Author's Notes: Enjoy my second sequel to 'The Extreme'!
Disclaimers: Cardcaptors belong to CLAMP, Radiant, Archangel belongs to Wizards of the Coast. The original Hellspawn concept belongs to Todd McFarlane and Image Comics. (by the way, the name of the story is based on the name of a Spawn video game produced by Capcom for the Sega Dreamcast) I only own Shadow.
Into the Demon's Hand
All they could see was nothing but white light. Sakura and Li were standing in the middle of nowhere. "Where are we, Li?" The Chinese boy started to search his memory of what Shadow had told them before their world was destroyed. "This must be the Hierarchy."
"What is going to happen to us? What about Madison and Chelsea and all the others? What is going to happen to them?" Li put a hand on Sakura's shoulder. "I'm sure they're fine. We just have to find them."
"Easier said than done. We don't know anything of this place. It's not like a door is going to appear and lead us somewhere." Suddenly, the clouds began to shift, revealing an opening golden gate. Li just gave Sakura an intriguing look before the both of them went through the doors.
"Initial scans complete. Both subjects have a large amount of purity." The priest looked up to see the archangel. "What should we do, Radiant?" She turned to where the cardcaptors were on the screen. "We'll look at them separately. I take the cherry blossom and you take the little wolf." The priest had a confused look on his face.
Radiant sighed. "In the Japanese language, Sakura means cherry blossom, Syaoran means little wolf. Now do your job already." She left to conduct her test on Sakura. The priest tapped in a few commands to initiate his test on Li.
Li blinked. One minute, he and Sakura were walking through the gate. The next minute, he was back in Hong Kong with his family. "Meilin?! Mom...?" The woman looked at her son with clear disappointment written across her face. "How could you fail us? We have trained you ever since you were old enough to walk. We thought you were worthy of being a soldier and a cardcaptor. Clearly, those responsibilities were too much for you."
"You were weakened by that girl, Li. I thought you were stronger than that. You believe you are strong but in reality, you are another lovestruck fool," spat Meilin. Anger began to boil in Li's blood.
"A true soldier can fight beyond thought, beyond fear and especially beyond mercy. I had hoped I had taught you better but what can I expect of someone like yourself? Perhaps we can start over...once we eliminate your chief weakness." The boy's mind began to race. 'What have they done to Sakura?'
A messenger stepped up and handed a scroll to the elderly woman. She opened it and smiled. "Now your mind should be clear of all distractions. Especially from the Clow mistress." In a fury, Li grabbed his sword and charged.
A flash of light appeared and Li was back in the hierarchy. Sakura was beside him, unconscious. Li opened his eyes and saw that a priest was holding him by his collar. The priest cast Li to the ground. "His soul is defective. We must scrap it."
Radiant shook her head. "If his soul is scrapped, we would be wasting purity. I expected better of you, Li Syaoran. Your love for the girl is strong. So strong that you would break one of the ten commandments to protect her." She started draining all of Li's purity from his soul. Finally she picked him up and sent him to another dimension.
The priest stood over and looked at where Li fell. "You decided to send him to Malbogia?" The archangel shrugged. "There are only four types of demons humans can become: Hellspawn, Werewolf, Vampire and Zombie. Of all of them, the Hellspawn suffers the most."
When Li awoke, he found himself different. Cold. Empty. He stumbled around the alley until he found a puddle. He stared at his reflection. The costume of a Hellspawn. The only difference between this one and the American Hellspawn (Al Simmons) is that Li's cape is green.
He still remembered everything. Radiant was not merciful enough to remove the pain. And now, he is doomed to walk the earth, knowing that he will never be able to find his cherry blossom again.
Am I good or what? If there are a ton of reviews, I might consider putting up a third and final sequel to this story.
