the insectoid told her, "I am aware of your abilities and have no ill intent towards you or our King."
"I believed in you but reality is an illusion." Focusing her attention back on the mission the Queen's hand rose. "Charlotte" snapping her finger and relocating them to the hidden family wing in their castle the Devil Drake took towards her daughter upon reemergence. "Rescue, hide, and scramble all documents and texts. Only those who share true bonds with I and Wyvere will be able to translate."
"Regina?"
Telling her handmaiden to leave the Queen turned to the voice speaking in her head. "My Earth, how are you maintaining?"
"All is well." Pausing in front of a giant portrait of her and her husband in their Draconic forms curled around an egg with a sparkling waterfall raining from the skies into the luxurious land and foliage below. Sliding her hand along the picture while singing a soft hymn the Queen could feel the magic breaking down and unfolding like a mass of ants crawling into different directions until only a black hole stood in between them. "I am ascending to Sarai's room at this present."
"Great" stretching his arm forth Rex The Wyvere gave birth to a golden draconic pentagram. Envisioning his daughter's room an image swirled into existence presenting itself in the magic symbol. Splashing through the portal he came out the other end to his lover coming up the stairs.
Leaping into her mate's arms for only a brief second Regina took the time to center herself in his love and energy causing hers to rise the same as his.
"Apologies for my tardiness."
"My Sun, you are always on time and on the rise."
Taking a peek at their daughter Rex mouth and energy rose. "My uprising means not." sliding his hand over Sarai's tiny round face. "I only wish for the Ascension of our child." Looking up at the door both him and his mate gazed into each other's eyes knowing each other's thoughts and emotions.
Watching a golden sphere envelop her daughter a tear fell from the Queen's face. "I wish the same." Rushing over to a painting, daughter hovering behind her Regina paid the portrait a little attention. Turning to the mirror resting on the wall adjacent to it the Devil Drake said, "Culus, Mina."
"My Liege." Popping up in a spiral of flames two miniature demons bowed before their master. "What is it that you ask of us?"
"You were made from my blood so I am trusting you to protect our hatchling until our return."
"As you wish, Rubi." bowing in respect The Devil's Drake familiars waited for the golden light to finish merging with Sarai before scooping her up. "We will keep an eye on her at all times." Drawing a diagram on the child's forehead. "From here on my visions will also be yours."
Gazing up at the rumbling ceiling Regina kissed her child on the third eye followed by her mate. "You must leave."
Watching the tiny maestros walk through the mirror with his child, King Rex's eyes fled to the ceiling slowly peeling away before the entire upper half of the building was ripped away and caught in a tornado of chaos. "Demius you dirty ape."
"Are you speaking of my new appendage?" Waving his new ape-like tail and showing off the scaly armor infused into his furry arm. "To believe all of this came from my entanglement with the tesseract." he told them with a evil smirk.
"Demius" floating upwards like a balloon Rex entire demeanor emitted peace and love even though everything around them were becoming swirling particles of dust which rose to the center of the blood storm. "You know not what you delve into."
"I am aware of all the Tesseract provides and the sacrifices needed to open it." Raising both arms, showing off his magnificence, Demius, flicked his head upwards with a cocky smirk allowing tiny streams of sunlight to reflect off his bronzen horns. "In order to raise my Kingdom I must renounce and remove all others, starting with this one."
Dawning golden orange scales of light over his body The Wyvere's body began to transfigurate. "Demius end this ritual now or face the effects of your actions."
Laughing mockingly, Demius shook his head. "It is not I who faces the flow but you. For your energy and soul will be swallowed by my ambition."
Sighing Rex shook his now triangular and draconic head. "My light shall forever pierce through the veil for out of the darkness it flows."
"I will eradicate your spark and bend your light. You will no longer be in control but will stroll within the false illusion I set before your eyes. And all those who light wish to escape my void will suffer for breaking the policy. For I will make it to where your own kind will turn on you to spite you and keep you entangled within my web whether they are aware of it or not."
" You may turn this entire kingdom into mindless sheep but a shepherd will always find a way to lead his flock back home."

"I am sick of following that boar of a man's orders." Complained a red haired man in leather armor. "If I could I would…" slashing a dagger through the air a smirk rose on his tanned face. "...I would slit his throat and bathe in his blood along with every whore he mocked us in front of."
"Bento, brother!"
Sheathing his dagger Bento gaze scattered through the allotment of trees until they landed on another fair sized man with long red hair and a hardened body. "What is it that he wants now?" he muttered.
"I found a woman!"
"Does she live?" replied Bento with a pep of energy.
"I believe so."
Licking his lips with a gallop, Bento was toe and hill until he reached his brother's location. "Dark meat has never looked so delicious."he remarked with a greedy stare. "So soft and her breasts." Bending over to cop a feel, the little red man peered up at his youngest brother. "Excellent…" pawish, catching his breath from the pain, lashing out from the right side of his face a scream took the place of his words.
"Bento" taking a step back then another in horror at the swiftness of how the woman took his brother down the bulky young man took another as she chomped and chomped, ripping away flesh with each bite.
"Tentro!" Spinning around at the call of the second eldest brother before he could run away the Rhukin was on him like grass taking bite after bite leaving only whimpering screams before he passed out in shock.
"You have left your station."
"Castor" gulping and wobbling at the knees before he could explain himself the giant walked pass.
"Rememer always. I know your waters there is no escaping the enchantress." Turning his attention to the Rhukin, Castor took long swift strides towards her.
"Is it truth?" The man mumbled before collapsing in distress. "Will I never get away from that nymph and her enchanted beaver."
"Excuse me…" peering into the Rhukin eyes as she flung her head up in her direction he nodded. "She's human but…" studying her his animal instincts told him better. "I am unsure who or what you are but I am going to ask you to leave. Out of courtesy of you punishing these deserters."
Holding her beams on the man in a sweep of her neck and a sway of her red locks the Rhukin's foe was within her reach.
"So fast." Turning his body into iron, Castor leaped backwards after barely dodging a lethal blow thanks to his iron skin. "It seems that you are an animal."Transforming into a beaver humanoid he told the Rhukin. "I am too but the bark of my Enchantress turned me human." Slicing through multiple trees with a swing of his arm the Beaver sent them tumbling down upon the woman.
Woosh, creating giant serpentine streams of water to lift the trees off her undead body pakweesh they were crushed into millions of tiny wooden needles. Rotating her head, watching her prey through golden eyes yeent, she emitted an electrical spark which set fire to the back end of the mini projectiles sending them flying towards her target.
Smacking away multiple needles with his now barked beaver tail, Castor swung his new plant arms around like a whip slicing through trees with their iron edges before piercing through the lumber like a needle through a hole. Building a dome barrier from the logs within a couple of breaths the beaver walked to the east wall of his sanction. Himf taking a whiff of the air locating his opponent the beaver placed his palms against the wood causing spikes of wood to stretch out like jagged tentacles itching to impale their targets.
Covering her body in a spiked shell armor like that of alligator snapping turtle the Rhukin took a form almost resembling a robotic knight all while still revealing her curves and feminine traits so delicately. Falling to all fours the living corpse dug her claws in the earth. Opening her beak-like mouth an electrically charged parasitic tongue lashed out and commenced to slash through the wooden appendages before latching onto the log dome. Converting the oxygen, moisture, and sunlight she absorbed from the atmosphere into energy the electrocytes within her radiated with power before releasing all of their electrical energy.
Attempting to back away before the bolts of electricity could reach his dome the sound of crackling and pop breached his ears first before the volts surged through him and the dome erupted in steam, sap, and fire turning him into a half conscious caramelized treat.
Drawn in by the enticing smell of his aura the Rhukin crept up on its prey cautious of his next move.
