       Aaron threw a few more of his crescent blades at his opponents.
       One of the Balrogs landed and made a dash for him as an attempt
       to grab him, however he quickly leaped to the side and threw his
       energy wave as the beast skidded to a stop near the edge of the
       airship, causing it to fall off. He saw another one of the
       demons preparing a flaming blast, however it was shot down by a
       boy atop the mast.
       "Hm... Even with the few of us fighting, there is far too many
       of them." Aaron told himself after dodging another sphere.
       Suddenly a large hand grabbed him and pulled him into a portal,
       reappearing into one of the Crimson Balrog's clutches. This one
       was much larger and had a white skull on its head, signifying
       its commanding officer rank. The beast roared loudly and spat a
       sphere at direct contact, creating an explosion that broke off
       Aaron's helmet. The beast roared once again as it had begun
       preparing another blast from its mouth. Just then, numerous
       piercing arrows impaled the creature's arm and hand, causing it
       to drop Aaron into the depths of the dark clouds. A "woosh" was
       made as the knight was picked up from the sky by a Harpy and
       dropped him off back on the ship.
       "Lily, Amber, thank you for your aid." Aaron replied to the Elf
       who shot the Balrog and the Harpy who rescued him.
       "I'm glad you're all right! I was worried right after you left!"
       Lily said as she hugged her friend, crying on his chest.
       The commanding Balrog angrily roared, ordering the creatures to
       regroup. It then performed a runic spell which healed its
       comrades. It roared once again, commanding all the Crimson
       Balrogs to restlessly attack the airship with their magical
       blasts.

       Reiyanne watched Aaron's safe reappearance and moved over
       towards his group. Her energy was dangerously low and her vision
       was beginning to blur. She stopped a few feet away from and
       collapsed to her knees. She opened her mouth to speak then
       stopped as the leader Balrog roared. A shining light enveloped
       the other members then soon after once battered and beaten
       Balrogs rose to the skies again.
       "Shoot..." Reiyanne groaned. "Is there ever an end?!!"
       "Reiyanne!"
       A soft blue light enveloped Reiyanne, Aaron and his companions.
       After it dissipated, Reiyanne's energy was restored and Lyra and
       Blue came running up behind her.
       "Thanks, Lyra," she said quietly.
       "Hahah, no problem!" Lyra beamed then shot a glare at Blue,
       "Blue...jeez what am I going to do with you?!"
       Blue shrugged and smiled innocently in reply then made a yell
       and pointed, "Look out!"
       A Balrog had charged at the group, and in almost perfect unison
       the three leapt into the air. Reiyanne had managed to land
       beside her hammer and taking it in her hands she swung and
       knocked out ten Balrogs out of the sky. Blue and Lyra also began
       their own attacks, Blue showered them with arrows and Lyra
       devasted them with lightning spells of her.
       "Ugh!" she exclaimed then pointed her hammer at Aaron, "if we
       keep fighting, they'll just keep coming back! If my observations
       are correct, then taking out the leader would be our best course
       of action, correct?"

       Aaron felt exhausted until he was revitalized by Lyra. Right
       after that, one of the Balrogs broke formation and charged,
       however Reiyanne swung her mace like a baseball bat and scored a
       "home run" by knocking out ten other Balrogs. Blue and Lyra
       returned fire as well as Lily with her arrows and Amber
       diverting the enemy's attacks with her wind.
       "Ugh! If we keep fighting, they'll just keep coming back! If my
       observations are correct, then taking out the leader would be
       our best course of action, correct?" Reiyanne exclaimed.
       "In ordinary cases, yes. However, these are Demons, and
       generally the majority of them do not retreat even with their
       leader down... They would still stand strong and fight." Aaron
       replied. He noticed that the head Balrog casted a group healing
       spell, restoring the energy of its comrades.
       "But, it appears that only the leader can perform the healing
       spells..."
       Aaron climbed the mast and prepared himself at the top. He
       charged a massive crescent blade and threw his Halfmoon Slash
       attack, wiping out the majority of the Balrogs and destroyed the
       helmet of the leader Crimson Balrog. It roared furiously and
       channeled a massive sphere that absorbed all the other Crimson
       Balrogs. It then created a powerful explosion and smoke; Aaron
       shielded his eyes. When it came to, a massive Crimson Balrog
       roughly the size of the Albatross. It then absorbed power from
       particles of the surrounding crimson skies.
       "Brace yourselves!" Aaron yelled to his comrades.
       The Empowered Crimson Balrog spat a massive laser a split down
       the middle on Albatross, tearing it into two. With the ship
       critically damaged beyond repair, it started to fall out of the
       sky into the vast blue ocean. The Balrog seemed to laugh as it
       vanished into the darkness, and the dark crimson skies subsided.

       "Reiya!" cried Blue as he leapt over the expanding split of the
       Albatross. Reiyanne wrapped him in her arms and held him
       tightly. Lyra had also manage to get to the same side and
       holding onto whatever sturdy thing they could find they all
       braces themselves for the coming impact. A light spray fell upon
       them as the ship made its first dip into ocean below. As it
       continued it's descent beneath the waves the ship began to break
       apart even further. Blue held onto Reiyanne tight as she made
       leaps through the falling debris and after the entire ordeal
       managed to land safely on floating wreckage.
       "Oh no!" Reiyanne whispered. Blue leapt from her arms and looked
       on horrified the remaining parts of the Albatross mades its
       final farewelk before disappearing entirely into the ocean.
       "Rei...what about Lyra... and everyone else-" Blue was cut off
       as Reiyanne pulled him into a comforting hug. She laid her head
       onto his as he stifled tears as he leaned in close to her chest.
       "Rei...I'm scared..." Reiyanne  didn't respond as she stared off
       at where the Albatross once flew. Her face was expressionless as
       she observed the floating wreckage and the flotsam. Staring,
       hoping, for any new signs of hope on the horizon. She looked
       back up into the sky, clear now and the sky had clear of the
       beasts.

       Aaron, on one side of the Albatross, clung onto the ship's side.
       He spotted Lily and Amber on his side with Reiyanne, Blue, and
       Lyra on the other.
       "Amber! Please take Lily into the skies!" Aaron yelled.
       "But... Aaron...!" Lily said with worry.
       "Go! I promise I will be fine!" Aaron responded.
       Amber nodded and quickly picked up Lily. She screamed her
       friend's name as the Albatross fell into the abyss. After the
       loud "splash!", Amber landed on one of the giant pieces of
       wrecks near Reiyanne. Aaron fell into the cold ocean, spotting
       numerous survivors struggling for their life. He tried to save
       them while dodging the falling wrecks, however one chunk of
       metal the size of a large boulder landed on his chest. The
       boulder slowly pushed him down until he managed to struggle
       free, however the struggling used up most of his air, and he was
       rendered unconscious. His body slowly floated to the surface of
       the ocean, near the pile of wreckage where Reiyanne was on.

       Reiyanne blinked and released Blue as she reached for the the
       body floating close to the wreckage that she and Blue took
       refuge on. She had recognized his face immedietaly as she
       dragged him onboard. The young man that laid seemingly lifeless
       onboard was, Sir Aaron. She stared at him for a moment then laid
       her head down on his chest.
       "He's alive," Reiyanne said seriously then kneeled down and
       proceeded to press on his chest firmly, trying to revive him.
       Blue watched her quietly then gasped and reached into his
       pockets, after some digging around he pulled at a small vial and
       handed it to Reiyanne, "Try this, Lyra made this potion so it
       should have some effect." Reiyanne nodded and smiled as she
       poured a few drops of liquid down the knight's lip. Then she
       moved back and waited.

       Aaron's eyes slowly opened after drinking the potion made by
       Lyra. He coughed a bit and blinked, staring at Reiyanne.
       "Tastes like cherries... Thank you, Lady Reiyanne and Sir Blue."
       Aaron smiled warmly. Lily jumped onto the wreckage and held
       Aaron in her arms, crying.
       "Oh Aaron... I thought I lost you..." she said.
       "I told you, dear Lily. I would be all right." Aaron replied. He
       spotted many of the survivors clinging onto the wreckage.
       "There are a few survivors scattered within the wreckage. They
       seem all right, though. Hopefully we do not freeze up, like what
       had occured in the Titanic..."
       Five minutes later, a few rescue boats from the northeast came.
       Survivors shouted for the dwarves.
       "Oy! What the hell happened here?" one of the drivers asked.

       Reiyanne stared at Aaron for a moment then averted her gaze as
       he was pounced by his elf friend.
       Then in a quiet murmur Reiyanne said, "Consider my debt
       repayed...Sir Aaron."
       Help came relatively quickly, and soon rescue boats appeared
       before them. Reiyanne looked away as they barked a question at
       them. All the rush and passion of battle was gone and the shy
       ghost of spirit filled her completely.
       "Sirs!" Blue shouted, noticing Reiyanne's change, he spoke in
       her stead and told the people on the rescue boats, the attack of
       the Albatross and its fall. The drivers nodded and following
       Blue, Reiyanne climbed onboard a rescue boat. She noted how the
       driver seemed to have froze up as she past by and sighed.  Other
       refugees also gave her uneasy looks as she sat down. I guess
       because they're all shaken up, my prescence have a greater
       effect on people, she thought, frowning a little. Blue placed a
       hand on her shoulder trying to comfort his older friend but
       whether Reiyanne noticed or not it did little to affect her
       mood.

       The young Blue spoke in Reiyanne's stead, explaining the
       previous events. The drivers nodded with what appeared to be
       fear in their faces. Aaron, after climbing aboard along with his
       comrades, looked at Reiyanne, noticing her cold, dark
       expression. First, Aaron told the driver to look for Lyra,
       giving a detailed description of her, and then turned his
       attention back to Reiyanne.
       "Lady Reiyanne... It was the recent attack that had shaken up
       everyone, rather than your ominous expression. The Demonic
       Balrogs were indeed frightful, and Humanity as well as the
       Dwarves had always feared the return of the Demonic Sieges upon
       the world. Even one demon can stir a colony of mortals." Aaron
       told his new friend as an attempt to comfort her.
       "Oy, Demon Balrogs you say?" the driver's assistant asked. He
       then motioned Aaron to come near so others would not hear.
       "You had seen and fought the bastards, did you not?" he asked
       again. Aaron nodded.
       "'Tis our worst fears had come true. The seal of the Balrog the
       Ancient has weakened yet again. One of the many demons that we
       all fear shall soon awaken."
       "Balrog the Ancient... I hope we can reseal it in time." Aaron
       responded. The dwarf nodded and sighed.

       Reiyanne looked up as Aaron approached. He spoke to her in an
       attempt to comfort her. After he was done however Reiyanne felt
       her soul floating away. She had specifically focused on the
       words "ominous" and "feared". She stood up shakily and trudging
       past Aaron like a zombie she moved a short distance then
       collapsed on her face. The other refugees stared at her in
       horror as she laid there motionless repeating the words
       "ominous" and "feared".
       "Rei-Reiyanne!" Blue cried as he knelt beside her, he then swung
       around to and gave Aaron a worried expression. "I know you were
       trying to help, but please be more gentle with your word choice
       around, Reiyanne, until you really know her! She may look scary
       at times, but she can be really self conscious too!" After he
       was done, Reiyanne still on the ground turned her head towards,
       Blue.
       "I'm scary..." she said the words rattling past her lips slowly.
       She was smiling but her slate blue grey eyes were as dim and
       cold as a winter night.
       "Gah! No! Reiyanne I didn't mean...gah!"
