CHAPTER EIGHT: THE FINAL BATTLE

wwf2000 walked closer.

" I told you, you would regret leaving me behind. Ahh, revenge is sweet. " As DKB steeled himself for the final blow, a loud explosion was heard. DKB opened his eyes to find a kid of 13, rocket launcher in hand walking towards him. No.10 was lying in the corner, dazed. The kid told him:

" Someone will come to help you now. Believe what she says. " As he turned to leave, his coat arm shifted, and Larry could see a tattoo, it said: SKL. He shouted:

" Pierre is that you? " but he was already gone, but DKB knew that was his cousin. Just then, a light appeared from above. A girl with Black hair and a Gunblade descended. DKB recognised her almost immediately.

" Samantha? "

" Been a while, hasn't it? "

" Thought you were killed 10 years ago. Nice SFX by the way. "

" I am dead you moron, my spirit's come to help you. "

" Oh, I thought you came to haunt me 'cause of that 20 bucks I never gave you back. "

" Nah, don't need money in the afterlife. I'm going to help you beat that guy. Bring me your PA3. " DKB went and fetched it. She chanted some words and lay the legendary Excalibur Gunblade on top of it. There was a blinding light and the PA3 transformed to a sword. Lady Death spoke:

" This is the legendary sword, Sparda. Use it and the power inside to defeat your foe. "

" Thanks, but what's this " Power within " story? " Lady Death started ascending again.

" You'll see. Good Luck. " She had disappeared. There was a groan in the corner and wwf2000 stood up. " I don't know what just happened, but it ain't gonna help you. And after I'm through with you I'll go back for Barra, HK ahh the whole lot of you. " He saw the sword.

" That toothpick ain't gonna make much difference. You're gonna die!!! " With this he lunged towards DKB. He suddenly felt a surge of power go through his body, without reason he yelled: " Devil Trigger! " and was encased in a blue light. No.10's Gunblade bounced right off. Firmly grasping the sword by its hilt, DKB rushed forward. He Airhiked him into the sky and smashed him down to the ground. Then he did something he always wanted to do, he yelled to a fatally wounded wwf2000:

" This is for all the pain and loss you cost me!! " he then activated his Renzokuken finishing move, smashing wwf2000 18 times upside the head, with the final hit smashing his skull and slicing his spine in two. He landed on the floor; Devil mode worn off and fatigue setting in, he looked at the emaciated remains of wwf2000 and pity set in. He shouldered his dead body and started running. He ran past a room and saw dynamite piled high. Hoping to high heaven that Aya was out, he set a time delayed Inferno and ran for the ramparts. The dynamite went off…

Outside the base….

" What exactly did Larry say the signal was gonna be? " HK asked

" Dunno, said we'll know it when we see it. " Suddenly, a whole tower of the castle collapsed. The guys looked up.

" If that isn't the signal, then I'm a donkey's uncle. Blow it Barra!! " The whole castle seemed to erupt into flames, then sank down to the bottom of the earth. Eve spoke up.

" Think he made it out? " Lyingbastard replied:

" Yep, there he goes. " He pointed to DKB swimming across the moat to the shore, with wwf2000 across his shoulders. The members of Philantropy rushed to greet him.

" Man, you look like a truck hit you. " DKB wearily replied:

" More like a ton of metal. " With this, he threw wwf2000's corpse to the floor. Together they watched the castle disappear. The last sign of the rebel mitochondria disappeared, their rebellion defeated again.
