The Betrayal, the Chase and the...

Rekka and Isaac entered the Stable. Briar was there alone, no longer anything in the water. Rekka could hear Isaac move about and then without notice, Briar Reared up and kick Isaac.  This Surprised Rekka, but not as much as Isaac who stumbled backwards. Rekka hesitated wondering if Briar could see them. Isaac was hurt badly, so Rekka moved forward next to Briar .
“Briar it’s us, Rekka and Isaac.”
This surprised Briar and she neigh up a storm, Rekka presented a circlet and placed it on Briar’s head. Who quickly apologized. Isaac wasn’t having it after healing himself they began to Talk. Rekka looked around and like before noticed that Raaein was missing along with her horses.  Along with any other horse and animals. Isaac pressed Brair for information and when that didn’t work, he intimidated her. And so she begin to sing like a bird. But every time she began to speak, deep cuts began to appear on her body. Not wanting kill her outright, Isaac call upon “The Luggage“. Looking down, Rekka saw, and wondered why she didn’t see it before, but a chest appear at Isaac’s side, or had it always been there.  Anyway Isaac asked for bracers, the Luggage opened it’s mouth and coughed out the bracers. Rekka was impressed and a little disgusted by it. Isaac healed Briar and then put on the bracers. The bracers caused Briar to turn into her normal self, a flaming horse.   Turns out the devil/demon Rekka saw was using Briar to get the group into the catacombs under the city of Lupic.  That it need Rekka's blood in order to get what it wants.  When pressed for more, Briar broke free of the bracers, and transported herself to another plane. Isaac quickly got The luggage to bring up two sets of gloves and the chase was on. Seeing no other choice, Isaac hopped on the luggage and speed off after the Escaping Briar. Rekka on the other hand changed herself into a blue dragon. Lifting off she chased after Isaac. It was all that she could do just to match speed of Briar but not over take it. Looking down, she saw the Luggage and Issac easily over take Briar distance and pull up beside her. Isaac reached out and touch Briar. She struggled to stay on her feet, she then began to fly badly. Quickly Rekka the blue dragon caught up to everyone. She swooped down upon briar in hopes of knocking her to the ground. But her strength was more than she expected, and she ended up ripping Briar apart. Rekka landed and turned herself back into normal form. She looked around and found the Circlet, and removing any bits of the dead horse. She turned to Isaac.
“Let’s not tell anything to Cortanna. This will just between us.” he said
“No Kidding I don’t need her mad at me again. So what now?” Rekka replied
“We head back.”
“Head back where, where are we exactly?”
Looking around everything was transparent making it hard to recognized anything.
“We’re in the atheral plane.  We can travel further while only moving a little.  We’ll have go back if we want to make it to town.”
“Darn. Dragon time again.”
Rekka transformed back into a dragon and travels back to town. Then realize that she couldn’t transform back. “out of charges, I can’t show up in town like this. So now what?”
“The Bracers are almost out of time as well.”
“How about the dwarf ruin. I’ll stay there and wait for this thing to recharge and come back.”
“Fine but give me one of the gems from your Farspeaking Amulet so we can keep in touch.”
“How far to the ruin and in what direction?”
“Too bad, we were close to the ruin when we caught up with Briar .” Isaac said pointing back the way they came.
“What?! I have to travel all the way back there? This *halfing words*.” she said taking off again.
