Chapter 25:

I looked at Jack, furious to see my apparent crush on the floor at his mercy.

I swiftly took out the soldiers in my way in rage as I made my way towards Jack and the wounded Fuku. I felt something hit me as I felt slightly weak.

"Great, more magic tranquilizers", I said as I sent sharp bones into the soldiers, stabbing them in their hearts. I continued to walk towards Jack, grabbing him with Blue and pulling him away from Fuku as I sprinted towards him.

Being pissed and extremely worried for Fuku at that moment, I acted out of anger, and did a quite foolish action.

One that could've gotten me killed.

I rushed him, dodging oncoming attacks from him as I continued to run. I tackled him to the floor and teleported away with him to a random location. I didn't care where we went, as long as Fuku and the others were safe.

I felt ourselves fall onto the rocky ground of the base of Mt. Ebbott. I quickly up and quickly dodged several lash out attacks from Jack as he threw him back with Blue.

"Remember this place Jack? The place where you chased Chara and I with your xenophobic friends? When you shot me several times after Chara jumped down?"

"Yeah, it's a shame I didn't manage to get that fuck toy before she jumped", I furiously slammed him against a tree before firing three Gaster blasters at him. He swiftly dodged and took out some sort of device to protect himself. I sent some bones towards him.

To my shock, I saw the bones coming right back at me, nearly hitting me.

"Surprised? Magic reflective cuffs. Quite handy dealing with those brats. Now, I'll use them to kill you", Jack sneered before he pulled out his handgun and started firing at me.

I swiftly teleported away, appearing behind him and smacking him in the back of the head with a bone, sending him to the ground with a thud.

"Magic cuffs? I'll beat you with or without them!", I said furiously as I grabbed him with Blue, sending him flying into trees and rocks, taking his hp more and more down.

"How dare come to my school and attack my students with you band of racist xenophobic bastards", I shouted as I turned his soul orange and launched a large wave of fire onto him.

He kept moving, almost as is he knew what happens when your soul turns orange. Whilst he was dodging the fireballs, I took the time to check him.

*Jack

*lvl 23

*95/113 HP

*Is determined on removing you from existence.

I swiftly dodged the knife that came flying towards me, forcing him out of orange, and warp behind him when he fired more bullets at me. He turned around, and I grabbed his gun, throwing it to the floor after getting some distance and piercing the metal weapon with bones.

One less thing to worry about.

I sent more Gaster blasters towards Jack, which me dodged. He managed to reflect one back at me, but lost his balance and fell, sending the magic beam away from its target. I quickly summoned bones under him to kill him, but he quickly moved away, walking through orange bones and letting himself get hit by the blue one.

It was almost as if he had done his research on my attacks.

I summoned a bone staff and rushed the man, attacking him with wide yet defensive swings, trying not to open myself too much to attacks. He grabbed a machete and blocked and defended himself with it. He moved back, dodging more bones and fireballs.

He held both his arms up, shielding himself from a Gaster blaster blast, sending it away towards me, which I blocked with a bone shield. He launched himself towards me, and I dodged the machete, swiftly sending more bones at him, which he dodged and reflected before backing off, trying to think of a strategy.

I knew I could finish him off easily with my full power, but I didn't have my armor, he had those magic cuffs and it would eat my stamina way too quickly.

I couldn't risk it. Not now.

*Jack

*lvl 23

*72/113 HP

*Will not give up on killing you and your friends.

I dodged another reflected projectile as I tried to hit him with the bone staff. Jack dodged once again as I felt a light slash on my chest. I look down to see a slash in my jacket and hoodie, but not my shirt.

He missed my rib cage by a hair.

The fight continued on as the clouds began to darken, becoming heavy with rain. A heavy downpour began as Jack and I were fighting, immediately extinguishing any fireballs I tried to use. I used bones and Gaster blasters to attack him, which he reflected or dodged, slowly getting closer.

I dodged another projectile as I went to attack, but by the time I swung, Jack was gone. I turned around swiftly, before I felt something hard and cold sink between my bones. I was kicked down, feeling immense pain as that familiar red liquid ran down my wound, bleeding onto the ground.

*Serif: 15/1000 HP

Jack kicked me as I slid across the muddy ground, a red trail behind me. He placed a foot on my rib cage, where my wound was, applying pressure, as he sunk his machete in my right shoulder.

*Serif: 10/1000 HP

I hissed in pain as I began to bleed more, and more so as he pulled out the machete.

"Looks like you lost bone bitch. Now I guess I'll kill you then I'll destroy every single person in that school, just because they tolerate your inferior people. Maybe I'll start with your sister", Jack said with an evil glare, his scarred face scrunched up in sadistic delight.

"H-ack-Hey Jack-ass, t-take a look at this...", I said, summoning a Gaster blaster and fired at him as he turned around. It was too late to block as he took the full brunt of the attack.

However, due to my wounds, it didn't kill him, only knocked him out.

I reached my arm out as I felt the magic circulate through my wounded body, thinking about the school, feeling the strain of using my magic.

But I pressed on, despite my mind begging me not too, feeling the fabric of space and time open up and spitting me somewhere else. I landed back in the school, in the gym, where Chara was finishing off the last soldier, defending the students of my class.

Including a wounded, but unconscious Fuku.

I groaned as I got up, wheezing as I took a step towards Chara, who had fear in her face as she saw my wounds.

"I...I got...him...", I muttered out as I fell forwards, into my sister's arms as I drifted into the dark unconsciousness.

*Serif: 5/1000 HP

The last thing I heard was Chara screaming my name.

End of Act V.

Onward to Act VI !
