I will finish this story despite not getting as many reviews as I thought I would get. My only rant for this story and now that I got that out of my system, here is the next chapter. I am sorry for the lateness but Fanfiction would not let me edit this story.
A Fury Unleashed
I gave a small smile as I recognized that voice in an instant. I turned my head around and said in a rather humorous and mocking tone "Well…well…well…if it isn't Pete. How have you been doing?"
It was in fact Pete himself in all of his glory…if he had any glory. He was still as large as I can remember and had that face that could give you a pretty good idea of his intelligence level. The only thing I notice different about him was that it looked like he was wearing armor this time around although it was brightly decorated in red, blue, brown, and yellow which made him stand out like an apple among oranges.
While I was looking at his armor, I had a strange feeling that I had seen it before. However, I was unable to place my finger on it. I decided to not worry about that for now and focus my attention back on Pete.
The fact that he was here was a surprise but not as bad as it could have been. I knew that there was a Heartless presence before finding out that Pete was here but I was unsure of weather they came because they were commanded to or because they were attracted to the amount of darkness that existed in this world. I was glad that I was able to find out the answers to those questions at that moment.
I rose up my Keyblade so it was pointing at Pete and declared "So how are we going to rumble today Pete old boy? You going to send a large Heartless for me to beat or are you going to face me yourself like a real man."
I seemed to have struck a nerve as Pete started to throw one of his tantrums and said "Oh just you wait pipsqueak. I'm going to show you why you should never mess with the mighty Pete."
Despite the situation, I could not help but smile. Dealing with Pete has always been a joy for me while I was dealing with the Organization and I had a feeling that today was not going to be any different.
I brought my Keyblade to my ready position and said "Well then 'mighty' Pete, why don't you show me what you got!"
Before he could react, I charged at him with my Keyblade poised to strike him on the head.
I could see that he was shocked by my sudden attack. However, there was something about that smile of his that caused me to get concerned. Pete had never smiled when I came over to deliver a good combo on him. I thought "There's something wrong here?"
It did not take long for me to realize what that was.
The moment when I thought my blade would connect; it hit some sort of shield and bounced off. Stunned for a moment, I quickly launched several attacks but none of them made any connections.
I quickly jumped back to put some distance between myself and Pete while I tried to figure out what had happen. I knew Pete did not call out his wind shield as he was just standing there the whole time. My mind tried to work out all the possibilities that might be the reason to why none of my attacks seem to connect with him.
It was then that Pete said "Is that all you've got Key-brat. I guess maybe you are just not that good enough for the mighty Pete."
I growled in anger and annoyance as I felt Aros surged a bit. However, I knew that this was not the time to unleash him until I knew exactly what was keeping Pete safe. I had first thought that someone would be using wards but I quickly dismissed that when I remembered that my Keyblade was capable to attacking someone without triggering any sort of wards.
It was then that my eyes returned back to the weird color armor that he was wearing. For some strange reason, I felt like that it held the key to Pete's defense.
Before I could muse on that, I saw Pete coming at me with an arm reeling back for a punch. I quickly dodged it and attempted to keep my distance as he kept charging at me with the intent of hitting me. After a few minutes, he stopped and almost doubled over in sweat. I took this opportunity to study his armor again.
"I know I have seen something like this before…but where?" I thought in annoyance that I was unable to figure out something like this.
It was then that it hit me like a ton of bricks. It was a collection of armor that was worn by the Elite enemies back in the Dragon Realms. It sounded inconceivable because I had been in the Dragon Realms for a good while and there was no threat of Heartless at anytime I was there. But if I was right, then I might have been in trouble. I knew that Elite armor was impervious to any attack except for an attack based on the element that they were made out of. Just having two would have provided you with a great defense but four was going to be a hard nut to crack. I needed to also considered the fact that he had more than the four that I see and there was a chance that Pete could have all eight.
"What am I suppose to do now?" I thought as a worm of doubt started to form in my stomach. I had no more time to think as Pete was once again on me, this time throwing his exploding marbles and throwing his exploding bowling ball. I managed to avoid most of them but I did suffer some minor burns.
I was in a bad situation and both Pete and I knew it. In all accounts, he was considered invincible in this world as there was no way for someone to figure out how to destroy his armor. I knew that I had to stop him here and now but I was worried about the Varden.
For while my focus was on Pete; the Varden were starting to get pushed back by the invading forces. The Heartless Urgals were showing no mercy as they continued their relentless push. I could now start to feel the effects of the wards I had placed on Eragon and Saphira starting to drain my strength.
The situation was getting more and more desperate and I started to feel like there was nothing that I could do. That feeling was resonating as anger and it was getting channeled to Aros. He took it gratefully, savoring the feel of the emotions that was now pouring into my body.
It was then that Aros said "I can't contain my fury any longer."
I then replied in thought "Do you think you can take down Pete?"
I felt him smirk and he replied "I am the best person…dragon you have that can take down that Elite armor."
I nodded in agreement and started to channel my drive to Aros. I could now feel his fury coursing through my body giving me strength and focus.
I got up and looked at Pete and said in a deep tone voice that caused Pete to jerk in surprise "I think that it is time you got a sample of my true power." Pete was unresponsive but that could have been caused by the fact that he was staring at my eyes.
One was purple and the other was green.
Eragon POV
We were getting beating back and there was nothing that I could do to slow the Urgals down. I could still see that purple dragon flying above the Urgals, doing his or her best to slow them down but I was not sure that it was working.
It was then that I felt a surge of power coming from somewhere in the Urgal army. Thinking that it was a magic attack, I searched for it with both my mind and eyes.
It was then that I saw a large purple blast inside the Urgal lines. I first thought that it came from one of our magicians but I doubted that thought. It was also enough for the Urgals to stop advancing on us and turned to look and see what had happen.
I saw that the purple dragon's face was shocked and it did not take long for me to see why.
There were two…creatures standing in the center of the blast. The one on the right looked like some kind of deformed cat with colorful armor. I could see that his face was one of scared and shook.
I then turned my head to see the one on the left and I realized why that weird cat might be scared.
It was a dragon…or at least I thought it was a dragon for I have never seen a dragon standing on only his hind legs. Unlike the purple dragon, I had a feeling like this one was a male. His over scales were purple but they also had these weird black marking on them. His underbelly was golden and also had those strange marking but this time they were red. This dragon had six horns from what I could count, two of them were golden while four were ivory colored. That ivory color was also the same for his claws and the golden color was present on his back spikes. His wings were red and had this weird scythe like weapon on their tips which was the same thing that his tail was set in.
"Whoever he is?" I thought "I hope he is on our side." Saphira said nothing but I felt that she agreed with me.
So it was Pete but will Aros be enough to stop him. Find out in the next chapter until then…
