The Sword
Mitsurgi awoke he was in the church still. Nightmare had left; Ivy was lying on the floor. The samurai arose his feet still a bit dazed. Ivy had been knocked out, Cervantes swung Souledge Nightmare laughed at the old man's pitiful attempt to hurt him.
"What's wrong Cervantes slipping in your old age?" Nightmare asked.
The demonic knight impaled the old pirate with his Soul Edge, and swung the blade knocking Cervantes into the pipe organs. He jumped down; all that remained at his feet was rubble. The soul edge eye changed from red to purple Nightmare smirked. Mitsugri had climbed out the window half way down he saw an army of warriors atop a hill Necrid stood shouting something. The samurai jumped down he landed on his feet. He looked up to see a purple cloud overhead.
"Damn I'm to late that demonic son of a bicth is going to make his move"
YunSung had found a banded castle Talim fallowed behind Maxi had gotten better and was now walking.
"This is it?" Maxi asked.
"Sorry it's not what your use to Maxi but at least it's got a roof," YunSung responded.
The trio walked inside they found it was not that bad just the outside. Talim had been walking very close to YunSung so Maxi wandered off.
"Hey Maxi don't go…..ah what an idiot" YunSung said.
Talim smiled she fell.
"Ow my ankle" she said.
"You ok?" YunSung asked.
He helped her up he carried her to bed and set her down.
"You rest ok I'm going to find Maxi"
Xianghun lied on Kilik's chest. He awoke the girl however remaining asleep. Kilik looked at his side it was bandaged. Xianghun woke up the two were looking at each other. Both of them began to blush.
"Xianghun did uh well ummmm like did we uh well?" Kilik asked.
"What! No you just went a little crazy and I stabbed you but I'm glad you're alive"
"Did I hurt you?"
"No I'm fine but you got hurt pretty bad," Xianghun said smiling.
The two stood up Kilik looked at the surrounding trees. The shard of Soul Edge was glowing. Xianghun sword flew from her hand.
"Run now I'll hold them off"
She was confused how he know there was someone there. Necrid came out of the woods Kilik ran forward the giant grabbed the fighter's neck. Xianghun ran off, Kilik tried to escape the giants grip but could not.
Tira walked out from behind the behemoth. Kilik struggled, the girl ripped the shard form his neck. Necrid dropped Kilik he coughed. Tira walked over to weak fighter.
"Aw your already hurt aren't you and look your shard's reacting to your emotion don't worry we'll take good care of your little friend" The girl said.
Kilik stood up his staff ready Necrid ran forward Kilik poked the beast in the stomach and flipped him over. Tira stood back shocked by the fighter's ambition. Kilik bashed Tira in side. Necrid threw his energy ball at the fighter the knocked it back with his staff. The explosion was enormous Kilik looked up the two had left.
"I have to do this on my own" Kilik said he grabbed his staff and walked towards church.
Xianghun continued to run through the forest. She had to go back for Kilik he couldn't have taken Necrid on by himself. She found the large crater.
Nightmare walked back up the stairs Ivy was in the corner the demon grabbed the woman by the arm and dragged her to the top of the church he held her arms at her sides. She looked up at the cloud the sun was now covered by it.
"Now we can finally make use of you," Nightmare said.
A large eye appeared in the cloud the eye stunned Ivy. Nightmare herd a loud clap of thunder Ares god of war stood in front of Nightmare and Ivy.
"Don't you dare try to use Astaroth for you stupid mortal war" Ares shouted.
"Hah who says I'm mortal" Nightmare shouted as he swung Soul Edge the shockwave form the slash forced Ares to fall backwards. Ivy stood up Nightmare was holding the god of war above the ground below he was draining his energy. Ares tried to grab the Soul Edge but Nightmare's grip had ripped the god's soul right out of him. The god's soul had caused the Soul Edge to pulse. Ivy saw Nightmare's true self as his armor had began to crack. Siegfried fell to the ground the sword glowed red. The liquid of souls poured onto Siegfried consuming him in flames and twisted demonic armor. No longer human now a beast; Ivy was scared to death. The sound of the metal clanging together and the thunder and lighting was all she heard. Nightmare picked her up by the arm she shivered. The knight once again made her face the purple cloud the eye of the cloud surrounded Ivy in a red light the searing pain of the demonic energy surging through her, she screams in pain as Soul Edge slashes at her side her blood on the blade. Nightmare laughed, her screams and his laughter was heard all over.
Kilik heard the screams suddenly his head was filled with thoughts of pain and agony.
Talim had fallen asleep; her dreams were haunted by thoughts of Nightmare. YunSung had been defeated; Maxi was being devoured by demons. Astaroth had raped Taki. Xianghua had her throat slit. A man covered in demon tattoos with a Bo staff laughed at the agony of Talim's friends Seung stood next to the demonic fighter also laughing.
Talim awoke and began to cry. YunSung ran in.
"What's the matter?" He asked trying to calm her down.
"Nightmare, Kilik, and….." Talim said still shaken up by her dream.
"What about Kilik?"
"We gotta stop him from going to fight Nightmare," Talim said.
"Everything ok?" Maxi asked as he walked into the room.
Taki and Seung continued walking they found Kilik's coat next to his staff. Taki pulled out her sword. Kilik had went swimming, but Taki was looking for a fight.
