Hi, guys! This is my latest upload after a very looong time!!

This story will conclude the three separate storylines of my characters after their "banishment" to another world...

This story centered around Avila, the dark Argoon dragon.

Enjoy!!!


The Dark Portal to the Otherworld

Death...what is the meaning of death? Is it the last thing that will eventually take all beings, immortal or mortal? Or, is it the corruption of soul that led to a very discreet end, either the end of the universe or the end of the being itself. It's up to what every being might think, for the death had started a tear from the corruption itself.

The night bit the coldness of sorrow deeper into the dragon's there. As most of them were fire-based, they could stand the cold. It wasn't the coldness of the night that bit them. It was the coldness of sadness.

Tear ran down from Avila's yellow eyes, seeing Raithorakh's life faded and seeing Richard fell to the side, taken by sorrow on being left by his first dragon friend, his mount, and his family. Avila then also felt Seraphor's wings closing over her, embracing her with his wings, while Avila cried like a baby. The obsidian colored knew crying wouldn' take the dragon's soul back, but sudden memories from her with Raithorakh appeared before her like illusions from her fear power, but she didn't mind them. She couldn't even think straight, and she only returned to the present when Seraphor suddenly jerked. His smaller body made quite a jerk, pushing Avila to the point of almost hurting her.

"Ow, what happened to you, Sera? That hurts," said Avila while rubbing her left leg, the one that got sudden hit from Seraphor's tail. But then, she didn't see her mate beside her, but above her. He had opened his wings and judging from the rush, Avila knew something wrong happened when she was deep inside sorrow. She glanced at Raithorakh's body, and saw it started to crackle with black jolts of electricity. Sensing something wasn't right, she opened her wings and took account on her swiftness in flying and followed Seraphor. Her feeling was right. Raithorakh's body blew up like eggs in a closed heating cube. The explosion didn't give away piles of dragon meats and metallic scraps, but instead, electricity sparks, pitch as black started to follow the nearest dragon and took some nearest to her, including her mate. She managed to elude one with her good maneuver, and failed to realize another spark hit her at the back.

A portal, as dark as her darkness, started to suck her in like the one she saw sucking Seraphor in too. His grip was not strong enough to hold her (Seraphor had hand-like paws, but his grip sucks), and he was thrown into the darkness. Avila was roaring and screamed his name before she cut out when the scenery closed in front of her. She then turned and said, "I'm...all alone" before the swirling black tornado-like portal ended in an eternal blackness.
