Chapter 22- Spirit's Crushed

Hyozanryu layed on the ground, immobile, while Mini Bert pulled the arrow from his arm, and picked up his Vengeance Blade, and then fell down again.

"You shouldn't try to wield the sword, you'll hurt yourself.." Grace said kneeling beside Mini Bert, "But, Justiceon is still around somewhere, and I'm the only one who can take him." Mini Bert said.

"Thats not true." Cloud said, brandishing his chain sawd, "Yeah, we're all here." Logan said, "And I have the Vengeance Staff to kill him." Dale smiled.

Mini Bert looked at the ground, he didnt have to say anything, they knew he didnt have a say in it.

"I'll stay here, I'll help with ur wounds, i ran out of Difluids in the ruins..." Grace said as she knelt beside him, and took out a small kit, including gauze, and some monomates, she used the monomates on the wounds, and bound them with the gauze.

"There. But don't pick up your sword or the monomates wont take effect." Grace ordered, Mini Bert nodded.

Everyone else ran to the other side of the room, Giga in the front of them, they came to a large door.

"He must be behind here." Giga said pushing open the door.

They walked into another large room, but this one...this one was covered in ancient carvings and pictures, depicting Rannu and the sages, but...something wasn't the same.

"I know something about the pictures aren't right...." Logan trailed off.

"I know! Look! The sages are fighting Rannu, and, they aren't the same sages." Dale pointed out.

"Very perciptive little one." A voice said from the shadows, they all turned to where the voice was coming from.

"Are you Justiceon?" Logan asked, readying his Demolition Comet, "Aye, he I be. But that does ye no good, ye shall still fall." Justiceon emerged from the shadows, he was wearing a brown cloak, wrapped in long silver chains.

"Those are the chains that killed Adameon!" Duraku yelled, "Aye. They also be thine killer." Justiceon said as he rose his hand and the chians shot at Duraku, Duraku blocked it with his Asuka's, but knocked over from the impact.

"Wow, it's like taking a bull head on.." Duraku said pulling himself together.

"Ye are weak fighters. Thee shall perish at mine hands." Justiceon spoke as he rose his hand again, the chains pointed ends lined with his finger tips, and shot forwards.

Giga and Logan jumped out of the way, but Justiceon rose the other hand and shot five more chains, which rapped around Logan and Giga.

"Now thine spirit belongs to me." Justiceon said as one of the chains lit up and stabbed Logan "Ayugh!.." Logan cried wimpily, then fell to the floor limply.

A shot from Giga's justy snapped at Justiceon's hand, forceing the chains back, "I'm an android, I have no spirit." Giga said as he took aim and fired again, Justiceon's chains formed a buuble around him, and the shots ricoheted off.

"Thines weak weapon is no match for my Spirit Chain." Justiceon said

"Then try this!" Dale yelled as he thrust the Vengance Staff forward, letting forth the Vengeance spike, which tore a hole in the chain bubble.

The bubble deformed and everyone charged forward, weilding their weapons ready.

"Ye all be fools." Justiceon said as he shot chains along the floor, catching everyone by the feet. "Ye should have learned from yer freind o'er there, I have power over thine very essence." Justiceon said as he struck everyone of them and stole their spirits, makeing them limp.

"Now ye, i forgot about ye. I shall destroy ye the old way." Justiceon mocked as he rose his hand.

"You won't do anything!" Mini Bert yelled as he lunged at Justiceon, three chains moved to block the assault, and were cut clear off, and a piece of Justiceons back.

"Ye shall perish with thine friends." Justiceon said as he clecnhed his fists, the chains wrapped around his fists and came to one large point.

Justiceon lunged at Mini Bert, Mini Bert jumped back to dodge and followed through with a forward assault, Justiceon did the same.

"YE be a good swordsman." Justiceon said playfully, "And you are a fair opponent." Mini Bert added.

They match each other move for move in every swing, parry, block and lunge. Until Mini Bert came up with something.

Justiceon lunged forward, Mini Bert jumped back to dodge, thinking that Mini Bert was going to junge at him, Justiceon jumped backward, Mini Bert leaped to the side, and ran across quickly catching Justiceon in the side and knocking him to the floor.

Mini Bert hovered over Justiceon and drew the Vengeance Blade back to stab him through his head.

"Come now, thats no way to.." Justiceon said as he removed his hood,

"Treat your creator."
