Saint Joseph School

As the door closed behind Jasmine, she realized that tonite was not just a nite to be remembered, but a nite that was wrought with fear and dread. In ancient Celtic times, this day signified the beginning of the Bleeding Time. She knew that this ritual of mass death and vengeance won't be forgotten.

"Sorry Jaygo," she said under her breath. "But tonite, I have to start a fight, before I can't win it."

With quick teleport back to the school, followed by a late nite stop to Tobin's in Talos, Jasmine was ready. Ready to face her destiny head on and full of fury.

Meeting up with a Azuria to find out some of the necessary ritual pieces, she departed for Dark Astoria.

"i shall destroy that foul beast Adamastor, and bring hell down upon these self-righteous indignants."

Finding one of the darkest parts of the cemetary, Jasmine sat near the entrance of the Cairn.

"In the name of my family, Des Nuages, I call upon my birthright!"

'Essence of Death, brought to man,
Hatred so pure, Vengeance so deep.
Conflagrations that burn even the hearts
of deamons, unbridled pain and agony,
I call upon The force of Archeron, 3rd Layer of Hell!!"

With this dark prayer reaching deep into the gate that is still hidden in the Cairn, the bowels of hell began to rumble.

"What have I gotten myself into." Jasmine thought. "NO!! I must not second guess myself, or doubt my strength!"

The ground began to shake, the stones began to fall, even the dead that gathered began to be fearful.

Then, when it seemed like the graveyard was going to swallow itself, it just stopped. And nothing.

"What?"
"This can't be?!?"

Jasmine was confused. Her announcing her birthright should have been enough to call them to her.
Then it was there. A dark, swirling mass of shadows darker than Uriel's Wings.

"I am yoursss. You have summoned our power to you, my Queen."
"But firssst, Adamastor needs to be sent home."

With this short, but sharp message sent directly to Jasmine's mind, she knew what needed to be done to feed this abominations power. Calling to Amy to aid her, Jasmine began to search the graveyard.

"RRRAAAAWWWRRRR!"

"I knew he wouldn't be that hard to find."
"Sssslay him! Do it now!"

With all the power Jasmine could muster, and with her new allies to help, Adamastor was laid low to return to Hell where he belonged.

Clap, clap, clap.

"Nicely done, my sister."

Jasmine spun around, fire still burning in her eyes and shadows welled around her ready to strike at command.

"Who in Hell's name do you think you are to call me sister? I can tear your soul from you body and let the deamons rape it until you cry tears of blood and wish you were only dead! NOW ANSWER ME!"

"Sister, I'm very touched that you can accept your birthright. But alas you are not the only Des Nuages left. You think our father would have left this prophecy without back up? Come now sister, revel in our darkness!"

With that last sentence spewed from the shadow, the Undead came at her as if they were commanded by the man in front of her.

"I shall have what should be yours, Jasmine Des Nuages! I shall bring Hell to Earth and rule!"

Jasmine, being weakend by the fight with Adamastor, couldn't hardly stave off the hoard of undeath that came at her. The figure walked back into the shadows and was gone.

"I have to leave, I can't fight anymore."

The shadow beast reared it's fist into the air, and by command Jasmine was familiar with, tentacles of pure darkness came from the ground to hold the undead. Jasmine said a quick spell and teleported away to safety.

"Could that... No couldn't be.... Revan?"

And at the end of this night that was meant for fun and joy, it was not so. True, dark powers were granted, Dark Gods were appeased, and a young girl was one step closer to accepting her birthright, but new questions were raised.....

Well done Jas. definatly looking forward to more

Bump for a recap.
