Hey! So I had a little help with this chapter! VerditheTrex gave me this fantastic idea! I'll indicate the idea with this, * before and after the idea! THANKS VERDI!
"Moren!" Tam growled as he stepped forward but Moren clicked his tongue "I may have not meant to kill Biana but I will take great pleasure in killing you!" he said with a glare and Tam didn't back down but he didn't move again either. Fitz still looked liked he didn't want to be there but Sophie trained her eyes on Fitz "How could you Fitz!?" she yelled and he shrunk a little "I...YOU SHOULD BE WITH ME!" he yelled with tears and Moren rolled his eyes in annoyance. Fitz took a step away from Moren but Sophie didn't care whether or not he was with him, he betrayed them all and so did Marella "Anyway...I think I want to kill silver hair over here!" Moren said with a grin as he looked at Tam with evil burning in his eyes.
"Not so fast!" a voice rang out to their side.
They all turned and standing there were the leaders of the Black Swan, Prentice, Wylie, Stina, Jensi, Dex, Edaline, Della, Alden, and Linh. All of them looked ready to kill Moren who cowered in fear "Oh no! The Black Swan! Whatever shall I do?!" Moren yelled as he backed up towards the shore, "Okay you win! tell you what? You want to bring the Neverseen down...then you'll have to kill them all!" he said with a very dark and evil grin. Suddenly the ocean rumbled and the water began to rise, then it parted and a full fledged army revealed itself underneath the ocean and they all marched onto the shore with their weapons at the ready.
Everyone backed up at the mere size of the army but then Moren raised his hand "This is not the time and the place, this is just a fraction of my army! I will unleash it when I want to kill the ogre or goblin armies. I don't need one to kill you people!" he said with a laugh and waved his hand, the army dissipated into steam, but then the most unexpected thing happened. Jensi walked out and stood in between the fighters of good and Moren Slade who actually looked at a loss for words "Uhhhhh what are you doing kid?" he asked genuinely confused and Jensi stood up straight "One on one fight! If you win you can kill me, but if you lose no one dies and you leave!" he yelled and Sophie was astonished at his bravery.
Moren stood there for a few seconds before falling on the ground and fell into a fit of laughter "Oh my god! This is great! I need a minute, tell you what kid I'll play along!" he said as he got up and wiped the tears out of his eyes. Moren stepped out onto the field and Ruy raised a force field around them so no one interfered, "You know pipsqueak I don't think you understand who you are dealing with here!" Moren said as he took off his cape and Jensi did the same "I'm not a pipsqueak!" Jensi said and Moren chuckled again "I've killed younger for fun! You are just one little kid! what can you do?!" Moren said laughing again and Jensi looked down "You're right. I am just one kid." he said and Moren laughed even harder before igniting his hands.
*"But why fight one when you can fight five?!" Jensi yelled and then his form started to shake and then it looked like he was almost vibrating, Moren extinguished his hands and looked at Fitz and Ruy with a confused look. They gave the same look clearly as baffled as he was, Moren looked back and then Jensi seemed to almost vibrate when suddenly the light seemed to bend and Moren got a splitting headache from the sudden feeling. When looked up he actually looked both confused and terrified, standing front of him were five Jensi's all the exact same, exact same hair, exact same eyes, and exact same look of determination on their faces! Moren looked dumbstruck for he finally spoke "Okay...I really didn't see that coming. Oh well, more for me to kill!" he said with an evil grin.
Moren lit his hands and lobbed a fireball at one of the Jensi's and the fireball collided with him but then he exploded into light and the other four Jens's charged Moren. He started backing up as he threw another fireball at a Jensi but it exploded into light again, the remaining three tackled Moren and they started punching and beating up Moren "Argh! You are so nimble! I'll burn you from the inside out!" Moren screamed as he grabbed another Jensi and lit him on fire and punted him across the field, and then it exploded into light. Moren turned to the other two "Fifty fifty shot here!" Moren said laughing as they two Jensi's nodded at each other and then split up in opposite directions "Oh I love it when they run!" Moren said and bolted after the Jensi on the left throwing fireball after fireball, which he kept dodging or jumping over.
Moren caught up and grabbed Jensi and they were at the edge of the force field, Sophie and her friends were only twenty feet away watching with fear that Jensi might get killed. Moren laughed crazily as he grabbed Jensi's head and slammed it repeatedly into the force field "Told ya pipsqueak!" he said as he slammed his head in as hard as he could. Jensi exploded into light and Moren caught his breath "Wrong one" he mumbled and he heard footsteps behind him, he turned just in time for the real Jensi to jump and bring his knee right into Morens face. The force Jensi shot into Moren slammed him into the force field and Jensi created three more copies and they held Moren against the force field that was clearly hurting him "Give up yet?!" Jensi yelled and Moren looked at him with a glare.*
"FINE! I GIVE UP!" Moren yelled loudly and the three Jensi's vanished in an instant and Moren fell to the ground as the force field disappeared as well. Everyone ran to Jensi and cheered but Alden pushed through "Jensi...do you realize what your ability is?! It is the rarest ability ever! We all thought it was a legend because their is no record of someone manifesting it! Jensi, you are a Splitter!" Alden said proudly as he patted him on the back. Jensi gave a large grin as Sophie hugged him "You beat Moren! You saved our lives!" she said and gave him a kiss on the cheek, he blushed a deep red as his grin got wider "Wait so a Splitter can make copies of themselves?" Tam asked and Alden nodded "Out of pure light! And I can't even begin to guess what other powers this ability gives you!" he said with a smile.
Ruy and Fitz ran over and helped Moren up but he pushed them off "Beaten by a toddler?! I don't fucking think so!" Moren yelled as he lit his hands "But you promised!" Fitz pleaded and Moren glared at him "I lied you idiot!" Moren said and turned back to the crowd. Everyone was so engrossed with Jensi's victory that the only one that saw Moren aiming at Sophie...
Was Grady.
Moren yelled as he shot a powerful jet of fire right towards Sophie and she turned just in time for Grady to jump in front of her. The fire went right through Gradys stomach and he groaned as he fell to the ground "Are you insane?!" Fitz screamed and Moren grabbed him by the throat "You want Sophie?! You gotta make her vulnerable! LET'S GO!" Moren yelled and they leaped away a second later. Everyone crowded around Grady as he clutched he wound in pain "No! Dad! Please don't die!" Sophie said with tears in her eyes, Edaline ran up and wrapped her arms around Sophie and Grady too who groaned in pain. Grady lifted his hands and grabbed both Edalines and Sophies, then he leaned over and kissed them both "I love you both with everything I have...At least this time...I was able...to save my daughter." he said as his breathing began to slow. Grady looked over at Keefe and motioned him closer, when he did he grabbed Keefe by his shirt collar and pulled him down "Don't let her go...Don't...EVER...let her...go" Grady said weakly before his grip went slack and his breathing stopped.
Grady was gone.
