Delicious Torment
Ch 13
"Sian, you may claim that you're Kento and Kaye's son, but you don't have the right to blame them for you having an armor! Besides, you have another think coming, if you believe that we're going to allow you to even try and kill them." Ryo said as he and the others got ready to fight.
"I thought that you might say that, but before we fight, I think that someone might want this back." Sian taunted as he held out Kaye's kanji ball in plain view.
"How did you get Kaye's kanji ball?" Cye asked in surprise.
"Actually, that would be my doing. I stripped her of her armor and sub armor, and now she's totally defenseless." Badamon replied with a smirk.
"I'm not totally defenseless, I can still fight even without my armor." Kaye said as she was about to make her move.
Just before she was going to go for her kanji ball, Sian threw it back at her. Kaye caught it, and then she and the Ronins gave him a confused look, but still stayed on their guard. "Just because I want to kill the both of you, doesn't mean that I'm totally heartless, I'm willing to give you a fighting chance. Even though, I'm not sure it'll be much of one anyway," Sian replied as he looked towards her. "Well, are you going to transform?"
"Lord Talpa, are you just going to allow that boy to get away with that?" Badamon asked in shock.
"Calm yourself, Badamon, this could provide to be quite entertaining." Talpa replied as he watched them with interest.
Kaye looked between Sian and her kanji ball, and then she closed her eyes and called forth her armor. When she was fully tranformed, she then opened her eyes and stared directly at him. "Sian, before we start this fight, I have to know. The whole time that you were at the center, didn't any of it mean anything to you, or were you just putting on an act?" Kaye asked.
Sian didn't answer her right away, "Don't listen to her boy, you're the one that wanted this revenge on them. So don't blow it by listening to your heart. You told me that you're hard core, and that nothing can phase you, so don't let her words confuse you. and make you think otherwise." Dante said as he was reminding Sian of what he told him.
"Sian, look deep within yourself, you know that you don't want to do this." Sage said as he and the others stayed alert to everyone in Talpa's throne room.
Sian covered his ears as he was trying to block out the noise, "shut up! Everybody just shut up," Sian replied angrily. "I've made up my mind, I don't want to live with this curse any more. The two of you have to die, and that's all thats to it!"
Before any of them could move, an energy wall shot up from the ground cutting them off from Kento, Kaye, and Sian. "Sorry, but I can't let you interfere with a little family squable, now can I," Dante asked with a smirk. "Besides, I think that you're going to have your hands full with them anyway."
"It's about time that we get to have some fun, I was starting to get bored." Sekhmet said as he and the other warlords got ready to fight the rest of the Ronins.
Back in Toyama...
"Jakobe, I was wondering when you were going to get back." Taki said as he was waiting for him.
"Taki, I should say that I'm surprised to see you, but then I'll be lying." Jakobe replied with a smirk as he slowly turned around and faced him.
"You know that this has been a long time coming." Taki said as he kept a careful eye on him.
"I knew that this would happen sooner or later. so then. what do you say, let's get down to business." Jakobe replied as he stood ready.
"Sounds good to me, but why don't we do this the old fashioned way?" Taki asked as he got into a fighting stance.
"I was hoping that you would say that." Jakobe replied as he too got into a fighting stance.
In Talpa's throne room...
"Everyone, get out of the way, I'm gonna try to break down that energy wall," Ryo said as he got ready to deliver his sure-kill. "Flare up now!"
Ryo's sure-kill hit the energy wall at full force, but as soon as it hit, it evaportated. "Wha, no way! What just happened? It should have worked." Cye asked.
A laugh came from above, "what are you laughing about?" Sage asked as they looked up at Dante.
"How careless of me, I forgot to tell you something about that energy wall." Dante replied with a smirk.
"Yea, and what's that?" Rowen asked in annoyance.
"That whatever attack you throw at it, it'll absorb it and then transfer the attack's power directly to me. Increasing my powers and strength each time." Dante replied with a cruel smile.
"Aw man, he can't be serious." Kento said in disbelief.
"He's very serious, dad, in the future that's how hunters like him weaken his prey, and then when they're weak enough, he goes in for the kill." Sian replied as his eyes narrowed angrily.
"You know all of this talking is getting rather boring, Sian, if you're going to kill them, then do it already." Dante said as he was showing his annoyance.
"Sian..." Kaye started to say.
"Be quiet! I don't want to hear any more from either of you! If I want this curse to end, then I have to do this, there's no other way." Sian shot back.
"That's not true, there's always another way. You just have to know where to look." Kaye replied.
"Dante's right, I'm wasting time talking with you. You're just biding time so that your friends can find their way through that energy wall. I can tell you this right now, you're wasting your breath, because there's no way that they'll be able to get through it in time to help either of you." Sian said angrily as he attacked them both at once, making them separate from each other.
"There has to be a weak spot in that thing somewhere." Sage said as he was defending himself from Cale.
"I know, Sage, but where is it?" Rowen asked as he jumped out of the way from Dais's attack.
"From what I can tell there's only two people that know where that would be, and I have a feeling that neither of them is going to tell us any time soon." Cye replied as he attacked Sekhmet.
"You Ronins, should be concentrating more on our battle, and not how you can help your friends." Anubls said as he dodged from Ryo's attack.
The battle with Kento, Sian, and Kaye kept on getting more and more fierce with each passing minute. They matched each other blow by blow, but every once in a while someone would get in a better shot. Sian decided to finally kick it up a notch, he became faster, making it just a little harder for them to defend against his attacks. Then when Sian launched his next attack, he sent both of them flying across the room, they would of kept flying back, except that the pillars that they went through made them come to a complete stop. The rubble from the top of the pillars was falling and buried them.
"Kento, Kaye, NO!" Ryo called out angrily.
"Warlords, stand down." Talpa ordered.
"But master Talpa?, why?" Sekhmet asked as he looked towards him in confusion.
"Sekhmet, don't question my orders. Just do it." Talpa replied angrily. Sekhmet and the other warlords looked at each other in confusion, and then they decided it was a better idea to not disobey Talpa's orders.
"This doesn't make any sense, why did Talpa order them to stop fighting? He's up to something." Sage wondered.
Just then Cye gasped in alarm, "Cye, what is it?" Rowen asked as he looked over at him.
"Rowen, the link, it's gone." Cye replied as he looked back with worry.
"What! How?" Ryo asked in confusion.
"I don't know, but for some reason, I can't sense her, I can't sense her at all." Cye replied.
"No, they can't be! They have to be alive!" Rowen said as he and the others looked over to the rubble.
Sian stood there, breathing hard from their battle, as he watched for any kind of movement. "Are they dead? No, they're not, because if they were, then I wouldn't be here. So they're still alive." Sian thought as he got back into a fighting position.
"Hey, guys, look over there!" Sage said as he directed their attention to the pile of debris that seemed to be moving. As they watched in anticipation, Kento and Kaye gasped for air as they broke half way through the fallen debris.
"Hey, if I wanted to fly, then I would have paid for airline tickets." Kento said in a half joking matter.
"Get out of there you two!" Rowen called over to them as he saw that Sian was bringing his bo-staff high above his head.
"We can't, we're stuck!" Kaye called back to him as she and Kento were trying get out. In the corner of his eyes, Kento saw that Sian was about ready to deliver his attack. He then pulled Kaye as close into him as he could, so he would be able to shield her. Kento then turned his head so he could glare straight into Sian's eyes. Sian stared right back, there was something in Kento's eyes that made him falter. Sian started to slowly lower his bo-staff to his side, but then he quickly raised it again. Back and forth this went on, it was like Sian was struggling with himself, either that or torturing them.
Dante was starting to get more than a little annoyed with this. He was starting to wonder if Sian even had the stomach to kill his parents. "What's wrong with you, boy, kill them already, do you want to get rid of your curse or not?" Dante asked as he watched Sian struggle.
"I can't, I can't do it, but I have to. I don't want this curse. Why did you two do this to me, why?" Sian asked as he finally threw down his bo-staff to the ground next to his feet. Sian then fell to his knees, feeling in the first time fear for realizing what he almost had done.
Kento turned his head from Sian, with a feeling deep down that Sian wouldn't go through with it. He then slowly let Kaye out of his embrace. She looked over to him in confusion, the look that he had in his eyes gave her a feeling that it was all over. But just then Dante gave a scream of pure agony, and dived for Sian. His eyes were wild with anger, he and Sian rolled by them as they were trying to get out of the rest of the fallen debris. "Why boy, why didn't you kill them? You had the perfect opportunity and you blew it! Why?" Dante asked angrily as they continued to struggle.
"We've shouldn't have came back here! I know that now!" Sian replied as he was trying to hold Dante off.
"I've warned you, boy, if you didn't follow through on the mission, then I would take it over for you! And now, I have no choice but to do what you couldn't do in the first place! Say goodbye to your parents!" Dante yelled angrily as he shot out some kind of energy attack towards them.
Just as Kento and Kaye finally made it out of the debris, the attack hit and sent them through the wall, falling. "Mom! Dad! NO!" Sian yelled as he dived after them.
