Chapter 11
The Shadows
"Make peace with your gods, your about to meet them Haruki."
This new arrival had purple hair spiked up and evil looking green eyes. He was wearing something like a robe.
"You don't scare me" lied Haruki.
"Well I can fix that."
"Whats your problem with me? I haven't done anything to you!"
"You haven't done anything yet, but you might have. We can't let you interfere with our plans. We must go undetected to Yusuke as well."
"Plans?"
Half a second later Kage charged at him. He threw a punch and haruki noted that he had vicious nails. Haruki sidestepped and to his great surprise dodged the attack. The brick wall behind him was smashed by the attack.
"Holy..."
Kage suddenly threw a flurry of punches. Haruki saw them as if they were in slow motion. He turned slightly every time a punch came at him, dodging them all.
Or at least he thought he dodged them all. A second later his chest exploded with pain and he fell to his knees.
"With some training you could have been a worthy opponent. Its a shame you have to die here."
Kage's shadow vanished suddenly. A glowing ball of purple gathered in his hand.
"This will fry you alive, human! Kage Kyohaku! "
Kage Kyohaku: (Shadow Star) Shadow demons are born with the power to manipulate shadows. With this technique the user gathers their own shadow into a powerful attack.
The purple light shot at Haruki at high speed. Dodging was useless because of how narrow the alley was.
I still have the spirit gun... Haruki suddenly remembered. His only hope was that the two blasts would richochet. But could he actually do it again?
Guess I'll find out . Haruki put his hands together and pointed his index fingers at Kage. He focused all of his reiki into the fingers and pulled the trigger as the kage kyohaku was feet away from him.
It worked. The spirit gun and kage kyohaku collided with a bang. The blasts shot away in different directions down the alley, finally burning out and fading.
Kage looked surprised.
"Perhaps you aren't as weak as I thought. But I doubt you can do that again. You look like your all out of energy. As for me-"
Kage gathered his shadow back into his hand in the shape of a purple ball.
"-I have infinite ammo."
Haruki heard someone running down the alley as Kage prepared his attack. Haruki closed his eyes and waited for the pain.
"Kage Kyohaku!"
The blast was suddenly knocked away with a swish sound. Haruki opened his eyes and saw Hisano standing there with her sword in hand.
Spirit Sword: A sword formed by reiki. It is powerful but constantly drains the user's reiki and requires concentration to maintain.
