Chapter 4
Past the forest that they have ventured, Isaac and his 2 djinn set on the white field that was covered with snow and ice and where the blow of the northern wind is at its strongest. A few miles away were Anthony and his followers. While Saturos and Menardi are arguing over the map…
"I'm telling you Imri is that way!" Saturos shouted
"No!" Menardi replied, "It's that way!"
"Stop it," Anthony barked suddenly, "he's here."
"What are you talking about?"
"Who?" Agatio said
"My brother…"
"Anthony!" Isaac said suddenly
"Who?" Granite questioned with his mouth full
"His older brother," Flint answered, "what's wrong?"
"He's here."
"What do we do?"
"I don't know," Isaac said calmly, "come on."
Isaac and his djinn started packing their stuff and went off. A few moments later, fireballs start to fall from the sky all of a sudden and Isaac managed to dodge all of them and was surrounded by the thick steam. He pulled out his sword with his right hand and a dagger at his left ready to strike the enemy out of any direction. But then he read a familiar chuckle.
"Anthony!" he called out, "I know you're here. Come out now!"
"Hello Isaac," Anthony replied, "its been a long time."
"Where are you?"
He sounds different, Isaac thought, I guess the dark side has complete control over his body. I'm too late.
"Over here," Anthony called from behind, "brother."
Isaac looked behind him and saw Anthony, he has short black hair, wearsa shiny gray armourthatcovers his entire body with a black cape and the same skyblueeyes that Katherine has,with his gang as the mist faded. When he looked at the 4 beings that are around him he was surprised.
"It can't be," Isaac murmured, "I thought…"
"So this is your brother?" Agatio asked
"Pathetic." Krast replied
"Anthony," Saturos questioned, "let me challenge him. He looks tough."
"I don't want to fight you," Isaac shouted suddenly, "Saturos."
"How did you-?"
"Let's just say that I had a dream," Isaac growled, "now get out of my way if you want to live."
"Then you have to go though me first," Saturos grinned, "but I doubt that you will."
"I guess I have no choice."
What is he doing? Isaac is going to get himself killed! I have to stop this! Anthony thought, oh no! My other spirit is fighting back. I better tell Saturos to finish him fast.
"Saturos!" Anthony shouted, "finish him now! We don't have all day."
"Fine." Saturos muttered
"Flint, Granite," Isaac whispered, "get ready."
Saturos took out his sword and attacked him without warning. But Isaac managed to see that and blocked it with his dagger. Isaac then swings his sword but he jumped back. Then Isaac throws the dagger targeted at Saturos head. Saturos knocked it out with his sword and strike Isaac again. Isaac blocked it again. The two swords were locked and were pushed back and forth. Saturos then kneed Isaac in the stomach that caused him to fall down to the ground. But as Saturos was about to finish him, Isaac kicked him between the legs and punched him in the face.
"You brat!" Saturos barked and spat out blood in his mouth
"I knew you were going to do that." Isaac grinned
"I don't believe this," Menardi said, "finish him!"
"Hurry up!"
In the mind of Anthony a battle is erupting. The good Anthony is trying to get out while the bad one is trying to stop him.
"I won't let you hurt my brother!" the good spirit complained
"Ha!" the evil laughed, "you can't hurt me! It isn't your style Mr. Goody two shoes."
"You know it is not nice to call people names. Especially to your relative."
"Shut up!"
The dark spirit knocked him out unconscious.
"Pathetic." The dark spirit growled
"Saturos!" Anthony shouted, "Finish him!"
"Aaahhh!"
Saturos swung his sword to Isaac to push him off then cast fireball. Isaac manages to dodge all, as he gets closer to Saturos. But Saturos cast a Firewall that caused Isaac to stop in his tracks and then Saturos appeared in front of the Firewall and punched him to the air. Saturos then cast Volcano to end his attack. Isaac landed with his feet to the ground with a few burns and bruises.
"Playtime's over," Isaac panted, "get ready to lose."
"You're dead!" Saturos shouted, "Raaahhh!"
Saturos was about to finish him, and then Isaac uses his djinn Flint to cut off Saturos sword in half. Then Saturos cast his strongest fireball, which was blocked by the djinn Granite. It's time! Isaac thought to himself
"Summon Ramese!" Isaac called out.
The mighty spirit caused a lot of damage to Saturos and Isaac used earthquake as a finishing move. Saturos was lying on the ground after that devestating attack.
"Give up?" Isaac panted heavily
"He's good," Krast mumbled, "but not good enough."
"Anthony!" Isaac shouted, "Your bodyguard's down and out! Time for me to…"
"I don't think so!" Saturos called out suddenly
"Saturos!"
"That was a nice move," Saturos grinned, "now it's my turn. Get ready for my signature move. Triple Eruption!"
The attack casts three towers of lava that bind Isaac in one place and the impact cause major damage and his sword melted from the intense heat. He was lying on the ground after that brutal attack with scars and burnsand Saturos was walking toward with his shattered sword.
I can't move, Isaac thought to himself, he got me this time. But I can't give up. I can't. Anthony… if you can… help.
"It ends here kid," Saturos said holding his broken sword, "die."
"Negative Charge!" Anthony called suddenly
The dark psyenergy cast a black orb that went past Saturos head and it exploded in front of him, causing him to stop. Saturos looked at him angrily, But Anthony was looking down to the ground.
"What was that for?" Saturos growled
"Leave him," Anthony muttered, "we have more important things to do."
Krast then looked at Anthony seriously. What's going on? She thought, he sounds different. He's quieter now than usual. I'd better keep an eye on him.
"Alright," Saturos complained, "let's go."
"Anthony," Isaac groaned, "You have to fight it!"
I'll try, Anthony thought to himself as he walked away from his younger brother.
Meanwhile back to the others, they manage to find the village a few days later and sent Sheba to the nearest inn. Katherine was busy healing her, while the others were eating like crazy in the main floor.
"This would have… been so good… if my lips… are not in pain…" Garet said with his mouth full
"Ew!" Jenna whined, "You are not suppose to eat with your mouth full you know!"
"I just only hope that we have enough gold to pay the food," Felix took a bite of his peach, "if only we have meet up more monsters and get more gold…"
"Felix," Garet swallowed, "you seem to know the girl we found on the beach."
"Yeah," Felix replied, "she was in that dream when Anthony cast a spell on me along with Isaac."
"But do you think she is the same Sheba in the dream?"
"Possibly," Felix paused, "I mean you guys were there too."
"Maybe…" Jenna replied, "What does it all mean? Do you think that it is possible that the people you meet in the dream, we have a high chance of meeting them?"
"I just hope it isn't true." Felix looked outside the window, remembering the foes and monsters he has to face.
Garet and Jenna stopped eating, wondering what he meant. Then they heard a faint explosion. The three looked at the main door and notice that was a wounded man went in and fell to the ground.
"Pirates," he panted, "pirates are attacking!"
"Pirates?" one man called
"Lets get out of here!" another screamed
"What do we do now?" Jenna asked
"You two go to Katherine and tell her what happened," Felix replied, "and get out of here as soon as possible. I'll handle the pirates."
"But Felix-"
Before Garet was to finish what he was going to say he was gone.
At the docks, where the pirates invaded…
"We have to find her mates!" the Captain called, "We'll need it on our destination to take the elemental stars!"
"Aye!" The other pirates called
"Stop right there!" Felix commanded
The pirates looked up on top of the watchtower and saw Felix, showing off with the sun shining beside him and his cape majestically follows the mighty sea breeze.
"I'm warning you," Felix called out once more and pointed at the captain, "get out of here and never come back!"
"Why should we mate?" the Captain growled
"You and what army?" one of the pirates joked
Then Felix 2 djinni, Echo and Iron, warped their way to Felix shoulders. The other pirates started laughing, some are laughing so hard that some started to cry.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you?" Felix warned knowing his djinni capabilities, "they are very sensitive."
"Hehe," the captain tried to hold himself, "what are they going to do? Make them throw hairballs at us!"
"Good one Capt.!"
"You asked for it," Felix sighed, "Echo!"
Echo then fused to Felix's sword and then Felix jumped down to the main deck. Now it's time to get serious. The Captain ordered them to attack Felix, but Felix knocked half of them out of the ship with one swing of his sword. The others froze at Felix's power.
"Looks like I have to take things in my own hands," the captain muttered, "time for my true form."
Felix looked up where the captain is and notice that something's wrong the captain start to have this malevolent aura surrounding him. Then he looked at the others as they were jumping off the ship.
"What's going on?" Felix growled, "but I know one thing for sure, he's not human."
"Duh," a familiar voice called, "his body shifting is definitely a sigh that he its not human."
Felix looked back and he couldn't believe that he was seeing, someone he wouldn't expect to see. At that moment he thought he was dreaming again. But he know this is different
"You must be Piers?" Felix called
"And you must be Felix," Pier replied, "my djinni told me to help you on stopping an evil that threaten the world. But I would have never thought we would meet him sooner."
"This is only a bystander," Felix replied, "The one I'm after is way stronger."
The two then looked back at where the captain is and saw that it was a giant Lizard man in disguise with silver armour and was twice the size of a normal Lizard man.
"That is one huge monster," Piers called, "this will take a while…"
"You got that right."
"Rrraaaahhhhh!" the Lizard man roared as he charged toward the two warriors with confident grins in their face.
