Master Of None

Su's twin shield slammed together and she began to gather light elemental mana around them. Her charge increased in speed while Walker shot a firebolt toward the dark shape that Midnight had shown them by using her golden flames.

The attack that midnight had used didn't seem to have done much damage. It did release a loud roar from the creature that had been stalking them, making all three worry. It had been very similar to a dragon's roar but it had been twisted and seemed to be off in comparison. The fire bolt that Walker had sent out was right on target. The crack of it hitting whatever was out there caused yet another distorted roar.

While Su charged forward and managed to get in front of Midnight, Walker began creating light orbs. He threw them out to illuminate their fighting area. Midnight and Su became visible just as Su reached the enemy. But what was revealed was not something they wanted to see.

The large shape was that of a dragon without wings. They appeared to have been torn off and healed while the body was covered in scarred and dark scales. The teeth were brown instead of the normally pearly white that a dragon prided itself on. Instead of balanced horns, they were jagged and broken as if they had been constantly slammed in to something. Walker could tell that the scales had not been able to handle the magical attacks of golden flame breath and Walker's fire bolts.

"It's a rogue dragon! We need to avoid direct-" Su reached the rogue dragon and it barely pushed back against her force. Yet, it did roar again in pain because the light elemental mana had added some magical attack damage to her shields. Upon hearing Walker and realizing what it was, she backtracked as fast as possible. The twin shields were slung around her back and she pulled the earth dwelling shield forward. She knew that the earth fortress skill would be the best defense since it relied on the earth and magical attacks. She could also work with the earth spirit to change the form to a spiky fortress that would cause more damage when attacked.

Midnight unleashed a vicious growl that used her dragon bloodline to its fullest. She knew that it would distract and enrage the rogue dragon that Walker had told her hated dragons and dragonkin. Her thoughts were to distract and then use her shadow wrapping skill to become invisible to the rogue dragon trying to cause them trouble.

Walker aw this and moved himself closer to Su after tossing another light orb out. He knew that using the melee weapons he had was useless and committed to using the magical skills he had. At the moment he was sure that Su would be preparing to use the earth fortress skill. "Use the skill and I will boost it with my manipulation. We can male a huge spike to lure it in to."

"Heard!" Su communicated her recognition then rushed to channel her mana in to the earth dwelling shield to mix with the earth elemental mana that the high earth spirit was using to create the earth fortress. However, she made sure to send her will to the earth spirit and felt the response. They were in perfect sync as more earth elemental mana condensed around them because of Walker's influence.

'The skill combination earth spear has been taken from the joint mage system. The user had learned this skill due to their high bond and attempt to create a skill with two other beings.

Combination earth spear- 10 earth mana cost, 10 mana cost, 10 mana cost

The three beings that share their mana must include one earth spirit. They will act as the central bond of this skill. The two other users provide their mana to boost the draw of earth elemental mana and manipulate the shape. The earth spirit will change the form of one of their skill in relation to their partner. This is a powerful earth elemental skill that can cause severe piercing damage to any target. The mobility is extremely poor making it best used for close combat surprises and traps. This skill must have three beings to use.'

Walker didn't even know that he, Su, and the high earth spirit were using a combination skill. It was the moment of battle and they knew that they needed to work together to win. But this was why they had gained the skill. They had not thought to work alone. They had recognized the physical danger and put themselves together to defeat it. Their quick thinking to rely on each other was the key to their success here.

"Midnight, lure it here!" Midnight had been running around the rogue dragon angering it more and more. She could see the rage within its eyes and knew that the rogue dragon did not possess intelligence or a single ounce of understanding. It only knew that it wanted to destroy those that it hated and that it would throw itself at whatever it was no matter what.

She revealed herself yet again and breathed out another breath of golden flames. She used the golden flames since her golden flame heart allowed her to more easily breathe it at a faster speed. It was also harder for her to draw in the proper mana for the flames she wanted while in a high stress situation. This was something she needed to work on at a later time but that would come.

The attack caused the rogue dragon to turn toward her and see that she was no longer wrapped in shadows and trying to hide from it. The rage that it had howled out in a broken and high pitched roar before it charged head on. Midnight dropped the skeletal armor skill and jumped in to the air. She flapped her wings to barely get above the rogue dragons as it moved forward too fast to stop itself.
