Chapter 43
"DAIS, ANUBIS, I REQUIRE YOUR PRESENCE," Talpa's voice boomed throughout the Dynasty castle.
The two Warlords teleported to the throne room, 'I didn't really like the fact that Melissa and I were interrupted,' Dais thought, 'but Master Talpa wants to see us. I wonder what's troubling him?'
"You wanted to see us Master?" Anubis asked as he bowed before his lord.
"Yes," Talpa replied, "look at what is outside our gates."
Dais and Anubis turned around to look at the monitor. On the top of the building closest to the castle, the two Warlords saw Kento of Hardrock and Ryo of the Wildfire. Below them, Dais and Anubis saw Sarah and Brian.
Dais' right hand balled into a fist, 'that hypocritical child,' he silently raged, 'why can't Torrent's partner just die?'
"Anubis," Talpa began, "I want you to take care of Hardrock and Wildfire."
"Hai," Anubis responded as he teleported away.
Talpa then turned his attention toward Dais, "does something trouble you?" The Lord of the Nether Realm asked.
"Master," Dais bowed, "I wish to rid myself of the one they called Brian."
"How do you intend to do that?" Talpa asked.
Dais smiled, "all I ask is a nether spirit created out of his negative emotions."
Kento and Ryo leaped from rooftop to rooftop. "Now we can…" Ryo replied, until he saw five "things" situated on top of the nearest office building. "What are those things?"
"They look like floating bags of wind," Kento smiled.
"You mean my master's nether spirits," a deep voice laughed.
Kento and Ryo whirled around to find Anubis standing behind of them, "I guess you like my master's work of art."
"They're just floating bags of wind," Ryo smirked.
"Oh really," Anubis smirked, "then why don't we find out," he replied as the spirits began to change shape.
Brian and Sarah reached the castle gates, "It looks like we made it," Brian panted.
"Yes," an illusive voice laughed, "you made it just in time to die."
Brian and Sarah looked up. When they did, they found Dais hanging upside down on a spider web. 'I wonder how long he can do that without getting a nosebleed?' Sarah thought.
"You!" Brian glared, "When I get my hands on you…"
"Then what?" Dais laughed, "You can't kill me."
"You want to make a bet on that?" Brian replied.
"You won't," Dais laughed again. "You can't face me without making the Dynasty stronger."
Brian glared at his enemy, "Let me show you what I mean," Dais smiled.
Beside the Warlord, a spirit appeared. The presence of the spectral image sent a cold chill down Brian's spine.
Dais laughed at Brian's fear, "This is your nether spirit," he explained, "He was fashioned by your negative emotions and hatred towards me."
Brian growled in anger.
"But the best part," Dais smirked, "Is that this nether spirit can drain you of your emotions. You will still be alive, but without your emotions, what is there left to live for?"
"You son-of-a-bitch," Sarah growled, "You kidnap our friends and then threaten to ruin our personal lives."
"Don't say anything," Brian replied, cutting Sarah off, "he's not going to get away with this."
"But I already have," Dais laughed as the nether spirit shot out a black beam of light.
