Chapter 14 - Terror In Terraxia - Part 2
"..." - Kyo stares at the twisted reflection born from the Yata Mirror... Kusanagi
"(Why he had to appear now, why would Chizuru create this monster with my image in first place?)" - Kyo
"Hehehehehe... Good boy, I knew I could count with you, son." - Botan
"Son?" - Kyo
"Oh is true, you don't remember." - Botan smiles
"What do you mean-" - Kyo
"Back when I had the mind of Kagura under my control, in 2003 to be more precise. We thought that we could use another enforcer to help us with our plan to break the seal of Orochi." - Botan
"And we thought, why not use of Kagura's friends. The so called Champion of the past KOFs... It was so easy to just form a being with only the memories of Chizuru to come out using the forbidden ability of the mirror." - Botan
"The-The forbidden ability of the mirror?" - Kyo
"Allow me to explain, ignorant worm, the mirror of Yata is able to create entire replicates, entire copies of any person that ever lived, copies that can exist thanks to the mind of the user and its memories." - Botan
"So it was easy to create a copy of you out of Kagura's memories, and let me tell you, the way she saw you as this good for nothing brat who only thinks in fighting... It was perfect, it allowed our dear Kusanagi to be created." - Botan
"That's disgusting, you forced Chizuru to create this creepy copy of mine?!" - Kyo
"Hmph! Have you ever see yourself in a mirror, the inferior one here is you! I have no weakness unlike you, I was created by Botan and Chizuru to be the perfect warrior, to be more than a human." - Kusanagi
"This has to be a joke!" - Kyo
"It isn't! Hehehe! Kagura and me really loved to raise Kusanagi as if he was our own son, we really hoped for him to kill you back in the day." - Botan
"What are you talking about? Have I faced this copy before? When? How?" - Kyo
"You don't remember, I would love to explain but is a large story and it doesn't matter anyway. In a few moments, you will be dead." - Botan signals Kusanagi to fully kill Kyo
"As you wish, mother!" - Kusanagi goes into his battle stance showing his flames
"If I fought against this cheap copy before and won, then I'm sure I can repeat that!" - Kyo
"Oh I wouldn't be so sure about that. Unlike the last time, this time I have powered Kusanagi up." - Botan
In that moment Kusanagi launches to attack Kyo, both wielders of the flames move clashing fists as Kyo tries to punch Kusanagi with a 114 Shiki: Aragami
"Too slow!" - Kusanagi quickly dodges using a sweep kick to make Kyo fall to the ground
Seeing Kyo in the ground, Kusanagi jumps to attack him with a devastating punch, Kyo rolls dodging it but is surprised by seeing the crater left on the ground by Kusanagi
"That attack." - Kyo gets up once again looking face to face at his twisted copy
Meanwhile
Athena is seem dodging the rays that fall from the sky sended by Shermie
"Stop moving, you damn cockroach!" - Shermie
"You really are slow, if you want to win this, you will have to put more into it!" - Athena teleports next to Shermie, landing a flying kick, only for her to be surprised sended back with rays passing through her body
"ARGH!" - Athena
"Hehehe! Nice try! But my electric armor protects me from any type of hit, your attacks only tickle me, weakling!" - Shermie tries to hit Athena with a electric kick but Athena dodges it rolling back
"I'll make you eat your own words, Shermie!" - Athena
"Don't get closer to Neo Dio!" - Says Jeanne firing some arrows at the creature know as Neo Dio
"What the hell is that thing?" - Seirah
"My flames don't have much impact on him!" - K'
"Where's Kula?" - Seirah
"I thought she was with you?" - K'
"I loss her since this mess started!" - Maxima
"Forget her at the moment and focus on not dying!" - Says Krizalid as they dodge the attacks of the fast Neo Dio
"Hahahaha! Go home with your mommy!" - Allen starts shooting at Rosa and Marco forcing both to run hidding behind a rock formation
"Now what are we going to do, Marco? How much ammo this guy has?" - Rosa
"To be frank with you, I have always wonder that too." - Marco
"I got the perfect gift for you!" - Allen pulls out a grenade
"Wait, soldier! Don't waste your ammo." - King Leo appears
"I'll get them out of their hideout..." - Pulling out his sword, King Leo unleash a powerful slash that makes that part of the earth break destroying the rock where Marco and Rosa were taking cover
*Crack* - With the attack both Rosa and Marco are left out of their hideout
"This isn't good." - Rosa
"No, not at all." - Marco pulls out his heavy machine gun out of his backpack
"Distract Allen, I'll take care of King Leo." - Rosa
"Are you-" - Marco
"Go! I'm going to be alright, besides I have a pending account with him." - Says Rosa approaching the serious King Leo
"If it isn't you, girl. You still think you can take me out? Such foolishness!" - King Leo
"I don't need a boomerang to beat the hell out of you, bastard!" - Rosa
Meanwhile
Athena and Shermie interchange punches and kicks with both clashing again
"Argh!" - Shermie hits Athena with her fist covered in electricity
"Not so fast!" - Athena blocks the attack with her countering with her psycho sword
"ARGH!" - Shermie's chest is cutted by the attack being forced to roll back
"Damn girl!" - Shermie
"Give up, Shermie! The storm has ended." - Athena
"Hehehehe. But the show isn't over yet, girl!" - Shermie runs towards Athena with a killer stare
"You really can still fight?" - Athena clashes her arms with Shermie again as both stare at each other
"As long as I have the blessing of Orochi on my side, I won't lose!" - Shermie
*Smooch* - Moving backwards Shermie blows an electric kiss using her mugetsu no raiun hitting Athena
"ARRHG!" - Athena is covered by this electric field hitting her and hurting her as a smile draws on Shermie's face
"Is over, you damn idiot! Say goodbye!" - Rising her hand Shermie makes thunder appear in the sky of the planet with her now knowing where to attack
"With the thunder clap begone!" - Says Shermie using her unmei No ya hitting Athena for the shock of Terry and everyone else around
"Athena!" - Ryo
"Hehehe! The Idol is fried!" - Mr. Big
"ARGGHHHH!" - Athena's screams are heard as the lightning impacts on her with this big cloud of dust covering the idol once the electric discharge from the sky is over
"ARGGHHH!" - The last scream of Athena is heard as suddenly now the place of impact is covered by this giant cloud of dust, silence dominates the zone and only Shermie stands at the end
"You're just like Kusanagi, girl. Nothing but an arrogant fool!" - Shermie
"Now you finally shut up." - Shermie is about to leave when suddenly
*Yawn* - She heards the sound of a someone yawning coming from the crater of impact
"Huh?" - Shermie turns around after hearing that and feeling a small chi suddenly becoming bigger
"..." - As the cloud of dust disappears, Shermie is unable to believe what she is seeing
Athena is seeing stretching her arms covered by this strange purple light field having absorbed the lightning from Shermie's attack
"How? When? How is this possible?!" - Shermie grits her teeth unable to believe what she is seeing
"Ah, let me guess! Your next line is... "How? You damn psycho whore! How did you survived!" Right?" - Athena
"How? You damn psycho whore! How did you survived!" - Shermie
"Wait what?" - Shermie was confused
"By covering my body with this psychic aura, I managed to withstand the electricity from your attack, your attack impacted me, that's right but now is just part of my aura!" - Athena moves her arms like the clock hands channeling her chi on her entire body as she speaks
"How is that even possible! You should be dead right now! Damn cheater!" - Shermie
"Oh what is that face? Are you by any chance... Angry?" - Asked Athena in a sarcastic tone
"Don't try to act smart with me!" - Shermie
"Well if absorbing your attack made you this angry, here. Take it back!" - Athena points her fingers at Shermie
"AH!" - But Shermie jumps only to see that what Athena throwed was a normal psycho ball
"What?" - Shermie
"Oh that wasn't it, this is it!" - Athena now points at Shermie who is in mid air finally hitting her by throwing her attack back at her
"ARGHH!" - Shermie screams being hit by her own technique trying to withstand the lightning
"Don't think you're clever...ARGH!...Trying to use my lightning against me!" - Shermie
"Oh I was counting with that actually! I know your own lightning wouldn't be enough to do the trick!" - Athena starts throwing multiple psycho balls towards Shermie as she withstands her own lightning with her being shocked by noticing how she was surruonded by a ton of psycho balls floating around her
"Grrr!" - Shermie
"You can't-" - Shermie
"NOW!" - Athena clashes her hands together making all the spheres hit Shermie
"ARGGGHHH!" - Shermie's screams are heard being hit by the big number of spheres
"Is like I told you, the fish dies by its mouth. Even a garbage truck has more class than you, Shermie." - Athena sees a burned Shermie standing up after the attack
"AH!" - Only for her to fall finally defeated
Athena approaches Shermie's burned body
"(*Sigh* She is dead...)" - Athena feels no pulse from her as she realizes that last technique was enough to take Shermie, she closes her dead eyes leaving her to rest there
Meanwhile
"Stay still!" - Akari
"What's wrong? Are you tired, girl." - Chris
"Grr!" - Akari
Akari throws three tags involved in fire towards Chris, but Chris manages to dodge them as if nothing, he tosses two waves of flames towards Akari who doesn't react in time burning
"ARGH!" - Akari rolls recovering
"Is that the best you have? Come on! Bring on all the creatures you have, I will burn them all to ashes!" - Chris
"If that's what you want!" - Making a seal with her hands, Akari makes various creatures emerge to attack Chris from different sizes from goblin like demons to flying gargoyle ones and even strange worm demons of one eye
"AH, foolish creatures!" - Chris jumps attacking the demons with his flames eliminating them with his flames
"ARGH!" - The demons that Akari summoned fall to the ground
"Damn it!" - Akari
"So that was your last card, eh?" - Chris cracks his fingers with a sinister smile
"I might as well make your death quick and painless girl, this was entertaning while it lasted but I have a bigger prey to catch." - Chris runs towards Akari with the intention to kill her holding a flame on the tip of his finger
"..." - Akari stares at Chris with a frightened face
"Hmph!" - Only to smile being face to face with him
*Bussh* - When Chris burns Akari, this one disappears revealing it to be a raccoon
"Huh?" - Chris stops seeing this raccoon running away wondering where is Akari
"Heheheh! I see, so you decided to run away, eh sister?" - Chris
"I guess that makes you a coward, but again isn't like I expected much from a little girl like you-" - Chris is interrupted as in the moment Akari appears breaking the ground with riding on top of a big centipede-like demon, having used her technique called Sextex synthesis
"What did you said? Repeat it again on my face, boy!" - Asks Akari with serious tone of voice as shadows cover her eyes
"..." - Chris grits his teeth looking at this
"You think you scare me with that? Come on! Bring it! I'll burn you alongside that creature!" - Chris prepares to attack Akari pointing at her
"ARGG!" - Both scream as Akari attacks Chris with her demon withstanding the flames of Chris as the centipede like demon hits Chris dragging him inside a hole in the ground
"ARGHHHH!" - Chris screams as Akari manages to jump out of the demon seeing her summon dragging Chris towards this hole
"And now the final attack!" - Rising her staff Akari makes her demon explode disappearing as the burning screams of Chris are heard
Approaching to take a look at the hole, Akari sees the injured Chris now with his legs and arms broken inside this hole as he looks at Akari with anger in his eyes
"Hmmh! You don't look so good, my friend." - Comments Akari with a smug expression
"Grr! Oh don't worry about me, once I get back there, you will see how good I feel." - Chris
"I'm sorry to spoil this to you, but there won't be a next time." - Akari
"What? What are you talking about, you stupid child?!" - Chris
"Shigen! Can you come for a second!" - Screams Akari
"What is it?" - Shigen approaches taking a look at the hole where Akari is pointing
"Our friend here says he doesn't like the light, it bothers him, could you help him? Is almost his nap time?" - Akari
"Hmph! With pleasure!" - Says Shigen with a smile making Chris start to become nervous
Walking some centimeters close, Shigen pulls out a big rock carrying it towards the hole where Chris is
"What the hell are you doing?!" - Chris
"YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! Do you know who I am? I'm the prodigy son of Orochi! The will of gaia! If you think this will stop me, you're more stupid than you look!" - Chris continues to scream seeing Shigen and Akari staring at him with two smug smiles
"I'll return and tear you apart! Miserable creatures! You are nothing to the prodigy son of Orochi! I have been the chosen one by him! He will save me from here! Curseee you, damn humans!" - Chris
"Do it!" - Akari
Shigen covers the hole
Both Akari and Shigen leave the area as the fight between the two groups continue
"Geese!" - Terry manages to arrive where Geese was watching the fight, a medium sized mountain
"You took your time, Bogard!" - Geese
"Sorry, I had to dance with some of your friends on the way here." - Terry
"Power wave!" - Terry uses a power wave starting the fight
"Reppuken!" - Geese counters the attack with a reppuken
As both rivals fight each other clashing fists, suddenly
"ARH! What?" - Terry feels how a strange hand grabs his feet
Suddenly the arm throws Terry back as from the strange seal in the ground Mizuki Rashoujin appears in Kagura's body
"Looks like you need some help, Geese." - Mizuki
"Mizuki, I thought you were doing your own stuff." - Geese
"Oh but you know I would make some free time for you, after all. We have become more closer than before, isn't it? Allow me to give you a hand with this worm." - Mizuki
"Hmph! As you wish." - Both Geese and Mizuki stand against Terry
"I see you have been doing friends, Geese. Finally you meet someone as twisted as you!" - Terry
"The thief who took Chizuru's body! I'll beat you and make sure to free Chizuru from your control." - Terry
"Rakikikiki! You're quite the comedian, hungry wolf! As if a mere dog without fangs like you had any chance against us!" - Mizuki
"Mizuki!" - Looking in the distance Rera finally sees Mizuki having appeared out of her hideout
"You, Shigen!" - Rera
"Huh?" - Shigen
"Yes, I need your help! Throw me towards there!" - Says Rera pointing at the mountain where Terry is fighting against both Geese and Mizuki
Grabing Rera by her waist, Shigen throws her towards the mountain in the far distance
"AHHHH!" - Screams Rera hitting Mizuki sending her back and managing to cut her cheek
"WHAT?" - Mizuki reacts as Rera lands on the ground of the mountain
"Two vs one, Mizuki? That seems unfair! How about we even the odds?" - Rera stands next to Terry as Mizuki stands next to Geese
"So you decided to show yourself, Priestess of Kamui Kotan. You have no idea how much I have been waiting to tear you apart!" - Mizuki
"Wrong! You're not facing Nakoruru, my name is Rera!" - Says Rera and she and Terry prepare to fight against the evil couple of darkness
"Rera eh? And who are you supposed to be? An alternate personality?" - Mizuki
"That doesn't matter, I'm who will exterminate you demon! You will beg for mercy before I send you crying to a place worse than hell!" - Rera
"Compared to your other half, you sure have a big mouth. Care to entertaint us?" - Mizuki
"On guard!" - Rera
Meanwhile
"Ah! Ah!" - Iori is seem panting
"What's wrong, red? You look like you're about to pass out!" - Yashiro punches Yagami with a devastating combo
"Arhg!" - Iori is sended to the ground
"Man, you really are getting old for this." - Yashiro
"I might as well break your back and leave you like the sad and pathetic excuse for a fighter you are." - Yashiro
"Hehehe! Good luck with that, you annoying piece of shit!" - Iori uses his technique Ura 108 Shiki: Ya Sakazuki
But for his surprise Yashiro dodges it with a quick and fast move going through the flame pillar
"Is the end of the road, red! Just accept it! You're finished! Done!" - Yashiro takes advantage of the shock of Yagami to run towards him with all the intention of crush his head when suddenly
*Frrass* - In front of Iori's eyes, he sees how Yashiro's entire body is frozen
"(What? He is frozen but how?)" - Iori
In that moment a shadow lands some meters next to Iori
"Quick go for her, she is your real objective isn't it? Kagura?" - Says the shadow revealing itself to be Kula Diamond
"I'll take this brute down, don't worry about it. Leave it to me." - Kula
"..." - Iori
"Go!" - Kula
"Hmph! Before I leave, why are you helping me? I didn't need your help in first place, child!" - Iori
"I really should had let him to crush that ignorant head of yours. All of us want the same thing, you are a cold bastard and I really hate your flames but if we want to win this, we need to act as a team." - Kula
"Go! Go for Kagura, I'll take care of him." - Kula
"..." - Iori leaves to pursuit Kagura, as much as he hated to admit it, Kula was right his priority was to finish off with her
In that moment Yashiro starts breaking the ice slowly forcing Kula to be on her guard
"Ah!" - Jeanne is seem panting as she, K', Maxima, Krizalid and Seirah try to stop Neo Dio
"Take this! Justice arrow!" - Jeanne shots an arrow from her bow but Neo Dio dodges it turning into liquid metal moving hidding quickly next to some rocks
"Where is that bastard?" - Seirah
"I don't know, he could be anywhere!" - K'
"Keep your eyes on the ground, he must be hidding behind some rock!" - Jeanne
"Huh?" - Maxima's scaner suddenly starts acting nuts
"I detect something!" - Maxima turns only to be confused as the lectures of his scaner lead to Jeanne herself
"Huh? This has to be an error!" - Maxima
"What is wrong?" - Jeanne
"It says Neo Dio is with you." - Maxima was confused
"What? How can that be?!. If he was here I would feel that disgusting creature-" - But Jeanne is surprised seeing an arm come out of her armor
"WHAT?" - The arm pointing a sharp blade does a quick cut on Jeanne decapitating her right there in front of the K' team
"Impossible!" - K'
"It can't be!" - Krizalid
"Jeanne! No!" - Seirah
"Damn it! How he did that! He fused with Jeanne's armor!" - Maxima sees how coming out of Jeanne's armor the real Neo Dio appears in front of them
