Summary: Fai's a vampire and Kurogane's a werewolf living together in the city when someone starts following them and starts a chain reaction of events.
The dragon and the two phoenixes were now mildly injured (excluding Yuui's body who already had its share of wounds) as the demon master wasn't fairing much better but still had a magic orb; waiting to blast them. Syaoron though, was at his limit as he was panting deeply. He was still holding his guns but his wound was wearing him down.
It seemed like there was an endless number to the demons as Ioryogi burned another. They were all wearing down, but just one of them needed to get close enough to land a killing blow.
The dragon panted. My moves have gotten rusty. I can't remember the last time I have gotten this exhausted. It glanced at the blonde twins. What about you two or...'you'? It knew that the phoenix was split in two but he didn't know which have their eternal love and which didn't.
"It's because we're in human form." Not-Fai smiled pleasantly. "They can only do so much."
Yeah, it's annoying though. It glanced down at Kurogane's body. This young one has gotten soft at heart. It's...weird. The not-Kurogane stated with a face.
"That's love." Smiling he turned his attention back to Fei Wang who was breathing heavily as he staggered around. Syaoron had run out of bullets as well it seemed.
The not-Yuui spat out some blood that had nothing to do with it and more with the body it was in. You dare manipulate this poor young being and call him pathetic? It walked past his other half and its lover with its eyes glowing blue. You're the pathetic one here, taking stuff that isn't yours. You tried to kill me, the dragon and almost violated our dear friend; goddess of purity. Just so you can have everything in the palm of your hand? Nothing is without sacrifice, you demented being. Even the devil wouldn't deal with mindless children.
Fei chuckled with a twisted grin. "I don't care what it takes. All my life I have looked down upon by the very people I thought I can trust. Nothing is worth not going through with this. I will obtain that power and when I do, I'll destroy everyone who gets in my way. I'll be the almighty one."
The not-Yuui glared at the man. Seems that it's either him or them. But it winced as it heard a crack. It looked up.
Above they saw the barrier dissipate. Fe Wang looked up in horror. "That Witch." He hissed. "No matter...I have you three here now. It's only a matter of time now." He smiled and sent forth more magic.
However, since the barrier dissipated, the not-Yuui smiled gleefully. Before the blasts of magic can even touch it, there was a crackling blue shield between it and the magic. The blasts hit the shield but got absorbed quickly. Oh my, I think things are working in our favor now.
"She should be joining us soon." His other half smiled as he used a burst of energy to dash forward towards Reed.
"Come on now." The not-Sakura practically dragged Syaoran; hearing the blasts and feeling the intense level of magic in the air. "That man is weakened but they still need our help."
"Right." He drew his sword from his hand as they ran. He would help no matter what to protect his home, his family, and his friends.
When they got close, the not-Sakura almost smiled. The dragon and the phoenix duo were winning but demons, though fewer were still coming. Its eyes went to the twin of the body's protector and sighed. "Come," It dragged Syaoran to Syaoron. "We made it just in time for your brother..."
Running in front of her, as it was still Sakura, Syaoran cut away at the few demons that noticed them.
Smiling at the human, the not-Sakura went up to the wounded gunman. It placed a hand on his shoulder. "You've done well, young man."
"Sakura? No…. you're not." Syaoron's chest hurt, his lungs burning from exertion. "What's going on?"
"Don't over work yourself now." The not-Sakura looked over at the human's injuries. "Long story short, the blonde twins, the werewolf and this young girl had the souls of three major beings for a long time inside of their bodies. We were just sleeping until now."
"You have to hurry then, we're not in the best shape, but then neither is he." He pointed to Fei Wang who dodged Fai again along with a bout of blue flame. It could go either way.
"I would but I can't do too much or else this body will have some...injuries." The not-Sakura sighed. "Even with the girl's power inside, there was a possibility that she might still be hurt." Its eyes trailed to Syaoron's guns. "Although..."
"Just do it, we need to stop him and don't have a lot of time!" His brother looked over his shoulder at him in surprise, sword held up just in case.
"My, you are quite impatient." The not-Sakura smiled; not really offended. "I wonder how the phoenix in that pony-tail one didn't come out sooner and beat you over the head." Giggling, it lifted Syaoron's hands that held the guns. "But if I must." Hovering over the guns with the hands, it took a deep breath. "Watch out, this may make you a bit ill..."
Syaoron stared dumbfounded, but held on tight to his weapons. His brother watched as well unsure.
With those white eyes darkening a bit, the hands started to glow brightly as sparks of magic started being absorbed into those guns. It opened its mouth and started chanting in a long dead language.
It felt strange, the weapons in his hands glowing as magic whirled around them, glowing brightly. "You!" Reed turned to them outraged and sent out his demons towards them.
The dragon glanced over and saw the goddess doing some magic. Grinning, it charged towards the demons and easily tore them apart. Being next to the human swordsman, it turned its head to the goddess. About time you make it. I thought you chickened out. It smirked.
The goddess sighed as the magic continued to do its work. "I'm a god, not some Imp. Ugh, even after being dormant all those years, you're still as insufferable as ever."
Lowly chuckling, the dragon shrugged. What can I say? I'm just that good.
Sighing with a small smile, the guns below its hands started shining brightly. "Men..." It joked lightly.
Gathering up his strength, Fei Wang began forming a spell in his hand, it swirled around in his palm crackling with dark energy. He smiled manically as he flew forward. "I'll destroy you!"
The guns were turned pure white. The not-Sakura seriously glanced at Syaoron. "One shot. From both of them. That's what you got. There's enough magic to destroy the whole city and then some. Aim and aim well, human lover of the phoenix half-ling."
The dragon and Syaoran moved a bit away as quickly as they could but holding their stances; giving some space for Syaoron.
Taking a deep breath Syaoron put one foot in front of the other as he slowly broke out into a run towards Fei Wang. He wouldn't let him escape, not this time when they were so close to ending all of this once and for all. He didn't understand half of what had gone on, but he knew one thing. he had one chance to make things right,
The not-Yuui watched Syaoron moving towards the demon master as it slashed another demon. You can do it, hum-Syaoron! Prove to Yuui that you can do it! It then dodged another demon before beheading it.
Don't give up, human! The dragon yelled as it fought more demons dumb enough to come at them. Remember who you're fighting for!
The goddess sighed with some tiredness. "That's one insane but amazing human."
Ioryogi and Fai took out two demons bent on taking out the boy as Fei Wang grew closer. With a flash he brought up his guns and shot at the wizard. He hoped they hit their target.
As he pulled the triggers, two huge beams of light came out. Thick and bright; they quickly went to the dark master; so quickly that the demons that were unlucky to be in the line of the shot were completely obliterated in less then a second.
"I won't let you succeed!" He shot out his magic towards Syaoron, he would stop him and the others and gain what was rightfully his, but before he realized he was stopped, a bullet embedding in his chest and gut. He staggered backwards, eyes wide. Bringing his hand to his chest he touched the spot where he'd been shot only to pull his hand back to see it covered in dark blood. "No...this can't happen. I was close, so close..."
It's happening. The not-Yuui stated as it got closer to the man. You may not be human, you still have a human body...and that was dead to begin with. It made its way around until it was on the right side of the man. But we're not going to let you get away with this the third time not-Yuui glanced at the other immortal beings and nodded.
The dragon got the message and moved until he was in the right side of the man. The other phoenix was then behind the man and the white goddess was in the front.
Fei Wang, the crimes against you have been immeasurable and the punishment must fit the crime. The not-Yuui's body started to glow. And since plain old death would be too easy for a creature like you, we're going to destroy your body and send your body to the deepest bowels of the underworld where you will slowly taken apart but the very devil who gave you your so-called eternal life.
"You...all of you...I wanted to help...but what can a mere man do alone." He smiled wickedly. "No matter." He collapsed; the light fading from his eyes as his body began to dissipate just like the demons he controlled.
Everyone, quickly! The not-Yuui shouted. Before his soul escapes! The glow on the body went brighter.
They worked together as something black and coiling rose up and were immediately caught in an orb of magic.
With two glowing figures of blue, one of red and one of white, the orb completely encased the blackened soul before it shrank and shrank into the orb itself was destroyed from the inside out. It vanished. The glows faded as the not-Yuui sighed. Dragon, if you will...
dragon went to the now soulless, crumpled body. Opening its mouth, it blew a huge wave of fire. The flames quickly engulfed what was left of the body. The body burned easily; soon reduced into ashes. The dragon sighed. What a dumb being. It sneered.
"Foolish maybe, but he had started with good intentions it seemed." The other part of phoenix said. "Now I think it's time we left, it's been awhile since we were last awake and we can't inhabit these bodies any longer as it is."
The not-Yuui nodded. Yes, and this one's already hurt. However, I want to see someone first. It then looked over and saw Syaoron panting with his guns next to him. It walked over to him and keeled in front of him; watching.
"What is it?" He could barely stand as the spirit or whatever in Yuui kneeled in front of him.
First off, I wanted to say thank you. Its eyes softened. Not many humans would go to such great lengths to do what you and the few others have done. And also, It lifted Syaoron's chin. I want to give you a small gift in response to your remarkable feats.
His vision was getting blurry as he watched Yuui draw closer. He had no clue what would happen, but right now he just wanted to sleep.
It leaned forward and soon captured Syaoron's lips with its own. Soon there was faint blue glow on both their bodies. Syaoron's body then was slowly marked by blue swirls of the phoenix. The marks were healing the boy's body.
It was weird and a little painful feeling his body mending itself so quickly, but he was glad for it.
A full minute went by before the boy's injuries were almost fully healed. The marks slowly seeped out of him and onto Yuui's body. Pulling back, the body was full of those blue swirls. I'm the one who has no heart for I was split in two. But thanks to you, both Yuui and I have finally know what it is to have one and to know what it is like to be loved. The swirls soon healed Yuui's body. I wish I could stay longer but...my time...our time is up. Our work here is done... It then hugged Syaoron. Goodbye Syaoron Li. I'll tell your father how much you and your brother have grown. He'd love to hear that...
He didn't know what to think at that, his chest tightened none the less at the thought of his father. "Thank you." Already Fai was on his knees a blue flame hovering in front of him. He was exhausted and most of his injuries had been mended. "Thank all of you for helping..."
...I'm not the one you love but I wanted to say it. The phoenix-half started to seep out of the body as did the dragon and the goddess. I love you Syaoron. I love you with all my being./ It chuckled. /But please, continue to love and protect Yuui. That's all I wish for... Not-Yuui barely managed to brace itself before the body collapsed.
The others stared up as the flame flickered and moved to join its counterpart.
