1Hi everyone. I had a feeling that the last chapter would be a little controversial. Oh well, it's just how I felt it would be. Don't hate me or Storm (she can't control her hormones). Okay, so it's time for me to respond to everyone's reviews.

luigidog: Don't worry I will be sure to keep writing this story, I'm enjoying it! I'm glad to see that you reviewed and I hope that you review again. I hope you didn't mind Storm and Zelos hooking up.

inuyahsa fangirl: That was pretty funny. Mithos is scared of Storm that's why he keeps her on his side, or at least tries to. Who knows maybe he will wet his pants when she comes looking for him? Sorry you didn't like Zelos and Storm but I don't think it will get any more intense than that because they wouldn't act like that around anyone else. Besides it may have just been a spur of the moment, raging hormone action. Glad that you reviewed, it was pretty entertaining.

PotatoPuff: Someone else who wishes Zelos would die. That's alright we can all have our own opinions. Sorry, I ran out of guys for her. Lloyd, uh no that would be wrong. Kratos, really wrong! Yuan, he's like an uncle to her and he's like 4000 years old. Genis, NO! Regal, I hate Regal so don't get me started. Mithos, I was actually seriously thinking about this pairing at one point in time. Zelos was pretty much all I was left with and their situations were a lot alike. I never was a HUGE fan of Zelos. Thanks for the review and I hope you enjoy this next chapter.

blackflame: I'm glad that someone figured out that Zelos and Storm would hook up. Sorry, that he didn't die if you want an explanation for the pairing read my response to Potato Puff, it's directly above yours. Beside that, thanks for the review and prepare for the fight in the next chapter.

Kratos Wilder: Of course, I wouldn't kill off Zelos, I need him for my story. I'm glad that you liked the pairing, you're about the only one who does. For some reason everyone wanted Zelos to die. Granted the story can go on without him, but Storm needed someone too. They're all just lucky I voted against having her pair up with Mithos (I was considering it). Thanks for the review and prepare for the fight.

LloydIrvingisMine: I love your name I need one like that except it would say KratosAurionisMine but I wouldn't steal that idea, and I like my name already. I'm glad you like this story and believe me I work on updating it as fast as I can. Thanks for your review.

FutUrE LlOyD: Sorry you didn't like the Storm and Zelos thing but I'm glad that you liked Storm. If you want my reasoning read my response to Potato Puff above. It is a better pairing than Storm and Mithos. Just remember she does need someone, especially someone who's gone through a lot of the same things she has. You know, someone to talk to. Anywho, thanks for the review and I am trying to review fast for everyone so try to be patient with my slowness.

Ana Paula92: I saw that review of yours a long time ago where you knew it would be Storm/Zelos. That was like within the first ten. I must congratulate you. Oh, and to join the Give Kratos a Hug Club you have to ask. Which you did, so good job you are now the third member of the club. You can be treasurer, Kratos Wilder is Vice President and I'll be President. Now, all you have to do is on someone's review put in something like (kratos lover1 gives Kratos a hug) whenever someone writes about something sad that happens to him. He could always use those extra hugs you know! Thanks for your review.

wavemasterkaz: Okay, so for a description of Storm. Think of Lloyd and Kratos. You know Kratos' hair color, that's Storm's. She has hazel eyes that show a lot of emotion. She's a tad shorter than Lloyd. Her hair is long and flows a little bit past her shoulders. Occasionally, she'll throw it up in a messy ponytail. She's very fit, from fighting and training, and has a friendly smile. Personality wise: She's very self conscious and is always worried about disappointing her friends and family. She does everything for everyone else and listens to everyone else and never really does anything for herself. When she does think with her heart she is very strong willed and determined. She will stand up for what she believes in unfortunately she doesn't really know what that is yet. Powers: Obviously she wields a sword like her father taught her. But, for some strange reason she can use magic, a trait normal of those with elven blood. She can also use angelic powers and has her own pair of blue angel wings. She uses Judgement and all that but she reserves a lot of that energy for big fights. She will also live forever like her father when her internal clock stops when she turns eighteen (two more years). With Mithos' hold on her emotions she cannot sleep or eat, but will all that come back with her emotions? Is that a pretty good description of her? That's all I could think of anything else just tell me.

Mez10000: Yeah, I am starting to get a little slow but I am trying to juggle this, school, and two jobs, so I feel like I'm doing okay. Sorry, I will try to speed up a little. And when you said the word slow I was thinking mentally slow, which I tend to be on various occasions (and slightly blonde). Well, thanks for the review and I hope you enjoy the next chappy!

muffineer: I'm glad that you finally caught up with the story and that you liked it. I was really depressed when you hadn't read it for a while so I'm happy you're all up to date with it. And, I personally loved my story about the pencil and the glue bottle, thank you very much.

Okay, on with the chappy!

Chapter 27: Archenemies

All right, this is it. It's time to finally do what my heart tells me. I'm tired of listening to Cruxis and I'm going to do what I've always wanted to, Storm thought as she walked down the seemingly endless hallway.

Finally, Storm stopped when she saw who she was looking so intensely for. Down the hallway was Pronyma, just coming back from handing over the Chosen to Yggdrassil. Pronyma stopped when she saw Storm and gave her a look of disgust.

"Hey runt, Lord Yggdrassil says he wants you to help him with Lloyd's group. Although, I don't think he has to worry, they won't make it past all the traps. Too bad that stupid Chosen wasn't able to kill them off," Pronyma said as she made her way towards Storm.

"I wouldn't get too cocky just yet Pronyma, Lloyd's group will be making it through all the traps," Storm replied as she glared at Pronyma.

"What are you talking about? There's no way they'd be prepared to face those traps," Pronyma replied.

"Yeah, well I know and so does Zelos. He's not dead, I saved him and told him to help Lloyd and the others and there's nothing that you're going to do about it," Storm casually informed a now infuriated Pronyma. Storm began to circle behind Pronyma to make her way towards Yggdrassil.

"You little traitor, I knew we should never have trusted you. You're just like all the other humans, you're betraying Yggdrassil and Cruxis. We raised you, taught you everything you know, and spared your life countless times and this is how you repay us you little brat. I told Yggdrassil we should have killed you a long time ago, but for some reason he thought that you were important to keep around," Pronyma spat angrily at Storm.

Storm kept her cool and just stared at Pronyma while she talked. She was finally not afraid of her and was ready to get her revenge on the person who had caused her so much pain.

"It doesn't matter what you think anymore Pronyma. Because of you I decided to go against Cruxis. All those years of lessons have finally turned me into a traitor. I'm tired of it all and I am going to do what I've always wanted to do. So, let's just see who's stronger between the two of us shall we?" Storm said as she brought out her wings and sword and prepared to fight.

"I'm going to kill you and make you suffer you filthy little human," Pronyma proclaimed as she prepared to attack.

And with the last exchange of words Storm and Pronyma launched at each other to begin their battle to the death. Only one would come out. All the years of anger and hatred, built up inside, exploded out as Storm began to lash out mercilessly at Pronyma. Storm began to move at a remarkable speed and Pronyma was barely able to keep up. Apparently, Storm had never really ever shown her full potential to Pronyma and she was thrown off guard at Storm's sudden change of speed and strength. When Storm backed off of Pronyma and her relentless shower of attacks subsided, Pronyma was covered with cuts and blood was pouring from her wounds. Pronyma stood trying to catch her breath as Storm tried to hide a snicker at the wounded half-elf.

Storm didn't really know what came over her, but all the built up hated and anger inside of her wasn't easy to control. It felt so good to finally obtain her revenge and she wanted to make Pronyma suffer for all the grief and pain she had caused over the years.

Storm didn't let Pronyma rest long as she flew up into the sky to begin an aerial assault, but Pronyma was quick to move and didn't allow Storm any room to attack. Storm was forced back to the ground where she charged at Pronyma. Pronyma, though was ready for her and set out her Aggarasium attack sending Storm up a painful vortex. But, Storm had the upper hand because she knew Pronyma's fighting style inside and out. She knew that she would be ready to attack with her Leonasium attack once she hit the ground. Storm used her wings to balance herself midair and prepared to launch her Beast attack. When she reached the ground, Pronyma and Storm each launched their separate attacks. The attacks hit each other resulting in a powerful explosion between the two. The blast knocked the two backwards a few feet. Once Storm had gained her composure she looked through the dust the impact caused to find her target.

I have to get this over with quickly if I want to help Lloyd and the others. I can't keep playing with Pronyma, I have to finish her off, Storm thought as she began to focus in and began to chant.

Pronyma was searching through the dust to find Storm, she had to admit she wasn't expecting Storm to be this powerful. She had to find Storm before Storm could find her. Through the dust, Pronyma managed to hear someone talking.

"Sacred powers, cast light upon this corrupted soul, blame your fate, JUDGEMENT!" Storm bellowed as the dust began to clear to reveal many light beams beginning to descend towards Pronyma. Pronyma tried to get out of the way but she was hit by a few of the blows.

Storm didn't manage to kill Pronyma with the attack but she did stun her. Storm swiftly flew to where Pronyma was laying, recovering from the attack. Storm picked Pronyma up and carried her off the ground. She held onto her as she flew straight up to the ceiling, which was about ten or twenty feet high. Storm then stopped and turned, doing a nosedive towards the ground. Pronyma became aware of what was going on too late as Storm through her to the ground and avoided hitting the ground herself. Not only did Storm throw her, but she also sent a wave of mana in the form of an Outburst attack hitting her at the same time she hit the ground.

Storm walked over to the small crater created in the floor as she looked at Pronyma who was barely hanging onto life. She looked at the person who caused her so much suffering and smiled at what she had done.

"How's it feel Pronyma? I just wish I could have done this a long time ago," Storm said.

"You...think you're...you're doing the right thing...but...but you're just as much...a killer...as...as we are. That's something...you won't ever...change about yourself. I hope you...know...I'll get...my revenge...someday," with those last few words Pronyma closed her eyes and faded away, gone in an instant.

I did it. I finally took revenge. It feels good, but at the same time I feel terrible. I've never really killed anyone. Maybe Pronyma's right, maybe I am a killer like Mithos. So, what makes us different? I don't know anymore, I only know that this is what felt right and that I have to help Lloyd. But, if the time comes will I be able to kill Yggdrassil? He's always been like family to me. Can I really be a killer like Pronyma said? Storm thought as she quickly made her way to where Yggdrassil was holding Colette.

Sorry, if that was short, but I wanted to devote a chapter just to Pronyma and Storm. So, is everyone satisfied with how it went. Please tell me, I would love to know how you liked it. Don't worry, this story is far from over, we have a long way to go. Actually, the other day I was also considering a sequel once this story is over. What do you all think? Please read and review. Sorry if it's short, I spent a long time respnding to reviews (I love to respond to everyone.)
