Snowy and Nyt followed, but followed just a bit reluctantly. They weren't sure what was going to happen next, and it didn't help that they knew nothing of what this little lecchi was speaking about. So far, Snowy had only figured that with the mage's magic, the city was buried, along with their finest warriors, who were truely pets at first, and have been preserved down here ever since. And she knew that they thought her a great diety, and Nyt a famous and beloved soldier. Hmph. This was a bit confusing. And why were they here again? How long had it been that they began their exploration here? Her head buzzed with questions as they were led to the center of the underground city, a large palace taking up her view. She gaped openly at it, as did Nyt. This suprised their host a bit. "Do you not remember the palace, Nytenkatuyt? Ho ho ho! I am suprised, for before, you said that this place could never be forgotten!"
Nyt looked at him, feeling uneasy. And not because he felt bad that he still hadn't told the truth about him not being who they think they are, but because he was actually remembering the palace. He shook his head roughly. No, he couldn't of remembered it! He'd never been here!
Suddenly, a wave of darkness throttled his head, and he collapsed.
"General! We must fall back! The mage is too strong!"
"No, we will fight until he is defeated. Stand your ground!"
Nyt saw the real Nytenkatuyt, and he was almost exactly like him, except his eyes were deeply rimmed with black makeup. "Then I will destroy this mage myself!" he roared, and Nyt was startled by his bravery and courage and want to defend his people at all costs. Nyt watched as the Leawolf ran towards a large glowing orb which Nyt just noticed, and with one powerful leap, the Egyptian Leawolf had broken through the orb, and the magic dissolved, bringing the magician inside it down with Nytenkatuyt. They fell onto the ground hard, and as dust cleared, you could see they were grappling with eachother, mage against pet. From what Nyt could tell from his view, it looked as if the mage was winning. Suddenly his viewpoint changed, and he was looking down at the mage's face. With a sudden horror he realized that he was Nytenkatuyt now.
"I will be rid of you." Nytenkatuyt's voice growled at the mage, who stared back at him angrily with his cold and beady black eyes. "You will be the first to die." he replied, and suddenly the mage dissolved, and his laughing echoed harshly through the city. The mage appeared in front of Nytenkatuyt, his staff pointed directly at him. "Now, back up and sit on your bottom like a good little doggy."
Knowing what was at stake, Nyt hoped that the warrior would sit down. He didn't, and instead grabbed the staff between his jaws, threw the magician off, and snapped it.
There was a burst of bright, hot light, and it threw every body within 15 feet of it off the ground. When the dust and magic finally subsided, they found the broken and dead body of Nytenkatuyt on the ground, staff still firmly held in his jaws.
"Nyt! Nyt!" Snowy's voice called Nyt back, and his eyes were opened sleepily as he got up. Shaking himself, he muttered, "How could this've happened?" to himself. Snowy gave him a fierce glare. "You've eaten too much, Nyt. Come, you mustn't stand on those paws much longer. Mr..."
"You may just call me Harkelt, miss."
"Harkelt, could you please direct us to our rooms as quickly as possible and have one of the others bring up a pitcher of water? I need to care for Nyt."
About you and me: it's plain to see,
We only ever want to stay inside and watch TV,
Because that's just as good a memory,
You're just good company,
And I am finally accepting that.
Remember the time when we stole the whole day?
And nobody knows it, we took it away,
And it will be forever mine,
And it will be forever yours
Now we own the night, and it can't be undone,
We'll never forget how it feels to be young,
Cos it will be forever mine,
And it will be forever yours.
I did not make my avatar.
