Chapter 44: Battle with an unknown and obtain the fungus

Tamakaro was frightened inside. This is not like the re-deads she fought inside the Stone Tower or anything she fought. The Goddess of Chaos test was not as bad as this thing in front of her. The creature was attacking and Tamakaro dodges. After she dodges, Tamakaro attack and nothing happened. It was like this for hours. Tamakaro started her light energy and shot it at the creature and it hit the ground stunned. Tamakaro start hitting the creature. This keeps on going until something happened with the creature.

"Now what," said Tamakaro as she pays attention to what is going on. The creature transforms again and this time it was harder than before. Tamakaro was trying to figure out how to handle this creature and again she manage to stunned it before she attacks. This was like this for hours and the battle was getting more fierce.

"If this is some sort of test, you are playing with me. I do not like people or things that playing with me," said Tamakaro as the creature transform but what was weird about this creature is that it look like her, blindfold and all. Tamakaro does not know what to do because the creature smell like her as well. This creature has the ability to transform into anything it pleases and kill its target that way. Tamakaro only stood there.

"What's the matter? You can't kill me. Oh well, I will just have this finish in no time," said a voice that comes out of the other Tamakaro sounded like her. The creature came rushing on the offense and attack Tamakaro. Tamakaro blocks it and parry the attack and attack back. The creature knows she was doing that and parry her attack. Tamakaro finds out this creature that look like her and have everything like her because Tamakaro can feel its aura as her own.

"I get it. You try to be like me in fighting style but I find out what you are weak against," said Tamakaro. The other Tamakaro is laughing and responded.

"You are a fool. You do not even know what I am capable of," said the other Tamakaro as she started to compose her light magic and shoot at Tamakaro. Tamakaro was shocked and now knows that this creature has not only copy her fighting style but her magic capability as well. Tamakaro was in a stuck situation.

"Ok that won't work," said Tamakaro as she got around and attack with dark magic. The creature dodge and laughs at her even more.

"You fool, I can copy both of your abilities," said other Tamakaro as she shot a dark energy at Tamakaro. Tamakaro started to shake and panic at the same time. She had never fought herself anywhere before. Even the Goddess of Chaos did not do this to her. It was something new and it was getting to her.

"Hahahahaha!!!!!! You finally found your match and now you will die here," said the other Tamakaro. As she was about to attack, a bright light was filled the room the other Tamakaro felt this huge light and started to get hurt. It was not only that the other Tamakaro transform into what the creature true self is. Tamakaro still was in a trance and could not snap out of. The creature has no odor or has anything resemble of anyone or anything. It has lost. Tamakaro finally got back to her senses and found a odor that she was looking for. The fungus that she has been looking.

"Very well done," said the creature. Tamakaro turned to it and was getting ready to fight.

"There is no need to fight. I had admit defeat. Excuse my rudeness. We shape shifters have been hiding for eons and I was told that this place was the safest place to be. However, I find it here that this tree is about to die or is dead. More creatures will come and will take this away from me," said the shape shifter.

"I understand. I would not like people come to my house uninvited. I was only here to get a fungus to replenish my eyes along with a powder and a purified water," said Tamakaro.

"Well the water I do not know where but you are welcome to take the fungus. It was started to hurt this tree even more than the creatures. Oh and let me show you the way out," said the Shape shifter.

"Thank you kindly," said Tamakaro as the light came and surround her. As soon she was in the ground felt different. She does not smell the trees anymore. In fact she smell water, lots of water.
