AWAKENING - the adventure

Chapter 17: Meet Again (Part 5)



Lenny: "JAACCK!"

Lenny cries and hugs Jack,

Jack: "What happened"

Lenny: "I-Ichiro came and saved us, but he is fighting against…you"

Lenny responds sobbingly, leaving Jack confused,

Jack: "Ichrio? Me?"

Jack looks at Ichiro, smiling in fright after sensing the same exact aura he had sensed back then in the city,

Jack: "I see, that's the Ichiro guy and the other guy is?"

Lenny: "Your shadow the woman took from you"

Jack: "And it is fighting us alright "

Jack says more confused then before,

Lenny: "You guessed it"

Jack: "Alright"

Jack gets on his feet with one jump, growing wings on his back before quickly flying at the shadow-minion,

The shadow-minion fights against Ichiro, before he could throw a punch at him he

gets hit by Jack's foot,

Ichiro: "Yo, nice one, you think you can handle him?"

Jack: "Yeah I got him"

Ichiro nods, rushing at Sill and Sev,

Henry: "Big sis...you got a plan?"

Emilia frightens a little,

Henry: "Big sis?"

Emilia: "Just hit him with all you got Henry"

Henry uses shooting-star to get near him, hitting the skeleton with his fist wrapped in the blue energy,

The skeleton falls back, landing on a building behind the wall,

Henry drops to the ground, smiling at the skeleton,

Henry: "You like that? I call it energy-fist"

Emilia laughs, thinking the name sounds stupid,

She then grabs a boat with a gigantic fog-hand, throwing it at the skeleton who just got

up from the building, hitting him and letting him land on the building again,

The skeleton gets up, grabbing his blade and making a strong swing into their direction, whirling up a lot of air and dust,

Henry ducks while Emilia escapes into the air,

Emilia: "Don't get to near his blade Henry"

Henry: "Got it"

Henry gets up on his feet, running inside the destroyed building while Emilia distracts him.

Now standing directly under the skeleton, Henry uses shooting-star to fly up to him, hitting him with a energy-fist upper-cut.

The skeleton loses balance, not being able to defend against Emilia who takes another boat and hits him to his side, making him fall into the water next to him, dissolving into black ash.

Jack blocks the punch of the shadow-minion, before throwing another punch, but he also gets his punch blocked,

He then flies up a bid, shooting out a beam of purple lightning from his dragon-mouth, only to get it countered with a purple lighting beam from the shadow-minion dragon-moutg, letting both clash in the middle, illuminating the whole area with bright light and purple lightning,

Ichiro wraps his broom in aura, ready to cut them both with one slash,

Sill and Sev are watching in fear, how Ichiro rushes at them at lightning fast speed, with a serious expression is ready to kill them with one move, showing no remorse.

In this moment, the world around Sev and Sill moved in slow-motion, but both are unable to move, only leaving them to accept defeat and ultimately death.

Ichiro notices their fear, letting out a small smile, swinging his broom above them and cutting the building behind them, ultimately scaring them into fainting.

The shadow-minion jumps at Jack while Jack also jumps at him, but before hitting each other in the middle, the shadow-minion falls onto the ground, turning back into Jacks shadow, letting Jack fall on the ground.

Jack: "Is it over?"

He calls out,

Ichiro: "Yup, got them alive"

Sev wakes up, seeing the ocean before him,

Sev: "Am…am I dead?"

Ichiro: "Nope you are at the harbor, but you better be answering our questions first"

Ichiro stands before him,

Sev looks behind him, seeing him bound to Sill with fog,

Sev: "Is that fog? Wait this means…"

Emilia: "Yup, your friend is gone, so you better answer our questions"

Sev: "Are you serious? We are not over ye-…"

Sill: "We give up"

Sill says, Interrupting Sev,

Sev: "What are you doing Sill?"

Sill: "G-Guaranteeing our survival, l-leader is probably dead"

Jack: "You better listen to your girlfriend"

Sill blushes,

Sill: "G-G-G-GIRLFRIEND"

She shouts out loud, turning completely red,

Sev: "Alright, what do you want to hear"

Emilia: "First, what are you"

Sill: "We are a mercenary vampire group"

Henry: "VAMPIRE?"

Sev: "Surprised idiot?"

Lenny: "How come you are able to survive in the sun?"

Sev: "Because of the moonstones? Did you never hear of them, glasses?"

Lenny: "What are those?"

Sill: "We got them on as a amulet around our neck, they are found in the land of the moon and they basically protect us from the sun, I don't know how they actually work"

Emilia: "Why did you come here"

Sill: "We had the mission to kill two blonde brothers, another boy and the fog princess companying them"

Sev: "Yeah but that motherfucker didn't tell us that it's about that fucking stone"

Lenny: "You mean this stone?"

Lenny holds the blue amethyst in front of them, Sev nods,

Lenny: "Tell me what that is"

Sill: "It's a important artifact called the tear of the forgotten that can heal every disease, it's found in the tomb of the count, near the border of Transilvannia, it is said to appear every-time a count dies, it was prophesied to appear this year after the latest count, Dreyghoul the third, died in combat to the newest count, Nostradamus Dracula, who desperately wanted it"

Sev: "Sill, if you continue to talk, you bring us both in danger"

Sill: "The b-baron can't do a-anything now; h-he won't just appear and prevent u-us from

talking"

Sill: "The baron is the one who gave us the mission, he was supposed to watch over the cave or it's other name, the tomb of the forgotten, basically messing up pretty bad by not noticing that the stone had been stolen, so he does everything in his might to get this stone back"

Lenny: "So that is where that fraud-dealer got it from"

Jack: "And hired that mud guy"

Emilia: "And who is that baron?"

Sev: "Sill stop"

Sill: "The baron is-…"

Jack: "What? Why did you stop? Tell us who he is?"

Sill coughs, spitting blood out of her mouth, before having blood flow out of her ears, nose and eyes,

Henry: "What is happening to her?"

Sev: "Please don't kill me, I never said anything, let me life, please, please, please"

Sev shouts and cries, looking to a building in the distance, before also coughing out blood,

Sill and Sev both cough out more blood, levitating into the air, screaming in pain before being squished into meat and blood, dropping to the ground.

Everyone around is left in a state of trauma, before Jack and Ichiro snaps back into reality,

They quickly turn to the building where Sev had looked towards in his last moments, spotting a dark silhouette, with really long hair and red eyes, starring at them from the distance while the sun goes down behind him, suddenly disappearing.
