Previous Chapter

Rainbow and her companions walked up to Slave Knight Gael. He kneeled in front of an altar, a piece of cloth in hand. He saw Rainbow approach and said a barely audible prayer quickly and spoke. “Oho! So you’re the dear Princess Of Embers! I did not expect a foreigner to be the leader of the Ringed City. I guess I should not be so surprised, I had to fight my way through the Deacons of the Deep and some Demons from an unknown world to get here! Hahaha.” Rainbow looked at Gael coldly, as it seemed Gael had not changed.

“Do not be so angry at me, it was for Ariandel’s own good I sent the Ashen One there. And speaking of Ashen One, Hello there Atlas, long time no see! I am glad to see you alive and well. Now, I can tell Filianore told you to enter Ariandel. I may not be able to enter, but you three can! As you are two beings from different worlds and an Ashen one, the painting will allow you in. Be warned though, you will find Ariandel Alight with fire, and the demons have found a way in. Go, and stop the demons, and bring true fire to Ariandel.” Gael held out his hand and the three were sucked into the painting. Gael blinked three times before muttering.

“Fuck. I should’ve told them Solaire, Lautrec, Artorias, & Oscar would be in there. WELP, it’s their problem now, not mine.”


“And of course we’re held at sword point. Fan-fucking-tastic.” Rainbow said as a Sunlit Blade, a shotel, and and the Abysswalker’s sword were held at neck point with the three warriors talking to one another about the new arrivals.

“They seem to be engaging in Jolly Cooperation, so why are we holding them at neck point?”

“Silence Solaire, they could be a threat.”

“Oh come on Artorias! They don’t look that dangerous… well the pony doesn’t.”

“Yeah listen to Lautrec, besides, the pony looks quite cute!”

Rainbow snapped at Solaire’s blade and bared her teeth. Solaire dropped the blade in fright as Lautrec and Artorias dropped their swords and facepalmed.

“You fucking idiot.” Artorias said.

“SHE BIT AT ME!!!” Solaire shouted back.

“YEAH BUT THAT DOESN’T WARRANT DROPPING YOUR DAMN BLADE!!!” Lautrec shouted. Rainbow was about to lose her mind when Lautrec paused. “Wait. Where’s Oscar?”

“HOLY SHIT HE’S FAST!!!” A knight came running around the bend. “HELP ME!!!” A Doom Hunter then came around the bend chasing the knight, who seemed to be known as Oscar.

“DID WE SERIOUSLY LEAVE OSCAR ALONE AGAIN?!?!?!” Artorias shouted as Rainbow took to the skies and the slayer readied Lucifer’s bane.

”Six new targets Identified. Slayer located. Commencing engagement protoco-“ Rainbow drove her spear into the backside of the Doom Hunter. “WARNING!!! BLOOD LOSS DETECTED!!!”

“WELL YOU’RE ABOUT TO LOSE A LOT MORE BUDDY!!! LET’S CAST ASIDE OUR DIFFERENCES AND ALL JOIN IN JOLLY COOPERATION AGAINST THIS DEMON OF HELL!!!” Solaire shouted as he summoned a Lightning Spear. “CRACKA BOOM BITCH!!!” Solaire yelled as he flung the spear towards the Doom Hunter. Rainbow started to fly circles around the Doom Hunter as she fired her pistol. Artorias slipped into the shadows and jammed a sword into the Doom Hunter’s booster on it’s back. Atlas used his Pyromancy as Lautrec used his Shotels to cut into the Hell Hunter’s propulsion systems, immobilizing it. Oscar used a bow and arrow, firing shot after shot, each arrow sending bolts of electricity into the Hell Hunter.

“WARNING!!! TARGETS ARE OVERPOWERING ME!!! WIDE VARIETY OF ABILITIES DETECTED!!! IMMOBILIZED!!! ARMS HAVE BEEN CUT OFF!!! TARGET DISAPPEARED!!!

“RIGHT HERE BITCH-FACE!!!” Artorias shouted as he plunged his sword into the Doom Hunter’s face.

“Shutting Down…” The Doom Hunter then exploded, and the four undead, one unkindled, one slayer, and one pegasus looked at their handiwork. Rainbow watched as Artorias then ripped out a Heavy Assault Rifle from the Doom Hunter’s corpse and tossed it to her.

“Here you go Princess.” Rainbow was surprised until Atlas admitted that he told the four knights about who she was, and they decided to help her out. Soon the seven of them were crossing a bridge, having killed the enemies on the way. They got to the other side of the bridge where Oscar solved the puzzle rather quickly, allowing access to Father Ariandel. The Slayer went up with Artorias and Oscar to protect the little girl painting the new world, the Slayer handing her the blood of the Dark Soul of man, as Rainbow, Atlas, Solaire, & Lautrec went down to kill Father Ariandel and Sister Friede.

“Bring me my flail…” Father Ariandel said as the four walked up to him. Sister Friede entered the room to be met with Rainbow flying at her face, a lighting spear hitting her chest, and Lautrec beside Atlas ready to cut her to bits. Rainbow smashed her face and flew upwards where Atlas stabbed her in the back and kicked her into Lautrec, who promptly cut her into slabs of meat. They were expecting this thanks to Atlas, and knew to never let her get an opportunity to disappear.

The blood reached the lordvessel Father Ariandel was at, and he broke free from his chains, the four heroes ready to deal with a revived Friede and an enraged Father Ariandel. “REMEMBER!!! JUST AS WE PLANNED LAUTREC!!!”

“I’M ON IT!!! JUST GIVE ME AN OPENING!!!”

”ONE OPENING COMING UP!!!” Solaire shouted as he heaved his Lightning spear at Father Ariandel. This caused the giant corvian to spaz out, as Lautrec jumped on his back, Shotels now flaming and he dug them into Father Ariandel’s back.

“YOU LIKE MOUNTAIN CLIMBING FATHER?!?!?! I DO TOO!!! Lautrec said as he climbed up Father Ariandel using his Shotels as climbing picks. As Lautrec did that, Rainbow and Atlas circled Sister Friede, bullets and micro missiles hitting her so that she couldn’t move, as Atlas dug into his attacks, hitting her as hard as humanly possible.

Eventually the two were killed and Blackflame Friede rose, just to be shot five times by the Doomslayer, who had helped the painter paint the world she was making. “Alright. Now, let’s search this world.” Rainbow said. “There could be something that could help us out here.”


Author's Note

Ariandel Alight

HAHA!!!

DID I CREATE GOOD COMEDY?! DID THAT NOT MAKE YOU LAUGH?!

To be honest though sorry I didn’t write for so long and that this chapter ended a little earlier and a lot more roughly. You know thanksgiving break and all that. Anyways I’ll be taking a break but I hope to come back to this soon! Bye!

Now I know Artorias, Solaire, Oscar, & Lautrec are not exactly acting how they do in game, but A. This is my story, and B. I tried to make up for it by trying to encapsulate the Doom Hunter’s personality. So please don’t harass me.

No? Oh ok then.
