The Lost Memories

Battle on the sky! Eiji vs Kuro!

*Eiji*

I quickly draw out my dual blades based on my imagination. I hit Kuro hardly using the blades hardly but he is able to block the attack using the lance. Urgh! His lance is so annoying! I lift up my left hand that holding one of the dual blades, and quickly slash to his right side but my attack is useless, he draws back himself by flying backwards.As I thought, fighting on the air is hard. Suddenly, he flies upwards close enough to the sun. What is he planning to do?

"Minori, can I make another weapon?" I ask. "Yes, you can." she answers short. This is good. I close my eyes and focus on making my second weapon. Seeing me not in my guard, Kuro makes a fast dive towards me, pointing his lance to my head. Even though I close my eyes, but I can sense and hear the sound that he makes while flying. In the nick of time, I sidestep his attack and hit his back with a punch. I throw my second weapon, a long and strectchable chains, to bind him completely. Regrets on making the attack, he struggles to free himself from the shining chains that are wrapping his body, restraining his movements. Wasting no time, I pull him towards myself and headbutt him hardly. He groans in pain as our foreheads touch with each other before throwing him to the ground.

I pull him back to me and give him a kick on the abdomen, sending him away from me. I pull him again but this time is different. I wrap myself around him and quickly dive downwards, heading to the ground. When the distance between the ground and us is about three centimeters, I quickly let him go, planting his head into the ground. I let go of the chains slowly. Is it over yet? I keep my guard up as I wait for Kuro's action. Suddenly, his wings start to move violently. The wings try to break off the chains. I pull the chains together, wrapping his body harder. Urgh! He's not giving up at all. The wings suddenly overpower my strength, shattering the chains to pieces.

He lifts up his head, looking at me with cold eyes. He vanishes again from my sight. Not again! I hate when he does this kind of thing... "Behind you, Eiji!" Minori warns me. I quickly turn around and Kuro is ready for his next attack, a punch on my face. Startle with his surprise attack, I quickly block my face with my hands crossing each other. He lets out a powerful punch and it really hurts even though I already blocked it. Kuro pulls back his hand and use both of his hands to hold my head before hitting my blocked face with a sharp thrust from his knee.

Agh! That's hurts... When he wants to pull back his knee, I hold it tightly, not wanting to let it go. He struggles to free his leg from me. I hold the back of his leg and pull it hardly enough to make him fall on his back. I jump on him and quickly punch his face. But, he notices my attack and rolls himself to the other side. My punch hits the ground. Gahhh! It hurts, it hurts! He quickly gets back on his feet and throws me on the sky. I use my wings to keep my balance. Seeing me unprepare, he flies towards me and delivers some quick punches on my abdomen. "How's that feel, Eiji?" he asks, stabilising himself on the sky, a little further from me. I rub my abdomen as I look at him. "It feels like I just ate bad food" I replies to his question. I spit out some blood from my mouth.

"You can never beat me in the sky, Eiji. Unlike you, I was born with this wings! That makes me a pro in sky fighting!" he says proudly. That explains how he can vanishes suddenly and flies real fast. No time to lose hope now! Focus Eiji! There must be a way to beat him. Remember all his patterns and try searching for his weak spot. I close my eyes and relax myself. He grins. "Hey, wanna know something?" he asks. I open my eyes and look at him. "The country that is called Aisitti or something similar. It was been attacked by the dark force, right?" he continues. I listen to what he says, not replying anything, not even a word. "I'm the one who attacked it and the prince of that country too! The face he made before I deliver the final blow is so pathetic. It makes me want to laugh when I remember it." he mocks. "You killed our prince?!" Lancelot yells from a distance. "Yes, I did." he replies in cold tune.

My blood is rushing to my brain, heating my head once again. I quickly fly towards Kuro and hit him with my full strength. "That's right... Get even angrier... I killed him..." Kuro mocks as he blocks with his newly made dark lance in a blink of an eye. I increase the power of my gripping and push my dual blades closer to him, inch by inch. "That's it, Eiji. Show me your true strength!" he quickly pushes me away with his raw strength. I pant heavily, taking quick breath in order to cool down my head. "Kill! Kill! Kill!" a voice tells me inside my brain. "Shut up!" I yell and make another attempt to hit Kuro. He throws away his lance and holds down both of my blades. I grit my teeth and headbutt him. But, he already foresees this and tilts his head to the left side, dodging my headbutt. He pulls and throws away my blade before hitting me on my abdomen with his left knee three times in a row.

Guhhh! That really hurts a lot. But that doesn't end there. He carves a wicked smile on his face and touch both of my wings on my back. Feeling so much pain, I can't really move, not even for an inch. He pulls my wings hardly enough that a 'snap!' sound can be heard. I scream loudly as Kuro still enjoying the torture he is giving to me. That's it! I focus on my remaining strength into my wings. Suddenly, the wings start to glow and burn in bright red colour. Kuro pulls away his hands from my wings but somehow he is able to pull off my left wing, making me fall on the ground hardly as a result of not being able to stabilise myself in the air. I put up my right hand in the air as the pain from before rushes towards my brain.

Urgh! It hurts... "Kill him! Let him suffer!" the same voice tells me again. I hold my head tightly and roll on the ground. The voice is making me having headache again. "Stop! Please!" I yell, hoping the voice will be gone. "Eiji! Up!" Minori warns. I lift up my head, looking up to the sky. I see Kuro is gathering energy for his massive size dark sphere above his head. If that hits me, I don't know what will happen. I guess my body will be tear apart. I try to stand on my feet again after receiving so much damage. "This is the end!" Kuro yells as he throws the dark sphere. I manage to stand up but I have no time to get away before the sphere will hit me. What should I do?
