I believe I can fly-(falls)
SMACK!
…
Hi, it's Aeron Solo (Axel's brother) here. Axel was trying to jump off something high and fly over the rainbow, but he ended up falling and dying. When I reincarnate him, I'll let you know. In the meantime, just enjoy this chapter.
PS: My brother's friend Ben, who a character is based on, is a serious One Piece fan. And he insisted that Axel put in some One Piece elements. But please don't report us for having more than one theme.
"I think we should go this way," Aeron said, pointing. "When taking forks, you should always take right."
"And why's that?" Hanna asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Because in all my life, whenever I went on a left fork, something terrible has happened to me," Aeron replied, walking down the designated path. "So, you should always take right."
Meanwhile…
"DARN IT!" Gaea shouted, throwing a childlike tantrum. "ALL THE TRAPS WERE ON THE LEFT PATH!"
"Next time, I develop the security system," Luna said. "You made it too unbalanced."
"But all the important stuff was on the left path!" Gaea protested.
"Well, you still should have put some traps on the right," Luna replied. "I guess we may have to take matters into our own hands. But first, we contact Lord Tabuu."
"I have a bad feeling about this," Anabel said quietly, walking after Aeron.
"Well, obviously, we could take care of it easily!" Sam said. "Because I'm a real-"
"YOU SAY THAT ONE MORE TIME AND I WILL KILL YOU!" Ben shouted, suddenly yanking out a daito and pointing it at Sam's throat.
Everyone stopped. It was astonishing for Ben to do such a thing, but the weapon itself brought awe. Its guard was circular, and the hilt was a pure white. It truly was a magnificent sword, yet all of them were stricken by something else:
It was Wado Ichimonji, the Straight Road of the Harmony. As well as one of the 21 finest blades in the world (Zanpaku-to not included).
"How long have you been concealing that?" Aeron asked after a long silence.
"I always keep them with me," Ben said.
"Them?" Aerín asked. "What are you talking about?"
Cynthia sighed. "For those of you who don't know, Ben's last name is…Roronoa. Does that tell you anything?"
"It certainly does," Hanna said. "That sword, Wado Ichimonji, was in the hands of Roronoa Zolo. And it was passed on through his family, and now you, his descendent, have his three swords. That's how it is, right?"
Ben sheathed his sword. "That could be. Or maybe I don't have all three swords. What's it to you?"
"You dare point a sword at me?" Sam said, his voice now clearly holding anger.
Ben looked at him, his eyes hard as the sword he had at his side now. "What are you going to do about it?"
"You two, STOP!" Aeron shouted, planting his sword in the ground.
But there was nothing even Aeron could do. Time seemed to slow down as Ben twirled his sheath over his head, pointing it point-down towards the ground, his left hand going to the sword hilt.
The words Ben uttered next were chilling: "Itto-Ryi lai: Shishi Sonson (One sword style Draw and Resheath technique: Lion's Song)."
He was gone the next second. And then a group of Cipher Peons fell, their swords all shattering and breaking.
Sam was stunned by this. "You had such a power and you never used it?"
Ben's response was to slash him. But there wasn't even a mark, to Sam's utter shock.
"A swordsman cuts what he wants to cut, and protects what he wants to protect. The Legendary Swords will always stay true to it. Remember that," Ben said, walking away.
…
"So, who says we get cake after this?" Ben asked, suddenly going goofy again.
*insert record scratch here*
"Wow, way to ruin the mood, Ben," Hanna said. Everyone began laughing, except Sam, who was kind of mad now.
"Okay, let's go," Anabel said. "I think our future looks a bit brighter."
The others began to walk off, but Gardevoir hung back, glancing at the corner they just went by.
Hm…I think someone's following us…She closed her eyes, and then they reopened, glowing red. Then she closed them again, and the glow faded. Yep, somebody's following us. But not for long!
She quickly darted into another corridor and hid behind the corner.
Haku walked forward. "I think we took another wrong turn," he sighed. "We've been getting close to his reiatsu, but it seems when we're closest it's only a dead end."
"What else can we do?" Hyoshiro asked. "Level everything until we find them? That would get noticed too easily."
They started discussing things to do. Gardevoir waited as their voices rang out closer to her. Then they were on the other side of the corner, and she made her decision.
Gardevoir whirled and brought both her fists back, filling them with electricity. THUNDER PUNCH!
"Wha-" "HOLY S-"
ZZZZZZZT!
Both fell. Gardevoir watched them, then ran off after Aeron.
"HOLY (explicative removed)!" Ben shouted, looking out. "WHAT IN THE NAME OF GRILLED RICE BALLS HAPPENED HERE?"
The maintenance tunnel, totally decimated after Axel's brawl, lay before them. The bridge spanning it was shattered, and pipes were snapped, sending liquid everywhere. Cable boxes sparked out violently, and steam jetted from cartridges. Debris littered the bottom, with all the catwalks now broken.
To put it plainly, it was impossible to safely get across now. "What could have caused this?" Aeron wondered, looking out on the destruction.
Hanna held out her hand, and then a feather fell into her hands. "Look at this, guys…"
Everyone looked over at the silvery, somewhat translucent feather in Hanna's hand. Anabel frowned. "I think it's…vibrating."
"This is weird," Ben said. "What kind of bird has this kind of feather-a vibrating and translucent silver one?"
Aeron looked at Ben. "I guess no one told you. It's Axel's feather."
"WHAT?" Ben shouted. "Axel's no bird! How would he have feathers?"
"Remember Axel's Bankai, and how it gives him wings?" Aeron reminded him. "Well, the feathers tend to drift off every now and then, only to be replaced by more. They also can be shot out as bullets, or Axel can use them as a shield. And Axel has a ridiculous wingspan, so it isn't that hard."
"Whoa…" Cynthia said. "Well, I envy Axel now, because we really could use his wings."
"No worries!" Ben shouted. "I can easily get to the other side with my skills from track!"
"How?" Aeron asked.
"Like this!" Ben shouted, running at the platform and taking a flying leap. "I believe I can fly-"
SPLACK!
Ben fell MANY meters short of the platform, smashing hard into the cluttered floor on the bottom. "29 feet!" a track guy shouted as he ran over and measured. "It's a new record!" He ran off, allowing the others to stare at him.
"That idiot," Hanna growled. "Oh well, I suppose I'd better do things my way."
"How?" Cynthia asked, looking at her. "Are you going to walk on the air or something?"
"Actually, yes," Hanna said.
"WHAT?" everyone except Aeron and Anabel shouted.
Hanna put her hand out, and then stepped off the platform. Everyone except the above mentioned gasped.
But Hanna just stood there on the air. She turned to them. "It's alright. You can walk here."
"Really?" Aerín asked, putting her foot out into the void. She gasped in surprise when her foot hit something solid and invisible. "This is weird!"
"We can walk on the air?" Cynthia asked, walking over the void. (but not towards the other side). Suddenly, she screamed as she fell, as if there wasn't a platform.
Aeron's hand shot out like lightning, grabbing her and pulling her back to safety. "Sorry, this bridge doesn't have sideguards. Just keep walking towards the other side."
"What about Ben?" Aerin asked.
"That can easily be solved," Hanna said, walking towards Ben. She stopped where, unseen, the platform of solid air also stopped. Then she thrust out her hand, and Ben was suddenly catapulted into the air. She caught him and deposited him on the bridge.
"How did we do that?" Sam asked. "That was the most amazing thing I've ever seen! I didn't know we could walk on air-"
"Actually, it's thanks to me that we did that," Hanna said.
"WHAT?" everyone except for Aeron and Anabel (again) shouted.
"Hanna has an ability which I'm not sure any of you have heard of before," Aeron explained. "It's known as Fullbring."
"Fullbring?" Aerín asked. "What's that?"
Hanna held out her hand, and then suddenly the debris spun into the air and connected itself to the platform, creating a new bridge (though out of junk). "Everything gives off a song, the thing that defines its life. By altering the song to my liking, I can change the properties of things."
"But air doesn't live!" Sam shouted. "So how-"
"Should I dumb it down to existence for it to make more sense?" Hanna asked.
"I think that would work," Aeron said. "Anyways, let's keep going."
"Ow…" Haku groaned, getting up. "That absolutely sucked."
"It's never a pleasure to get Thunder Punched," Hyoshiro replied, using his katana to prop himself up. Might I note that the tsuba was green, the guard was a four pointed star, and the sheath was dark blue?
"Well, it seems Aeron and the others are far away now," Haku said. "And Axel's pressure rose extremely high, meaning he lifted off his limiter. His opponent's reiatsu also dropped sharply, so it seems he won. But now it seems he deactivated his Bankai and put the limiter back on."
"It seems Axel's increased in power," Hyoshiro said. "Or have we been out of combat for too long, and now we're unused to how it feels?"
"I don't know, but we'd better find the others quickly." Haku was already walking off. "I have a feeling we'll be facing major problems now…"
Aeron's hand darted out so fast the others were unable to stop. Anabel crashed into him, causing Sam to crash into her, Cynthia to crash into Sam, Ben to crash into Cynthia, and so on, until there was a massive pileup with Aeron at the bottom.
"Ow," Aeron muttered, pulling himself out of the pileup. "That hurt."
"Could you tell us why you did that?" Anabel asked, thoroughly annoyed.
"I hear something…" Aeron said. "Let's keep going, but be quiet, and stick to the shadows."
They slowly tiptoed down the corridor to find a glass wall, and down below, on the other side was a room with many consoles again. But there was a massive screen on a wall, and two girls-one in green and brown, one in a lab coat-stood in front of it.
Projected on the screen was a bald, clearly old man…or was it a man? Its body appeared to be made of blue energy, and there was a strange silver and black core in the center with red rings circling it. He appeared to be in a place of mottled black and purple.
His voice was chilling as he spoke: "It seems the Shinigami and their friends that were spotted the previous day have gotten into the lab. Your security system obviously is flawed."
The girl in the lab coat's voice betrayed none of the anger she clearly felt at that remark. "It was not the security system that failed us, Lord Tabuu, but rather Shooter's incompetence. He was the one who attacked them, and yet they lived. We shouldn't have relied on him to deal with them." Her fist clenched.
"Do not talk to me in that tone, Luna," the blue guy said calmly. "But in this case, you are correct; Shooter is responsible for the invasion of Hitsugaya Toshiro."
"It's a pain that Kurosaki Ichigo blew up the lab, and now we have to clean up after these guys again," the girl in green and brown complained. "Even Aeron Solo's shown up on the scene."
"Aeron Solo? How could he get in?"
"He was with his brother, who IS-LGA battled and lost against," the girl in the lab coat said. "Clearly we have to train IS-LGA and further his corruption."
"Hm…if Axel Nightblazer could defeat him…" began the blue guy.
"That's not all," the girl in the lab coat continued. "His reiatsu already was up high because he was using his Bankai, but then it increased even further."
"Limiter release," the blue guy said. "I suppose that's a success, forcing Nightblazer to unleash more of his power. If there are other results, make contact."
"Yes sir," the girl in the lab coat said stiffly.
"Hai~" the other girl said in a carefree tone. With that, the screen went dark, and the two girls turned to face each other.
Okay, a more accurate description of the two. There probably wasn't much more to say about the girl in the lab coat, other than she had blue shades and black hair, and her lab coat went past her knees.
The other girl had brown hair down to her shoulders and brown goggles with green lenses and straps. Her eyes were brown, and she wore a sleeveless green shirt with brown portions near her midriff. She also had a blue scarf, brown shorts, and a green vest-sort of thing. To simplify things, with the colors mentioned above, she looked sort of like the female character from Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs.
Did I also mention that the brown haired girl also had two Capture Stylers from above mentioned game?
"Well, I guess it's up to us to stop the Shinigami, Luna," she said.
"Gaea, don't forget Aeron Solo," the girl in the lab coat, who at this point you should have realized was Luna, said.
"What? It's not like he's standing above us at this point."
"OR IS HE?" Aeron shouted, causing both to look up at him in shock.
"YOU IDIOT!" Anabel shouted, smashing him hard in the head.
WHAM!
"OOF!" Aeron shouted, and he smashed forward…through the glass, breaking it.
"What-? Oh no!" Hanna shouted, grabbing him, but that caused her to fall out as well, because Aeron was just out of reach.
Ben grabbed onto Hanna, but doing so caused him to fall, and this repeated with Cynthia, Sam and Anabel. Result: all that was anchoring them to the upper level was Anabel's feet.
"Too…much…weight…" Anabel groaned.
"I'll help!" Aerín shouted, running over a wool carpet. She touched Anabel's shoe.
STATIC SHOCK!
"AAAAAAAAAH!" Anabel shouted, recoiling. And the static traveled across the line, causing everyone to let go. Guess what happened next?
"CRAAAAAP!" Aeron shouted.
Everyone piled up on the lower level, with Aeron at the bottom. Aerín looked down sheepishly. "Uh…whoops."
…
"…are you guys okay?" Gaea asked after an awkward silence.
"I'm just fine," Aeron said, digging himself out of the pileup and brushing dust off his shikahusho.
*insert record scratch here*
"Huh?" Aeron wondered as Gaea and Luna stared at him, gaping.
"Aeron Solo made it here…" Gaea said. "Don't worry, Luna. We can take care of him ourselves."
We? Aeron thought. Who's we, if she's blocking out her ally?
"Are you sure?" Luna asked. "Aeron Solo is very strong."
"He can't stand up to us," Gaea replied. "So…shall you leave the rest to me?"
"Fine," Luna sighed. "We need to do something about the other Shinigami anyway. I will battle Hitsugaya. You clean up here."
"Right," Gaea said as Luna walked to an elevator. "Later, Luna. It'll be over in five minutes."
"Who do you think you are?" Aeron asked warily. "Knowing who I am would be enough to scare most people away. But you…you said you'd defeat me in five minutes. Isn't that overestimating yourself?"
"What are you talking about?" Gaea asked. "It shouldn't be too hard to defeat you. So…shall we get to introductions?"
"Sure," Aeron said. "As you already know, I'm Aeron Solo. And…" He gestured at the others, who were getting up. "These are Anabel, Sam, Cynthia, Ben, Hanna, and…"
Aerín suddenly dropped down from above. "Hi, I'm Aerín. Wanna be friends?"
*insert record scratch here*
Aeron rocked back on his heels, and Gaea began stammering in utter shock. "Uh…what?" Aerín asked.
"Um…I don't know?" Gaea said. Finally, she composed herself. "Alright…now I'll introduce myself."
She held out her hands, and Aeron caught sight of not only Capture Stylers, but also emerald bracelets that flashed out. Suddenly, curved green blades of energy appeared in the air, extending from her fingers like claws.
"I'm Cipher Administrator Gaea. My element is Earth," Gaea said. "Now, shall we get started?"
"You're on," Aeron replied. "You shouldn't be too hard to defeat." He drew his sword, allowing light to shine on the magnificent golden blade.
"I shouldn't?" Gaea asked, seeming mildly surprised. "Then we should." She held out her hands, and the Capture Stylers opened, shooting green beams. She began twirling them around, etching on the ground…
"Oh, no…" Aeron said, hardly daring to believe his bad luck. "Are you a Ranger?"
"Was," Gaea said. "But I stopped when Luna asked me to join." At that point, the symbols on the ground flashed bright green.
"What is…" Anabel began. "What is this?"
For, standing in front of them, was an army of wild Pokémon: Entei, Raikou, Suicune, Ho-oh, Latios, Latias, Lugia (normal one), Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Celebi, Meganium, Feraligater, Typhlosion, Ambipom, Aggron, Floatzel, Toxicroak, Leafeon, Vaporeon, Ivysaur, and Empoleon.
"How did she get all those Pokémon?" Ben shouted. "And a bunch of them are Legendaries!"
"I'll say it again: I used to be a Ranger. And I kept my Stylers with me," Gaea said. "They were modified to be able to use Ranger Signs."
"What're Ranger Signs?" Aerín asked.
"They're ancient runes etched into the ground and infused with a special power to summon Pokémon," Aeron said. "Pokémon Rangers use them."
"So…have you got the nerve to say I'm gonna be easy to beat?" Gaea asked.
Cipher Admin Gaea would like to battle!
Aeron put the sword at his hip and his hand on the base. "It's best not to take chances here! Rule over the Raging Heavens, Tsubasa no Rai-oh (Thunder King's Wings)!"
Immediately, Aeron whipped his hand along the blade, and the sword changed into a double-edged sword with emerald green edges and a gold indent along the length of the blade. The guard also changed, turning into an elongated hexagon at the base of the blade with twin spikes pointing down the length of the blade to the sides, below the area where each edge ends.
"Let's go!" Aeron shouted, pointing his blade at Gaea. "Ikazuchi Chikara (Thunder Force)!" Gold lightning crackled along the blade, then blasted at Gaea, with stray bolts racing around it.
But it hit Gaea, and…nothing happened. Gaea looked at him. "That all? Okay, my turn."
Suddenly, many cuts appeared on Aeron's body. Aeron stared at them in shock, then got ready to attack again. "I see, you're of Earth, so my lightning attacks have no effect. Then I'll take a different approach." He whipped up his hand, bringing icy blue energy to it. "Hama Hyoketsu (Magic Wave: Freeze)!"
A blast of white energy blasted from his hand, and struck the area, freezing and creating a massive glacier. But then…it shattered!
"How did they break out of that?" Aeron shouted.
"Entei. Typhlosion. Moltres. Ho-oh. It appears our opponent is confused," Gaea said. "Show him how it's done. Entei, Moltres, Fire Blast! Ho-oh, Sacred Fire! Typhlosion, Blast Burn!"
Aeron watched in horror as two 5 point crosses of fire, a flaring ripple of flame, and a rose colored fire stream all blasted towards him.
BOOOM!
Aeron was surprised when he saw the blue glow. Then he saw Hanna in front of him, blocking the attack with Eteru no Uta. "Hanna…"
Hanna clenched her teeth, unable to stand up against the massive fire attack for long. I've got to end this quick!
"Ketatamashi Uta (Piercing Song)!" she shouted, and her…beam swords flared bright blue, pulsing a massive blast of solid sound that smashed through the flame and crashed into the Pokémon.
"Go, Aeron!" Hanna shouted as another stream of fire from Ho-oh came flying at her. She spun her blade, smacking it away. "I can hold my ground!"
"I'll get her!" Sam shouted, already in Arcticryo form. He dashed towards the admin, but then Empoleon, Toxicroak, Latias, Latios, and Aggron got in his path. "What the-? Fine, I'll mow you down."
"Latios, Luster Purge! Latias, Mist Ball! Toxicroak, Focus Blast! Empoleon, Flash Cannon! Aggron, just block his way!" Gaea shouted.
"This should be easy," Sam said. He jumped out of the way of several shining rays of light, but then mist exploded in his face. "AUGH! How'd it hit?" He blasted a Blizzard, but the mist blocked it, and a smaller amount of snow blasted out, unable to hit its target because the mist blocked all vision.
"This sucks!" Sam shouted. Suddenly, he saw a purple flash, and then Luster Purge hit dead on, causing an explosion of light. Then there was a silver flash and a red one, and then Focus Blat and Flash Cannon slammed into him, also exploding.
"Grrr…" Sam threw himself out of the mist, pale blue lightning coursing around him in a Freeze Shock. Suddenly, he felt himself smash hard into Aggron. "What the-? Aggron?"
Aggron roared, but his mouth held a silver sphere…
"CRAP!" Sam shouted.
Suddenly, Ben was in front of him, with a daito in both hands, and Wado Ichimonji in his mouth. He brought up a sword with a gold cross-like guard with rounded edges and a silver blade. Sandai Kitetsu (Third Generation Demon Splitter), a blade wicked as it was sharp. It was said to bring death to its owner, and unlike most swords, it appeared to have its own mind, cutting anything.
"What the-Ben?" Sam shouted. He got no response as Ben thrust Sandai Kitetsu into the energy, causing it to explode. Aggron roared in annoyance and then headbutted him. But then Ben's other blade swiped up: Shusui (Clear Autumn Water), a black blade with a flower like guard and red running along the blade; its destructive potential was awesome, its hardness as well. Aggron repeatedly smashed against the blade, and it still wouldn't bend.
"My turn!" Ben shouted through the hilt of Wado Ichimonji. He crossed the blades of Shusui and Sandai Kitetsu in front of his chest and Wado Ichimonji crossing behind them horizontally. "Oni Giri (Demon Slash)!" he shouted, dashing towards Aggron at alarming speed. Aggron couldn't do anything in time.
SLASH! SLICE! DICE!
Two descending diagonal slashes. One horizontal slash to the left. But Aggron brought his head against the three blades, and they all were caught at the same point, unable to do anything.
"Crap! He found the technique's weakness!" Ben shouted. "And Aggron hide is really tough…"
"Rice ball what?" Sam shouted. (Oni Giri also means "rice ball", a Japanese snack.)
"SHUT UP! I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE SAY THAT!" Ben raged, smashing his foot into Aggron's face. Aggron stumbled back, then recovered and swiped with his claws. Ben dodged, then tucked his sword's hilts into his armpits, and pointed them at Aggron. "Ushi Bari (Bull Horns)!" he shouted, and charged. Several tiny marks appeared. Aggron roared in annoyance, then turned and ran at Ben. Ben narrowed his eyes and kept fighting.
Sam had no time to watch. He jumped back as a Luster Purge flew at him, then ducked underneath many multicolored needles (Psybeam). There's got to be a way to defeat both of these two, he thought. Perhaps if I tried a new move…His attention was drawn to the many melting pieces of ice from Aeron's Hama Hyoketsu, lying on the ground. That'll work!
Sam began to freeze the water, however he froze it up above his two attackers. In the meantime, he dodged a massive storm of meteors, endured a powerful mental attack, and counterattacked when the two tried to slash him with their steely wings.
"NOW!" Sam shouted, roaring. Immediately, icicles dropped from the ceiling, far too many in number to dodge. Latios and Latias looked up in shock before being buried by icicles.
"Oh yeah!" Sam shouted before jumping at Empoleon.
As his friends battled the Pokémon, Aeron ran towards the Admin, dodging attacks. Suddenly, Typhlosion, Feraligater, Meganium, and Ambipom barred his way.
"Crap!" Aeron muttered, moving to get his sword. He needn't have bothered.
Suddenly, he heard "HYDRO PUMP!" and found a torrent of water crashing into Typhlosion, knocking him back.
"What?" Aeron shouted as Axel's Daikenki jumped in front of him. "Daikenki? What're you still doing here?"
"Axel didn't have time to recall us," Daikenki explained as Chikorita, Lucario and Ninetales landed nearby. "So we're here to help. We'll take care of these guys. You keep going!"
"Right!" Aeron shouted. "Thanks guys!" He kept running, but then Lugia, Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno came in front.
Aeron moved for his sword again, but then Cynthia stepped up. "Aeron, Anabel and I will deal with these four. Keep moving, and don't lose now!"
"Thanks, Cynthia," Aeron said. He dodged a blast of gales and ran through the battle, but now it was Entei, Raikou and Suicune in his way.
"No choice…" Aeron pointed his finger at the three, and a circle of green light pulled in around it. "Shinsei Bakuha (Nova Blast)!" Three pulses of green outlined with gold shot from his finger, smashing the three away.
"Now you're wide open!" Aeron shouted, running at Gaea. She responded with a casual look and a flick of her wrist, slashing with the energy blades. They ripped through the floor, through consoles, through everything they touched…
Crap! Aeron thought, and he jumped away, but then Gaea was flipping through the air above him, slashing with the other hand. Aeron thrust out his hand, freezing a wall of ice in front of the blades, but they got through that, too. Then the other one was behind him, and he hurled himself sideways out of the way of the two sets of energy claws.
"What's wrong?" Gaea taunted, landing. "Is the great Aeron Solo running? Your brother was doing a lot better, it seems."
"Say that again," Aeron growled. "Get overconfident, and soon you'll be lying down face down in the dirt!" Green wind swirled around his blade, and he charged. "Reppuzan!"
"Lying face down in the dirt?" Gaea replied. "Say that again."
"That again," Aeron replied, suddenly hurling himself to the side. A wave of earth blasted upwards where he used to be. "There, I said it."
"No you didn't," Gaea replied, jumping at him and slashing. "If you said it, you'd say it like this: IT."
Aeron parried the attack. "You're as bad as my brother with jokes, you know that?" He jumped back and pointed his sword at her. "But this fight ends now."
Bright white light gathered at the tip of Tsubasa no Raioh, turning into a massive fireball. He brought it back, then slashed hard. "Nagareboshi (Shooting Star)!"
A massive, unconventional fireball blasted from the tip of Aeron's sword, racing quickly towards Gaea. "It's over, Gaea!" Aeron shouted.
Suddenly, a jet of water hit the fireball, extinguishing it. Aeron whirled and saw Vaporeon and Leafeon coming his way. "What? There still were some left?"
Then Celebi floated in. Her eyes glowed, but green and blue light was radiating off her. Aeron had no time to wonder why, because suddenly he was blasted backwards with a mental blast.
"AUGH!" Aeron shouted. That was a Psychic, but even for a Celebi, it was strong…
Vaporeon and Leafeon suddenly attacked with twin swirling balls of mottled purple, dealing Aeron TWO Shadow Balls at once. Aeron was just getting up when a pillar of leaves smashed into him, slashing him in many places.
Aeron got back up and then began to call water to his sword. "Uzumaki Kyouran (Whirlpool Frenzy)!" he shouted, sending a vortex of water flying at the admin.
Celebi and Leafeon suddenly glowed, and the water turned green and flowed into them. Giga Drain!
Aeron held his hand out. "Hama Hyoketsu!" Why will none of my attacks get through against these guys?
But just as the cold began to flare out, Vaporeon blasted it with a Hydro Pump, dispelling the energy. Aeron understood when he saw Leafeon staring at Vaporeon, eyes glowing green.
They're using Helping Hand to power up each other's attacks! So that's why I'm not able to defeat them!
Aeron suddenly saw a massive wave of earth rising, and dodged it, but then he saw green dust heading towards him. Crap! It cut him in several places, but Aeron could do nothing when Gaea was suddenly behind him.
SLASH!
Many deep wounds appeared on Aeron's back, and he fell.
Gaea looked triumphant. "So, we were able to defeat you. Alright, Aeron Solo's down. Vaporeon, Leafeon, Celebi. Come on, let's take out the rest."
"No…Aeron lost?" Ben shouted.
"But Aeron was like the strongest of the strong…" Sam whispered.
"It's the end..." Anabel groaned, sinking to her knees.
Gaea smiled. "Don't worry, you won't die. 'Course, I don't know what my superior will tell me to do with you."
"You could start by surrendering."
THOOM!
Everyone was forced to their knees as a powerful force smashed down on them, unseen. Green and gold light filled the room. And the most alarming part was this:
Aeron Solo was the one giving it off. And he was getting back up.
"You're still up?" Gaea shouted. "Whatever. We'll defeat you easily."
"You say that so soon," Aeron said, raising his sword and pointing it skyward. "But this is the difference between us. You will find, Gaea, that nothing is always as it seems…"
"What makes you say that?" Gaea asked.
She got a massive burst of green from Aeron's sword in response, smashing against the ceiling.
"What I'm saying is…the difference between us is this!" Aeron shouted. "BANKAI!"
To Be Continued
Hmph. He could have come up with a better ending than that. Oh well, his loss if his hit levels go down.
I HAVE RETURNED FROM THE DEAD! XD
Ah, so you've returned, Axel. Okay, over to you now. I'm gonna get cake. Later.
Okay, thanks for saying stuff while I was away, Aeron. Alright! Now Aeron's going to release his Bankai, so you know this is going to be awesome!
Yes, I just had to bring in Pokémon Rangers: Guardian Signs. I really don't know zip about the game, but I decided mainstream games and the Coliseum Verse wouldn't cut it alone.
Hope you enjoyed this chapter! And remember to re-
*insert record scratch here*
Wait…whoops, I talked at the wrong time! This is the Random Bonus Story segment time! Gotta get out of here!
Random Bonus Story…XD
"So, how's the liberation of Orussia going?" Axel asked, sitting in front of the computer.
"Not too great," came the response from the computer. "The Neuroi are attacking harder every time."
"Should I come to help, Rinna?" Axel asked.
"Nah. Think we can take care of it," his friend Rinna replied through the computer…and through Skype.
Axel sighed. "You've lived thousands of years like I have, and still you're reckless as ever…you and Minna are really different."
"Well, that's because paperwork affects Minna's brain," Rinna said, grinning. "And you're one to talk about being reckless. You and Aeron are tops there."
"Doh," Axel muttered. A smile suddenly crept onto his lips. "So…I hear you broke your Strikers?"
"Shut up, Axel," Rinna muttered.
"Hey, who're you talking to?" Sam asked, walking in.
"Oh, hey Sam," Axel said, turning, but unconsciously covering the screen. "I'm having a conversation with my friend."
"Hey! Who're you talking to over there?" Rinna called.
"Oh, right," Axel said. "Rinna, my friend Sam's over here. Sam, she's Rinna. She's a Strike Witch."
"You and your stupid Strike Witches!" Sam said, annoyed. Axel talked often about them, but he rarely gave details.
"They're not stupid," Axel said. "If you knew what they go through each day…" He stopped. What he heard next sent a chill down his spine.
"Hey, Sanya, could I have your Fliegerhammer?"
"Huh? Sure, Rinna…"
"Okay, thanks Sanya. Hey, Axel, move over a little. I wanna say hi to Sam."
"Uh…right," Axel said. "Uh, Sam, come over to the screen. Rinna wants to say hi to you." He got up and quickly left.
Sam looked after him, then walked up to the screen. And then a Fliegerhammer rocket flew out of the SCREEN.
"WHAT THE F-"
BOOOOOOM!
Axel stood just outside the door. "Well, he got what was coming to him," he muttered to himself.
Moral: Don't call Rinna stupid, or she'll hurt you.
Badly.
