(Chapter 35-The Gamble)
Connor had been walking with this woman for at least half a day now. The heat of the desert was slowly yet surely beginning to subside. He saw the woman stop in her tracks as she turned to him, her eyes waving with regret and sorrow.
"Shall we stop here tonight? This Terrain has rather strange things that happen if we move throughout the night…" The girl who sat down as Connor was still standing. He reluctantly sat down but his hood still pulled over his face. This woman had worked with the Templars.
"Can you tell me… why were the Assassins brought here? Do you even know?" The Native asked as the girl gave him a half lidded glare. She knew but she never liked talking about it. Since she was a Tiga, she could tell him about Riso.
They sat in silence for a moment as Connor used his Tomahawk and some Fire Dust to start a fire. "Well… you're an Assassin, tell me. Are all of you such nitwits that you and the Templars seek the same goal yet want to obtain it differently?"
Connor raised a brow but understood the meaning, he too once thought that they had the same goal but sadly the ways of making them become a reality is vastly different. He nodded tell her that both sides will never get along but why were they able to in this world.
She told him that there are not true Assassins nor are there true Templars. Both Orders are now combined to compensate for the lost that was made in the old world. Sadly, one side had more power conquering the other into submission.
Connor was shocked to hear that the Assassins in Riso were forced to become Templars. He needed to find away there but as he was about to ask that. He felt the sand below him begin to move, Connor sprung up as did the girl.
"Aiyo… come Assassin! We must keep moving! The night has begun, the Souls of the Fallen are coming to life." She sprinted off into the distance where Connor had to follow. He felt a voice call to him at the back of his head.
"Partner! Run! These things are nothing but a waste of time and energy. Listen closely… I didn't want to tell you this but I have a bad feeling about this place…" Zeke said with a cold tone as he crushed his cigarette.
Connor followed the strange female as he looked back, he saw skeletons the size of children charging at them. His movements were slowed as he kept trekking sand. The female scoffed as she summoned her [Spirit].
"Kamilla!" The spirit grabbed on to Connor and pulled him as the girl continued running. Connor stared at the Spirit that she had. It had a sliver body and gold accents to match it, she noticed the that Connor was day dreaming. She used her Spirit's spare fist to punch him.
Connor felt the impact, he snapped out of his stupor and glared at her. "So am I going to haul your ass through this floor?! Can you start running on your own?!" Connor nodded as he asked for Aveun to lend him his powers. Connor took flight and kept up with her.
"Cool! You can fly! Come on over the hill! Once they can't see us, they'll stop!" Connor dived forward. He felt his wings spread as he soared over the hill, Connor stuck a landing as the girl caught up soon after.
"What are those?" Connor asked as he looked at her with confusion. She sighed as she told him. "The Souls of the Fallen… they feed on living souls. Don't make too much noise or produce too much Aura they may spring for you." She continued to walk forward. Connor stopped for a moment and asked her again.
"Who are you? You may not be a Templar but my Eagle Vision is telling me you are an enemy…" Connor fastened his coat as he gave her a stare down. Kirlia sighed as she turned to him. "Kirlia Tiga… the creator of this Paragon."
Connor unsheathed his blade the moment he heard Creator of this Paragon. He was not only now aware but threatened but took a moment to realize that she wasn't in any sort of battle stance. His blade vanished from his forearm and ended up on her hand.
"A little too quick to jump to conclusions now. Killing me won't make this thing go away." Connor calmed down as she threw the bracer back to him. He swiftly places it back on, he tried to calm down but he was unable to. The person who made all this happen was right in front of him.
"Then, Tell me… what will?" Connor asked as he felt the breeze of the dessert night blow into his hood. She smirked as she stretched out her hand to him. "Since you seem to be so eager… let us skip to the top for a few moments… but only for 2 minutes or he may notice." She said with a level of coldness in her voice. She slowly allowed the Energy of Darkness enveloped her.
As Connor held on they vanished from the place and was replaced with a dark and misty throne room with a giant crystal in the centre. She manifests her [Spirit] as she swiped the crystal. Shay's body fell out.
Connor caught him as the girl spoke quickly. "Take him down to the lower floors… I will stay up here, he may not be in the same place as you but both of you must band together to defeat Belatucadros!"
But as she said that she was smacked to the pillar with great force. Shay vanished but Connor remained. Connor stood up to see Belatucadros true form, the War God smiled as he vanished and kneed Connor in the face.
Connor flew back as he stopped Mid Air to reveal his Turquoise Coloured Eyes. He was now in Thunder Gale. He blasts forward as he punched the War God in the chest but the force he applied seemed to slip off him like water.
"Something the matter, Assassin?" The god spoke as he griped his fist and punched him in the face. Any normal human's neck would have been broken but Connor was no normal human. He smacked against the pillars as he tumbled back.
(Inside the Mindscape)
The two spirits spat out blood as they cushioned most of the damage for Connor. "Ambrosia… can you manage?" The wolf said as coughed, he knew there was no way that they were going to win. This form was already out classed by a cladded-out Shay.
Ambrosia nodded as she stood back up. Aveun watched from the side lines as he spread his wings to find the only person who can fight this but as he was about to do that, the mindscape was blanking out.
(Outside)
Connor was being thrown around like a rag doll, he was never beaten this badly in his life. His breath ragged as he slowly tried to stand but Belatucadros picked him up by his hair and gut punched him. Connor slowly reverted back to his normal state as his eyes went dull.
But before Belatucadros did anything Connor exploded in a golden light as it pushed the War God back. Burning his face with the intensity of the light but as the light fades Connor was down on the floor. Belatucadros growled at the fallen Assassin. "That was a fraction of his full power… what intensity! He shall make a good replacement for Shay."
But somewhere in the darkness of the room, Raven sighed as she vanished back into the shadows.
(Outside of the Paragon)
Stood team RWBY, JPNR and Fisher. Jaune was staring at the tower as he held his Armlet that was on his arm. He sighed as he just continued walking forward, they were only called because Fisher said that RWBY may need a hand.
As they travelled, they passed the first few floors with ease but once they reached the floor that Kai and Ray were on. The place looked a mess. The forest was all burnt down with the two veterans at the centre of the large field.
Ruby rushed to Ray's side while Yang did the same with Kai. Kai slowly stood up and pushed her aside. "It's been… 12 hours… and that fucking thing hasn't gone down…" He picked up his Axe as he stared at a fallen tree.
"Something wrong, Teach? It's just a tree!" Yang smiled as Kai growled at her for been so ignorant, the tree stood up as everyone stood in shock. Kai's expression slowly darkened as he charged at it. The tree's bark was extremely thick, it almost could be considered bullet proof at this point.
The Berserker smacked Kai as he flew to the side. The sound of his bones breaking were audible to the newcomers. Yang charged next but Fisher stopped her and told her. "Yang! Don't be stupid!"
That sudden exclamation from Fisher earned him a stare from the brawler. Then she relaxed as she backed down staring at the Berserker. Team JPNR were also at a stalemate, was this what Team RWBY go through? Everyone besides Jaune who was gripping his Armlet. He felt a strange feeling from it since he entered the Paragon.
As everyone startled as the Berserker came their way. Ruby grabbed the now unconscious Ray and backed off. Yang shook off Fisher's hand and activated her Ember Celica. She threw a volley of punches at the tree. Tearing away it's Bark Armour. Yang's Aura was so calm yet burning.
Ray was coming to as he opened his eyes to see himself resting on Ruby's lap. They were all watching Yang pummel that Berserker. Ray turned his head and watched her as well.
For some reason, it wasn't regenerating. Yang jumped back as she looked at herself. She saw her Aura circulating around her. Her Semblance changed but it felt the same. She took out her compacted mirror. Her eyes… they were pink.
"What the fuck!? Guys?! My eyes are pink!" Yang stared at the beast as she felt a small voice that rung in her head. "You are finally able to utilize the power I gave you…" That was Ziio her voice rung out to her. She remembered that she gave her a power up quite some time ago but she never knew what it was.
With the help of Kai. Helping her with her control her Burning State, the given power was awakened within her. She smirked as she readied to fight the beast but before she charged forward. "Shining State!"
She exclaimed as she gave her team a nod. Ruby and the rest understood
The rest of Team RWBY gripped their weapons. "Let's go, Team!" Ruby charged forward as the checkmate duo followed behind. Ray tried to stop them but Fisher lifted his arm, he smirked as he watched them take down the tree.
"What are you doing, Assan?! They can't take on that thing!" Ray gestured at them who seemed to have a fearful look donned on his face but Fisher sent out JPNR as well. "ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING?!"
"Just watch, they have something, that we don't have…" Somehow Fisher was calm, he seems to have a deep bond with Team RWBY. He believes in them, Ray sighed and just did what he liked take a seat and watch.
(Team RJWPBNYR Versus Berserker)
Jaune pulled up his jacket hood. He somehow made that a habit after Pyrrha and him got together. He tapped Ruby on the shoulder. The look he gave Ruby was one of a General, he was already analysing the enemy.
"So… I'll be the planner… and you'll be the Executioner. Listen up! Team RWBY, Offense. Team? Provide support. Figure out who you need to stick too… I don't have to tell you." Jaune said in a stern tone. Everyone besides Ruby was shocked, since when did Jaune become… so manly. His eyes shorn gold as he issued the order.
Needless to say, Pyrrha was turned on by his hard persona.
Ruby and Nora stuck to each other, Weiss was with Pyrrha, Blake was with Ren and Yang was with Jaune.
Ruby and Nora provided a distraction, Nora was using Smoke Grenades instead of her normal Grenades. These were thick smoke; the Berserker couldn't see anything below its knees. Ruby shot out of the smoke as she used her Scythe to cling on to the beast.
Since the monster could only see Ruby. So, he switched focus, he tried to swat Ruby away but she used her Semblance and moved aside. While she did that, she was also tearing apart the outer bark with her Weapon. The Berserker tore off his own bark as well while trying to swat Ruby off.
As Ruby tore off the upper layer, she loaded her Crescent Rose with Gravity Dust Rounds. She jumped off and turned back to shoot the full magazine at the exposed layer. She was about to drop but Nora Grenade Jumped and readied her hammer like a baseball bat. Nora smacked Ruby who was sent forward as she took into a spinning motion. She tackled the Berserker, Ruby bounced back as she flipped back on the ground.
Blake and Ren both used Gambol Shroud to tie down the beast. Ren swung around with the other end of the ribbon and made the beast fell. The moment the beast was about to attack Blake. Ren rushed to her side and touched her arm making her anonymous. As they backed away, the ribbon snapped.
But at the time Weiss and Pyrrha has already prepped their counter. Weiss placed a capsule from her Myrtenaster, it was just Cobalt Rounds. She used her Glyphs and scatter shot the Berserker. As the bullets concaved into the bark. Pyrrha used her Semblance and brought the beast into the ground.
Jaune's breathing was heavy. He felt a thrill, the thrill that made a chill go up his spine. His sadistic grin was showing, Yang noticed, she was afraid. The eyes he showed was the eyes of a cold killer. She just rushed forward and punched the Berserker as the bark tore down.
Now the soft part was revealed, it was leaking Negative energy.
*BA-DUMP! *
Jaune blasted past Yang and tore the beast as he dug his sword into the soft bark. His grin was widening. The Energy was slowly flowing into his Armlet; with every stab, he began to chant the words like a mantra. "Kill… Delete… Blood…"
His eyes were growing more like the Grimm by second. As watched the Aura begin to slow down from the beast. It began to rot, Jaune then bit into the rotting bark like a wild animal. Everyone was shocked, even his girlfriend.
Jaune stood back up as he calmed down, he pulled his hood down and walked forward. "Come on… we need to get this tower away from Vale." He walked on forward as he gripped his armlet and collapsed. Pyrrha rushed over to him and lend support.
His team surrounded him as they spoke. "Pyrrha? Do you know anything about that?" Ren asked as he gazed at Jaune. The others felt slightly guilty, they knew about Jaune and his Armlet. Kai was being held up by Yang and Ray by Ruby.
"Nikos… carry him, we have to keep moving." Fisher said as he removed his Mechanical leg but before that. He was stopped by Kai. His eyes were mad; Kai wasn't happy about bringing the newbies here but he was even more angry at something else.
He used all his strength he had left and punched Fisher off his wheelchair. "Assan… I want you to head back to Vale, back to Beacon and spend time with your wife…"
Fisher's expression darkened, he knew that what he was doing was wrong as a lover but to protect the innocent that always has been his calling. He just got back on his wheelchair and went forward. "My wife would understand…"
"UNDERSTAND WHAT?! THAT YOU'RE NOT MUCH BETTER THEN YOUR OWN FATHER WHO LEFT YOU TO DIE COLD AND ALONE?!" Kai spat back as Fisher placed back his mechanical leg and walked towards Kai and punched him in the face but Yang blocked the punch. She twisted Assan's hand.
"Go back, Teach… go and spend time with her and your kid…" Yang muttered out, Fisher took a moment to register the amount of emotion she tried to keep under that hardened Persona. 12 years ago, he met Raven. He understood why Yang was angry. She grew up without a complete family.
Maybe she didn't want his own child to end up like her. Fisher smiled in his heart as he dropped the food bag he was carrying. The expression on his face changed to one of a smile. "Fine… just try not to get lost, without me… you may get lost…"
"I think… I'll be able to help…" A voice sounded out to them as the man came closer, his clothes resemblance Connor's but it was the opposite colour of Black and Red. His collar was pulled up as he approached them.
Fisher gripped his Seraph's Branding but then loosened his grip. "His eyes… they're not the same…" The look of his eyes was not the one that killed John. It was the eyes of the Templar that aided them in the escape for the White Fang. The Templar who they had bought to this world VIA the Chrono Necklace.
Everyone was tensed when they saw Shay Patrick Cormac but the Veterans knew this wasn't a trick. Shay stopped for a moment as he felt the Malice aimed at him, Ray spoke out with a level of seriousness in his voice. "So after 4 years… you broke out?"
"He has used the Artefacts to create the Prefect Body… there's no need for me…" His thick accent fills the air as he gave everyone a soft glare. The girls needed answers and needed it now. Fisher sighed as he placed his pole at his neck at lighting speed.
"Assan… I believe you want the other half of Winter Guardian's power." Shay said with a soft yet regretful tone. He always knew what he did, he was possessed but he allowed it too. All he wanted was a way home. Back to his children but all that spirit did was provide falsehood.
"It's with the Assassin, Connor Kenway." Fisher stated as he lowered his staff. Fisher really wanted to just slit Shay's throat right there but now. He was just Shay not Shay with the Demon. "He is not The War God anymore… let it go."
He lowered his staff as Shay let out a breath. He looks over to the rest as he fixed his collar. Fisher began to walk back to the stairs down. The girls finally spoke out. Well, Yang did. She stared the Templar down as she turned to Ray.
Shay knew what she was talking about, he simply just started walking forward. His boots pushed into the dirt as he slowly walked forward. Weiss took out her scroll as she read out something that she had taken a photo of Connor's/Haytham's Journal.
"Shay Patrick Cormac, Grandmaster of The Templars Of the Studies in Archology." Weiss said with a slightly soft tone. Shay stopped in his tracks and stares her down. He slowly approached her as he was blocked off by Ruby but he gently pushed her aside.
"There are only a few that call me that…" His thick Irish accent spoke out as he stared down Ice Queen. Weiss smirked as she looked up to the slightly taller man. Shay's expression hardened. This girl had something that he needed to know.
"Haytham Kenway. Templar and the person who gave me this…" She lifted her arm as she made the Chains of Fate wrap around her forearm. Shay let out a sigh as he felt a level of comfort hearing the name of his old superior.
"Shay Patrick Cormac… anyone who is a friend of Master Haytham is mine." He gave a firm nod but Weiss smiled darkly as she spoke once again with a mischievous look on her face. She strutted in front of him and said. "Soon to be Daughter-in-law of the Kenways."
The rest of the girls forgot their malice for Shay and just went ape ham on Weiss.
"What do you mean In-law?!" Said the cat.
"Since when did you even have sex with him?" Shouted the Blonde.
"When is the wedding?!" The leader said as she cheered earning a giggle from everyone, Shay smiled at them softly as Ray quickly gestured him to get a move on. Fisher picked up his belongings, he walked over to his two students. Blake and Weiss giving them both a hug. Weiss was a little surprised and so was Blake. Fisher was not social open about physical contact but at this moment he knew that something was going to happen.
"Be careful…" He placed his hat on his head and walked to the stairs leading to the lower floors. They all waved goodbye as Shay begun to move. Everyone was sceptical at first but Shay led them to the stairway the fastest way.
(7th Floor-Snow Area-Nightfall)
As nightfall came, Shay stopped as he turned to the group. The air was cold, the wind blowing against his coat. It reminded him of the time in The Atlantic, he would walk the snow for days finding treasures and things of a similar use.
He clearly knew that no one behind him, trusted him. He sighed as he told them. "We shall be stopping here tonight…" He sat down for a moment, sighing. The Veterans took this opportunity, to leave him with the girls. They pulled up their jackets and wandered off into the woods to look for some firewood.
There was an air of dead silence. It was understandable.
As more time passed, there was an eerie feeling in the air. They were being watched, he could tell. "You lasses! Be ready!" Shay spoke out as he drew his swords. The feel of awareness swept through his body as he activated his Eagle Vision.
Shay's senses are different from Connor's. Connor's can track his targets. Shay feels and hears their presence. Ruby and Yang were stuck by an unknown force. Shay didn't even notice the slashes as he scanned them.
They were aiming for vitals. The shiver was sent up Shay's back as Yang's blood trickled down her shoulder near the neck. Ruby's was closer to her wrist. It was bleeding as well. Shay's Eagle Vision was for silent killers and assassins. He was not equipped for this situation with his basic tools.
"Hey! Tempy! Can't you do that thing that you change the shift of gravity thing!? It's your Semblance, right?!" Yang spat to him. Shay turned to her as he still tried to find the source of the damage with his Eagle Vision. Shay has not even tested his Semblance by himself before.
His Semblance was unlocked by Belatucadros. He winced in pain. There was a cut on his forearm. Weiss and Yang were at a disadvantage. They were slow fighters. Yang needed to increase her speed to even try to find the source of the slash. Weiss needed to find her centre to begin combat even after training with Fisher and Beacon. She still needed at least 3.5 seconds to find her centre.
Blake and Ruby could create an area of slash range to keep them from being harmed. Shay watched them. He saw their movements with his Eagle Vision, they were slowing down. If they keep this up, they will lose out over time.
Jaune and his team were very adaptive. They made a shield roof with the two shields and Nora's hammer. It managed to deflect the damage but they seem to be being pushed down. The longer they stay in that position. The shielders will fall.
He balled his fist as he channelled his Aura to his centre of Gravity. His arms crossed over each other. He took a deep breath in. As he felt the Aura within him about to burst out of his chest. "AGGGHHH! HEAVEN'S TIME!"
*DOONNNNNNN*
The world slowed down. Sudden Narration for Shay's ability pops in to break the fourth wall.
Heaven's Time is a special ability of Shay's which creates a temporal field that distorts time for everything and everyone in it. Initiated using his Aura, it is represented as a red and black Aura field radiating from Shay, affecting everyone within the set area. People affected by Heaven's Time still have awareness of the situation because the only part of the human body that is resistant to the distortions is the brain. People can experience the odd sensation of passing out slowly. While the phenomenon is usually averse to humans, it sometimes has a positive effect, as the distortion is slow enough to prevent a man from falling to his death from a great height.
Back to the plot.
Shay sighed out a breath as the mist froze in space. Shay drew out his blades as he scanned the area for the source. He activated his Eagle Vision once more. He now saw red streaks that were flying slowly in the slowed area. He picked one out as he observed it. The creature, it was just as small as a ladybug.
They had claws. It took up at least 75% of the body. He slashed one of them with his hidden blade. It just turned to dust. It even ignored the rules of Heaven's Time. They can't stop here tonight. He shouted to everyone. "When I stop my Semblance, run! I will find Kai and Ray… The exit is 10 miles to the west…"
Time was up. Shay fell to his knees as he gasped for air, performing the Semblance without the War God was taxing on his body and mental strain. He couldn't find even move, for such a powerful ability to slow down time for 5 minutes. The drawbacks were extremely severe.
Everyone ran leaving Shay behind but Shay noticed that after they ran, the creatures were no longer attack him. He stood corrected, he was slashed but this time. He wasn't swarmed by them. Ray and Kai came back. They were also injured, Shay noted something. Ray had twice the number of cuts. In comparison to Kai.
Kai spoke in a rushed speak. "Shay! Quickly! We must warn the rest. They attack the person with the highest body heat!" Ray nodded as he picked Shay up in a piggyback carry and ran. "Where's the stairs?" Ray looked back to see Shay passed out.
Shay passed out due to extreme exhaustion. Ray clicked his tongue. He couldn't utilize the Dead Zone because it produced high levels of heat. Kai couldn't use his Semblance here. Explosions have heat.
"We have to split up… remember. Our Semblance mean death here." Ray muttered as he gave Kai a firm stare. Kai nodded as he ran the other way.
(With the gang)
They ran off to the west. They were still running. Unknowingly to them, they are slowly increasing their body heat. Pyrrha and Jaune were the first line of defence for them. They used the Shields as blockage. They were not much of use; they couldn't predict the insects. They had to use most of their movements to cover the group.
Blake and Ruby were leading the group as they knew how to maneuverer through the frozen forest. Yang was keeping an eye out for Kai or Ray but none of them were in sight. Weiss was using her Glyphs to speed everyone. Ren was trying to make everyone anonymous by pressing his palms on the ground. Nora was carrying Ren by his waist so that his hands can stay in contact with. the ground. It only helps for five seconds and he must repeat.
(20 minutes of running later…)
Everyone was running out of gas. Ren's Semblance was no longer working; he was now just trying to just hold his weight and run. The insects have become more ruthless; their bodies were now scratched and slashed.
Jaune was gasping for air as he began to slow down, he couldn't keep this up for much longer. Pyrrha was pulling him along trying to make him go faster. The cold climate was not making it any better.
Team RWBY, all of them begin to lag behind except for Ruby. Who was trying to keep her team motivated but she was also begin to slow down due to her wounds. She kept feeling her body slowly dropping.
Everyone was about to drop any moment now. The first to drop was the Knight, Jaune tumbled and fell. He was panting in a foot of snow as Pyrrha tried to pick him up, his body was heavy. Everyone stopped as they circled Jaune and prepared themselves to defend him.
They were no match for the sheer speed of the insects even Ruby can travel at that speed but with their size. It was almost impossible to hit.
Kashuni came out of nowhere and used Howling Echoes. He dropped Shay on to the ground. He saw Weiss's Glyph Shot. So, he came running. He turned to them, "Yo! Listen closely, Ruby-chan! Everyone just keep running! They only attack things that emit heat… as long as you are warm they'll cut you! Don't worry. I'll keep them distract! Just go!"
He spoke with such confidence but Ruby saw a fake glint in his eyes. He was going to bring all the Cutters in the forest to him. Yang lifted Shay as she threw him over her shoulder. "You better come back! Ruby still needs her lessons!" She ran ahead with the rest.
Ray turned behind as Ruby sent him a gaze of sorrow expression. He gave her a smile as her sliver eyes teared a little. Ray's hair was glowing red as he was ready to open Lock 4. "Hehe! LOCK 4 OPEN!" The snow in a 4-mile radius melted instantly.
Kai felt the presence of heat as he knew what Ray was going to do. He was going to burn himself out, to let the kids continue. He rushed off to the stairway to meet with the gang.
(With Ray)
He saw the Cutters come in swarms, he felt the slashing intensify. He opened his eyes as he increased the heat even furthermore. His body felt the Cutters digging into his flesh but he stood strong. As he drew out both of his swords and begun slashing at a great speed.
(Floor 20)
The War God was having a duel with the Mistress of Tiga. She was fighting a losing battle; her blood was dripping down her nearly severed hand. She sighed out as she was on her last legs, she was contemplating if she could survive another attack from him.
"Kirlia Tiga…" The War God said in a rage. He made his way to her as Kirlia used [Kamilla] to punch him. The fist was quick as the arm was caught in an instant it was fired. Belatucadros broke the Spirit's hand. Kirlia felt her own wrist snap.
"Argh…" She bit her lip as [Kamilla] managed to punch the War God in the face as it sent him staggering. She swiped her hand at Belatucadros, it made the Armlet of Eden come off into her hand. At that moment, there was a revelation. Belatucadros's arm vanished and was only left with a Spirit Outlining of his arm.
"So… Spirit Attacks work and as long as he does not have a piece of Eden on that part of the body… he is forced to go into a Spirit Form…" Her thoughts ran wild as she wanted to swipe another piece off him. She swiped but he was no longer there.
"You… impudent Risoian Whore!" Belatucadros smashed his usable arm to the side of her face with sheer speed. The only thing she done on reflects was lift her arm with a broken wrist to block the punch.
The snap was audible as her whole arm shattered.The breaking of her bones was evident, just by the sheer sound and how her arm went limp. She muffled a scream as she flew into a pillar by the powerful punch. As the support of the tower began to shake. Belatucadros smiled as he slowly treaded to her.
She was barely able to move. She couldn't, her left arm was broken and her skull was fractured. She could only grovel but [Kamilla]. Called out to her, the voice ringing strongly in her mind.
"We have converted to the darkness… to come to this country for a saviour and killed our lover to get so far… it is time." Kirlia widened her eyes as she watched the War God approach her, her next move. Will be a forbidden Tiga move among the bloodline. The conversion back into the light, will only cause death to those in the darkness.
"[Kamilla Tornado]!" She was able to spring back up and punch the War God in the face. The War God was shocked as he gazed upon her Spirit. It had changed the once Silver and Gold were now Sliver and Red.
She threw a punch with her able arm as Belatucadros blocked it but this time. The amount of force that was in the punch increased. He caught her hand and was about to break it. Kirlia shot out a beam of light that made Belatucadros back away.
She smiled as she prepared her last stand. However, The War God was smiling himself as he slipped back the Armlet of Eden. She was hesitant now that he had both armswhile she had one.She stood no chance. She knew what was her goal… entrust.
"[Kamilla Glitter]..." She changed her Spirit once more. Now it was glowing with a Godly Golden Aura. She sighed as she charged at Belatucadros knowing there was no chance. She allowed herself to be punched across the room.
She smacked against Connor's Crystal as she smiled. Belatucadros was disturbed when he saw her expression. He looked at her Spirit again and it was flickering from Golden and Darkness. She placed her hands on The Kenway.
"My memories… take them. Assassin… I was brought here by Cinder but before that I was an Agent for Miss Winter Schnee and Sir Ironwood. Tell them! Riso has fallen! Bring back their Freedom from the Templars!" Her eyes shed tears, wanting freedom for her people. As she slowly transferred the Energy into Connor. Her eyes they slowly became hollow as she vanished into dust due to the Paragon.
(On the 7th floor)
A man with jet black hair laid in a blanket of red snow. His flesh was cut open as he turned around to face the light of the Paragon's Moon. The night wind was blowing as his body was growing colder. He smiled as he took out a photo of his child and wife in his breast pocket. As it fell on him as he lost the feeling of his whole body.
He didn't shed a single tear. He took out his scroll and press record. "To my wife and son, I… sorry… to Ruby Ro…se. You were good student… one day… become… greates…" He didn't even finish his sentence. As he dropped the scroll.
(Chapter 36-Along the Line of Death. Shadows Await.)
[A/N: Hello! Fisher here, I killed off two OCs this chapter as I intended to. I am sorry for the late updates. Life has struck me harder with my grades slowly slipping and parental pressure has gotten to me. I tried to balance being a writer and a student but it has been hard. I am not trying to make anyone feel sorry for me.
I just want to say I am sorry for being a huge disappointment as a form of entertainment for the people who view this with my lack of heart writing but I assure you I only write when I have the heart. I will try to update once a month. Best Wishes Fisher. I am sorry for the short chapter.]
