Chapter Two-Know The True Enemy

Xion entered his hideout and through his coat on a couch. I wasn't until he sat behind his desk and looked around that he noticed that all of his new gang of henchmen were all unconcious. Xion stood up in a slight shock. "Show yourself, coward!", Xion shout while looking around franticly.

"Coward?...You're one to talk", a deep and calm voice answered.

Xion turned to find the intruder standing right behind him. Regaining his cool Xion greeted the man, "What do you want...Master Long?"

"I don't know what you're planning, but I'm guessing that it involves the cloned zoanthropes", Long answered back.

Xion raised his eyebrows, "Wow, you are intelligent. Those clones have power far beyond our own".

Long put his arms behind his back, "You're admitting inferiority? I'm impressed"

"Inferior to them? Me? Don't make me laugh old man. They may be powerful, but they lack thought. They're just berserkers, no brains at all.", Xion said with a smug look on his face.

"The same could be said about you", Long said.

Xion made a disgusted look at hearing this from Long.

Long sat down in the chair on the otherside of Xion's desk, "How do you propose to control these...berserkers?"

Xion sat down as well, "They simply want to destroy. If you get in the way, they destroy you. I'll give them subjects to destroy...and I'll stay out of their way".

Long almost smiled, "Do you honestly think that it's going to be that easy?"

"Well, we'll just see won't we?", Xion answered. He still bared the same smug look on his face. A look that screamed, "I don't care".

Long stood up and began to walk out of Xion's hideout. Just as Long approached the door, he stopped and looked back at Xion, "...You're like a child. You don't know when to stop playing. I fear that you will become a victim of your own games.

Xion scoffed at Long's last words, "Whatever old-man".

Kenji sat under a billboard, atop a fairly large building downtown. Shrouded in his scarf, he held the sword that Eddie had given him. "I'm sorry Eddie...Eddie and Takuryu. You both died because of me...". Kenji pondered on about what a trouble he's been since Yugo brought him amoung the others.

Kenji sensed the presence of another person. At about that time, a voice spoke up, "You can't help it...it's the way you were made".

Kenji stood and turned to find Xion leaning against the billboard, casually of course. Kenji looked back out at the city, "What do you know about me?"

"More than they told you", Xion answered. He was referring to Yugo and the others.

Kenji looked at Xion, "What do you mean".

Xion walked up and stood beside Kenji. They both stood on the edge of the building. Xion's sinister eyes met Kenji's, "Doesn't it bother you that Yugo neglected to tell you about how he found you at a Tylon Laboratory? Doesn't it bother you that none of your so called friends ever took the effort to find out who you really are?"

"Doesn't matter now, I know who I am. I'm Bakuryu...master in the Kato school of ninja. That's who I was made to be anyway...I'm nobody. I'm not of this world. I was created. I'm just the product of experimenting...", Kenji answered. He seemed to have completely abandoned emotion at this point.

Xion grinned, "You know why Yugo is giving you so much trouble? It's because he's scared of you. He saw you fighting and he's realized that your abilities surpass his own. He's scared of not being the strongest anymore".

"I still can't beat him...", Kenji argued.

"Not like this...but I can help you become stronger", Xion told the boy.

Xion's words seemed to strike interest in Kenji. He looked at Xion with a seriousness in his eyes, "How?"

"When you fought Vertigo you unleashed all of your raw power. Others may tell you that you're unstable. It's true, but I can stablize this power. The reason for instability is because your raw power is...a dark power. In order to use it properly...you have to accept darkness...are you ready to accept such a thing?", Xion asked. His proposal seemed very tempting. Before Kenji would turn away from such a thing, but now the concept of unlimited power caught him.

Kenji looked out at the city again. "What happens to me if I accept darkness?", Kenji asked curiously.

"Besides becoming stronger than you could have ever imagined? Let's see...you'll join others like you, with infinite power.. All you have to do is take my hand...", Xion extended his right hand. He bared a friendly, but sinister grin on his face.

Kenji looked at the hand. It seemed to glow with a dark aura, and it captivated Kenji. He stretched his own hand out. Even if Kenji wanted to stop, he couldn't. He was completely taken by his new friend's offering. Just as Kenji's hand touched Xion's thousands of pains rushed through his body all at once. Suddenly, he couldn't move. Kenji fell to his knees.

Xion still had Kenji's hand within his grip. "You'll be a warrior in a dark legion...", Xion's grin became a twisted smile, "MY LEGION!".

When Kenji's hand broke from Xion's he felt the after sensation of all the pain from before. His, now, red eyes looked like they could burn straight through anyone who met them. Kenji stood up quickly. He was now in rage because of the pain inflicted upon him. He aimed his fire-like eyes at Xion, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!". Kenji was about to attack but just as he pulled back his fist he froze.

"A deal is a deal...", Xion said calmly. He extended his hand toward Kenji. Xion now owned Kenji completely. The boy was once again a slave of evil. Xion curled his hand into a fist, "We have work to do...I have a task for you"

"Yes?", Kenji asked as he bowed his head.

"Destroy the Chimera", Xion ordered.

Kenji nodded, "Yes...master..."
