Life Novel, Part 6

I was making sure that I wasn't be fooled with, so I went to her, she is reading heavily and it's about different spirits, apparently she is trying to get to bottom on what could her true form be that is hidden beneath all the forms she has received over the years. "Akari, may I have a word with you?" I asked nicely. She bookmarks where she left off in that book, "What is it, Neo?" "I just had a chat with Ulquiorra," I started, "Is what he said is true?"

"About?" She motioned me to push forward, I started to stutter but managed to say, "Did you have feelings for me right from the get go?" "Oh, you were informed about me denying that arranged marriage with Shuhei, yeah, I shut that one down, harshly because they keep forgetting that I make the choices here," I felt that immense anger within her. I simply asked, "What chapter in that book were you reading?"

"An Oni, why?" she asked. I looked into that book, I saw that Oni's are immensely strong, which is what she has already. She had that Super Strength from when she was born, "I think on what Aizen had sealed away, he knew from the start." "What did he seal away?" she asked. I showed her that she has the Super Strength of the Oni spirit, I tell her, "My only guess was that since you were so small back then, he only sealed it away before it killed you entirely, now the seal is beginning to loosen, you might have to go to him and forcibly tell him to break the seal. This is your only chance to finally who is the true ruler in this world."

Apparently that got her to listen for once, I decided to stay put until the 12 show up, I have a feeling that something is not right with them. I told Ulquiorra, "I need to an experiment with you, since I have a portion of her power and so do you, I need to test something if my theory is correct." I called in Layla Moonlight, she comes all prissy, "What is it, ice cream girl?"

"Okay that is really starting to bother me a lot," I muttered, I casted Silence on her. She can not speak because I was left in charge. Of course, doing what I did to her, alerted the other 11, before they got here in time, I pulled out 50% of her Light powers, released the spell, she gasped for air as if the power was suffocating her. Ulquiorra asked, "Are you alright, Layla?"

"Layla, who is that?" asked former Layla, "My name is Carolina Huntington, what just happened?" "You were suffocated by your own light powers," I said to her, "Are you going to be alright?" "Yeah, I am fine for now," she says, not even trying to hide her feelings. I was immediately asked, "What did you do to her?" I turned to seeing who was suppose to be her favorite aunt, Levy, the ones who seem to be in control are Onyx, William, and Evangeline. Wait, are they her true, actual parents?

Then she comes back, "What happened to Layla?" "You mean, Carolina?" I corrected. She looks at me, confused, I motioned her over, she is waiting for an explanation. I whispered on what my theory was and I was right, the powers of most of the 12 are being suffocated by their own power.

She said, "I will handle this, once I come back to do something that I do not need to inform you all, all you need to know is that I am leaving both Neo and Ulquiorra in charge, if you have anything questions or favors to ask, you need to ask them, I am currently unavailable until further notice."

With that, I had a smirk on my face knowing that I knew that this was going to be the down fall, everything must have to turn out the way it should be. I called the original 13 that started this all, Carolina was sitting down, realizing that her powers were erasing her own identity. Onyx asked, "Is she going to be alright?"

"Of course she is," I said to Akari's brother, "She almost got choked to death by her own power." "Oof, that's rough and hard to hear," said Onyx. Shadow Phoenix angrily asked, "What the hell did you do with Layla?" "That is none of your business," said an elegant voice behind them. Hurricane asked, "What are you doing here, Volcano?" "I was about to ask you all that," she said.

Jewel told her, "That is none your concern." "Actually, it is her concern," said Akari, walking in with her own royal dress, "You have no say on what goes on here, I make the rules, not you, Trinity." That stung them all, Jackson asked, "What are you going to do about it then? It's not like you can erase us from existence." "No, you are correct, but I can do this," said Akari, starting to take both Jewel's and Jackson's power by 50%.

Phoenix asked, "Why are you doing this?" "Watch," I ordered her. She scoffed, "Akari, do something about her overpowering you." "You don't speak to my wives' wife about that," said Ulquiorra, comes in with a throne chair just made for me, "She is one of us, you have no authority anymore." "As a matter of fact," I said, with suspense, walking between her and Volcano, "I feel like transferring powers."

"What are you suggesting, Neo?" asked Volcano. I told her, "You seem to be more in control of your powers than Shadow Phoenix here." "No need to say anymore, Neo," said Akari, "Volcano, Shadow Phoenix, front and center." They both did, Akari took 50% of Shadow Phoenix's power and transferred them into Volcano, I see Laguna walking in, to see what is going, and I secretly took 50% of Levy's power and transferred them to Laguna.
