Shadowfall and Dark Cloud walked through the caverns as he and her tried not to fall into the pit of lava despite being a demon Shadowfall still had his limits. As he walked his back leg slipped and fear gripped him like a vice and he fell, but was caught by Dark Cloud which made the fear go away very quickly.

“Thanks Cloud.” Shadow said the helmet muffling his voice, but not to the point where they can’t hear each other.

“It is quite okay Sir Jason would have jumped with you.” She said which got a chuckle out of him until sadness gripped him. At the memory of Jason.

“Now then, let’s get moving we need to end this nightmare for good.” He said As he pulled out a cylinder which had a timer on it and pushed a code into it which activated the device. As he did this he walked over and put it on Dark Cloud which put a bubble shield around the device. He he put the device on his back as he readied his SMAR (Shoulder Mounted Assault Rifle). They continued through the cave and continued for awhile until they came upon a clearing in which they saw the spire In the middle of the clearing. He saw the one thing that scared him. He saw a dark blood red and black crystal in the middle of the charging spire and he started to walk backwards until he bumped into Dark Cloud.

“Sir we must end this.” She said we’ll knowing why he fear those crystals. In her data base those crystals were called. They were called, Dauntless Cores.

“Yeah your right lets go.” Shadowfall said as they both charged forward while Dark Cloud covered shadow with her metallic wing.

They got the the small charging spire and Dark Cloud gave the Device to Shadowfall which armed it.

“Sir the nuke is armed and ready I can call the drop ship for snag and grab OP if you want?” Dark Cloud said.

“Yes do that we need to-“ that’s all he got to say as an explosion knocked both of them to the ground. As he looked up a part of the volcano exploded. Meaning it was going to erupt. The drop ship, Shadowfall noticed, was coming. He pointed to it which Dark Cloud nodded and they started to go, but before Dark Cloud could run she looked down and saw the ground beneath her begin to turn red and she quickly saw Shadowfall come towards her. She grabbed him and threw him away right as she did that the ground exploded beneath her sending her flying.

Shadowfall quickly ran towards her and he noticed that half of her body was missing.

“ Dark Cloud.” Shadowfall croaked as he looked at her condition.

He dragged her to the ship as he was moving very slowly. The side door of the drop ship opened to the safety that was waiting for them.

“Cloud we are almost there.” Shadowfall said his eyes starting to tear up.

“S.s...shado...do..fall.” Dark Cloud stuttered due to her damaged stat. “I won’t make it.” She said as her glowing eyes flickered. She used her wings to help her sit up as she saw the edge where the drop ship was.

“I won’t loose you too. Not another one.” He said as he dragged her across the opening and came to the edge of the cliff which the ship got as close as it could until it stopped and shadow turned to see that Cloud stopped it.

She grabbed Shadowfall by the neck as she got closer to the edge.

“Sir..I...it’s....its..it’s..its..be...be..been an.....an..an...an honor.” She said which made Shadow fight back against her strong grip. She reared her arm back and threw Shadowfall in and pushed a button on her wrist which closed the side door as she fell to lay on her back.

“Cloud! NOOOOOOO!” Shadowfall scream as he was thrown into the ship as the door closed and he saw the only family left die before him. He soon saw the nuke detonate and the whole volcano destroyed and His last family memeber with it.
