Trial of Courage
Tyrant-Dragon: Prove yourself human, for this, shall be the greatest battle of all time! *ROAAAAARRR!!!!!!*
You summoned your armor and Summer activated her silver eyed powers and you both readied yourselves for his attack. He towered over the both of you as you took your stance. The Tyrant-Dragon charged towards you, and tried to claw you, but you both jumped out of the way.
Summer: He's fast!
Y/N: This is gonna be tough. Avoid all his attacks! One hit and you're a goner!
He roared again and you used your spear to block one of his claws, but with the sheer force, he was able to throw you back against the wall. Summer slashed a wave of light towards him, but he simply deflected it, and pushed Summer back. You got back up and jumped onto his back, and began to strike his back, cutting him all over. He roared in pain, and released a shock wave of power, sending you flying. Summer caught you and you both landed on facing him once more.
Summer: We've barely scratched him.
Y/N: This is going to be a lot tougher than I thought.
Tyrant-Dragon: Foolish humans, you coming here has only brought you closer to death, why are you in search of my artifact?
Y/N: I wish to return to the world of the living, there is a threat on it's way to Vale, and I'm needed if there is any chance of stopping it.
Tyrant-Dragon: And why is it that I should allow you to obtain this power, and bring you to life?
Y/N: Innocent lives will die if I'm not brought back! Please!
Tyrant-Dragon: Fool, if you seek this power, then prove that you are worthy, and that you have the courage to do whatever it takes to take it.
He lunged towards you, and you and Summer took off before he could get to you. As you were in the air, he surprised you when he shot out a red beam of energy from his mouth, sending you into the wall, and crashing down with debris landing on top of you.
Summer: Y/N! Grr...Damn you!
Summer began to attack the Tyrant-Dragon, using waves of energy to zone him away from her. Growing tired of blocking her attacks, he quickly maneuvered around, and got behind her. Before he could blast her with his energy beam, you kicked him in the face, forcing him to look away, and blast the ceiling. He shook away the grogginess and snarled at you before letting out a snarl towards you.
Y/N: Don't you lay a finger on my wife you son of a bitch.
Tyrant-Dragon: Your spirit burns wildly inside your heart. You will be a strong opponent. I finally get to do this.
He began to emit a bright light forcing you and Summer to look away. Once it died down, you turned back and was shocked at what you saw. It was a copy of Incursio's armor, but it's color schemes were backwards from yours.
Tyrant-Dragon: I haven't used this form in a long time. This will be most exciting! *points spear towards you*
Y/N: Hmph, just because you have created your own armor, does not mean your the best as using it! *charges forward*
Summer: Y/N! Wait!
You ignored her, and continued forward, and clashed with the Tyrant-Dragon. You two began ot move at high speeds all over the room, trading blow after blow. He tried to slash you from the side, but your blocked, and kicked him in the gut, sending him towards the wall. He bounced off the wall using his feet, and flew towards you, clashing spear heads, and pushing you back into the wall. Summer jumped in and began to trade blows with him as well, and was proving to be difficult to handle. Summer slashed him away, and you stepped out of the wall, and stood next to her.
Summer: Got a plan?
Y/N: I'm thinking...
You both began to move slowly to his side, and soon, both of you were on each end of him. You stared at him as he stood there in a stance.
Tyrant-Dragon: You use that armor well I admit...
Y/N: Thanks *points spear forward*
Tyrant-Dragon: But you are far from learning all of it's secrets.
He unleashed a shock wave that sent you and Summer flying, and your backs collided with the wall behind you.
Y/N: Wh-What was that? *grunt*
Tyrant-Dragon: "That" is the power that you could have, but you have failed to exceed your limits.
Y/N's Thoughts: So there's even higher evolution's than this...I must push past my limits once more it seems.
Y/N: Well, if that's what it's going to take to defeat you...then here I come!
You charged at him, and began to bash your spear against his, creating great force, and the ground underneath him began to crack. Blow after blow you would force him to stumble back, and after a final block, he kicked you in the gut, and then jumped over you and drop kicked you towards Summer. Summer began to go at it with him once more, and his eyes flashed red before he began to attack in at a speed that was inhuman. Summer was forced to use her semblance, and sped away, but he had no hard time catching up, and kicking her down. You got back up and began to attack again, and as he blocked a strike, you kicked his leg in, and then kneed his face, throwing him back. You helped Summer to her feet, and handed her weapon over.
Y/N: You alright?
Summer: Yeah, I'm fine.
Tyrant-Dragon: You two so far are the strongest opponents I've ever faced yet. You are proving yourself, now, defeat me if you wish to attain my artifact.
Y/N: Heh, you bet your ass I will.
You charged towards him, and began an onslaught of attacks on him. Just as he was about to punch you, he was hit in the back by a wave of energy, and you saw Summer with her eyes glowing white.
Summer: You can't take us at the same time!
Tyrant-Dragon: Grr...You won't be able to-AGH!!
He was cut off by you kicking him into the wall. You slashed him across the chest, and broke his chest plate. He staggered back and held his chest as it had a gash across it. His face mask broke, and the two of you stood in front of him with your weapons ready.
Y/N: We won't be defeated, I can't allow it.
Tyrant-Dragon: *grunt* You may have wounded me, but you still have to kill me if you want to pass.
He fired an energy beam towards the both of you, and you both jumped away, but he lunged towards you, and tackled you into the wall, making the both of you go right through it. You landed back into the water, and began to struggle, and try to overpower one another. You punched him repeatedly, and he kneed your side over and over. Finally, his claw was able to pierce through your armor, and claw you in your side. You screamed underwater, and he smirked seeing the bubbles coming from your mask. You reeled your hand back, and punched him square in the face, sending him away from you, and the both of you resurfaced.
Summer: Y/N!
Y/N: *grunt* I'm alright...
Summer: Hold still.
Her hand was engulfed in a white flame, and when she put her hand near your wound, you felt the pain go away, and felt full of energy again.
Y/N: Wow, your power is amazing.
Summer: Thanks, but I don't know how much longer I can use it for.
Tyrant-Dragon: I see, you are one of the legendary silver eyed warriors, it is an honor to be in your presence, unfortunately, I cannot just let you take my relic.
Summer: He's stronger than we thought.
Y/N: Well, he is apparently the brother of Incursio.
Tyrant-Dragon: Tell me, what is this evil that is coming to destroy you?
Y/N: The forces of evil are banding together for an attack on Vale, we don't know when, but they need everyone they can to help stop it.
Tyrant-Dragon: And how is it that you are dead, yet here using the armor? What happened to your life force and aura?
Y/N: During a battle, I gave your brother's powers to my daughter, and doing so, I sacrificed myself, and my life force bonded with my daughter.
Tyrant-Dragon: What a brave thing to do. Tell me, what have you done his powers? Have you used it for your own personal gain?
Y/N: No, I never did.
Tyrant-Dragon: It seems my brother trusted you enough to allow you to roam free in a physical state.
Y/N: Only for a limited time, and time is one thing I don't have.
Tyrant-Dragon: Tell me human, if you were to obtain this power, come back to life, and attain an even greater power, what would you do with it? Choose wisely, there is a wrong answer.
Y/N: What would I do?.....I'd keep fighting the evil in this world.
Tyrant-Dragon: Why? What's your reason for fighting? Why take on a responsibility that will inevitably kill you?
Y/N: Because it's my job. I've said this before countless times, and I will continue to say this to remind myself of why I'm here. You'll have some painful, despair-ridden experiences. In fact, most of them will be tragic. But....we chose to walk this path. We'll take on the dirty work. And change the world. After we finish, we can disappear. As long as there is breath in my lungs, I will continue to fight for the people, and for good. Nothing will stop me! *readies weapon*
The Tyrant-Dragon lowered his guard, and turned back into his beast form. He looked down at the two of you, as you stood there confused.
Tyrant-Dragon: Y/N L/N, wielder of the powers of a Tyrant-Dragon, and the imperial arms, Incursio, you have deemed yourself worthy countless times of wielding this power. You are in fact a true soldier of good, and figure of hope.
Y/N: Huh?
Summer: Umm, what are you trying to say?
Tyrant-Dragon: Y/N L/N, you have shown great amounts of courage and bravery, and for that, you have passed your first test to obtaining an even greater power than you already know. The Test of Courage is now complete, take this, for it will help you along your journey.
A light shined in front of you, and appeared a sword, just like Incursio's Key.
Y/N: W-Wait! This is!..
Tyrant-Dragon: I am now under your service, and wish to be compatible with you in an imperial arms form. You are the first ever to wield more than one imperial arms, and you deserve this.
Y/N: Wh-What do I call you then?
Tyrant-Dragon: Call me Galliard. I am now under your service.
He began to sparkle, and turned into blue dust, and went into the gem in the center of the sword, and it shined blue. You picked up the sword, and a sheath appeared on your back. You sheathed the sword behind you, and went to Summer.
Summer: Well, that uhh, just happened.
Y/N: Yeah, I guess. Let's keep going, there are still more trials to complete if we want to obtain that artifact.
Galliard: Y/N, with me now being compatible with you, you also obtain my powers as well.
Y/N: So I can shoot beams of energy and unleash waves of pure energy all around me?
Galliard: That and more.
Summer: A talking sword, totally not weird.
Galliard: *annoyed tone* Do not make me come out from this form woman.
Y/N: I think you hurt his feelings.
Summer: *sigh* Whatever, lets keep go babe. *drags you off*
And with that, you continued on deeper into the cave, to complete the rest of the trials that lie ahead of you. While walking, Galliard couldn't help but think to himself.
Galliard's Thoughts: This man could be the one answer that will determine whether the world will live a darkness or light. Y/N, I shall help you with all my power, for I too, wish for a better world.
