This power was amazing. I felt like nothing is impossible. Sonic just looked at me, and I knew what that meant. I nodded and headed left. He and Shadow did the same, and Shadow headed /"Meph, up!" Sonic shouted, and Mephiles jumped up, and acted as death from /Shadow used his chaos gun, I did the same with my Psychokinesis, extinguishing the dark flames in Sonic's way, while also holding Haxius at /Mephiles struck him from above, but went right trough him. Sonic reached him, and light started emitting from his legs, forming something like a chainsaw's chain around his feet. He attacked Haxius, and left a huge cut on his shadow /Mephiles tried again with his christaline spikes, but they went right trough once /Shadow used his chaos spear, and I noticed something was different. It was shining /My psychokinesis was also different than it's used to be. It was golden. I tried to shape it around my hand like a sword, and I was successful. 'Heh, a new way to use my powers.'br /I ran up to Haxius, a bit surprising Sonic and Shadow in the process. I used to be a ranged attacker, and never really liked to get into close /When I reached the striking distance, I didn't hesitated on striking down the renegade /His body has split int two. What surprised all of us, was his body got consumed by black flames, leaving only ashes /"What was that?" Sonic asked, stepping /"Back, you fools! This is not over!" Mephiles shouted in /"What?" I asked. It was too late. In that moment, a new phoenix struck from the ashes, and hit me /I fell back in /"That's a phoenix. In the moment of it's death it burns into ashes, and get revived from them."br /"How can we kill a creature whats constantly revives itself?" Shadow askedbr /"We can't." Mephiles /"Let me rephrase: How can we win?" I askedbr /"If we can contain it." He said, and they all looked at /"I think I have an even better idea."br /"What?" Agony asked, finally arriving with her /"I create a barrier around it with only a small hole and we all send our best attack into it. After that's done, I close down the barrier, and we can use our power to seal it."br /"Great idea!" Rage said "Let's do it!"br /I did as I told, pulling up a barrier around the phoenix /"DO IT!" I shoutedbr /Shadow started with his enhanced chaos spear, followed by Agony's whirlwind, Rage's firestorm, Chaos's flood and Despair's rock spears. Sonic, Mephiles and David in the meantime started the sealing, while I closed the barrier around the /"THIS IS ONLY THE BEGinni-" He shouted, but his voice got slowly muffled by the closing barricade, until neither of us could hear it /Soon a golden Christaline barricade appeared around mine, shortly followed by a golden aura. I also noticed that the flames and explosions inside got slower and slower, until they frozen in /The christalin barricade closed down around the dark phoenix, and we could only saw a golden /"Well, he is locked away in both space AND time." David /"Yeah..." I said, barely believing it /"You really think that was enough?" Mobius' voice came down from the skies. "That was only his secondary body. His spirit is still fighting us. He will eventually return in another body." said the god of lifebr /"Can we even defeat him?" Rage /"One by one? No. Your powers are originally one. You have to unite them once again if you ever wish to even stand a chance."br /"Like how we did?" Sonic askedbr /"You just scratched the surface of those powers. You don't know what it's capable of."br /"Please, enlighten us..." Rage said /"Creating a whole universe is nothing. Is that enlightening enough?" Mobius /"All right, I'm listening..." Rage said, ultimately /"This power is not meant to be in mortal hands. It's the power of the TITANS. Let's create a new Titan."br /"But... how?" I asked, and I think I am right to ask /"You? You can't. But if you surrender your powers, and unite them as one..."br /"But David will die without it." Sonic said, looking at our /"I know. But even I can't save him. He only have minutes left anyway." Mobius said. His voice was cold. Not eve /"I refuse to believe it, brother" Mephiles /"Believe what you want."br /"Guys, it's all right." David said with a smile. "I lived long enough."br /"What? But you're-"br /"No buts, no butts. I am not an ass. Only a badass." He said jokingly. "Believe me, that's enough. Even I can feel I'm closing to the ends of my power."br /"But... you will die."br /"Hey, that's what I got, and I'm happy with it." He said, and smiled. It wasn't a fake smile. Not at all. It came from his /"All right then." Shadow saidbr /"What? You wanna let him die?" Sonic askedbr /"And what can we do against it?" Shadow asked, shouting at Sonic. "We can not save his life. We can only give a meaning to it, and I will NEVER let his death be meaningless."br /"You're... you're right." Sonic said with tears in his /"All right, then." David said, and we all stood in a circle. "let's do it."br /We all released our powers, and united it, in the middle of the circle. When it was one orb, it flew /"Thank you. With our new brother, we finally have a fighting chance." Mabius said, and his voice /br /"So... we won?" Sonic asked, but no answer /"I think..." David said weakly. He was laying on the /"Should we?" Sonic asked, and we all nodded. We went to him, surrounding /"Hey, I'm okay with it." He saidbr /"No you don't." an unknown voice said from above. "You gave me life. I give it back to you is the least I can do." the voice said, and David got surrounded by light. When it disappeared, he was all right, and standing once /"Now what?" We /"Well, I think a Titan really is more powerful than the gods..." Sonic said /"And I think it was cool to have powers. Even for a short time." David saidbr /"What are you talking about?" I asked, quite /"All my powers came from that titan. Now that it's not in me anymore, I can't do this..." He said, but in the next minute he was nowhere to be /"Or maybe I can..." He said in a surprised tone from behind /"Well then, See you later." I /"See ya!" He said, and we all waved good bye, going /br /Returning home was bittersweet. On one hand, we defeated Haxius, saved David's life and so on. In the other hand, however we will not see him for quite some / I think I'm not the only one who's going to miss /"So... what now?" Sonic /"Sonic, I'm dead tired. Let's call the day, and do stuff tomorrow." I /"Hey guys, you're back!" Blaze waited in front of the house for us. "The others went to pass the time until you guys return. None of us could just sit and wait." She saidbr /"And you?" I asked my burning angelbr /"Well, I wanted, but too much excitement would not do too much good in my condition." She said, looking at me /"What condition? Are you sick?" I asked /"Silver, I've got great news. You're going to be a father!" And the world started spinning around /"WHAT? THAT'S GREAT!" I said, hugging her /But this is a story for later.../p
