(The Ishioka Residence)
The Ishiokas were all seated around the dinner table, including Farore. Farore Ishioka, even though she had the appearance of a 15-year-old-girl was actually 26 years old. She lived on her own but occasionally visited her parents and younger siblings. This was one of those days she visited her parents.
"So where did Lynken go tonight?" Farore asked curiously.
"He went to some party." Mr. Ishioka said. Suddenly, they all felt an energy surge in the underworld.
"This energy…" Saria said.
"It's Lynken! And it's coming from the underworld!" Mrs. Ishioka said.
'Son of a bitch. Lynken went to a devil's party in the underworld. He never told me that.' Mr. Ishioka thought.
"What's nii-san doing?!" Saria asked.
(Back in the Underworld)
"Ugh…" Zelda groaned as she opened her eyes. She got up and saw she was in some sort of prison cell. There were black bars keeping her in her cell. Zelda got up and walked to the bars. She touched them and they immediately electrocuted her and she fell on her butt.
"Ow! What the…" Zelda got up again and charged a little golden blast in her hand. She shot it at the bars but it had no effect.
"Well look who's up." a voice said. Zelda looked and she saw two women standing before her. One had blue hair and a zweihander strapped to her back. The other was dressed in a mix or japanese and european armor and had a sword strapped at her side.
"Where am I? And why can't I get out?" Zelda asked. The two girls both laughed maliciously.
"You're in the dungeon of the Phenex Mansion." The armored girl said.
"And you can't get out of this cell is because the serum Mira injected you with weakens you greatly." The zweihander girl added.
"Also, your little boyfriend is going to die."
"What do you mean?!" Zelda shouted.
"Riser-sama is going to annihilate him. The bastard deserves it for standing up to the House of Phenex." The armored girl said. The next thing the two women heard shocked them both. Zelda started to laugh.
"Oh man. You think that chicken can actually 'annihilate' Lynken? If you think that then you're as dumb as a rock." Zelda said.
"That's preposterous! Riser-sama-" before anything else could be said, there was a big rumble which shook the entire dungeon.
"What the?!" the women couldn't comprehend what was going on. Zelda smirked.
'Go get'em Lynken.' she said in her head.
(Back with Lynken)
"AAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!" Lynken shouted as the flames surrounding him grew bigger.
"W-What is this?!" Riser shouted fearfully. And then there was a bright flash. When it died down, the flames surrounding Lynken had also went out, and Lynken had changed form. Lynken now had white hair, glowing eyes that lacked pupils, and blue and red facial markings around his forehead and eyes. His outfit consisted of a floppy white hat, white tunic with armor that had a crescent moon and a triangle decorating it, armored gauntlets, black pants, and brown boots. Lynken looked at Riser with his pupiless eyes and Riser had a look of pure fear.
"Riser Phenex." Lynken's voice sounded deeper and had an echo. "You're a dead man."
(With co.)
"What the hell?!" Ryuma shouted.
"What happened to Lynken?!" Tashigi added.
"The Fierce Deity." Assassin said. Ryuma and Tashigi looked at him.
"The ferocious what-now?" Tashigi asked.
"The Fierce Deity. A legendary warrior that lived centuries ago." Assassin explained.
"If the warrior existed thousands of years ago how is Lynken the Fierce Deity?!" Ryuma asked and shouted.
"Two things. 1, I know you're surprised and confused but try not to shout and 2, I don't know. Maybe he can tap into the warrior's power somehow." Assassin theorized.
(Back to Lynken)
"The Fierce Deity?!" Riser shouted. "That warrior was nothing more than a myth! A fantasy! A-"
Before Riser could finish that Lynken rushed at Riser and slammed his fist into him and sent him flying into a wall.
"Myths are just stories that have been forgotten." Lynken said. He walked over to Riser and lifted him by his hair.
"You are despicable creature. You must be purged from the world." Lynken said as he punched Riser in the stomach and threw him into the air. Riser stopped himself with his wings. He looked down at Lynken angrily.
"I refuse to be brought down by scum like you!" Riser shouted as he launched a barrage of fireballs at Lynken. After Riser stopped all that was left was fire. Riser smirked, thinking he had won.
"The only scum here is you." Lynken said as he appeared behind Riser. Lynken then backhanded Riser into the ground. Riser was moving too fast to stop himself and he hit the ground hard. Riser got up from the ground and glared angrily at Lynken who was just floating in the air. Lynken disappeared and then reappeared in front of Riser. Riser coated his hand in flames and attempted to punch Lynken. The attempt was futile as Lynken was able to stop the fist with his hand.
"Pathetic. Out of all the opponents I've faced, you are the weakest. You're not even giving me a challenge." Lynken said disappointingly. Lynken then head-butted Riser and sent him skidding back a few yards. RIser held his forehead which was now bleeding.
(Back with co.)
"Onii-sama!" Ravel cried. She snapped her fingers and devil guards immediately appeared.
"Ravel-sama, your orders?" One of them asked.
"Get in there and help Onii-sama!" She ordered. The soldiers nodded in response, but before they could do anything some of the guards were cut down. The remaining ones jumped into battle stances. Standing before them was Ryuma and Tashigi who were armed with their swords.
"Not happening bitch!" Ryuma shouted and pointed one of his swords at Ravel.
"You brother brought this upon himself! We're not letting you interfere with Lynken's fight!" Tashigi announced. The guards charged at the two swordsman.
"No! Don't focus on them!" Ravel shouted angrily but to no avail as the guards were too busy with Ryuma and Tashigi.
(Back with Lynken)
"GAAAHHH!" Riser shouted as launched a flurry of flame coated punches. Lynken was dodging all of them with ease. Riser stopped with the flurry and charged at Lynken with a flame coated fist and slugged Lynken across his face. Lynken's face wretched to the side and Riser smirked, thinking he had got him. However, Lynken turned back without a scratch on his face.
"Wow. I saw that punch coming from a mile away but I thought it'd be pathetic." Lynken taunted. Riser backed up a few feet, fearfully.
"Alright, I'm done playing with you. Now…" Lynken's aura flared up. "Now it's time for you to pay for killing my girlfriend you jackass! Helix Smasher!"
Lynken held out his hand to the side. A sword materialized from the aura surrounding him. The sword that was now formed was a claymore sword with a blade in the shape of a double helix.
"Fine! You want a swordfight? I'll give you one!" Riser said as swords made of fire materialized around him. Riser snapped his fingers and the blades were launched towards Lynken. Lynken raised his blade and slashed quickly and destroyed the blades. He charged at Riser, destroying more blades that came at him. When he got close to him, Lynken slashed at him, cutting Riser and making a bloody gash on Riser' chest. Riser smirked arrogantly.
"This wound…" He said. His wound started to spurt out blood and Riser coughed up blood. "Gah! This is wound isn't healing! Why isn't it healing?!"
"I disabled you're regenerative ability. Now you're just a flaming turkey." Lynken said. Riser growled and flew into the air.
"No no no no! This can't be happening to me! I can't be brought down by some weakling like you!" Riser said as he raised his hands and formed a giant fireball the size of a four story building. Lynken raised his double helix sword and a white light enveloped the blade.
"DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE, JUST DIE!" Riser shouted as he threw the fireball at Lynken. Lynken jumped into the air and charged head on at the fireball. With one swift movement, Lynken slashed the entire fireball into oblivion.
"Phenex, when you fall, don't rise again." Lynken said as he stabbed Riser with the Helix Smasher. The blade went through Riser and the tip of blade showed from his back. Riser coughed up a lot of blood.
"Im...possible." Riser uttered. Lynken removed his sword from Riser and the latter fell to the ground like a stone. Lynken floated downwards. When he reached the ground, he looked at Riser, who was lying on the ground unconscious, and scowled.
"He's still alive." Lynken groaned. He raised his sword, preparing to deliver the final blow.
"STOP!" a voice cried out. Lynken looked and saw Ravel fly in and come in between him and Riser, her arms spread out.
"Move, girl. You may be the youngest and only daughter of the Phenex Household, but I will not hesitate to spill your blood on the floor." Lynken said angrily as he held the blade of the sword to Ravel's neck. Ravel trembled at its touch but nonetheless stood her ground.
"Onii-sama didn't kill your friend!' Ravel shouted. Lynken's face then went to look of astonishment then to look of anger.
"Lying will not help you." Lynken said.
"No! I'm serious! She's not dead!" Ravel said. Lynken looked at her face and he could tell she wasn't lying. He lowered his sword.
"Alright then take me to her." Lynken said.
(Phenex Mansion Dungeon)
Ravel lead Lynken, who was still in Fierce Deity mode, through the torch-lit dungeon. Lynken pressed the blade of the Helix Smasher against Ravel's neck for reassurance.
"You're sure she's alive and you're not leading me into a trap?" Lynken asked. Ravel shook her head fearfully. Ravel brought him to the cell where the two women were guarding Zelda's cell.
"Siris. Carlamine. Stand down." Ravel said. The two women look confused.
"Why? Riser-sama hasn't defeated the green-haired bastard." Carlamine said.
"Onii-sama has lost the fight to this one over here." Ravel said. Carlamine and Siris widened their eyes in astonishment.
"That's impossible!" Siris shouted. Lynken pushed the two women aside and walked over to the cage where Zelda was. Zelda looked at him with confusion.
'He looks familiar…' she thought to herself as Lynken walked up to the bars. Using his sword, he slashed a square hole in the bars and entered the cell. He then turned back into his regular form, tears were in his eyes.
"Lynken!" she shouted happily. Lynken immediately pulled Zelda into a hug, his tears were streaming down her shoulders.
"Whoa, Lynken. Why are you crying?" She asked confused.
"I thought I lost you." Lynken said. They broke from their hug and Zelda looked even more confused.
"What are you talking about?" Zelda asked curiously. Lynen proceeded to explain what had happened, how Riser had Zelda 'executed' in front of him and how Lynken had powered up to kick his sorry ass. Zelda looked shocked when he was done. She then connected her lips with him. Lynken felt as if he hadn't felt her lips in a long time. When she was done she gave him her cheery smile that made him lover her.
"You'll never lose me. I'll be with you til the end of time." Zelda said. Lynken smiled and they kissed again. They walked out of the dungeon together, with Lynken's arm around Zelda's shoulder and Zelda's head resting on Lynken's shoulder.
I always like writing the scene where Riser's gets his ass kicked! And thank you for reading the chapter and stay tuned! Don't forget to read & review!
