Valgaav narrowed his eyes as he looked up. "Jillas." He calmed down as he saw his loyal men walking into his chamber. "It's been too long."
"Lord Valgaav." The fox creature teared up as he saw his best friend. "I'm sorry, we saw the Sword of Light, but we were unable to..."
Valgaav shook his head. "Forget about it, Jillas. That group is far more powerful than I imagined. I can see how Lord Gaav fell to her, if her daughter is so powerful." He leaned back in his throne and narrowed his eyes. "And that Gold Dragon Priestess is on their side, that makes things much harder."
"Lord Valgaav..." Jillas spoke up, smiling nervously. "I know you want revenge, but, wouldn't it be better to get your revenge when they're vulnerable?"
Valgaav sighed softly. Jillas didn't understand everything, but then again, he was glad for that. Otherwise his friend would leave him. Mazoku didn't have friends after all. "Don't worry about it for now, Jillas."
"You're hurt!" Jillas gasped as he saw Valgaav's side, which was burned and crackling with flecks of energy. "What did this to you?"
"Lina Inverse's daughter." Valgaav muttered, getting a worried frown from Jillas.
"Lord Valgaav, you just recover, I'll deal with this." Before Valgaav could say anything, Jillas had turned and left, running out of the room.
Valgaav grimaced. "Fool, you'll get killed!" He hissed as he tried to take after Jillas and fell to his knees. "Damn it!" He growled, he needed to stop his friend.

"Erulogos." The Shinzoku in question turned to the speaker.
"Almace." He nodded at the larger Shinzoku. "What do you want?"
"Where did you go?"
"I was scouting out those Mazoku." The blue-skinned Mazoku snarled and narrowed his eyes. "It seems that a very powerful one decided to get involved."
"Really?" Almace sighed, damn, this was becoming complicated. "We still need Gorun Nova."
"And we need to get Ragudo Mezegis back from Valgaav." Erulogos felt a smirk coming to his face.
"Erulogos?" Almace frowned as the other Shinzoku disappeared. "Just what is going on around here?"

"Now, take my power..." Dynast smirked at the Supreme Elder and the forty other Gold Dragons, all of whom were in their human forms, that he managed to get that were loyal to him. The gold spears were glowing with a dark purple energy before they floated in front of each of the Dragons. "If you accept me, take this power and become strong!" As the Dragons took the power and the room was flooded with dark light, Dynast grinned savagely. "As for you, Elder... Your name..." He touched the old Dragon on the forehead, flooding the Dragon with power, which went to the other Dragons, changing their robes from white to a dark blue-purple color. "Your name, Elder, is no longer what it was. You are now... Dyn." He smirked at the Dragon, who was kneeling and looking down.
Dyn stood up, he looked like a man who was in his early thirties, with blond hair that trailed down his back. "Yes, Lord Dynast." His voice hadn't changed much, it did sound softer, but it was still the same as before.
"Supreme Elder!" The whole group turned as a Dragon entered the room, only to gasp. "You... You're a Mazoku!" He pointed at Dynast, who grinned at him.
"Master Dyn... Why don't you... Use that new power that I granted you?"
Dyn took a step forward and narrowed his eyes at the other Dragon. "This is for the sake of the world."
The Dragon took several steps back as a red ball appeared at the end of the staff.
"Darkness Beyond Twilight...
Crimson Beyond Blood That Flows...
Buried in the Stream of Time...
Is where your power grows.
I pledge myself to conquer
All the foes that stand...
Against the mighty gift bestowed...
In my unworthy hand...
Let all those who stand before me...
Be destroyed by the power you and I possess!"
The Dragon had long since turned and was fleeing the area, flying into the air as fast as he could move.
"Dragon Slave."
It wasn't fast enough, as a red beam lanced out from the tip of the staff, racing through the air and connecting with the Dragon, destroying his body in a flash of red.
"Excellent, my servant!" Dynast clapped his hands as he walked towards the Dragon and patted him on the back. "Your youth, stamina, power have been restored to you. Now," he gestured to the group, "you should not tarry long."
"Where to next, master?"
"We need to get the fifth weapon of light." Dynast said to Dyn. "Unfortunately, I don't know where that is, you do. And I doubt that I can get through any barriers that are in place."
"Of course." Dyn nodded as all the Dragons, Sherra and Dynast disappeared in a flash of energy.
