Chapter 20 the revealed truth

Hi guys, sorry for the late update. By the way I hope you like this new chapter.

P.S: in the chapter is present a little summary of my story "age of legends –fire and dakness-"

After beating Mortis, the demon of anger. Astral still had one last opponent to face. His negative spirit was right in front of him. his green reptilian eyes had a look of invisible anger, and what he wanted was the final clash, which would decide the fate of Barkinburg. Rakto started slowly approaching to Astral

Rakto: I 'm quite surprised. Mortis had every chance of killing you, but despite your disadvantage you managed to beat him. The fact that you have defeated all the demons of destruction makes me very nervous, but now that we are finally face to face I feel more relaxed, because unlike Mortis I can make the most of my opportunities and I know that you have no hope against me

Astral: stay back !

The purifier drew his golden sword and pointed the weapon at the enemy in warning, but Rakto did not fear the purifier, but he knew a small debit point that would make him harmless.

Rakto: is this the way to treat your old acquaintance? For now I do not want to fight you, Astral ... or maybe I should say "Rakto"

As soon as Astral heard his real name, he felt another strange sensation like if something were blocking him and his forehead was wet...it was fear.

Astral's mind: how did he recognize me?

Meanwhile, the princess seemed quite confused.

Princess: what are you talking about?

Rakto: Oh ... you haven't told her yet. Right? Well, my dear little girl. You must know that your greatest friend, Astral, is not really a human, but it is only my positive spirit. It's only his fault, if right now I'm here on this planet and this city is now in chaos

Rakto (evil spirit) POV

Thirty years ago, Rakto lived on the planet Sora with his brother, Flame. The latter discovered that he had become the warrior of the fire, but I had also spied what was happening at the time and I reported everything to our chief of the return of the warriors of the elements. And we were certain that someone would be served who would have hindered their attempt to reunite, and who could have done it if not Flame's brother?

And so the Rakto's mind was controlled by Crudelion, the old chief of Darkus. the island where all of us obsidian monsters were in exile and when Rakto arrived from Crudelion I took control of his body turning him into an obsidian monster, giving him the dark power.

For a long time I managed to dominate his body, everything seemed to go according to plan, and after attacking the most important kingdom of the planet Sora we thought that by now the warriors of the elements had been defeated. As Crudelion tells me that he was only exploiting me and imprisoned me in his prison, and this weakened me enough to allow Rakto to regain control of his body and even managed to convince the warriors of the elements to forgive him, but not only that, he allied with them in the battle against the Darkus .

Flame was about to be killed by the titan Darkus, but Rakto pushed his brother away and saved his life. By sacrificing his own life, Rakto had allowed Flame to kill Crudelion and to save not only his planet, but he saved the Earth too.

We were divided, I was brought directly into hell while the positive spirit ended up in the astral world

Normal POV

The princess looked at Astral. the purifier was mortified to have lied to a friend. The truth had now been revealed and no longer wanted to hide it from the princess.

Astral: ... I'm sorry, Princess , I was going to tell you

In fact, the princess was not disappointed by Astral for having hidden the truth from her, indeed, she was very proud to know that when Astral was still alive, he had sacrificed his life to save his brother

Suddenly Rakto directly attacked the purifier with his secret blades. But thanks to his reflexes Astral managed to block the blow with the golden sword, but Rakto continued to launch other very fast blows, but the purifier was able to block every shot. The two wariors attacked so fast that it was hard to see what was happening. After the umpteenth attack, both repelled each other and they had a few seconds to breathe.

Rakto: not bad, but you'll never avoid this. Obsidian blow !

Astral tried to block the attack, but was thrown away for then crashing into the asphalt . Rakto threw a powerful punch on his stomach and threw it into the air , Rakto jumped up and reached Astral, then began to hit him violently with the blades, causing deep wounds on the body of Astral, then took the purifier by the neck and threw it again against the asphalt.

Princess: Astral !

Seeing Astral end up hard against the road, the princess screamed in fear. She couldn't do anything to help him, she had to stay and watch everything that was going on.

Rakto landed next to Astral's sword and he picked it up, then broke it with little effort.

Rakto: it was really a good weapon ... too bad it was so fragile

The warrior dogs could not stand there watching, they had to act. Unfortunately, Rakto noticed them and blocked the path generating a wall of dark fire.

Rakto: I will not let you ruin this fight

At this point the warrior dogs had only one thing to do. go to Adventure Bay and ask for help from the warriors of the elements.

Returning to the fight. While the negative spirit was turned from behind. The purifier suddenly stood up and tried to punch the purifying glove, but as if he had eyes from behind, Rakto stopped Astral's fist and began to squeeze the purifier's left hand .

Astral was feeling the pain in his hand and cracks were forming on the glove , while Rakto was enjoying not hearing his enemy's moans of pain. The latter continued to forge stronger until the glovedoes not completely destroyed into pieces. Immediately after Astral's eyes turned green and his hair darkened to black .

To end the torture of Astral, Rakto stabbed the abdomen of the purifier , but strangely he was careful not to hit the vital points. Rakto dropped Astral and then continually kicked his body.

Princess: * sobs * NO! please stop!

The princess could no longer see all that violence, she just wanted Astral to be let go.

Suddenly Rakto stopped and smiled when he saw Astral suffering from pain.

Rakto: you feel the pain. are you trying to become a human? * laught * you're ridiculous! Put it on your head, you're not a human and you'll never be

With his right hand Rakto took the hair purifier while with his left hand he put his blade to the purifier's throat.

Rakto: you have failed Astral. now you will die here

Just as he was about to move the blade, the princess shouted:

Princess: stop! ... I will give you the kingdom. Barkinburg is yours now, but please let Astral live

Rakto took Astral's neck and pushed him away to the princess, she burst into tears to see Astral full of wounds and almost close to death.

Astral: you didn't have...to give...the kingdom...for save me

Princess: *sobs* you are more important!

To be continued...
