Chap. 13

"Dizzy."

The blue-haired gear looked past Ky and at Vengeance, eyes glaring and feathers standing on end. Vengeance merely stared back before Dizzy turned her attention to Testament, who still had his hands on his head.

"Testament?"

Testament slowly lifted his head to look at her, but then screamed and gripped his head harder. Dizzy glared back at Vengeance.

"Let him go!"

Vengeance sneered back, "He belongs to me now."

Testament began to writhe in agony and Dizzy pleaded, "Please fight it. You can do it, Testament."

"You are a gear, created to destroy humanity. I am a Commander-gear. You must obey." Vengeance shot back.

Testament's screams grew louder and he jumped to his feet, scythe in hand, but unsure of who to attack.

"That's it. I am Vengeance. You must obey."

Testament's eyes glowed red as he stared at Dizzy. He then began to crouch, readying to attack.

"Dizzy, get away!" Ky shouted.

Unfortunately, the sudden call alerted Testament's attention away from Dizzy and to Ky. In a rush of wind, Testament swooped at Ky and struck sideways. Ky managed a block, but it was too weak and he was hurled to the side and skidded in the dirt. Ky groaned in pain as Testament began to stride toward him. His pace quickened and he was ready to jump when Dizzy flew between him and Ky.

"Dizzy...get...away...run..."

"No." she said firmly. Dizzy then looked at Testament and pleaded once again.

"Testament, please. Don't make me fight you. Remember me, your little one. Please remember."

Testament stopped briefly and raised the scythe. Dizzy merely waited for something, anything from him. But suddenly Testament jumped again and came right at her. Dizzy didn't move as the demonic weapon came at her.

"No! Dizzy!"

The slash came and...missed. It flew right past her and was impaled into the ground. Testament bent low, breathing heavily and sweat streaking his face. Dizzy bent down as well and patted his shoulder.

"My...little...one."

Dizzy smiled and Testament slowly looked up at her.

"Dizzy...I'm...sorry."

Dizzy simply held her smile and hugged her guardian. Ky merely watched in amazement, but wasn't surprised. 'It's her gift.' he thought.

However, the moment ended abruptly as a huge explosion engulfs all of them. Testament takes the brunt of the impact and his back is scorched. Ky is thrown back further and Dizzy merely flips in the air.

"Ky! Testament!"

Her reddish eyes look back at Vengeance with new anger as his clawed hand sizzles from the attack. Vengeance stares her down.

"You are a gear as well. Yet you would dare fight me?!"

Dizzy made no reply and Vengeance growled, "Fine them. Seal your fate with death!"

Vengeance fired another fire bomb, but Dizzy merely slapped it away. Vengeance then swooped at with unearthly speed, but Dizzy countered the claw attack with the same speed. Dizzy then went on the offensive and shot her arm out. Immediately, the black wing folded around in and slashed down as a sword. Vengeance however was not easily bested and struck at the blade with one of his own. The two blades clashed against each other and remained.

Vengeance gloated, "What's the matter? You can't be this weak."

Her reply was another strike, this time with the other arm. Undine appeared and dashed her hands toward the ground. Vengeance was caught smack in the face by a shard of ice and flew up into the air. Dizzy immediately followed him skyward and attacked relentlessly, finishing it with a Necro claw and sending Vengeance plummeting to the ground. But before he could hit it, he stopped in mid-air, upside-down.

"Is that all? For a Commander-Gear, you're pretty pathetic."

Vengeance whirled around in a flash and swung his arm out. A white beam of light emitted out and came straight at Dizzy. Undine came out to block the attack, but the force still knocked Dizzy back against the ground.

"Is this the extent of your power?"

Swiftly, Dizzy's black wing unraveled and Necro appeared and threw a spinning blade of lightning. Vengeance however, slapped it aside and charged. Dizzy backed away slightly and in a flash of energy, fired the Imperial Wave at him. Vengeance was surprised by this attack, but he managed to jump over it and keep coming. Dizzy blinked in surprise as Vengeance rammed into her and shoved her far back. Dizzy arose, a little slowly though.

"Fun's over, little girl."

Vengeance clenched his fists and the surrounding area around him went dark. A red flare came out from around him and he was glowing red. Sol saw this and noted.

'He's going for a Shun Satsu technique.'

Ky recognized it too and he screamed, "Dizzy, look out!"

Dizzy turned just as Vengeance shimmered with powerful energy. In an instant, he swooped up to Dizzy, grabbed her by the neck and went flying upward. Sol glared. 'It's the same as Justice. Which means...'

Ky must have been thinking along the same lines because he and Sol leaped up into the air together, energies swirling around. Meanwhile high in the sky, Vengeance had completed his ascent, still holding the shocked and choking Dizzy. His arms began to blaze with deadly energy.

"What a waste."

He wasn't aware however, of the two energies then was coming right at him in astonishing speed.

"Dragon Install! Grand Viper!!!!!!"

"Ride The Lightning!!!!!!"

The two energies smashed into Vengeance and exploded, causing him to drop his victim and plummet back to the Earth. All four bodies hit the ground, Ky and Sol didn't fall as hard and were able to rise. Ky went to check on Dizzy and saw her unconscious, but still alive. Unfortunately, so was Vengeance and he was really ticked off.

"Infidels. You are all dead!"

Ky faced him once again and Sol did likewise. Ky took a brief look at Sol. 'I never thought I would be teamed up with him again. But there isn't any other choice.' Sol noticed his glance.

"Don't even think about getting the wrong idea."

Ky looked back, as the lightning around his Thunderseal sword crackled to life, "Don't worry. The thought is far from my mind."

Sol looked at Vengeance, his own Fireseal brimming with flames. "Let's get this on."

Vengeance merely beckoned the two warriors and they charged, lightning and fire as one.
