The bugs filled the hole in Notaro’s back.

Scion: So pact child. Are you ready to die?

Notaro:…..

Scion: Very well. He throws a kunai into the air.

Scion: *handsign* Kunai-kai Storm!!

There was a dark blue ki blob as kunai started falling towards Notaro.

Scion: Target – All vital organs, Speed – 120 mph, Damage – cataclysmic!!

A continual rain of kunai slammed into Notaro and created a wave of dust.

Scion: DIE! DIE!! DIE!!!! After about 2 minutes, the barrage stopped.

Scion: Status – Ready for burial. *laugh*Somehow, a wave of ki diminished the dust.

Scion: What? He saw that Notaro was covered in Kunai and so was his barrier of bugs.

Scion: Heh. Guess you were just a little too slow.

Suddenly, Notaro burst into a wave of tiny black bugs, rushing for Scion.

Scion: How?! He quickly jumped out of the way at the last second.

Scion: *2 himself* That was close. But now he’s got me in mid-air. I’ve got to move. He then began watching as Notaro slowly reformed himself out of the tiny bugs. Suddenly, a gigantic flying grasshopper rammed Scion into a tree and flew away.

Scion: Damn. Why didn’t I see that? He gets up slowly and calculates that he’s about 52 ft. from Notaro.

Crystas: *2 herself*Hmmm. Not bad, pact child. He’s already in sync with his surroundings.

Scion: Alright, it’s time to stop toying with you pact child. *handsign* Hell’s Rain!!

Kunai began raining down from the blob except they were engulfed in fire.

Scion: Heh. Notaro began dodging them with ease until Scion threw a ball of fire in front of him that made him stop in his tracks, just long enough for the rain of kunai to fall down on him. The collision created a large explosion that grew as the kunai kept raining down.

Scion: Now. There’s no way he could survive that. After a while, the dust cleared revealing a gigantic black and gray spiked beetle that protected Notaro from all the kunai. The beetle rose up slowly and looked at Scion.

Scion: Uh….uh….

Notaro:……  The beetle suddenly flew up into the sky.

Scion: What’s it up to? *looks at Notaro* I wasn’t expecting that. Nice move. You’re stronger than I thought. Notaro raises his arms halfway. Scion hears a small buzzing noise and sees something crawling out of Notaro’s sleeve. Then a flod of locusts spontaneously rush from under Notaro’s coat.

Scion: *2 himself* What?! How are all of those coming from under his coat?!  The locusts begin encircling the area.

Scion: *2 himself* *looking around frantically* There must be thousands of them!! He feels the ground rumbling under him and give way as small Vulture Maggots take over.

Scion: *2 himself* Ugh. If I jump into the air, I’ll get swarmed by locusts or…..that thing. He was referring to a large shadow of something in the midst of the swarm.

Scion: *2 himself* But if I stand here….*looks down* I’ll be swallowed up by Vulture Maggots. *looks at Notaro* This kid….he’s a monster….The swarm moves in closer.

Scion: Wait. *looks up* My Storm! I got it! He quickly jumps up. Immediately afterwards, the swarm rushed up after him.

Scion: Hell’s Blade Rain!!! Different weapons engulfed in fire began falling. The locusts began scattering to dodge the attack while advancing forward.

Scion: Hell’s Kai Twister!! The flame from the weapons began swirling around him as he was rotating. As soon as the locusts were in 5 ft. range, they were incinerated.

Crystas: Interesting. He’s able to repel these insects with such ease. But he can’t keep it up for long.

Scion: *2 himself* They keep coming! Okay then. *Aloud* x2 Accel! He begins spinning at double the speed. The bugs zoom out in all directions. A large flying mantis bursts from the tornado towards Scion. Scion stops spinning. He engulfs his right arm in red kai and pulls it back with his left arm outstretched.

Scion: Hidden Meteor!! He thrusts his fist into the mantis. It immediately exploded on contact into tiny pieces. His other hand emitted white kai as he drew it back with his right arm outstretched.

Scion: Hidden Comet!! He thrust his left arm forward sending a large mass of kai toward the ground. The collision wiped out the remaining bugs.

Crystas: Ah! Such energy! Scion withdrew both arms and was surrounded in light pink kai.

Scion: Planet’s Collision!! He thrust his arms forward. An explosion followed immediately afterwards that leveled everything in a ¼ mile radius. Scion paused for a moment. He saw that Crystas had been completely obliterated. Notaro emerged from under a barrier of nearly demolished rock. Scion landed on the ground.

Scion: You’ve only seen the small stuff. A mass of deep red kai formed in his right hand.

Notaro: ……

Scion: Take this! He threw the kai underhanded at Notaro. Then a gargantuan mass of red and yellow kai formed overhead.

Scion: Solar Eradication!! The large mass of kai fell quickly to the ground. Notaro stood motionless as metallic barriers began forming around him from the ground. The collision leveled anything that was  already leveled and more in a ½ mile radius.

Scion: Heh. No one’s pushed me this far in a long time. The dust settled. Notaro’s barrier was gone but he still stood almost unscratched.

Scion: How?! That’s impossible! Notaro’s glasses began cracking before they burst into pieces revealing the crazed and unstable look in his eyes.

Scion: *Gasp* *2 himself* What’s with you? Notaro began smiling in a demonic way. His skin grew darker as green and blue markings grew all over him.

Scion: *2 himself* Snap out of it Scion! I can’t lose focus! Spikes began to come up from under his skin and around his Mohawk.

Scion: This time you DIE!!! I won’t setle for less! He jumped extremely high with a trail of red and black ki.

Notaro:…*demonic voice* Just….try…..  His eyes follow Scion to the sky.

Scion: I will DESTROY YOU!!
