Disclaimer: I don't own Shaman King
Decisions
It was total chaos on the Holy Ground of Stars. Clashes of weapons, cries of pain and anger were heard. On the battlefield of the Holy Ground they fought the Final Battle; the battle that decides all. For one the fate of the earth, for the other safety of everyone; it was an atrocious battle, the kind were friends had to fight each other and enemies had to be cruel.
"DEJ, Imperial Moon!" Tory yelled she was fighting against Ren. Her spirit fired a silver colored blast that he barely managed to dodge.
Oh man, this isn't going the way I planned it! How much longer till Yoh wakes up? If it keeps going this way people WILL get hurt…
She was fighting against Ren and Horo, the rest was fighting against Hao and Anna was busy preparing her binding spell with the 1080's. Yoh was still 'dead' and according to Tory's info that wouldn't last much longer.
"BASON!" Ren yelled and woke her up out of her thoughts.
Luckily DEJ saw the huge Kwan Dao and could dodge it just in time. "Mistress, we can't go on like this; you'll run out of furyoku any minute." Her spirits said concerned.
"I know, but we have to go on at least till Yoh wakes up." She whispered back this time dodging an attack of Horo.
Her spirit flew higher, preparing for another attack. The moment DEJ wanted to fire the attack, the giant oversoul broke. Oh SHIT! I'm out of Furyoku! This isn't good, if I don't rest for a few moments I'm not sure if I will be able to save Hao. And to make matters worse…I'm gonna crash!
Her spirits disappeared and with nothing left to stand on she began to fall. But she didn't fell low, for the Spirit of Fire had caught her in midair.
"Thanks, Hao." Tory smiled as the SoF placed her on it's shoulder next to Hao.
"What happened? Don't tell me those weaklings broke your oversoul." He raised an eyebrow at her.
"N-no, I'm kinda using my own strength now…so it's a bit hard to use giant oversoul for a long time…" she sighed.
Before he could respond Horo had frozen them in and now both of them were in ice till their waists. Tory blinked her eyes and was now looking very pissed.
"Hao…This sucks…this really, really SUCKS!" she exclaimed.
The ice already started to melt under the heat of the Spirit of Fire. Anna was ready to launch her 1080's and all of Yoh's friends backed off a little. The Spirit of Fire was now surrounded by the white 1080's beads.
Okay…they now fire their attacks at us in hope they can defeat Hao, but Hao breaks out not going for the same spell two times. It's still save now, hope I can use the giant oversoul before it's too late…
Anna dropped to her knees when she saw that her binding spell failed to hold Hao. The others were all on the platform, trying to get up from Hao's last attack.
"If you can't fight anymore, I suggest that you just watch with Opacho." Hao whispered in Tory's ear.
"No way, I have to make sure YOU don't lose your cool. And besides giant oversoul of three isn't the only oversoul I can use…" she grinned evilly.
"Tory, what do you mean?" Jessica asked looking down at the platform.
"I think she wants to giant oversoul one of us." Destiny said before Tory could answer.
"Yea, okay this is the plan; I giant oversoul Emerald and integrate Jessica for a little energy boost. Destiny is going to wait till you-know-what happens and then we switch, okay?" she explained, her spirit companions nodded.
Emerald's form of oversoul was a huge purple dragon with wings on its back and razor sharp claws. Her tail had some kind of scissor plates on it; the only thing you could recognize from the old Emerald were her green eyes.
"Whoa, what is that thing?" Horo looked up at the huge Emerald that appeared in front of him.
"I don't care just attack!" Ren responded annoyed and attacked.
The fight continued were it had stopped; Ren and Horo against Tory and the rest against Hao. This time when they all hit the ground Hao wanted to know why they were so determent to continue fighting.
"Because Yoh is still here." Lyserg said.
'Yoh is still here?' OMG, it's gonna happen, he's going to wake up! Tory thought more frightened then excited.
"Hao DON'T lose your cool!" she yelled when she saw Hao looking very annoyed, but it was too late he wanted to attack them; but stopped it in midair.
Tory quickly fired an attack at Horo and Ren, to make an opening. "Mistress, nothing is going according to the plan! Everything that is happening now is new it's real…Tory if someone dies now they will stay dead!" Emerald said flying towards Hao.
"I know, but-." She was cut off Jessica broke the integration.
"TORY WATCH OUT!" Chocolove had appeared behind her and Mic was ready to attack…
Tory's PoV:
What I saw was unbelievable…Jessica threw herself in front of the attack, but instead of going right through her it stopped. I was confused and scared at the same time, but most of all I was mad, for I had lost my friend for the second time…
"Emerald w-what happened, w-where is Jessica?" I stuttered.
"I-I think with you using your own power to come here…we aren't able to stay, at least the ones that don't belong to this world." She thought about her answer and in my opinion she didn't know what she was talking about.
"Okay change of plans, Destiny integrate!" a new boost of energy entered my body and I prepared for another attack. Jessica was gone and it was my fault; this time my plan wasn't going to fail me.
I was aiming for Chocolove, but just when I was ready to make the impact it was stopped by Yoh…
He's awake.
That were the last words I thought when he slammed me on the platform. They were now heading for Hao, who was captured by Horo, Ryu, Faust and Ren. Yoh was standing on the head of Chocolove's spirit, Mic, he attacked Hao.
My eyes widened, but I quickly snapped out of it, it wasn't the time…and I was right Hao jumped of the Spirit of Fire and landed on the platform. Opacho ran towards him.
"Hao-sama why are you angry?" Opacho asked.
"Angry! Since when did I get angry!" he said, his eyes were white and very scary. Opacho looked scared at him what seemed to make him even angrier.
"What's wrong Opacho, why do you look at me that way! You have the same look in your eyes as those humans!" he snapped.
"HAO! Clam down, it's no use to get all frustrated on Opacho!" I yelled trying to calm him down. Opacho stood beside me still looking very scared.
"Why do you think I'm frustrated!" he walked up to me now standing only a foot away from me. I looked to the ground; everything was going wrong and it wouldn't get any better from now on.
"Just get those Great Spirits and do what you wanna do, I know I can't stop you from trying to achieve your dreams, but please watch out…" I whispered not looking him in the eye.
We stood there for a moment, when he finally summoned the Spirit of Fire and this time he aimed for the Great Spirits. I decided to stay on the platform to save my last powers.
"Tory, do you really think this is the right decision?" Destiny asked looking at the Spirit of Fire who was going inside the huge shining pillar of spirits.
I just sat there and thought about it…was this really what I am supposed to do? Was THIS what the Priests wanted me to do? Wait till the end and try and stop death then? They said I had to defeat death with something more powerful, but I still did not know what could possibly be stronger then the undeniable.
"We have to wait and see Destiny. With Jessica gone I don't know what to expect any more." I smiled at her.
Emerald changed back to her original serpent form and floated next to me. "There is only one problem with the plan Tory…What if they try to stop you?" she asked concerned.
I thought about it for a moment when I answered; "If they try to stop me……I will have to hurt them."
I turned around and saw Anna, Manta, Silva and Karim giving me death glares. Not too long after that Faust and Lyserg crashed to the ground quickly followed by Horo, Ren, Ryu and Chocolove. Now it was only Yoh against Hao…
"Tory-san, Opacho wonders…if Hao-sama stays this way will he lose?" without me seeing it he had placed himself next to me.
"Don't worry Opacho nothing will happen to him…" I lied and smiled at the little child.
He doesn't have to know. It won't happen; I'll make sure it won't happen!
Loud explosions were heard and I saw Yoh fall out of the sky a few times. His friends were all on the platform, all out of furyoku and all cheering for what seemed to be their last hope on defeating Hao.
Destiny was in her human form instead of her spirit form, staring emotionlessly at the fight. Emerald was looking at it as well, wondering when we would interfere and what we would do.
When I looked up again I saw Yoh dropping out of the sky; Amidamaru was out of harusame flying next to Yoh. He quickly oversouled with the sword again and stopped Yoh from crashing into the ground.
In the mean time I had to get the hell out of there, for I was sitting very close and Hao fired a pillar of fire towards Yoh.
I looked up at Hao; he was laughing maniacally and yelling things like 'burn' and 'die' to Yoh. "Opacho listen very good to what I am about to say. I want you to get out of here and go to somewhere save. No buts just DO it!" I commanded the little child.
He looked frightened at me, not really understanding why I wanted him to leave. I looked emotionlessly back at him and he finally left.
"It's almost time…" I whispered to my two remaining spirits.
"So, you're actually gonna do it?" Destiny looked scared at me.
"Yes."
"Very well then. We will fight with you till the end." Emerald stated and Destiny nodded in agreement.
I also nodded at them. The final phase was about to begin.
"Emerald oversoul into the Beads! Destiny Integrate! It's time…"
I looked up at the sky and saw Yoh, or better said a huge Amidamaru, fighting with Hao. It would take Yoh a couple of hits to finally finish Hao, but not this time, this time no one was going to die on the Holy Grounds.
First try…
Second try…
Third try…
Fourth try…
My mind was counting down; my hands were all sweaty, my neck was hurting from looking up and my furyoku was dropping fast.
I have to hold on just a little longer!
