Chapter 6 - The Water of Death and Corruption
Shadow looked to be doomed when suddenly the Half fish monster had been sliced in two by something. Shadow looked up to see a familiar sight. It was the Annemuir, which meant help had arrived. Joz was here.
"What took you so long?" asked Shadow.
"It's not everyday you have to go inside the emeralds. So what's going on anyway", said Joz.
"My frequent use of Chaos energy has created demons inside each of the Emeralds. They exist to balance out the Positive and Negative energy within the emerald", said Shadow.
"Ok, I didn't understand much of that but it seems like they want to fight you, one by one", said Joz, "Just like the Deadly gems wanted to do with me".
"That's the jist of it yeah. So why you? Why not Miles?" asked Shadow.
"Someone has to stay outside and monitor us. I can get out whenever I want but I can't bring you out with me. Miles knows more about this stuff than I do so he stayed behind", said Joz.
"Well thanks for saving my life an'all but don't think I've suddenly forgiven you. These demons each have special abilities…" said Shadow.
"Like that monster's poison. You sure you're going to be OK?" asked Joz.
"I'm fine. But like it or not I may just need your help", said Shadow.
Suddenly a voice came booming down from the sky. It was the half fish monster.
"How did he get here? That was unfair and I demand a rematch", said the monster.
"You speak of unfair? How about me being forced here to fight you without knowing anything about you. You want to kill me", shouted Shadow angrily.
"Leave them be Magenta. It makes no difference how many there are, we will prevail", said another voice.
"But Grey? Come on they cheated!" said the monster.
"Stop whining. There are no rules in these fights. If we win they die, if they win they move on", said the other voice.
"Magenta? Grey? Hey wait a minute how did you survive being sliced in two?" asked Joz confused.
"Ok bat listen well. Firstly we nicknamed ourselves after the colour of the emerald we are born in. Grey is sort of our leader. Secondly neither I nor any of the other demons can die here. We are made out of Chaos Energy from our Emeralds", said Magenta.
"Enough talk. Move use to the next Emerald. I'm guessing that's blue", said Shadow.
"As you wish", said Magenta.
Shadow and Joz warped from the Magenta Emerald into the Blue one. Once again all they could see was a blue mist. They could feel puddles of water under their feet. Suddenly the puddles grew larger and they soon found themselves in a shallow lake. The mist began clearing as the two Shadows moved across the surface of the lake. It began to get Deeper as time progressed and then from under the lake a trident appeared. The rising trident soon revealed their next demon. It looked like the skeleton of a mermaid. It's thick bones were blue instead of white and it didn't look as brittle as a regular skeleton.
"I take it you're blue. Ok let's get this started", said Shadow.
"You have done well Shadow to get this far. Although you now have some help it won't be enough. I am the Dead Mermaid of Corruption. The persuit for power has corrupted many people. This corruption has made people do horrible things to others, even kill. Death is inevitable for all just like how a wave of water inevitably hits the coast of land", said the demon.
"I'll tell you what else is inevitable. Our Victory", said Shadow.
"You don't stand a chance against us Blue", said Joz.
"How dare you use our names for each other! To you I am the Dead Mermaid of Corruption", said Blue.
"No, to us you're a waste of space. We'll call you what we want to call you Demon", said Joz.
"Enough talk. Let's end this now", said Shadow
"Very well", said Blue.
Blue started the fight by summoning a huge wave of water that crashed into Joz and Shadow. The Force pulled them underwater where Blue quickly smashed into Shadow. Blue easily swam through the water with his bone fin. Joz then decided to take on the demon and used the jet wing to blast him through the water. Joz prepared to slice the demon in two with the Annemuir. The Water resistance made it tough but he managed to slice through it. Blue however countered Joz's attacks by trapping the Annemuir between the fork end of his trident. Shadow got up and swam to the surface. Joz soon followed. There was one thing both of them suddenly realised. Unlike the demon, they needed air.
