The Return

[Kai NRG]

This is the (long overdue) part two of The Molten Rock.

When I awoke, everything around me had changed. I sat up - the rocks, the shooting light, the pool of lava - all was gone. Instead I was in a room that looked like it could have been a king's hall, so ornate and huge was it. I glanced around me nervously - yes, he was there, advancing slowly to a golden shrine, which held the red diamond - and three more diamonds, its counterparts. What was going on? I wondered. My foe advanced slowly, as though something was holding him back - something he was struggling against, an invisible hand that prevented him. My mind flew back to a decade ago, and suddenly I remembered that only when the order of the crystals was changed - changed to a specific order - would the energy released be too much for the world. I did not know the order, but then I had been merely an apprentice, just learning the rudiments. He, on the other hand, had advanced to the top... I had always respected him - what had changed him?

My thoughts passed quick as lightning, yet the seconds dragged on. He was hesitating, and the portal behind us seemed to whisper, "Don't do it, come back, return!" I held my breath - I wanted to say something, but no words came out of my mouth. And then, quickly, as one who had made a resolve, and wished to follow it without delay - afraid of changing once again - he turned, and the portal swallowed him up, leaving me to follow in his footsteps.

I had wanted to try out using those Ninjago shoulder brackets, and was in the mood for something dramatic (and I didn't see how a building drive that had to do with the postal service would possibly let me do something to finish the story...), so here's the second part of the end of the world (sort of), I hope you enjoy it! (Oh, and next time remind me to write the story or at least have a few ideas before building!) Another picture here, comments are welcome! (My apologies if it's not exactly action themed, but since it's the second part I figured it should go in the same Forum.)

Awesome parts combo.
