****************************************************************************

the clouds were gone but everything was black. So black that you could see a cloud of star dust in the night sky. Red, blue and white colours flowing brightly everywhere. But corrupting the beautiful sight was the most devilish, evil, hell spawned monstrosity. It's head itself was the size of Jupiter and with each breath it took, the whole world practically shook. It's horns were black and curved backwards like a rams. It looked like a giant sized Ifrit only 1 million times bigger, stronger, eviler, and more satan related.
The stars were seen shining brightly, but the clouds of earth were acting strangely. Swirling quickly flashing colours of blue, red, orange, black, purple, and green..like everything was in fast forward.
Panther: raises his hand up to block the light from penetrating his eyes as he inspects the monster
The monster raises his claws, sharp , matching the horns on its head. It bared its teeth, they were tinted yellow, but looked deadly. The body itself was red, and flames were shooting out randomly here and there. It flexed its muscles. It roared, flames going everywhere, knocking Panther off his feet. It looked like it could swallow the world just by picking it up and tossing it in his mouth
The devilish monster seemed to be floating, not really going anywhere
Panther: lies on the ground as he is knocked over by another loud roarwhispers to himself What the hell is that?..
The mane on the back of it's bulky, red neck swirled where there was no wind, but as if there were. It looked down at Panther, eyeing him
Panther: [ It sees me] stands up quickly, fighting the wind WHO SENT YOU!
everything seemed to slow suddenly, the clouds moving slowly then for a second they would swirl quickly then return to the slow pace, repeating this over and over, the mane on the back of the monsters head did the same
Voice: It spoke in a low, sinister voice, fire seen in its throat with each word Curiosity killed the cat...it glares down at Panther with burning coals of eyes, floating slowly
Panther: AND SATISFACTION BROUGHT IT BACK!he shouted back at the beast
Voice: it growled lowly Two men were quietly talking of there elderly leader. One said that the leader would die soon and the other stated that he was going blind. The leader turned back at them and said," They also say he's going deaf.."he stated this in a low rumbling tone
Panther:. . .[ I get it, no need to shout]. . ......Why must you do this? Who sent you!?
Voice: Nobody knows everything, for it is impossible..it raised its massive clawed hand in the air as if he was reciting poetry
Panther: I just want them back, be humble and let me have them back
Voice: he snapped back in a sharp tone, his voice still low It's hard to be humble when the world is bite size..at the words "bite sized" he snapped at the whole world itself, nearly taking half of it with him
Panther: his heart thumps wildly but he continues If you won't tell me who sent you, then tell me what you are.....
Voice: Ashes my air, darkness my flesh..
Panther: [ this is getting nowhere]..Just give them back to me and nobody gets hurt!
Voice: You speak with courage for being such a small speck the pupil of his coal eyes gets smaller
Panther: Call me what you want! It doesn't matter, the outcome will be the same!
a swirl of bright white light is seen not far from Panther. The same man from earlier with the white hair and eyeshadow appears and floats downward to the ground, looking at both the monster and Panther
Panther: You...a wave of flowing energy is seen around him
???: You seem so confident...heh heh heh heh heh, Do you like him? Your new best friend.
Panther: flies at the man, missing him by a long shot
???: Ah ah ah, if you wish to fight me, you must prove to me that you are worthy.
Panther: Worthy to fight you?
???: Your opponentpoint to the monster
Panther: You have got to be kidding....even you aren't strong enough to fight that thing. It's a million times your size
???: How do you think I make it do what I want?...hehsnaps fingers
The monster roars and holds his throat, flames seen burning from deep within
Panther: readies himself
The monster releases a humongous fire ball bigger than the earth itself and it comes flying at it at 1264 mph
Panther: Holy s**thides his face as he waits for a big explosion of some sort
the explosion does come, but he find himself still alive and unharmed
Panther: he looks forward and sees the mysterious man standing there, unhurt. The monster has dissapeared
???: I just relized he was much to easy for you to defeatturns bak at Panther, floating in the sky
Panther: [ Is this idiot crazy!? First he slays Sheik and does something with Samus and now he says I could defeat Satan!]
???: I have an opponent much much harder for yousnickers evily, the smile on his face crawling with evil
Panther: Who are you?
???: If you really want to know.........I am the Dark Messenger.
Panther: Dark Messenger?
???: Kuja.....THE Dark Messenger.
Panther: Why must you do this to me, I have done nothing to deserve this! I simply tried to help!
Kuja: Maybe because I've been searching for you.
Panther: nearly crying Let me have them back
Kuja: Oh, I'll give you them back Sheik appears in his arms, limp, pale, and lifeless
Panther: Sheik! rushes foward before being knocked to his feet by some unknown force
Kuja: closes his eyes and begins to chant something
Panther: Leave her body be!tries to get up but is being held down by vines that are shooting up from the ground Erg grr argstruggles
Kuja continues to chant and Sheik's body begins to rise up
Panther: What...eyes throb as he watches fearfully
Sheik's eyes open as she comes to life suddenly, her eyes glow bright white-yellow and she goes under a transformation. Her clothes begin to fade and shread to peices, blowing away in the wind, leaving her body bare. Her hair flows as green-black vine like things begin to cover her body, coming from her back. They form a sort of full body bathing suit.
Suddenly spikes, curves, and curls begin to jut out from the vines creating a sort of flowing, tattered green and black dress. Finally the last curls furl up from her shoulders creating a collar around her head like (0) her head being the round thing.
Kuja: has stopped chanting and now floats towards Sheik Ah yes, Panther, meet your opponent
Panther: whispers to himself in shock Sheik's back alive, I know she is..I feel her.
Kuja: She IS very beautiful, isn't she?
Panther: You keep your hands away from her!!struggles against the vines, but the more he struggles the tighter they pull
Kuja: floats in a circle around her and stops by her right shoulder, coming dangerously close Yes, my dark gift to an even darker soul.
Panther: What have you done to her?!
Kuja: Everyone has a bit of evil in them, I draw that evil out and make them become pure evil..isn't she grandher takes the newly tranformed Sheik by the hand, and kisses it
Sheik: Kuja...her voice echoes, the same sweet voice, but in a diffrent evil way
Panther: I told you to stay away from her!!snaps the vines in his anger and begins to fly up towards them
Kuja: Sheik..?
Sheik: nods her head and thrusts both her hands out at Panther AWAY!
a gust of wind blows Panther into the ground, creating a 6 foot pit
Panther: Sheik...what has he done to you?climbs out of the pit and looks up
Kuja: Yes my little canarystrokes his finger near her thoat How does it feel to be powerful?
Sheik:. . . .I feel....... alive
Kuja:laughs Bitter vengence never glowed so bright, nor sang so sweet..looks at Sheik....Beauty stirs the memory like a sweet perfume excites the air.looks back at Panther then grabs Sheik and kisses her
Panther: You!can't move his body from the sudden shocktears begin to drip from his eyes Sheik..
Sheik: puts her hand on Kuja's face in embrace
Kuja: Now my beloved canary! Destroy the one who betrayed you, who tried to kill you!
Sheik: turns her face towards Panther, her eyes still glowing white- yellow
Panther: It was not I who killed you! Sheik, listen to me, He is tricking you!
Sheik: turns her head towards Kuja
Kuja: It was he, he holds the sword that slayed you, it was that sword that wore your blood!
Sheik: rushes towards Panther and frantically begins to beat him. Punching him, hitting him, slashing him on the face with spikes
Panther: doesn't struggle against it I can't touch her....something tell me she is still in there...ughgets thrown to the side
Sheik: Die traitorbegins to summon little black shadows of demons
Kuja: Panther, never underestimate the ability of natural forcess to adapt to unatural influences
the little shadow demons begin to rip and tear at Panther's flesh.
Panther: unsheathes Kuja's sword and begins to slash at the demons
Sheik: Their language has no word for thier own death, only the death of others.
Panther: slashes wildly here and there, unable to keep up with the shadows.
Kuja: watches in amusement
Panther: pants, as a trickle of blood streams down his cheek, like a tear
Kuja: Don't let him live, make him feel the pain you felt.
Sheik: notices the drop of blood drip from Panther's cheek The touch of death is never gentle.
Kuja: If you only knew what awaits you after death, you would leave all you hold dear. A beings tenderness is just a weakness in a pretty package, Sheik being the tenderness in her beautiful body. No matter, the dead bird does not leave its nest.
Panther: while Kuja was talking, Panther was brutally beaten, lying on the ground he whinces in pain, blood in patches here and there on the grass [ she's too strong, even if I wanted to I couldn't kill her] Sheik...listen.......love......remember love......
Sheik: slaps Panther hard on the cheek, sending him flying
Kuja: Sheik, to stay alive you need some of his blood. If you wish to stay powerful and alive and avenge your death
Sheik: I understandflies down next to Panther, landing next to his head
Panther: lies on ground helplessly as he looks up at Shiekhis eyes begin to throb at the sight of her. Like a vampire she had fangs, long sharp ones.[ Just like my dream, almost exactly like my dream]
Sheik: I must live, must stay alive, must avenge myself.picks Panther up, setting him on his feet
Panther: stands straight to look at Sheik, blood dripping from him wildly
Sheik: the very scent of Panther's blood draws her closer Love....
Panther: smiles Sheik..Do you remember?
Sheik: Love....hugs Panther
Kuja: What is this?
Panther: You do Sheik, you do rememb-aheyes throb as a slicing of flesh is heard, two sharp stings tingle his neck as his hug on Sheik loosens
Sheik: still holds Panther, she lets him go with a the taste of his blood on her tongue, dropping him to the ground I love noone, especially those who betray!licks the rest of his blood from her lips
Panther: lies on the ground[ how could this happen, where did I go wrong? ...I thought love prevailed over all]eyes throbbing,his breath tightens as he feels his own blood, his own warm life seeping from him, lying on the ground he waits for the final blow that will end his life forever. The final blow struck from the very person that loved him most.
**************************************************************************** ****** .....is this it? Is this the end of Panther and the world itself? Was Panther wrong, is he not the strongest warrior in the universe? Has Panther finally met his match or is there something stronger?........and......will the final blow be stuck in the next chapter, by the person that said she was the one that loved Panther so very much?........stay tuned for the next chapter...Chapter 9 ....The Final Blow...
