Unknown Nothingness

Aldar sat in a chair and picked up a book on his table, "The Art of Becoming Closer to The Heavens", and began to read.

'In order to come closer to the etheral beings of above, you may want to contact a Serephine priest. They are most like the angels of above, and some of the most famous (One being Fenfir Nasttar) can actually talk to the angels themselves. Also, there is Mustenno Mist-'

Aldar heard a noise and looked up. Orange flames were eating up trees outside, streaking across the grass like a knife through butter. He dropped the book and grabbed the ShadowWing, then flew outside, away for his hut. Away from the best life he ever knew...

Tikawa was nearly pushed over, he looked up, noticing Aldar flying away.

"What the...?"

Tikawa sniffed the air, smelling the smoke. He sighed heavily, and flew into the air, following after them.

"There they are!", a guard shouted as he spotted the trio in the air. A wave of spears and arrows were launched at them. A spear hit its target as it impaled Aldar's wing. He and Artemis plumeted to the ground below.

Tikawa looked forward, noticing the 2 plummeting towards the ground. He cursed silently, and started flying towards them. He managed to Catch Artemis, but Aldar collided with him, and they all 3 fell to the ground.

The Guard came up, and quickly aimed their weapons at them.

"Freeze... Don't move..."

Aldar took the spear out of his wing and handed it back to the guards. "I suppose you might want this back..." he said.

The guards took it and threw it upon the ground. "Get up and move along. And don't try anything!"

"This one's unconcious..." Aldar said, pointing at Artemis.

The guards picked her up and began to move along with her body. Then they roughly made Aldar and Tikawa get to their feet and they were jostled along too, the occasonial spear prodding them in the back.

"You know... I was about to go back into your hut and Apologize... But You know... I don't know anymore..."

"Quiet! Or we'll run you through."

Sean had gotten all his stuff he needs for summoning a Ghostly pal. within two hours of trying Sean finnaly did it. Where his summoning stuff once was, was a tall man with short hair and blood red eyes. The man looked down at Sean, who returned the favor. They kept stareing until they heard a cry behind Sean.

"I think it would be wiser if we talked later..." Aldar whispered.

"I said quiet!" a guard roared, thwacking Aldar on the head with the butt of his spear. Then they resumed marching.

Aldar noticed an Inn as they marched through the city, up towards the Castle.

Artemis woke but didn't open her eyes immediately. She was vaguely aware that she was moving, someone was carrying her. An unfamiliar lightness was at her side, meaning someone had taken her sword and its sheath. Slowly, she barely cracked her eyes open to see who was carrying her. She recognized the red uniform and knew it was a Crusade guard. He hadn't noticed she was awake yet. She shifted her gaze around and saw Aldar and Tikawa being hearded along with spears at their backs. She decided she'd rather walk on her own and shifted in the guard's arms. "Put me down.", she said. 

The guard did just that. He stopped and dropped her to the ground. "Get up and start walking.", he said, pointing a spear down at her.

 Artemis stood up and dusted herself off. She turned around and immediately felt the guard's spear at her back. Reluctantly, she started walking. "Jerk...", she muttered under her breath.

They were soon at the gates of the castle. The drawbridge creaked open, and the guards forced the ShadowWing, the Serephine, and the Dragonian into the huge, foreboding castle.

The trio was led through the castle to a pair of large double doors. "Dethrohan has requested to see you.", a guard said, as he pushed open the doors. The other guards prodded Artemis, Tikawa, and Aldar inside of what appeared to be a throne room. Dethrohan sat on a throne near the back of the room. The guards marched them up to him.

 Dethrohan looked at them. "So, these are the Resistance members who took down a gorgon. My, what an interesting group. A Serephine, a Dragonian, and a ShadowWing." 

((EDIT:))
"This one is wanted.", a guard said, dragging Aldar from the group. "And this one was the one who summoned the gorgon in the first place.", another guard said, pulling Artemis. "This one was found with them and did help them fight against us.", said yet another guard, jabbing his spear at Tikawa.

 "Throw them into the dungeon. Their executions will take place tomorrow.", Dethrohan replied, waving his hand dismissively. 

The guards nodded and lead the trio away to the dungeons. They shoved them into a cell and slammed the door shut and locked it.

Aldar stood up and stretched, then sat back down. "Well, there we go then. Unless you two have any magic to get us out of this mess." he said.

Artemis walked to the back of the cell and sat down in a corner. She blinked sleepily and yawned. Slowly, she drifted into sleep and snored very softly.

Tikawa just turned and sat down in a metallic bed. He glared slightly at Aldar.

"You know... I can't help but slightly blame you for this..."

Aldar sighed. "Yeah, yeah..." he said, sitting down. He looked around at the cell, thinking.
