[SP-F13] Thru light or darkness-COMPLETE

[Zandra 0]

Zandra sat in one of her armchairs infront of her fireplace. She rested her elbows on her legs with the forehead leaning in her open hands. She had finally gathered enough skill points to grandmaster the whip. She had been looking forward to it so much so she had forget you ned to take on a mission to show your worthy to call yourself a grandmaster. But there was a problem. Like with the first aid skill she had no one to ask for advice. It had its cons to be the first to grandmaster a skill. But she have to do it. She and Jomei was gonna head out on Col farming and then she needed her strongest sword art.

Since ther was none to ask, she thougth about strolling around and hopefully she was gonna find an NPC that could teach her the last things fofr her to become the greatest whip-user in Aincrad. No one that she knew used the whip, except that boy that wanted her to teach him. She pushed herself up. I guess I start at thirteen and see if I get any clues or ideas from there. She went to a shelf and drank a damage potion, just in case, then she stretched her arms and yawned.''Zita, its time to go for some training now.''Zandra said and the golden eagle that had been sleeping on one of the roof beams woke up.

Zandra walked thru the deep snow of floor four, headed towards snowfrost town and the warp plaza. Her feathered familiar Zita was circling high above her, always beeing on the guard with her sharp eyes that could spot a mouse on the ground from hundred meters above. When the couple reached the plaza they immediatly walked into the warp gate.''Angels's point!'' Zandra said with a loud voice. In a few moments the two creatures has disapeared and nine floors above two creatures was summoned, exiting the warp gate. One walking and the other darting up high in the air where it felt safe.

Zandra stopped for awhile to check the surrondings. She spotted the huge cathedral. Thou she had herd that the gate never opens, so she went out of the towns border and into the wilderness. It didnt took long until she met any enemy. A humanoid blocked her way. First she thougth it was a human. But it didnt took long until she saw it was one of the corrupted ones. It cave rushing at her. She waited and right in time she made two backflips, reducing the corrupted humans health to zero. With a smile she closed the reward screen and continued the road up ahead.

Zandra followed the trail with gravestones surrnding her on both sides. You could almost feel the presence of all the dead corpses. After about half an hour of walking she reached a hut. It was nothing like she had never seen before. It looked like a miniature of the cathedral. It was abig building but not closely as big as the one at Angels point. She tried the doors. On this one the doors opened. Zandra walked into the three meter tall building. At the same time the room she entred was lit up by torches that covered the walls off the stone-building. Zandra stopped and looked around, searching for any sign of life, movement or what was going on.

After awhile she spotted a man that was standing at the altar on the other side of the room. She started to walk thru the rows of benches towards the robe-clad person. From this distance she couldnt tell if it was a player or NPC.''Ehm excuse me. I...'' was all she said before the man turned around. It turned out to be a NPC and he looked like he had lived thru several ages. Face full of wrinkles, skin almost grey. His beard was white as snow and reached down to the stonefloor.''Hello shild.''the man started. To her surprise there was no sign of age in his voice, sounded just like a strong young man. He took a step towards Zandra.

''I know why you are here. You want someone to learn you to be a granmaster at the art  of swinging the whip.'' he said and paused. When Zandra realised he waited her for confirm his comment she''Yes, thats why Im here. Can you show me?'' the man took another step towards the black haired girl. Then he just stood there, staring at her for several minutes. Zandra felt uncomfortable by having an old man staring at her like that. But if it was a teast of patience, she wouldnt fail it.''I can show you to master the whip. Thou there is two possible paths you can follow. Your first test is to defeat the holy knight and the cursed knight. Good luck.'' Next second two statues woke to life and jumped down from their piedstals. The white came towards her from the right and the black from her left. Zandra gripped her whip and prepared to fight.

The white knight reached her first. He wielded a huge two handed sword. He lifted it high in the air. But before the strike fell, Zandra made two backflips that both damaged the knight as well as getting out of range from his attack. But just when she had landed something came crashing at her from the left. The black knight had come in range and he swung a huge greataxe that made red stripe in Zandras armour.

She looked at the knights health. The white was almost dead so she decided to go for him, hopefully deliver the finishing blow. To save energy she charged up a weaker sword art this time. She looked at the knights chest. When the art was ready she activated it. Her whip was swung in two diagonal swings, making an X on its chestplate. She saw the last health of it disapear and it exploded into white crystals. One down one left. Just when she was gonna check the black knight, his axe came flying at her again. She have never met anyone with such huge damage. Usually her armour reduces the enemies attacks to a single helth point. But this guy actually passed her armour.

After two strikes Zandra was taking it more carful. Now that she only had one opponent to focus on, the fight was much more under control. She prepared her Aerial spin again. But by some reason,she could charge it up. She quickly tried with her second strongest, ground crusher. To her relief it worked. When ready she activated it. With a frontflip that built up the momentum in her whip she swung it vertically, cracking the ground infront of the knight. Thou she wasnt prepared to dodge after just gaining her balance from the jump. The knights came flying at her again in a horisontal swung, reducing her health even more.

Zandra stared at the singleknight infront of her. She could see his tiny red eyes behind the visir. He only had a third of his healht left, this should be a piece of cake. Zandra charged up her holy judgement. Always kept eye-contact with the mob. Just when he raised his axe for another strike she activated the sword art. Her whip first came flying at him from above and down. Then another swung from right to left. Together the swings created a red cross on its chest. It was enough to reducing his health to zero. She watched the black knight eploding into white crystals that rained down over here, gave the church a white shine for a few moments.

When the last crystal had disapeared she walked up to the old man on the altar.''There, the knights are defeated. What is my next task? Me and my whip are prepared from whatever you gonna throw at us.'' Zandra said and hit her fists against each other like she was ready to go out and meet anything. The man looked up at her.''Its not that simple child. Your next task you cant complete with physical force. This is a fight you gonna have to do with your inner self.'' he pointed at a door that the white knight has blocked.''Behind that door lays your next test.''

After hearing what the man said Zandra got silent. She turned around to look at the door that she was gonna walk thru to engage her next challenge. He said she wouldnt be able to succed with it by using force. So she attached the whip to her belt she had around her hip. She gave the man a short nod before walking towards the door and enter what laid behind it. What she saw completly stunned her. For almost a minute she just stood there to take it all in. She couldnt believe what she saw, but after scratching her eyes several times she accepted that her sight didnt tricked her.

What she saw was a huge green field with leaftrees here and there. Above everything was a clear blue sky with just a few white fluffy clouds slowly traveling above them. She saw humans, probably NPC's, walking around. Everyone weared white clothes like the citizen of ancient rome. Every male had dark, short curly hair and the females long dark hair, smooth as silk. All of them had as smile on their faces, from ear to ear. A hundred meters or so away from her was an snowwhite building, like those from greek mythology and thru the walls that was only madeof pillars she spotted a huge golden religious cross. Zandra walked over the large green field, thougth that the challenge was at the cross.

When she reached the cross she just stood there and looked at it. Waited for something to happen. The golden cross was simple, like the wooden cross Jesus got nailed on, but this one was, she thougth, made of solid gold. She was just gonna go and tocuh it when she got interrupted.''Hello there beutiful.'' A man walked towards her. She suddenly stopped. The man that approached her was hot. He had a muscular body, not like body builders, more slim and ripped. His hair was made into a perfect haircut and fluttered in the wind. His face was perfect, high cheekbones, beutiful eyes, straigth nose and lips that she just had to taste.

She got hypnotised by his beuty. With slow steps she walked closer to him. They looked into each others eyes, mouths coming closer and closer. When she felt his breath she woke up from the hypnos. Her eyes got wide open and she pushed him away from her.''No, what the hell am I doing? I have a boyfriend. I cant do this.''she shaked her head to get rid of her fantasies. Then she looked up at the man.''You... you... I guess this is a part of the test right? If you think you gonna be able to seduce me with that appearance off yours, then your wrong. After all, Jomei is much hotter then you and would easily kick your ass.'' she walked forward and was just gonna punch him when he disaperad into thin air.

Zandra didnt understood what happened. Suddenly the building started to fall down. The huge golden cross fell down on the ground, cracking the stone where it landed. She looked at the field and saw the NPC's and the trees disaperad in the same way as the man just did. The white clouds turned grey and increased in size until it covered the whole sky, blocking away the sun. The grass suddenly died and mountains cracked up from the ground. From one specially high mountain, started to spit lava that flowed down on its sides, a vulcano. It also sent out huge clouds with ash that covered the surrondings.

Even when the new environment was much more harcsh, she actually prefered it over the paradise she just left. Could that have been the test? To say no to an attractive man. And this would be her next test. She looked around to hopefully find any clues of what her next challenge could be about. After awhile spotted a door, identical to the one she had entered thru. She had only taken a single step towards it when the ground trembled. Between her and the door a crack opened up. At the same time a lava-flood ran down the vulcano. Now a river of deathly lava was between her and the door. But here and there rockpeaks pierced the surface of the river, with just as long spaces between them to be able to jump across. Thou she would need to do alot of jumps.

She unequiped her armour since it would reduce her agiltiy massively. She looked around to make sure no one was there. And it seemed she was competly lonely. So the only thing she had equiped was her underwear. Everything to make her as light as possible. Luckily the system removed the pain, otherwise she would probably burn her feets. She backed a few steps to have a short way to run before she left the grund for the first jump. She took a deep breath. This was actually a game of life or death. She wouldnt respawn. So she must survive, for Jomeis sake. Then she opened her eyes and started to run.

She felt her foot leave the solid ground and her body flew thru the air. She landed spot on the first rock she aimed for. She quickly jumped again since if she stopped, she would lose the momentum she needed to make the longest jumps. There was close a few times, but she succeded to get all the way to the other side without falling into the boiling molten rock under her. When she once again was back on solid ground, she equipped her armour again. She was right infront of the door when she herd a roar. She stopped and looked to the side where the sound came from. There stood a deamon, twice as tall as a human and swelling muscles.

First she was gonna continue thru the door, but then she saw what he held in his hand. She saw a red haired human with agreen cloak was hanging lifeless in his hand. She froze in place, stared at the deamon. A loud dong was heard inside her head and everything got a red tone. Her eyes got wide open and the pupils and irises shrinked.''Youre f***ing little piece of [censored]!'' she pulled foorth her whip and darted towards the deamon that was much bigger then her. When she was in range, she started to franatically swung her whip on the creature. She saw its health bar drop down with each strike.''Hahaha! What you say about this!'' the deamon dropped the man to protect itself by holding the arm infront of him.
