BIZARRO DREAMS ALERT!
(Bizarro Dreams episode 13)
[Date of event: July 26, Thursday - week 4]
[Shiryu and Black Dragon face off]
Black Dragon – Get ready to die, Dragon!
[they exchange blows until Black Dragon knocks him. Shiryu gets up and notices Black Dragon gone]
Shiryu – He disappeared into the darkness. I'd better do the same.
[however, Shiryu gets exposed]
Shiryu – How is able to see me?
Black Dragon's voice – You moved right.
Shiryu – Seriously, where are you, Black Dragon?
Black Dragon's voice – Left, right! Left, right!
[Shiryu gets hits left and right in the darkness]
Shiryu (thinking) Wait a sec. The voice and hits come from slightly different directions. I see. This must be the mysterious shadow Shun warned me about.
[Black Dragon appears in the open]
Black Dragon – You're no worthy rival.
Shiryu – Don't be so sure, Black Dragon. I'm going to hit… your ally!
Black Dragon – What?!
[Shiryu's blow hits the Black Dragon's blind twin, killing him on spot]
Black Dragon – Brother!
Shiryu – So he was telling you where to strike.
Black Dragon – Okay, turns out you're worthy after all.
Shiryu – You're sure don't seem affected.
Black Dragon – Why would I? I'm not the sentimental type.
Shiryu – What? You would sell out even your brother?
Black Dragon – It's every man for himself. We Black Saints are the same.
Shiryu – Not cool! Now we'll settle for real.
[the two exchange blows one after another, but Black Dragon has the upper hand and knocks Shiryu]
Shiryu – I'm bleeding and my armor's heavy…
Black Dragon – What's with the half-assed fighting and the bleeding? I see… you must've had your armor repaired. You used a lot blood, was that it? Then how come you arrive at such a sorry state?
Shiryu – For my friends.
Black Dragon – This again?
Shiryu – Yes! I'll die for my friends.
Black Dragon – Fine! You're all going to die anyway. Might as well start with you. Then I'll head over there and undo the chain making Andromeda and Pegasus fall to their deaths.
Shiryu (thinking) The only thing that will defeat him is the Rising Dragon, but in my condition…
[flashback] Master – Shiryu! When you use the Rising Dragon, your stamina must be at its peak. If you use it while weak, your head will explode!
Shiryu – Is that a joke?
Master- Half. You'll become a vegetable of blood. [end flashback]
Shiryu – Forgive me, Master.
[Shiryu rips all but briefs and shin guards]
Black Dragon – What the hell are you doing?!
Shiryu – I expected another malfunction… Anyway, you're right, Black Dragon. Every man is out for himself. But friendship is the only thing I believe given that we orphans never had parents. Friendship is where we find comfort and support. I'll gladly die for what I believe in! Lushan Rising Dragon Lord!
[insert "Can't Say Goodbye My Friend" montage song]
Shiryu – Ha! I won but at the cost of anemia. (collapses)
Black Dragon – Aha! (breaks free from the debris)
Shiryu – No! I'm out of options. He's going to kill me.
[however, Black Dragon pokes Shiryu's chest]
Shiryu – The bleeding's gone. Why did you save my life?
Black Dragon – Because I want to experience this so-called friendship. But seems it's too late for me.
[Black Dragon collapses, covered in blood]
Shiryu – Hang in there, Black Dragon! Black Dragon!
[Black Dragon dies in Shiryu's arms]
Shiryu (thinking) This man lost his life, but he gained a friend.
[Shiryu rushes to Shun's aid]
Shiryu – Shun, I'll help you climb!
[With Shiryu's help, Shun climbs while holding an unconscious Seiya]
Shun – He's still alive but he's darker than… coffee.
Shiryu –I'm gonna have to penetrate… with my fingers!
[Shiryu pokes Seiya's chest and black blood spurts]
Shun (grabbing Shiryu's arm) Not without consent!
Shiryu – Shun! I'm poking his star points.
Shun – Okay, that makes sense.
Shiryu – He has thirteen of them so…
[Shiryu pokes the rest of Seiya's body and more black blood gushes]
Shun – Will he be okay?
Shiryu – He should be.
[Shiryu puts his armor on and carries the pieces with Shun to the summit]
Shun – Are you sure he's going to be okay with all these holes? Won't he bleed to death?
Shiryu – Listen! If I can bleed out and magically live, then he can too.
[Shiryu and Shun arrive at the Mount Fuji summit]
Shiryu – We're at the summit. We have six pieces. Cygnus should have two and with the helmet Ikki has makes it nine pieces. That's good. Once we get the pieces, this whole thing will be over.
[Shun's chains rattle]
Shun – My brother is nearby…
Ikki – Aha!
Shun – Brother!
Shiryu – Shun!
Shun – I'm sorry, Shiryu.
[Shun's chains knock Shiryu]
Shiryu – Why, Shun?
Shun – Let me settle this with my brother.
Ikki – What's the meaning of this?
Shun – Brother, I'll give you my life so you can be magically nice.
Ikki – How is that going to work?
Shun – I dunno. Symbolism, constellation, metaphor…
Ikki – Cut the random manga crap! I'm gonna kill you first!
[Seiya rushes in]
Shun – Wow, Seiya! You're alive and no injuries. How come?
Seiya – My MC powers are so strong that even my wounds heal!
Shiryu – He's not the only one who's magically alive.
Hyoga's voice – Don't forget about me! I'm magically alive too!
Ikki – I penetrated your heart! You should be dead!
Hyoga – Jesus had saved me (leaps)
[the four Bronze Saints surround Ikki]
Seiya – Take a good look, Ikki! It's four against one!
Hyoga – Not even you can stand a chance.
Shiryu – Looks like the gang's all here.
Shun – Brother!
[To avoid ending this sequence awkwardly, this narrator summarizes the events afterward. After his Specter Punch turns against him, Ikki finds himself in a difficult position. However, he manages to recover and knock down all four Bronze Saints like bowling pins. Seiya is the only one left standing, and just as Ikki is about to finish him off, the Gold Cloth is assembled to protect Seiya. This gives Seiya the motivation to shatter Ikki's cloth. Although Ikki's Phoenix armor revives, he prepares to strike again. At this moment, pieces of his friends' armor fly onto him, from Shiryu's shield to Shun's chain, along with Hyoga's Diamond Dust, in a combination attack. Ikki gets knocked, bleeds out and finally admits defeat.]
Ikki – Seiya, I can't seem to beat you. You've won.
Seiya – Really?
Ikki – Yes.
[Shiryu's shield and Shun's chain return]
Ikki – You have strong allies and I don't. (collapses)
Seiya (catches him) Ikki!
Ikki – I went through hell.
Shun – Big Brother!
Seiya - Ikki, what happened on Death Queen Island?
