(Outburst)
(Between the realms of "The World": White Room)
Aura was scanning a dormant A. Kite for any problems, viruses, etc.........but found none. This really puzzles her to no end. What could have cause her knight to go mad like that. " Oh A. Kite what could be wrong with you?" But her answer didn't lie in his programming but in his emotions. And A. Kite was going to defend them with all his might.
( Shicksal headquarters)
Metronome was currently in front of the monitor receiving incoming data. A small piece of information caught her interest.
" Hm. Very interesting." she said to no one.
" What is?" a voice said from the dark.
Metronome, however, wasn't face " The data a receive has a weak signal. If this is corrected the signal has the same pattern as one of the items of the waves. It's pretty weak so its no where near activation. However, there is another signal becoming stronger by the second. What would you do Fluegel.?" asked toward her boss.
" I'll send one of the other members to get the one thats about to get activated. I will trust you to find the one thats emitting the weak signal. Let us kill two birds wit one stone." Fluegel said.
" It shall be done." she rose slowly before walking to her destination and leaving the room.
" Now who will I send to get the one about to activate." Fluegel said to no one.
A shadow appeared in the back " I'll be more than willing to do it myself."
Fluegel look back " Are you now Orgel?"
" It's payback time for what they did to Tromel." he said looking serious.
" Now Orgel we don't know if they were the one responsible for his demise." he replied.
" Well there was no one there except for them. So I say they're responsible. But I'll make them pay. Especially with the surprise we have store for them." with that he left.
Fluegel stared at his direction. " Something tells me there more than meets the eye here." with that he too left.
( Between the realms of 'The World': Dark Abyss)
Dark Tsukasa was bored out of his mind. His companion was called by the ' hag' ,according to him, and hasn't come out of the room. Dark didn't like her that much, but since he was on a mission he would have to bare it. Minutes later the cloaked figure came out of the room, looking as calm as ever.
' I wonder how he does that?' he stretch " So what does she want us to do this time?" he asked.
" She wants ME to get the next treasure and I will go Alone. While you stay here." he replied.
" What?! Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy?" Dark whined.
The cloaked figure rolled his eyes at the others antics " Well since you messed up the last one she doesn't want you out just yet."
" AWWWWWWWWWW!" Dar continue to whine " I almost follow her instruction to the letter! I bet she told you to follow her instructions to the letter as well huh?"
The other averted his eyes looking away from the other " Actually, since you messed up the last mission she told me to do whatever I wanted as long as I brought the thing back." he said still not looking at the other reaction.
Dark had wide eyes and his jaws almost reach the ground. A few second passed before " WHAT?! Thats so unfair! She always like you better! The bitch!"
" Um. Dark if I were you I lay low on the insult." he try to warned.
" Why should I?! She's a no good backstabbing old frigging mother fucking Bitch! And further more....." he was about to continue before he notice the look on the other " she's right behind me isn't she?"
True to his words a figure was right behind Dark and was looking like she was about to murder someone. Dark gulped.
" Would you be a Dear and leave to your mission." she said restraining her voice and was referring to the cloaked figure.
Dark looked at him pleading him to take him with him " Sorry, I warned ya." he said quickly before he left.
" Damn you!" Dark said quietly to himself before turning to the livid figure. He gulped once more " M-Mistress! There's a perfectly good explanation for the things I just said." he said nervously.
" I'm sure you do! Now! Why don't You come inside so we can TALK!" she said gritting her teeth.
Dark Tsukasa groaned knowing what was to come and reluctantly walk inside. Once inside the doors slammed shut and screams of terror were heard.
( Raven's at home)
Kite had an urgent call from Balmung and he grudgingly came. As he enter the at home he notice three more PC waiting. Haseo, Elk, and Ovan were all there waiting for the same reason as him.
" Hey there Kite! Been a while now! How ya been?" Elk asked cheerfully at the Twinblade, who only nodded.
" Hey! Why are you like that to him and you only say hi to me when you see me!" Haseo asked Elk incredulously.
" Jealous, Haseo?" Ovan asked amused. Elk suppressed his laughter at Haseo's flushed face.
" NO! It's just weird thats all." he said while turning away from the rest of the group.
Kite didn't payed attention thou, all this was all but amusing to him. ' Grow up will you' he thought annoyed.
Just then Balmung came into the at home, alongside him was Orca. Balmung had his usual de-minor, which meant he was here for business as usual.
" I'm glad you all have come here in short notice." he said seriously.
" Yeah, yeah. Now what is it?" Kite asked in a bored tone.
Balmung raised a brow at him " Yes, well...." Balmung started while the other looked at him incredulously " As I was saying a strong signal has just appeared over a field just recently. We believe its another of the treasures of the wave. In addition to that we have reason to believe that another area is containing the next treasure, the good news is that it hasn't revealed itself so if we're correct we may get another treasure if our guess is right. So Kite, you, Haseo, and Elk shall go to the field with the strong readings while I, Orca, and Ovan head to the other field to investigate. The field your heading is (Sigma) Delightful Heavenly Mirage. We are heading to ( Theta) Meaningless Despair Mage if you need us." he finished explaining.
" Right. This time there will not be any failures. Not on my watch." he said getting serious.
'Who does this guy thinks he is!' Haseo thought while his eyes twitch. " Whatever lets just head there and get this over with." he said.
" Right! Maybe if we get lucky nothing will go wrong!" Elk said with confidence.
" Elk, you do realize every time you said that something goes wrong, right?" Haseo asked with amusement evident in his voice.
" Does NOT! Your only saying that!" Elk pouted.
"Come on you two. There's no time to waste." Kite said heading to the gate to their destination. The other two follow soon after.
Balmung and the other two stare in their direction.
" You think those two will be alright with Kite? I mean with his recent change and all." Orca said worrily.
" Don't worry to much. Haseo and Elk are stronger than you think especially together. After all there not best friends for nothing." Ovan replied.
" Best friends? When did that happened?" Orca asked clearly confused.
" While we were gone a third network crisis almost happened. Haseo and his crew were able to stop the source. Elk was part of that crew, and during that process he befriended Haseo. Of course Haseo was the first one to break Elk of his shell, beside Kite of course." Balmung replied.
" Oh." was all Orca said.
" Well let us not waist time. Let us too head to our destination and start our investigation." Ovan said calmly while walking to the gate. The other two follow and left to their destination.
( (Sigma) Delightful Heavenly Mirage)
The trio quickly appeared at their destinated area. It was a cloudy field with mountains surrounding them, in addition it was pretty windy. What made them know that the treasure was there was the data distortion present in the field.
" Wow! I just love cloudy fields! Too bad this data distortion is messing it up." Elk said admiring the view.
" Yeah! Say Elk why did you change your character back to the wavemaster type?" Haseo asked. The question was killing him.
" Change? Were you something else while we were gone Elk?" Kite asked, thou not very interested.
" Why yes. I was a blade brandier called Endrence. I was pretty popular back then and pretty arrogant too. Haseo was the one that made me come to my senses." Kite nodded. " And as for your question Haseo, what is wrong with my wavemaster character?!" he asked playfully.
Haseo played along and made a defensive pose " Nothing! Just asking!"
Elk giggled " Well it was for the reunion. I thought I should go as my previous character!" he said cheerfully.
Kite rolled his eyes ' These guys talk too much' he thought pretty annoyed by the lack of silence.
" Riiiiight! I bet you just forgot your password to the other and use that one because it was the only one you remember." Haseo said with a grin.
" Did Not! I remember Endrence password just fine!" Elk said puffing his cheeks.
Haseo made a disbelieving face to that " Yeah right" he said to himself.
" What was That!" Elk glared.
" Nothing!" Haseo said quickly.
Elk suddenly turned serious " Haseo......" he started and looked at Haseo.
Haseo too had a serious look " I know. Somethings not right here." he said in alert.
" So you two finally notice huh?" The other two looked at Kite " Haven't you notice we been walking theses fields for a while and not a single monster has showed up." he said calmly.
" Now that you mention it, it is a bit strange not seeing a single monster in this field especially at the high lvl it is." Elk said.
Haseo was not liking this one bit, something was not right. " Lets keep moving ahead. This is a boss type of field. I have a hunch that at the boss location we'll find our answer."
The trio continue their quest with caution, knowing something was going to happen sooner or later.
( Random Field)
At lowest part of a dungeon a lonesome figure stood patiently at the treasure chamber, waiting. Metronome had cleared the dungeon with ease and was now waiting to see if her prediction of the area were accurate. So far there was no sign of any data distortion in the field.
"Hm" she said to herself " Maybe I made a miscalculation on the information I receive. So far nothing has happened." She groan loudly " I'll never hear the end of it from Orgel."
Just as she was about to leave the area became distorted and the treasure chest gave a glow before fading.
" Well, I guess my calculations were correct." she looked around " Now where's the guardian?"
At that moment a huge spider looking beats fell from the ceiling. It was looking at her menacingly and ready to attack her without mercy.
Metronome summoned her fans and prepare to fight the beast. " Prepare yourself beast." she said calmly.
( With Kite and company)
The trio had manage to reach the boss area with no resistance what so ever. Frankly, this made the group more nervous and alert.
" I don't get it. There has been no attack so far. Is this a hidden field or something?" Haseo asked eying the place.
" No. I don't think so. But it does strikes odd." Elk added.
Kite was on high alert. Something was definitively wrong. Suddenly something struck Kite odd " Where the hell is the guardian?!" Kite asked.
Elk and Haseo looked around. They definitively where in the boss section of the field. The guardian should have replace the boss, but so far there was nothing.
" Dammit! Did the Tsukasa lookalike has already taken it?!" Kite was now gritting his teeth.
Elk notice the chest remained un-open " I don't think so. Look! The chest hasn't been open yet!" Elk exclaim.
" Now I know something is wrong here." Haseo added.
" About time you show up." A voice said.
The group's gaze went to a figure resting on a tree branch. The figure descended from his resting place and landed near the chest. He had white hair tied back in a long ponytail, his shirt was open revealing his tone chest, and wore baggy pants. He also had a bandanna around his hips and fore head. He stare boredly at the group.
Kite eyed him with caution " Who are you?" he asked seriously.
" My name is Orgel, a steam gunner and a member of Shicksal. And I'm here to eliminate you." he said now glaring at the group.
Haseo was flabbergasted " Eliminate us?! What the hell?!"
Kite rolled his eyes in annoyance. " Why haven't you taken the treasure yet? It's pretty obvious you been here a while." he said not affected by the news in the least.
" Because you little pricks, I want revenge!" Orgel said.
" Huh? Why? We haven't done anything to you." Elk said now wary.
" True. But to Tromel you have! Now I'm here to make thing even." he said.
" But we didn't do it! It was......" Elk began to explain but was cut off.
" It doesn't matter that it wasn't you. One of your members did it, so I'm just simply returning the favor." with that said Orgel snap his fingers.
A whistling sound could be heard. The area shook a bit before black dots appeared above the area. The group was startle. Kite didn't now what those moving dots were, but Haseo and Elk did.
" Haseo! Those are......" Elk started saying.
" AIDA" Haseo finished.
The AIDA quickly began to unite with other dots of its kind. Soon the massive blobs began to take shapes and took the form of a tiger. They looked at the trio like a prey and they were ready to attack at any given moment.
" Dammit all!" Haseo said, while Kite silently cursed to himself.
" But I thought the AIDA that was left was the good one! What happened." Elk exclaim.
" Oh, this is the good AIDA. But its under our control now. See, we figure out a way to take control of them and used them as we please. But enough about that, time for you to die!" Orgel said, getting ready to signal the AIDA tigers to attack.
" Alright Elk" Haseo began gaining the attention of his two teammates " give me all the power you can offer to me. I'll take care of this."
" Right!" Elk replied.
" How the hell are you going to take care of this things by yourself?!" Kite asked, but the question was ignored.
Soon he got his answer when he saw markings appear all over Elk's body. " Alright Haseo take my strength and make it yours!" he exclaimed.
Haseo's body, now, also emitted markings all over it. Kite was freaking out by this ' The hell is going on here?!' he thought.
" Alright! Come on, COME ON!.......Yes!....I'm right here! SKEITH!!!" by this point everyone was blinded by a flash coming from Haseo himself. Kite cover his eyes in order to protect them from the intensity that came with it. Soon after the light faded and Kite slowly open his eyes.
" What the hell?!" the first thing he notice was that the field was gone and in its place was a huge empty space. The second thing he notice was that Haseo was gone and in his place was a white creature with huge horns, three eyes and blades that posed as wings. " No way!" Kite was in disbelief. Right there was the first phase of the wave, The Terror of Death.....Skeith.
The AIDAS growled menacingly at his arrival, knowing that he was a threat. Orgel however was not threaten.
" Alright Haseo! Go and kick there ASSES!" Elk shouted earning a look from Kite.
" Will do buddy!" with that said he summoned his energy scythe and launch at the AIDAS. Orgel gave his command and the AIDAS did the same thing.
Elk was cheering Haseo on until he notice the look on Kite's face ' Uh oh! He doesn't know does he?'. His question was soon answer.
" THE HELL?! That's Skeith! Thats fucking SKEITH! What the hell is going on here?!" he shouted confused by the situation.
Elk looked nervous " Um... well you see...." Elk took the time to explain to Kite why Haseo could summoned Skeith and the journey he had not so long ago.
" Let me get this strait. Haseo can summoned Skeith at his will and control him? Thats just fucked up!" Then a thought pas through his mind. Elk was part of Haseo's group in his absence and he had markings of his own at the beginning , so didn't that mean..... " Elk.....can you summoned a phase too?!"
Elk nodded without looking at him " Yes" he said quietly.
" Which one?" he asked out of pure curiosity.
" Macha" was all he said. Kite knew he shouldn't go deeper than that. He knew perfectly well who Macha was, more importantly who used to be.
Meanwhile Haseo was having a hard time with this type of AIDA. No matter how much he defeated they still kept coming. Their numbers were superior and he was starting to doubt if his and Elk avatar powers combine would be enough.
Orgel smirk " Give it up! There's no way you can defeat them all! Face it, your done for."
Haseo ignored this and kept blasting and slicing any AIDA that came near him. One of the AIDAS passed him by and head in Kite's and Elk's direction.
" Shit! Guys look out!" Haseo warned the two.
Elk and Kite saw this and summoned their weapons. Elk cast a spell at him to try and destroy it, but to no avail. Kite rush forward and sliced the AIDA'S side only to see the attack had no effect on it.
" Dammit! Elk can't you summoned Macha and get rid off this thing?!" Kite ask in exasperation.
" I can't cave the majority of my powers to Haseo. I don't have enough to summoned her!" Elk replied.
Kite grimaced at this. Their chances of getting out of this was slim. Then he thought of something.
" The bracelet! Maybe I can Data Drain that thing!"
Elk looked at him " It's worth to try!"
Kite prepared himself to activate the bracelet. But before he could do anything any more the AIDA shaped tiger was in front of him preparing to strike. Kite had no time to doge, he was done for. But before the giant claw rush down at him the AIDA was slashed in halve by Haseo's scythe.
" Thanks" Kite mutter.
" No problem. Now.." he said and turned to faced the rest of the AIDAS. But their numbers were high and he was getting tired by the massive amount of AIDAS. " Guys I think we need to get out of here."
" What?! No! The blasted items is still in the chest! We can't go, not when were so damn close get it!" Kite said clearly getting angry.
" Are you blind or just playing stupid?! He got us out number! I'm only one and can't take care of them all! We have to get out of here!" Haseo argue.
" No!" Kite argued back.
Elk looked at Kite with worry " Kite. Maybe Haseo is right. At our current condition you and I can't do anything against AIDA. And Haseo is outnumber. Maybe we can regroup and try later." he tried to reason.
" I said NO, Dammit! Maybe I can Data Drain them! I'm the fucking leader of this group and I say we don't go!" Kite said not giving up.
" Listen you! I care a rat ass if your our leader! Even if you could Data Drain some of them there still be a lot more to go! We can't win!" Haseo kept persisting to leave.
Orgel however would have one of that " Not so fast! Your not going anywhere. Finish them OFF!" he order the AIDA tigers who immediately launch at them.
" Shit! We can't get out now!" Haseo said, getting ready for the assault.
Kite and Elk ready themselves to help in anyway they could. But when the AIDAS were at a close range black flames came down and engulf the majority of them. The ones who weren't hit retreated to their previous position, while the ones that were engulf were eliminated. The space in which they were fighting also vanish and were back on the field. However Skeith and the AIDAS were not affected by this.
Haseo was in awe " How come the data space I created is gone but I'm still here in Skeith form?" Haseo asked.
" More importantly what happened to the AIDAS? Their umbers have decrease dramatically!" Elk added.
Kite frowned 'Some thing's not right here' he thought as he was becoming wary.
Orgel was dumbfounded. The majority of the millions of AIDAS he control were just destroyed by a single attack. " What the hell just happened?"
Elk was looking their surroundings for any intruder. Kite did the same, whoever his search came to an end when his eyes landed on a figure on top of a cliff. His eyes widen at the figure. Elk and Haseo notice the change and quickly looked at the direction he was starring at, they too join his expression. Orgel however didn't seem to notice. On top of a cliff stood a figure who had Kite's appearance, but they only could see part of his head since the lower halve was cover in a black cloak that cover his whole body. The cloak move gently in the wind and his gaze landed on the trio. Orgel took notice of him after a while. " Hey! Who the hell are you?!" however the cloaked figure was silent.
" Well It doesn't matter. You'll be dead soon! Eliminate him!" the AIDAS followed his orders and attack.
The cloaked figure did not seemed threaten. He slowly raised his arm in their direction and before the AIDAS could reach him he fired a black beam and eliminated the approaching AIDAS, while some of them manage to escape. The beam extended to such length that it cut through halve of the field they were in. Five to six AIDAS survived and were standing next to Orgel. Said person could not believe his eyes " Thats........impossible" he said afraid.
The figure jumped from the cliff and landed gracefully a few meters away from them. He raised his armed and black flames appeared in his hand, stretching and taking form. A black sword with red markings appeared from them, black flames still surrounded the blade and he held it like a twin blade, backward. He than prepared to swing his sword at them. Orgel by them began to run for the gate, but the figure swung his blade sending and energy slash so big it cover halve of the field. The AIDA were quickly eliminated but the attack kept on going. Skeith stood in front of the group to protect them before the impact. When it hit Skeith, Haseo felt the pain and let a silent scream go. The attack lasted mere seconds but it had destroy halve of the field.
The figure look at his work and was impress to see Haseo still conscious and not deleted. The impact made Haseo turned back to his original form and he felt very weak, Orgel however was not so lucky. The trio saw that his PC was completely destroyed before fading away. The figure took no notice of this as he went to the treasure chest and took out the item that resemble a mirror.
" So, this is Innis mirror. Marvelous." the figure said quietly and was on his way to leave.
" Hey, you! Where do you think your going?!" Kite shouted at his lookalike.
The lookalike stood and faced the group, they could now see how he look like a lot better since his cloak was open. He has black hair, he also had a black shirt open and a white shirt inside it and black leather pants. He also had chains on his belt instead of two belts. His eyes were bright red, making them look like rubies and his hat was also black. His markings were different from Kites, they still were triangles but the were shape like the tri-edge sings. Even the had symbol was the tri-edge mark.
He looked boredly at the group " What?" he asked.
Kite notice that their voice were almost the same, except his sounded a little younger. " I believe you have something we want." he said glaring at the other.
The lookalike didn't looked faced by the glared, in fact he smirk " Oh? You mean this?" he said while showing the item he just obtain.
Kite glare intensified " Yeah! Give it or else!"
The other simply chuckle " Come and get it then."
Kite summoned his blades and charge at the figure. Once within reach he started to slash rapidly at the figure. The lookalike simply dodge every blow with ease without even fighting back. Kite's rage rose up when he saw the other smiling at him, like he was just toying with him. Kite's attack became rapid and wild throwing techniques, spell, everything he could muster. But the other kept dodging everything he threw at him.
Kite tried to strike at the other from behind. The lookalike quickly turned and hit Kite square in the chest with his palm repelling Kite to were the other two were.
" You won't be getting away that easily!" he charged once more. The figure summoned his black blade and slammed it against the floor creating a crack that extended to Kite's direction. Kite's foot got stuck in the crack and he lost balance and fell.
" Dammit! It's stuck! Elk do something!" he shouted while struggling to get his foot free.
" Right!" Elk began to prepare a spell at the lookalike.
Said figure looked at Elk's direction and in a blink of an eye he was face to face with the wave master. Elk was stunned and did nothing but watch terrified of what the other might do to him. The lookalike simply stared into his eyes, as if seeing what was in his soul. But did nothing to harm the wave master.
Kite got frustrated " Fuck! Elk don't stand around and do something!" he was able to get his foot free and dash toward the two.
Elk was still to in trance to move. Suddenly the figure jump hight into the air before black flames surrounded him and he disappeared from the field.
" NO!!!" Kite shouted. He had failed to retrieve the treasure.
Elk slowly approach him " Kite.... I'm" he was cut off immediately by Kite.
" Do you realize what you've done! He got away with the fucking treasure!" said Kite in rage.
Elk was taken back, he certainly did not expect this from Kite " I-Im.........." he try to speak only to be cut off again.
" NO! Because of you Aura is in serious danger! Your useless like back then, you know that! I don't know why your even part of this team when the only thing you do is mess up everything!" Kite spat.
Elk's eyes had widen. This was too much to bare. " I.....I ......" he couldn't even find words to say.
" Uhg! I'm wasting my time with you! Your as pathetic now as back...." now Kite was the one cut off.
" Shut up! Who the hell gave you the rights to judge others?!" Haseo who was on the floor a few minutes ago slowly rose. He was not going to let his best friend be insulted, not when he was there " Leave Elk alone! The guy was obviously too much for us to handle! You can't expect him to do what you failed to do! Stop blaming others just because your an asshole!"
" What did you say?!" Kite said gritting his teeth.
" You heard me! Beside you did no better so back off!" Haseo shouted.
Kite was gritting his teeth and frowning all at once. He was in rage of what happened today and was not going to take anyone lightly " What ever! Next time just stay out of my way!" he left the area to cool down.
Haseo took a deep breath " Man that guy looked like he was about to kill me. Are you ok Elk?" he said looking at the other. The wave master had his head down and his bangs were covering his eyes. " Elk?"
Haseo asked concern now.
" Yeah, I'm fine" he said in a ragged voice. " I just want to be alone for a while." was all he said before he log out of the field.
Haseo frowned " If that guy seriously hurt Elk, theres going to be hell to pay."He log out of the field as well.
Not to far a figure had watch the whole scene unfold. ' Maybe hasn't change like the others. Perhaps I can help him' Kite's lookalike thought with a smirk before he too left.
( (Delta) Plenteous Smiling Hypha)
Elk was crouch down on his favorite field crying. The words that Kite spoke of earlier still hung in his head. He just couldn't take the way Kite reacted earlier. ' Your useless! I don't even know why your part of this team! Your still as pathetic now as you were back then!' Elk couldn't help but to shed more tears as the words echo through his head.
" I really am useless aren't I?" he asked himself on the brick of tears.
" Well now, aren't you the depress one?" an amuse voice said.
Elk quickly glance to see who was there. There standing behind him was Kite lookalike, looking at him with amused eyes. Elk panic and crawled back until his back hit a tree. There was no way he could win against him, and his chances were even slimmer with the state he was in. He was terrified. The lookalike must have notice this because the amuse look was gone and one of sympathy came into view.
" Hey now. Your not afraid of me are you?" he asked in Kite's voice.
" W-What do you want?" Elk ask.
" To ask a question." he shrugged.
" W-What is it t-then?" Elk said nervous.
" Still shuttering as always huh? Are you still looking for aromatic grass like back then?" he asked the wave master.
Elk had wide eyes " K-Kite?".
The other grin at him " Yes and no. The name's Shadow Kite, just call me Shadow to avoid confusion. Nice to finally meet ya." he said in Kite's playfulness.
Elk was confused and stood up to meet the other. He notice they were the same height " Hey! Your shorter then Kite." he stated innocently.
" Don't remind me." he snorted " So Elk what have you been up to?" he said crossing his armed while grinning.
" Um...Fine?" Elk was confused " Why are you acting so friendly?"
" Because your not like everyone else. I can see that blindfolded." Shadow said.
" What do you mean?" Elk asked.
At this Shadow happy demeanor disappeared and scowl appeared in its place " Because thats how people are! Selfish and uncaring! They only like to take advantage of others for their own gain. The make you feel lesser than them just because one is different!" he said while gritting his teeth.
" Thats not true! People are kind and good!" Elk tried to reason.
" Is that why Kite did what he did to you?! Face it, people will never change! Their all garbage!" he replied.
Elk had nothing to say to that. The mentioning of Kite and what he did really left a mark. He felt like crying again. Shadow notice the change a quickly change to his happy demeanor.
" Hey! No sad faces around me. Come on put a smile on that face!" he tried to sheer Elk up.
" I don't want to." he said no looking at him.
" Come on! Laughing make everything better!" he said while standing right in front of Elk and made a funny face. Elk couldn't hold it for long and burst into laughter " There we go!"
Elk laughter subsided to giggling " Thanks. I needed that!" he said cheerly.
" Good! Usually I'm serious and silent but seeing a friend sad makes me want to make them smile! Now Elk heres an important request from me." Shadow said.
Elk knew there was a catch " I'm not telling you anything about my team and such." he said sighting.
" Huh? No! Not that!" Elk attention was now caught " Elk I want you to join me." he said seriously now.
Elk eyes widen " What?! N-No......I-I.....I can't...Kite and the others....." he started to say but was cut off by Shadow.
" Please! Like they care! I bet my whole being they talk trash about you when your back is turn. Haseo was the same at the beginning when you two meet. Face it Elk, people will never change. It's just their way to be heartless." Shadow said.
Elk was now wondering what people really thought about him. Haseo seemed friendly and all but sometimes he was off. Maybe Shadow Kite was right. " But.....how will I face everyone."
" Let them think whatever they want. They don't care, so why should you! Beside you'll be able to show Kite your true potential and make him regret ever saying those hurtful words. We'll show him and everyone else!" Shadow said.
Elk looked down " But I don't want revenge. I want......a friend. Like Mia"
" Then why do you hesitate. I'm offering you power and my friendship along with others like us. All you need to do....is say yes." Shadow said.
Elk was deep in thought. Would he really betray them? ' Why should I care! They never notice me anyway! But.....' He still had doubt. His thought where interrupted by Shadow.
" Come on Elk! What do you have to loose? I need you Elk......Help me create a better world for people like us." Shadow said eying the wave master closely ' Come on. Don't make me do something I won't like!' he thought.
Elk was taken back by that. ' He needs me!' " O-Ok. Yeah! Lets make a better world!"
Shadow smiled at this. He inwardly smirk ' Now I have Elk, Kite. What will you do now?' " Oh! Elk don't mention back at the place I'll be taking you how I cheer you up, ok?"
" Huh? Why?" Elk was confused.
" Because back there I'm a serious person back there and I would never hear the end of it from Dark if he found out." he said smiling softly.
" Um...Ok." Elk replied.
