The Tale Of Three Brothers
Chapter 19.2: New Pork City! (Claus and Kin)
Suddenly in a empty back alley of the city Claus and Kin appeared from a big bright ball of light.
"… We're already here …?"
"Of course Claus, the way I use PK teleport makes it almost instantenous instead of that dumb way of just running your way to a place, aaaaaannd as we're here before Lucas and the others we can get the plan started" Surprinsingly Kin looked very excited and it was kind of refreshing for Claus to see his little brother acting as he used to before all of this had happened.
Kin seemed to realize how he was acting and returned to his dead cold self "We need to get to the Empire Porky Building and find Fassad" the two began headed towards the street but a idea popped on Claus's head.
"Very well, allow me, The Commander of the Pigmasks to guide you to Sir Fassad" Claus said on a supperior tone of voice while he gave a grin.
"Don't … do that ever again … please … I don't want to see you as a Commander for a long, and I mean LONG time … forever if possible …" Claus's grin broke as Kin didn't took the joke harshly.
The two got out of the alley and began walking down the main road seeing alot of people, most of the people on the city were recognized by the twins since they were from Tazmily but they didn't talk to them as they were focused on getting their quest to an end or rather Kin was focused and was pulling Claus to the Empire Porky Building to finish their plan as soon as possible but ... that had to wait seeing as there was a giant hole that separated the entrace of the building from the main road.
"What happened here?!" Claus said out loud startling one of the Pigmaks Captains that stood there keeping everyone calm.
"Oh my Pork, you scared me, you sounded like our commander" both froze as their cover might've been blown up.
"But the commander has been gone for quite a while and if he were to return he wouldn't speak to a low ranking Pigmask like me" Claus internally sighed but same can't be said for Kin as his looked like he had fainted ... while he was standing and had both eyes opened.
"So I'm guessing you're headed to Empire Porky Building … sorry to say that, it won't be possible to access the building, our scientists kinda dropped a small bomb here accidentaly so we have to do repairs, sorry for the inconvenience, but at the speed we're working the building should be accessible in about, um, two hours."
The Captain then left the two as he had to go help the other Pigmasks to keep people away from the repairs.
"Sooooo … What now?" hearing Cluas's voice made Kin snap out of that state.
"Uh, what ... Um ... I don't know?" Insecurity began growing inside of Kin as their plan had already been delayed.
If a delay happened that soon in their plan then there was no way they would succeed.
Kin began replaying his last time on New Pork City, as he attempted to take out the Pigmasks but failed because of seeing Claus working for the enemy.
Those scenes he played in his head made him fall into a pit of despair, as a deep strong primal fear he had repressed on the deepest corner inside of him made his way to the surface, making him imagine all of the possible failed outcomes.
How would we fail, how would we get captured
"K..."
how would we get hurt
"...n"
Who will get hurt, will we die,
"...in"
Who might die, will we actually find the location of the Needle or will I make Claus relive all of those awfu-
"KIN!"
"AAHHHH!" his scream caught the attention of most of the passing people making Kin start to blush.
"Wow ... what was that?" Kin glared at Claus who was obviously concerned
"Why did you do that Claus, you scared me"
The fact that Claus actually managed to scare him made him grow even more concerned
"You ... didn't look good, I didn't want to have you like that"
"Oh ... Sorry, I was just lost iin my own thoughts ... so what now?" Claus was about to suggest something but a growl that came from Kin's belly cut him off.
That made Kin blush even stronger making Claus try his best not to laugh.
"So *growl* what were you *growl* going to say *growl" each time he stopped talking his stomach growled.
Claus had to face away from his brother as he found the scene too funny and tears from holding his laughter were starting to form.
"Claus be serious, what now?" the ginger began to calm down and looked back at his brother.
The exact moment Claus opened his mouth Kin's stomach growled once again but louder, making burst out laughing.
"This isn't funny *growl*" if Kin was able to handle being embarrassed before he couldn't now.
"Hahaha ... I'm sorry but ... you acted so serious all the time ... its so funny to see you ... break out from that seriousness" Claus responded in between breaths.
It took him a few seconds to stop laughing and gaining his composure.
"Were do we go? *growl*"
"We can try the restaurant" he said while having his face away from his brother.
"Oh wait, we can't, we don't have any DP ... So sorry for putting the idea on your head" He dropped his head realizing that his only idea might've only frustrated his brother, he wasn't joking around that time.
"Tell me where the restaurant is and meet me there" Claus had a odd look but did as his younger brother said then he went ahead and began waiting for him at the entrance of 'Beauty and Tasty'.
Time began to pass and Claus began growing impatient, twenty minutes had passed, and even so, the restaurant wasn't difficult to find, even if coming to it from the farthest place in the city it would only take about fifteen minutes at max.
"Hey" he looked to where the voice came from and saw Kin standing there with a big smile.
"Where have you been, you took quite a bit to get here, and what're we even doing if we don't have money to eat here?"
"Oh … I don't think money will be any problem" He reached for his backpack and took a bag with fifty thousand DP.
"Holy Omeletes ... Kin … where did you find this …"
"Oh … lets just say … a Major won't be as heavy when he goes to check his weight, ehehe"
"You stole this!" the red haired shouted but luckily the street was empty for the time being.
"Shhhh, don't say that outloud, and I only took fifty thousand, he had about two hundred thousand DP on him, so its not like I took too much, besides, they're Pigmasks, why should I care if I stole from them seeing that they're all obeying Porky … just enjoy this for now Claus cuz we won't be enjoying anything when we get into Empire Porky Building, that place is gonna be swarming with Pigmasks and not only that, Fassad and Porky are there so take it easy"
Kin did have a point, once they got in they would have to be extra carefull and they wouldn't get another change to relax, truth be said he shouldn't be stealing but Pigmaks gain alot of DP for just showing up for their work, they didn't actually had to do any work and they received a great amount of DP, so Claus let it slide.
"Fine, let's get inside and eat now" Kin grinned again out of victory and followed his brother inside, they then went to a empty table, grabbed the menu and waited for a waitress to come.
"What's all this food … I've never heard of ... What is this hard to pronounce thing Befe Bur ...gnigun?"
"Its pronounced Beef Bourguignon and apparently its a fancy french name for steak"
"... What is this 'French' you speak about" Claus was shocked but then remebered that only the higher Pigmasks knew about the past.
"First of, the food is from where Mas-*Ahem* Porky used to live, second of, French is a language and the reason that the steak has its name on french is because ... um ... That I don't know ... but I do know that it's expensive because it's supposed to be fancy so ... please don't waste all our money on that ... oh and one more thing, aside from the steak, most of the food that's displayed there isn't that healthy so don't make a habit eating this" Claus looked at Kin and he realized that his sibling had a weird look on his face.
"… What ... do I have something on my face ... or ... do I look too much like myself ... don't tell me I need more clothes to cover up my identity"
"Who are you and what did you do to my brother, Claus isn't normally concerned about eating healthy, that's Lucas's thing"
"Can't I be responsible for like ten seconds!" upon saying this both boys began laughing, Kin never expected Claus to say those words, and Claus was even more surprised then Kin.
"Hello what will you be ordering?" the robotic lady asked both boys and handed both the menu.
"Go ahead and pick whatever you want Kin it's not like I want anyth-"
"I WANT THE OMELET SPECIAL OF THE DAY!" Claus nearly fell from his seat at how sudden and loud Kin spoke. A feeling of regretfulness was quick to take place in Claus since Kin ordered the one thing he could never say no to.
"Very well, but I do inform, the Omelet Special includes alot of diferent kinds of omelet based dishes, are you sure you can eat it all?"
"No worries, I checked the menu, and I'm sharing the food with big bro" tears formed on Claus's eyes as he mouthed 'thank you'
The robotic lady nodded and rushed to the kitchen.
About 5 minutes passed and Claus was starting to recalling what he had seen the previous night, and began growing concerned for Kin.
"Hey Kin"
"Yeah?"
"… I've been thinking and … I'm going to tell you what they did to me"
Kin had a look that would say 'What're talking about?' but he soon caught on what Claus meant, he meant what the Pigmasks did to him.
"… Are you sure about that … I don't want you to rush if you're not rea-"
"The day I went after the Drago …" Kin stopped talking once Claus began speaking " … The day I regret the most … I went to Drago Plateau to find the Drago that killed mom … it was harsh passing by that place and not have any of the other creatures attack me but I managed …"
Kin looked up and saw that Claus had his head hanging down, the topic was really sensitive and difficult for him, he could also tell that Claus was struggling to keep in tears.
"Claus sto-" "But when I found the Drago … it wasn't what I expected … I attacked him … hurt him … he never fought back … he only looked at me with sad eyes … when I realized what was happening I stopped and looked at him … he was suffering on purpose because he knew the suffering he gave us …"
The red haired boy stopped again as he caught his breath, he felt like he was about to burst in tears from recalling the experience.
"But then … he changed … there was a smoke curtain but it was different its color was like blood and when it started to clear up, the drago looked angry and for the first time, I felt a pure intent of wanting to kill …" Kin didn't realized it but he tightened his hand with so much strenght that his nails began drawing blood from his skin.
"… The drago attacked me without mercy … he bit my right arm off my bad, he used his claws and tore my eye off, and then he hit me with his tail sending me flying down into a small ravine where no one would find me unless they knew where to search"
Claus began tearing up.
"… I thought I was going to die … but then I saw people … Ironically, with my last strenght I reached my hand to them and begged for help, to the ones I thought came to save me … What a foolish mistake that was … when I woke up … well … I can't remember everything … but I remember the pain … I remember how cruel they were … I remember getting my memories stuck … and I remember my undying wish for death …"
Claus looked up, his eyes meeting the ones of his brother.
Kin saw Claus's face full of tears and a expression that presented so much fear, much more then the fear Kin had experienced, and seeing his brother like that was sickening to him, he felt his anger grow but he couldn't let Claus realize that.
"… What is the meaning of this Claus … Why are you telling me all of this now?"
"Because … I know you wont tell me about that thing back on Ionia's place" Kin tensed up, he realized where all of that was going … it was going down the path he didn' want it to go.
"I know that you wouldn't tell me … but now that I told you about what happened to me … I think your going to tell me … so please Kin … share your pain with me … Tell your brother what that was ple-"
"You don't know a damn thing about that bastard" The room suddently grew cold. Claus never heard Kin speak so … emotionless or even cuss someone.
"Your my brother Claus and I don't want you to know this, but now … Your using my morals against me ... I don't think I have a choice …" Kin began telling Claus about his story and each detail that he told made Claus angry or filled with despair.
"Here's your food you two, it will cost about 16800 Dp" Kin took a few seconds but he broke the eye contact he had with Claus and payed the robotic woman.
Kin didn't even gave time for Claus to react as he began to eat his food, not shortly after Claus did so too.
Not too long after the robotic lady delivered their food the two got out of the restaurant as both were full.
Once outside Claus realized that the seriousness that Kin always carried wasn't seriousness but sadness.
"Kin … I'm sorry abou-"
"Don't … please don't … I still have the strenght to fight back … but the moment I feel sorry for myself it's the end … don't end me Claus … please big brother … let me live" this time Kin's words were heavy, Claus could feel his sibling's sadness.
A sad look crossed Kin's face and at that moment Claus pulled him into a hug "You're not alone … I'm here for you … and so is Lucas … do you remember Kin … When we're all together we're unstoppable, right?" Kin returned the hug and they stayed like for a few minutes but those felt like hours.
When the two broke the hug they notice that some of the bystanders were giving them looks but the two decided it was best to ignore them seeing that they knew what they had to do.
The time had arrived, the wind looked like it howled as they approached their final destination, the two stood in front of the massive building as they let the fact that they were going to storm the Empire Porky Building sink in.
They gave each other a confident look and they marched into the Building where the fate of the world would be decided, would it be life or would it be death, only their choices mattered and mistakes were not allowed as not their lifes, not everyone they knew, but the world itself was at stake.
Getting in wasn't a problem for the two, and luckily for them they were able to partake on a small event for tourists, they could go up and each floor would be explained, unluckily for them that would only go as far as the 37th floor, but at least it was better then plan A, that consisted of Kin blowing up everything on the first floor, elevator and stairs included and then using PSI to fly to help them get to the 100th floor.
As the two went on, they escaped from the small group of tourists on the 30th floor and thanks to Claus's Commander rank they kept proceding.
"You know Claus … you being the Commander and all is being pretty useful ... never thought I'd say that out loud" a shiver ran across his body as he began imagining Claus as the Commander once again.
"True … but you know I hate this" Kin nodded in agreement to his brother as they kept walking down the hall.
"Hey what're two doing here!" Both boys flinched as they turned to see a few Majors.
Oh no, how am I supposed to get Kin and me out of this without revealing my identity…
Kin decided to step up seeing that his brother had no awnser "Well, you see sir … we ... um ... we're with the tourist group on the building, but we got distracted and got lost"
Got Lost! They'll never believe that!
"Is that so? Why didn't you say it sooner, follow us, we'll lead you both back to the group" Claus felt like a weight was dropped on his head, he couldn't believe that the Majors were dumb enough to fall for that.
The group of majors kept leading Kin and Claus to what they believed to be the tourist group, but when both realized something was wrong it was already too late as both we're seperated by a wall that suddenly shot from the floor.
"What's this, What's happening?" The Pigmasks looked back and began laughing.
"You really thought we wouldn't notice our Commander or you … Pigmask Terror!" Kin felt a sting on his neck and reacted almost immediately by trowing his hand back hitting a Pigmask away from him.
Kin felt like his options were becoming fewer and fewer as he began feeling nauseous.
"Like our special drug, it acts fast on the human body, it starts by making you feel extremely weak, then you can't move and it doesn't wear off, you'll need a antidote for that" The Pigmask explained to him as Kin fell to his knees, his anger towards them began burning but he was cornered.
Meanwhile on the other side of the wall.
"Hey what's this … What're you doing" he asked as the Pigmasks rushed to him and grabbed him by the arms and legs and began rushing to the lab.
"Hey! Let me go!" he shouted as he struggled to break free from their grip.
"There's no way we're doing that Commander" Claus flinched and stopped his moving once he heard that name.
Seeing that he had stopped resisting the Pigmasks began hurrying, and Claus knew far too well where they were taking him … they were bringing him to the lab to bring back their commander.
Once they arrived they placed Claus on one metallic table and tried to tie him but Claus had resumed his struggling, but Claus couldn't break free from those many Pigmasks and ended up tied as a few scientis approached him.
"Hello Commander, long time no see … It's time for you to return to us" the scientist gave Claus a creepy grin but Claus wouldn't allow himself to join them again.
Said will to fight back was overrun by fear when he managed to see what they were bringing to him "N-No … keep that t-thing away from me …. NO!" he screamed as a new helmet was placed on his head making him feel like there was something stabbing his head from the inside out and each stab like pain began to burn not allowing him to relax not for even a second.
Back at where Kin was, the Pigmasks where waiting for the drug to affect all of Kin's body but something surprised them, Kin began standing up as if the drug had no effect, and then, he began laughing.
"What … that's ... That's Impossible!" They began backing away as they saw Kin really pissed off, a murderous look was across their face as his evil grin grew bigger.
"You guys forget one thing … I fight at my best when I'm at a disadvantage!" he then began focusing his PSI and used his inner PK Fire making his body temperature go up and create a red steam around him.
"What're you doing monster!"
"Eh … I think you have our parts wrong, you're the monsters … and what I'm doing is making most of my blood evaporate … if I am correct, the poison will fade away before all of my blood does, and the fact I'll have less blood puts me at a even bigger disadvantage … now your going to see what happens when you mess with me!" he pointed his left hand at the Pigmasks and then pointed it to a wall making their bodies fly to wall bringing them to unconsciousness, while leaving one Pigmask undamaged.
"What're gonna do to m-agh!" Kin vanished from spot, as he shot himself to the Pigmask so fast that he wondered if Kin had used PSI or not to do that.
The Pigmask couldn't react to Kin's swiftness as Kin grabbed his neck with one hand and began chockin him. His other hand began heating up as steam formed around it.
"I'm just gonna say this once" He approached his other hand to the hand chocking the Pigmask "You can escape alot of pain here ... just tell me where Cl – The Commander is"
To show he was joking around he placed his heated hand on his face and its quickly melted out the rubber helm and began burning his face.
"AHH" the scream made him withdraw his hand
"WHY! ... You ... You didn't even ... gave me time to ... awnser" he asked in between gasps.
"... Why ... you have the audacity to ask why ... ehehehe ... the why is, I'm doing that to show I ain't fucking around" his words were dark and the fear inside the Pigmask exponentially grew.
"Now ... do I have to place this hand on your neck and make you watch your own death or ... will you be as kind as to tell me where you scum took MY BROTHER?"
"B-brother?" Kin didn't react as he just began closing the distance between the neck and the hand.
"You can make it all stop you know … just tell me where did they took Claus" He no longer bothered trying to hid the fact the strongest Pigmask Commander and the he were related.
The Pigmask still wasn't talking "NoOOAAAHHH" Kin's hand grew tighter around his neck.
"As far as I know if I keep up this strenght you'll die ... but isn't fun to watch is it ..." he slightly released the neck making the Pigmask gasp out for air " Now Now, don't be too hasty, I never said I wouldn't kill you, I only said it wouldn't be fun, hehehehHAHAHAHAHA ... here it comes scum, your last chance to survive, tell me where he is or the burning hand gets you!" the Pigmask didn't reply making Kin sigh.
His grip grew again chocking him "Oh well, I don't like or enjoy killing but … I'm really good at it … oh well … time to stop wasting time and end your sorry li-"
"WaaIT AHH …"
"Hm?" he once again loosened his grinp on his neck.
The Pigmask desperately used both his hands to try and keep him away "What is it?"
"*Huff* *Puff* The 54th floor … the commander was brought to the lab on the 54th floor so that he could be repaired Okay ... Is that what you wanted to know!"
"Why Yes ... it is ... now you're going to sleep for a while" he made it sound like he was going to kill the Pigmask but with his hand still on his neck he trew him with all his strenght into the wall bringing him to the lkand of forced dreams.
Knowing now that Claus was probably in pain broke Kin's murderous trance, and once he was again fully conscious he used his PSI to quickly tie all the Pigmasks up and hid them on a nearby room making sure they wouldn't be found out, once he was finished he tried to use his impressive swiftness he used agains't the Pigmask to reach the 54th floor but for some reason he couldn't, but still he didn't care he couldn't he just went as fast as his body allowed and hoped it wasn't too late for Claus.
"GAAHHH … NOO … AHHHH"
"Sir, the subject seems to be showing quite a icredible resistance to the new helmet, progress will not be made while he keeps up that resistance." One of the scientist who was monitoring the screens informed the lead scientist.
"Is that so ... huh ... prepare the shock teraphy, if that resistance won't break by itself we force it to" the other scientists in the room all nodded as they began to prepare the machine and they stuck some wire around Claus's headafter removing the helm so that it wouldn't be damaged.
At this point Claus couldn't speak, the helm did quite a number to him, he couldn't even fight back, but he was determined not to become the Commader once again ... but still, determination wasn't going to save him since that was only a feeling, he hoped for a miracle to save him, even if just to buy a few seconds, a miracle was all he wanted.
"You there! Call Commander Fassad to the Lab, he shall be quite please to know we have the Commader AND that we're bringing him back to the Pigmasks!" the woman who received the order nodded and exited the lab to find Fassad.
"Are the preparations complete to begin?"
A man that was near the machine that was supposed to give Claus hell responded quite eagerly "Power is at 93% sir, its more than enough to begin!" Claus once again, with all his might, prayed for something, anything at all to save him.
"Very well then ... Begin!" for Claus the world seemed to stop, he was prepared for the pain, but the wait was hell itself, he waited and waited and waited and when the electricity began running through his body, all his preparation to endure the pain seemed worthless.
What should've only taken a few minutes to do had now taken one full hour but Claus was still fighting with all his strenght agains't them, he wouldn't allow him to betray his brothers by being the Commader, but even he began feeling his own limits, he was about to give in since his strenght was no more but at that moment the pain stopped.
"Sire, the machine is at 0% power as we've been shocking him at max power" the same scientist who monitored the machine informed.
"This is quite impressive, we've never had a subject that was able to withstand this much … ok everyone, recharge the machine and increase the power of the shocks, I don't care if we've already been running at max, we need more!" the scientists went to do so but then the power the lab itself went out.
"Huh?"
"I won't allow you to do that Theodore!" they all looked to where the voice came from and everyone was unimpressed, except Claus who couldn't see the person but recognized the voice, was unimpressed.
"Of course you would be the one to stop this … couldn't be the one in charge of the Commander so now you don't want us to be successful, right … Andonuts?" the name was so familiar to Claus.
"What're you speaking of, you monster … look at what're you doing, your shocking that poor child … he's not a machine, he's human!" laughter bursted on the room.
"Hahah, Andonuts you sure have a funny sence of humor, calling that Chimera a Human, I admit that it might've been a human before but now his heart doesn't even work, he his 100% chimera ... and let's be clear, It's Theo, not Theodore" the lead scientist informed as both scientist began arguing with each other, but near Claus, a woman who was feeling bad for him approached him pressed his hand on his chest as if to caress him, but she received quite a surprise by doing so.
A scream brought attention to the table Claus was in.
"What the heck is wrong with you, why're you even screaming" Theo told her with a cold voice making her almost apologize but Andonuts spoke before she could
"Do you have to be that mean, speacially to your own crew, miss please, tell us what's wrong" both began sending deadly glares towards each other once again ... well, Theo did, Andonuts was trying to solve the matter as peacefully as possible.
"Um … sir … I don't want to disagree about that but … I can feel a heartbeat on him …" a lower ranked scientist informed both of royal head scientists.
"P-Preposterous" as if to defy him, she quickly turned another machine and showed them all Claus's heartbeat.
"Huh?" she looked down and saw that Claus had grabbed her "... Thank ... you ..." hearing him breathless broke the woman's heart.
"See I told you, he's alive, he's a human, stop this at once!" Andonuts once again tried to stop the madness that was going on.
"Ugh … that … Of course, the shock waves must have revitalized his heart for a few moments, but that'll have to go seing that Master Porky wants him heartless, he's a robot and that's it, besides who would want to have that monstrosity, who would care enoguh about that thing" Claus began tearing up seeing how he spoke about him.
"I'm with doctor Andonuts, I won't allow you or anyone else to touch this child again" she went to free Claus's restrains.
"Don't let that traitor Emma free him!"
In the room there were ten people, Andonuts and Theodore who were both struggling agains't each other, Emma the female scientist who still had a heart and seven loyal goons to Theo who we're doing their absolute best to keep her from reaching Claus.
The people in the lab were so caught up on their actions that they didn't notice the lab door opening with a very pissed off person.
"You're despicable!" Andonuts was punched in the face sending him to the floor.
"Oh shut it Andonuts, You've done the same as me, remember all of the other Chimeras … I'm only following up on your project … now if you excuse me I have to go work on Master Porky's toy"
"Oh I don't think so you damn bastard" the person said as he rushed to the scientist.
"Wha-" He was cut off as a blade slashed him in his chest sending him flying to the floor.
The sudden action caught the attention of everyone "Sir Theo!" "Father!" the goons who were stopping Emma rushed to him to tend his wound, allowing Emma to attempt freeing Claus.
"… What're you all so worried about … If he dies I just rid this world of a monster …" he received glares from the goons and from the one who apparently was his son but he gave them a murderous look and they all stopped, Kin looked back to where there was a woman near Claus "You okay there bro?"
Claus's eyes shot open as he heard the voice, he turned his head and saw the figure who entered the lab to be his brother.
"KIN! Please help me!" Kin began walking towards Claus, and on his way Andonuts happened to be getting back on his feet.
"… Kid … this was uncalled for … Killing or giving mortal wounds is never the awnser …" Andonuts told him as he placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Well then … 'doctor' you should also know that no one should play god and mess with living creatures by turning them into Chimeras … so don't you dare giving me a moral lesson, and get your hand off me before you lose it" He said getting distracted from Claus.
Theo's son decided to take advantage of Kin being distracted, he grabbed a scapel ran towards Claus and in one quick move he punched Emma to the floor and placed the scapel right on Claus's neck.
"Not one more step or I'll kill him!" Kin locked eyes with the man who was clearly scared.
The man looked deeply on Kin's eyes and saw nothing … his eyes where empty of any feeling.
"You scum, leave that child alone!" Kin could clearly see the woman wasn't like the others.
"1 seconds …"
"Huh?
"That's how much It'll take for me to reach you … and It'll take another second for me to kill you … in a total of 2 seconds to keep my brother safe from you … looking at how you are right now, the trembling, how high your voice is … I'd say it will take 4 seconds for you to cut Claus's troat" The man looked confused and lowered the scapel a bit.
"Who the hell is Claus?" that was it, that was the moment Kin needed, he swiftly got near him and quickly gave a powerful kick on his face making him fly to the other side of the room.
"… Claus is my brother … you may know him as the Commander … oh and just one more thing" He turned around to meet the small group of scientists and he had a crazy look on his face, a look that would say, 'I'll have fun murdering each and every single one of you'.
"Next time you threaten my brother, you'll be beging me to kill you after I'm done with you … oh and don't even think to ask for help of the Pigmasks cuz … I'll kill each and every single one of you!" Kin then turned around and began freeing Claus.
"Kin … Thank you" Kin was dragged into a hug.
"*Sigh* … You gotta be more careful Claus" He returned the hug.
"Let's get out of here … I can't stand being here" Claus took Kin's hand and began heading to the exit.
"Right behind you big bro-ugh!"
"Huh? Kin!" Claus rushed to his brother who was on his knees.
"Ha ha … seems like the effect of the blood loss is finally kicking in" Claus helped Kin up and sat him on a nearby chair, one of the scientists saw this as a chance to kill Kin but only one glare with a creepy grin from Kin was enough to make him return to the small group he was on.
"What did you mean with blood loss" Kin noticed the worry on Claus's voice but he really didn't understand the concern.
"I was careless and left a Pigmask inject something into me so what I did was heat my body up with PSI to the point most of my blood evaporated" speaking so casually about something so serious got Kin to receive a punch in the head by Claus.
"Hey! What was that for!"
"You IDIOT! Don't you realize you could've died!"
"He is right you know, you shouldn't do that"
"Excuse me but who are you to say that, you played god so don't think you have the right to butt in my life" Andonuts didn't know what to say, Kin was right, he had no right to say anything after what he did, but still he hoped for Kin not to be so cold towards him after he tried to rescue his brother.
"Are you alright, are you feeling any dizzyness, vomits, nausea, anything at all" the woman who the guy that tried to kill Claus called Emma asked him.
"Other then feeling weak I am alright, and I have a question for you ... why do you care about me or Claus, I understand Claus but me ... I'm the enemy so ... why?" the question also intrigued Claus and both awaitened a awnser.
"I really am intrigued as you have nothing to win by helping us ... did someone tell you to do this, or maybe this is all part of one of your evil Pigmask plans ... so ... was I right on any of those assumptions ... did I predict what kind of person you are?" Emma seemed shocked, not for the fact that she was asked that question but for how Kin sounded devoid of emotion.
"I do not care if you are friend or foe, I joined the Pigmasks so that I could help everyone and from what I've seen the Pigmasks ... are mean ... not all of them, but most of them, so that's why I'm helping you, I can feel something greater then me showing me the way to follow, and it tells me to help and so I shall" she took out from her pocket a bottle with a few pills and gave three to Kin.
"Take these, they will make you feel better and please don't force yourself ... I know you may not trust me but" Kin cut her off by taking the pills and saw her concerned look.
"What? I trust you, you aren't like them and I know you aren't lying and also, I think I speak for everyone when I say you have a kind aura around you even if you try to it" Kin gave her a warm smile while Claus and Andonuts nodded.
"Okay, now that that's settled, Kin can we leave this place just being here gives me the heebie jeebies" the group was about to leave when a robotic voice echoed on the lab.
"'You two are not going anywhere' that is what Fassad told me to say, he also adds 'NWHEHEHE!' very strongly"
The four looked at where the voice came from and saw Fassad with his interpretor, a woman with a shocked look on her face and four majors.
"'Why don't you scientists get out of here and let me and the Majors handle this' this is what Fassad just said, I would also like to say that you should hurry for your own safety" they didn't need to be told twice, they took the opportunity and escaped the room taking the injured Theo to treatment.
Andonuts grabbed Emma by her hand and rushed to the door just to be blocked by two Majors
"Fassad said 'Not you two, traitors!' followed by 'Nwehehehe' that's one 'Nwe' and three 'hes' ... Fassad also adds 'Grab the traitors!'" both Majors at the door prepared to caught the two when they received a airbone fire kick clearing the exit.
"You two get out of here, and get out of the Pigmasks sight, Claus and I have got this"
"Emma let's go!" before exiting the lab she stopped and looked back "You two ... good luck and don't lose!" Claus gave her a thumbs up, Kin crossed his arms and grinned "We aren't losing here!" both said in unison as she left.
The lab's atmosphere had changed, it was a cold atmosphere before but now it grew even colder.
"I'm not gonna say this to back out of a fight but, how on earth did he found out we were here, I made sure to silence all Pigmasks"
"Um … before you arrived Kin the head scientist send a assistent to bring Fassad here sooo … We're gonna have to fight our way out of here" Kin could see a fire burning inside of Claus's eyes making him tear up, the last time he saw those eyes was before Mom died.
"'Nwhehehehe, why look what we have here, our nightmare and our Commander and now we're gonna kill two birds with one stone, and all of this happened was because of you were naive, nwhehehe, how erotic from our great Commander'"
Kin and Claus looked at Fassad, Claus was red on the face while wearing a shocked look while Kin had a confused look.
Fassad looked at his Majors and they also seemed quite shocked as well until he realized what the interpreter had sayed making him go red and mad.
"Huh? What's that … OH … Ironic, not erotic, please do forgive my mistake, Commander Fassad meant 'how ironic from our great Commander' please do forgive my mistake" she repeated feeling honestly sorry and looking quite embarrassed … well … as honest and embarrassed a robot could get.
After that a awkward silence filled the room as they all looked at each other and the two Majors couldn't forget the mistake the interpreter had made, and those two didn't just forget what she said, their mind began exploring on what she said.
"… Um … are those two okay or … are they just like that Claus?"
"Why are you asking me? I know I was their Commander but I can't remember how every single Pigmask acts like"
Fassad began playing a song again and the interpreter quickly translated "'HEY! What's wrong with you two!' that's what Fassad just said … Commander Fassad may I give my opinion"
Fassad looked at the small robot and nodded "Thank you sir. From what I can see, they began acting like that after my inocent mistake and I do believe that they are *ahem* imagining the enemy on those kinds of situations"
Once again the room was filled with silence, except the Majors squealing a bit.
" . . . "
" . . . WHAT!" Claus shouted from the top of his lungs as he was completely red on the face, the two then quickly looked at each other and grew even more embarrased.
"HOW CAN THEY EVEN THINK ABOUT THAT! THEY SHOULDN'T THINK OF US LIKE THAT! WE'RE BROTHERS!" while Claus seemed to be affected by what was happening Kin didn't seem affected at all, in fact he didn't know why that was affecting everyone that badly.
"… I'm not getting what the problem is" Upon saying that Kin received a shocked look from Fassad and Claus.
"What? It's not my problem that I don't know what's wrong, I lived about three years on the wilderness and do remember that when I went living in the wild, my knowledge of words and meanings wasn't quite the best so ... for a teenager my knowledge of words and expressions is quite bad, for a kid not so bad so … anyone wants to explain to me what's going on"
Kin looked at Claus expecting him to respond but he only blushed "… Um … it's not something you wanna know … just know their thinking bad stuff about us"
Fassad, was being completely ignored, began to grow annoyed.
"'Nwheeee! Enough fooling around!' Fassad is preparing his attack" Fassad then began approaching both boys quickly and used PK Thunder Omega on both Kin and Claus, being successful on hiting both boys with the full attack.
"What the heck! How dare you attack us while we were distracted!" Fassad didn't reply as he had quite the proud look on his face.
"Oh, gonna play it like that are we … in that case PK Fire Omega!" Kin fired a great blast of fire towards Fassad, but seeing that Fassad had the ability to fly he managed to dodge the attack, while the same can't be said of the Majors as they were hit pretty brutally by Kin's attack bringing them both to unconsciousness.
"'These Majors are so worthless, I should've brought the Elite Pigmasks with me, but oh well, I guess I should sufice to defeat you guys'" Fassad flew higher and began charging up a attack, and by the amount of PSI that he was going to use the attack was a strong one.
"Claus I think we should back down … Claus?" Kin saw Claus lying on the floor with a few sparks flying from his body.
"From all times to get paralyzed it had to be now!" Kin grabbed Claus and began running on the opposite direction from Fassad as he unleashed a strong PK Thunder Omega.
Having the extra weight of Claus Kin wasn't as fast as he normally was so dodging Fassad's attack was out of question, but thankfully for him, the machinery of the lab was big enough to act as a body sized shield and seeing that doctor Andonuts had turned off the power in the lab it was impossible for the machines to overheat from just one PK thunder.
"I've got to have something to remove this effect from Claus, Secret herb … no, Eye drops … no, fresh mint … no, Yogurt … No, Ah a Anti-Paralysis, here Claus drink up" he placed the small bottle on Claus mouth as he began drinking the liquid and in just a few seconds Claus regain mobility on his body.
"Bleurgh, that tastes awful … but at least I can move again, lets go Kin, its time for Fassad to learn a lesson, Don't mess with the twins!" He quickly ran away from the machine and began drawing Fassad's attention.
"Hey Fassad, how can you even fly being that fat, I bet you need a giant cushion when you need to land!" Steam began flying from Fassad's horns.
"'HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT ME LIKE THAT YOU STUPID ROBOT' Fassad's anger is increasing by the second" He prepared to use another PK Thunder on Claus as he knew that he was weak to thunder but his mechanical parts began freezing up to the point they stopped working and he fell onto the cold hard floor.
"'What the heck! Eeek'" Kin was standing near him with a giant fireball above him.
"Let's get one thing straight" Kin was above Fassad with a menacing smile "Claus is NOT a robot or a chimera he's a human being, remember that" he pointed one finger towards Fassad and the fireball shot at him at incredible speed, and right before the attack hit Kin teleported next to Claus as they both watched the attack land.
A normal foe would have been defeated by that, but Fassad wasn't a normal foe, after that attack he was still up, he had alot of burns on his body but still he stood ready to fight them.
"'If you two thought that was enough to end me then you're even dumber then what I thought nweheheh!'" he raised both his hands and casted PK Thunder again.
Kin and Claus swiftly dodged each and every bolt but they weren't capable to dodge Fassad when he got near them and began to bash at them, it was impossible for them to dodge both bolts and Fassad's bashes.
"Sorry Claus but it's time for a solo attack" he shot forward with great speed, and dodged Fassad's thunder bolts by jumping over them or sliding beneath them.
When Kin got close enough he flashed a smile and snapped his fingers as glowing snow flakes happeared and transformed into spears allowing Kin to use them as platforms and at the same time build up his speed.
Kin jumped from the last spear towards Fassad and prepared another airbone kick and at the tip of his feet sparks began forming.
Fassad managed to dodge the kick but not the lightning bolt that came with it making him lose height.
Gracefully Kin fell to the floor and joined back with Claus "Did you like my attack" Claus eyes where shining "That was sooo cool, You've gotta teach me how to materialize and how to use PSI without saying the trigger" "kay" his sibling replied.
Both of them locked eyes with a PSI blast coming their way, Claus dodged it and Kin teleported away.
The two had little to no options now, Fassad had flew again as high as he could and he wouldn't fall for the same trick Kin pulled off again, then without giving the twins any time to think he began to repeatedly cats PK Thunder Omega giving them no choice but to dodge him and be away from him as humanly possible sinde Fassad had the advantage afterall, this was basically a flying battle and as the room was so big Fassad could just fly wherever he wanted to.
"Kin I have a small idea, do you think you can get Fassad to be near those busted looking machines?" Kin nodded and swiftly advanced towards Fassad as he casted PK Thunder to try and make him back away into the machine.
While Kin took care of putting Fassad into position, Claus had another plan, he rushed to the power fuse that doctor Andonuts had turned off to turn it on once again, if he was right upon turning it on plus a small discharge of PK Thunder it would make the machinery of the room go haywire and it would make them spark uncontrolably making Fassad paralyzed.
Claus was at the power fuse he, just needed Kin to put Fassad in place and that was easier said then done.
Fassad having all that open space was able to fly wherever he wanted to and getting him to stand on one particular place was hard, even for Kin who was not giving Fassad a chance to think about his actions.
" *huff* … Take this … PK Thunder Arrow materialization!" Even after witnissing the boy using materealization once Fassad's eyes went wide, the forgotten PSI was hard to master and hard to be repeatedly casted.
Dozens of arrows made of PK thunder were summoned above Kin and all of them flew towards Fassad while leaving a small opening, Fassad seeing said opening took it to dodge all the arrows and little did he know that he fell for their trap.
Once he was above the broken machine Claus pulled the lever and used PK Thunder on it, reactivating all of the lab's machines and at the same time making them lose control, the ones beneath Fassad began sparking uncontrolably like planned but then it did something Claus did not plan, truth be said Fassad couldn't move but it was because the machines created a magnetic field and Fassad was right in the middle of it, Claus was even feeling the effect of the machines hit him as his arm and eye felt like being pulled by the magnetismo.
"Yes! It worked, now I'm not gonna allow you to fight back after this plan Claus made, take this PK Thunder Omega, PK Fire Omega!" Kin casted both PSIs making them colide and fuse hitting Fassad and the machines and this time they all went haywire and short circuit.
"Kin what was that!"
"What, you didn't know you can fuse PSI into a stronger move, I thought Ionia told you about this" Claus began scratching his head and had a goofy smile as he forgot that Ionia had told something among the lines of 'the better you have control of your own PSI the better, you can even use multiple attacks to fuse into a greater attack ... its a hard stunt but a mighty good one.
Among the smoke cause by the machines they could see Fassad once again, but this time he couldn't really make himself fly away from a attack he was vulnerable due to the paralyzes.
"Let's end this Kin, with a double Thunder Omega"
"Oh so you mean a twincast?"
"... What ... No, yes, no matter, yeah, Twincast Thunder Omega, got it" Kin's response was a smile and Claus took that as a okay.
"PK Tunder Omega!"
"Twincast Thunder Omega!" the bolts that came from each PSI user fused into one fearsome thunder bolt and it shot towards Fassad ata n incredible unavoidable speed hitting the target and creating a mighty explosion.
The twins got back together and gave each other a high five.
"Good plan Claus, its good to see that you still have those skills from when we were small"
"Eheh, well you weren't bad yourself, that attack was amazing, you got to teach me how to materialize stuff and what was that all about, Twincast Thunder Ome-" Claus was pushed away by Kin before he could finish and while he was falling back he saw Kin being hit by these star looking blasts.
The ginger fell to the floor with a hard thud but knowing that his sibling was in danger gave him the determination to get back up on his feet and rush to him "KIN!" Claus tried to reach Kin but a ring of fire was created around him making it impossible for Claus to reach him.
"'Nwehehehe now it's your turn Commander'" Fassad used the same attack as before to try and hit Claus but he was way faster then Fassad and dodged them all then he used the machinery to hide from Fassad.
Dammit, I can't do a thing like this, he has the advantage, and if I let this go on Kin will … I'll be … NO! … I can't let them hurt my lil bro, and there's no way in Hell I'm serving them again as the Commander
"'Come out, Come out wherever you are little Commander'" Fassad was casting PK Thunder everywhere to find Claus.
If only I could activate my jetpack … cmon … I've used this so many times as the Commander why can't I use them now … Cmon … CMON! Claus thought to himself and amazingly his will activated his mechanical eye displaying a small message saying tha his wings had been activated.
"'This is too troublesome, If I can't make you come out, then I'll have to force you, say good bye to your little brother'" Fassad began charging another PK Starstorm but a strong lightning bolt from above caught him off guard.
"Don't you dare hurt my brother!" Claus pointed his right arm towards Fassad and then he activated the canon function on his arm firing a powerful beam at Fassad, making him fall to the floor.
Claus dove straight down and he began charging another of his Special thunder bolts.
When he was about to crash into Fassad his wings opened oce again making him stop mid air due to the strong air current and used his special Thunder skill.
Noticing no action from Fassad made him think he had been defeated but he couldn't be certain as there was a smoke curtain covering Fassad.
Claus seeing no action from Fassad, decided to lower his guard to catch his breath but that was a great mistake of him.
Fassad shot out of the smoke curtain and punched Claus in the gut, then he grabbed him and trew him to a wall, and after that he concentrated all his power to unleash the biggest and most awful PK Thunder Omega on Claus.
"'Nweheheh, your pathetic, after all the time you were with us you still don't know that you must finish a enemy off or they finish you off, you still don't know that you kill or get killed in this world, now learn and die … again!'" Claus tried to get back up but the pain was unbearable, he could only watch as Fassad focused his power to unleas another brutal attack.
"AHHHHHRRRGGGGG" Kin had broken free from Fassad's fire circle and grabbed Fassad's neck ... with his legs.
He then took advantage of being behind his head while chocking him, he trew punch after punch on Fassad's head over and over again … but something was off, whenever he hit he discharged from his fists into Fassad a small wave of blueish energy that almost felt like … PK Love.
"Who do you think you are to hurt my big brother!" Fassad began flying erratically as he couldn't break free from Kin and he was trying his best to do so.
"'Let … go of me … you … pest!'" Kin tightened his legs around Fassad's neck.
"Never! Take this, PSI Blast!" Kin placed both his hands on Fassad's head as he used a strong PSI move that not only affected Fassad's head but his PSI course all over his body.
"Fassad is making a bunch of incompreendible sounds" The interpreter suddently said, but that wasn't going to stop Kin.
"And now for the finishing blow, PK Love Omega!" Kin released his gripo n Fassad and before he fell down he released a great blast of power hitting Fassad onto the floor, Kin although successful lacked the strenght for a perfect landing and began falling head first.
He fell to the floor with a hard thud and the floor was surprisingly soft "Ergh ... I didn't expect the floor to be so soft ... but still that hurt" a voice from bellow made Kin jump "Not as much as it did me" he looked down and noticed he was sitting on his brother's back.
"AAAHHHHH, CLAUS I'M SO SORRY!" he quickly got off his brother and helped him up.
"I'm okay Kin ... it takes alot more then that to take me out ... and that's why ... nobody messes ... with the twins ..." he said in between breaths.
Not too long after Fassad being defeated both Kin and Claus had regained their composure and they were stuck with a dilemma … they had been found out and now both didn't know what to do.
"I say we finish Fassad off, if we were found out we might as well lower their fighting power"
"Kin … how can you say that … I know Fassad is not the best person … or that he doesn't deserve to live but … your not killer … and neither am I"
Kin had to look away from Claus, he couldn't face his brother, he didn't even know why he said such a thing, but he knew it was true, if they left Fassad like that he would just come back for them or even worse … he would come for Lucas.
"Where are your going?"
Kin had drawn his blade and was apporaching Fassad quite slowly "I can't allow this to happen …" Kin had a dead and dark tone on his voice that made him sound like someone else.
"Grr, Kin! Snap out of it!" Kin didn't listen he just kept moving gforward until his blade was near Fassad's neck.
"Don't you understand big brother I'm doing this to protect you and LucAHH!"
Claus looked at his brother moving quite erratically "AHH WHAT'S BITING ME!" this time he sounded more like how he used to sound before, but then he fell to the floor and a tiny mouse made its way out of his shirt.
"Kin … are you okay?"
"What … just happened … why did I have my blad- … I mean … yeah I'm okay but ... why is that mouse protecting him?" Claus knew something was up, Kin looked confused but he did have a point, why was there a mouse protecting Fassad.
Both began moving towards the mouse and it tried to look as frightening as possible to both boys, but they weren't afraid of the little mouse.
"So … why are you protecting that monster?" Kin had that dark tone on his voice again and it was concerning Claus.
"I … I … I won't l-l-let any of you h-h-hurt Locria …" The duo was surprised to hear that the mouse knew Fassad's Magipys name but that didn't explain why the mouse was protecting him.
"Kin … are you okay …" Kin wasn't facing Claus but he could feel it, he could faintly feel a pain in his heart and he knew that that pain was from Kin.
Turning his head slightly, King ave his brother a smile and then went back to the mouse.
"Fassad is a awful person, he has hurt many, many humans and non humans … why do you insist on protecting him"
The poor little mouse was trembling but even so he faced Kin head on "Your w-wrong … Locria isn't like that … Locria wasn't ever evil, NO! Locria isn't evil … Locria is being controlled b-b-but … when Locria's alone … Locria comes back to her old self … Locria was never bad to me … Locria saved me so … I'll defend Locria even if I know that it's not her inside right now but that … thing … so please … don't hurt Locria anymore!"
Kin flinched as he felt it, something was resonating deep inside of him when he heard those words with the pure wish of defending someone you care about, no matter how stronger the foe actually is … that sensation when the future would be seen by him, he was feeling it but this time … he didn't felt any darkness when that power manifested.
This place … it was Tazmily but … there was a bit of destruction … In the middle of the road he could see two people, both of them looked like kids.
One of them had a red cap, a bloody red bandana tied on his neck, a stripped shirt with the colours, black red and blue, black shorts, black shoes and was holding a black blade and he also had a few bruises, he seemed entirely out of breath and barely standing, but even so a dark strong PSI like of energy flowed in him.
The other kid ... he was quite different, he didn't even look human in a matter of fact, his skin was a mixture of red and purple, he had purple hair that went down to his feet, hid body seemed to be covered by bones coming out from shoulders, head and right leg, his right hand seemed to be made of rocks and so did his leg, and in the middle of his chest he had a stab wound and he was also emanating a dark energy just like the kid but also normal PSI.
"S-Stay Back!" he heard the boy who had that dark PSI shout at his foe while he walked back.
The non human kid lifted his hand and a pair of floating hands were summoned near him, he was using materialization "Shut up evil kid, this ends right here, right now, Although I do not look like it, I play the role of the Hero of this world and I … I WILL Strike you down and avenge all of the lifes you stole" his voice was familiar it sounded too familiar, in fact, the voice was so familiar as if he knew it better then anyone else.
He noticed him pointing his hand skyward and the hands he summoned began creating blasts of energy right in the middle of it "Can you hear the pleas of all the ones you and your kind killed … they only have one wish, ONE REQUEST AND THEY MADE IT TO ME, their begging me to keep on fighting and protect all that is left, can you hear them shouting my name while they cheer me on … with everyone standing together alongside me … with all their souls forged into mine … with all our hearts beating together ... in this fight … I … WILL … AVENGE … THEM …" behind the one who entiteled himself as Hero, Kin could see light forming silhouettes … they all looked like chimeras with deadly wounds and one of them seemed human, and far too familiar for him not to know, although dificult to see who that was it was Hinawa.
His attention was drawn back to the bandana boy who was gathering alot of dark energy around him … just like … Him …
He energy was focused around his blade and then he vanished.
The 'Hero' was cut from his left shoulder to his waist and then a dark power that seemed alot like PSI blasted his body bruising him even further.
"What? He's still alive … Incredible …"
"… Just DIE YOU DAMN BASTARD!" he tried to attack the Hero again but he quickly grabbed the blade of his sword and just by holding the palm of his hand in front of him made the kid fly backwards with the intensity of the wind.
The wind grew stronger, the Hero raised his head up again and began walking towards his prey, the demon kid was shaking, one of his strongest attacks was not enough to off him.
His grin grew as he brough one of his hands to his mouth and wiped away the blood coming out of it
"You're gonna have to try ALOT harder than just that to kill me you puny little creature" Upon uttering those words the blood from his wound began glowing as the wound closed, making him good as new and ready to keep fighting.
The demon stopped shaking as he had a vicious look on his face "Oh we will … right … Ahahaha"
What was that ... is he ... speaking to himself ...?
The kid charged forward towards the Hero, his dark blade conecting to his spear "… Wait … spear … he never had one … and why is that kid talking to himself … does he have two personalities or whatever?"
The Hero pushed him away from and raised his hand again skyward "Get ready you damn punk, I'm not letting you live!" He didn't even say what PSI he was going to use and above him there was one of the hands, the tips of the fingers flashed a light blue and PK Freeze Spears Materialized, the hand pointed towards the kid and then all spears went flying towards the him as he tried to finish the battle.
"Ya know, I really did want to prevent this … you were my favourite afteral-" A slash from the 'Hero's' spear prevented him to finish "AH as if I'd fall for your lies again, … No feelings … no mercy … no regrets … they weaken you … Keith, Len, Calleb … I won't let you guys die, I will protect you all, and … I WILL SAVE THE ONES I LOVE!" Both kids vanished for a second and then reappeared, as their weapons clashed.
"Fuhuhuhu ... good ... you have nice moves but ... can you handle TH-" a scream echoed as another person who looked familiar yet not stood with a blade stabbed on the floor creating a blast of fire that shot towards both kids forcing them to stop the attack on each other.
"Are you okay kid?" the new person asked the one that entitled himself as 'Hero'.
This new person was so familiar that it was scary, he was tall, very tall, obviously older then Kin and by alot, he had deep red hair, a scar above his right eye, a mask that covered from his nose and bellow and both his eyes were red, but from some reason one of the eyes looked alot like a eye from a humanized Chimera, just like Claus ...
"Bout time you woke up from your sleep Calleb" Although masked, Kin knew he was smilling.
"Sorry about leaving you alone and went off to dream land but now we have a job to do, Keith's still trapped inside that sphere and we have to free him"
"Sphere?" Kin began inspecting the area again and spotted a black sphere of energy that was sparking with dark electricity.
"I'll handle that kid Calleb, you go and try to break Keith free" he extended both arms and a pair of broadswords began forming.
"Are you sure about that, that kid is not like those others, he's way stronger" Kin didn't need to know Calleb to know he was uncertain.
"For once in your life, BELIEVE IN ME!" that last part came out as a shout as he blocked another attack the kid launched at them.
"... Fine ... but don't say I didn't warn you" he ran outside of Kin's field of vision.
"Oh no your not ..." a sound that sounded like a PSI attack echoed from where Kin couldn't see and he knew that the kid didn't want anyone near the sphere, but the question was ... why.
"Ugh"
Kin focused again on the two kids battling.
"What's wrong ... too much for you?" A taunt ... a weak worthless taunt but a taunt nonetheless.
"Don't underestimated" he spoke in a whisper
"Huh?" the kid clearly thought he had won the match.
"Don't you dare underestimate the power of the hero that never gives up!" his power suddendly shot to levels that scared even Kin who was just watching the whole thing develop.
He pushed both of his blades agains't the kid sending him flying backwards breaking down the wall of a house.
Even after that attack the kid was still standing and began moving towards the 'Hero', while he did so a creepy smile began forming on his face as he once again charged towards the 'Hero' with the intente of killing.
The Battle raged on until the kid stopped moving, he looked distracted as if he had just realized somehting, this gave the Hero a great chance to attack him.
"What is this?" Kin felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he were stabbed, then everything around him was darkness.
"What's this ..."This time could recognize the voice, he heard it not too long before
"Someone's watching … Who're you …"Kin's mouth felt dry as He spoke, but Kin did realize that it seemed like He couldn't recognize him.
"Out … get out … GEEETTT OUUUTTT!"Something invisible hit Kin, it was just like a PSI Blast but he didn't felt any PSI at all.
"Hey! Are you even listening!?" in front of Kin stood the little mouse again … he was back and he looked confused again.
"Kin … I think you should rest for a bit … let me handle this" hearing the concern on Claus's voice Kin had no choice but to obey him and let him take care of everything … for now.
Claus placed a hand on Kin's shoulder and gave him a warm smile "Thank you for listening to me"
Claus sat down with the mouse and talked with him "We aren't going to hurt Locria any further but you have to understand, we can't let Fassad be free, he is evil so we have to keep him stuck somewhere until this all ends"
The mouse dropped his head knowing he was right "I know but … you won't hurt Locria … right …"
That moment, something happened, Fassad's body was enveloped by a pink Light and all parts of machine began falling out, then after all had fallen out it began to shine brighter and brighter, until Fassad had his body completely restored, as if he had never been turned into a chimera before, Fassad also had recovered his strenght and was now standing.
Kin and Claus quickly got into position thinking Fassad was going for another round … but … that wasn't the case.
"Oh my … what a terrible experience now I have to hurt them again agains't my … wait a second … I'm moving my body, I'm speaking what I want … Can it be?" Fassad had brought both hands up and then brought them down, he repeated the action again and then he seemed ecstatic.
"I'M FREEE!" That was very odd, specially for Fassad, both boys couldn't help it but to look at each other as if saying 'what's wrong'.
With amazing speed Fassad had moved to them and gave both of them a big and tight hug
"OOOOOH THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU … THANK YOU!"
"WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!" both Kin and Claus shouted back at Fassad as he let both of them go.
"Oh that's right I have to introduce myself … Ahem … why hello there PK Love users, I am none other then Locria one of the seven Magypies … and also the last of them … I am the final guardian of the final Needle of the dragon, and now that I see the condition of how this world has turned out … I want you to pull my Needle and make this world reborn!"
"Excuse me if this sounds odd but … whats wrong with you, you were never like this when you trained me" Claus informed him, and said information began angering Kin.
"Oh that's right, forgive me child, but I would like for us to discuss this somewhere a bit more private, please follow me"
"LOOOOCCRRRRIIAAAA, You're back!" the mouse had jumped at Locria's shoulder and was now cuddling to her.
"Oh my, what're you doing here, you could get hurt, cmon now, we're all going somewhere safer"
The group went into a elevator and it went up until the 70th floor, in this floor there wasn't much but the very familiar pink Shell house of a Magipsy, they all went inside except the mouse who had his own stuff to do, whatever it was he did not say to anyone.
"Welcome to my humble abode" Kin moved forward to Fassad and grabbed him by the wrist.
"Enough! Tell us everything now!" he threatened her.
"My my … for a PK Love user you're quite the rough boy aren'tcha ohohoh" Claus grew red hearing that, as he understood that in another context.
"FASSAD!" Locria looked hurt hearing that name and sat down.
"I Guess it's time to explain everything, you two may want to sit down because this will be a long story" and s they did as told.
"A long time ago, I lived happily with my Magipsy sisters, we were a species with great magical power known as PSI-"
"Do we really have to listen to this, cuz I know my hair is white … ish, but when your over my hair will be white of old age, speed things up please" Claus silently chuckled due to Kin's joke.
"Ahem … as I was saying, us Magypsies were not always boud to earth like we are now, we used to be free spirits … that is until a alien being came to this world with the wish to destroy everything, he went by the name of Giygas, he had once attempted to steal PSI from this wrold seeing as PSI was something only known to his people but when he did so he was known as Giegue a very good being of heart he was … but then he became corrupted by hatred and became Giygas."
"As I said before Giygas had the intent of destroying everything but it had been foretold by the apple of enlightenment that a group of four kids would come and defeat him ... and so it did happen, at least that was what everyone thought. Giygas's hate was still there and he made small uncorrelated events around the world that created hate and sadness among mankind … all to power up a egg of some sorts … and when it hatched an incredible power was born that brought the world to an end but our Magypsie ancestors were one spet ahed steped forward, they captured a being of great power called Dark dragon and locked him in this Island making this the only place that would survive the end of the world, eventually people began coming to this Island and they locked their memories so that there wouldn't be a end of the world here and that was when our Magypsy ancestors gave the role of Needle guardians to me and the other six Magypsies."
"Back then, I never wanted this role, I wanted to live my life happily but, I knew that when The Time arrived that would all end, I hated everything and everyone … that is until I met this young girl"
"She was so nice, so full of life and quite the experienced PSI user, I became friends with her really fast, her name was Hinawa-"
"YOU MET MOMMY AS A CHILD, AND SHE KNEW PSI!?" Both Kin and Claus cut her off as that bit of informartion was too big for them not to ask.
"Ok Children, this wont do … please let me finish up then you can ask your questions" both grew quiet and she resumed her tale.
"Ahem, She was such a nice child, she made me see the world with such a new light, but when I found out she had PK Love I was devastated, she asked me why and I explained to her everything."
"At that moment she looked at me and gave me a big smile, she said 'I don't want to lose you as well Miss Locria, that's why no mather what happens I'll never use PK Love" That made me so happy, knowing I could live my life."
"Eventually she ended up meeting my other sisters and we all grew to be quite good friends … Oh how the years passed by so quickly … it seems like it was yesterday when we became friends and then she was getting married to her childhood friend, oh what was his name ... if my memory isn't failing me I remember it being Flint."
"Not too much later she gave birth to three healthy children, but the sacrifice to do so was great, she sacrificed her PSI so that her children could live and that you could have a mother … I didn't expcet that to happen due to the fact I send Ionia to help your mother give birth to you thr-"
"IONIA HELPED OUR MOTHER!" this time it was only Claus who had an outburst, Kin would've had one too but Claus beat him to that.
Locria looked him with a annoyed look "… Sorry … I'll shut up now"
"... I find it really weird that a Magypsy helped our mother give birth to us ... no offense Locria" Kin sounded scared, almost mortified when he said that.
"None taken, now if you two would stop interrupting me, I can be over with this story" they've only met Locria for half an hour and they could already feel that she was about to be a little passive-agressive, and both of them wanting to avoid that mentally decided to refrain from speaking.
"After your mother lost PSI I realized how much I wanted to stay alive to see this world … that's when I met Porky, he told me that if I told him everything about the Magypsies and if I helped him we could create a group for the best of the people and to help restore the life of the dead world … I believed each and all of his words … we worked together for years but then I started realizing he wasn't as he seemed … I confronted him about that and that's when I was ambushed … when I woke up I couldn't do anything and that … thing … Fassad was who I was then …"
. . .
Silence filled the room and Kin was reluctant to ask anything bu he did "… Are you done?"
"Yes child I am done, but I do have a question, didn't anyone told you about Ionia helping your mother?"
"If anyone did we wouldn't had been that surprised" Claus once again managed to speak before Kin as he still wasn't over that information.
A little bit later both boys were a little bit more calm.
"So Fas- Locria … I know you don't want this but … can you tell us where the last Needle is at"
Both saw Locria's face get filled with sadness.
"All of my work to stay alive was all for naught, all of my suffering as Fassad was a punishment for fleeing my fate, now look at what has happened to this poor Island … once a pure beautiful land, now a corrupted place it is … I thought I could protect them all … I thought that I could avoid everyone from being condemned … but it seems that the fuure was already set in stone … so for that all of my fears, hopes, wishes everything … I'll put them all aside, and face my fate as a Magypsy, please save this Island, I'm counting on you two … The seventh and Final Needle of The Dragon, lays low beneath the ground in a dark sealed cave, a one way path was build, a elevator, that one is unfortunatly where Porky remains … you will have to defeat him … or try to avoid him … but I know he'll figure it out and will go to stop you … so I please beg of you two … do hurry up … And please put a end to this cruel fate this world is receiving"
Both boys knew Locria meant all that she said and both of them nodded in agreement to her.
"There's a elevator behind my house, it will take you all to the 99th floor, there it should be Porky's room, but he is not there, the one you are looking for is in the 100th floor, and the reason I mentioned his room on the 99th floor is cuz there's a elevator there that will help you all avoid the traps he has set up on the 100th floor … please do hurry"
Claus left the house as he was ready to put a end to all of this but Kin had stopped at the door.
"Locria … could you do for me one final wish …" His voice was shaky as he spoke
"Why are you speaking like this Kin … you speak like you know you are going to die"
Kin heard the concern on her voice but ignored it " … Please … try to delay Lucas as much as possible but at the same time make him and his group take the safest path"
"I understand your wish but … you're making it sound like you will die, and that's worrying me"
"Eh … who knows … I might die as I may not die … It would be preferable if I did die" Kin spoke the last part lowly but Locria heard him and before she could confront him he had left.
Kin had run up back to Claus and noticed he had already called the elevator
"Took you long enough slowpoke" Kin smilled hearing Claus joking.
"Oh shut up Claus" he said joking.
Both got on and the elevator started going up, little by little they were growing more and more nervous.
"... Pfew, I was seeing Locria wasn't going to stop speaking, like, she didn't stop, that mentally drained, what about you Kin ..." Kin didn't awnser but he seemed like he hadn't seen food or the sun in years.
" ... I knew it was but, cmon Kin it wasn't that bad, stop being so over dramatic" that managed a smile to creep its way to Kin's face and the before both knew it they were both laughing happily as if nothing were wrong, but that sad happiness came to an end at the exact moment the elevator stopped dead on its tracks.
The doors opened revealing a golden room with red carpets, big crystal clear windows, and alot of paintings of the monarch child Porky Minch, but there was this one thing that caught Claus's eyes, a small glass case and inside it there was a heart shapen golden locket.
Kin on the other hand didn't notice that as he had found something very interesting, he found Porky Minch's personal diary and he was using his PSI to read all it had as fast as he could and once he finished he knew Claus couldn't read what was in there because if he did he might doubt fighting Porky, so he hid the diary.
Claus went to that glass case and opened it, he took the locket and opened it and saw his family picture in there making his eyes well up with tears, Kin noticed this and approached his brother.
"Seems like you found your stolen locket Claus … be sure to not let anyone take it again" Claus nodded and placed the locket where it belonged, he wore his locket once again.
He turned around to his little brother and smiled "Let's go Kin, let us put an end to this nightmare"
Both began once again to search for said elevator. They kept searching, moving closets around, the exaggeratedly big paintings and the banners with the Pigmask insígnia and eventually the found it … but the elevator door seemed quite rusty and when they tried calling the elevator it didn't respond.
"Hmm seems like it's out of order … I Guess we'll have to take the other path Kin" his brother gave him a thumbs up and they left the room then they started following the path allowing them to go up.
Eventually the reached this golden room with something odd blocking thier path, a giant pig of some sorts, it resembled a Einswine thought it did had red eyes, spider like legs and black pincers.
"Oh no … Its NKC-02"
"Huh?" Kin began heading towards the cyborg pig like machine to join up with Claus as he assumed that the machine had to be there for combat.
"Oh right you don't know anything about that thing, well long name is Natural Killer Cyborg 02" Kin's thought was right, the name said it all.
"So I'm guessing that is a strong enemy and if that's NKC-02 where's NKC-01?"
Claus shifted his look from his brother when he looked at him "… you're looking at him"
"Claus … I'm so sorry for asking that … and remember that you are a human no matter what others say" Seeing that Claus was still not looking at him and he seemed disturbed, Kin sprinted towards his brother hugged him.
"No matter what others think you'll always be mine and Lucas's big brother, remember Claus, only what we think of you matters, what others think doesn't matter at all" he embraced his brother harder as to assure to him that he was not lying.
Claus returned the hug "Thanks Kin for not giving up on me"
"How could I give up on you, I love my family and I'll do anything for them" he replied
"So … how are we supposed to pass by NKC-02?" realising he was still hugging Kin he released him and slowly walked towards the machine.
"NKC-02 is a strong and brutal machine Porky ordered to create after he saw it in a dream, you won't see another machine or chimera so powerful as this, other then me of course and ... Porky's mecha ... don't let its size foll you, its quite fast, and its End of the Century Beam is extremely powerful, but there is one great weakness to NKC-02"
Kin's interest had peaked "And … what would that be"
Claus gave a powerful kick to one of NKC's legs sending it flying out of the machine and making the machine fall "It has a high energy consumption so it's always turned off, Porky needs to turn it on from where he is and from what I can see he is not monitoring this area so lets get a move on"
"Wait Claus … if you don't mind I would like to break NKC-02 a little bit more … Lucas will have to come through here so … it would be wise to destroy this now" Kin drew his sword and began attacking the machine, Claus seing that he had a point joined in and as NKC-02 was offline they had no problem at all.
It took them about 5 minutes to make sure it was broken enough, the glass around its brain was completely broken, all the legs had been pulled off, from the body most of the wiring was out and it was now starting to leak oil.
The two were now on the floor breathing heavily after attacking the machine without mercy "Wow Claus you had some pent up anger in you … how do you feel now"
"Pretty … Good" he responded in between breaths.
"So you feel pretty and good?"
"Shut up" jokingly Claus punched him in the arm and they shared a laugh once again.
Not too long after they were up again and they wasted no time as they proceed into the next room, it was a long hallway but it didn't took them long to reach the end, then they went to the next room.
"What is this?" The room had a river a boat to ride on and alot of items displayed.
"This is what Porky calls the Earthbound museum, its full of stuff from his past"
"Ok … who in their right mind, puts a museum on their evil base, right BEFORE we're about to reach him … I mean if there was someone here explaining everything I would understand 'oh hey, Porky wants us to know why he does what he does so this is here' but do you see any person slash machine slash whatever to explain all of this" that got Claus thinking
"Hmm, now that you mention it … its kinda dumb"
"SEEE, even you agree!"
They then decided to stop troubling themselfs with that and they got on the boat, and there was a item that triggered something in Kin, it was this big spider like machine that looked like it was meant to be used from the inside "Not too long now, heheh" he heard a voice in his head and he tried to discreetly look around so that Claus wouldn't notice.
When the boat stopped they got off and the went into the next room, it had this pencil statue, a Instant revitalizer and a steel door with vines on top of it and it seemed out of place.
"After this door we'll be in the hallway that'll lead to Porky … Kin I have a request for you"
"What Claus?"
"… Let me be the one fighting Porky … if you want you can defeat whatever help he has but … let me beat Porky"
"Okay" he simply said.
Claus was surprised he accepted his request so easily and without any sort of emotion, then he realized Kin was waiting for him at the door.
The two went inside and saw the long gray hallway, it had vines growing everywhere, the place was so cold, they went up the stairs in front of them and they font the final door, they went inside and there was a big steel room, vines on the top and in the middle of the room there was this machine with spider like legs.
"Spankety, Spankety, Spankety, Oh how fun it'll be to watch these fools running from place to place trying to find a way to me, little do they know I'm going to make the go through all the floors, ahah *cough, wheeze* … eh .. Ehehehe … Oh I'll have fun once their here"
The duo had found Porky but they were in luck as he didn't notice them and Claus wasn't going to let this pass, he wanted to end this as soon as possible.
"PK Love Omega!" a blue Light came out of his chest landing on the floor creating a powerful bright blue hexagonal shaped energy dealing severe damage to Porky and alerting him to his unexpected guests.
"*cough, wheeze* Well well, look what we have here, the last of the brothers" Porky told as he refered to Kin.
Kin looked around and pointed a finger to himself "Yes you *cough, cough* … attacking me on the back like that ... just like a coward you loooooser" he felt one of his eyes twitch after being called a loser.
"Okay, first of all, what're you, seven, let me tell you for a seven year old your way too fat, have you even looked at your skin looks like you came out of a cript after years of sleep, have you seen your old man hair, I mean I know I have white hair but still I'm young you fat old decrepit fart" Anger began boiling inside of Porky and when porky was about to come with a comeback for his intruder Kin pointed his finger to the right where the smoke was starting to calm down and Porky couldn't believe his eyes.
"W-What … What're you doing you stupid monster, grrr no matter, attack him, attack the one who dishonored your Master!" Claus pointed his arm canon to Porky and shot him making him back away.
"I remember everything now, and I'll never be under your control ever again!" Porky was gritting his teeth as he realized he had been lied by his scientis.
"Those damned LIARS *Cough, Cough* heartless they said ... won't remember a thing they said ... IMMA PUNISH THOSE BASTARDS AFTER I *Cough, Wheeze* ... after I defeat both of you" before the actual battle started Kin couldn't believe how a sick old man like that behaved like a toddler AND caused so many problems.
"Porky Bots!" he shouted causing a good amount robots that look like Porky to fall from the ceiling, this caused Kin to focus on the battle and caused Claus to draw his sword as they were about to enter a fight "Porky bots *Cough, Cough* … attack!" the bots jumped toward Claus but something so fast that it was unseable hit them all backwards.
"W-What?!" Porky made his spider mech turn around when he heard a sound of something non metal falling to the floor.
Kin was there putting his sword back, and got into a position where his hand has almost grabbing the handle of his sword
"Sorry to bust your big fat bubble, you smelly old fart, the bubble is you by the way, but I'll be taking on your pathetic Porky bots, my brother will handle you, and I gotta wish him good luck, because there's no way anyone would be safe around a decrepid fat guy like you" Kin drew his sword and ran to the crowd of Porky bots slashing one after the other.
Porky once again felt his blood boil but a sound of something charging up made him focus back on reality, he looked towards where the sound was coming from and saw that Claus had finished charging to the max his arm cannon.
"Eat this Porky!" PSI bullet after PSI bullet were shot from his canon arm, and due to the fact he looked in time Porky was able to make his spider mech dodge the multiple attacks.
"Grr … PK Thunder Omega!" his thunder sword lit up upon casting his PSI, he pointing the blade towards Porky and four powerful thunder bolts were shot.
Porky once again made his mech jump away from the bolts but … Claus had been practicing his PSI with Ionia and he had learned a few new tricks ... grinning, he moved his sword up towards Porky once again and all his thunder bolts took a sharp turn skyward allowing them all to hit Porky.
Porky was now in trouble, the legs of the mech where refusing to move, if only he knew he was going to be attacked he would have been able to place his mech into battle mode so that this wouldn't happen.
Claus seeing Porky's distress began running towards him, sword in hand, ready to strike him down but Porky had more tricks up his sleeve. The top of the mech revealed 4 metalic claws and they all attacked Claus giving him no choice but to defend.
Kin on the other hand was having a easier time with the easier enemies, he had only been hurt once due to the exploding bots after being delt enough damage, but hem ade sure not to be hurt again by the reflection of a old child monarch.
"Claus is in trouble … I did promise not to take Porky on but a lil' help won't hurt"
He pointed his hand downwards creating a strong current of wind sending all the bots around him backwards and some even fell down and imitated a child screaming and crying.
"... What ... The ... Living ... Heck ... Ugh, I have no time for this ..."
"PK Thunder Materialization … Bow!" the thunder circled around him and went to his hand making a electrifying bow, he drew the bow back and shot a arrow upwards, then his eyes began glowing.
The arrow dove towards Porky and broke one of the claws then it stopped mid air quickly turning and shooting to another claw breaking it up, then it repeated the same action until there were no more claws left and then it hit Porky sending him back.
Claus looked at where the arrow came from and saw Kin who winked at him and went back to attacking the bots.
The attack from Kin had unexpected results as it activated the battle mode of Porky's mech "*Wheeze, Cough* Now … you're gonna get it!" the mech shot forward and it was pretty fast for the size it had, but Claus couldn't be distracted by that, he quickly activated his jets and flew away from a dangerous impact, he landed behind Porky and came back to back withhis brother.
"How're you doing Kin?" Kin trew his sword hitting perfectly a Porky bot on the head making it fall to his knees and blow up.
"I'm done with mines, this wasn't even a work out for me ... I guess my old self was right, if the Pigmasks were so weak their leader couldn't be THAT tough ... how're you holding up?" Porky's eyelids twitched as the anger builded in him.
"I HEARD THAT YOU STUPID LITTLE BRAT!"
"Right back at you old fart" Kin replied with a grin that was rapidly growing as the room was filled with raging screams of Porky filled the room.
"So ...?"
"... Not so well, I expected to have the upper hand after that PK Love Omega but it seems like I was wrong" Kin felt a sharp pain throughout his body making him fall to his knees, luckily for him Claus had his back turned to him so he couldn't see him.
"Awww Is kinny boy and his badass brother on a tight spot … awww lemme help you eheheheh"
Porky's Mecha turned around and was facing both boys again "My … my perfect images … all gone *cough, wheeze* … you're going to pay for tha- huh?" Claus and Kin were enveloped by this weird light.
"Huh … Kin what's this?" the light grew stronger and it dove passing by the floor and going downwards.
"… this sensation … it feels liks … PK TELEPORT!" realizing what that was Porky's Mecha shot upwards and was grabbed by these pincers as the floor opened and it was shot down to where the boys had escaped.
The duo found themselves in what seemed to be a cave
"… Kin what did you do?"
Kin was as surprised as Claus, it was the first time his PSI went out of his control like that and did that … was he getting stronger … no that was impossible, Kin expelled him from his body … but … how and … why?
"I … I don't know … I didn't do that" For once Claus heard Kin being completely honest, he was just as confused as he was.
"Well … if you don't know then we should find out how to get out of here" Claus approached a elevator that was near the two but there was nothing there to call the elevator.
"Is this … really such a bad place to be in Claus … just think about it, Locria said her Needle was beneath the ground, there was only a one way in being a elevator, and the place where the Needle was was a dark cave so … maybe this is it … maybe we should go further donw the cave and end this all"
Thinking about it all, Kin was right, it all checked out, beneath the floor, elevator, dark cave … and he could feel a strong power in this place so Kin must've been right.
"I think you might be on to something, let's move"
The two kept following the path in front of them, and for some reason time seemed to move slower there, they weren't that far off the elevator but it felt like more time had actually passed.
Eventually they reached what seemed to be a entrance with these symbols they knew nothing about written on the wall, there was a entrance and no door so they decided to go inside and then, they realized what Locria meant by dark cave.
The place they found out was full of dark energy, thunder was falling even though they were underneath the ground, the darkness gathered and made rocks and thunder bolts animated and start moving around to fight.
"This place … its frightening" Claus was shaking, Kin had never saw his brother shaking, only when they mentioned his pas twith Porky.
"Really … I find this place quite cozy" Kin responded with a cocky tone of voice "Ahahahah, Soon, oh so soon" that voice repeated on his head.
"What! You think this place is cozy?!"
"Joke" Kin simply said as the two finally departed to find the Needle inside the cave.
Finding their way on the new unexplored grounds was easy for them since Kin was basically a Needle sensor, he was drawned in by the great power that was coming from what they thought to be the middle of the cave.
Hurrying, the duo made their way through the treacherous paths that the cave held, but upon reaching a wand stretch of land they heard that annoying voice"Not so *Cough* fast!" both flinched as they looked back and where hit with a bomb.
Both cried in pain as that wasn't a regular bomb, it hurt much more.
"Grrr, You bastard!" Kin began running towards Porky, but a antena of some sorts came out of the mech and they couldn't feel their PSI, Kin's sword came in contact with the mech but without being powered by his PSI it only scratched the mech.
"Pathetic" one of the slashed Kin in the chest making him scream.
He fel to the floor but Porky didn't gave him time to react as the mech kicked him at full power sending his body flying into a boulder making him spit out blood alongside the blood that was already leaving his body from his wound.
"KIN NO!" Claus hurried to his brother's side and tried to help him back to his feet not realizing Porky had came closer.
"*Cough, Wheeze* … stupid excuse of a chimera I should've left you to die"
While shaking Claus looked at Porky and then Mech shoved its claw into Claus's belly "A little lesson, Comander" Claus started to cough up blood
"Always get the element of surprise and NEVER turn your back on your foe" the claw once again began raising and then it went down hitting Claus and forcing his body to be shot out of the claw that was still in him.
He fell right next to his brother, but Porky wouldn't allow that to be the end, his hit Kin with all its strenght sending him flying towards Claus, and as Claus wasn't prepared Kin's body hit him and forced him to the edge of the platform.
He once again locked eyes with Porky and was met with his foul grin.
A canon on the mech had been charging for a while now, it pointed at the twins and since both hadn't regained their composure it was an easy shot.
Claus attempted to shield his brother from the blast but to no avail, the blast propelled them both to fall off the platform.
Time felt as if it had slowed down, just to torture them as they fell into their doom, then as if fate itself mocking the two they heard Porky's laughter echoing after he heard Claus's scream as they fel into the void … that was the last thing they would hear …
Author Notes: This was supposed to have come out sooner then it did ... I AM REALLY SORRY. When I was writting this chapter I had it almost done in december of 2017, if we're talking in percentages it was 92%, but since it was Christmas and then New years, I didn't work on anything as I wanted to spend time with my family, then, stupid me had to come in the picture, when school started again for me, and that was on the second week of january, I finished the chapter but, I wanted to fix some small mistakes but then, without realizing Iwas dumb and I overwrote the entire chapter with a school project by accident.
I only realized the mistake on january 25th because of school projects and tests, but when I did realize the mistake I had done I tried to find if I had any backups aaaannndd ... I didn't, that made me angry with myself and as I had january 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th free of school projects or tests I decided to finish the chapter on those days and have everything in order but ... I was dumb I didn't write on those days and I've been speed writing this chapter base on memory, notes and the last chapter since the third week of february.
I only got the chapter done this week, since I've finished all my tests, and I the final school projects are also to present this week so, I'll have a bit of free time for the next chapter.
Please do forgive me (Or not, you can judge me if you want) and I will try my best not to comit this mistake again.
As for updates, the next chapter won't come out soon (by that I mean, tomorrow or this week, maybe this month, idk) and as I have said on previous chapters I will stop giving myself dates to finish these chapters ... other news regarding next chapter … it sadly might be the ending chapter of this story.
Now I wish everyone a good day, the rest of a good week/month, I am really sorry for the wait, and see you all next chapter that might likely be the last ... probably ... bye everyone.
