.Hack/ Shadows of Rebirth
Azure L.: Um...hehe sorry it took so long to update but there is a perfectly good explanation why I haven't updated to this date.
Dark T.: Oh! Wait a second....( Leaves and come back with a chair and sits on it) I need to hear what far-fetch excuse you come up with this time.
Shadow K.: ( Rolls his eyes.)
Azure L.: Riiiiiight......Anyways it went like this.
Flash back
I was standing in front of the evil looking teaching institute, aka school/ college. Black clouds surrounded the building and soon after lighting could be seen and hear while it rained cats and dogs. I gulped and decided to head in and got to one of the many torturous class rooms. Upon reaching my destination I was met by a creepy looking teacher, you know red eyes, black eye liner, black long nails, etc.....
Creepy teacher: Welcome to ( Insert school/ college name here) for the dam.....I mean blessed people. HAIL HITLER!!
Me: ( Take a step back) Riiiight.....Anyways I'm for a um...class?
Creepy teacher : Ah yes! Please right this way. ( He opens a door and flames burst from it)
I sweat drop but, foolishly, entered the class room.
Creepy teacher: Please feel free to look around and make yourself comfortable.
I looked at the class room and saw students being torture by many devices. To the left some were tied to a table while a pendulum swung lower and lower. In another section a students were hanging from a rope and in the bottom was a pit with snakes and others. In other words the place was hell.
Me: I think I better go.
Creepy teacher: Oh no you don't!! ( he pushes me to a chair, which chains suddenly appeared and binded me to it) You'll be here for the rest of your life doing an endless wave of homework and tests that have all the answers wrong so you'll FAIL!! ( Insert evil laugh here)
Me : Oh boy. Body you re making me angry. And you wouldn't like me when I'm angry!
My eyes turned red and my body got bigger transforming me into....a dragon. A broke my binds and let a loud roar and.......
Shadow K : Alright that is enough!! ( Breaks the flash back)
Dark T.: ( Clapping slowly) I have to say that was the most idiotic and totally fake excuse I had ever herd.
Shadow K.: Besides you got that from an episode of family guy except you change a few things. How pathetic! You weren't even original. You wasted the readers time here!! Besides I bet no one even read this piece of crap.
Azure L.: …......It could've happened.
Shadow K. and Dark T.: Not on your life.
Azure L.: Grrr stupid OCS. Anyways I am sorry for the delay now on to the chapter!!
(It begins: Part 2)
( Real World)
In the human world everything was thrown into chaos. More and more comatose victims passed through the hospital gates and everyone's cause was the same, 'The World'. Parents, Relatives, friends and among others were demanding CCORP an explanation. Said company was swimming in complaints, sues from angry parents, and among others. In other words they were screw.
" What are going to do?! If this keeps up CCORP will hit the bottom in a matter of days!"
An older man, who apparently was the head of the company, sighted sadly " If Kite and the others don't find a way to stop this then I will have no choice but to completely close 'The World'."
" Are you sure sir? Many people like the game, even with the danger it brings. As stupid as it sounds I think it actually bring more people together."
" Indeed. In moments of crisis people seems to come together and do their best to stop it. We will give Kite some time. If he and the others can't succeed then we'll pull the plug. Is that understood?" the older man said.
" Yes sir!"
( Mac Anu)
Saku, who had taken control since Bo fainted, was blasting the felines with every spell at her disposal and didn't let up. " Take that you sons of the bitches!!" she roared as she fired several fire spells at the attacking beasts completely destroying them.
" It doesn't matter! We are killing these things, but they keep coming!" Mistral said as she healed Saku and the others.
Natsume slash beast after beast in their weak points using her agility and speed to the max " We can't give up guys! Kite and the others are counting on us to hold the back. Have faith!"
However as she said this she did not notice one of the cats walking on one of the roof tops. His eyes were fix on her waiting to see if she really was unguarded. Once he was sure it jump right at her intending on finishing her off. " Natsume look out!" shouted Mistral.
Natsume looked up to see the thing almost on top of her. She closed her eyes waiting for the impact, but it never came. Once she open her eyes she saw Piros holding the beast off with his lance. With grunt he threw it to one of the building with force. " Motivational speech Natsume! But keep an eye on these things will you.?" Natsume laughed sheepishly.
Mia jump in the air and launch at Piros with her blade. Said player turned in time and use his weapon to block the offending attack. Mia smirk " Well, Well Piros. Although you are a mayor pain to many you sure know how to defend yourself. Although you never were bright."
Piros laughed, even as he tried to hold the attacker off " HAHAHAHA! I ,Piros the third, am the shining knight of 'The World' and I won't be beaten that easily! And besides this defeat will be a mayor payback for tricking me back in the days."
Mia smirked " We'll see."
A large serpent like beast rose from the distance and launch a barrage of lighting attacks at two other flying objects. Mia and Piros had to jump back to avoid the attack. However the attacks didn't slow down. Piros and the others watch the water dragon fight two humanoid things.
" What is that?!" Piros asked astound.
Mia looked at the thing " Hm....looks like Cubia is having a blast on his own." she turned to looked at the others " But that won't stop our current activity. Shall we continue?" it wasn't a question, more like a heads up.
" You know it!" Piros and the others shouted before they resumed their fight with Mia.
Cubia opened his mouth and tried to bite the two avatars that were flying around him. His serpent body move to doge some attacks directed at him. He continue to fire lighting spheres at them in hopes of hitting them. " Hold still and make this quick will ya?!"
Yata, currently Fidhell, formed a barrier around them deflecting the attacks " And why, pray tell, do we want to do that?"
Ovan, Corbenik, transformed his left arm into a gun and fired at their opponent. Water rosed from every body of water in the city and protected the leviathan. " This will be harder than we anticipated."
" I got an idea." Orca said from Corbenik's shoulder. He murmured a spell and a huge boulder formed in front of Corbenik. Said avatar used his gun as a bat and hit it with force. The boulder went trough the water defense and hit Leviathan in his head.
" Ow!! How the hell did that get trough my water defense?" he growled.
" Because the boulder was more heavier and thus not affected by the current power in your defense." Orca explained while he summoned another boulder and the same process took place. However this time Cubia used an electrical barrier instead of water, thus destroying the incoming boulder.
" Nice try! But you won't be able to get pass this barrier. Now eat lightning mother fuckers!!" he roared as he opened his mouth and fired a blast. The two avatars dodged and continue their barrage of attacks.
" Ovan. I have another plan." Fidhell spoke. Corbenik got closed and listened to the plan. He nodded once he fully heard it.
Cubia glared " What do you think your doing?! Well whatever it is forget it." he moved his serpentine body toward the two.
Fidhell focus his energy and began to divide into many copies of himself. The water dragon halted and stared as he was surrounded by many avatars. He also notice that Ovan was missing. He let a frustrating growl be heard " Playing hide and seek, huh? Fine! You hide, I destroy!!" He fired another beam and many copies vanished. Yata, to make the game harder, began to make the copies move in different directions. Cubia was not thrilled " This is going to take for ever!" he whined, but then chuckle " But it's certainly a lot more interesting." he continue to attack the copies in hopes of hitting the real thing.
In another section, A. Orca, A. Balmung, Zelkova, Atoli, and Rena were trying to hold off A. Kite. He was fast, thought, resisting, and precise; a very bad combination for them. The two others Azure Knights were having a thought time fighting him, and not just because he was one of them. Luckily Atoli was there to heal them or else they wouldn't have lasted long. A. Kite summoned two orbs of fire and threw them at the party. They dodge but forgot that the two orbs exploded into many fireballs and received a nasty damage from it. Once again Atoli healed everyone.
" Huh! This is taking to long! And he clearly can keep this up for a while!" Rena said desperately.
" Don't worry he will tired soon, hopefully." Atoli suggested.
Rena then cheered up " Hey I got it! You...!" she pointed at A. Orca.
" Me?" he pointed at himself.
" Yes you!!" she said incredulously " Use Data Drain on him to weaken him." she said while looking smug at the idea.
" Of Course!!!" A. Orca exclaimed and pointed his arm at A. Kite " DATA DRAAAIIIIINNN!!!!!" he shouted.
Everyone awaited for the attack. Azure Kite looked at the group waiting for said attack. Some time passed. A. Kite looked at his watch, that conveniently had on his wrist at the time, to see how much time passed.
Suddenly realize something" Oh! Yeah! Aura didn't gave me that ability." he said while looking at the group.
The group fell to the ground sweat dropping. A. Balmung faced palmed himself ' Why do I have to be stuck with this idiot!' " OF COURSE WE CAN'T USE DATA DRAIN YOU MORON!!!!!!!!!"
A. Kite chuckled "Still as clueless as ever ,eh A. Orca? Well luckily for you I don't need to use that to finish you off." he said smugly.
" Too bad you let your guard down." Zelkova said from behind A. Kite making his eyes go wide. Zelkova swung his scythe and hit A. Kite's back making him fly forward. The rest didn't miss a beat, the two Azure Knights launch forward and slash cross their companion, but he continue to move forward. Rena swung her blade and stop A. Kite trajectory and swung him around like a rag doll, until finally threw him into the air. Atoli cast an ice spell to finish the job. A. Kite had to bite his lips to keep him from screaming in pain and he landed harshly to the ground. He grunted in pain as he started to get up until he was in a kneeling position panting hard.
" Quickly before he gets a chance to get up." Zelkova shouted as he and the others, minus Atoli who kept her distance, launch forward the fallen knight.
Whoever before they could dealt more damage A. Kite let out a burst of blue flames be unleash repelling the attackers off and send them flying back. He painfully got up and took a battle stance once more. He spit out some blood before speaking " Lucky shot. But you won't be getting them anymore. I will not die here until I bring Kite down and prove my worth!"
The others got up and were healed by Atoli. "Ok guys. We must keep on fighting. I doubt we'll get a shot like that again." Zelkova said seriously.
" Very well we shall keep fighting until Kite returns." A. Balmung stated.
The earth shook from a large explosion in the distance up ahead. The group witness a huge white snowy bird rise from the area with a giant wolf with six tails in it's claws before flying around and ramming it against a building. A white avatar began to fire a barrage of energy balls at the bird who began to doge.
" What in blue blazes is that white thing?!" Rena shouted.
Zelkova frowned " That must be Dark's beast form. I hope those two will be ok."
A. Kite chuckled darkly " You should worry about yourself" and fired a huge fireball toward them.
( Warning! This part is my friend idea. She paid me for this part, and damn what a good pay...20 dollars yay!)
Sirius, Tsukasa, rose from the heap of boulders he was currently buried into. He shook himself before he ran after Skeith who currently was fighting Kousetsu (1), the ice bird. Dark wasted no time in calling his avatar and jumping into beast from. ' Man Dark really wants to finish this quickly huh?' Tsukasa thought a he ran to catch up. The bird was white as snow, except for the beak and claws that were sky blue, and his eyes that turned silver. What was noticeable was that as he moved he looked like a ghost because with each flap snow would be released making it look like a blanket of snow was following it. He had three long white tail feathers that could hardy be seen because of the snow trailing the bird. Only his wings and upper body could be seen clearly. And, like anyone could guess, he uses ice attacks.
Skeith fired his blade like wings toward the bird in hopes on hitting it. Kousetsu open his beak and fired an ice beam freezing the attack on its trail. " Aw! What's the matter! Does Haseo feels disappointed because his attack failed? Well too bad! You'll be coming with me so......" he was interrupted when a fire stream of fire passed him and he had to doge " The hell?!"
Sirius had made it to the battle seen just in time to aid Skeith " I told you that ain't going to happen. If you want Haseo you'll have to go thro......." he paused remembering the previous words " Well, your ain't getting him and that is final!" he said while blushing.
Kousetsu, Dark, chuckled knowing very well why he cut that sentence short " Don't be embarrassed. I can go through you if you want. You would enjoy it the same anyways." he said while grinning.
" Hey what make you think you'll be.....er." he took a deep breath ' Almost said it in front of Haseo'
" Because you look more like an uke to me anyways." the bird replied laughing .
" What?!! Oh hell no! It's much better the other way around!! I am soo seme material!!" Tsukasa barked back. Haseo was disturbed beyond belief.
" Yeah right! With that little stick between your legs?! You couldn't even reach half way!" Dark gloated.
That did it, Tsukasa was red now. " You...." he growled " ...are" his tails extended in different directions "......so" each one emitted a different aura with different colors ".....DEAD!!!" He fired multiple elements attacks toward Kousetsu. Said bird was having a hard time dodging the attacks coming from every direction.
" Gah!! Can't you take joke?!!" he exclaimed as he kept on dodging.
Haseo watch from the side lines for a moment, not sure if either to be amused or disturb beyond repair. He sighted as he reluctantly followed the berserk wolf on its rampage to get the white bird for what he said. ' What have I gotten myself into.' he thought while shaking his head.
The Twilight and Shadow Knights were lock in a serious battle that would determine who would have the advantage over the other. Kite and Elk were having a stare down, neither inching a move, waiting for the other to make a move first. Elk was the first to move as he hit his staff on the ground, summoning multiple vines heading toward the twinblade. Kite wasted no time and began to use his fire spell to burn them down and those who weren't hit he used his blades to cut them of. After he fend off the attack he used another fire spell on Elk, who simply dodge and sidestep to avoid it. Said wavemaster, then, send a powerful gust of wind, which carried rose petals, toward the twinblade. Kite quickly use a fire spell against the attack. The two attacks collided making an earth shaking explosion. From the smoke of the attacks Kite launch forward toward Elk, who was surprise but used his rod to to block the double blades. The two struggle against each other, neither giving up.
" Elk....dammit.......come to your senses.......you aren't like them!!" Kite grunted as he kept on pushing against Elk.
Elk grunted back " Do I......look......like I.....Care?!!" he said pushing against Kite as well.
Both broke up their test of strength and jump away from the other. The both were staring at each other, more like glaring.
" You don't even agree with their actions! So to answer your question, yes....you do care." Kite told the wavemaster.
Elk glared at the ground " That's true." he said before looking back at Kite " Neither of us wants to do this, and yet we are. I'm doing this for him, even if I don't agree with this!!" he shouted as he send multiple wind spheres toward Kite.
Kite used his speed and dodge and launch a barrage of fireballs toward the wave master who did the same " So even if it kills you, you're still willing to do it for that guy?! What about the people here?! Aura?! Those who have been place in a comas?! Are you willing to live with yourself knowing that you ruined many peoples families lives?!" he shouted.
" If it makes him happy.....then yes." Elk simply replied.
" Why you fuck?! I won't let you! You're my friend and I won't let you or Mia be a part of this!" Kite shouted. Determination evident in his eyes.
' Then use my powers brat. Let him know you mean business as well. Shall I lend my strength?' Cubia O. said inside his mind.
' Do it!' Kite replied.
' Very well, here it comes.' was the replied.
Kite's body began to glow red. Elk was taken back by this ' He really is serious about this isn't he? Well let's see what he's got then.' Purple signs started to appear on Elk's body soon after that.
Kite saw this a knew what was coming " Well Elk I hope your ready!"
Elk smirked " Same goes for you"
A flash blinded the area temporarily before it faded away. Two avatars were staring at each other. Kite avatars notice something different on Macha. The avatar didn't have the veil over his head, and his lower section was still a rose but smaller and the mid section of the rose was shorten revealing legs and a tail on his back. Other than that it still looked like it was described.
" I see your avatar had a make over" Kite said.
" Yeah well you have an avatar on your own. So that makes us even" Elk said before he summoned a blade " But not for long." he said as he flew straight toward Kite, who brace himself for the attack.
Shugo jump back as he avoided another set of attack. He was now panting as for Shadow wasn't even breaking a sweat. Shugo had move quickly and agile to make his attacks, Shadow on the other hand hasn't even move from that single spot. Each time Shugo attack, Shadow deflected and send a barrage of his own.
Shadow smirked "What's the matter kid? Don't tell me your almost done?" he said with amusement.
Shugo grinned " Nope. And stop calling me kid! We're practically the same age!!"
Shadow snorted " Perhaps. But mentally I'm more mature than you. By a mile!"
" Hey!!" Shugo said as he panted and tremble.
Shadow smirk grew " What's the matter? Feeling scare?"
Shugo grin wider " Are you kidding?! I'm excited as hell!!" he said truthfully.
Shadow smirk drop and frown ' What the hell?! This kid isn't even afraid to die?! Of ME?!!' he thought for a moment.
However because of said distraction gave Shugo an opening as he quickly ran forward and slash Shadow across his chest. However the blade went through of him without even damaging him. Shugo was flabbergasted. Shadow grunted as he swung his arm toward the stunned Shugo. Shugo quickly bent backwards to doge the arm and succeeded. But a powerful force threw him away into the air. Before hitting the floor the twinblade did a spin in the air and manage to land perfectly on the ground.
" Hm. Impressive but ….you let your guard down!!" Shadow suddenly moved from his spot and launch at Shugo with amazing speed. He stomp his foot with force on the ground, making it crack, and punch Shugo straight in his guts. Shugo's vision went white from the pain as he was sent flying backward straight to a wall. The impact was as bad as it sounded, he felt his bones crack and splutter blood from his mouth before his body slumped back to the ground in a sitting position. Shadow appeared next to the fallen twinblade " Heh. Don't feel bad kid. You're not the first one to fall before me. Be grateful that I will let you live to tell the tale." with that he started to walk away. He didn't get to far before he heard a grunt of pain from behind, he turned to see Shugo beginning to stand up. Shadow had wide eyes " No way. You should be knock out." he said in a low tone.
Shugo looked up and grin, blood still coming out of his mouth " I told you I wasn't giving up on you. No matter how much you break my bones or crush me you will not win." he cough some blood.
Shadow snorted " Like your in any condition to keep going. I'll admit I am impressed but it still looks like I win. Face it kid you lost, I'm simply out of your league."
' You know he's right.'
' Like I care! I won't give up no matter the odds!' Shugo replied in his mind before it suddenly hit him 'Um.....hello?'
' Hello to you too kid. Looks like you need a little help. Here let me help ya out.' the voice replied back inside Shugo's mind.
A golden light began to surround Shugo's body. Shadow was startle to say the least, he wasn't expecting this. In flash Shugo emerge good as new, his bruise, cuts, and other were healed. This startle Shadow beyond belief.
" The fucking hell?!" his eyes just couldn't believe it.
" Woah! I feel as good as new!" Shugo stated the obvious ' There! All fix up.' the voice said in his mind. 'Hey who are you? Why are you inside my head?' he said in his mind. ' No time for that kid. This fight is far from over. With your current strength you will never beat him, thou you but up a good fight.' Shugo frowned ' Then what do I do voice?' 'Heh!'the voice said smugly ' Use my power of course. You'll be fighting in an even level with that guy. But use it wisely, you can still loose if you make a wrong move. So DON'T BLOW IT!!'
Shugo's body began to emit a golden aura, to say that Shadow was stunned would be an understatement. Shugo's felt the power flowing through him, he felt like he could do anything. He took a look at Shadow and saw him stunned and quickly, taking advantage of it, decided to attack. He disappeared from the spot making Shadow's eyes even wider. Shadow saw movement behind him and quickly turned around to block. The blades clash against each other creating a shock wave I the process. To Shadow's surprise Shugo's strength have increase dramatically and he actually had to use force to hold off the blades.
" The.....hell?!!" Shadow grunted as he push the twinblade back " How the hell did you get this strong?!" he demanded an answer.
Shugo just grinned " Just now. This fight is just getting started." He launch forward toward Shadow.
Said player took a battle stance " Dammit! I better get serious or else!" he mutter as he prepared for the strike of the incoming Shugo.
Elsewhere Morganna stood on the top on one of the many buildings that still were left standing, looking pleased with the view she was getting. Her knights were obviously gaining the upper hand and many players were beginning to fall. However, she was concern with the fact that Shugo was toe to toe with her strongest knight. 'He might become a thorn in my path if this keeps up.' but then smirked 'No matter. Soon this will be over and not even that kid will be able to stop me.'
Shugo and Shadow both landed a punch on the others cheeks before the jumping back away from the other, both panting. Shadow was a little annoyed that the dofus of the Twilight Knights was able to go head on with him, but grin.
" I must say Shugo........I'm impressed." Shadow panted.
" Thanks.......Your not......bad yourself." Shugo panted back.
Shadow's grin never left " However.....This is truly my victory none the less."
Shugo frowned " What do you mean?"
Elk swung his sword toward the dragonnoid form of Kite. Kite barely was able to block the incoming sword, Elk had taken the advantage in this fight. ' Damn! He's so strong...I don't think I can win!" he thought as he push Elk back.
" What's the matter Kite getting tired?" Elk teased.
' That punk is asking for an ass-kicking!!' Cubia O. said clearly annoyed.
' Not like you could do anything about it. He is kicking our ass in full power!!' Kite retorted back.
" Kite....you are clearly getting tired. You can't keep this up forever, while I on the other hand can go a little more. So I'll make this simple, hand over the talisman and you can be on your way." Elk said.
Kite snorted " Yeah right! Like that's ever going to happen! How about this...YOU come back with us, along side Mia, and help us stop the destruction of 'The World'. How does that sound?" Kite said back arrogantly.
Elk growled " You still haven't learned anything?!! It was you that made me go with them, it was you who made me change my mind, it was YOU who put me in this predicament!! Well no more!! I'm going to finish this now." Elk said as he began to charge up an attack.
Shugo was eying Shadow carefully " What do you mean by this is your victory? We're evenly match. I don't understand?"
Shadow shook his head in amusement " You poor deluded kid. Sure you gain power, but don't you wonder how?" Shugo frowned in thought while Shadow decided to continue " I mean from the jaws of defeat you 'magically' receive power to heal and to fight back and yet you haven't wonder why?" he said while smirking.
Shugo looked frustrated " I don't know what your saying!! And your giving me a headache!" he pouted.
Shadow chuckled 'Yep! Definitely him.' " Aw. Is wittle Shugo getting frustrated?" he said teasingly " Well let me tell you. You, my friend, are the host of the god of twilight." he said while grinning.
" WHAT?!!!" Shugo shouted.
' Um.....Surprise!!' the voice, known as Ash, said inside his head.
' When were you planning on telling me this Ash!' Shugo said inside his mind.
' Well I was going to tell you after you creamed this guy.' Ash replied stubbornly.
' And what would've happened if I couldn't?!' Shugo replied hotly.
' Hm....Haven't thought of that. Hehe oops...' Ash replied lamely.
Shugo's eye twitch " You block head!!" he shouted.
Shadow was watching amusedly. However, he sensed something that was gathering a huge amount of energy. He turned to look at the source and saw a huge sphere in font of Elk. Shugo looked at it too for he also sensed it. Shadow's eye twitch ' Oh, that's not good. He'll destroy Kite along with the talisman! Why the hell did I teach him that?!!'
'Holy shit!!' Shugo and Ash both thought at the same time.
Kite stared with wide eyes ' He's not going to.....' he thought.
'I believe he is. Well it's been nice knowing ya kid.' Cubia O. replied.
An energy sphere with rose petals surrounding it floated right in font of Elk. He glared at Kite once more, reluctant thou " Well......I guess this is it....." he said while not looking at Kite " …..Farewell" with that he fired. The sphere expanded into a beam heading straight toward Kite.
Kite closed his eyes and awaited for the beam to hit him and him being send into the Dark Realm along side many other victims. He slowly open his eyes and saw the beam getting near, however he also notice a white blur appearing right in front of him. His eyes widen in realization.
" Aura!!" he shouted.
" What?!" Elk said surprised.
Shugo gasped while Shadow simply said " Hm, didn't see that coming."
The beam hit Aura with a tremendous force that made the A.I. scream in pain. A huge explosion soon erupted sending the goddess flying toward the ground, data slowly leaving her body. She crash landed on the ground seemingly unconscious. Kite saw the whole thing in horror, soon after his avatar body shook and began to glow red. Kite was still in a shell shock stated, he didn't even notice the talisman falling from its hiding place. Cubia O. saw this as his chance to gain control over the body. ' Hehehe. The seal has been broken, now my true power is at my command once more! Time to show these pest whose in charge.'
In a flash of light Kite's avatar disappeared and from it emerge a huge red dragon. His wings were even bigger than before and his claws were sharper. His tail move from side to side and his eyes turned a golden color. He growled menacingly at Elk, now who was now halve his size.
Elk floated back, obviously intimidated " K-Kite?" he stammered.
The red dragon chuckled darkly " Sorry, but Kite is not available this moment. However I, Cubia Omega, will be more than gladly to dispose of you."
He launch forward and open his jaws in other to crunch the avatar. Elk barely was able to dodge and get away. Cubia O. send a stream of flames toward the cat like avatar, said avatar launch a barrage of attacks to try to hold them off but proved futile.
' Oh no. His attacks are far stronger than mine so I can't block and I can't dodge forever! I'm in trouble!' Elk thought as he kept on dodging the incoming attacks.
Morganna, from afar, watch this and frowned. "This could turned the battle to their favor. "We better finish this now or we might be the ones who get deleted."
Shadow gritted his teeth ' Dammit!! This changes everything! I can't fight Kite and Shugo at the same time!! Fuck!! And everything was going so well!' his thought were interrupted when he received a message.
" Shadow finish this now or else it might be to late for all of us. I saw the talisman falling out of Kite before he transformed. Here's the location. Quickly there's no time to loose." Morganna told him.
Shadow nodded and looked at his surroundings and spotted Haseo and Tsukasa chasing Dark while firing different types of spells. He swung his blade and unleash an energy slash hitting Tsukasa straight on. Tsukasa shouted in pain before collapsing on to the ground. Haseo and Dark were stunned.
" What the....?" Dark began but was interrupted.
" FREEZE HIM!!" Shadow shouted.
Dark wasted no time and fired an ice beam hitting Haseo, who was caught off-guard, and trapped him in solid ice. Dark flew straight toward him and grab the avatar with his claws and flew back.
Shadow, seeing as one of the targets was in their possession, ran to the location of were the talisman had fallen.
Shugo was still frozen in place because of the whole ordeal. ' And he calls me a block head. Hey move it!! Shadow's getting away and toward the talisman!! Move your scrawny little ass!!' Ash shouted inside his mind making him bot right after Shadow.
Shadow reach his destination and quickly spotted the talisman and grabbed it. " Got it! Everyone fall back!! We got what we wanted!!" he shouted to the rest of his group. The members of the Shadow Knights quickly left what they were doing and left the burning city. Elk had vanish in time before another fire stream hit him. Shadow turned toward to Shugo and smirk " Looks like we win kid. Next time you see us will be at the temple finishing the ceremony." Shugo launch at him but he disappeared in black flames.
" Dammit no!" he said with disappointment.
Cubia O. was not pleased at all " Great! The brat got away! Well there goes my perfect record on always eliminating any pest. Grr. Now Kite wants control back. Today was so not my day, next time." with that he reverted back to Kite's form.
" Huh?" Kite looked around temporarily before his eyes widen " Aura!!" he ran toward the direction the A.I. had fallen.
The rest of the twilight knights, after getting over their confusion because of their enemies sudden retreat, headed toward their leader's direction and found him with a very ill and weaken Aura in his arms. Data was slowly leaved her body making her weaker by the minute.
" Lady Aura!!" A. Balmung ran toward his creator, A. Orca followed behind. " What happened?"
" She took a blast from Macha. What are going to do?!" Kite asked getting desperate.
Zelkova quickly ran toward him and examined the A.I. " Don't worry I can fix her. But not here there too many players around."
Kite let a relieve sigh and nodded and took a looked at the rest of the group " Is everyone here and ok?"
" Well.....now....we are.." A weak voice said.
They all turned and saw a very bad looking Tsukasa. Everyone looked bad, but him had to be the worse. Kite looked worried " What happened?! Are you ok?!!"
Tsukasa looked a little surprise at his worry but quickly let it passed " Yeah....I got a surprise attack from Shadow himself....I have some bad news.......they got Haseo..." he said weakly while leaning on nearby wall.
" Oh no!" Atoli exclaimed.
Suddenly something hit Kite. He began to inspect himself and came to a horrifying realization " The talisman! I don't have it!!"
Shugo looked ashamed " Sorry Kite...I wasn't fast enough.."
Kite looked shocked " No..." he said in a low tone " They got everything....we are....loosing? How are we going to stop them now." he said getting frustrated.
" Fear not Kite they still don't have the Key of Twilight. We still have a chance." Yata said trying to comfort their distress leader.
" Why bother! If by some miracle we find the key Shadow will simply use force to take it out of our hands!!" he stated. He took one look on his group until his eyes landed on Shugo who seemed to be the one in better shape. Kite raised a brow " Shugo."
Said player jumped at the mention of his name " Y-Yes?"
" Why is it that you look a hell of a lot better than all of us? You yourself had fought against Shadow and yet you are not as near bruised or mauled like you should look. You fought against the strongest guy in 'The World' and you got away with a few minor bruises, small cuts, and apparently a bruised cheek, why is that?" The rest of the group looked at him with a questionable look.
" He fought against Shadow Kite?!! But he looked like he just had a fight with a little goblin!" Rena said in disbelieve.
Shugo pouted before he sighted ' This is going to be an uncomfortable explanation.' he thought.
' Tell me about it.' Ash replied.
