III – III

Berserk Fury

Yang slammed his fist into Yin/Jake's face, changing sides each hit. Yin struggled to break free, but when he did, he kicked the ground, attempting to hit Yang. Unfortunately, Yang had taken flight and blasted the two with a black fireball. "He's getting stronger…" Yin's voice began.

"While we get weaker." Jake's voice finished. "We can't let him drain us!" The image if Yin's face in Jake's mind nodded as Jake thrust his hand forward, a beam of lighting shooting out of his hand and through Yang's chest.

"Brother, no!" Yin called. Yang kicked his brother into the ground and grinned.

Yin/Jake snapped back to reality as Yang was forced out of his Dragon form. "I… I can't change back!" Yang called.

"I killed your dragon half. You can never change back."

"Well, brother, if that's how you wanted to play, you should have told me!" Six orbs surrounded Yang and encased his body with a black light. Yang's true form was about to be revealed… what the son of The Darkness was finally about to enter the world. Yang's skin began to rot and a long black cloak appeared over his body, encasing his face in the blackest shadows you can imagine. His hands were now nothing more then bones, and the fingertips were sharper then needles. "How long has it been… how long?" Yang asked. "How long has it been since I've had a chance as perfect as this! The world is so corrupted that they actually accept me! My power is at its peak… all this hatred… this anger… this greed…!"

"Jake… he's coming… The Darkness…!" Yin's voice echoed in Jake's head.

"So this is the mighty 'The Darkness,'" Jake said, looking at Yang.

"True, I have borrowed its form, but trust me, I am not as forgiving as that denizen of the night." A large scythe appeared, with a skeleton gripping onto the edge, a frightened look on its face. "Pathetic fool. This is no longer yours!" The skeleton vaporized and yang lunged forward, swinging his large scythe. Jake ducked and dodged the attack but wasn't counting on Yang's speed. Yang turned Yin/Jake's head toward his hidden face and punched it repeatedly. "Burn." Yang kicked Jake onto a crack in the floor. At Yang's command, a burst of fire rose up and began burning Jake. He screamed in pain,. But Yang showed no mercy. He dashed forward and kicked Jake to the ground. "Well isn't this familiar." Yang said. "Looks like no matter what timeline we exist within, I am superior!" Yang crushed Yin/Jake's body, but realized it was only a copy. "No!"

"AAAHHH!!!" Jake yelled as he flew through the air and punched Yang's face. "Bone…!" He said. Yang's hood was removed and his skeletal face was revealed. There were many deep cuts and a few puncture wounds, and half his jaw was hidden in shadow. He had a small red eye in his left eye-socket, but his right was missing (imagine Slade's face, only 10x more demonic).

"Yes. Evil takes its toll, Jake, Yin. The Darkness was a being of just that… the darkness. He was corrupted from creation, and wished for nothing more then power and destruction. He gained immortality… but everything has its own little price to be paid." Yang laughed. "And by copying his physical form as my own, I too had to pay that price."

"Look how far gone you are, brother! How could you let this happen? We were heroes!"

"No, YOU were a hero! YOU were the one everyone loved! Mother only loved YOU! You, you, you, you YOU!! Not anymore! Now I'll show you who's the greatest!"

"Has your pride really led to this, brother? Did your greed consume you? You should have said something… we could have talked about it, and stopped all of this! You never would've been called a demon!"

"Too late, Yin! Its over now, for this world, and all who inhabit it!" Yang spun around and attacked Yin with balls of fire and ice, as well as a few gusts of wind and attacks by large stones. "You just had to steal the spotlight! You just had to be Mr. Goody-two-shoes!"

"Yang! Why? We're brothers! Your greed and pride never should have led to this! I could have helped you!"

"No… even if you did, you'd still be the hero, wouldn't you!? I will kill you! I will make sure you and your acts of 'kindness' are erased, forever!"

"Yang!!!"

"Yin!!!" The brothers' fists collided and obliterated the entire battlefield with a blast of immense energy. Holy verse Unholy, Light verse Dark, the battle to end all battles. "You! Will! DIE!" Yang clawed and punched Yin with anger, unleashing several blasts of energy with each strike. The entire underworld was fading away with such immense powers colliding with so much hate and disgust.

"I won't allow this to go any farther! It ends now, forevermore!" Yin said. "I don't want to hurt you brother, but I will if needed!"

"Bring it, then, brother. Show me! What can the great 'hero' do?"

"AAAHHH!!" Yin cried as he dashed forward.
