Shadow Slave FanFic [Missing Piece]

Chapter 20: The Depths of Madness



Sunny grinned proudly under his Helmet and Mask as he looked down on the dead remains of the Corrupted Titan. Even the Shadow Spawn showed some teeth although that could be more interpreted as a threat than a smile but in that Moment he couldn't care less.

Now only 2 of the 4 Abominations remained and he already knew how to take them down. Matter of fact one of them was already faltering and ripping at its Chest to tear out the parasite that has been feeding on him for the entire time.

Fiend has not been Idle as he broke through the body of the Titan with immense speed searching for its Cores and heart. Already he has gathered all 7 Cores of the thing and is now on his way to destroy its heart.

The reason Why Sunny ordered him to gather the Cores first is simple. Breaking down the body to get the Shards would be a chore after it cooled down and the Magma froze.

Who knew just how hard to break it's body would be after it's death. And cool down it would quickly. Not just because it died and the fuel that kept its body at the temperature It was would run out, but because Sunny was planning to deal with the Great Terror that was making its way towards the Alluring Stench of Human souls alongside it in a special kind of way.

"Let's see who of you two is the Stronger Calamity."

Sunny said Chuckling which left Effie and Jet confused at first. Sunny began to laugh as he sensed Serpent and Mimic getting Closer. Way above the Great Terror the 2 made a great Duo. Serpent has taken on the Form of a Eagle, it's terribly Sharp and long Claws carrying a large barrel that was no other than Mimic.

Sunny could order it to take on all kinds of forms after all and so he did.

Full to the brim with water from the nearby Ocean Mimic had gathered an amount in itself that could Very well fill up the Great Canyon. Although it didn't look like it from the outside, Mimic could hold much more as a Dimensional Storage that it is.

Sunny ordered Serpent to Tip Mimic over and release the Torrents Of water to drown the Terror in it. Billions of Liters came down on the Creature in an Instant, mixing with the sand and debris that it has accumulated over time.

The thing couldn't help but absorb the water of course creating a Giant pile of Mud.

"Great…so now we have a Giant Mud monster to Fight instead of just a Sandman. Why did you do that exactly?"

Jet was rightfully concerned of course. In hindsight Sunny had actually worsened their situation by a lot. But his plan was not over just yet.

Dismissing Mimic and ordering it to return to the spot where his Café stood because it's job was done here he sat down on one of the Roots. The Shadow Colossus had been dismissed too and its corresponding Shadow was now dwelling by his side. He himself stayed in the form of the 6 Armed Shadow spawn but not without making it way smaller.

Somehow he felt more comfortable in that form when on a Battlefield. It's nature was about killing just like his was after all and although nothing will ever feel the same as his Original body the Shadow Spawn came close enough for him to feel good while assuming it's form in certain situations only of course.

"Just wait, you will see."

Was the answer he gave them from his with Fangs littered Mouth. The original Shadow Spawn could not speak but Sunny was its heir and creator now so his will to give it the ability to do so was all that it needed.

He looked to the right and saw Kai And his other Incantation getting closer. He wanted to wait until they arrived before diving into the Great finally.

'This will be an event that Noone wants to miss after all.'

He smiled while a shallow laugh escaped his mouth. Effie and Jet had long accepted that he's a crazy Bastard but laughing at the sight of a Corrupted Titan and a Great Terror was too much even for their sense of Humor.

"What now? Are we just gonna sit here and wait for these 2 to reach the City and Kill everyone there or are we gonna do something?"

Kai asked, rattled by the sight in front of him. Here he was the Man that changed the outcome of this fight singlehandedly and saved his friends along With Countless lives of Civilians and Masters seemingly has given up on continuing to do so and just kicking the Sand beneath his Feat.

"I was just waiting for 2 things you know."

"And what are those things, sunny?"

The smile that appeared on both his Human Incantation and the one of the Shadow Spawn did not look that different now. Both showing the Depths of Madness he has accumulated over the Years perfectly and putting everyone else on edge.

"One of them was you. I don't wanna Start the Grand Finally without you here being able to enjoy it as much as I do after all. That wouldn't be fair To a supposedly dear friend of Mine now would it?"

Kai nodded but couldn't help feeling strange at the sight of his old Friend talking about this situation so Amazed like they were not About to dive into battle with a Titan and a Terror.

"What is the Second thing then?"

Effie's question pulled them out of their emotional state and made sunny Nodding in satisfaction.

"I'm glad you asked."

He pointed at the pile of Mud and said amused.

"I'm waiting for this Guy to stand back up."

His answer was Both crazy and senseless in many more ways than they are ready to think about. Instead Of wondering why Sunny would do such a thing and not strike while the enemy is immobilized and still coming to terms with its new body Jet asked the most obvious question there is at the moment.

"Why?"

Sunny's laughter spread through the wasteland. It was a Mad laughter. An eerie Laughter. Not one they would have liked to hear but Sunny couldn't care less. As The Great Terror finally seemed to have adapted to its newfound body and rose towards the Sky again he could see the heat from the Titan starting to vaporize some of the Water.

Even though they were Hundreds of Meters away from one another the Heat of this Corrupted Titan was terrible enough to even have an effect at such range. Which meant that if nothing Changed In the next couple of Minutes the Walls of the City would start to melt under it even though the Titan was still far away.

"Wonderful question again. Ahhh…I love to guide a Conversation in a way that brings me the most joy. But do you know what brings me even more of said joy?"

Everyone Pondered on the Question but none came to a Suitable answer. Effie though had an Idea that she knew was true.

"A Blowjob from Nephis?"

They all froze. Even Sunny had trouble keeping the red from creeping up his cheeks and, to Effie's delight, failed to do so in the end.

He coughed awkwardly and gave her a reluctant nod.

"Yes That's true, but not what I was getting at."

Jet and Kai's Jaws dropped after hearing his response. Effie didn't have time to tell them about What happened at Sunny's house and in what Situation she found Sunny and Nephis in so they were Shocked beyond belief.

"She did wha…"

Kai And Jet wanted to ask but got interrupted by Sunny who just shook his head and looked away kinda embarrassed.

"What I was getting at was something else. You see, I'm a very spiteful person and a good Chunk of my pain has been inflicted by Nightmare Creatures. At first it was just the Will to survive that drove me to kill them but nowadays I truly hate them. So I decided to give this fellow over there some hope. The hope that he will now have it easier to destroy the City infront of him and devour all those pitiful souls like he desperately Wants to."

His speech didn't end there but took a dark turn once again as he finally revealed the reason for his doings.

"Because now I can crush him even better. After feeding Its mind with so much hope and anticipation I can finally bring an end to its disgusting existence."

Before any of them could ask anymore questions Sunny Ordered Serpent to Transform into an Abomination that has been plaguing his Mind for Years on end.

Seconds after the Command had been transmitted the clouds above the Great Terror began to Freeze entirely and Snow fell from the Sky.

Mixed with the ash it looked like Black mist was descending upon the Terror threatening to swallow it whole but Sunny had no way of Creating Abomination Devouring black mist.

'That could become a passion project Though.'

He thought at the Magnificent Sight. Instead of that something else happened though. None except for him and Jet truly remember the might Of the Winterbesast. But only he has ever seen its true form. So this was new even for Jet as they all watched the impossible formation of Ice and Flowers Coming down right on top of the Great Terror while freezing it completely to its core.

Sunny had ordered Serpent to hold back tremendously with the Range Of its effect since otherwise they would not have been safe from the Soul Freezing Cold that the Winterbeast was able to create.

Somehow it broke the laws of nature and could produce A cold even more Harrowing than what Was physically possible. Absolute 0 was a law Humans thought was unbreakable for Centuries, nothing could get colder than -273,15 C°. But the Winterbeast was a Corrupted Titan that could break the Laws of Physics as it ruled over Everyone and Everything with its chilling Aura.

Today that mighty will to break the Laws of Physics has become Sunny's tool to play with as he watched the Great Terror coming to a Halt and completely freeze.

It didn't die though which left him disappointed and Happy at the same time.

'At Least that means that it will suffer until I drive a Spear through its Heart.'

Everyone Was frozen in place. Not because the Chilling Aura Of the Winterbesast has reached them after all but because they couldn't believe their eyes. Even Kai whose abilities allowed him to see through illusions questioned if what his eyes were staring at right now was real or just a fake imagery Conjured by some truly Powerful Mindhex.

'Maybe the Daemon Of Imagination has come to pay us a visit after all.'

He thought but In the end he knew that it was all real and it was about to become even more unbelievable because Serpent, still in the form of the Winterbeast, made his way towards The Corrupted Titan.

Sunny wanted to see which of the 2 forces was Stronger and he would not be satisfied until he had his answer.

The 2 Domains clashed when they collided. One would destroy the other so much he was sure and he was eager to find out.

"Will it be the Incandescent heat that could Very well Ignite the Atmosphere Or will it be the Chilling Aura of the Winterbeast which breaks the Laws of Physics?"

He mumbled to himself with excitement. The others heard his question but couldn't possibly know the Answer so they just watched with anticipation and Awe.

Fiend who was still inside the Corrupted Titan and has long located its Heart was waiting patiently for his Master's Command to devour it. For him it was like taking a Hot Bath so he didn't mind. Only the Company was lacking so he wished big Sister was here to cheer him on.

Although he knew that Saint would just give him an approving nod and hit the rim of her Shield to show her approval, that would be enough for him. Although he could get that later anyways since she is with Sunny hiding in his Shadow and has witnessed the demonstration of Strength her Master possesses.

And Fiend's of course.

As the 2 Domains continued to Clash it became pretty apparent which one was the more dire one. Serpent had trouble keeping up the Form of the Winterbeast and was getting more and more damage as time went on.

So sunny, who was satisfied with the result of his Experiment ordered Serpent to retreat and let go of the Winterbeast form. Soon a Giant Onyx Snake made its way towards the Group of Saints and coiled back around its Master's body to feed on his essence to heal the Shallow burns it received.

"You did good, Serpent, rest now."

He smiled at his Shadow before turning his Gaze towards the Corrupted Titan.

"You on the other hand can go and rot in the Shadow Realm now."
