Final Grander F.G.

Bonds of rivals

Mark had that crazy look in his eyes, it looked as though he wanted to kill me. He told me before, my sister kissed him, making his deepest fear and desire to come out. It wasn't his fault that he was acting crazy, I knew what I had to do, in order to save him, I needed to defeat him. The bell soon rang, as Mark charged me, he swung his stick at me, and I blocked it with my wooden sword, and then kicked him away, he staggered a bit, but charged me again, I blocked all his attacks, but he kept launching them. He soon clashed with me again and looked at me in the eye. "The demon child prodigy, the only person who controls twilight, the only human being able to brake the demon barrier keeping all demons in the demon realm, your sister speaks highly of you. Even though I don't see it at all!" Mark soon pushed me, I shifted my weight so I would stop, I then shot my demon arm at him, he knocked away from him, and charged me, I retracted my arm, and blocked again. "That girl you call my sister, she cant be real that would be impossible."

"Why is that? She looked pretty real to me." I gripped my sword, and closed my eyes, trying not to cry.

"Because I'm the one who killed her." I was sad when I said that, I ended up killing her, because my demon side took control of me. I looked at Mark with a determined glare, and charged him, lightning started to form around my had, as I locked my sword and his stick together. "Black Lightning." Soon a blast of black lightning shot from my demon hand, and hit Mark. He flew back some, but managed to land back on the stage. He brushed the dust off his shirt, and grinned at me. "Not bad, that one almost hurt some, almost." He planted his feet on the ground and rushed at me like a missile, this time he hit me in the side, I could feel a sharp pain in my side as he kicked me away. I feel down hard, I tried to get up, but it was hard, it felt as though he broke a few of my ribs, I was coughing up some blood, and I even had a hard time hearing correctly. Kazumi already started her 10 count. "5, 6, 7, 8, 9..." I soon got back up, I gripped my side, and kept my eye on Mark. "We are similar I will say that. That's kind of the reason I like fighting you Ko." He rushed me again attacking me, I had a harder time guarding myself from his onslaught of attacks, he kept aiming for my side. He also started to attack me with his fist, he punched me in the face when I was off balance. I started to fall allot more then I wanted to. "Come on Ko, don't let this guy beat you! Honestly you will make me look like a fool if you do!" I heard Evangeline's words, and stayed on my feat.

"If you say so my lady." I was joking when I said that, but I could see a small blush on her face, she looked away, as I smiled. I then turned to Mark, I held up my demon arm, and I took off the seal. "Now its my turn to cause some hurt to you Mark." I released my demon arm, and some of the darkness started to flow inside my body, I only had a few minutes before it tried to take over my body. My skin turned pitch black, and red armor started to appear on me, I looked like the same demon that killed my father, I looked at Mark, and rushed him, I then kicked him away. I quickly got behind him, and tail wiped him up, once he was in the air, I rushed him, and started to bounce him back and forth with violent attacks. Finally, I grabbed him by the neck, and slammed him into the ring, I held him, and soon my demonic face started to get closer to his, my teeth were sharper then any blade, every time they touched his face, a cut would appear instantly. Mark smiled some, he soon started to laugh. "Excellent, just as she said, you are a strong one, I can see why she wants you." Mark soon kicked me off, and started to attack me with his stick, I was able to dodge his attacks fairly easily, and I countered with a swing of my demon arm, cutting him some, but it didn't seem to phase him, as he kept attacking. His attacks were fierce and swift, he was like a machine, he didn't seem to let up, no matter how much I was able to cut him. His face started to bleed all over, but he kept smiling, and kept attacking, I didn't know how long he could keep it up. I soon blocked his attack and punched him away, he skipped across the ring like a rock skipping in water. He then got his balance, and came to a stop right on the edge of the ring. He looked at me with a creepy smile, and a blood lustful stare. "This is getting fun, I may be force to go all out on you, just so I can survive." He licked some of the blood off his face, as he charged me again, this time his attacks seemed to be in combos, as he almost managed to hit my legs, after fainting with a strike to my head. I jumped back, and growled at him.

"Your starting to annoy me, your also in danger, your losing to much blood, there is no way you can survive to long without any treatment."

"Why don't you shut up and fight me! I don't feel anything, I don't care if I die, I will kill you first!" He charged me again, his body all bloody, I had a hard time figuring out, how he could even stand with all those wounds on his body. He looked to be running slower then normal, he jumped over me and landed behind me. I turned to strike him, my arm went right threw him, like it was a ghost or something. I stood there shocked for a second, until, a sharp spike was rammed threw my chest. The sharp pain went threw my head, as I feel to my knees. He was behind me, with a strange gauntlet on with a blade coming from the back, curving around his elbow. However, it was only a trick to make me thing as though a blade was sent threw my chest. Illusion or not, it felt real, the armor on me went back to my arm, and the blackness that was on me also went back to my arm. I was back to normal, as Mark limped to me, with his stick in his hand. He was just as week as I was, he was panting hardly, and could hardly stand up. He stopped for a second, and looked at the sky. "I don't want to die yet, I still have allot to do, I promised someone, I would take them on a date, I promised myself, I would actually clean my shop, and eat my body weight in rice. I also want to beat you Ko, weather or not your sister cursed me, I always wanted to beat you, you managed to make friends with someone I loved." Mark smiled some, soon his shadow started to take the shape of him, and then wrapped itself around his arm and stick. He open his eyes, and looked at me. "Come on Ko, I know you still have plenty of energy left, were far from done, I will beat you in front of her, she is here right now, but I doubt she can be seen by any of us." He took a Kariki stance, He held the sword over-handed with both hands, and bended his knees to a low angle. His shadow was wrapped around him, like it was to keep his balance. I smiled some and got up, I looked at him, and grabbed my wooden sword, and held it reversely. It was behind my back instead of in front of me, my back knee was bent, and my demon hand was open and in front of me. "Fine then Mark, if you want a fight to the finish, I will meet you half way. We are rivals, it would seem, and once I beat you, I will save you, but I hope we can stay rivals. You are actually fun to fight." Soon our aura started to spark up some, but it was only around our body now, instead of around the stage, we were both tired and weaken, this was really going to be a test for me, I have hardly fought with only reserved aura energy. My red aura started to become visible, and it started to show in my eyes, Marks Blue aura also became visible and showed in his eyes. Evangeline slammed her hands on the rails, and looked worried. "How reckless can you two morons be! Your willing to use your life force to finish this fight? Ko I wont forgive you if you die!" Sanlee was sitting on the roof of the side lines smiling and laughing some.

"To be young again, I never thought Mark would get this serious fighting anyone, it seems Ko has really encouraged him ti live, I thank you for that, now it seems your about to die this time Ko, hope you meet your sister in the other world." We charged each other again, I couldn't feel the pain I had anymore, it was like I was fighting fresh, however I knew I was doing something extremely dangerous, it was to late to back down now though.

The battle between power hungry Ko, and insainly durable Mark, has finally begin. Who will be shown up, and who will show down? who will be top dog, and who is just a whinny B***h? well as you can clearly see, Mark has allot of endurance he was able to survive most of Ko's attacks, and Ko has gotten allot stronger. I hope they both survive, they are going to be great friends one day. Like I said, I was going to try and make this a few chapters long, I need to make more suspense for you all. I hope its to your liking, and I hope you all review and comment on any ideas. Anyone? come on I feel like one of those homeless people in D.C begging for money, except the money is ideas. please review
