No flames, please review. ENjoy. I own Tenpi and Tsuki. I rushed this...sorry...
Chapter 9 - Me vs. Me
The real battle was about to begin in my world. The one against myself.
I stared at him. I greeted him with a bitter smile, "Why how long has it been…Tenpi."
"Tsuki, darling! It has been awhile!" He grinned with his bright white and yellow hair. His eyes were bright orange. He said 'darling' like 'dahrleng'.
"I cant say it's a pleasure to see you again," I glared at him, I knew how my eyes looked like. They shone as grey black in the moonlit night, reflecting whatever I saw gently. I narrowed my eyes on Tenpi.
"W-who is he?" Horohoro shivered, Tenpi resonated fear even without him knowing. The air around us grew colder and the atmosphere grew darker. It was Tenpi's effect on anybody except me it was deep fear. The demons of your hate and nightmares…
He grinned at me, "Aren't you gonna tell them?"
"He's my…twin," I said, "He's just Tenpi…meaning Sun."
"Your twin brother?" my friends gawked at me.
"He's pretty much like me…he's part of me…" I sadly told them.
My twin just gave a laugh, "I'm her dark side…and she isn't what she seems, you may think you know her but she isn't what she may seem."
"Shut up! I didn't lie to them! They…they are different…unlike the others…they're precious to me…" I yelled at him then faced my friends, "The only thing I did lie to you guys was…my name. Tsuki is right but…it's not Hanone Tsuki…its…Shizuku Tsuki."
"Moon Drop" Ren said.
"Today is the day you die, Tenpi," I walked towards my twin he followed my lead and walked toward me.
"If I die, you die too, remember?" Tenpi mocked me. He always had a way to piss me off.
"Little sacrifice to get rid of you," I closed my heart, masking my emotions…Ren…
"Tsuki! Don't do it!! There must be another way!" Chocolove yelled.
"It's destiny," I smiled sadly at my friends and lowering my eyes I turned my glance at Tenpi.
"It is not destiny and you know it. There is always a way to change it," Ren put his hand on my shoulder.
I raised my eyebrows, "So explain death. It's almost like humans, animals, and every living thing is waiting to die when they are alive. Explain that Ren!" I calmed myself down, "Ren…I'm bound to die someday anyway…and if sacrificing my life to keep peace in the worlds then so be it."
"Don't worry…she'll be the one to die…since I know a way to eliminate her without losing myself!" Tenpi threw his head up and laughed.
I smirked at him…silly fool. "Like I know one too…"
My twin stopped there, "What?! Then…I'll just have to destroy you first!" He lunged at me and I jumped over him.
"Patience…oh never mind! Let's get this show on the road!" I narrowed my eyes on him and stood up straight. "Rise Hong Long!" I shouted out and reached out and grabbed the blazing red sword that had materialized in front of me.
"W-what?" Ryu gaped.
"Hong Long…Red dragon," Ren translated.
I nodded, "This is the day you'll bother us last." I held my hand up and Jirina in a spirit ball form showed in it. "Nyagh!" I screamed out and fused Jirina into my sword. Hong Long turned purplish. I traced my finger on it and a black mark formed as I traced it. I glared at my twin brother he would perish today! "Death arts, soul reaper style, funeral of the doppelganger" I grinned as my sword turned into a scythe covered in blood. Ghosts and ghouls crowed around it, mourning. I closed my eyes and began the chant:
One for the unwanted
Two for the unborn
Three for the dead
Four for the living
Five for what's precious
Six for the blood that flows through my veins
Seven for my love
Eight for the Stars
Nine for the string that's wrapped around this finger
Ten for my companions
Eleven for my soul
Twelve for the scars on my heart
Thirteen for the days I was living
Fourteen for the seas of tears
Fifteen for the sacrifices
Sixteen for the agony
Seventeen for every rain that dropped
Eighteen for Mother Nature
Nineteen for the lovely earth
Twenty for The devil
Twenty-one for our God
Twenty-two for the clock that ticks
Twenty-three for the second last sand that drops
AND TWENTY-FOUR FOR THE FUNERAL OF THE DOPPELGANGER!
I the power rise in me. I opened my eyes and I knew how they looked, I was in a trance. My eyes were white. I jumped up high and landed in front of Tenpi who looked surprised and frightened. I began to speak in my clans' language.
R3w0p -// 3f!L // D00LB R4T5 ?'/'?'/' HT43) !!!!!!!
It sounded like gibberish to anyone else but my clans' people. I dug the scythe unto my twin, no blood splattered out. The scythe looked translucent as it went in. It came out with his soul and I held it in my hands. A translucent tombstone with 'TENPI' on it appeared. I chanted again:
As long as I shall have this sword by my side
May this horrible soul of my twin
Be bound to this tombstone
For eternity to come
As long as Hong Long stays with me
May this vow and spell be
Let this doppelganger of me
Live in regret and nightmares
And never ever haunt me again
I heard Tenpi scream and scream. The tombstone faded and I felt the power leave me. My sword turned back to it's normal form and I fell to the ground…he was gone…for now.
