...
The battle started off with Sebastian throwing dining knives towards Jack. With the demonic claws, Jack was able to repel all of them. Right after he finished, he quickly flew towards Sebastian, ready to stab him using his sharp claws. The latter just kept on wearing his expressionless face, and a second later, he had a cynical smile on his face.
Jack was distracted, and suddenly, flurry of thunder attacked him, which made him got knocked onto the wall, and fell down. It seemed as England was able to create a lot of magic circles.
Using this chance, Russia readied his iron pipe, and took the first advantage to attack Jack. However, the latter was able to realize this faster than anticipated, so he blocked Russia's attack.
Jack quickly twisted his hand, and grabbed Russia's iron pipe, and threw him towards the other side of the wall. Russia only made an "oh" looking face, as he hit the wall.
...
Meanwhile, Japan was busy fighting his doppelganger. As usual, both sides kept on blocking and attacking each other. During one block, Japan used this initiative to spin his left leg, and kicked the foe aside, quite hard. The foe fell to the floor, having a hard hit on him.
...
England created another magic circle and this time, it blurted out a flurry of flame, directly towards Jack. The latter didn't evade, but he grabbed the floor, and took out a part of it to block the flame.
After the flame subsided, he threw the floor piece towards England, and with his demonic power, Russia destroyed the giant piece to little parts without any trouble.
"England, stay on the back line. We'll make sure you have enough time to create more magics." Russia suggested.
"Shut up. I don't take orders from anyone. Though... I have to agree with you this time."
"You'd better be~ Ufu~"
After that short conversation, Russia dashed towards Jack, and England stepped aback, to prepare another magic. He knew well that if he engaged Jack in close combat, he'll only get in the way, since Japan had engaged his doppelganger in a close combat, and Russia too. Sure, Sebastian is a long-ranged, using those knives, but in this situation, it's better to take the safe way. Or so England thought.
Despite having to fight a lot of enemies, Jack didn't seem to have any problems. Russia and Sebastian blasted through the floor part that Jack held and attacked him at the same time, dealing twice the damage towards the foe.
Jack fell onto the ground, and when he's about to stand up, Sebastian had already behind him.
However, this time was quite different from the last. Instead of getting attacked, Jack used his wings to fly and thus, evading Sebastian's prompted attack.
"Looks like I'm in quite a disadvantage here."...so he said as he landed on a small pillar on that rooftop.
...
Jack stretched his hand a bit, and suddenly, flurry of black energy piled up on his hand. England, who was an expert in black magics, could feel an enormous dark feeling inside that dark ball.
"Let's see how we can handle this."
...
.~.~.~.~.~.~.
...
Then, Jack crushed the ball with his hand. A second later, suddenly numerous of black pillars came out from the ground. Not only that, those were not your ordinary black pillars. They were filled with dark energy and thus, could hurt a lot when they hit.
They came out in a randomized time, so no one could exactly predict when or where they will come right at them. Since Jack was flying, he didn't have to worry about those pillars. Also, since the fake Japan wouldn't die as long as the creator lives, he didn't worry about the demonic Japan too.
In other words, the only ones that needed to be worried, were the enemies themselves.
...
The team members were busy evading and attacking at the same time. Sebastian brought Ciel to another part of the hall, so he could stay unharmed.
Jack just stayed, floating in the air, as he stretched his wings to prepare another attack. Judging by his pose, Russia noticed immediately that Jack was planning to dive and attacked them in their disadvantages.
And what do you know? It's true.
...
.~.~.~.~.~.~.
...
Jack dived really fast and sped up in an alarming rate. He evaded every single pillars that emerged, and used his dragon claws to grab England in the neck. He's planning to strangle him.
Of course, he wouldn't want that. He struggled as hard as he could, but Jack's grip had a great power in it.
Japan and Russia did worry, but they had more important things to be worried about.
Jack bumped and cornered England towards a wall, as he held his neck with his dragon claws.
"This is pretty interesting... you know? I can't believe that there exists personifications like you."
"That is something I... wonder as well."
"Should I rewrite the history... Will it start from the personification itself?"
"Heh... Who knows? Why don't you try?"
...
The challenging sentence from England's mouth excited Jack's expression. When he was strangling England further, the latter, unexpectedly, smiled a little.
"...Gotcha."
...
Without he realized it, there's a magic circle under Jack's feet. He was startled, and looked down. Using a hand gesture, England activated the magic, and suddenly, thorns came out from the floor, and stabbed Jack all over his body.
When that happens, the black pillars stopped coming.
...
.~.~.~.~.~.~.
...
The team could feel water drips came from the sky. When they felt it, it was no water. It was deep red, rain of blood. It bloodstained the floor, the thorns that England created, and also their clothes.
"...It smells like a demon." Russia gave his usual smile.
...
However, it didn't end in that event. Jack fell from the attack, and he hit the ground. When they relaxed for a second, the next thing they knew is that the foe suddenly stood up. The team quickly distanced themselves and raised their guard.
Blood was still coming out from Jack's wounds. However, the wounds healed themselves. In the next second, Jack's wounds have been recovered. However, it seemed that his wings haven't healed fully yet.
"The wounds... they've healed already!?" England was shocked, as he tried to breath from Jack's strangling earlier.
"Damn... they hurt a lot..." Jack took a look at his wounds, which had been healed.
...
"A demon won't be defeated that easily. Their wounds can heal fast, and maybe even faster than you all." Sebastian gave Jack a cold look.
"By "you all", I supposed you directed it towards us, nations?" Russia asked Sebastian.
"No normal humans are able to do it."
"Hmm~ I get the point."
"Still, defeating us would be a tough job, even for a demon."
"Then... All we have to do is to keep dealing damage, until he's good as a dead meat~"
...
.~.~.~.~.~.~.
...
"So, let's begin again." Jack was getting excited.
...
Then, Jack stretched his hand towards the fake Japan. The latter stopped fighting with Japan and looked at Jack. As soon as he stopped, he quickly sheathed his sword, and ran towards his creator.
Jack put his hand on the fake's head, and suddenly, the latter turned into something dark, like a shadow. He turned into something intangible. Then, a few seconds later, the shadow blanketed Jack and disappeared slowly, as if being absorbed by the winged demon.
The team could only look in astonishment.
After the absorption, Jack's appearance changed again. His wings changed into a pair of giant, bat wings. He had a black, evil-looking mask, with only white eyes, on his face. His usual down hair, became spiky and changed color into gold. He wore a pair of long, brown boots. His butler suit changed into a long, brown trench jacket. Small fangs started to appear on his teeth.
"No mercy this time..." Jack's voice changed into a heavier, deeper voice. It also had an evil feel to it.
Every members became astonished. It's already hard to defeat Jack in his normal form. Now they got a new "friend" to play with? Will this nightmare ever last?
...
Jack lifted his hand to the sky, and then he slammed it onto the ground. In a blink of an eye, the floor cracked and crumbled down to the floor below. All of them bumped onto the lower floor, and without anyone realized it, Jack had already choked England to the ground. The latter tried to move his hands in order to create another magic circle, but that just won't cut it. Jack's dark power was too powerful. The same tricks won't do.
"Just look how pathetic you are... Unable to do anything..."
Jack tried to torment England. However, the latter was too busy finding a way to be free.
The next thing happened, was a wind of slashes ran towards Jack and blasted him onto a wall. When England saw that Jack was not holding him again, he sat down and started to inhale, in order to get his breath.
The team members quickly approached England.
"Mr. England! Are you okay!?" Japan was worried. England could sense a care in those intonations.
"Y-yeah... I'm okay..."
...
However, when they turned to look at Jack, he wasn't there.
In a blink of an eye, he suddenly appeared in front of the team and used his left hand to strike again. Japan tried to block it, but the block was repelled and Jack threw him to the other side of the wall.
"Japan!"
...
Jack showed his fangs towards the enemy.
Sebastian threw few knives at him, but every single of them were blocked by Jack's hand armor.
"I don't even know how a pathetic nation like you exists..."
"Just shut the bloody hell up!"
England took his sword, and started to swing towards Jack, but the latter jumped backwards and thus, evading the attack.
"Let's see now... What kind of surprise I should give you...?"
"Just stay there and be killed!"
The quartet launched a full-fledged attack at him. But those attacks didn't have a single impact. Jack unleashed a flurry wind and blew over the quartet. Everyone except Sebastian fell down to the ground.
However, only England would continue to stand up and fight. The other members was tired.
He ran towards Jack and quickly prepared a magic circle in front of him. As one would expect, Jack used his hand armor to guard himself. But, there's no impact whatsoever on the armor. He didn't feel anything. When he lowered his hand armor, he realized that there was no attack coming out. The magic circle was just a bluff.
Jack looked down, and he saw England, with his sword ready. The evil didn't have time to guard, and thus, creating a chance for England to damage him. He swung his sword, and slashed the black mask. The latter quickly stepped backwards and covered his face with his arms.
After that attack, there's a moment of silence.
...
.~.~.~.~.~.~.
...
Jack slowly lowered his arms, and the moonlight revealed his face which was hidden behind the mask. Once it was revealed, the whole party member, especially Japan and England, was utterly shocked.
He wore a pair of glasses, and his most notable characteristic: a dusty, blonde hair with an ahoge sticking out.
What shocked them even more, the eyes were not Prussian blue.
But a vivid, light blue eyes. The same eyes like that person.
...
"It's been a long while, huh? England? Everyone?"
...
His rough voice ruined it all. However...
...
"This is not going to be easy..." Sebastian commented.
...
"You... No way! This is just impossible!" England was in utter shock.
And it's true. It's just plain impossible.
...
Author's note:
Hey, guys! Finally catching up with the plot... This is chapter 25! Whew... This is ALL about battles, and I don't know if I managed to write it in detail enough to make you all understand... I was writing this while reading another fanfic which I FREAKING love it.
Oh, and about my injuries on the other day I told you... doesn't heal at all! It's getting worse, as far as I can tell. I just got treated today, but it's just a simple treatment, so I don't know if this is really going to work...
Lately, my school have been focusing on passing the National Exam next year. Well, I'm a 12th grader, so it was to be expected. I just need to study hard and hope I don't fail.
Alright, back on topic. I already planned the ending, and I hope you like it! It will contain a little USUK moments, but no yaoi, I think.
Happy reading, and please review!
