The Leviathan
The Leviathan opened its mouth and issued a haze of green fumes. "Don't breath it in!" Sasha told everyone, covering her nose and mouth with her shirt. After the smoke vanished, Alanna held her hand out. She glowed red all over, her hand getting brighter.
"Cycle beam!" The monster was hit with a white hot beam and roared in pain. Sasha followed up with Ice horn.
The Leviathan roared and shot out some prickly spikes from its spire-like fins. Candace tried to counter with spire, but when she raised her hand, one of the spikes flew right threw. Candace grabbed her wrist and sank to her knees in pain.
"Candace!" Aiden flew over to her. "You okay?"
Candace raised her head. Tears were streaming down her face, but she wasn't crying. She held up her hand, the spear– like peice of fin in visible from the front and back of her her hand, blood running down her hand and arm and dripping on her pants. "I'm... fine," she said, shakily. "I just need to... get this spike out of my hand..."
Aiden grimaced, almost feeling her pain by seeing that spike through her hand and bleeding. "Ouch..." he said. "How are you gonna get that out?"
"I'll– I'll find a way. You need to help Sasha and the others." Candace started to look at her hand. Aiden looked at her for a few moments, then went back to the fight.
"This thing looks like a big lizard!" Taryn said. He closed his eyes and cast storm ray. The currents ran through the water, giving it the power of destruct ray as the Leviathan was shocked from under and over him. "We should fight around water more often."
"I don't think that would work out with me," Alanna said, as a beam of whit hot fire flew from her glowing hand to the Leviathan.
"Or me. I can't even cast volcano out here!" Aiden complained. He instead conjured balls of fire from all around and sent them whamming into the Leviathan. It roared in pain and opened its mouth. Nothing came out. Everyone stopped and looked at it.
"What is it doing?" Roscoe asked.
"I don't– " Sasha started, but stopped and gasped when they all started to glow.
"What is this?" Candace asked from a little ways away.
Sasha looked around. "Do you hear that?" she asked. She heard something from beneath them.
Alanna nodded. "What is that?"
Roscoe looked deep in thought. "Beneath us... It sounds like... Oh, no..."
"I don't like those words together," Aiden told him. "What is it?"
"He's gonna try and sink the ship!" Roscoe exclaimed.
"What?"
Candace closed her eyes and glowed a yellowish color. The spike trembled a little. Candace winced but kept her mind clear, exept for getting the spike out of her hand. She opened her eyes and looked at it. Sasha turned around to check on her quickly. She was shocked at what she saw. The spike had liquified and the liquid fell to the ground. Then she glowed a goldish color and the wound closed up.
She got up. "He gonna sink the ship? Well why is everyone just standing here? Atack him!" She held her hand out and did her best to cast mother gaia(lots of water, remember). The water around the Leviathan started to bubble. A yellow light glowed underneath him. The water bubbled harder and then splashed as Leviathan was enveloped in hot golden light and earth. She kept it going. Sasha caught on. "Everyone, together!"
Everyone sent out waves of psynergy and djinn. Sasha cast ice horn, Alanna cycle beam, Taryn Tornado, Roscoe Glacier, Kevin Ragnarok, and Aiden flare storm.
"I've got four djinn in standby," Candace said. Everyone else did too. Candace went first.
She raised her hands in the air. Four djinni appeared around her.
"Ready when you are," Geode assured. She nodded at him. She glowed a bright yellow and called, "With the might of the apocalypse, Judgement, I summon thee!"
The four djinn rose into the air, spun around, a little slow at first. Then they speeded up and spun until they materialized into nothing. A great rumble could be heard from far away. They all looked up. Judgement had rose into the air and pointed his staff down at the leviathan. Then he said in a deep voice, "Let the might of the apocalypse be your downfall." He shot a jet of light down at him. It caused an even bigger splash that made the boat rock. The light hit down and nearly blinded everyone.
Aiden thought about something. "We should wait until a little later to summon our stuff on him."
"To bad we can't attack him," Kevin said. "We'd fall into the water."
Sasha raised the trident. A huge trident fell from the sky onto the Leviathan. Sparks issued from it and a puff of smoke rose. The ground shook as it pressed down harder and then there was an explosion.
"That thing should be dead now!" Alanna exclaimed. the Leviathan roared and spitted thick gushes of water on them.
"Gah!" Alanna fumed, soaking wet. "I hate getting wet!"
Aiden got choked on some water and coughed, "Same here." He cast Fireball again.
The beast shot some more spikes from his fins, catching everyone off-guard. Then everyone started glowing again, and he issued more poisonous gas. Sasha got choked and breathed in too much.
"Is everyone all right?"
"Yeah," Kevin replied. "You?" He tried to focus his mind to cast quakesphere.
Sasha coughed. "Not right now." She got ready to cast cure poison, but couldn't. She gasped.
"It blocked our psynergy!" Candace exclaimed. She reached in her pack for some elixers. "My items are gone!"
"Mine too!" Roscoe said shocked.
"But we just had them !" Alanna said.
"I think when we were glowing the first time, he must've stolen it all," Kevin glared at the Leviathan.
Sasha fumbled with the trident again. Everything around her seemed to be spinning. She dropped the trident and fell.
"Sasha?" Roscoe helped her up. "It's the poison, isn't it?"
"Um... Y-yea. I'm fine, though. We need to summon..." Sasha told him.
Candace drew a thunder card and threw it at the beast. It grew and bolts of lightening came out, electricuting the Leviathan. "The mysterious card rocks!" she said.
The Leviathan roared and the water behind him started to rise. It crashed onto the ship. Alanna was slammed into the poll that led to the crows nest.
"Alanna!" Sasha and Taryn ran over.
"Yea, I'm good," she assured them. She sounded weaker, though. "I just hit my head."
She stood up and closed her eyes. Char and three other djinn appeared around her.
"Let's go," Char said. She held her arms in the air. Aiden joined her.
"We summon a meteorite from deep space!" Nothing happened for a while. Then they heard something falling from the sky, and closed their eyes as two big balls of flaming rock dropped down on Leviathan. It roared even louder.
The Leviathan didn't do anything for a little while. It just breathed. Then it picked up its tail and slapped everyone on board.
Roscoe stumbled to his feet. "I summon the god of the north wind, Boreas!"
Boreas appeared frozen far away. The ice blasted off of him and the shards of ice formed a big ice ball that landed on his head. A robotic - like lever started to twist that grinded the ice and shot it out at the monster, freezing him. Then a large arrow blasted it. The leviathan wasn't as hurt by this. Kevin got up and summoned Judgement. He appeared in the air and shot a bright white beam out of the sky, blasting the Leviathan.
Taryn got up and shouted, "I summon Thor, the God of thunder!"
The sky darkened, and grey clouds blocked out all sunlight. A circle with a line and triangle under it appeared in the sky. an arrow shot to the ground, revealing the God, Thor. He shocked the Leviathan with bolts of electricity. It turned into ashes and died in a huge roar.
"...We did it!" Candace said.
"Alright, we kicked sea monster butt!" Alanna cheered.
"That thing was no match for us, anyway,"Taryn bragged.
"We're almost to Izumo," Aidan told everyone.
"Hang in there, Sasha, we're almost to a sanctum." Roscoe turned around, and gasped.
Kevin was on his knees beside an unconscious Sasha, tears running down his face. "She's pale! And unconscious!"
Everyone, but Aiden(he's sailing the ship, now) hurried over.
"Sasha..." Roscoe propped her up and felt her head. "She's burning up!"
"Her hearts not beating right, either..." Alanna said shakily.
They could barely hear her breathe. Kevin ran inside the ship, and came out with a book. He flipped through the pages.
"Why are you looking through a book when your sister is in grave condition?" Taryn asked.
"'The leviathan is a legendary sea monster next to the kraken... It often kills off his enemies by using a power that seals its foe's psynergy even after battle and then poisening them. The leviathan's poison is the deadliest poison of all of them. It can kill a person or thing instantly(99.9 of the time)If you or a friend is poisoned with the leviathan's poison, the best thing to do is to hurry them to a sanctum immediately.'"
"Are we there yet, Aiden?" Kevin asked anxiously.
"Almost!" Aiden answered.
Roscoe noticed the red band on her finger. "I sense power from this ring."
"Yea, dad gave it to her," Kevin said. "Do you think it's keeping her alive?"
"I don't know..." Roscoe felt the boat stop. Aiden came over to help him pick her up.
"Takeru won't like to see Sasha like this..." Taryn said. "Neither will Susa and Kushinada."
They hurried to Izumo.
"Lena, you don't know anything about your history, do you?" Kali said.
"Not really..." Lena answered.
"Well, to make a long story short, light and darkness are not real elements."
"Huh?" Lena was confused.
"Our elements are not the ones that make up alchemy." Kali explained. "Years ago, before alchemy was sealed, there was a great war. There were people that wanted to use alchemy for evil and power, and people that wanted to use it for good. They were all equal in power. So they each used alchemy to create two powerful warriors- Aaron and Adrian. Adrian was created from hate and evil. He had had a unique power we know now today as darkness. Aaron was part angel and good. He also had a unique power, known as light. After the four wise men that represented each element sealed alchemy away, the world, and the new light and dark adepts became peaceful. Light and dark adepts found families. The dark adepts were still evil, though, because it ran in their blood. Many feared them. They killed out of pure bloodlust... and they were heartless. But eventually, the light and dark adepts started to die out because of the seal on alchemy... and everyone eventually forgot about them. But if you say the words 'dark adepts', it still brings a chill down everyone's spines."
"Wow..." Lena said. "Um... Did you used to be evil and heartless?"
"...Yea..."
"What made you join the good?"
Kali was quiet a moment. Then she turned around and finally flashed a smile. "I met you."
Lena was pleased. And shocked. "You smiled!"
There was a noise a ways away from them.
"Stay here," Kali told Lena. She went to see what it was.
Kali headed down the hill. "Who's here?" she asked. Not a sound. She pulled out her scythe. "Show yourself!"
Out of know where, someone jumped out and before Kali could react, she was hit in the back of her head with a club and knocked unconscious...
