Thank you, Beastfire! And Ivy, just as long as you know, okay! I hope that you enjoy this chapter!
Chapter 7- Last Stand
"Let's go," said Morgue. Ultra Saga raised an arm and lashed out at the Super Robot. Morgue jumped over to the spider-like robot and Frus followed suit. They found an exhaust valve and entered.
"Lazatron Fury!" yelled Chiro. The Super Robot fired a massive blast from its chest. Saga stepped back, but seemed undamaged. He struck out again, charging his front hands with energy. The Super Robot shook, awakening Ivy.
"Huh…huh, what? Wait, Frus! Frus, why!" Ivy was touched that Frus had cared so much about protecting her, but enraged that he had left her behind. However, she knew that if she went after him and Morgue, there was a chance that she would mess up their plan. She got up, rubbed the back of her head, and went back to the outside of the Super Robot. She knew that the best thing for the situation was to help blast Sage, so she threw everything she had at him. Fire, water, more fire, more water, and whatever random stuff she could lift with her telekinesis flew at Saga. The Super Robot fired another Lazatron Fury, and this one seemed to do a lot more damage. Saga began firing mouth blasts.
Back with Frus and Morgue, they were having trouble breathing; the fumes in the giant monster robot's vents were toxic, and even synchronizing their breathing with pauses didn't work that well. It was incredibly hot, as well, but they continued moving. Eventually, they reached Saga's energy core. It was very solid, but Morgue seemed to have a plan. He asked Frus for the sword. The large man chanted some archaic spell, and light shone from Gaia and Saga's core. It spread out in all directions, ripping through Saga's body. It grew brighter, and burned Frus' flesh. It broke from Saga's body and began to cover the nearby area. The monkeys and Chiro, inside the Super Robot, were safe. However, Ivy wasn't inside.
The light cleared, and Saga, in a third form, one like that of an organic being, floated near the ground. Across from him was another new being. It stood six feet, and had gray fur, claws, and a tail. It was Frus and Morgue, fused together! Floating high above the ground between them was Ivy, in some sort of stasis. In the combination being's mind, Frus and Morgue were having an argument.
'You said that Ivy would be safe if I put her inside!' said Frus.
'I said no such thing. And even so, she couldn't have been inside during the flash of light. You didn't hit her hard enough. Apparently, love kept you from doing what needed to be done. If you want to save her, we have to win this fight!' said Morgue.
'Then let's do this!' said Frus. The combined form drew twin swords, one glowing white light and the other radiating shadows. Saga formed a scythe out of his energy and ran at Moru (I have to call him something, right?). Moru countered by blocking with the sword of light and attacking with the sword of shadows. Saga slashed him across the chest, bt Moru kicked him so that he flew back wards. Then Moru jumped at him, only to be blasted back by Saga. Saga unsheathed his claws and rushed at Moru. Moru blocked with both swords, holding back Saga attack. Then he spun, tail whipping Saga. Saga flew back once more. Moru crossed his swords , then swiped them both forwards. A silver-gray x flew towards Saga. The monster caught it, but it kept pushing it back. Then, it detonated, defeating Saga.
Everything seemed to fade from existence, and when it returned, Frus and Morgue were separate again. Ivy floated down towards the ground, and Frus caught her. Saga, still in his new form, fled. It was as if he simply disappeared into the shadows.
Morgue began preparing himself to leave, when Frus, still carrying Ivy, walked over to him.
"So, you're leaving," said Frus.
"There's no one here that I need to kill," said Morgue.
"I guess you wouldn't consider joining us, huh?" asked Frus.
"Ha ha ha, no, I'm going to go back to wandering. I like it; it suits me," answered Morgue.
Frus had one last question. "Who are you, really?"
Morgue laughed again. "Just think of me as the angel of death. Neither good nor evil, but out there," he said. He then took a new amulet from his coat. Frus didn't get a good look at it, but it was sure different. Morgue whispered something, and his body began to glow. Then, he jumped, flying off to endless space.
Then, Ivy woke up.
(I'm pretty sure this counts as a cliffhanger.)
Uhh...can anyone give me some ideas for the next chapter? He he he...
