A/N: Sorry for the wait everyone, I've been pretty busy these last couple of days, with school. But thankfully I've finished my work, so here is the chapter you've been waiting for.
P.S: In English we're learning about a short story and I've learned some new writing skills. I hope you like them. Have fun.
Jessy jumped back away from his brother and stood in his fighting stance. Jessy looked over his brother from head to toe, everything about him was as Jessy remembered him: the black hair, the blue eyes. Rob was exactly like Jessy in every way, but not now. Jessy knew that he was no longer the same as Rob, Jessy was now what he was raised to be: an animal, a tool to be used as his superiors saw fit.
"How? How can I fight him? Rob…my only brother." Jessy thought remembering all the time they spent together. They were closer then any brother could be, Jessy and Rob never fought each other for anything. But now that has changed, Jessy knew Rob wouldn't stop. Jessy was lost in his thought, he began to have flashbacks.
(Start of Flashbacks.)
"Come on Jessy, ask her out." A young teenaged boy said.
Jessy looked at him with a smile. "Geez Rob…you make it sound like I like her or something." Jessy said. "Sure you're not the one who likes her ya sly dog?" Jessy teased as a grin appeared on his face.
Rob sighed, and looked at the beautiful young lady. She had light brown hair that touched her back, dark brown eyes and her skin was a very light tan. She wore the school uniform the girls wore. It consisted of a white tank top, a blue mini skirt, black high tops and a red tie. The girl had such a great figure: she was mildly busty, but her uniform hugged every bit of her torso. Rob admired the sight of her as she talked and laughed with her friends. Jessy saw the look on his brother's face, and smiled. "She wouldn't go out with a guy like me, I'm useless when it comes to talking to girls." Rob said as a sad expression crossed his face.
"Really? Then why is she looking over here?" Jessy asked as he noticed the young girl looking over at the two brothers with a curious look. Rob looked up and smiled.
"Hey Riesa, what are you looking at?" a girl asked.
Riesa turned and looked at her friend. She had long hair, which was dyed a light blue, she had light blue eyes and wore the same school uniform Riesa wore. She was very beautiful and was a little shorter then Riesa. "Just those two boys over there. Who are they?" Riesa asked.
The girl looked at Jessy and Rob. "Well, what da you know. It's the Wolf brothers. Jessy and Rob Wolf." The girl answered as she smiled.
"Hey…twins." Another girl said. She looked exactly like the light blue haired girl, except she had light pink hair.
"Sky, Ember…let's go talk to them hey? They seem like nice guys." Riesa suggested and began walking in their direction.
"Don't look now but they're coming this way Robbie." Jessy said.
"I thought I told you not to call me that." Rob said, feeling irritated that Jessy called him by a name he hated.
"Oh whatever, just don't choke like last time. I'm not saving your ass again you know." Jessy said.
"Don't remind me." Rob said, as he remembered Jessy saving Rob after he couldn't talk to a girl before.
"Hey you two, what cha doing?" Sky asked.
"Nothing much, just getting some fresh air. How are you three doing today?" Jessy asked.
"Better now that we have some others to talk to." Ember said.
Riesa noticed that Rob was looking the other way from her and the two girls. "Hey, is something the matter?" Riesa asked Rob. Rob didn't move or answer. Jessy hit him over the head lightly.
"Hey…what was that for?" Rob asked as he rubbed his head and looked at Jessy.
"Come on bro, be nice and say hello to the lovely ladies." Jessy said. The three girls just smiled.
"Well my name's Riesa, this is Sky and that's Ember." Riesa said as she pointed at her two friends.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Jessy." Jessy said. Riesa looked at Rob, who only blushed before turning away. Jessy sighed and basically face palmed himself while shaking his head. "Please forgive my shy brother, he's not used to talking to attractive women." Jessy said with a grin. And caused all three girls to giggle.
(Flashback change.)
In a huge battle, swords clanged together and gunshots were filling the air. Bodies lay on the ground and blood surrounded their lifeless bodies. Thirty men with swords surrounded two teenaged men in camo attire with their swords at the ready.
"Well, this looks bad Jessy." Rob said not even looking at his brother.
"Hmph…come on man, you know damn well we can handle this." Jessy said as he smiled.
Rob sighed and smiled as well. "So…the usual plan then?" Rob asked with a smile.
"Come on boys, enough cowering." One of the men said.
"So…how long do you bet we'll be done Jessy?" Rob asked.
"I give it three minutes." Jessy said.
"Really?" Rob asked with a smile on his face.
"Hmph, you two really are stupid if you think you can win in three minutes." A man said.
Jessy looked at Rob. "Scratch that… two minutes." Jessy said.
"That's it, CHARGE!" a man yelled and all the men charged at Jessy and Rob. Jessy and Rob looked at each other and grinned at each other, before nodding and charged at the men.
(Flashback change.)
Rob received a punch to the stomach as two guys held his arms out wide and the third hit him again. Another guy had his arms crossed and was laughing evilly.
"HAHAHA, this is what you get for not handing over your money." The thug said. Suddenly the leader was knocked away from the group and was instantly unconscious.
"Wha…what the? How dare you do that to the boss." The man who was punching Rob said. Jessy turned to the unconscious thug leader and searched his jacket pocket, and pulled out a mobile phone, and began dialling a number.
"Hey, what are you doing?" one of the thugs that wee holding Rob said.
"Hi, I'm gonna need the police please, we're under the bridge near Yamcha street. And you may want to send some ambulances a well. How many? Well let's see. One…two…three. Yeah…better send three." Jessy said with a grin after pointing at the three thugs.
"Why you!" a thug said before they charged at Jessy. Jessy easily defeated the thugs due to his military training, and now stood over his mildly hurt brother.
"Why did you save me?" Rob asked as he took the hand Jessy was holding out to help him up.
"You're my brother, and we stick together…no matter what." Jessy said and winked at his brother with a smile.
(End of flashbacks.)
Jessy opened his eyes and blocked his brother's attack. "You shouldn't have betrayed us, brother." Rob said.
"Hmph…I'm not the traitor here, brother. Whatever happened to sticking together no matter what?" Jessy asked.
"I could ask you the same thing. Now die!" Rob yelled. Jessy's eyes opened wide as he saw Rob's sword release an electric blast, which caused Jessy to fly backwards through a tree.
Jessy's body had steam emanating from it, the blast was very hot and painful to Jessy. "What the hell was that?" Jessy thought. His head was spinning from the contact he received after he hit the tree. "Rob's not moving, why?" Jessy slowly got up to his feet. "Well…what it was, I have to make sure I don't get hit by it again." Jessy thought and cracked his neck from side to side. "Well, brother. It seems they gave you some new techniques to kill me. That is why you've come, is it not?" Jessy asked.
"It's my objective, kill you then come home." Rob simply said.
"Jessy's in trouble. But I shouldn't go charging it to the fight, Jessy would never forgive me if I did." Krystal thought as she sensed Jessy was in pain. Krystal did listen to Jessy and ran back to the village, but she was using her telepathy to sense Jess's progress just in case something went wrong.
"Lady Krystal, are you alright? We've just seen that lightning from the forest before you came out of the forest itself." A guard said.
"Where is Jessy?" Marcus asked, appearing out of nowhere.
"F…Father, Jessy is fighting. Someone from Jessy's home world has sent assassins to kill Jessy. And now he's confronting them." Krystal said in a panic. Marcus looked towards the forest and suddenly huge amounts of lightning shot into the sky.
The village was gasping and panic filled the hearts of the villagers. "I told you all, he was going to bring harm to our village." Caruso said. Krystal looked at Caruso, his hand was fixed somehow and he looked really pissed. "You shouldn't have mated with that animal." Caruso said to Krystal. Krystal slowly walked over to Caruso and stopped in front of him, she had no expression on her face as she looked up at Caruso. "What, are you finally taking…" Caruso was suddenly thrown to the floor and he coughed up blood.
Krystal stood in the same place she had stood in front of Caruso; only she had her fist in front of her and had her back to Caruso. She had deliberately punched Caruso with all her body weight and strength into the punch. "Krystal!" Sapphire yelled after she had seen her little girl break Caruso's jaw. (Good on her.) Sapphire walked over to her daughter and restrained her, as the guards helped Caruso up and walked him away. "What are you thinking dear?" Sapphire asked.
Krystal looked at her mother; Krystal had tears in her eyes. "I won't allow anyone to call MY Jessy an animal. He's a kind-hearted person; he's fighting to defend us all. Jessy wouldn't fight for blood; he'd fight for peace. Surely you can see that Mother?" Krystal asked.
Sapphire looked at her daughter with a smile. She had in deed read Jessy's mind when they were walking around the village together, and she has learned Jessy is not one who craves blood in battle. But: she also learned that Jessy would kill if angered correctly, or if he is left no other alternative. "Ok Krystal, I understand. As long as you believe Jessy is not the kind who kills for pleasure, but fights for peace: then I will stand by your decisions." Sapphire said as she hugged her daughter.
Krystal instantly returned the hug. "Thank you, Mother." Krystal said. Suddenly Krystal felt Jessy's painful cries of agony fill her head. "JESSY'S IN TROUBLE!" Krystal yelled as she pushed her mother away gently and ran towards the forest, only to have the guards restrain her. "LET ME GO! JESSY NEEDS ME!" Krystal begged.
"I'm sorry my Lady, but we can't allow you to get hurt. Please stay here." A guard said.
(Begin playing "Bodies, by Drowning pool.")
Jessy dodge numerous attacks from Rob, but to Jessy's surprise: he was hit by another electrical blast after Rob used 'Flash step' (An Archangel move that allows the user to travel at incredible speeds to either be used as a defensive or offensive strategy. Also very good for traveling long distances in a hurry.) To appear behind Jessy, and use an electrical blast. "Flash step huh? Tell me…when did you become an Archangel? And what class were you named?" Jessy asked.
"I am not going to explain myself to you, I don't have the patience nor the time." Rob said as he resumed his battle stance.
"Time? Why would he need time?" Jessy thought. "Hmm. He seems to be able to use the technique without charging it, but how? I have to pay closer attention to his every move, find an opening, then end this." Jessy thought. Jessy knew three things:
The technique was very dangerous, but how dangerous Jessy didn't know exactly.
He didn't know the limits to the technique or it's weaknesses, but the he will have to pay close attention to find them out.
And finally. Jessy knew that if he determines all of the weaknesses, muscle movement and the limits to the technique: Jessy would not be able to get hit by the technique anymore.
Jessy cracked his arms and back, and stretched his muscles a bit. Rob looked at Jessy and it looked like he was assessing what Jessy was doing.
"What are you doing Jessy?" Rob asked.
"Limbering up, otherwise I may pull something and then we won't be able to have fun." Jessy said with a smile.
"Not to worry…this will be over soon enough." Rob said, and disappeared.
"Flash step again huh? So predictable." Jessy thought, before blocking Rob's attack from behind. To Jessy's guess, Rob was going to use that technique again, ironically enough: he was right. Jessy used his own Flash step and as he dodged Rob's attack, he watched Rob's every move. Time seemed to slow down for Jessy as he used Flash step. What Jessy saw, shocked him: the electrical charge didn't come from the blade at all, it came down Rob's shoulder, travelled throughout his arm and through the blade of his sword. Since the sword was made out of silver: it conducted the electricity and amplified the electrical charge. Jessy reappeared away from Rob and watched as the electrical blast disappeared.
"It seems you dodged my attack. A mistake I won't make again." Rob said.
"That technique, isn't natural it came from Rob's body, but how exactly?" Jessy thought. "Well…if you think you're up to it, come and attack me." Jessy said.
Rob dashed towards Jessy. He was fast, just barely dodged the attack that came with Rob's dash towards him. "You can't just keep on the defensive." Rob said. "You have only a 24.3% chance of winning if you do." Rob blurted out."
"I don't care much for maths." Jessy said. "Damn, I only just dodged that last attack, he's fast…but that's nothing I can't match. I know I can't keep on the defensive for long, but I still need to learn more. I know." Jessy suddenly had a huge grin on his face.
"What's with that look?" Rob asked. "Don't tell me you plan on running away?" Rob said.
Jessy seethed his long sword. "Meep, Mepp." Jessy said before running off, leaving a trail of smoke behind him. (Lol, Jessy went roadrunner style.)
Rob used Flash step again and chased after Jessy. "You can't run forever!" Rob yelled as he slowly began to catch up to Jessy.
"I don't plan on running, I plan on leading… you into a trap that is." Jessy thought.
(Back at the village)
"I said Let me go!" Krystal yelled as she struggled against the four guards holding her down.
"I'm sorry my Lady, but we can not." A Guard said.
Suddenly a flash of lightning exploded really close to the village, and Jessy flew out of the forest, and landed in front of Krystal and the guards, Jessy looked up at Krystal and the guards while his back was on the ground. "Hi, mind moving to the left a couple of meters?" Jessy asked.
Slowly out of the forest, Rob walked out: shocking Krystal, Sapphire and Marcus. The same thought ran through their minds. "How? He's dead." All of them thought. Jessy got up to his feet, and noticed Rob was charging for him, Jessy also noticed that he was going to use a electrical blast again.
"Damn, if I move, they get hit. Guess I have no choice." Jessy thought. As Rob closed in Jessy closed his eyes, and took in a deep breath. "One." Jessy began counting for some reason. Rob ran closer. "Two." Jessy seemed like an idiot, standing there, with his eyes closed, and his swords not drawn, and Rob was at least a couple meters away and closed in within seconds. "THREE!" Jessy's eyes shot open and spun forward; his speed was faster then normal now. His hand grabbed his great sword and with one swing: Jessy sent his brother flying into trees. "Now, move. You're in the way." Jessy said to Krystal and the guards. They all nodded and moved a fair distance away from Jessy.
Jessy waited for Rob to show himself, Jessy was still very suspicious about his brother and wanted to deal with this. Jessy knew his stamina was depleting rapidly, no one knew it yet: but Jessy was really hurt. His vision was blurring, his head was pounding as if it had been hit with a baseball bat and survived it and he found it difficult to hold his great sword up, let alone even stand. Thankfully no one noticed.
Suddenly the trees Rob had broken as he flew through them, exploded and Rob shot into the air. As he flew towards Jessy, Jessy felt his heart, jump and hit his chest: as if it was going to just burst right out of it. Jessy tried to ignore the pain, but it was too great. He was having a heart attack; Jessy had his hand over his heart and grasped his chest. "N…No. Not now, I…I refuse…to accept this… I…I can't lose now. Come on…come on move, move darn you…MOVEEEEE!" Jessy thought as he huffed and puffed. He closed his eyes once more; he didn't want to see what was going to happen to him now. Jessy, had accepted defeat.
Krystal saw that Jessy was in pain and saw that Rob was almost at contact distance; soon Rob would kill Jessy.
Rob swung his sword with full might and time for Krystal seemed to slow down. Seconds, seemed like minutes, minutes seemed like hours. Krystal watched, helpless as the guards held her down, she watched as the blade of Rob's sword came crashing down. "NOOOOOOO!" Krystal screamed.
Jessy didn't feel anything now. The sounds of screaming, the winds, the air, everything just seemed to have stopped. Jessy slowly opened his left eye, and saw vey clearly. Jessy opened his other eye and gazed around at his new surroundings. He was now in some kind of room. It was dark, but the room itself was visible, as was earthing it housed. "Where am I? Am I dead?" Jessy asked as he turned around. Jessy started to feel sad, he realized what he had done now: Jessy had given up, and as he gave up, he died.
"Sweetie, wake up." A voice said.
"Huh? Who's there?" Jessy asked.
"Behind you." The voice said.
Jessy turned around and he almost fainted. Suddenly Jessy felt happiness overwhelm him. "M…Mom?" Jessy asked.
"Hello Jessy, my how you've grown my son." Jessy's mother said as she looked at him.
"Mom, I'm a Lupine, I'm no longer human." Jessy said.
"Lupine? What are you talking about Jessy, look at yourself." Jessy's mother said.
Jessy looked at himself and saw that his normal hands were back, Jessy quickly felt his face, only normal male facial hair was on his face, he looked behind him, only to find that his tail was no longer there. "I'm myself again." Jessy said.
"Yes you are my son, come. Let us go home." Jessy's mother said. Jessy smiled and began to follow his mother.
"Jessy. Wake up. Please wake up. Jessy don't leave me, please open your eyes!" Krystal's voice begged in Jessy's head. Jessy stopped and held his head in his hands.
"Is something the matter?" Jessy's mother asked.
Jessy looked up. "Mom, where exactly are we?" Jessy asked.
"Well, right now we're at the gate to the Nethierworld." Jessy's mother answered.
"Mom, but. I'm not ready to go. I still have a lot to do." Jessy said.
Jessy's mother smiled. "I know dear, but… do you really think you can win?" She asked.
Jessy thought for a moment. Then he smiled. "I don't think so." Jessy said. Jessy's mother smiled as well. "I know so." Jessy said, full of confidence. "I'm sorry Mom, but it's not my time. I promise I will come back to you one day, and when I do…we can talk about my life." Jessy said. Jessy's mother smiled.
"Be strong my son, and don't give in to your doubts." She said.
"Don't worry Mom…I won't anymore." Jessy said as he pulled out his great sword. Jessy's body began to change again, and he turned back to the Lupine Krystal loves. Jessy was now back in the real world, and heard Krystal's scream. Jessy's eyes shot open and he sidestepped to avoid the sword. "I'm not giving up now, I'm not going to give up on myself." Jessy said.
Krystal was so happy that Jessy was still alive, she decided to help him, by reading Rob's mind and finding out everything he was going to do. But to her surprise, she heard nothing. "How strange, I can't read his mind. Why can't I read his mind?" Krystal thought. Krystal tried again just in case, and still nothing. "This is strange, it's like he doesn't…" And that's when it hit her. "Jessy! He's not your brother! He has no mind!" Krystal yelled.
Jessy heard Krystal's words of warning. "What?" Jessy asked quietly. Jessy still dodged every attack Rob through, but as he did it, he attempted to read Rob's mind and when he failed, he began to think.
If He has no mind, then why is he moving?
How can he operate if he has no mind to tell his body what to do?
That's when it hit Jessy. "I wonder." Jessy said. As Rob swung his blade vertically up, Jessy sidestepped to the right and slashed Rob's side clean open. "I thought as much…a robot assassin brand." Jessy said. Rage started to fill Jessy, this time Matt has gone too far. The robot Rob jumped back and got into battle stance. "Do you know what happens, when I'm pissed?" Jessy asked coldly. "I really didn't want to use this skill, but since you've messed with the memory of my dearly departed brother…you're as good as dead!" Jessy yelled. Jessy's great sword began to glow a bright blue, and a blue aura surrounded Jessy.
"That's 'Heaven's rage'." Rob said. ('Heaven's rage' is a skill Jessy developed; it allows him to have immense strength and agility. The down side to using this though, is that Jessy is going to be sick after this.)
"If you're listening to this Matt. You're a fool to think that an Assassin robot could kill me. In the name of my brother…die." Jessy said. Jessy disappeared right before the robot Rob moved, and reappeared behind robot Rob. Suddenly Robot Rob's torso, fell to the floor while it's lower half stayed standing. Slowly the aura around Jessy faded and Jessy drove his great sword through the head of the robot, forever silencing it. "Hmph, and that's that." Jessy said. Jessy looked over at Krystal who was running towards Jessy happy. Jessy's vision started to blur, and he slowly fell forward. Luckily for him: Krystal caught him before he hit the ground and kneelt down and placed Jessy's head on her lap. "Oh, hello." Jessy said.
Krystal was not amused and flicked Jessy on the snout. "Never scare me like that again." Krystal said as tears filled her eyes.
"I'm sorry, please don't cry, I'll be just fine." Jessy said.
"But, look at you, you're hurt badly." Krystal said sadly.
Jessy smiled and wiped a tear away from her face. "I'm sure it's nothing you can't fix Krystal. And besides, I'm a pretty tough guy, I think I just displayed that in front of everyone." Jessy said. Krystal smiled at Jessy.
Jessy slowly tried to get up, but Krystal grabbed his shoulders and pulled him back so he would lay down. "Just rest here for awhile Jessy. I'll heal you a bit now and once you can walk properly, we'll go to your home and I'll heal the rest there." Krystal said kindly.
"Ok." Jessy said.
A/N: well another happy ending for Jessy. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Please leave reviews about this chapter so I can get better in some areas. Thank you.
