Prologue - The Duel
Somewhere, in the blackest part of the planet.
Two warriors clashed.
Lightning crackled, which sounded like a canon firing. The light resulting from it looked like the explosion from a bomb.
However, there was no rainclouds in sight.
The man who it was aimed towards dodged at the last moment. Then took the opportunity to strike at his opponent with his two blades.
The other man raised his sword in a position that would block both blades at the same time. As expected, he blocked them.
The double bladed man jumped backward awkwardly, avoiding the counterattack by his opponent.
This was the plan however, since the two bladed man was wide open.
He raised his hand toward the sky, and a spherical ball of lightning formed above him. After one second of aiming towards his target, he fired.
The man with two blades could not dodge them all.
The lightning ripped through his body, causing immense pain. This pain made him cry out, cursing the man whom caused it.
For the first time in a long time, he was hurting.
Also, he was wide open to an attack.
His opponent dashed toward him, and with one swipe, scarred him across his chest.
The man dropped his blades, and fell down to the hard rock beneath him. He landed in a pool of his own blood.
However, his opponent knew this was not the end of their duel.
"Get up. You're not dead."
"Very observant." The man said, as he was standing up. He looked completely unharmed, but this did not surprise either of them.
"I've toyed with you long enough, this ends now."
"Bring it."
The man picked up his two blades and teleported quickly in front of his opponent.
In the following moment, he impaled his opponent. Then, lifted him up on his blades, letting his swords go straight through him. He kept him there for a minute, then dropped him down to the ground.
The man with two swords licked some of the blood off of one of his blades, and laughed.
"It is obvious who is the victor here! I can't die! . But you can!!"
"You forget, I'm immortal too. Just like you"
"Oh yes, that's right. But you don't stand a chance, you know."
"Maybe."
"Well, it's time that I finished this, then."
The man began preparing for what seemed to be his final attack. His opponent knew he couldn't block it.
Hell, he had no way to even avoid it. This could be the one attack that could take him out of the picture, he thought.
The man dashed..or should I say, the man and his other two mirror images dashed. All the man could do was raise his sword in defense.
They were about to connect until.
"SOUL EATER, TAKE YUBER'S SOUL.."
A third man appeared, causing the attack to stop.
"Shit, this isn't over.."
Yuber then teleported away before anything could happen.
The man looked over, and acknowledged the son of the great hero.
"Tir McDohl. What brings you here."
"Oh well, you see, I was in the neighborhood, and I wanted to say hello."
"Well, hello to you to."
"What was that about?"
"Yuber is at it again. He wants to finish what he started all those years ago, with Luc and Sarah."
"Well, what else can you do? After the first 100 years, immortality gets boring."
"I don't doubt you there. And you lose everyone close to you too..it just isn't that fun anymore."
"You never loose your wit, do you?"
"I never had any, Tir McDohl."
"I'm sure you gained some somewhere along the line."
"Probably. Anyway, I had better find my comrades in arms... if they aren't fucking, that is."
"See, you haven't lost your wit." "Shut up."
"I'll go see if I can find Yuber's rival. He may be of some help, if he still wants to kill him, that is."
"That would be kind of you." "I know."
Tir held out his hand, "Until we meet again, Geddoe."
Geddoe shook it, "Yes, Till our paths cross once more."
And they went their separate ways.
One went to only-God-knows-where.
One began to make way to Budehec Castle, to meet with Flame and Water Champions.
.And hoped he wouldn't be walking in on something.
