Flying on top of the dragon was breath taking for June. Only once had this happened before and that was when she had to fight Alduin. She envied the dragons for their wings. She looked down at the few island's in the sea of black ooze, she welcomed the cool wind blowing her hair back. Being up here made June not want to get down, it certainly didn't make her want to face Miraak more but she had no choice. She was anxious to get this done and start her new life with Vilkas.

"Be warned master, Miraak is not to be taken lightly. Though Hermaeus Mora abandoned him he still wields the power of the Daedric Prince." The dragon warned her. "We approach his island now. Be ready." The dragon slowed down and than came to a stop. June held on tightly as it landed onto the ground.

Miraak was facing some kind of shrine keeping his back to them but he knew that they were there. It was hard to miss a landing dragon after all. "So, I see you have learned a few things Dragonborn." Miraak kept his back to her. "I wondered when you would figure things out." He sounded amused as he slowly turned towards June. "I see you have a new ally!" He was talking to his former dragon. "My new master is strong Miraak! She will destroy you!" The dragon yelled and than took off in the air.

Miraak only laughed at the dragons threat. "The only thing happening here today is my return to Tameriel! With your soul combined with mine Dragonborn I will be unstoppable." Miraak slowly walked down the steps. "I'll die first before I let that happen!" June yelled at him. "Yes. You will." Miraak held his hand out and shot out a lightening bolt at her. June was able to dodge it just barely. June quickly spun around and pulled back an arrow aiming it for his head. She shot the arrow and when it came close him he just hit it out of the way with his staff.

"IIZ SLEN NUS!" His thuum shook the ground below them and caused the skies to stir. June jumped out of the way but the power of the thuum was strong and her leg got caught in its path. The shout was Ice Form and since her leg was in its way ice quickly formed around it weighing her down and keeping her to the ground. June panicked and quickly got one of her arrows and started to pick away at the ice.

She heard a low chuckle come from Miraak as he watched her struggle. "This was easier than I thought." Miraak chuckled as he pointed his staff towards her. June stabbed the tip of the arrow into the ice as hard as she could but it was barely scratching it. Her heart started to race as she knew she didn't have much time left before the next attack. The final attack if she didn't come up with something soon.

Seradia rushed everybody to the Hall of the Dead as fast as she could but the Thalmor attackers were faster. They took down the defense with ease and than poured into the streets. Now every man and boy who could wield a weapon was fighting to protect their home. Even the Dark Elves were helping the Nords in distress. After today, the relationship between them might be a bit different. "Hurry everybody we need to-" "Look out!" The yell of the old man cut her off and she didn't look in time. By the time he caught her attention a bolt of lightening hit her making her body freeze and shake.

She fell to the ground hard as the pulses of electricity were still going through her body. Everybody's screams became muffled and now she could only hear a loud ring. She blinked multiple times trying to get the blurry vision to vanish but it was not working. She tried to move but her body was still paralyzed. "Dammit.." She weakly mumbled to herself as her vision slowly turned black.

Miraak's staff had shot out a strange spell that turned into twirling tentacles. Right before they could hit June she fling-ed herself backwards dodging it. Luck was on her side because when she moved out of the way the tentacles ended up landing on the ice block that formed around her leg causing it to shatter into pieces. One of the tentacles wrapped itself around her leg though causing it to burn like it was on fire. "Ah!" June yelled in pain as she quickly stabbed the tip of the arrow into the slimy thing making it let go and wither away onto the ground.

June quickly got up from the ground and didn't waste a second getting another arrow back and shot out straight for Miraak. Of course Miraak deflected the arrow with a spell, he made it look like he was just swatting a fly away. "You're going to have to do more than that to defeat me Dragonborn!" He yelled at her as his staff spilled more tentacles her way. June quickly jumped out of the way but when she did he only shot out more at her. So she had to run if she wanted to avoid getting hit by them. Gods only knows what would happen if he was able to bury her in them.

June ran to one of the large rocks that decorated the island and jumped behind it so that the flying tentacles would hit the stone instead of her. Her chest was heaving in and out as her breathing was deep and hard. She slid down against the rock and sat down on the ground trying to quickly come up with a plan. "Really Dragonborn? Hiding now are we?" Miraak mocked her but she just ignored him.

The staff was a big problem and it needed to go. As long as Miraak had it she wouldn't be able to get a clear shot at him. She wouldn't be able to get near him. June looked at her bow and than took in a deep breath knowing what she had to do now. June quickly picked her bow up and slowly pulled out an arrow. "It's not really hiding if I know where you are is it?" Miraak mocked her again. June let out a small growl and than quickly got to her feet and leaped out. She pulled an arrow back and aimed it right for his hand. By the time he started to shoot more at her her arrow was already flying in the air. "Ah!" He cried in pain as the arrow hit his hand causing him to drop his staff.

He quickly looked at her and glared at her deeply. By the feeling in the air June knew he was about to use his thuum on her again. She was ready this time. "IIZ SLEN NUS!" He used the ice form shout again so June would counter it with her Fire Breath shout. "YOL TOOR SHUL!" A wall of fire came roaring from June. The two powers collided, the power in them both was so strong that it cancelled each other out exploding into a huge forceful wave that blew back sending Miraak and June both flying backwards.

June hit the ground hard and slid backwards towards the edge of the island but she was able to stop herself before she went over it. Miraak had already gotten up from the ground and was getting ready for another attack. June staggered to her feet. "FUS RO DAH!" This time he used Unrelenting Force on her so she would do the same. "FUS RO DAH!" Her thuum came out just as strong and shook the ground as it made its way towards Miraak. His shout blocked it from hitting him but when these two shouts collided instead of exploding into power they caused a massive earth quake and than the power shot into the sky causing thunder to echo loudly around them.

Seradia was awakened by the ground below her shaking. Her body was sore and throbbing from the shock but there was no time to recover. She got up on her feet as fast as she could, the pain slowed her down but the shaking of the ground didn't help either. She looked around and saw that everybody around her was just as confused than suddenly the sky grew dark and started to flash with lightening. Loud booming thunder made everybody jump. Seradia's heart beat against her chest as she watched the lightening clash together in the sky and the thunder only grow louder. She than remembered what Iraka had told her from her vision. "I saw lighting clash together in the sky and felt thunder shake the ground as if two gods were battling each other."

Seradia's body started to shake and she could feel a hard lump rise in her throat. The screaming and the fighting all around her did not help her nerves settle down. She knew this was no time to have a panic attack but she couldn't control it. People panicked and ran all around her, with out someone to lead them to safety they had no hope. There seemed to be no hope anywhere. Seradia slowly looked around and watched everyone before her get slaughtered, it was only a matter of time before they made their way to her.

She felt her legs become weak and her knees shake. Seradia stumbled backwards till she hit the brick wall and than slid down to the ground. 'Move!' She told herself. 'Get up!' She kept trying to force herself out of it but nothing seemed to be working. Her body was still weak from the spell that hit her and now she was just frozen in fear. It seemed like it was the end of the world. Everything slowly became quiet till it was nothing but muffled screaming. "Sera!" She thought she heard her name but she couldn't be sure.

"Sera!" She heard it again. The yelling was muffled but she could make it out. 'Who?' Everything seemed to be in slow motion and it was hard for her to look around. She blinked realizing that someone had knelt down in front of her but she was still too out of it to make out who it was. "Sera!" The voice became louder and more frantic. Seradia blinked again, her vision was starting to finally become clear and her hearing was coming back to normal. "Sera!" The voice was loud and normal now.

She blinked some more and finally saw that it was Farkas. He was kneeling down in front of her with his hands on her shoulders and shaking her frantically. "Sera!" He yelled again. Seradia quickly looked at him, finally snapping out of it. "F-Farkas?" Everything had finally became clear. Farkas looked relieved and than helped her up from the ground. "Are you okay?" He asked examining her. "Yea I think so.." She spoke slowly. "I got hit by one of the Thalmor mages spells but I'm okay." She confirmed. "Good." Farkas sighed in relief.

"W-what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be fighting along with the soldiers?" She asked furrowing her eyebrows down. "The battle is lost, they came through with no mercy and took out almost everyone. The Companions are rounding everyone up they can find. We need to get to the Hall of the Dead now, it's our only hope." Farkas quickly explained and than took her hand running off from the growing battle.

The ground shook more as June and Miraak's thuums collided. It was getting them no where and they grew tired of it. For a moment they both just stood in their spots staring each other down. Daring one another to make a move. June's eyes quickly scanned the ground for the staff that Miraak had but it appeared to had fallen into the black ooze when their shouts collided. Miraak noticed that as well and decided to take this battle into the next step.

Miraak took a deep breath and slowly raised his hands up. June furrowed her eyebrows down as she watched him and then her eyes widened as she saw tentacles coming up from the ground surrounding his body. Miraak glared at her as he disappeared into the swarm of tentacles. They than dropped to the ground and he was gone. June clenched her jaw and quickly looked around. The strange hole in the ground in the middle of the island started to bubble and pour out. Miraak slowly rose from the black ooze with his hands in the air and his body glowing brightly.

"Behold my power Dragonborn!" His voice echoed all around them. He laughed as the glow coming from his body shot into the sky, when it reached it's limit it exploded out into single rays as if it were calling for something. June didn't understand what just happened tills he heard the familiar roars from dragons. The beating of their wings could be heard miles away as they closed in on them. Even the dragon that had helped her get here was one of them. "GOL HAH DOV!" Miraaks shout echoed as it flew into the sky hitting one of the dragons.

The dragon roared and quickly landed, as soon as it reached the ground Miraak had already started devouring its soul. June couldn't believe her eyes as she watched him take a living dragons soul right out of its body. "GOL HAH DOV!" He shouted again once that dragon was fully dead. This time his shout expanded into the sky taking control of all the dragons circling them again. The dragons all landed at once, the ground shook from the impact of them causing June to stumble and fall to the ground.

Miraak took in a deep breath as he absorbed all the dragons at once. June slightly sat up and looked at him. Her eyes widened from the few, the souls circling around him and dissolving into him caused his body to glow brightly. It was almost blinding. The dragons roared as they weakened and fell to the ground. It looked like they were in pain and at that moment June couldn't help but feel bad for them.

When he was finished devouring the souls he began to laugh as he slowly looked down at June. He was looking down at her as if she were just an ant compared to him. He slowly lowered his arms as he walked down the steps from the strange well and towards June. June quickly got to her feet and backed away from him. The power coming from him now was almost unbearable and made June want to be sick. It felt like she had just been slammed with giant stones weighing down on her. It terrified her but she didn't dare let it show.

Miraak laughed again as he sensed her fear. He stopped walking and watched for a moment. June watched him confused of what he was doing. "IIZ SLEN NUS!" The shouts power was like a huge tidal wave coming right for June. "YOL TOOR SHUL!" June quickly shouted trying to block herself from his shout. When they collided Miraak's shout overpowered June's but her shout still helped in it's own way. Though it couldn't block her from it completely it did stop most of the power in it. When they hit together it sounded like a wall of glass had just broken and a huge wave of wind came from it hitting June and sending her flying in the air.

June hit and rolled on the ground it hard getting the air knocked out of her. She gasped and struggled for air, she slowly rolled to her stomach and sat up on her hands and knees. She felt like she had just been trampled on by a herd of mammoths. When she finally got her breathing back to normal she looked up to see where Miraak was and he was right next to her thrusting his sword down towards her. June quickly rolled out of the way making him hit the ground instead. She got up grabbing her bow blocking his next attack with it. "Just surrender Dragonborn, you know you are no match for me." Miraak glared deeply into her eyes as he pushed his sword against her bow hard.

"Never!" June yelled pushing him hard making him stagger backwards. While he was keeping himself from falling she quickly drew an arrow and shot it at him hitting him in the shoulder. "Ah!" He cried out quickly ripping the arrow out of his shoulder. June quickly pulled back another arrow and shot it at him but this one he was able to deflect it with a spell. "This world isn't big enough for two Dragonborns!" Miraak yelled. "YOL TOOR SHUL!" This time he used the Fire Breath shout on June but it was much powerful. The shout came out like a giant wave made of nothing but pure fire.

June quickly took off to the side running for another boulder to hide behind. She quickly fell behind her and covered her head as the wave of fire hit the rock and went right over her. The rock split in two but she was still able to hide behind it. He was unstoppable and June didn't know what to do. She slowly sat up and stared at the ground breathing hard, her strength was beginning to fail and was starting to loose confidence in this battle.

Everyone who had survived and could break off from the battle was now in the Hall of the Dead including the Companions. They were trying to protect everyone the best they could. They were leading them down into the catacombs to be safe. Seradia was walking slowly behind Farkas. She was looking down at the ground wincing from her sore body. Farkas turned around to look at her and noticed the look of worry on her face. "Hey." He caught her attention.

Seradia stopped and looked up at him. Farkas placed both of his hands on the side of her face and rubbed her cheeks gently with his thumbs. "You okay?" He asked examining her again. Seradia slowly nodded and looked back down at the ground. Farkas furrowed his eyebrows down at her. "You sure?" He asked. Seradia closed her eyes and let out a small sigh. She slowly looked back up at him. "I'm just..afraid.." She whispered. "Don't be." Farkas looked into her eyes. "We will get through his alive, I promise." He whispered to her in a soothing voice.

Seradia stared into his eyes for a moment and than nodded looking back down. She didn't believe him, she wanted to but she didn't. Battles and war never had happy endings. She felt like she was now just waiting for the end to come. It was nerve wrecking and she was tired of waiting. Farkas saw the look in her eyes and let out a small sigh, he didn't know what to say to make her feel better. No body was feeling safe so it was understanding why she was so afraid.

Farkas opened his mouth to speak some more but a loud crash had stopped him and made everyone jump and scream. "Calm down everyone!" Kodlak walked through the crowd of people trying comfort them. "What was that?" Seradia asked in a frantic voice as she looked behind her. It was where the noise came from, they all stood there in silence for a moment listening closely. They than heard loud marching steps coming down from the other side of the tunnel where the gate was. "It was the gate! The Thalmor broke the gate down!" One of the citizens cried out. "Everybody move now!" Kodlak pointed forward.

"Aela lead them to safety!" Kodlak ordered her. "Right!" Aela quickly took everyone away and further into the catacombs. "Go with them." Farkas quickly looked at Seradia. "No, I won't leave you!" She yelled. "Please you must! If you don't you could-" "Here they come!" Skjor yelled cutting him off. Seradia and Farkas quickly looked and saw the Thalmor charging them. It was now too late for any of them to flee, if they did they would just lead the Thalmor to the people. So they had to fight.

June kept her head covered as Miraak continued to use his thuum against her. The rock that she was hiding behind wouldn't last much longer. She needed to do something, and she needed to do it quick. After Miraaks last shout June quickly peaked up from the rock. As he readied himself for another attack she saw something that she didn't notice before. Something that anyone could miss.

She saw a strange small amulet hanging from his neck. It seemed like it glowed when she noticed it. It was some strange symbol, one that she did not understand. She heard him take in another deep breath for a shout, she quickly ducked back down as it slammed against the rock causing it to shatter. June quickly moved out of the way before he could hit her with another. She looked back at his amulet and saw that its glow increased.

It seemed like it was connected to his power some how and she felt like that is how she was going to defeat him. It was worth a try at least she had nothing else otherwise. June had to get him when he was least expecting it. It already seemed like he wasn't expecting her to fight back but she needed more than that. She would have to wait till he used his thuum on her again and than when he was regaining himself that is when she would strike.

"Watch out!" Farkas yelled as he took down a Thalmor that was going after Seradia. The fighting became heavy and the space became tight. It was several of them against only seven of them, things did not seem to be going well. Seradia dodged another attack and than quickly summoned her fire and cast it out at them taking down at least two. Even though the two Thalmor were completely burnt they both rose back up from the ground. "What the hell!?" Farkas yelled as he watched them.

Everybody backed up once they realized that fighting was useless because every time they took one down they would just rise back up. As if they knew no pain. "How is this possible!?" Seradia frantically yelled as they continued to back up. Farkas stayed in front of Seradia and shielded her from them. One of the Thalmor soldiers laughed as they saw the fear in their eyes. "With the power of lord Miraak at our disposal we are unstoppable! Not even death can slow us down!" The Thalmor yelled as they all began to swing their blades at once. "Miraak?" Farkas's eyes widened.

Farkas quickly held his sword up blocking an attack, the Thalmor soldier pushed against his blade. Farkas took the opportunity to examined the Thalmor. His eyes widened and his jaw dropped when he noticed that the soldier's eyes were completely black. Their mind was not their own and they were just fighting what seemed to be thralls. "We need to go!" Farkas yelled at the other Companions. "No we must keep fighting!" Kodlak yelled back. "Fighting is useless all it's doing is-" "We can't stop fighting Farkas, if we run we will only bring the fighting down upon the people!" Kodlak cut him off. Farkas sighed heavily knowing he was right, they had to keep fighting no matter what. Even Seradia.

"Fighting is pointless Dragonborn!" Miraak yelled at her as he shot spells at her. June kept dodging them and shooting arrows at him to distract her from what she was really after. Miraak grew aggravated at her movements and shots. He lowered his hand back down and took in a deep breath. 'Here we go..' She could feel her heart beat increase due to adrenaline. She was ready.

"FUS RO DAH!" As soon as he released his thuum June pulled dodged it and than twirled around drawing an arrow back. At that moment everything seemed to slow down and the adrenaline in her blood took over. Her eyes went to his amulet and stayed there, she took in a deep breath and than let go of her arrow. The arrow flew through the air heading straight for Miraak. He was so busy focusing his thuum that he didn't even notice that she shot an arrow at him.

The arrow hit the amulet and shattered it in an instance. It felt like time had stood still for a moment once Miraak realized what had happened and than suddenly a burst of energy came from the amulet sucking all of the power out of Miraak. Miraak screamed in pain as his power escaped from his body. Before he was completely drained he tried to attack June once more. If he was going down so was she. Before he could even get the chance a giant portal appeared in front of them and tentacles came flying down piercing Miraaks body.

He screamed in pain as the tentacles wrapped tightly around him. "You are no longer protect Miraak! I will show you what happens when you betray me!" Mora's voice echoed all around them causing the whole realm itself shake. June fell to the ground and tried to hold on so she wouldn't fall off the island. Miraak's screams continued till Mora finally ripped his body apart and through it into the sea of black ooze.

The shaking slowly stopped and June slowly looked up at the giant eye ball looking down at her. "Well done mortal." It slowly blinked. June slowly stood up and stared at it. "To be honest I did not think you would be able to do it but once his amulet was broken his power and protection vanished and I was finally able to tare him apart." Mora sounded pleased. June didn't have anything to say, she was too exhausted. All she did was stare at him. "I will cut this short for I am sure you are anxious to get back and I am anxious for you to leave my realm. I've had enough of Dragonborn's lately." The eye slowly blinked again. "Farewell mortal, I hope we never see each other again." A portal appeared behind June and sucked her right in sending her back to Tameriel.

Just when Farkas thought they were done for the Thalmor suddenly stopped and the ones that were badly injures just dropped to the ground instantly dying. The others yelled in pain as they held their heads. Everybody just stood there and watched them confused. Seradia walked forward and watched them. One of the soldiers slowly looked up at them confused of what just happened. "Where am I? What happened?" He slowly asked. Everyone looked at each other and than looked a the confused soldiers. Farkas put his weapon down and walked over to the soldier putting his hand on his shoulder. "A lot that you won't understand. A lot that no one will understand." Farkas looked back at the Companions were just as confused.

Soon after everyone who was in the catacombs left. Dead Thalmor decorated the streets but also confused injured Thalmor. The fighting stopped and skies cleared. The air around them felt lighter, it felt different but a good different. Seradia felt like she could breath again.

The Black book that laid on the ground suddenly flipped open and June fell out of it and onto the ground hard. Vilkas quickly ran over and got to her side. "June!" He sat her up in his arms. June slowly opened her eyes and smiled at him. He was a welcoming sight. All of the villagers quickly gathered around her including Frea. "Is it over?" She hesitantly asked. June slowly looked at her and smiled. "It's over." She replied. All the villagers smiled at the same time and gathered around her helping her to her feet.

A couple days after June got some rest and healed, her and Vilkas both said their goodbyes and made their way back to Skyrim. When they arrived at Windhelm they saw all of the destruction but by the time they got there everyone was already repairing. June and Seradia were reunited, June hugged her tightly and whispered into her ear. "I knew you weren't dead." And they both held each other with tears in their eyes. Farkas and Seradia explained everything that had happened.

It was all connected, the Thalmor had become slaves under Miraak. It seemed that the cultist's were able to use some kind of spell to take their minds. But they were back to normal now. A couple weeks later they received word that the Aldmeri Dominion was not apart of the attack and declared that it was a rouge assault even though June and the others knew what happened but they kept it to themselves because they knew nobody would believe them.

Ginji had sent word to June multiple times while she was in Morrowind, each letter go more frantic than the last but the last letter that arrived explained that everything suddenly calmed down and they were taking in the attackers that were also under control of Miraak.

After awhile things seemed to get back to normal. Vilkas and June were to marry in a month and Farkas and Seradia were starting to find themselves a home and a new life. After what seemed like a very long beginning has finally come to a peaceful end.
