NightWarriors: The Door of Destruction is Revealed

By JJ

Par 2 of 3

Author's Note: I know the first part was short, so to make up for that this story will be longer. I don't own any of the Darkstalker characters. This is just a fictional story.

As the marines surround Zero and James, the only thought that went through James' head was, "He's going to kill all of them." Zero looked at all the soldiers with their M-16s pointing at him and James. Zero closed his eyes and smiled, "So this is how things will end, the blood of many people on your hands. Fitting, for the Key of Destruction." James clenched his hands as anger started to come over him. Zero opened his eyes and raised his hand with the energy ball in it, "So it's a fight you want, then a fight you will get." James charged at Zero with great speed, "I will not let this people die!"

James swung at Zero with all his might; Zero simply sidesteps his attack with a smiled on his face. Zero clenches James' stomach and fired an energy force right through him. Zero pulled away from James and let him fall to his knees. The soldiers started to fire at Zero. Zero shifted between all the bullets that came at him. Zero charged up another energy attack, "Humans, be gone."

Zero fired his energy attack at all the Marines in front of him. James quickly appeared in front of the entire Marine and used his psychic barrier to hold off Zero's attack. Zero was surprised and amaze by how much power James had left. When the energy attack decimated James collapsed to the ground. His breath was heavy at this time. He had lost so much blood from Zero's first attack; he didn't know how much longer he could hold off Zero. James slowly gets to his feet; "I will defeat you and save these humans at the same time."

Zero laughed at him, "You're such a fool, you can't even begin to understand my power. As the father of all Darkstalkers, none of my children can stand against my power. What makes you think you can defeat me, human?" James got into his fighting stance, "The will to live and kick your ass." Zero laughed at James and quickly struck him before he knew where Zero was coming from. Zero uppercut James with great strength, "Foolish mortal. I am the father of all Darkstalkers; their power is my power. Their attacks are my attacks. To think after getting so many pregnant, only a handful of my children have some of my attacks. Donovan Bane, his strength comes from me. John Talbain, his speed comes from me. Queen Bee, her love for souls comes from me. Morrigan Aensland, she has a thrust to be in a challenging fight that comes from me as well. Felicia with her balanced attacks, that comes from me. Anita, my sweet youngest daughter, she has most of my all powers. Pyron, my first born, his need to find more power, which comes from me. No matter which Darkstalker you come across, they all have some of my powers. The only one that I will not identify as a Darkstalker is the one they call, B.B. Hood. She did not come from me, there for she is not my true child." James Hits the ground and slowly gets back up, "So, they all answer to you. Then tell me this. Who's your master?" Zero struck James into the ground, "How dare you bring up that foolish being. I am Zero, father of all Darkstalkers, and I answer to no one."

Zero aura started to change, "I grow tire of this one sided fight, so as a favor to this world, I will end you existents." Zero starts to chant in a language that James couldn't understand. The aura around Zero started to gather in his hands. He slowly brought his hands together, when he did this a great force of wind blow the Marines back. A red globe with a black aura started to build up in Zero's hands. James slowly opens his eyes to see this.

A thought ran through James' head, "Felicia, I'm sorry, that I can't come back to you. I have finally broken a promise to someone. Felicia, please forgive me." As the energy in Zero's hands grew, there was a sudden change in the air. A sound of two old doors creaking stopped Zero. Zero looked up at the sky, "Could it be, is it the Door of Destruction?" As the could above cleared out, there next to the moon as floating two giant doors. The symbol of destruction cover both doors, a blue aura started to surround the symbol.

James felt a sudden power surge in his body. He looked up and saw the door floating in the sky. The blue aura start to speed towards James, Zero looked back at James. He was in shock to see what was floating in front of the human he was fighting. A key with a blue aura was floating in front of James' body. Zero look back at the aura that was coming towards James. Zero just realized the blue aura was power, but just not any power; it was power of destruction. Zero quickly fired dark energy at James, but it was too late.

The blue aura struck James and deflected Zero's dark energy. A voice within the wind could be heard, "Awaken, thy Key of Destruction." The blue aura disappeared and James arose to his feet. Protonic energy surrounded James' body; "Behold destruction has come to destroy all those who stand against it." James clenched his hands and quickly changed into his vampire form. James looked at Zero, "Zero, you're blood will rain today." James quickly struck Zero in his face before he had time to react.

Zero flew back a couple of feet and hit the ground. James gathered protonic energy in his right hand, "Behold the Key of Destruction." A key appeared in front of James, he grabbed it, "Key of Destruction give me your power and strength, become a part of me, until my last breath." James let go of the key, the key turned into blue energy. This blue energy became part of his energy. Zero stood up and clenched his hands in anger, "The Key of Detraction's power belongs to me. I command you to give it to me."

James looked at Zero, "So you can kill all those who stand against you. I think not." James brought his hands together, "Twist…of…Fate!" James fired an energy beam at Zero. Zero moved his hand towards a building and the energy beam went in that direction Zero was pointing at. James was stun to see what Zero did with his attack. Zero smiled evilly, "Do you really think I will let a weak attack like that one, touch me. True you have power of destruction in you, now let's see if you can understand it fast enough to defeat me."

Without warning Zero fired a giant energy beam at James. James blocked the energy attack with his psychic barrier. Unfortunately for James his attack was only a distraction. When James put his barrier down when the attack stopped, he only saw a giant fist coming towards him. He didn't have time to react, he took the hit and was sent flying. James hit a build's wall, when he got back to his feet he saw that Zero had changed forms. Zero eyes where now yellow, and his body was hidden by a dark aura.

Zero spoke in a double deep voice, "Now, you will feel my true power." Zero shifted from where he was and shifted in front of James. James had no time to react again, Zero hit James with a barge of hits and energy attacks. Zero just became too fast for James to keep up with him. Zero grabbed James when he did his last attack. Zero eyes lowered, as he tossed him into a building. When James struck the building there was so much force that the building clasped onto James.

Zero turned away from the clasped building and started to walk away. There was a sudden shift in the rubble of the building. James slowly crawled out of the rubble and stood to his feet. James was now slightly injured from the wreckage of the building. James' eyes started to turn red, "I'm not done, not by a long shot." James charge at Zero, a struck him in his face.

Zero's face barely moved from his attack. Zero laughed at James as he kicked him away. Zero brought up his hand; James was suddenly hit by multipliable energy attacks. James hit the ground hard and he slowly picked himself up. In James' mind he thought, "I must become fast and must do a move that he can not stop." James threw his right hand in front of his body, "Protonic Shock!"

Protonic Energy flew towards Zero with great speed. Zero took the hit a shook it off like it was nothing. James was in shock at what he saw, "This can't be." Zero laughed as shifted towards James, "But it is." Zero struck James with multipliable attacks and energy beams all at the same time. James struck the ground again, "I must win, I can't be defeated. I'm the only hope for these Marine and the whole world."

Zero over a hole where James was laying in, "Your powers are strong and dangerous, but you are not strong enough and you don't have the experience to defeat me, let alone any other Darkstalker." Zero aura started to glow brighter, "With your death, I will add your powers to mine. Then I will become unbeatable. No one will ever be able to stop me. With the power of destruction, I will destroy this world and galaxy. Then I will move on and find better power to destroy all life forms every where." Zero start to laugh evilly as he started to build up an energy globe in his right hand. James started to cry; "I have failed. I have just killed every last living being in all the universes. My God, please, help me." Time suddenly started to slow down, when a sound of opening doors could be heard. A gentle voice whispered in James' ears, "Don't ever give up, believe and you will win." James looked around in the hole he laid in, "Mother?"

With those words, a blue light shot up from the hole Zero was standing over. A great force of energy started to push Zero away from the hole. The floating door in the sky started to glow as its doors fully opened. A roar of a dragon echoed from the sky, as a sword started to slowly float down towards the ground, within the blue light. Zero look up and saw the sword floating down in the blue light. Zero's eyes widen, "No, not that. Not the Sword of Destruction, not the Ultimate Weapon." Zero fired his energy attack at the sword.

The sword took the hit and kept on floating down towards the ground. At the same time James slow floated out of the hole he was in. James looked up at the sword floating down towards him. Zero started to fire multipliable energy attack at James, but the blue light protected him from the energy attacks. Zero anger started to build up, "This can't be, how could a foolish mortal like him, be able to call upon the sword, with no name, only known to demons and angels as the Sword of Destruction. How could he call upon it, how?" The sword stopped in front of James, floating in mid air.
