A Looming Presence

[Rajal]

The Gate to the Dark World....

Not many people ever ventured this far into the world of darkness, and ever came back to live to tell what they seen. However a single warrior came to the gate for a reason, as he stands over at the gate.

He was wearing what appeared to be armor all over his body, as he held his helm in his arm, overlooking the massive doors that led to the Dark World. "Heheh...Ill start my little scheme here. I wont let anyone get in my way....not until I die, or acheive my plans...." The male warrior says as he puts on his helm, revealing that he was a Buster Blader, and proceeds to open up the gate.

[Caucastag]

Deep within the bowls of the Dark World, a terrifyingly new threat was already forming within the confines of the darkened world. Fiends warped in a shadowy, insect-like armor were appearing in the depths of the darkness, calling themselves 'Steelswarms'. Many of them come in different forms and sizes, ranging from crawling bugs, to rather large, and fierce stagbeetles, mantis's, and other types of bugs.

Out of all of these creatures, only a few of them have taken charge of the new species that formed, as they settled in a mountian, looming over most of the Dark World. Inside, rests the leader of the group....a very menicing looking Steelswarm calling himself Caucastag. He wore a vicious looking armor, taking the form of a stag bettle, with razor sharp edges, sharpened claws, and a helm that is nearly dangerous as his own sharp teeth. His own brother, Girastag, was a Steelswarm General of the army he controled, as Caucaustag was sitting in his throne room.

"Hrrrrmmm....Very soon my friends....we'll be out of this wreched world....and conquor the Light World...." Caucastag says to a few of his followers, as Girastag was watching over the colony of Steelswarms, working down below. It wasnt long till a sudden disruption was heard, as some of the Steelswarms were being killed by a unknown person.

"Caucastag! There's a warrior making his way up to the throne room" A mantis looking creature quickly came, but was soon cut off as a blade cut right through the unsuspecting creature, as the leader stood up in his set. "Who dares come here and distrupt my hive!?"

[Rajal]

The blade is pulled out from the dead mantis, as the figure reveals itself to be the warrior who entered the Dark World from the main gates. Rajal smirked as he flicked his massive blade to the side, letting the dark blood of the fallen victim splatter on the ground, as his seathed it back on his back.

"Oh no need to worry about anything Caucastag....I just only killed a few of your people who got in my way." The Buster Blader says as he grinned, walking up to the head of the Steelswarms. He kept his eye on the only one who happened to be there, Girastag, just in case he decided to do anything funny, but was here for a reason. "Listen closely...I have a 'generous' proposition for you....One that will help you move forward with your plans."

Rajal was up to no good from the looks of it...but as long as he was able to cause havoc in the Light World, he would have no other way.

[Caucastag]

Caucastag didnt like this one bit. No one else, besides him, was to take out lowly Steelswarms...but this warrior barged in without any warning, or had any problems taking out some of his kind. Nevertheless, he was rather intriuged on what he was offering.

Girastag was a bit tense, but stood right up between the warrior and his brother. "You have no right to be here warrior! You stand before our leader....Caucaus-"

He could hardly finish before he was faced by the edge of Rajal's sword, the Wyrmkiller, as Caucaustag raised his hand. "Enough...I'll listen to what the warrior has to say..."

"But-!" Girastag tried to convince his brother, but he simply just bowed in appology as he moved away.

Settleing into his throne once more, he leans his head to the side, resting it on his fist, as he glared at the Buster Blader standing before him. "You hope that your reason is sound here, warrior. Otherwise, this place will be your resting place."

[Rajal]

He was just about to cut down the insolent bug before him, as Caucastag motioned him aside. Seathing his sword back, he crossed his arms across his broad chest, as he smirked.

"You are a smart one. Now...down to buisness. I know you and your fellow Steelswarms have been preparing a invasion of the Light World for a while. However, many of the inhabitance are well prepared for such a event. I suggest you allow me to give you a....little advice on to proceed without any problems." The warrior grinned, as he was looking to Caucastag.

Being from the Light Realm, he was more than capable to give the nessecary information to them, as he knew the world inch by inch. He had traversed near and far, and he can remeber every detail of the villeges....in which was going to be handy to take down with a massive army....henceforth his trip to this vile and dark place.

[Caucastag]

The vile leader ran his clawed finger under his chin, getting a understanding of what the warrior was saying. Having an advantage of understanding the world layout would be definatlly something that he would want to have...but could he trust this warrior, the one who had came in his hive and killed a few of his warriors. He would have to see if he was true to his word one way, and he knew just how to do it.

"That is definatally something worth....knowing about. But I will need proof of this...Show me something that will prove you claim true." Caucastag says with a hiss in his voice, making sure that the Buster Blader knew that he wasnt much of a match for him.

Girastag felt as though that they were falling into a trap. It was unheard of, seeing a warrior just waltzing into their hive and giving something without something in return. He could probably guess he was up to something...but he would have to just wait it out.

[Rajal]

Proof was something that he already aquired before stepping foot into their terrirotry, as he pulled something out from his armor, and showed it to them.

"Heheheh...if its proof you need then Ill show you." He says, as he unfolds the massive peice of paper he had, and revealed it to be a large map of sorts. It wasnt just any ordinary map though...it was a detailed map of the Light Realm....from the forest areas, to the mountains, to the underwarter areas, and the lands in the skys. This was something that Rajal had planned all the time in his ventures in the Light Realm, as he showed it to Caucastag.

"This is a detailed map of the Light Realm. I assure you that this will aid you greatly...and also make sure you will be well prepared for everything." He says as he rolls the map up again and then tosses it over to Girastag, who caught it unexpectedly.

[Caucastag]

The general looks over the map, as he opens it and overlooks it. It was as how the warrior said...detailed in every way, and could prove usefull when they would invade the Light Realm. He rolls it up again and then looks over to Caucastag. "This seems to be real...and it is well made. I say it was just too detailed though..."

Caucastag grinned a bit, the shiny rows of sharp teeth gleeming at the present that was presented by the Buster Blader, as he looked back to him. "I hope this doesnt mean anything to you. By giving me this, you doomed the Light Realm. But Im rather curious....why would you give me such a detailed map?"

He was a bit intruged by the map he gotten from Rajal, but he was more intrested in his motives for doing so. If needed, he would have to do something about the warrior...if this ends up being some sort of false present.

[Rajal]

"I have my reasons for it....more importantly..." He says as he turned his back to the Steelswarm leader, as he was about to head out. "...its of an personal matter. I want the world to burn, and you guys are the one's who can do just that. Now I must be leaving before anything else....good day gentlemen."

Rajal grinned as he was making his way out from the throne room, seeing other Steelswarms surrounding him, but not making any movements to attack....as they should already know that the warrior had taken out many of their commrads before. With his task already done here, he leaves the mountain fortress and then returns back out to the Light Realm...where he would do some more...plotting.

[Caucastag]

When the warrior finally left the hive, Girastag turned to his brother, who was smirking in his throne. "Brother...I think this might be some sort of trap. Even if this map is genuine...who's to say that wretched warrior is up to something?" Girastag commented on the warrior's appearance and disappearance, finding it rather odd that he would just let them have something as valuble as a map.

Caucastag looked over to his brother, but didnt bother to move an inch, as he held the map in his hand. "Now my brother....we are already more than prepared for our invasion into the Light Realm...however, to know your surroundings is a valuble asset that we must have in order to complete this. I wouldve had the Scouts move ahead to map areas....but this...." He gripped the map firmly in his clawed hands. "...This is what we need to save our time and effort to make sure our plans go without any hitch. You...dont have any objections to this...do you?"

Girastag felt the piercing gaze of his brother, as Caucaustag looked to his direction. He really couldnt oppose him, after all he was his brother. Nevertheless, he did have his doubts on the map, but had to go along with it. "No....sir."

"Good! Prepare the troops! We shall invade the Light Realm soon.....very soon indeed." The leader says as he stood from his throne and moved out to his quarters, resting up for the next day.
