"Why Danis? Why do you attack you own brother?"
Danis laughs that same laugh, "Well why the hell not?" He attacks again with no more success than the last one. Nodoka screams to me "Neku! Help me!" She wails and crys. Grrr I thought I had this. I had prepared to do this alone so no one would get hurt. Why didn't I expect this sort of thing to happen. I love my brother, i really do, but I'm not gonna stand around and let him hurt someone I like, someone I love!
"Discerpo vinculum!"
I cut Danis's arm clean off, the one that holds Nodoka. As she falls, I turn around and direct my arm in her direction.
"Habeo quod servo intus lux lucis!"
A bubble of light shot out of my arm and encased Nodoka within it. She floated to the ground, where the bubble popped. Nodoka looked at me and gave a weak "Neku..." then she passed out. I smile a bit. At least Nodoka is out of trouble now. The light surrounding her will protect her from my brother. I turn to my brother and give him a very dark look.
"How dare you hurt her! Have you lost all shame since become this monster?"
The Daemon that is Danis laughed, "I have lost many things, brother! Many, many things! My life, my family, my sanity and whatever light that remains in my heart is leaving me as we speak!" I start to pity him. I know he has hurt alot of people but he can't truly control it. All this is in my head, but I can't let it leave my head and express it. Some things people should never never show on their face to a person who could kill you in an instant, even if they were you're brother. My face is fixed on the same dark look.
"I can understand that you suffer, but who did this to you?"
Danis hesitated. I sense tendrils near my back, so I slice them with the sword while he is distracted. the sword goes through two or three of the five that were there. Danis winces, "Grr, that was my fault. But all this was my fault. I did this to myself, and now I'm paying the price!" Danis attacks with the remaining tendrils. I parry one but get hit with the other in the shoulder. Blood starts to flow from the wound, but I pay it no heed. How could he do this to himself? What is he paying the price for? I vocalise these thoughts. Danis stops attacking and says while reminiscing, "Remember how I left the town for training? Well you probably couldn't since you were only two, but I found a master that could make me more powerful and show me different styles of magic, most I had never seen nor heard of before. My master taught me a technique that gave me unbelievable power but at a cost. It was called magica erebea." I relaxed a bit in thought. I have never heard of a technique called magica erebea before. Danis must have noticed my change in thought because he smiled, it was a horrible smile filled with sharp denomic teeth, and explained "Remember the night you lost your family and I lost everything? Just before I faced the demon army, I used it, asborbing my powerful fire spell and gaining it's attributes. That is what magica erebea is, if you use it to much, the dark magic infects you like a poison, slowly corrupting you until you end up like ME!" Danis come at me with fresh attacks while I'm distracted with all this new information. Every single one of his attacks hit its mark. I hit the ground as a bloody mess, but I am still alive. Thank god Nodoka didn't see this. I struggle to my feet and pick up the sword.
"You choose to fight me. Choose to kill me, but you shall FAIL! Lux lucis of deus!"
Light comes from everywhere around me. The very light of the room leaves its place and only surrounds me. The cavern is all darkness exept for me. I have lost control of my body now, only my thoughts are left to me and I am looking at myself as if I'm in third person view. My body gains armour of pure light and sprouts wings. My brother looks on in shock, trust me when I say he isn't the only one. My body lifts one arm in Danis's direction.
"Deus consensio telum!"
A massive spear of light appears above my body and flys straight through my brother's body. He stumbles but does not fall. I return to my body. I am starting to black out. "Don't worry brother, I'll come to see you again! Then we can have a nice brotherly chat!" He spits before he teleports out of the cavern. The light returns to everywhere. I smile as I watch Nodoka start to get up. Amazing how she could still be be in a fainted state through that. Before I blackout though, I manage to get out a few words.
"Don't worry brother, I'll enjoy our next meeting. But next time I'll wear some clothes so I don't greet you naked again"
I blackout as a naked Nodoka runs to my bloodied body.
Author's Space:
Don't worry people there are more chapters. I know it sounds like he just died but yeah he just blacked out from the fight. And yes if you don't remember they both didn't waste time getting dressed before heading to meet Danis XP. I'm also going to release a lexicon of all the spells on my deviant art soon, so when its up i'll put on my deviant art account name.
