A World Embroiled in Chaos
Chapter Forty-Six: Kit's legendary weapon
A/N: Well, here's the third chappy of the day… Don't expect a fourth… but if I'm bored enough… another will come up. Now… back to the desert.
DISCLAIMER: Refer to Chapter One's Disclaimer.
…Back to the Desert…
"Ok… we should be getting close to your legendary weapon, soon." Yureidoru stated. "Good. Then we're going to attack the Bandit stronghold, right?" Kit asked. "Yeah. We're going to need some firepower to take out Brendan and Draco D' Zasclir." Yureidoru replied. "…. And after that, we can see if we can get some information on the silver rogue general in this desert." Kit added. "Perfect." Yureidoru replied. "Say… do you think that that Harris will come back?" He then asked. "He said that he'd meet us again." Kit replied. "Oh well. Whatever happens happens. We just need to press forward." Yureidoru sighed. Kit nodded. "We're getting close…" She stated.
"There it is. We're back." Kit said, noticing the pyramid-like structure on the horizon. "Just to make sure that nothing happens this time…" Yureidoru stated, transforming into his Mewtwo form, grabbing Kit's wrist, and teleporting directly to the temple entrance. "Couldn't we have just done that instead of walking across the entire desert?" Kit asked. "We could… but it's worth the exercise. Too much teleporting will make one lazy, so that'll person will get fat." Yureidoru smirked. "Screw exercise! I'm perfectly in shape! I don't need it!" Kit yelled. "I know. I'm just teasing you." Yureidoru stated. Kit calmed down a bit. "Actually… it's just that too much teleportation exhausts my power. I want to be perfectly ready for an ambush." Yureidoru explained. "Oh… that makes sense, then." Kit replied. The two then entered the pyramid-like structure.
"Ok… now it's your turn to wait." Kit stated, as Yureidoru nodded. "Fine. I'll wait here." He said. "I won't be gone long." Kit replied, going up a spiral staircase. "…Actually, these things take more than an hour or two…" Yureidoru muttered to himself, getting ready to take a nap.
The first room had three targets. Each target had a label above it. The first one said up. The second one said left…and the last one read 'pie.' There were no doors or windows… and the only way out of the room was the way she came in. "…What the heck is this all supposed to mean…?" Kit asked. She turned into her Roy form, and, using her Flare Blade, busted a hole in the wall in front of her, which led to another room. "I guess that was just there to confuse me." She stated, entering the next room, which appeared to be completely empty. Suddenly, the ceiling opened, and a large number of creatures fell into the room. "Great…" Kit sighed, as the large number of Lions and hellhounds came forward. She took out her blade, and quickly disposed of them all. "This isn't so hard…" She muttered to herself. However, the next room would change all of that…
…Meanwhile…
Harris was walking through the sandstorms of the desert with relative ease. "I wonder how the others are faring?" He muttered to himself. Suddenly, several bandits leapt out from under the sands. 'Why do they keep doing that…?' Harris thought. The bandits didn't ask for any valuables this time. 'I must be close to the stronghold…' He thought. The bandits simply stepped forward and attacked him, giving him no time to transform. Harris simply sighed, and kicked all the bandits' asses. He then walked on for a little while, until he found the gates of the bandit stronghold. "I guess I'll just wait for them here." He sighed, sitting down, and taking a nap.
…Back to the temple…
Kit looked at what laid in front of her. It was a large maze. With a spiked ceiling that began to gradually descend. The way she came from shut. "Shit." She muttered, making her way into the maze… as the ceiling began to descend a bit faster than it was before. "As if it was a pure stroke of luck… she didn't run into any dead ends, and made it to the exit before the spiked ceiling fell. She looked visibly fatigued. "All that running… was quite rough." She panted. It was then that she noticed that she made it to the altar of her legendary weapon. Actually sticking into the altar Excalibur-style was a large, ornate, glowing blade, radiating a spectacular brilliance.
"I suppose this is what I've come for." Kit said, going toward the blade, and trying to pull it out of the altar. The essence of the weapon began to speak within her head. 'I am the essence of Durandal… if you want to pry me from this altar, then you must conquer your dark self… are you prepared to do so?' The voice asked. Kit simply nodded. Her dark self, who had white hair and red eyes in contrast to her black hair, and blue eyes, was now standing behind her, in Roy form.
"Let's get this over with…" Kit sighed, unsheathing her blade. Her dark self lunged forward, and their blades clashed. Kit deflected the blow, knocking the dark Kit onto the ground. Kit was about to run her blade through the demon's neck when it melted into shadows, and disappeared into the ground. "That isn't fair…" Kit muttered.
The shadow then reappeared out of the ceiling. Kit jumped out of the way in time. "That REALLY isn't fair." She added. Her dark self lunged for her. Kit sidestepped, and used her sword to trip the demon, and then stabbed it through the back. The demon let out a cry of agony before dissolving into nothingness. The voice of the weapon entered Kit's mind again. 'Well done… you have proved yourself most worthy to wield me… now… you will find it most easy to withdraw me from this altar. Congratulations.' The voice said.
Kit simply sighed, and drew the gigantic blade out from the altar. (Picture the blade Durandal from Fire Emblem… only with a more ornate golden handle, a fierce glow, and is less broad, and the size of Biggoron's sword). She would think that it would be a heavy two-handed blade, judging by the size. For her, however, she could wield it just as easily as her usual blade… It was light enough to wield with one hand, but more powerful swings could be brought with two hands. She tested it out a bit, and smirked. "I'll find this most useful." She said to herself. An exit appeared in the wall, and she used it to head back to the room Yureidoru was waiting in.
"Wow. Neat weapon." Yureidoru stated, noticing Kit's blade. "Thanks." Kit replied. "So… where are we off to?" She then asked. "The bandit stronghold. Harris is awaiting us there." Yureidoru replied. Kit nodded, and the two left the temple, and back out into the desert. "Yureidoru?" Kit asked. "Yes?" Yureidoru replied. "Can you use your teleportation this time?" Kit asked. Yureidoru thought for a moment. "Just this once." He then said, transforming into his Mewtwo form, and teleporting the two to where Harris was waiting. Their three-person siege on the bandit stronghold would soon begin.
Coming up: I'm not even sure, but I'm too tired to write another chapter. There will be more tomorrow. So, please leave a review, and I'll get to updating, tomorrow.
Until Next Chapter,
