Grey fang snarled loudly and rushed forward with claws scrapping across the air, leaving visable trails of energy like cuts in the oxygen around them, he wasn't going to give Connor a chance to strike with his powerful fire element, but to his own surprise at his casting speed, enough to defend with it; Connor thrust his paws out then up with clenched fists, raising a wall of blazing flames in front of him, keeping Grey fang away from him.
"Damn it, a pyro elementist!" The demon snarled loudly and held his arms up to block his torso and head from the burning wall.
"That's right, Dumbass!" Connor laughed and clenched his fists tightly, fire roared from his finger tips and swirled around his paws. With a deep breath, Connor swung his hands toward his chest then launched them forward, sending the wall of flame forward as a blazing bullet towards Grey fang, watching it explode at his feet with a powerful blast of fire. Connor looked through the smoke and flames of which he conjured at Grey fang, observing to see if his opponent was still standing, or hopefully dead, but immediatly Connor was in horror, Grey Fang slowly stood from the pillar of flame and cracked his joints, his body was most definatly alive, unaffected by the flaming wall.
"You'll have to try harder then that child." Grey fang chuckled and padded his shoulder clean of ash.
Connor cracked his wrists loudly and growled, he wasn't about to be made a fool in front of those who were hoping that he'd be the ender of this demon's life, he swung his arms in a circular motion at his sides and released two flaming discs at Grey fang, they blazed over the air and collided with the demon with a loud explosive screech, hoping at such a sound would be the signal that it took effect on him, but as the cloud cleared, Conno'rs heart sank to see that Grey fang was still unharmed. Connor's flame manipulation skills were failing with each attack he could throw forward, he couldn't harm the beast of burden Grey fang with anything he could dish out, if he wanted any chance at saving corneria, he would have to use something more powerful than any of his other flame techniques.
"Ready to give up?" Grey fang grinned, he was toying with the fiery wolf now.
"Nope, just getting started." Connor returned with his own grin and cracked his knuckles, building up his energy inside his body.
Connor took in a deep breath and let his breath out gently into the center of his paws, forming a small orb of fire between them, slowly he lifted his arms up towards the sky then back down towards the ground and gave the orb a powerful thrust upwards, throwing the orb into the sky with his powerful arms, where it then flashed behind the blanket of clouds and turned the sky red, becoming something so destructive that if Connor fails to control it, it will destroy the whole city: a meteor storm!
"I'm trying something new now, and I know that it will harm you…I hope." Connor growled and tried not to let doubt delay him, he had to finish this battle, and he had to finish it now.
The meteors came flying down like falling boulders, carefully Connor motioned his paws to keep them controlled, keeping the meteors on the same target, but it was draining his power like crazy, the meteors required a lot of strength a lot of fire power, he would only have one shot at this and no more.
"Get ready, Grey fang." Connor growled lowly.
The meteors began to close in on each other, slowly melding together, their fire and their large form slowly uniting.
"For one hell of a ride, a fire spell I never thought I could even manage to conjure." Connor snarled, his arms were full of ache and pain.
The meteors flared and completed the merge with each other, taking shape as one gargantuan ball of fire with a colossal rock in the center dived down towards the planet, great enough to set a blaze to the whole planet if it were conjured by a master.
"HELL FIRE!" Connor roared to the heavens and slammed his paws down to the ground, ignoring the pain that drove into his palms. The colossal-sized meteor of unimaginable heat dove at Grey fang at a speed that the could break the sound barrier, unable to stop itself. Grey fang was terrified out of his mind now.
The meteor touched the ground and instantly let forth a powerful pair of shockwaves and tremors, breaking every window and glass in a 2000 mile radius and ripping up the ground to the sky and dropping it down back to the surface of the planet, crashing into Grey fang with unstoppable force, the explosion became a tower of wide inferno, Grey fang screamed loudly with pain and agony until his voiced was silenced out by the loud blaze of fire and breaking ground. Connor knew that he had won the fight, Grey fang was a powerful demon, and a werewolf, but a fire spell like that definitely made sure that he was dead.
"I did it…I controlled the most powerful fire manipulation there ever was…I wonder if I could use it again?" Connor panted and wiped the sweat away from his face.
"How about no." The demonic voice spoke out from the remains of the meteor's attack.
Connor looked forward slowly with fear, Grey fang clawed his way up the pit from which the meteor had crashed into him, he was harmed indeed, but barely.
"I really did not enjoy getting crushed by a huge burning rock." Grey fang growled at the wolf, who proceeded to dropping to his knees in defeat.
Connor couldn't believe that Grey Fang was still alive, a meteor was dropped upon him, how could he still be standing is what Connor was thinking, he dropped to his paws as well and shook his head, this wasn't happening, it couldn't be was all he could think of.
"Child…I am going to rip out your vocal cords, I am going to splatter your insides all over this city…which still how remains unharmed by that meteor…then I am going to skin you and leave your skinless, gutless corpse on the ground on which you stand!" Grey fang barked at him and flexed his muscles
Gray fang just shook his fur clean of ash with anger in his eyes and lunged at Connor with fury, claws extended far and ready to cleave him, but Kirin quickly slid between the two and smacked him away with the side of his Soul Edge as hard as he could, sending the demon flying backwards.
"Don't you touch him." Kirin growled and grasped his soul edge tightly
"Kirin!" Connor cried out with slight fury to have his thunder taken away.
"Sorry Connor, but I have to take things over now, you did your part, now I have to end it." Kirin explained and kept his focus on the demon.
Connor was filled with anger, but after seeing that his fire manipulation had no effect on Grey fang, he nodded slowly and ran off to help the others, knowing that it wasn't his fight to fight, it was Kirin's.
"It's just you and me Grey Fang." Kirin spoke and readied soul edge like a samurai.
"I can see that, well if your ready to die, my old host, then let us begin." Grey fang grinned and sharpened his claws against the ground.
Grey fang lunged wildly at Kirin, but was smacked again with a swift strike by the Soul Edge, Kirin possessed incredible reflexes just like his father, he wasn't going to be struck by an old demon that has now been long overdue for death.
"I can see that you have fast arms, I guess I'll just have to even the fight." Grey fang snarled at him and wiped the little trickle of blood away from his lip
Grey fang pointed his paw at the laying Ascalon and flicked his paw, it floated up and bolted to his paw, grasping it tightly, almost making his paw bleed. The two rapidly clashed their blades together in hopes of hitting each other, swiping and slashing and lunging, neither of them was going to get hit by the other as their speed matched each others as well as their swordsmanship skills. They brought their blades together with a spark filled clash, looking at each other with anger and hate, eye to eye.
"Grey Fang…you have no idea who your dealing with…I fought a hundred foot dinosaur named Syphon, I was five years old back then… and I won thatfight!" Kirin barked in his face and glowed the same white energy as he did when he was five.
Kirin shoved his blade forward with a powerful thrust, pushing Grey fang away from him, the two trying to catch their breath, Kirin just looked at Grey fang like nothing else mattered to him, the harmful environment, the scorching grass, nothing…just Grey fang. The two rushed at each other and swung their blades, a loud slash roared over them and they appeared on the opposite side where they were stood, back to back, just standing with silence as the scorching sound flowed over their ears, until Grey fang fell to his knees, holding his stomach of the cut he suffered that sputtered blood.
"I won back then…and I'm going to win this fight now." Kirin whisped and clenched Soul edge tightly.
Kirin suddenly stopped as he felt blood leave his body, slowly he looked down at his paw that grasped his stomach, and it was covered in the red liquid that was blood…his blood, he looked at his stomach slowly, and gazed upon the huge cut that was planted right into his flesh, bleeding hard down his form, but he had to end this struggle, he never thought of himself as weak and wasn't going to begin to, he walked over to Grey fang limping and placed his Soul Edge at Grey fangs neck.
"Say hello to Satan for me…you son of a bitch!" Kirin Barked with all his strength put into his arm, and within that minute, Kirin swung his Soul Edge upward, slicing Grey Fang's throat right open, the demon gagged and roared, his body blazing with black fire and slowly slipping into the air, vanishing without a trace. "Finally…it's over."
Kirin breathed heavily, then fell to the floor, unconscious from blood loss; Corneria was finally safe from the demon, everyone was saved, some were killed while Grey fang lived, but they died as soldiers, ones who fought for their country, their home, and their planet. Kirin was the special soldier, he was Gods soldier.
Kirin's house
Kirin slowly awoke again, a huge bandage was wrapped around his shoulder to his waist, he could still feel the pain from the scar, it was agonizing, but it was a relief to feel it, he knew that he wasn't dead but very much alive.
"Welcome back Kirin." A few voices spoke from the room that he laid in, catching his attention quickly.
Kirin sat up from the now visible couch and looked at everyone, almost the whole town was there to congratulate him on saving Corneria, he smiled and held his paw up, signaling them for their needed silence so that he could speak.
"Thank you all, but I'm not the only one to thank here, my friends Pierce, Pinza, Lazlo, and Connor are also to thank for the defeat of the demon, they basically saved me from dying, they fought against Grey fang…they are like family to me…just like my father." Kirin announced and smiled.
Fox smiled and sat down beside Kirin, gently embracing him like a father would, his son asked for forgiveness in the past, and now he was paying his debt to him, welcoming him with everything he earned.
The party began with a loud "Hurrah" For the victory of the mccloud family, the moon shined down on their home with heavenly light, upon the hill that hovered over their home stood a black robed figure, the sheathe in his rope-like belt shined brightly with a crimson glow, the hexagon shaped neck of his sword glowed at the edges with soft rubies, his paw slowly clenched the hilt.
"In time, Kirin mccloud, our pathes will cross each others." The figure spoke softly, the wind blowing across his muzzle.
Gently the wind blew off his hood, the figure was a complete copy of Kirin's image although his fur was more pale and his hair was in a long pony tail.
"Soon...we shall cross pathes, my brother."
