Here it is, as I said, a faster update this time. This time you will see: what was Ness' idea to help with Lucas/Claus problem. Anyway...without further ado, please enjoy Chapter 3-Life already got a plan for Us
Innocence. Thanks, glad you are liking it.
Today is the day, Ness told he had an idea for our –Claus and mine- problem. I open my eyes slowly, according to the clock over the TV it is eleven o'clock, I turn to my left to see that Ness is not there….I quickly sit up; I should get my clothes and see where Ness is.
After taking my time to comb my hair and changing my clothes to more appropriate ones to go out, I leave the room, to head to…I sigh, where could Ness be?
"Morning, Lucas," It's Samus, but with a different suit this time: a blue skintight suit that covers her whole body with the exception of her head letting her long blonde hair shown. I should ask her about Ness, she may know.
"Morning, Samus. Hey, have you seen Ness?"
She takes a hand to her chin trying to remember something "Yeah, it was a lot earlier, though. He was having breakfast in the dinning hall-" I think Samus was going to say something more, but it is all I need. Thanking her with a quick gesture I run off to the dinning hall, expecting Ness to be there. But as soon as I arrive I realize he is not there, instead I find Lucario and Link in a table eating.
"Hey, Lucas, over here." Link calls me, I walk up to the table and take a sit aside Lucario, he offers me an apple, which I would normally reject, but I'm hungry. I nod with a smile and take the apple.
"Hello, guys. Have you seen Ness?" I ask them giving a bite to the apple.
"I haven't, have you, Lucario?" Link shakes his head.
"Let me think…" Lucario take a couple of seconds before he resumes talking "He told me, he was going to see Master Hand but didn't tell me why?"
"That will work," I say, now that I know where he is, I should look for him, but where is MH…? "Where I can find Master Hand?"
Lucario and Link look at each other for a second, "We can accompany you there," If Ness is doing what he told me yesterday, Link and Lucario can find out about Claus…
'I think it is okay Luke, they are as reliable as Ness'
"Okay, let's go."
We leave the dinning hall, and go back to my room's corridor, but we continue forwards to get to the lobby. There we go downstairs and take the left flight of stairs, where a huge door is standing, it reads 'Master Hand's office, enter if you dare.' Quite silly...
Link knocks the door calling for the Hand "Can we come in?"
"Sure!" What I think it's MH's voice, calls back in response. Lucario slowly pushes the door, then we enter, Master Hand is calmly resting in a chair that adapts to his whole body –well, hand-.
"What you need?" He asks us.
"We were searching for Ness, have you seen him?" Lucario acquires. The hand settles back on his chair before he points to his left where a door is. Link frowns at the gesture, not understanding, I would say.
"He is there!" MH exclaims.
We nod at the same time and proceed to walk to the door. Is Ness here? What is he doing? There are a lot of questions in my head, and along the eagerness about for the possibility of having my brother with me again it makes me excited. I open the door, and there he is, standing at the end of the room –which is not really big-, in his hand, a phone. He casts a smile when he sees us entering into the room, but before we can talk, he beckons us to not make noise, which is acceptable.
We decide to take seat in some chairs on our side of the room. I can't stop staring at Ness like I'm trying to read his lips, but it's obviously futile, reading his mind…I can't either, he is a psychic too, the only option left is to wait. I'm in between Link and Lucario, I feel like the latter one is still trying to decipher me, even when it doesn't matter because I will tell them eventually, it still bugs me.
Ness' conversation continues for several minutes, even though Link and Lucario are already yawning from boredom, my eyes are still very aware of what is going on, I'm sitting straight in my chair, eager to know when Ness is going to finish his call. Finally…I heard a "take care" from Ness, he set the phone down, there is where I look at him wondering if what he was doing was for me or not. "Sorry for taking so much time." He says to the three of us, but then turns to me, "I was talking with a friend that might help with-" Ness stops, maybe he remembered that Lucario and Link are here…
'You should let the know about me, better know than later'
Yeah…I will. "It's okay, Ness, I'll tell them about my brother…" Link gaze tells me he knows nothing about what I'm talking about, but Lucario quickly connects the dots and discreetly look at me, maybe he already have an idea.
"your brother-" He halts himself to look at me with an amused face, I can not see myself, but I'm sure I look really eager. "He is a good friend of mine, one of the smartest persons you will ever meet, I mean; he is not expert in splitting two persons back again," There it is! The reaction I was waiting for, when Ness finished that sentence, Lucario's head jerked to me, his eyes widen… "but he is a genius in genetics, DNA and all that stuff."
That sounds pretty convincing "Great!" I exclaim, "When is he going to come?"
"He told me he needed to bring some stuff for any situation, so I think he will need some time for that...maybe at night."
'I never thought we would be so close...'
I know, it seems unreal…but, we can't be sure if it will work anyways, so try to don't get excited.
"Wait, wait-" Links enters in the conversation waving his arms all around "I don't want to be meddlesome, but what are you talking about?"
"Link…" Lucario whispers, maybe scolding Link, well at least he respect my privacy…but it doesn't matter, I will tell them.
"No, it's okay, I should tell you," The next minutes, I explained a shortened version of what Ness knows already…again…it was painful to explain some parts, I was staring to the floor most of my talk, but they know now…
"That explains everything…" Lucario says and then proceed to get up from his seat to walk up to me –just like Ness- "I'm sorry, it is obvious that you have had a tough past, but now you are with us, and we will do everything to help you." He finishes patting me in the shoulder.
"Your history truly impresses me, Lucas, not only because of what you have gone to, but also 'cause of your determination and how you haven't give up in all this time. You have me on your side, whatever...just ask." Link finishes leaving me with a thankful smile. I'm glad that they had understand and not only that, they are willing to help me.
The rest of the day went eventless. The guys gave me a tour through most of the mansion, it is enormous, we didn't finish visiting all of the sections, but at least I feel more familiar now. I met other two...persons, maybe?
While in the main lawn of the mansion, we bumped into a giant blue hedgehog -I swear, if I haven't seen all kind of monsters back home I would have had a stroke already-, he was quite friendly, his name is Sonic. Apart from the word hedgehog there was not a lot else, he was merely wearing a pair of red shoes and white gloves -And again...he was blue!-. I do not even know if he listened to my name, he would not stop telling me all of his adventures along with some jokes in them. In resume, he is another person worth knowing.
The other one was a small -slightly smaller than Boney- yellow mouse, he doesn't speak human language, but thanks to telepathy I could understand him, his name: Pikachu. He told me he came from the same World as Lucario -Something I didn't understand, I did not waste time asking, though- and that he controls electricity. Unlike Sonic, he didn't talk a lot, but he was still a nice friend to know.
Finally, Lucario and Link showed me their dormitory -As Ness and myself, they share as well-, it was a lot different than ours, in Link's side I found all kind of items, from a empty bottle to arrows that emitted beautiful light, in his bed's wall Link had a whole connection of masks, he told me to never touch them, he must have his reasons...
In Lucario's side everything was so calmed; he had different candles with kind scents to the nose. A bed that was even simpler than mine back in Tazmily and a rug adjacent to his bed, it was very soft and comfortable.
Right now is nighttime and we are in the lobby of the mansion waiting for Ness' friend. Whatever we will do I hope doesn't take too much, I haven't eat in all day long, but there is no time for whining. I turn to the clock above the entrance of the mansion; it reads twenty past eight, when is he going to arrive?
We wait for another fifteen minutes until we notice lights –like from a car- outside the mansion, I get up to get a better view of whoever is going to enter through the crystal doors. Everyone else stay in their seats, but they are still paying as much attention as me. Footsteps can he heard getting close until they stop to open the door. Hands pushes the crystal doors, the person slowly enters in sight until I see him…
'What? Andonuts!'
I gasp in surprise, it is Dr. Andonuts, he was the last person I imagined to see entering through those doors.
'But how…This means Ness knows Andonuts'
Ness looks at me for a moment, he is confused of why I gasped, but he quickly shrugs it off, "Lucas, he is Doctor Andonuts, a well-"
"I know him," I say, Ness frowns as well as the other two "he had helped me before…"
"Ness! How are you…" Dr. Andonuts said happily but trails off as soon as he sees me, everyone is confused in here! "Lucas? Is this the place your father told me you were coming? Interesting."
'Dad told him?'
"Wait, how you know each other?" Ness intervenes. Unfortunately that's the question I'm asking myself as well. Is not mere curiosity like Ness'…Is something I need to know.
"Well, I have known him for maybe two years," I say.
"Really? Me as well." Ness responds, I would like to clarify this already, I'm eager to know what will be of Claus, but this mystery is important too. "Any idea doc?"
"None." Andonuts mutter. Hmm, Pikachu told me he came from the same world as Lucario…If both of us –Ness and I- know Dr. Andonuts, do we come from the same world? But that's not possible, there is no world! The only place left is the Nowhere Islands, and most of its habitants live in Tazmily.
We fall in deep thought; the lobby suddenly gets silenced, while Ness, Andonuts and I think, Lucario and Link simply look at us waiting for the first idea, until the doc speaks up. "I don't see the problem in this, why don't we continue?" Maybe he is right, but I'll just postpone the mystery for later, Claus is more important.
'Thanks'
"He is right," Link stands up joining us three in our small circle, "It's getting late, we should start working."
"Alright!" Dr. Andonuts claps, "There is some stuff in my truck that I will need, if you guys would be so kind to bring it here." We nod and proceed to exit the building.
"You gotta be kidding me!" Ness says, I do not blame him, in front of us there is a moving truck, it looks like Andonuts brought his whole lab...I hope not. Before continuing the task I glance back, the doctor already grabbed a pillow and laid down on a sofa in the lobby. Lucario walks up to the back of the truck to open the sliding door, I was right, a whole group of items and tools are sitting in there waiting for us to take them.
'Uff, this will take a while'
We start with the smallest items to open space for the bigger ones, the whole process of taking every single piece of equipment from the truck to the lobby takes us at least forty five minutes until everything is inside, Lucario closes the truck door and we enter the mansion.
"Good work, guys!" Dr. Andonuts tells us sitting up from the sofa.
"What is all this mess!" A voice booms in the hall, it startles all of us, is when we glance everywhere when we find Master Hand coming downstairs hovering.
"Oh, no." Link mutters.
"I want an explanation!" Master Hand demands, now what?
"Excuse us Master Hand, is just that Ness discovered a power that attracted my attention," Link cleaned his throat and continued "so I found out I could combine it with some of my equipment, but as you see, we needed some technology."
'Nice lie'
"Okay, but please take all of this to another place; I don't want my fountain blew up," Master Hand retorts...That only means…
"C'mon! Let's move this again!" I shout, and everyone huffs in annoyance.
Another half an hour went by, we moved everything from the lobby to a more suitable spacious room that it looked like it was a lab in the past. At this point there is not a lot more we can do to help, it is Dr. Andonuts' turn now. He has told me how his idea will work so I decide to dash off to my room to get some clothes for my brother. I grab a pair of denim short, underpants and a striped shirt, everything mine.
'Two years together…Lucas'
Yeah, but it has to end, it is for the best, besides, remember that our goal here was not only to bring you back but you know what else.
'Is just that it seems unreal, I will be able to once again smell the flowers, see a sunset with my own eyes and more important…to be with my family again'
Those last words made me sigh in happiness, I just hope it all works. After finishing getting the clothes, I open the door to leave to the lab room, but I bump into someone.
"Ready?" It is Link, I can tell that as me, he is also happy, maybe Claus is not his brother nor someone has been caged inside him, but I still see happiness…maybe he feels happy for me.
"Yeah, a little nervous, though…" I state, finally getting rid of those words. Yes, I'm nervous and afraid it might now work.
"Don't worry, everything will go fine, before you can realize it, you will be with your brother again." He tells me.
I would like to say that he is right, but after all I have gone by, I have learnt to never expect something to go by my way. "I know, maybe I am just nervous of seeing my brother again…it has been so much time."
"Come on, the doctor is almost done." He beckons me to follow. I didn't notice it, another twenty minutes went by. I only came from some clothes!
"You're back, good. See, this is how it will work…" Dr. Andonuts tells me, I start following him from the entrance to the lab to where I see a pair of machines, I have never seen them, so they must be a new invention. "You will get into this space," He opens one of the machines, it kind of looks like an Instant revitalizing machine, it has a oval shape, it is mostly gray with the exception of the door which is black with a small sign. It stands on three legs; several cables are coming out from the top and connect to the other machine at its legs. When Dr. Andonuts opened the door of it I notice smoke on the floor of it. In the inside is pretty simple, a small space for only one person, the base color is black and it has a huge thing hanging from the top, like something that would go on whoever is inside's head. "We connect that thing into your head, and your brother should slowly materialize in…" He gives a couple of steps to get to the other machine, "here."
'I wonder how it works…'
"Wait, you are going to make his brother appear from thin air, how is that possible?" Ness asks observing from the other end of the room along with Lucario and Link.
"It is not from thin air…and it would take me sometime to explain it." Andonuts then turns to me "Are you ready?" I nod assured by my friends' words that everything will go just fine.
I'm prepared mentally, I leave my clothes into the machine in which Claus will materialize, I give one more glance back to my friends before entering…
"Excuse me?" That voice is Luigi along with his brother. "I lost something the other day, would you please leave for a second so the Alloys can help me finding it?"
I sigh, this just ruined my momentum…I walk away the machine and proceed to leave the room with everyone else, after we are out of the lab, Luigi thanks us with a quick gesture and order at least twenty Alloys to raid the room. Not even a minute past before all of the Alloys are done, Luigi and Mario then leave the room. "Thanks, we found it." Mario says waving a small object in his hand, nothing important.
We enter the room again; this time my heart beating a lot faster, maybe my brain just realized what I'm going to do, separate my head into two pieces.
'You make it sound even worst'
"Let's start this. Lucas, please step in the machine." Dr. Andonuts says taking his position aside some controls adjacent to both machines.
I enter in the machine, then I look at the doc, wondering what that thing over me is for. "Oh, put that in your head. It may hurt, so be ready." He finishes.
I nod. I stare for a second at the small extension of the machine and place it on my head; it covers mostly of it, leaving only my face to be seen. "Ness, please close the door." Andonuts asks Ness, he obey and walk up to the machine.
"We'll be waiting for you two, good luck." Ness smiles, he closes the door and now I'm alone inside, there is no noise to be heard. I'm now alone…
'Yeah, alone'
Almost alone. The artifact is already in my head, in any moment Dr. Andonuts will turn on the machine, whatever it does, if it hurts or not, I don't care, we are minutes away from Claus being free again.
The blackness of the little room that is in here disturbs me a little, but it is okay, there is a small though blurred window in front of me, at least I can see my friends are in there. I try to keep myself calmed down, but suddenly I see vapor coming out from the floor am standing on, it covers my whole sight and makes it a little harder to breath. Everything starts spinning; the only thing that keeps me from falling is the small space in the machine making my body lean on the wall unwittingly. I my smell starts going away quickly, my ears are deafen by a buzz, I try to feel the vapor with my hands and fail, my eyes start closing and everything goes black…
Apparently I'm unconscious, at least my body, I am still aware of what is going on –I can even count the seconds-, I can't move nor even see. So, this is how Claus sees the world from here –with the exception that he can see through my eyes-, is pretty lonely in here. I guess my brother is not here anymore, I can't feel him, he would have talked by now.
If I was conscious I would be writhing, I started feeling extreme pain from nowhere, it is like my head is getting slammed repetitively against spikes.
And then...everything stops leaving me with a feeling of a huge weight being lifted from me.
The pain starts slowing down; I feel my senses coming back to me. Not more than three minutes went by. I start opening my eyes, the vapor has vanished, and I'm in a sitting position, I notice the shape of a familiar face in the small window…Claus? No…it is Ness. He opens the door and helps me get up, behind him, Lucario and Link helping me to stay standing. "Lucas!" They exclaim at the same time.
I am still dizzy by the machine's job in me, but I accomplish to ask something. "Where is my brother?"
"We haven't checked, you should be the first one to see him," Link says, he and Lucario let me go so I can get out of the machine. Staggering I quickly approach to the other twin machine where Dr. Andonuts told me Claus would materialize. With the corner of my eye I notice Dr. Andonuts and the others gathering close to me.
"Okay...here I go..." I take a breath before proceeding. I try to peek through the small window in the door, but it is tarnished. No more waiting! I clasp the doorknob tightly...wait a second and swiftly open the metal door...I hear several gasps from my friends before I go back to the reality...the vapor vanishes...and there is...no one to be seen. My brother is not here, not even his clothes...he is not HERE! My gaze falls to the floor, "Where is he?" I ask but no one responds, "Where is he?" Again, no one speaks. I feel I am going berserk. I turn around slowly with the most cold and intimidating eyes a living being can see. "I say, where is HE!" I yell, they quickly back up.
"Lucas...L-Lucas, we do not know." Ness barely says. I can smell the fear in his words. I quickly turn to Andonuts and stare sternly at him, he tries to back up, but the wall blocks him...You can not escape!
"I don't know either, I swear." He talks me like a stranger...he fears for his life...He better does!
"Of course you KNOW!" I yell again, my voice cracking... "You are the genius here, how can you not know!" I demand an answer.
"L-Lucas, please, this was just a teleporting machine, I-I modified it so it could work for this situation..." Andonuts trails off as soon as he realizes his stupidity.
"WORK!" I am losing my mind, and quickly. I better get answers or something. "Your damned machine just worsened everything!" I start breathing faster trying to retain myself from doing something they would regret. "You told me everything was going to go well."
"Lucas, calm down, he already told you he doesn't know what happened." Lucario speaks up, calmed as ever, what is his problem...maybe this was their plan from the beginning...What would Claus suggest? Claus...CLAUS! My rage is still building up until I hear more gasps -these comes from dread and terror-. I feel strange, I feel a familiar and at the same time powerful energy. I glance downwards and keep my gaze there...a stream of white energy that is coming from the floor -it created a small crater where is coming out from- and directed to my hand is what is emitting that feeling...
Is this PK Love? I forgot for a second how it looked like, but it is here, in my hand. I bring my head upwards to face my 'friends' again. This time smirking –even though I am crying from the inside, another member of my family is gone-…I won't hesitate this time, I should destroy them now that I have the opportunity to, they must be just another puppet of Him.
"Don't do it!" Link shouts. It looks like he already knows what is in my mind, it doesn't change anything.
"Shut up! I will not fall in your trap!" I shout back, they won't trick me; I must eliminate them now before they do more harm.
"Lucas," Ness says in a low voice "why you say that? You think we enjoy seeing you like this, you think we made this up…no, we didn't, please stop!" I hesitate for a second…NO! I must continue. The power on my hand increases in size destroying a huge chunk of the floor.
I throw my hand backwards breaking another part of the floor as the power slides following my hand's direction. I must eliminate all of them, they have caused the lost of another member of my family, is not fair, they must pay.
They get in a fighting stance…Ha! They think they have an opportunity against PK Love, funny. Before releasing my attack, I hear the door slamming open, I don't care who is it…I must continue with the carnage. But I react too late, a whistle is heard and at the next moment someone is trying to retain me, I see his hands, it is Sonic. "Lucas, stop!" He yells, but I don't listen.
I swing my right arm trying to get Sonic off of me, he backs up and tries to response with a punch, I tilt to the left dodging his punch, I think for a second in using my PK Love against him –he must be another puppet-, but I lost concentration and the power disappeared. I get a moment to overcome the fastest creature alive and return a punch straight to the face; he falls and slides a couple of meters. I hear several feet rushing towards me, I glance to where my "friends" used to be and they are approaching quickly, I turn around swiftly to escape from the room, but before I open the door, someone else do it for me. Mario is standing in front of me, his gloves are ablaze, he glares and launches a haymaker making my ears go deafen and my world turns black…
Four days since my brother has been gone…I don't know what was of him, if he suffered as much as I did inside of that devil's machine. I can not believe I trusted on those people, they appeared friendly, but NO! They were not; they betrayed my trust on them. I'm out of ideas, with Claus gone and I trapped in this hell there is no much I can do.
The organization had "forgiven" me for the incident four days ago. They said it was a normal reaction, but I do not care what they think, it was not my fault.
I have stayed in my room for the lasts days, Ness had –cleverly- decided to stay on someone else's room since I don't even want to see him; I haven't eat other thing than the snacks that are in the mini fridge I have in the room. I tried to decipher what went wrong that day -if it is even true that something went wrong-. But I have no clue. What does Andonuts said…? "This was just a teleporting machine…" He said he simply modified it, but the base was a teleporting machine. Hmm, "materialize…" that means that the modified machine was programmed to separate and reattach, and a normal teleporting machine acts the same, like the ones I used to come here and to get in the arena…separate and reattach.
I'm in thought until I hear someone knocking the door, I forget my calmness, and I do not want to see anybody here. "Go away!" I shout, I hope he or she have got the message.
"It is me, Luigi," he responds me. But, why he doesn't get the message!
"Go away!" I repeat.
"I am coming in!" He advices me, please, don't let him come in, I'm not in the state to receive visits.
With a beep from the door it slides open, Luigi is there, and he enters into the room looking too confident…I glare at him; I was being sincere when I said I didn't want visits, but he still looks confident. "How are you feeling?"
Seriously! Why does he ask that! "Like crap!" I shout in his face, "Now, go away."
He chuckles in a low tone "It has been sometime, Lucas, and you are still the same."
The same..? "Exactly, Lucas, you are the same," Did he just answered my question…is he a psychic or something?
"You are so naive, and what I meant was that everyone around always die." He stopped to smirk "You are a killing machine!" Is he referring to Claus…?
"No, Lucas, I'm not referring to that lifeless robot!" He called Claus a lifeless robot…No…I stagger backwards losing my balance and falling down on my bed. How he knows? "I am referring to your mommy and not only her but to all the other people you couldn't save. You are a failure!" No, no, NO! I won't let anyone talk like that…I rush towards him, ready to launch a PK Fire, but before I can do something, he swings his arm in my direction flinging me into the wall breaking part of it.
"How...how you know?" I ask standing up.
He laughs and shakes his head in amusement. "Oh come on, you have forgot me already, it has been only two years..." No, it can not be, I should ask to clarify, but the simple idea of who is he is restraining me of thinking clearly.
"You are right, Lucas. I have returned!" That is it! I regain my posture and give off a war cry before attempting to launch another PK Fire. He reacts quickly, backhanding the fireball and jumping towards me. I give a couple of steps backwards to evade him, but he had my move read. With his hand ablaze he casts a stream of green fire in my direction, I can only respond rising a small PSI Shield, unfortunately for me it only shielded the upper part of my body, burning with low damage my legs. I easily ignore the pain and try to approach again.
"C'mon, give your best shot." He starts laughing again to then turn so I can face his cheek in a mocking sense. This can be a trap, but my rage blinds me. Trap or not, back in the islands the Magypsies told me that if a psychic is controlling someone's body and he or she dies in the process, the controller will not be able to return to his body. That means if I manage to kill him in Luigi's body I will let him helplessly.
I use PK Freeze on gamma level to freeze his body, this gives enough time to take out Claus' sword from under the bed, I turn it on and without even thinking, three huge gamma level thunders comes out of it. He sees them coming and his smile gets bigger. When the thunders crash the solid ice caging him explodes. A cloud of smoke covers the room for a moment, when it dissipates it reveals him lying on the floor almost unconscious.
"Nice..." he mutters and smirks again.
"What is going on in there!" Someone shouts from the other side of the door, I think it is Mario, I face the door and use a PK Freeze so they can't open it.
"No one will interrupt us...Porky." I say returning my attention to Porky who is still on the floor defenseless. I walk up to him, and duck to his height to see him in his eyes. "You think you are walking out alive of this one?"
He shrugs. "I don't know…That is your decision." Unlike Dr. Andonuts or Ness' near death experience with me, I can not see dread in Porky's eyes, but it is okay, I will cause it. I glare at him, he smirks again. I won't let him enjoy my suffering. I pull my left hand backwards and bring it as fast as I can into his face, then I do the same with my right hand. I repeat the process a couple of times...his face is already swollen, but that does not stop Porky from smirking.
I must stop him."Are you done?" He says with difficulty though still trying to make me even angrier. "Your brother gave a better fight!"
"Do...not...MENTION HIM!" I yell at him.
"Lucas, open the door, NOW!"
"We are going to have to break in!" Different people shout from outside the room, now I reckon not only Mario, but Master Hand, plus anyone else that is trying to break in.
"DO IT!" I challenge them. I take Luigi's body -which is lying on the wall- and drag it to the other end where the beds are. I turn to the door's wall again and with a PK Freeze omega level cover the whole wall with ice.
I return my attention to the monster in here and crack my knuckles, my left hand gets covered on fire, and my left one gets embraced with ice. "Let's see how much you enjoy this." I growl.
His response is blank. I start punishing him again. While my left hand -the one covered with fire- damage his face with each strike burning his skin, my right hand slowly finish with his life. Seconds later, he is almost unconscious; the next blow will finish him. But I deserve a more enjoyable way to kill him. I concentrate and from my hand a white ball of energy appears quickly connecting to the ground...PK Love.
"This ends NOW!" I grab Porky by his collar with my right hand and thrash his head against the wall creating a dent. I throw my left hand backwards to give some momentum with my PK Love, everything is set-
"Falcon punch!" A cry attracts my attention; I turn to the door to see how chunks of it along with the wall start going down to finally open space for the whole crowd outside my room to raid the place. Mario is the first one to step in followed my MH, Link, Ness, Lucario and other seven persons unknown to me.
The first one gasps as he sees his brother on the floor bleeding, he then turns to me to see the destructive power on my hand, he starts running towards me, the others do the same.
"Good bye, Lucas..." Porky mutters and everyone else but us two slow down.
No! Where is he going, I'm so close to finish this...
I would stay, but I have to go hunting...you know, your brother is still out there...
His words echo in my head followed by another maniac laugh. Luigi's body goes limp and everything comes back to normal. "PORKY!" I yell as I try to release my PK Love in him, but someone tackles me to the ground making the attack land on the wall adjacent to Luigi's body, destroying it.
I elbow whoever tackled me, it was Mario. He quickly recovers from the hit and stands up glaring at me. "What you did?"
I see hate in his eyes, I glance to my back where Luigi is, his body unconscious, if not dead. I understand his hate, perhaps I'm now the enemy, the puppet…NO! I have a mission and I will achieve it at whatever cost. He tries to run towards me, but I deflect him –along with everyone else- with a psychic shockwave.
"What is your problem?" Someone from the small crowd asks, but I don't have time for answers…
They strike fighting poses and prepare to attack…I have to react fast! My mental stamina is already low, but I manage to do a final move. "PK Flash!" I exclaim releasing an enormous light with electric properties, blinding or paralyzing everyone in the room. I grab Claus' sword –which I dropped after using it against Porky- and my Courage badge, I turn around to face the big hole on the wall, and jump through it landing on one of the mansion's garden. I don't have time…If I'm not wrong; in the other side is the lobby.
Carelessly I aim with the thunder sword at the wall and cry "PK Thunder!" The –weak- alpha level thunder barely destroyed the wall, I run through the hole and in the lobby quickly search for the exit. The crystal doors start sealing with a metal one, in response I slash through the metal with sword in hand and exit the building swiftly.
Now where? I glance everywhere; there are not a lot of options…Except one...the city! I look around and find it at the distance. Is the only place I can go for the time being. I start running as fast as I can even though my body tells me it can't give more.
Still running, I glance one more time back to the mansion. Red lights flashing, alarms sounding and the blood of an 'innocent' in my hands.
So, all of this leave us with Lucas running for his life to an unknown place for him. Expect to know the city in the next chapter. By the way, tell me what you think of those two confrontations, I think they came out pretty well, but I'm open for opinions. Also, the next chapter will take sometime, because this time I want to update my other history.
