The Clash of the Immortals

The winged wolf raced through the trees, her paws thudding heavily on the ground as she chased after the humans searching for her. She wanted them out. Disgusting creatures they were, never to be trusted, liars, betrayers, and murderers. The startled cries of night animals echoed in the air as she thundered past and the wolf quickened her pace as she heard the sound of footsteps and voices ahead of her. She launched out of the trees and out onto the top of a cliff and dashed after the humans walking along it. Only seconds later pinpricks of light from the flaming torches and lanterns came into her sight and she bounded forward and with one swipe of her large paw knocked the humans at the back of the line off the cliff. The humans whirled around at hearing the cries of the men, raising their rifles and swords. Before they could shoot she leapt into the dark trees, their terrified shouts filled the air, trying to figure out where she was. She raced down at them again, her thudding paws on the ground alerting them to her and bullets whistled past her head harmlessly but a couple got her in the legs and shoulder, ruby blood splattering her pure white fur crimson. She growled furiously through her bared teeth, her fur starting to shine and exploded out of the cliff; glowing a brilliant white that blinded the humans and she knocked a couple more off the cliff. But she misjudged her footing and fell down the cliff face and without panicking the winged wolf flared her wings open and whirled around, flying back up the cliff, getting showered with bullets as she flew past the humans, knocking them down to the ground with the wind from her mighty wings. She soared over the trees and fluttered down to a silver moon lit lake and laid on its bank, resting her head on her paws.
Hopefully they’ll be smart enough not to return.
She closed her deep purple eyes wearily; pain blazing through her body and slowly fell into the realms of sleep.
But what she wasn’t aware of is that there was another god in her forest…

Zant slinked through the forest while cloaking his presence. He didn't want whatever God owned this place to know he was here. Of course he felt it was too flora filled for him. He preferred the desert where he felt safer.

Ethalyn awoke a few hours later and crept through the forest, something somewhere was not right she could feel it. Then a wave swept over her and she instantly knew what had happened. The crystal had been destroyed.

Zant felt the wave as well. He instantly rushed to the crystal's location.

The wolf god howled. This was not good at all. With that crystal destroyed then the dark gods would try to take over. She raced through the trees, she wanted to catch whoever had destroyed it.

Zant felt another presence...a light god....the smell almost made him vomit...he loathed light gods with a passion.

Ethalyn skidded to a stop as she saw a figure up ahead and she growled, trying not to breath in. A dark god.

Zant scanned the area, his frill exposed. Hoping to frighten any mortals nearby. Though he still felt that presence....

The winged wolf cautiously circled around the dark god, keeping to the trees.

Zant felt the presence get closer and instantly activated his camo. Becoming invisible.

Ethalyn growled and sent a white light into the area to try and reveal the one who was hiding.

Suddenly the cloaked Zant tackled the Wolf Goddess scratching and clawing at her with all four limbs.

She struck out at her invisible foe, catching him with her teeth before running into the forest.

The sound of a hissing screech was heard as The Goddess dragged Zant further in.

As the wave of the destroyed crystal fell over him, Grumor awoke, his multiple eyes snapping open and he skittered down from his web, he was in a cave outside the expanse of forest yet tucked away behind it just correctly as to not be noticed by the mortals. He crept out into the cool night air, moonlight falling over him. He was disturbed by the wave, something had happened, he skittered into the forest to investigate, but he felt something, it was too far away to recognize but it was there...he decided to avoid it for now and head to the crystal.

Zant freed himself from the Wolf's grip and slithered back to the location of the crystal.

Ethalyn bounded through the trees back to the lake, two white wolves running beside her. Her children, both were demi gods. They stopped at the lake and swam over to the island in the middle. She stood on it proudly, the moon shining down upon her. This was where she felt the strongest.

Zant slithered past the lake on his location.

The three of them hid behind the trees and rocks on the island.

Zant sped up, wanting to get to the crystal as fast as possible.

"Mother. What do we do?" One of her children asked.
"I dont know." She replied. "But first of all I need to find another light god."
They then swam through the water and ran through the forest.
"Do you think we will have to leave?" The other child asked.
"Maybe." Was her reply.

Zaida flew over the forest, making her way to the ocean, but felt a dark presence inside her fellow forest and hovered above it. It was moving.
She swooped and landed atop of a strong thin canopy, peering down to find the wolves crouched and hidden behind the islands' sacrid stones and then, Zant. She knew Zant from long ago... he was trying to reach the crystal.
"Nasty bugger.." she mumbled under her breath and then Zaida faded into a light form, drifting down graceflly and silently in between tree tops, making her way to the island to help her Godly Kin.
The sheening light settled behind the wolf family and a soft whisper was let out "Let us help this 'old friend' of our find the exit to this place... hmmm?" She smiled, although not seen, at the pups and then to their mother.

Zant finally reached the place where the crystal was. He was overjoyed to see it was destroyed. He needed to move quickly, the other dark gods would want to hear about this as soon as possible.

Ethalyn and her pups whirled around, pressing their ears to their heads.
"Whose there?" One of the pups growled.
"Shh." Ethalyn hushed before smiling. "Hello there my old friend..."

Zant rushed past the lake again pausing to watch the light gods and he snickered at them.
