Chapter Fifty-Two: A Spiral's Night Ends
Lok's POV
Jericho was being invoked and I knew that was Harrison's Titan because of how the Titan spoke asking Harrison what he's to do. I heard Den invoked Dullahan and there was definitely no mistake there in whose Titan he is.
I almost chuckled when I heard Harrison say Betrayer was one to talk when he called Den and Harrison Traitors. "I'll protect you" Jericho said and I knew from his howl that he stopped Betrayer from hitting Den with a Spell returning him to his Amulet.
I heard Dullahan saying that he'll try to stall so I'm guessing Harrison couldn't hold on and Den tried to leave to help him but Demigorgon was behind him. Dullahan most likely tried to hold off Demigorgon but wasn't able to for long when I saw him being returned to his Amulet from the sky.
Den said 'it's about time I got some backup' making me smile sadly at him when I nodded mouthing 'sorry' before he shook his head going to Harrison. We were all in a line after a while: Raijin to my left, Den to my right, Sophie to his right, and Sabriel to her right.
She told the Betrayer that it's his fault her family was hunted before I spoke "if you weren't around and no one rivaled what you're doing then Dante wouldn't have tried to sacrifice himself" I said. We ran forward when Den said that the Betrayer was going down, I felt bad for him because his brother was frozen because of Shadowlock.
After I heard Power-Bonded Gareon being invoked I casted Boltflare at the same time Den did hitting Demigorgon's claws since he held them in front of his face. I saw Raijin hit the right side of the Titan's face with small amounts of Plasma making him turn towards him.
Betrayer told Demigorgon to destroy us but before he could attack us I saw Truthshield, Sabriel's move, showing itself in front of Den and I who were in front of Sophie and Sabriel. "Go now Rajin" I told him when Demigorgon was distracted with Gareon blasting him a foot from his face.
He charged slashing Demigorgon with his Katana at the top of his chest making Demigorgon stumble backwards. Demigorgon's real power was shown when the reddish-purple or rust colored forms of our Titan's Seekers were in front of them.
"Who should I attack, I can't attack my Seeker" Sabriel said, "I can't attack my friend and lady" I heard Gareon say before I heard Raijin say that he can't attack his Seeker and friend. Den on the other hand tried attacking but Sabriel stopped him making him confused as well before Sophie told Sabriel to attack the fake.
She should've said 'attack the Sophie in front of you' instead because Sabriel and the others don't know the difference between the copies and the originals. Sophie said she didn't know it was possible to subvert the Bond between Titan and Seeker making me sigh.
"It's fine Raijin you couldn't have attacked even if you wanted to" I told him when he apologized for not attacking someone he should've known was fake. He had said that when he was taken out first because of the copy before I saw Den and Sophie run after them making me sigh again.
I saw Sophie and Zhalia basically get Hypnotized and I couldn't stand even one of them being like that so I casted Bladecall calling out the Willblade. When the Blade materialized in my hands I casted Nimblefire to avoid getting hit by the copy of Raijin who was charging at me.
I heard Den try and get Zhalia to snap out of it making me speak "don't bother Den it won't work, it's a two way streak with the Bond between Titan and Seeker" I said before Cherit said they were Hypnotized like the Titans were. I jumped backwards when I was almost hit by Demigorgon, despite skidding to a stop I still dropped the Willblade when I tripped on a crack making me fall backwards.
When I heard the Betrayer say that things were going as planned I saw Demigorgon about to attack me but the Willblade created a Force Field as it floated in the air Hilt down in front of me. Demigorgon was knocked backwards when he tried to attack again before I heard Pendragon tell me to invoke him as his Ring emerged from its place in the Blade.
"Help me protect those on Earth and awaken Legendary Titan of Champions, Pendragon" I said holding up the Ring as he came down from the Clouds. I was surprised I had Power-Bonded with him when I couldn't even call him until a few days or weeks ago.
"Help the others with your Energy Sword Breath Pendragon" I said before he activated the ability knocking down Demigorgon and destroying the copy of Sabriel, Gareon, and Raijin. It surprised the Betrayer which made me smile before the Willblade was in my hand again.
I asked Pendragon to activate Bladeflare before I jumped forward landing in front of Pendragon's claws slashing the Willblade in front of me hitting Demigorgon. He was weakened before all of the illusions disintegrated leaving me to help Sophie to not collapse since Gareon was helping Zhalia not collapse as well.
I saw that a copy of the Champion of Lord Casterwill was created which is Pendragon's weakness, because of this he looked away before Sophie asked who he was. Cherit answered before I could hearing him ask me if my Dad said anything about this and I nodded.
"Stand back everyone" I said before I raised my right hand to the sky yelling to draw in more power to summon the Titan I had mentioned earlier. "Legendary Titan of Summons, Quetzalcoatl" I said before I saw what looked to be blue Meteors falling through the sky.
I heard Betrayer ask why this was happening and I knew Demigorgon was hit with one of the streaks which means he's going to return to his Ring soon. I heard screeching from Quetzalcoatl hearing him ask why he was summoned, I felt his tail wrap around my legs from the left when his body was also to my left.
"Here's my Ring Lok Lambert, use it at your will but know this won't be forever" he told me and I nodded when his Ring appeared in my palm from what looked like a bright light blue Hurricane in my palm. I placed the Ring inside the Willblade where Pendragon's Ring would be before I held the Blade up as electricity came from the Blade in sparks.
"It's time for Demigorgon to leave" I said when I saw blue, meaning I've bonded with Quetzalcoatl, before I charged. I slashed the Willblade three times making Demigorgon return to his Ring.
I was on one knee when that happened because I lost enough strength that the Willblade disappeared because I could no longer keep it here. "Thank you Sophie" I said when she helped me stand up without falling over.
I heard Den yell at Betrayer to release his brother before the one mentioned asked if we really think we can stop what he set in motion eons ago. He told us to watch helplessly as he awakens the Spiral Mark again before we walked forward.
I heard Zhalia cast Everfight before I heard Den say that it didn't help her much, I laughed lightly when she said she only wanted to take some weight off his shoulders. I casted Everfight twice making it so I could finally see without my vision being halfway gone and walk without almost stumbling, I was glad about that.
"Gave it all I had I just hope it was enough" I said before Den and Cherit said it was because I saved them at least making me smile. Cherit said that maybe I am the Champion of Casterwill after all making me nod "I said I was and Dad tried telling me that in the Cave before it started collapsing" I said hearing Den ask Sophie if she has anything to add.
"I was only thinking that if today's the end I can't go on Adventures with any of you again" she said when she stopped walking making me sigh. "And Zhalia, mainly Zhalia" I said making her bite her lip before she nodded.
I heard two familiar Titans before I looked to my right to see Mom and Lucas "what are you doing here Mom? I thought you were going to see the Villa next week?" I asked her making her smile at me. "I am but I'm always going to be a Seeker, now stay put and rest" she told me before Lucas said that they can take it from here.
"You made it big brother" I heard Sophie say as tears fell from her eyes before Zhalia wiped them off of her face (1). Betrayer said that the quality and/or quantity of the enemy before him doesn't matter before I heard my mom speak up.
"You won't trouble our families any longer, they've suffered enough" I heard her say before I saw Lucas's and her Titans charge forward. I told Cherit that Betrayer always seems to attack from behind before he flew off of Sophie's shoulder.
I saw Lunar activate Lunar Defense before I heard my Mom tell Solar to attack and he complied before Betrayer disappeared getting knocked down by Cherit who was behind Lucas's Titan. Zhalia told Gareon 'now' before he attacked Betrayer knocking him backwards in the air before I saw Lucas, Solar, and Lucas's Titan in the air casting Spells at Betrayer.
I heard Den ask if they did it when cloth was the only thing that fell from the sky where the Betrayer once was but that didn't last long. Den and Zhalia grabbed their elbows in pain where their Spiral Mark was before a Spiral Mark appeared from the middle of the one on the ground.
The Betrayer appeared from within that small Spiral Mark chuckling evilly before he was in the center of a red cylindrical column. Red Spikes appeared from the ground destroying Mom's and Lucas's Titans before Gareon was hit after he avoided three or four of the Spikes.
Zhalia fell to the ground on her knees from Gareon returning because she hasn't recovered that much energy to stay standing once that happens. I heard the Betrayer cast Doublespell and Shadowlock on Mom and Lucas before I ran forwards.
Before I could do anything when I stopped in front of Betrayer he disappeared reappearing behind me saying there was going to be no more Audience Participation. All five of us were knocked backwards from the Spell he casted but I wasn't knocked out, it was just hard for me to move for some reason.
"Did you check the Logos Book Zhalia?" I asked her before she checked it saying that Dante said that Betrayer can't get rid of him that easily when we all sat up at the same time. I saw a familiar bubble before I saw Umbra appear from it lunging at the Betrayer before he came over to us saying he brought something for me.
"Thank you Umbra, be well" I said before he collapsed returning to wherever he's supposed to go when a pile of ashes was on the ground. Den asked if that was what he thinks it is before Sophie said that Umbra brought Dante's ashes back to us.
I saw a fire being lit behind the slope of the pile before it turned into a burning ball that headed straight for the Betrayer. The Betrayer was no more before I saw the ball land in front of us taking the form of Dante.
Dante's POV
I heard my name being called before I opened my eyes when I felt arms around my waist and a head on my chest making me look down. I saw the top of Locket's head making me smile before I put my hand on top of his head ruffling his hair.
"I didn't survive actually, I just used Copykind on Phoenix and I guess that included the Ability Rise From the Ashes" I said when I heard Sophie say that I survived in a surprised tone. "I'm okay Locket, I kept my promise" I told him before his arms tightened even more around my waist.
He stepped back though before I heard him tell me to watch out so I looked behind me to see the Betrayer reviving himself. He told me that he can't be destroyed by a mortal man making me smile before I jumped casting Doublespell and Dragonfist, before I did that however I told him I don't fit that description today which is very true.
We clashed before I saw that a part of my vision was blurry when I landed on the ground after the clash. Lok was still hurt and he chose to hug me despite the pain from it, I dodged an attack by running before I stopped to jump into the air to avoid an attack that sent rocks my way.
I casted more Spells, blue in color, at the Betrayer but I couldn't dodge the attack he casted my way making me hit the ground with a lot of force. I didn't feel a thing which annoyed me because I know that hurts, Lok's taking all the pain again and I can't scold him for it since he didn't choose it.
I stood up looking to my right to see the Betrayer cast Shocklash making me hit the ground again, with no pain from it. I heard Lok tell me he needs to help through the Mind Link but I told him not to because he's weak enough already and taking on my pain isn't helping that.
I stopped walking forwards when I heard Betrayer say my fate was sealed when he planted the fake Quatrains of Nostradamus. I heard the Betrayer cast Shadowlock but I couldn't dodge because the worst part about being injured and not feeling where is that your body's still affected by it.
Shadowlock was up to my knees when it flashed on and then off of me before I heard Den say for Sophie and Lok to hurry. I heard Locket tell me to grab Betrayer so with as much Shadowlock as I'm covered with, which is up to my waist now, I jumped grabbing him.
I casted Stoneglove keeping him where he is before I heard and saw Cherit hit his back revealing a Spiral Mark which Zhalia said is reviving him. I heard Locket cast Bladecall before he told me through the Mind Link to duck so I did narrowly missing the Willblade as it pierced Betrayer's chest.
I walked over to the group before I caught Lok who jumped at me with a smile on his face making me smile as well. I kissed his forehead before I heard Cherit say that he told us we'll save the World this time which is very true.
Time Skip: New York, Huntik Foundation HQ
I walked into the Meeting Room holding a pile of papers on my Holotome hearing Metz say that the newest Member has finally joined them. I smiled at him before I decided that when I get back to the Villa I was going to help Locket pack since he would be gone for a while as well with his new Team.
"I'm guessing Lok's going to lead Huntik's best Team with you being a new Member of the Huntik Council?" Metz ask and making me nod with a smile. "He's the best Seeker for the job and currently he's in South America leading the Team right now" I told him seeing him nod with a smile.
Scene Change: Amazon Basin, South America
Lok's POV
I was on the edge of a Cliff with Den, Sophie, and Zhalia behind me as I searched the area ahead. I had my hand over my eyes to block the Sun as I looked for it smiling when I heard Dante tell me that we'll be moving to New York because of his new position.
