World Reset

Chapter 4 – Chaotic Wind

Vent closed his eyes as he felt himself falling until he hit something hard and reopened his eyes. He sat up and looked around, finding himself to be on a broken platform on his own before the sound of footsteps came closer and closer. Vent got up to his feet and looked to the direction where the sound came from and saw a man familiar to him with green armor.

"Aeolus!" Vent recognized the man, who stayed silent and pulled out his twin pink sabers instead, "Hey! What do you think you're doing!?" Vent looked at Aeolus' red eyes before he hesitantly pulled out his green ZX saber, "You're not the same Aeolus who joined the Guardians before, are you?"

"My only desire has always been to rid this world of fools such as you and your friends," Aeolus spread his arms wide with his sabers in his arms, "Thomas has promised us the ideal world, where everything is perfect and fools such as you do not exist!"

"Humans aren't made to be perfect from the start!" Vent reached for his ring on his finger, "That's why… that's why they need other people! Together they make each other perfect!"

"Foolish ideals coming from foolish people…" Aeolus pointed his shorter saber in his right hand at Vent, "Let's see whose ideals are much suited in this world!"

Vent quickly ran towards Aeolus' side and swung his saber, but Aeolus blocked the attack with the longer saber in his left hand. Vent pulled out his buster and charged it before locking his saber with Aeolus' pink one. Vent released his charged shot, knocking Aeolus away from him, but the red-eyed man didn't seem to be bothered by the attack.

Aeolus crossed his sabers in front of him as Vent sent out his Rising Fang attack and completely blocked the attack, much to Vent's surprise before sending out a few cyclones at the surprised Chosen One. Vent was knocked back by the cyclones, but managed to get back to his feet and jump away as Aeolus slammed both of his sabers down and destroyed some of the ground where Vent used to be.

'What power…' Vent thought as he saw the destruction caused by Aeolus' sabers.

A shadow was suddenly seen over Vent's head, but he noticed soon enough before Aeolus dove down with his crossed sabers to strike him. Vent landed safely behind Aeolus and charged his saber before he ran towards the Wind Mega Man. Aeolus noticed as Vent came closer, but didn't bother turning around to face him and swung his longer saber instead, completely blocking the impact of Vent's charged saber.

Vent jumped back a little before charging in and slammed his saber once more, but Aeolus blocked it with his other saber effortlessly. Aeolus knocked Vent's saber away from his before he spun around with his sabers spread wide, hitting Vent continuously as he was spinning before he suddenly stopped and sent out a small cyclone towards him.

Vent was blown away by the cyclone, giving Aeolus the chance to follow the attack with his three-slash combo and sent Vent roughly to the ground. Vent shakily raised his head and looked up at Aeolus, who was looking down at him with a cold stare with his glowing red eyes. Vent pushed himself up, enduring the pain all over his body and clutched tightly to his saber before Aeolus suddenly disappeared from his sight.

'Where… where is he…?' Vent looked around, panting, but the Wind Mega Man was nowhere to be found around him.

A flash of green and pink passed behind Vent before he felt a cut of his back. Vent quickly turned around with his saber in front of him, but the only thing he could see was the dark nothingness around him. Vent felt another cut on his right hand and made him drop his saber before a calm wind blew around him.

'This is… Aeolus' power… The power from Model H… The power of the wind…' Vent shakily knelt down and picked up his saber before holding its hilt tightly, 'But… I have the power too… The power of a legendary hero…' Vent looked at the green saber he was holding, 'The power from Model Z… and Boss' spirit…'

"How persistent…" Vent looked up from his saber and saw Aeolus standing in front of him, barely damaged from the fight, "You may say whatever you want about your own ideals, but ideals are just merely empty ideals if you don't have the power to make them come true," Aeolus drew the end of his sabers together, "If you choose to give up, then I might as well give you a chance to live in the ideal world Thomas is going to make for us."

"Sorry, but I hate perfectionists like you," Vent let out a smile, but his eyes were glaring at Aeolus, "I feel better being imperfect, because I can be together with someone else and make each other perfect."

"What a fool," Electricity started forming on the end of Aeolus' sabers, "There are only two kinds of people in this world: the best and the worst. The best people are meant to be perfect and to lead the worst people, but the worst people are always rebelling against the change. They are the fools who decided to be foolish for the rest of their lives."

Aeolus sent out the wave of electricity at Vent, who took the attack directly and was knocked away to the ground, "S-So what…? Maybe… people who call others fools… are the stupid ones here…"

Aeolus growled in anger before approaching Vent and dug his foot on the collapsed Chosen One's stomach before pointing his saber down to Vent's throat, "I hate to get my saber dirty with the dirty blood of imperfect beings like you, but I have no regret if I take your life away right here, right now."

Vent grabbed Aeolus' foot tightly as he stepped on him harder, making him slowly lose consciousness. Aeolus raised his sabers above his head and was about to slam it down on Vent, but he had disappeared from under his foot in a white light. Aeolus let out another angry growl before transforming back to his human form, in which he had his light green hair longer and was tied into a ponytail, before he teleported out of the place.
