The Battle: Part 3, The Demon Within.
As the figure rose, Frozen Amp asked, "Red?"
In response, the figure held out his hand and a glowing ball of dark tainted flame appeared.
"Get down!" Asrail yelled and tackled Frozen Amp seconds before the flame evaporated the area where the master of the jewel had just been. Asrail said, "That is not Red, open your eyes!"
With that, Frozen Amp looked at RedFalcon again. He noticed a strange darkness around the blaster, and an unusual smell of brimstone in the air.
"Now do you see?" asked Asrail, who though blind could visualize the demonic power wrapped around the blaster. Ancient Blade yelled and charged the possessed man with more fury in his eyes than anyone had seen before. The demon looked up, apparently used to it's new bodily functions, raised his fist and made a wall of sickly green flame in front of the onrushing figure. Ancient Blade, still yelling, cut through the wall like a knife through butter. The demon behind RedFalcon hissed and drew a mix of darkness and flame around itself. Protected by the demonic shield, the demon threw a fireball and jumped to meet the holy figure.
Hissing, the demon spoke, "Ancient Blade, the Blade of Obsidian says hello." With that Blade roared with fury and struck at the figure. Dodging the blow, the demon struck with the mutated blade.
"Your fury dulls your blade." The fiend took a deep breath and blew it out as an intense green flame. Blade grabbed his cape and using it as a shield; he blocked the worst of the flame.
"You're disturbing my sleep." said an armor clad teenage boy from a corridor. "Go away, boy, or do you want to be fried?" said the demon. Blade chuckled.
"What's so funny, fool!" the demon spat at the now standing hero.
"You just made a big mistake." Blade said smiling.
"Permission to destroy the fool, sir!" asked the figure.
"You can, Sang." Blade said.
"Thank you, sir." With that he jumped into the center of the floor.
"So, Sang, what do you think you can do?"
Sang watched the demonic aura around the blaster and asked Asrail, "That's what needs to be destroyed, right?"
Asrail nodded. The devil laughed and the tainted green flame appeared in its hand again. Sang looked at the flame with derision.
"That's all you got? That's not even worth throwing, or is that the extent of your power?"
"Fool! I shall destroy you all!" The demon raised its arms and the green ball of flame grew into one of immense proportions.
Rising into the air the fiend yelled, "Let's see you sneer at this, wretch!" It began to throw the sphere when it blinked.
"Too slow." the demon wheeled, jut in time to meet the armored sole of the young hero's foot. The demon reeled and fell to the floor. Sang dropped to the floor and asked Asrail, "Will you get rid of the demon now?"
Grimacing Sang whispered, "Never mind, but go up to Red anyway." Asrail looked at the form and noticed the demonic aura around the hero still pulsating. Asrail walked towards the figure and the demon whirled and threw a ball of fire at the heroine.
Sang appeared in front of Asrail and blocked the flame with his leg and with the fire still wrapped around his leg jumped into the air and dove at the demonic aura. The demon screamed and tried to roll the body out of the way, but noticed a sheet of ice holding the body where it was. The attack hit and the demon screamed an immense unearthly wail, and its body began to glow and shafts of light tore through its form.
RedFalcon yelled and tore at his head. "Get out of my body!" the hero yelled through the demons aura. "Get out!" With that the flames surrounding the demon turned an eye blinding white and tore at the demon's aura.
The demon screamed into the air, "By Obsidian, I will be avenged!"
The light aura surrounding RedFalcon crushed the possessing demons aura. RedFalcon groaned once then sat up.
"Is the demon gone?" he asked Asrail.
"From this world, yes, but it has some small indefinite hold on the ghost world." "Blade, when I was looking into Red's mind, I saw that demon inside his mind. The demon had branded on his essence a gold star and surrounded by it 13 white stars. You know what this means right?"
"Yes, I do." Blade said. "It means, it's time for everyone to know." With that he sent out this message. "All Debtinators come to the base. Drop whatever you are doing and come." He spoke the last words with grim determination, "It's time for a counsel of war."
