"All right," Crown says, her body repositioning itself to where she could jump if needed, "If I win, I take you to Aquarius. Alive, of course. If you win, I have to help you take out Ophiuca. Agreed?"
I nod and say, "Deal."
Crown smiles and says, "Then let's begin."
I can't remember any of the Battle Card names!
I look at Omega-Xis and murmur, "A little help hereā¦"
"Sword, LongSword, WideSword," Omega-Xis says quietly, "They're just a few, but I'll try and keep you on a variety of Battle Card data."
I nod and say, "Who goes first, Crown? You or me?"
"How about you?" Crown says with a smirk, "You can show me how your silly plan works."
"WideSword," I say, and a sword with a wide tip replaces Omega-Xis' head.
I leap towards Crown, the blade feeling strangely natural.
Crown dodges with ease, her eyes on the blade.
"HeatBall1," Omega-Xis' voice says, "Cannon, StikyRain1, and JumboHammer1."
Crown's orange ghost-creature becomes a sword, and she rushes towards me.
"HeatBall1," I say, and a little bomb-looking thing appears in my right hand.
I toss the bomb at Crown.
Crown tries to dodge, but fails and ends up in a cloud of smoke.
I jump onto my roof.
The feeling of my body turning physical nearly makes me miss Crown's next attack, the green ghost-creature soaring at me with its large hammer.
Crown lands on the house across the way, as I notice after countering the green ghost with my sword.
A crowd of humans has formed by now, watching the spectacle of Crown and MegaGirl fighting.
"FlickerKick1," Omega-Xis' voice says, "WoodLance1, and WideWave1."
I mutter a thanks before jumping to Crown's roof.
"Enough running, Crown," I say, "We'll finish you off with a sword fight."
"Foolish, foolish," Crown says in a singsong voice, "You forgot my last familiar."
What?
Darkness consumes me as I remember the purple "familiar".
