Chapter 8- Heat Vs.Cold

Mini Bert and Cloud stood back to back readdying themsleves for an attack from the floating monsters, a few vulmers charged forward, Mini Bert caught them with a slash from his agito, Cloud swung his mighty chainsawd ctaching a few govulmers in the head. "Wow, this is useless." Cloud said chopping down a few melqueeks, "You're right, Dinensi must be using these things as puppets, but they're already dead, we aren't doing anything." Mini Bert said as he cut the body of a nano dragon in half, Cloud ran up to a couple of crimson assasins, he was about to swing, but one got a shot at him and froze him, Mini Bert chopped another nano dragon in half, and turned to see Cloud about to be hit by the crimson assasins blades, Mini Bert had no time to lose, he knew they were to far away, he concentrated on the agito, it let off the eerie mist, and with a flash of light turned into the Vengeance Blade, he thurst it into the ground, a shockwve went towards every remaining floating body, they all fell to the ground along with several strings, Cloud unfroze, "Wow, quick thinking." Cloud said smiling.

"You bastard, those were my last control strings." The voice said. "Show yourself, you have nowhere to go!" Mini Bert yelled at the room, "Tsk Tsk Mini Bert, yelling at rooms are we?" The voice mocked Mini Bert, "We know it's you Dinensi, just come out and fight us." Cloud said, readying his chainsawd. "Well why not. Brace yourselves." Dinensi said, a burst of flames came through the floor in a corner of the room, as it cleared a HUmar with dark red hair braided back, and had a dark red suit, but he was floating. "Alright, are you happy? You can fight me now...for the short time you'll live.." Dinensi said as he brought his hand up, a small rock handle floated from his back up into his hand, he held it in front of him, a burst of flames came out of it, the saber was nothing but fire, although it appeared to be solid.

Dinensi charged forward, swinging his flaming saber at Cloud, Cloud jumped back, Dinensi kept coming at him, he brought his chainsawd up to block, the two blades met, then Mini Bert ran at him, he swung the Vengeance Blade at Dinensi, Dinensi brought the burning saber to block it, Cloud chopped at Dinensi, Dinensi jumped to the side, dodging both Mini Bert's and Cloud's attacks, he looked at them and said "Foie Wall!" As he said that, a wall of fire came up through the ground heading towards them, Cloud moved, Mini Bert didn't move, he chopped at the foie wall with the Vengeance Blade, the foie wall fell, but Dinensi was right there, he charged at Mini Bert and swung the burning saber, sending Mini Bert back to the wall and tearing a piece of his armour, which began to burn him. Mini Bert couldn't get up, the heat from the wall had knocked him out, it was up to Cloud.

Dinensi turned to Cloud, Cloud readied his chainsawd. Dinensi looked at Cloud for a second, then charged, Dinensi swung the burning saber at Cloud with very precise slashes, which would have hit any normal hunter, but Cloud was very experienced with a sword and he managed to block Dinensi's attack. Cloud pushed Dinensi back, he swung his chainsawd cutting Dinensi's chest, but Dinensi was still fighting, he continued his saber assault, and just as Cloud saw another opening to attack, he swung, but Dinensi jumped and dodged the attack, Dinensi fell down in front of Cloud, and grabbed him with both hands, one to each shoulder, steam began to run off of Clouds shoulders, he let out a loud cry of pain and fell to the ground. "You pathetic swordsman, you don't stand a chance against the sage of fire." Dinensi said, he brought the burning saber above Clouds body, ready to strike. "Goodbye." Before Dinensi could finish bringing his sword down on Cloud, a blast of ice caught him, letting off steam, Dinensi yelled in pain.

Kinami stood in the doorway, a glowing blue bubble around him, "Kinami? What? Get out of here! You'll die!" Cloud yelled, but Kinami didn't listen, he brought out the belaria saber, and rushed at Dinensi. Dinensi and Kinami matched eachother move for move, never landing a blow, but the blue bubble around Kinami was getting smaller, "Don't worry Kinami, I'll be there in a minute." Cloud said as he got up, he reached for his chainsawd, but his arms were in to much pain to weild it, Kinami looked at Cloud, "Stay away! I'll take care of him!" Kinami yelled, as he took a shot at Dinensi, Dinensi dodged it, "That's what you think!" Dinensi yelled as he charged froward, catching a blow on Kinami, the bubble was now a one inch layer around Kinami's body, Kinami swung at Dinensi, and Dinensi slashed at Kinami, their blades met, there was a blinding light, then it cleared. Dinensi was still standing, but Kinami layed on the ground without the blue barrier around him. "Well, good opponent, to bad he couldn't take the heat." Dinensi said as he swung the burning saber, getting ready to attack, "No Kinami!" Cloud yelled as he ran at Dinensi, knocking him over.

"You worthless worm." Dinensi said as he brought the burning saber in position to stab through Cloud's head. Cloud froze in fear looking at the burning blade inches from his face, then he watched it retract, and fall to the ground, Cloud was suprised, but when he cleared his mind of the fear that was blocking his vision, he saw Mini Bert, stiil in an after slash pose, standing over Dinensi cut in half body.

"Quick, we have to get Kinami back to pioneer 2" Mini Bert said as he put away the Vengeance Blade, and ran to Kinami, picking him up, and casting ryuker.
