The Battle of Death Mountain: Beta

[Demetri Malius]

Demetri was quick to follow the red-armored warrior as he slunk through the caverns, this time concealing his presence. As he pressed on behind the prime, IRIS alerted him to a nearby opening that seemed to lead safely through the next area. The thief stopped for a moment to try to call out for the other prime, but it was clear that they were much more confident in their strength as he continued to rush through, silently weaving around stalagmites and such, and already too far to call for without alerting the dragons lurking about. With a shrug the thief instead squeezed through the small opening, quickly making his way as the path led up and down, left and right. He was glad to still have a bit of his senses, as he was still able to detect the cavern throughout the adventure.

"Creator, there is some draconic presence ahead. The warrior appears to be settling in for an attack. How do you wish to proceed?"

The thief thought for a moment as he calculated the numbers in his mind. The same numbers IRIS had imediately done a hundred times over as she probed his intellect and strategy.

"I believe his skills are well purposed for this, there is an opening ahead back into the cavern, we will pick up where he left off and continue forward, he will be able to catch the dragons off-guard as well as have enough time for the others to arrive once the dragons recover from the attack. We must accomplish our task as quickly as possible, if we are caught in here when Volvagia returns, it will be hell to get out."

IRIS gave a soft glow, satisfied with her creator's answer as she scanned the area, Demetri making his way out of the pathway and back into the large cavern, the exit hidden above those below. He gave a smirk as he shot a chain on the edge of the exit, muffling the sound with his cloak before lowering himself below, Red-Hood and the other dragons behind him
