Chapter 6: Shed the Light part 2: Blinding Light.
Izumi got out of the shower, her body suddenly cold due to her quickly getting out of the misty stall. She gathered her clothes that were scattered on the floor. She smelled them and soon felt like she was about to gag. After only just two days of wearing them, they stank of blood along with sweat and oil. She felt the claw wound on her back, which she had gotten from the wolf a while back. It didn't hurt any more but the skin around the scars felt rough and scabby. She realized that she did it to save Takuya.
"Maybe Roki was right." She thought. "Maybe I do like Takuya."
She then put on the robe she took from the table. To her skin, it felt as soft and smooth like silk. She walked towards her room with the basket of her dirty clothes. She noticed Roki wasn't in the room but to her surprise, her cell phone was still on the bed. She shrugged it off as she thought she was probably at the ballroom. She walked towards the balcony, the cold air sending chills in her spine. She noticed an owl in the background. The owl then moved toward Izumi. It had a small yellow collar on its leg and had white and brown feathers. It was Izumi's pet owl, Yume.
"Yume, where've you been girl? I missed you." She said as she had a smile. Yume was leering with her giant yellow eyes at the wall near the door. She knew something was there.
Takuya and Tommy took out their D-Tectors and they glowed brightly. Instead of two rings engulfing them, one giant one took its place. They soon became Sonic and Tails, much to M-14's delight.
"So you two are the spirits' holders, eh? Now, show me what you can do with them." M-14 charged at Sonic at high speed, both his blades, ready to strike. Sonic took his sword from the gauntlet and stopped both blades from hitting him. They were inches away from his face and kept getting closer. He tried kick M-14 off of him, but his leg went right through the cloak. M-14 just laughed and pushed Sonic into the wall, where everyone else was.
As Gear and Roki tried to help Sonic up, Tails and Emerl both made their hands into cannons. Two cannon blasts were fired and coming towards M-14. He smirked and cut through both of them with ease. His blade didn't even have a single scratch from the blasts.
"Is this all that you can do? The models before me must be really weak." He said as shadows surrounded the blades and looked at Sonic. "Well then let's see what you're really made of. SHADOW STRINGS!" The shadows from the blades were then surrounding Sonic and wrapped around him, squeezing him tightly.
Sonic was screaming in pain as the constricting shadows were crushing his body. Blood was trickling down his mouth and nose. Tails kept firing the cannons, but they still didn't have any effect on the Ghost Mech. M-14 just laughed evilly has more shadows emerged from the ground and constricted everyone else in the room.
"This is great. I'll be the one to kill the group that defies Lord Metallic. He will be pleased of my work." M-14 was laughing evilly, this time he had a hint of craziness. "So much for you brats stopping me."
Izumi was looking at the balcony with Yume. The thing that was stalking her from the bathroom materialized as a robotic crow-like creature. On the wings were razor sharp feathers along with missiles. On the talons and claws were blades that were very small, but still can do the job for killing someone. It walked closer to Izumi while her back was turned. As it got closer to her, it raised a blade and readied itself to strike, but Yume started pecking at the machine's face.
"Damn it! You stupid vermin! Get the hell off me!" It yelled as it punched Yume off of it into a wall. Izumi then noticed the machine and ran towards Yume, not before getting her cell phone. The mech slowly advanced towards Izumi. "Don't worry little girl. This won't hurt a bit. It's going to hurt a lot." The machine's hand became a drill.
Soon, a pink orb appeared from the chandelier and blocked the drill from getting any closer to Izumi and Yume. The power of the orb was stronger than the machine itself and repelled it to the balcony. The orb then absorbed itself into Izumi's cell phone and it was glowing bright pink. The glow died down and in place of her cell phone was a pink and lavender D-Tector.
"Spirit of light recognized. Spirit Evolution…activated!" The D-Tector stated as a giant glow surrounded Izumi and Yume. As the glow died down, a pink hedgehog was standing in her place. She wore a red and white minidress with red high-heeled boots. She held a katana in her left hand and a holder filled with blank cards on the right. Her eyes were different, one eye was emerald green and the other one was blood red. Yume stayed as her normal self and flew to the hedgehog's shoulder. The crow machine got up and looked at the hedgehog.
"So Amy Rose came to shed some light to this dark mansion. Well now I get to kill a spirit!" The machine charged at Amy with the drill, but the drill was instantly blocked by the metal part of the katana. It revealed on the blade was a white jewel shard that was glowing brightly. The shadows were being repelled from the machine and it was becoming weaker. "What is this? This isn't happening! Not one damn bit!"
"Whoa. Now I know how Takuya and Tommy felt when they turned into those people." Amy stated as she noticed a glow on her katana. She unsheathed it and it shined brightly, sucking all the shadows from the room. The crow now was at its weakest point now that it's source for power has been cut off. It was really weak and was wheezing.
"You…bitch. Now…I'm…going to. KILL YOU!" the crow machine spun its drill at full power and charged at Amy, only for her to dodge it with ease and cut off the arm. Oil spilled the floor and was spraying everywhere in the room and some even got on Amy. "No! Why me?! I can't lose like this!"
Amy just smirked as she ran towards M-15. "SAVIOR'S STRIKE!" The katana started to glow white and slashed right through the machine. As it fell to the ground, the upper half separated from the lower part and both fell to the floor with oil seeping out of the cut mark. Yume watched the whole fight and her eyes widened.
" I never expected such a small blade do this damage." She said, as Amy looked at Yume in complete surprise. Her voice was soft and fair, almost sounding exactly like a real person.
"Yume. You can talk. How are you even able to talk?"
"Well I can't explain it, but it had to do with that bright light. Maybe it's…" Yume then sensed the presence of darkness in the castle. "Well I don't have time to explain this predicament. We have trouble downstairs." Amy nodded and ran down the stairs and found a door covered in shadows. It was really thick and had the crude smell of smoke. As she put her hand towards the doorknob, the shadows surrounding the door quickly escaped from the door into the room.
As she opened the door, Amy noticed the horrific sight of everyone being strangled by the shadows that were connected to M-14. He had a sadistic smirk on his face after seeing the sight of Amy and Yume.
"So you two come here to ruin my fun? So be it." He moved his hands in front of Amy and a giant shadow ball was fired, hitting her directly in the chest. She held her chest and struggled to stand up. She took one of the blank cards from her glove and it broke into hundreds of pieces. "Spell # 1 BLINDIMG LIGHT!" the room then shined a bright light, destroying the shadows wrapped around her friends' necks. Sonic and Tails got up and looked at M-14. The light had little effect on him physically, but he was mentally unstable now.
He charged at Tails with rapid speed and punched him in the chin with heavy force. Tails then flew up and hit his head against the ceiling, his head going right through it. Sonic ran at the ghost, but to no avail as he punched Sonic in the stomach, not only dropping the sword, but also knocking him into the ground with the wind knocked out of him. All that was left standing was Amy. M-14 stared at her with a sadistic look. He took out a blade in his sleeve and laughed crazily. The blade soon was surrounded with a black aura, shrouding the steel blade in thick shadows. Amy drew her katana from it's sheathe and held the sword backwards. M-14 smiled evilly as he saw the sword position.
"If you have what it takes, then bring it on, you pink rat."
