Chapter 4: The Battle
Shinigami took off in a gust of wind, and wings... Not before long, they found that they were being followed by their enemy, only this time, Shinigami had no choice but to face them..... Quickly setting Heero on the ground, and telling him to run for the temple, Shinigami took scythe in hand, and was ready to fight...
Heero couldn't help but stand, frozen, and watch, but it wasn't long before he was spotted, and attacked himself by some of the enemy. Putting his skills to good use, Heero aimed his attacks to the wings, hoping to ground as many as possible, helping Shinigami by decreasing the amounts of air attacks. He snapped one wing's bone with the hilt of his gun. With another, he shot it, only to find the bullet was stopped, mid- air, and then it dropped useless to the ground. Okay, conventional didn't work, maybe laser would. Heero quickly produced a laser gun... Which shot the other in the right wing - tip. But, not long after, all looked up, and so did Heero, to find Shinigami flying, full speed for the temple. Heero ran, and made it just as Shinigami fell to the ground. "Bea lay, sificius, suverumm, delaudata, scidiarum!", he stated. (Translation: Bay- lay, Jiffy, with an s in place of the j, so very without the y, room, d allow, without the a, or w, dater, sky, dare room.)
The doors opened on command, and both ran inside, just as the doors shut behind Heero's back. "Okay, that buys me some time....", Shinigami stated.
"Time for what?", Heero stated.
"To preform the chants needed to separate myself from Duo.", Shinigami answered.
"Oh...", came the reply.
So, Shinigami set to work, he chanted in mono- tone, lighting a flame in the center of a circle that Heero only now noticed. He threw something in, and it turned black as night... Heero watched, awed as the separation started to take place. A figure with long black hair, and yellowish, cat- like eyes seemed to emerge from Duo's back as Shinigami chanted, soon one voice became two, one Duo's, the other, Shinigami's, the first figure was nearly completely separated before there was a loud crack of something against the stone door, but the chanting continued.... Heero felt his stomach in his throat as the chanting was completed, and Shinigami was completely separated from Duo's body.... He stood looking at the door with his yellow- cat eyes, his dread- locked hair shifted as though by some invisible wind... He placed one hand against the door, and in a brilliant flash of what seemed to be like lighting, he made it shatter, and all the evil Darkling Angels fell victims to sudden bursts of flames that licked at them, till they died, horrible, and a mutilating death. "In all this excitement, do not forget about the safety of your friend, Heero Yuy.", Shinigami spoke.
Heero let out a quick gasp, before running back into the temple to find Duo laying on the stone floor.... His braid a mess, and his cloths wrinkled, and torn.... His face caked with ashes..... He looked white as the dead, and frail as frost on a spider's web.... Heero looked up at Shinigami's form standing over them both. "He's still a live.", Shinigami whispered to Heero.
"Is he going to be fine?", Heero asked.
"Yes, he will, he now knows all of what has happened....", Shinigami stated, "However, it is not my time to part, I still owe the both of you for your help, him above all....",
Heero gently laid his jacket over Duo's still form, and waited for day, when Shinigami would return with their rewards....
