Chapter 4:Inbound Alert

Ira gets a surprise..

Ira walked out of the temple to see Faeria and Masaile waiting for him, Faeria runs to Ira and says “Were gonna need to build a shelter to sleep in tonight, and your werewolves can keep guard of intruders.” Ira agreed with Faeria, he wanted to try something to help, Ira ran to a flat area, drew a house in the air with his Nature Elemental tail, afterwards many vines rose from the ground, tightened to each other, forming a 2 story hut. Ira and Faeria were surprised that even worked; Ira’s power’s usage possibilities are endless! Ira, Faeria, and Mesaile all ran into the large hut and set up what they wanted their resting place to look and feel like, Ira slept in the top of the hut, Mesaile and Faeria both slept in the bottom part of the hut, The three decided to customize their hut so Ira used a power he learned called Terraforming, He used it to make a waterfall that flows from the top of the hut to a fountain at the bottom. Ira also used his powers to construct weapons and armor his minions may equip, he also appointed a captain of his squadron of werewolves named Ishibi, Ira equipped him with steel armor, a sword, a shield, and a bow and arrow. He equipped the rest of the werewolves with either a sword and a shield, or a bow and arrow, along with armor a bit weaker than Ishibi’s but still very strong. The trio eventually finished the hut and slept through the night. Later that morning Ira woke up to Faeria and Mesaile gone, Ira was worried for a moment until he saw Faeria and Mesaile Return with many fish and fruit, upon returning Faeria said “Well, look who finally woke up, sorry we left early we just though we outta start hunting for food.” Ira sighed in relief, and then Faeria said “Well, let’s eat shall we?” the trio enjoyed a nice meal and then Ira returned to the temple to resume his training. Upon arrival, Ira is almost struck by a blow of fire, after dodging it Ira analyzed the area only to see a Dark figure that was shaped like a fox with pointy ears and glowing red eyes, the figure flashed a toothy grin and howled fiercely. Moments later Ira saw that the sky was darkening And then many other dark figures started to fly in the coliseum, they all had bat wings, and like the larger dark figure, had glowing red eyes. Ira was too shocked at the sight of the many foxes flying into the stadium, he then saw that they were firing many projectiles at the coliseum, the sky was almost pitch black with clouds as more and more dark foxes appeared, Eventually The large dark figure ordered his companions to charge after Ira. About nine swiftly charged at him. Ira was not going to be defeated easily, As the dark foxes came close to Ira, he swiped his Fire Elemental tail at them, blowing all nine of them skyward. But they just kept coming, and Ira kept fighting, after about half an hour Ira was getting exhausted, but the swarm was only growing. Ira was about to faint from exhaustion until suddenly a large blue portal appeared near him, Ira first thought it was more dark foxes, but suddenly a fox as large as the leader of the dark foxes appeared, she appeared to be female, she had bright white fur, bright glowing cyan eyes, large feather-like wings, a furry white mane, and large white vine-like whips at the sides of her mane. Suddenly after staring at the white fox, more and more foxes smaller in size but similar looking started dashing out of the portal, and fighting off the dark foxes, suddenly the large white fox confronts Ira “Hello, I am Alkayda, the leader of the Alliance, are you okay?” Ira was too shocked to answer; as the white fox studied Ira closely she realized he was no other than the Ancient Reclaimer. She was shocked to see that the reclaimer has risen, but she then knew what the Shadow Clan was after. The white fox quickly gripped Ira with her Whip-like limbs on the side of her mane and quickly healed him to full health. Ira then rose up like a tiger and stared at the white fox, looking for an explanation. The white fox then said “Greetings, oh mighty reclaimer, the shadows that fight your temple are no other than the Shadow clan, servants of the dictating dragon that will stop at nothing to rid you of existence, As I said before, I am Queen Alkayda, the leader of The Alliance, it is a great honor to be of your presence, Reclaimer.” Alkayda bowed to Ira and then opened another portal in which many solders of the Alliance flew out in great speeds to fight the shadow clan, Ira joined in and the shadow clan eventually fled, leaving the temple in pieces. The large shadow fox did stay however, and it stared at Ira with its flaming red eyes…..Ira stared back……….finally the shadow fox disappeared in the darkness, Alkayda quickly ran towards Ira and formed a portal, afterwards she told Ira “We must not let them escape, quickly, into the portal, Reclaimer, we may require your assistance.” Ira joined Alkayda and leapt into the portal. After a quick daze Ira was at a window of a gigantic castle that appeared to be levitating in the sky. While still a little bit dazed Ira was confronted by Alkayda “Ira the shadow clan is attacking the Sky castle, we require your assistance, quick, posthaste!” Ira followed Alkayda outside the sky castle and Alkayda told Ira “Climb on my back Reclaimer, as I fly and strike other shadow foxes with my claws you will use your elemental tails to fire at them.” Ira obeyed and climbed on Alkayda’s back, after Ira confirmed his position Alkayda swiftly dashed so fast into the sky Ira almost fell off; after seeing Ira struggle to keep on, Alkayda quickly slowed down to let Ira retain his balance. Upon seeing a shadow fox speed towards him, Ira shot a blinding fireball against it, the fallen shadow fox then vanished into the dark sky. Alkayda then said “Wow, I must have underestimated your power, reclaimer, a mistake I apologize for, oh great reclaimer.” Alkayda then sped off into the raging war, which consisted of over 1000 foxes of both clans. Ira had never been in such battle, nor had he dreamed of it. Ira demolished nearly 100 shadow foxes until Ira heard a heart shattering noise coming from the Sky castle, The shadow foxes have attacked the sky castle enough to make it collapse into the clouds, but the worst part was, Ira had been hit by a large boulder of the sky castle and was trapped beneath it. Alkayda had fled to aid his solders; Ira was still struggling to break free of the crushing weight of the debris, after 10 minutes Ira was beginning to lose consciousness when, all of a sudden, the debris was shattered by a dark figure. Ira was still hurt but he was slowly recovering, he saw that the dark figure had been no other than the shadow clan’s leader, who was standing no more than a foot away from him, staring in his eyes. The dark fox suddenly said “I am Loctracus, the king of the shadow clan, and the servant of the mighty dragon dictator, No need to introduce yourself….I know who you are…..but I have no time to explain, the work is done, the sky castle is no more…….now all there is to do is to get rid of you, this will be quick.” Ira quickly replied “Ge…Get rid of me?” Loctracus laughed and replied “Yes, the dragon dictator assigned me the duty of getting rid of the Reclaimer, and if I am mistaken not, you are no other than the reclaimer?” Ira replied slowly and fearfully “……Yes…..yes I am……” Loctracus lifted his right foot in addition to preparing for a strike, and said “Ok then, let’s get this over with.” Ira closed his eyes and looked down, knowing he was finished, until suddenly Loctracus was struck by Alkayda so strongly he literally flew back a mile until landing. Ira opened his eyes and was surprised to see Alkayda’s return to aid him. Alkayda said to Loctracus “You will do no such thing to the Reclaimer!” Alkayda growled fiercely at Loctracus until he finally attempted a strike, Loctracus lunged his claws at Alkayda and pinned her down. Alkayda struck back with blinding speed, sending Loctracus in the air, once Loctracus landed, the two opposite foxes stood in fighting positions…staring at one another, but Alkayda wanted to return Ira immediately, so she decided to flash her eyes blindly at Loctracus, blinding him for a few seconds, in that time Alkayda teleported Ira back to the temple. Once Ira was back at the temple, he saw the priest, lying on the ground in pain while being crushed by the debris of the temple. Ira rushed to help the priest so he blew up the debris with a blazing strike of fire with the tail it is used for of course. Once the Priest was freed he slowly got up and……crashed back down to the ground, the priest was very injured, so Ira carried him to safety. Upon returning to the hut, it was already midnight, so Faeria and Mesaile were sleeping. Ira carefully set the injured priest down on a bed he had made for him. Before the priest was breathing and it looked like he was alive…..but now it was worse…..the priest laid lifeless on the bed, not breathing nor moving……Agharphon was dead……Ira quickly carried him to the temple, and laid him in the center…..only to be ambushed by shadow foxes…..Ira was furious….it was their fault the priest was dead……..Ira’s eyes, tails, and body started glowing blindingly. And…in raging fury, Ira blew the shadow foxes out of the sky with a raging fire breath! And then they fled, leaving Ira in rage. Ira has sworn his revenge against the shadow foxes in a violent roar that echoed through the area. Ira’s rage caused might winds and tornados to form around him, Lightning struck from Ira’s blinding eyes as he continued to go on a rampage, little did the Ira know, a mighty force of shadow foxes was about to strike him, Along with Loctracus….But what they don’t know, is that Ira was in his Reclaimer form. As arrogant Loctracus laughed to himself, he signaled his army to surround Ira….and so they did, as Ira sighted the shadow foxes he started to get arrogant as well as furious. As soon as Ira was surrounded by the shadow foxes he let out a deafening roar that stunned all of the shadow foxes and even made Loctracus a little worried about his arrogance’s accuracy. Loctracus ordered his army to attack….and so they “Attempted” to attack Ira. As soon as the first shadow foxes got an inch from Ira…..the battle was on….Ira swiped his red tail at the fox sending a raging flame at him, almost covering the battlefield. Other foxes neared him and Ira swiped at them like they were nothing. Ira was becoming unstoppable as he continued fighting in rage. His eyes glowing like the stars. His three tails causing fierce winds, Ira then had enough, as all of the enemies closed in on him Ira put his tails together and charged a massive power sphere, as soon as the sphere met its maximum size Ira discharged at the area around him, causing all of the foxes to fly miles away, and then disappear into the darkness. Once Ira Calmed down he teleported back to his hut. Only to be greeted by Faeria and her sister Mesaile with fruit. They both were filled with joy and did not realize Ira was extremely depressed until he didn’t say a word and just went to bed. Mesaile sighed in worry and Faeria told her to go to bed. In the middle of the night Ira was awoken by a purple spirit, It looked familiar to Ira in the strangest way. The spirit stared at Ira and said “Ira….I saw how you fought to avenge my death, I then returned here as a spirit to continue to support and teach you, Ira” Then the spirit Dissapeared into the darkness, and Ira went back to slumber. And then the next morning ira and his friends enjoyed a great and tasty meal of fish and other vegetables because like humans they also have to keep a healthy diet. Also because Faeria is very naggy….. After their meal Ira was thinking about telling Faerea and Mesaile about Agharphon’s spiritual return, but they were still effected by his death. What ira has been thinking about a lot since the incident with Faeria, is Mesailes pshycic powers. What other powers does she possess? So Ira decided to find out by asking Mesaile himself… “Mesaile…..You have Psychic powers right?” She agreed. “But what other powers do you have, would u mind showing me?” Mesaile let out a smirk and her eyes started to glow an ultraviolet purple color, and without hesitation Ira began to glow all around his body as well as levitate, Ira was extremely shocked at first but began to notice afterwards that it was one of Mesailes psychic powers which is called Levitation. Ira was let down after a few seconds but then Mesaile began to surround herself with Shiny glowing cyan orbs that seemed to be filled with magical power, they spun around her swiftly until Mesaile was glowing with power, Mesaile then closed her eyes, Then suddenly a Arm came out of nowhere and crushed a nearby rock. Mesaile said “That’s all I can show you for now.” Ira agreed and headed to the temple, On the way, while Ira was in a forest, he saw a odd glowing figure in the woods.. He began to pursue it, only to see that it flee away from him, He continued to pursue it, jumping on tree branches and rocks. Ira couldn’t seem to catch him, but he didn’t give up. Ira chased the figure until he was struck down by an unknown force… it felt and looked like a tree branch, but it seemed to have eyes, and it knocked Ira clear out…
