I'm only a foot away but I could hear his bones crack.
That ear piercing scream indicated he was in so much pain.
The poor angel fell to the ground in defeat. Ganondorf just stood there, smirking victoriously, whilst his eyes locked onto mine. His gaze scared me to the core, and it felt as though my soul fled my body.
"Prepare yourself, Ike." He said in a mocking tone. "For I may not spare your life like this worthless boy begged for," He kicked Pit's side, causing the young angel to groan. "Unless, you do the same as he did. His pleas, his cries, his screams, they were all music to my ears as I treated him like my punching bag." I gritted my teeth and gripped Ragnell tightly.
"Shut up!" I barked as I ran towards Ganondorf and attempted to cut his body in two. Though as slow as he may be, his dodges were faster than my sword. I stopped to regain control before I could fall over. He was behind me. I couldn't do anything. Ganondorf's boot hit my back like a dozen lances stabbing me all at once. I coughed up blood and fell to the ground. It hurt like hell.
"Worthless mercenary. You can't even put up a fight, so why are you even here? Answer me this: Would you rather I leave you here to die a slow, miserable, painful death whilst I laugh and simply watch, or would you prefer I just kill you here and now to take you away from this misery of yours?" I shook my head, but no words were coming out.
"No? No what? Speak up Ike!" He commanded. I slowly stand up, using Ragnell for support.
"None of those will be necessary, Ganon, because I will not be dying today…" Once I'm up on both feet, I look at him and wipe my lip, fully ready for battle.
"Hah. You don't know what you're getting yourself into."
"Throw whatever you want at me. I can handle it." And so it began.
The battle was gruesome. The entire battlefield stage was covered in blood, skid marks, and ripped pieces of clothing. Though a lot of it was mostly mine, Ganondorf barley had a scratch on him!
"Aether!" I yelled as I brought Ganondorf up to the sky, then hit him back down.
"You're good. But not as good as me!" He said as he choked me with the purple dark magic, the explosion came, causing me to fall to the ground. He picked me up once more, and I struggled to break free from his grip.
"Give up?"
Yes…
"Never." He chuckled.
"If I wanted to, I could just throw you off of the edge and make sure you continuously fall into a bottomless black pit. I won't do that though."
"And why not?"
"I want to kill you with my bare hands." His grip around my neck got tighter and tighter. He was making it impossible to breathe.
My vision is fading; my heart rate is slowing down. I want to go to sleep. I want an eternal rest. Huh. I wonder who I'll see in Heaven. Or Hell, whichever I'm destined for. My eyes are closing and I see a light, a hand stretched out to guide me. It's probably Palutena. I grab the hand, look back and wave goodbye to my family, and friends, new and old. Good luck to you all.
Goodbye everyone…
