Chapter 20
Klaxon sends out a wave of Convexity by slamming his foot into the ground and Tails dodges it to stalk off into the shadows. Klaxon looks around calmly yet cautiously before turning his arm into cannon. The occasional tap to a tree alerted Klaxon of where Tails was.
'So that's his plan...' thought Klaxon smirking before he fired at a tree he was certain Tails was behind. The blast wiped out at least another five trees and Klaxon smirked before he was struck from behind with kick to the head. He stumbled forward before he righted himself and turned around.
"Impossible! How are you that fast?" said Klaxon reverting his arm to normal and bringing out his claws.
"I'm not, when I felt for sure you thought my tactic was to tap the trees to get your attention Ii just hid in another tree and threw a pebble at the tree you just blew up. Hey Zetsu." said Tails.
"Owwwwwww." said the plant man as his body was smoking from the blast.
"If you'll excuse us we're gonna take a break. And an aspirin." said Zetsu before he walked off.
"Okay, now that's clever, he'll make a good student." said Zabuza from a tree branch.
"You haven't seen anything yet." said Tails getting into a stance.
"You're right and...TOBI NOW!" said Klaxon before he disappeared in black mist at which point Tobi burst from the ground.
"It's all set!" said Tobi flashing a double thumbs up. The masked ninja then hopped away leaving Tails confused before he looked down and saw a clay bomb sticking out of the ground.
"Oh crud..." muttered Tails before he was consumed in an explosion.
"Yay! Tobi won! Tobi's a good boy." said Tobi jumping with joy.
While Tobi is gloating, Tails gets a saw and "silently" starts cutting down a tree. Tobi finally stops when he hears creaking and turns around to have a tree land on him and his head pops out the top. Tails enlist a stick for the job of a golf club and walks up to Tobi.
"Hey! No fair! You're supposed to yell 'Timber!' when cutting down a tree!" said Tobi struggling to get free.
Tails ignores him and repeatedly whacks Tobi on the head with the "golf club" until he hears something loud heading towards him and avoids a Plasma Bolt which...
"EEEEEEEEKKK!"
...nearly hits Tobi but he phases out of the tree and blows the tree up instead sending splinters everywhere. Tobi jumps onto a tree branch upside down and makes hand-signs.
"Hidden Jutsu! Frilled-neck Lizard!" yells Tobi as his cloak falls down behind his head. Tails looks at him confused for several seconds, "[Nervous chuckle] That's all there is to this jutsu. But it makes a great distraction! Bye-bye!"
Tobi runs off through the trees leaving Tails confused until he's grabbed by his feet and thrown into a few trees. Tails then barely dodged a kick meant for his head and side-rolled to avoid an axe-kick.
"Tails, you're holding back." stated Klaxon crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes.
"H-how can you tell?" asked Tails shocked.
"Your actions speak volumes. I'm not gonna go beserk but I want an actual fight. Hit me with everything you got."
Plasma Casters then emerge from Klaxon's shoulders and Tails barely dodges the bolts fired at him.
"ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?!" snapped Tails and Klaxon chuckled.
"If I was you'd already be dead on the ground and your skull a new trophy." said Klaxon clenching his fist and sounding incredibly dark that freaked Tails out, "But I'm not like that." finished Klaxon his voice friendly, serious, and a bit insane. Tails then had to dodge a smart disc that embedded itself in the tree behind him. He didn't dodge the disc fired from the first that grazed his side, slicing off fur and only fur.
"Heh. Oops." said Klaxon shrugging before he made hand-signs, "Chidori!"
The sound of a thousand birds chirping filled the air and Tails barely dodged the lightning based attack that took out the tree behind him. Tails then dodged a tail swing and took to the skies with his namesake.
"That the best you got? I'm not even tryi-oh dear." said Tails before he realized his mistake.
"Not trying? (eye twitches) NOT TRYING?!" yelled Klaxon.
"Uh oh, I have a bad feeling..." said Tobi appearing next to Tails. Klaxon turns into his Hybrid Form.
*Wolf-Dragon Howl/Roar*
"Come on Tails! Let's see what you're able to do!" said Klaxon with a wolf grin on his face.
"Last time you went in this form you couldn't control." said Tails.
"I learn quickly. Hybrid Bullet!" yelled Klaxon before a massive orb formed around Klaxon's tail blade and then fired itself at Tails who barely dodged and the resulting explosion destroyed 50 trees in a straight line, Zetsu emerged from a ruined tree.
"That's the second time today! One more time and we quit!" said Zetsu before he disappeared into the ground. Klaxon shrugged before he charged Tails but missed and went through a tree instead but cam charging back before unleashing a green fireball at the vulpine who easily dodged it.
"Come on Tails! This is no fun!" said Klaxon before he launched a Convexity Ball at Tails that narrowly missed the vulpine. Klaxon then slams his hands/paws into the ground and golden Rahkshi emerge and advance towards Tails who fights back but gets overwhelmed.
"What a disappointment." complained Klaxon, "Oh well. I win!"
"Not yet!" yelled Tails throwing off the Rahkshi one at a time before he ripped the last one in half.
"OH! AH-HA! DON'T rip them apart like that!" said Klaxon clutching his stomach. He then noticed Tails was in his Feral Form, due to the yellow eyes and he got up and cracked his knuckles. Both charge and get locked in strength battle which Tails loses and winds up having an arm dislocated which he snaps back into place sending shivers down Haku's and Tobi's spine.
"Eh, I've seen worse." said Zabuza.
"I've dislocated a wing and had it put back in place." muttered Klaxon before he slammed his hand/paw into the ground that created a shockwave of earth that Tails had to dodge only to get grabbed, locked into a position where he couldn't move, and slammed headfirst into ground while spinning. Tails gets up unsteadily and looks around for Klaxon only to get a punch to jaw, gut, and shin at the same time, he then feels pressure points on his arms get hit and they go limp and numb.
"Hybrid Bullet!"
Tails barely dodged the orb as it exploded and destroyed another 50 trees in a row and Zetsu was standing in the wake of destruction.
"Okay, we're down for today. Goodbye." said Zetsu before he submerged himself into the ground. During this distraction, Tails grabs one of Klaxon's arms in his jaws and rips it off only to have it regrow and Tails spits it to the side before he gets a solid spin-kick to the jaw that sends him flying into a tree. He tries to get up when he hears a voice in his head.
'Hmm, so this is the host, how interesting, if a little tight.' said the voice. Tails clutches his head as the voice whispers but it sounds more like hissing, unaware of the figure behind him.
"Get away from him you snake!" yelled Klaxon before he unleashed a green fireball at the pale man who barely dodged it. Klaxon appeared in front of the pale skinned man and grabbed him before he threw him through some trees and fired a Convexity Beam from his cannon arm and smirked before he reverted it back to normal went on all fours due to his Hybrid Form.
"That wasn't one of my clones...how'd Orochimaru get here?" muttered Klaxon to himself as he walked over to Tails who is clutching his head.
"No...get out." said Tails quietly.
"Tails? You okay?"
"Get away!"
Klaxon disappears in black mist, Tobi makes a run for it, Zabuza and Haku flicker away. Tails whips his head up and screams in pain. Klaxon reappears a few miles away and watches the forest area get destroyed. Klaxon narrows his eyes before turning his left eye cybernetic and scans the area Tails is in.
'Finally talking to me again, hmm? Scan complete. Readings show increase of Dark Engeries, most originating from Tails. Caution is advised but you seem to throw caution to the wind.'
Klaxon sighed as he returned his eye to normal. Same old Negative. He guessed he'd have to check Tails' mind later, right now he needed a break. He returned to normal and entered the town and got a root beer and was reclining on a bench when a teen walks up to him. The teen wore a very convincing dragon costume. The teen had black scales that didn't reflect any light and white bone skull mask was on his face (like Cubone from Pokémon), his claws looked as though they were made of steel, his underbelly was white, and he laced an "actual" tail blade but instead space distorted around the tip in the form of a curved scimitar. The teen leaned on the nearby lamp-post looking at him.
"What do you want kid?" said Klaxon, "And enough with dragon costume."
"It's no costume and you should know me Klaxon." said the teen looking at him.
"Sorry, don't recognize you, although your scent is somewhat familiar..."
"That's because I'm the son of Alex."
Klaxon spit out the root beer he had in his mouth and then choked on his own air and coughed before he could breath again.
"WHAT?!" said Klaxon shocked.
