Chapter 10

Champions

"In this corner is the reigning champ of boxing so far, weighing 80lbs of pure iron and muscle, Maxwell Shoen!" said an announcer in a black and white stripped shirt and black pants. The man then points to the other corner and says, "In this corner is the newcomer who also weighs 80lbs, but in only skin and bones, and I say that literally, Sheen Legar!"

The man walks off the ring and the two kids stand at one another and the Maxwell kid, wearing black and red shorts, a red bandana, green hair, and green shoes on, says to Sheen, who is wearing blue shorts, blue shoes, has brown hair and looks scrawny as if he were just skin and bones, "Even though I might not look it, I am indeed stronger than any momodo on this forsaken planet, and you will be my eighth victim..."

As the bell rings, someone in the stands yells out, "Shogun Punch!" Maxwell's eyes turn green, and begins to punch the daylights out of Sheen. After several hits to the head, Sheen stops moving, then falls straight to the ground. Then Sheen's partner drops his book and runs away. Maxwell picks up the book, throws it into the air, and let the ceiling fan destroy the book. As soon as the book was torn up to oblivion, Sheen disappeared without a trace.

The crown chanted his name and gave their hoorays to Maxwell in his victory. Maxwell silently says, "What a waste of a good momodo selection... Well, as long as I keep my subjects here, I can prove that I will become the most powerful of all the past Momodo Kings!"

At the hotel, Kyle picks up his sword again, and stares at the engravement on the blade again. Kyle then gets up from his chair and opens a window, he then sees Oma on his window opening. Kyle stares with a blank face at Oma and says, "Why are you here, don't you have other people to see?"

Oma shakes his head, then points at Kyle's sword and replies, "I see that you still have my old sword." Kyle's eyes widen, then responds with, "I found this sword at my parents' death, it's not yours!"

"It is mine, I gave it to you back then, so I would remember who Magi was to have as his partner."

"Wait, I found Magi all alone and was waiting for his 'friend'."

"Remember when I said that he forgot me during his transport here, hm?"

Kyle stares into nothingness for a few moments when he replied, "Oh yeah, now I remember..."

Oma jumps inside the hotel room and lands himself into a chair and says, "So, how's Magi, how many spells does he have?"

Kyle, still confused, replies with, "Um, about eight, I think..."

"Wow, I didn't expect him to get that many in such a short time."

"What do you mean?"

" You see, I taught Magi the Macare spell, based on that spell is what Magi had to gain the rest of his spells with, and it seems that he had gained all of the basic spells that an Elemental Master is to have, except that he still needs Zacare, of course..."

"Well, anyway, why are you here?" Kyle finally sits down, with his sword. Oma sighs and replies with, "There's a powerful momodo that I need you to take care of, he's Maxwell, a very famous boxer in Japan."

"Maxwell, I know him, he's also famous in America, are you sure that he's a momodo?" "Very sure."

Kyle leans back and says, "Alright, but I'm going to need help." Oma smirks, then finally says, at the same time standing up, "How about that Megumi girl and the momodo Tia, they seem willing to help their friends out." As that is said, Oma jumps out the window, and disappears.

Kyle, still sitting thinks to himself, "Kyo and Zatch are busy, but how do I contact a pop star?" Kyle picks up the newspaper ad discovers an article that the pop star Megumi is in a Star Hotel about ten blocks away. But Kyle just thought of something, "What if they don't want to help and what if the security guards find me?"

"Magi!" Kyle yelled out to get Magi's attention.

"What! I'm sleeping!" replied Magi in the other room.

"We're going on a field trip!"

Quickly, Magi appears out of nowhere in a camper's suit and gear. "I'm ready!"

"No you ain't!"

At the Star Hotel, Kyle and Magi stand at the lobby, awaiting the response of the "famous" Megumi... Magi, huffing and puffing because he found out that he was deceived by Kyle, leans on a wall. Kyle, who is now bored beyond belief and is ready to leave to find Maxwell, also leans on the wall, next to Magi.

Right before Kyle could say that they were going to leave, because they were standing for almost forty minutes, Megumi shows up, without Tia. "What is it guys, it sounded urgent!" Kyle sucks his teeth, truly annoyed, and said, "well, we were going to ask for help, but it included Tia... so, where is she?" "She is still sleeping, trust me, she needed it!" Kyle sighs, then stands up normally and replied, "Well, then, with your professional advice, we will go and leave you alone, come on Magi."

As Magi and Kyle were just to leave the hotel completely, Tia walked down the stairs, rubbing her eyes and said, "(yawn) what's going on?" Tia brought the spell book and walked up to Megumi. Kyle sighed again, then explained the situation.

Next thing they knew, Magi and Kyle were in the back seat of a limo to the Maxwell fight arena with Megumi and Tia. "How did you get a limo at this time and day?" Tia replied with a chuckle, "We have our ways!" "I'm sure you do..." said Kyle to himself.

As they pulled up to the arena, Megumi wore black glasses and a hat, so did Tia. Kyle raised an eyerow and said, "Why is God's name are you wearing those?" "So if any of our fans see us here, they won't recognize us!" Magi quickly puts on a shirt that says, "I'm with Megumi!"

Kyle shakes his head and pulls off the shirt Magi had on, showing Magi's gray shirt with blue dragons on it. "Magi, since when did you get that shirt?" "I got it at the clothing store that we passed on the way here!" "Magi, we didn't stop the limo..." "I know, I jumped out of the car when I saw the shirt, then I bought it and landed back inside, you were looking out the window that time." Both Megumi and Tia nods their heads and said in unison, "Yep, saw him do it, too!" "You know, I'm beginning to hate you guys!"

As both groups head into the audience, Maxwell was in the ring, with his manager, assumed to be his partner. "Who dares to fight he from the audience?" Tia quickly stands up and yells, "I am!" The crowd gasps in the little girl who is both brave and stupid at the same time. "Tia, are you trying to get killed!" asked Kyle.

Tia jumps into the ring, and Megumi holding her spell book, outside of the ring. The bell rings as the announcer man his introduction for the two momodo fighters.

Tia runs up to Maxwell and begins to throw a punch when Maxwell's manager yelled out, "Shogun Punch!" Maxwell unleashes a barrage of punches into Tia's face, then she falls to the ground. "1...2...3...4...5..." Tia stands, battle damaged, when Megumi yelled out a spell and Tia unleashed a beam red light and heads for Maxwell. Maxwell's manager yells out, "Carrier Block!" Maxwell puts both of his arms together, and the red beam of light from Tia disappeared before the attack could hit Maxwell's manager yells out, "Lightning Fury!" Maxwell's hands become electrically charged, then Megumi yells out a spell, then a pink light barrier shields Tia from the many electrical punches that Maxwell unleashed onto Tia's barrier. Maxwell stops his attack when Maxwell's manager yelled out, "Shogun Fist of Fury!" Maxwell firmly punches the barrier, and completely shatters it, and Maxwell unleashes multiple punches to Tia's face, completely knocking her out.

"Now, miss, give me your book and this event will all be just a dream..." Megumi clings to her book as Tia is still down for the count. "Macare!" A large orb of elements hit Maxwell in the back of his head and is sent flying into the air and falls onto his face. Maxwell stands up. "Damn you... who the hell are you!" Kyle and Magi jump out of the audience and land inside the ring. "We're your worst nightmare!"

Magi's eyes glowed with much more power than ever before. An aura seemed to engulf Magi as he readied for battle. "Shogun Punch!" Maxwell throws a powerful punch at Magi, until Magi grabbed Maxwell's hand during the attack. "What the hell!" Magi began to crush Maxwell's hand, then Maxwell fell to his knees. "Who, what are you!" Magi let's go of Maxwell's hand and a sigh of relief came upon him. Magi simply stated, with his eyes still glowing quite brightly, "I told, I'm your worst nightmare, your inner demon!" Maxwell throws another punch, but Magi dodges it. "Lightning Fury!" Maxwell continues to unleash electrical power punches, but Magi keeps on dodging each throw of the punches. Finally Kyle opens his spell book and yells out, "Aero!" Maxwell is carried into a tornado and is thrown into the air, and hits the ceiling, then falls onto the fall, completely knocking him out.

Magi turns towards Maxwell's former manager. His manager grew fear into his face, and dropped his book, and ran away. Magi picks up the spell book, throws it into the air, and Kyle yelled out, "Macare!" The orb from Magi was thrown again and completely destroys the book. Finally, Maxwell disappears and Tia wakes up. "I never want to go on that roller coasterride ever again..." Then Tia passes out in Megumi's arms.

Kyle, Magi, Tia, and Megumi head to their own hotels as the sun jsut began to set. As Kyle was about to enter his hotel room, his book glowed, and Kyle opened his book to find the newest spell to his collection, Zacare...
