II – V
First Judgment: CHAOS
Jake's claws were engulfed in flames and he blasted several Chaos clones and minions to bits. Only twenty minions and one Clone remained. "How much longer must I fight?" Jake slashed through two minions and threw others into each other. The final Chaos clone's arms morphed into long blades and it grinned devilishly.
"You're mine!" The clone threw itself at Jake and sliced his chest, making an X shaped, deep-cut on his chest.
"Ah!" He screamed in pain. The clone threw itself backward and kicked Jake to the ground, before smashing his head into the dirt.
"No mercy!" the copy slammed its foot onto Jake's back, making him wince in pain. "Feel the pain… the agony… embrace your destiny!"
"C, creep…" Rose watched helplessly as Jake was beat and his wings torn.
"I've got to help…" Rose saw the Huntsman's sword and picked it up. She jumped in front of Jake and blocked the next slash by the clone's blades.
"Die!" Now it was Jake's turn to watch. He watched as she blocked each move with ease, before delivering a finishing blow on the chest eye. "Foooool!" It moaned as it began to shatter into millions pieces like glass (think of the way Navi's are deleted in the Rockman EXE Anime). Rose ran to aid her injured friend, and helped him too his feet. He smiled at her and was forced into human-form by his injuries.
"Rose… thanks…"
"Jake, you're my friend. I wasn't going to let you die… not like that…"
"You two need some help?" An old man called from his ship. "I've spent weeks explorin' dis here Island, but I had no idea that two young people such as yerselves were stuck here." He said.
"Thanks." Rose said. She helped Jake onboard the ship and they were given a ride home.
… … … … …
Dan, repossessed by Chaos, sat in his throne high above NYC. "Nobody can stop me now. Nobody!" Chaos said. He looked at the burning ruins that were once NYC. "Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!"
… … … … …
"Well Rose, I guess this is goodbye." Jake said. As he grabbed the potion Laoshi had created. "But…" Jake looked in a dark corner of the room and saw Father Time of the Council smiling. "You can come with me… if you want."
"Jake, I'd love to, but what would that do to the timeline? I can't."
"Rose, Its okay. I'm sure of it." Time disappeared into the wall, nodding at Jake. "I think it'll be alright if you come."
"Are you sure?" Rose asked, still a bit unsure.
"Positive. Time is a complicated thing… but I don't think this'll mess anything up in the timeline." Jake took Rose's hand and opened a portal back to his time. "Well, let's go."
… … … … …
Rose appeared in Jake's time, and looked around at the burning ruins of New York. "Its begun… Chaos' reign… we may be too late…" He said. Rose looked a bit surprised. Was Jake giving up?
"Jake, are you giving up? We can do this, I know we can." She reassured him.
"Its possible… but doubtful." Kaje said, with Pain, Destruction and Fate behind him. "We've been fighting for three days now… Chaos has full control over Dan, and his minions are everywhere. The prophecy's begun…"
"No…! I missed my only chance…" Jake said.
"I did say its possible to defeat him, right?" Kaje asked.
"But doubtful." Jake finished. "You told me yourself that there was no chance after Chaos gains control. Its over."
"Jake…" Rose said. "Come on, together we can beat him, right?"
"Maybe. It's all up to Dan now. He's had a very strong will, but Chaos has been wearing it down for months. He's the only one who can save us now." Hannah and Kaelyn walked out of a burning building and approached Jake.
"Jake, you're back!" Kaelyn yelled. Hannah just looked at the ground, a depressed look on her face.
"Gah, ha, ha, ha, ha… the gang of fools reunited. How amusing." Chaos summoned creatures made entirely of fire, which attacked the six. "Dance, fools, dance!" He yelled as the creatures shot flames at the heroes' feet. Hannah twirled around and froze the creatures before shattering them. "Way to ruin a party. Time to burn, foolish mortals!" The six attacked Chaos together, using their absolute strongest attacks. As the smoke and dirt cleared, Chaos appeared, unscathed. "Hah, that tickled! Any other little 'attacks' you wanna' try?" He laughed. "I didn't want to kill you. Really I didn't. You would have made great servants… but I guess it wasn't meant to be!"
"I, impossible! No one's ever survived a blow like that! Not even Gamma X!"
"Let me show you my favorite attack now. Negative Beam!" Chaos engulfed all the negative energy in the city and shot it out of his mouth in the form of a laser. The group narrowly dodged the attack and struck back, still doing no damage. "Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! This is hilarious. Your pathetic attempts will never work! Its over!"
"I give up." Jake said. "We harm him… how can we stop him if we can't even hurt him?"
"Fighting isn't always the answer, Jake." Rose said. "If Dan's still in there, he can stop Chaos. We just need to find away to get to him…"
"I'll do it. If anyone can knock some sense back into him… it'd be me." Hannah stood in front of Chaos and approached him.
"What do you think you're doing, stay back, girl!"
"Dan… I know you're in there. Listen to me… we can defeat Chaos… but not if you're just going to give in. You're in control, not him!" Hannah said, still walking closer.
"S, stay back!" Chaos yelled. He blasted Hannah with a beam of negative energy; she fell backwards, but got up and continued to walk closer. "No! I won't let you control me, Daniel! I am all mighty!"
"Chaos is losing control!" Fate said, amazed. "This is impossible!"
"No! You can't!" Chaos struggled to stay in control, but the closer Hannah got, the less control Chaos had. "Hannah?" Dan asked. He walked toward Hannah and they hugged. Dan's eyes then snapped wide open and Chaos took control. He punched her and kicked her to the ground. "Nice try." Chaos' hands morphed into large swords, and he began stabbing the ground, attempting to hit Hannah. She created a wall of Ice and blocked one stab before jumping upward, kicking Chaos in his chest. She began to rapidly punch him, finally doing some visible damage. "What? How? Dan you persistent creep!" Jake, Kaje, Fate, Kaelyn, and Rose then joined in, rapidly hitting him all at once. When they stopped, Chaos fell to his knees. "I won't be so easy to knock down." Chaos coughed and was attacked again by Kaje. "What the… I'm gaining control again... Chaos… leave me be!" Dan screamed as he forced Chaos out of his body. Chaos, in demon form, glared at the seven.
"You mortals have done well. But its time I finish this!" Dan tossed the powder given to him by Fate onto Chaos, giving him physical form. "A… a body?" He asked. "N, no!" Chaos yelled. Dan punched Chaos' face and kicked his chest. Jake then followed in dragon form, by burning the demon. "Pain! I feel… pain!" Chaos said. "Its been so long… since I've felt pain… its so… inspiring!" Chaos copied Jake's attack ten-fold on the seven. "Pain fuels me, fools!" Dan yelled in pain as Chaos stabbed him in the arm.
"It ends here!" Dan yelled. He ripped Chaos' claw out of his arm and broke it in half.
"Lets leave this to Dan." Fate said. "We need to stop Chaos' minions before they begin helping their master!" Dan took every chance he had to harm Chaos, until he finally began to feel weak.
"You are strong Daniel… but you cannot defeat me… I am immortal!"
"Or so you think!" Dan punched Chaos' chest eye, making Chaos yelp in pain. Chaos' body began to become transparent as he morphed into a spirit again. "So it ends." Dan said. The others stopped fighting and Chaos' minions dropped their weapons, as Chaos, weak, re-inhabited Dan. "Now" the others began attacking Dan, who didn't put up any fight as he was slowly destroyed. "You're secret's out, Chaos… you can die… I'm taking you with me, demon!"
"NO! Fool… don't you fear death? Don't you fear what awaits you?"
"When will you learn, Chaos…" Dan said, falling to his knees as the relentless attacks ended. "I don't fear death… I embrace it!" Chaos was pushed out of Dan and shattered into millions of pieces, as did Dan.
"Dan is not dead... and neither in Chaos." Fate began. "They are in another plane of existence now, fighting for all eternity. Both of them can never die… but they can be trapped. Dan had to give up everything to do so, however. He truly made, the ultimate sacrifice." Chaos' minions and world shattered after Fate spoke. "The battle between good and evil will never end, no matter what enemy you eliminate. As long as mankind and all their greed and hatred remain in our universe, we will always be fighting. Until the end of time and beyond… this struggle will go on." Fate, Kaje, and the rest of the Council disappeared as the earth returned to the way it was before Chaos took control.
"Way to ruin a moment of celebration." Jake said, trying to cheer everyone up after the loss of a good friend. They all glared at him. "I'll shut-up now." He mumbled.
"Fate's right." Hannah said. "But we shouldn't give up. 'Evil' plays a big role in everything wicked today… even with him gone, evil will remain, but hopefully not as much. I mean our victory over Chaos was a great achievement. Not even the Council foresaw this."
"I agree." Rose said. "We should never give up hope, no matter how bad things get…"
"Its like in that old song from 2005: "Even when all your hope is gone, move along, just to make it through"."
"Oh yeah…" Hannah said. "I remember that one!"
"Uh, I'm from this millennium, so, WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT?" Kaelyn asked.
"Just oldies, I guess." Jake said, grinning.
End Chapter
Yeah, sorry, this took longer then I expected, and I was kinda rushing at the end, which would explain why it's sorta lame. Anyway, five chapters remain in part two, so, till next time.
