Hey peoples I decided to type another one continuing from where I left off with Kurai's story, so here is…
Something Interesting
Chapter 46: Deeper in deception
Kurai's pov
Here we find ourselves in quite a bind. The places are same! Just more sinister, it's creepy.
"Kurai look!" I hear Aqua shout near one of the houses.
"There's a sign here…" she says standing near a sign a few feet off. The sign stands out for some reason and I'm sure it was not there before. Anyway Shizuka and I get closer as Aqua reads the sign.
"Here-in lies the point of no return. Backward a journey unfulfilled yet a travel of bliss. Forward a path of true terror as forward is a path straight and true. We surround ourselves with lies when seeking comfort from a harsh reality, choose your destination wisely."
This is getting stranger by the minute.
"Okay let's go forward." I say
"Are you sure Kurai-kun?" Shizuka asks me.
I nod, "Yes, I don't think going back is going to get us anyway."
"Kurai is right, running from the truth doesn't solve the problem." Aqua says.
"Okay then let's go! I'll follow you." Shizuka says and I smile.
…
…
We press on after another round we see the houses again, this time the houses are in ruins.
"Is that sign still there?" I ask and we go to see if the sign is still there.
The sign is gone, in its place is two coffins. Aqua examines the one and Shizuka examines the other.
"There's something written here." Aqua says.
"Same here." Shizuka says
"What does it say?" I ask.
"It says, 'here lies… Aqua'"
"This one has my name on it." Shizuka says.
Strange
Suddenly the coffins open! The girls move back but a dark vortex pulls them in faster than I could take action! They didn't even have a chance to scream or shout or anything!
The coffins disappear.
"Aqua! Shizuka!" I call out. No response.
After a bit of searching around and shouting I worry for them.
'This is bad, I feel like if something bad happens to them then it's all my fault!'
I call out there names again and still no answer! I activate my Sharingan in desperation but I see nothing! How is this possible!?
'Forward, I must trust that the girls are alright and press forward. For their sakes.'
I go forward. Soon I see the house where the town elder lived. I go to the house and the try to open the door but my hand passes through it. I activate my Sharingan again and I see that the house is an illusion. Then I see an attack coming my way. I jump to the back and the spot I was standing by earlier is now filled with black flame.
"Is this Amaterasu?" I say
"Amaterasu? This is the power of darkness." I hear someone say and I see someone in the distance coming into view.
It's a guy in a black cloak, his a bit older than me and has long silver hair with bangs that covers his temples with silver eyes to match his hair.
'Wait did he say darknesss!? There is more besides that other guy!?'
"Darkness you say, tell me do you know a guy called Regulas?"
"So you know my master?" he asks me.
"I met him once, tell me, where are my friends and what is the deal with this village?" I ask
"It's not a concern of yours." he says arrogantly he then creates spears which are black, his dark power. The spears float above him and with the movement of his hand they are sent my way.
I jump back to dodge with success then with my Sharingan I see him to my left with a spear in hand. He thrusts aiming to skewer me and connects. When he connects he smirks and I smirk right back making look at me puzzled. He notices me when I place my hand on his shoulder.
"Genjutsu?" he asks a bit impressed.
I use my use my electric shock to put him down.
I notice that it was a clone because when he disappear in a dark swirl. I see him off to the side.
"Your pretty good." he says to me.
"You're not bad yourself." I say back with a smile.
"Now it starts for real." he says
"Bring it on." I say.
"He comes at me again, his fists infused with darkness"
"Katon: goukakyou no jutsu!" I use the grand fireball.
"Dark wind!" I hear him shout. He takes my fireball out and I see dark winds which blow me back violently.
I get up off the ground a bit dazed and see him running to me with a grin on his face.
I hold fire in my left hand and a sword of lightning in my other hand. When he reaches me he attacks with punches and kicks all infused with darkness. My Sharingan allows me to predict his moves though so dodging is easy. He then creates a three pronged spear and slashes. I block with my sword with success then I shoot a fireball at him from my hand and close range and I hit. He is blown back and down. He looks at me from the ground and looks at his cloak, its scorched near his chest area but he seems fine. He get up and disappears!
I see him, he is moving really fast and he attacks me from the left, punches me in the face with dark fists then I see him to my right about to punch me from that side but I manage to block but it still hurts. He then kicks me on my chest and I stagger backwards but I muster the energy to do a jutsu so I use one hand sign, "Lightning style: finger bolt!" I shoot lightning from my fingers but I miss as he is too fast. He dodged and threw a dark ball at me which I dodged but he was upon me again after that giving me no room to breathe. He punched but I used a dark aura to shield me nullifying his attack.
"What's this?" he says shocked and he also made one fatal mistake, he looked into my eyes.
I used my Sharingan to place him in a genjutsu which made him fall to his knees.
"Damnit…"
"Where are my friends?"
