Chapter four: The Battle Begins
Yama rode the horse by fear his claws gripping the reins and pushing the horse to the breaking point. The horses mouth foamed and his legs began to buckle underneath him. Still Yama road it clawing at his hind quarters. Finally they reached the dragon sanctuary. Dismounting the exhausted horse, Yama encased it in rock spikes. The horse whinnied and collapsed too tired to try and escape. He moved closer to the doors made of boulders and easily shattered them with a movement of his hand. Within, he could hear the roars of the dragons for freedom.
“COME MY MINIONS! You are free!” Yama spoke in his booming voice and waited. Suddenly a large dragon came out. He was a Thunder Dragon and his second in command. His name was Kami. Kami looked at the small demon below him and spoke in a rumbling common tongue.
“Who are you, beast, that frees us?” He was suspicious of this black haired demon that smelt of his commander.
“It is I, Kami, Yama, your lord has returned. Though I despise having to take on the body of a demon spawn, I assure you, it is me...” As he spoke he shifted into the growling roars of the dragon tongue. Kami smiled and bowed his massive head and spoke in their native tongue.
“My lord, we have awaited your return for many centuries. What are your orders?” he exited the canyon and others followed, recognizing the language and speech as their leader, Yama. Yama spoke loudly to the collection of close to one hundred and fifty dragons before him.
“We will attack the Demon Kingdom tonight. Their Maou is weak, and their resolve is pathetic. We will topple their kingdom and rule in their place! For now, go forth and devour the humans let the Demon King know that we have arrived. Let the child he is fear our coming. We shall feast upon his court and stain the bricks with their blood.” Roars of agreement came from the dragons surrounding him. He turned his head to the north and smiled darkly. Oh yes, he would bring his revenge to the Demon Kingdom, he would make them bow to him.

The nurses had told him to lay and rest, but he couldn’t. Gunther was at fault for everything that had happened. He had failed to protect his king, and his best friend. He had failed everyone, and now he was going to try and fix it. He poured over history books from the great Dragon Wars and how the Dragon Lord was killed. Yama, that was his name meaning mountain. The paintings in the book showed his size and his dangerous abilities. He could summon the spirit of the earth easily and destroyed many parts of the Kingdom in the war. He flipped through the pages and paused seeing a demon’s portrait who finally killed the dragon. He was a wind specialist. Gunther read every word of the story in the book and paled frowning.
“It’s the only way...” he muttered and pulled out a different book from the shelves, a slight limp in his step. He looked over the pages and found the page that held a special technique for entering the spirit world, and potentially getting rid of a possessing spirit.
“Gunther?” Anissina frowned and went over to the demon sitting at a table in the library. Gunther looked up and sighed.
“I know how to get rid of the dragon that’s possessing Gwendel, Miss Anissina. I need to speak with Yuri, he needs to leave the castle immediately.” Gunther quickly got up and headed for the door, his head wrapped in a bandage from several hours before.
“Gunther, you’re in no condition to fight. You need to rest.”
“We don’t have time! Yama will come at night fall, that is how he works. He will have the entire horde with him. I have to do this...I have failed my King, but I won’t let my love be controlled any longer!” Anissina blinked and looked at the stern conviction that was glowing in Gunther’s eyes.
“You’re going to try and save him?” Gunther nodded and sighed.
“I have to. He’s my friend, and I love him, if I can safe his life and destroy that beast, then I will. But...if I can’t...I will be forced to kill his body,” he said sadly. He looked at the red headed demon who nodded tearfully.
“I understand. But...just be careful, Gunther...” Anissina smiled sadly and sighed. “I’ll keep reading to see if I can find anything that would help.” She paused and went over to the taller demon giving him a warm embrace. “If you get your ass into trouble Gunther Von Christ, I swear I’ll find you in the Spirit World and kick your ass. Got it?” Gunther nodded and hugged the small woman.
“You have my word, Miss Anissina.” With a sad smile Gunther left the library and hurried to find the Maou.

Yuri winched as the nurse tended his wound on his head. Next to him Wolfram was putting up more of a struggle.
“Get your hands off him! He’s not yours to touch! I don’t care if you are a nurse! I’ll take care of my fiancee myself! OW! What the hell was that for!” Cecilie, Wolfram’s mother twisted his ear sharply. She gave her son a look which quickly silenced him.
“Wolfie, that’s no way to speak to your mother, and in any case, Yuri needs to be tended by a professional. I know you love him, but sometimes it’s best to let someone else take care of wounds. Now be quiet so I can check your head. There’s a good boy.” Celi smiled and knelt next to her youngest gently dabbing the antiseptic onto the wound caused by the hilt of his own sword.
“Ow...is that it?” Yuri looked up at the nurse who nodded and put away the scissors and needle.
“That’s it. The stitches should hold for a week then I’ll check to see if it’s healing well.” She placed some antiseptic on the freshly stitched wound and then put a bandage on from the box of band-aids that Yuri had brought with him some time ago.
“Thanks.” He smiled and then winched as a pillow was thrown at him from his fiancee next to him.
“DON’T YOU THINK I’M NOT WATCHING YOU! You dirty traitor!” Yuri sighed and hung his head before looking at Wolfram.
“Wolfram, I was just thanking her. There’s no need to get jealous.” He got up from the bed and looked up as the door to the infirmary opened.
“Gunther! What are you doing?! You should not be up and about!” the head nurse glared at the stubborn demon who’s head was bandaged as well as his chest, though you couldn’t see it under his clothes.
“This is an emergency, Miss, this cannot wait. My lord, you have to leave the castle. The Dragons will attack by nightfall and will leave none alive if they are not stopped. You, Wolfram, and the other lords and royalty must leave.” Gunther watched as Yuri just gaped.
“I’m not leaving,” he said after a long moment. Gunther frowned and swallowed weakly.
“Your majesty, please. This is no time to be stubborn and childish. I am your adviser, and I hope you will take my advice and concern to heart. This is a serious matter.” Yuri frowned and looked over the bandaged demon.
“What about you? Will you be coming?” he asked, worried at the answer.
“No...I will stop...I will try to stop Yama here at Blood Pledge. If I am unable to, though, you and the rest of the court and indeed everyone in this city must leave. I am responsible for your safety, my lord. I am also responsible for not noticing sooner the signs of possession in Gwendel. Please; will you leave the castle and seek safety?” Yuri swallowed hard and shook his head sternly.
“No. This is my kingdom now. I will do all I can to protect it. And I won’t leave you here to die.” There was a glimmer in Yuri’s eyes, showing that his spirit and the spirit of the Demon King were both stubborn into staying at the doomed castle.
“I’m not leaving either. If it comes to it...” Wolfram paused and put up a brave front. “If it comes to it. I want to be the one to ease my brother’s spirit into the Spirit World. It’s what he would have wanted if it came down to that.” Yuri turned to wolfram and gently reached for his hand and held it in a loose grip. He supported his future partner in all he would do. Gunther frowned and hung his head a bit and sighs.
“I don’t want it to come to that...I wish it hadn’t come to this. Neither of you have the power it would take to destroy that dragon. Not even the Demon King could handle him. It was a wind specialist. And this time, the fight will be taken to the spirit world...I must advise you again, Yuri, to leave and if need be, prepare to fight a horde.” With that, Gunther left and headed for his quarters. He would need his best blade and a lot of meditation before the fight would begin, only a few hours away; at the last fading beams of daylight.

They waited for the darkness to come. His orders were clear and strong. They were to bring down the spirits to the demons. Their Mountain was back. And he would raise them to the ground. He smiled upon the head of Kami who circled above the clouds. Finally night had come. He smiled darkly and crossed his arms across his chest.
“This ends tonight. Bring them to their knees.”

“I’m not leaving,” he said after a long moment. Gunther frowned and swallowed weakly.
