Chapter 3: Battle Continued
Shadow drew his Shadow Sword and began running towards Zero, ready for an attack. Zero realized he had to beat him fast if he wanted more information from him. He too got his Saber ready for an attack. Zero threw the first swing, but only ripped Shadow's long dark blue scarf. "Fine clothes like this aren't easy to come across, Zero. You shall pay for it, painfully," said Shadow as he began shooting Shurikens at Zero. Zero tried his best to dodge them but was still hit several times. Zero striked at Shadow, and slashed him through his chest.
"Damnit! Ah!" yelled Shadow. At that time Shadow too striked at Zero, damaging him through the hip. Zero leapt backwards in agony, but Shadow ran to him with his sword ready. Zero kept his Saber in front of him, ready to defend, but Shadow wasn't aiming for him, he was aiming for his Saber! With a good, strong, clean slash Shadow broke Zero's Saber by the handle, narrowly missing his fingers. Once again in agony, Zero looked around the room for help in his situation. The only thing he found was the life-less body of Sigma, still hanging on the ceiling. At the sight of this, Zero was beginning to think, "What if I end up like him?"
"Hahaha! What's wrong Zero? Can't find any more weapons in your inventory? Hahaha!" laughed Shadow, yet again. "A weapon!" thought Zero. He looked straight up to Sigma's location. "He must have a new weapon!" Right before Shadow was going to cut his head off, Zero leapt up onto the walls and jumped his way up. "I wonder how we can move like that in mid-air," thought Shadow, "Hmph, better follow him." When Zero got close enough to Sigma's body from the wall, he dash-jumped up to his location and hung on to the rope Sigma was hung by. It almost looked like Sigma was looking straight at him, with pale and terrified eyes. Zero searched his body for weapons and found an arrow shaped Saber that somehow reminded Zero of his regular Saber, and he found a small Buster gun. He wondered how Sigma thought he could protect himself with weapons like these, but his thoughts were interrupted by Shadow coming straight up at him. Right before Shadow could attack him, Zero slashed him with the new Saber. Shadow fell straight to the ground, hard. Zero let go of the rope and fell right after Shadow, shooting the new Buster gun straight down towards him. A bunch of small clouds of dust lifted around Shadow from the gunshots. When Zero landed, all that he could think was: "Is he alive?" As Zero waited for the dust to clear out, he was able to make out what seemed like a body. It was Shadow's, it wasn't moving, and it appeared dead. "Damnit!!" cried Zero. "Did I forget to mention I was a Ninja/Assassin Reploid?" "What?!?!" said the shocked Zero. (SLASH) "Aaaah!" cried Zero. Zero collapsed to the ground. "Fool. Now, for your skills, GET ABILITY PROGR.!" said Shadow, interrupted by a large amount of shots at the door. "Zero!" cried X and Axl as they ran into the room. Shadow just stood there, furious on how close he almost accomplished his objective. "I can't believe this! I'll come back, and I'll send each and every one of you down to hell!" he yelled, and teleported away. "Damn! Who was that guy!" asked Axl. "No time, Zero still has a little bit of life left. I'm teleporting him outta here." said X, as he teleported out with Zero, Axl noticed something on the ground. "??? Huh?" thought Axl, "Zero's Saber! But it's in pieces, hmm, weird. That guy must've been really strong to take out Zero and break his Saber! Crap."
