Just to keep myself, and others, from forgetting, the remainder of the group is DarkMagicianmon and Anti-TLSoulDude.
Last time, Hikari's fight with Shadra continued. Shadra forced Hikari's body to try and injure itself…until Hikari cut herself with a cutting spell. Shadra then revealed that she could turn invisible…leaving NO sign of herself. The only way Hikari could destroy Shadra was to go Balance and use light energy to wipe Shadra off the face of the planet. The other Authors then caught up with her and began the ceremony that could bring TL back. What happens next? Read to find out!
I mainly chose the song to play because it has cool, fight-scene background music. It's also the theme song for D-Dude's Triple Author Team—Team Godsend.
Chapter 48: DM and Anti-TL vs. Drake pt. 1—Anti-TL's Wrath
The two remaining heroes arrived in the main room. Anti-TL's scarlet eyes shot from one end of the room to the other.
"Over there." DM said, jabbing his thumb at where two shadows stood.
AFAFAFAFAFAFAFAFAFAFAFAF
The two shadows were of Drake Darkstar and…a Darkness with wild, black hair and yellow eyes that gave him the look of a mad raven.
"I thought that DarthBen stabbed you." Drake stated to the Darkness, "How can I be here, talking to you?"
"Because you still fear me." Wraith replied, his usual maniacal grin appearing on his face, "As long as someone I met fears me, I will come back…again and again…"
"Well, DM and that traitor have arrived." Drake stated, "At least we can…"
"WE?" Wraith snorted, "Who's 'we'? I heard you insult my race and used my fellow Darknesses as cannon fodder. Sorry, but you deal with them yourself."
"DRAKE!" DM shouted, bolting over with Anti-TL, "Hey, you're Wraith, aren't you?"
"Good-bye." Wraith said, vanishing in black flames.
"Oh, you two made it. I'm so thrilled." Drake stated, sadistically.
"Feeling's not so mutual, Master Darkstar." Anti-TL replied, exaggerating the term "Master".
"I'm so sorry you turned on us, Anti-TL." Drake shrugged, "You were a good soldier."
"I know." Anti-TL growled, "THAT'S why you wanted to kill me, wasn't it?"
"Precisely." Drake replied. He made a steeple with his fingers before saying, "Unfortunately, I'll have to kill you NOW."
Anti-TL clenched his metal arm and thrust in behind him as his right arm flew forward, in the tiger-pose. All he had to say was, "So be it."
"Anti-TL! Let me fight him!" DM barked, pulling out his staff.
"Sorry, Author, this is MY fight." Anti-TL replied. He then sighed and said, "But if I go down…he's all yours." Anti-TL's eyes then flew to Drake as he snarled, "NOW, it's time you felt Anti-TL's wrath…and to find why my heart burns for your death!"
(A/N: I do not own the song. Rammstein does. It was translated into English by someone I do not know.)
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the
voice from the pillow
Drake and Anti-TL both cracked their knuckles. Drake readied dark energy and Anti-TL's metal arm shifted into a metal version of Hellboy's Right Hand of Doom.
I have brought you something
I ripped it from
my chest
With this heart I have the power
to blackmail
the eyelids
I sing until the day awakes
a bright light on the
heavens
my heart burns
Drake flew in as Anti-TL swung his metal arm at him. The metal arm was dodged as Drake pressed the dark energy into Anti-TL's body. Black electricity flew through Anti-TL's body. The Anti-Author screamed in pain as he was tossed aside like a rag doll. Because Anti-TL wanted this, DM couldn't intervene. All he could do was watch as the Anti-Author who turned on Drake got beaten into a pulp by the King of Darksides.
They come to you in the night
demons, ghosts,
black fairies
Anti-TL kicked himself back up as he fired a concussion blast at Drake. The Darkside King dodged around the crimson streak and Anti-TL barely ducked around an oncoming fist. He shifted his hand into a scimitar and sliced at Drake, wildly. The Darkside managed to dodge around every single blow and deliver a fast jab to Anti-TL's chest and clapped his temples with enough speed to make Agent Smith from the Matrix proud.
They creep out of the cellar shaft
and will
look under your bedding
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am
the voice from the pillow
I have brought you something
a bright
light on the heavens
my heart burns
Anti-TL recoiled and swung a foot across Drake's face with surprising speed. It sent Drake, careening to the floor.
"NOW, I'm pissed." Drake growled.
Anti-TL's hand shifted into a clawed hand and shot the finger-tips at Drake. Two made contact in the Darkside's shoulder, but the other three were knocked aside by dark energy. Drake then began making hand-signs.
They come to you in the night
and steal your
small hot tears
they wait until the moon awakes
and put them in
my cold veins
"Darkness-style! Black Inferno Jutsu!" Drake shouted. Black fire then erupted around him and hit Anti-TL, full in the chest. The Anti-Author flew back and crashed into the wall with enough force to crush something underneath. Black goo flowed out as if a Darkness had been crushed underneath.
Anti-TL groaned as he picked himself up. He coughed up crimson blood and shifted his left hand into a machine gun. He pointed it at Drake, shakily. He opened-fire on Drake.
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the
voice from the pillow
I sing until the day awakes
a bright
light on the heavens
my heart burns
All of the bullets missed and Drake grabbed Anti-TL by the neck and caused dark energy to explode out, sending Anti-TL to the ground as a miserable heap of bloody fur. His breathing was shaky and he was already 90% dead.
"NOW, you shall die." Drake hissed. A blast of magic hit Drake in the back.
"No…you…don't." DM growled as he readied his staff.
"Well, DM, just like old times." Drake smiled, readying himself, "Bring it on."
"Hey, DED!" someone shouted, "I've learned a few tricks!"
A streak of white came out and something delivered a series of kicks to Drake before zipping over to DM.
The half could hardly believe his eyes. He saw (or read) this person die.
"TL?" DM asked.
"What's the matter? Afraid of ghosts?" TL asked, his usual cocky grin spreading across his face. He then said, comically, "Boo."
"Sylar showed me the comic with YOU dying!" DM said, "HOW can you be here?!"
"Well, it went kinda like this." TL replied, voice going solemn. He turned to Drake and said, "Okay, Drake, could you give us a chapter to explain things?"
"I don't see why not." Drake replied with a shrug.
Dimensiondude: Alright, we have everything we need…except one.
Airnaruto: I thought we did!
Dimensiondude: We do to get him READY to come back, but we still need one thing.
X Prodigy: Which is…?
Dimensiondude: We need to give him a REASON to live.
TLSoulDude's Shadow: You win, TL. NOW, you have a choice.
TLSoulDude: Hey, I thought that if I won, I move on.
TLSoulDude's Shadow: (voice changing) You CAN, but it's up to you.
TLSoulDude: You're not my shadow, are you?
TLSoulDude's Shadow: No. I'm your…
