My apologies once again my friends. My best friends birthday was coming up, so I spent Sunday preparing for his party. I would've loved to get a heads up from the guy, butttttt- y'know. Here is your chapter!
_________________________________
"Well, fortune seems to have favored me today," The girl smiled menacingly.
"Judging from your attitude, and deviousness, I take it that you're Chaos?" I said, attempting to subdue the sheer malice I had for this girl.
I took a moment to gaze at the small girl. Not even 3'6, she had green-blonde locks of hair, and she resembled the strange girl I had met at the beginning of the week.
"The one and only," She laughed, before motioning over to one of the metallic objects clasped to her back.
"You're that girl asking for her daddy right? What, realize he left your sorry ass?" I laughed to myself.
"This red haired girl was pretty boring, so I'm taking her home, in pieces," She taunted.
"I'll kill you before that happens," I gently smile.
"You can try, but I don't really care about my brother's rules, only my brother himself," She laughed to herself before forming a purple and black dagger.
I lunged forward, nailing her in the head with a left jab that sent her flying back, crashing through several trees. I looked to Itsuki, and saw her alright, the metal that tightly clasped her taking the brunt of the impact. I put pressure on the ground, and jumped forward after Chaos, dodging through several purple and black flames that were thrown in my direction. Quickly, I got in close, and threw down a haymaker, slamming her into the ground, and then spun around, and delivered a swift ax kick to her back. She attempted to get up and out of the ground, only to be met by the back of my foot again, kicking her back into the ground. Quickly jumped onto her back, mounting as much force as possible, and she coughed heavily, her blood flowing from the mouth. I brought out the fierce god slicer, and aimed it toward her heart, penetrating it. As she lay there, unmoving, I made my way over to Itsuki, and quickly cut her loose from the restraint she was in. She squirmed and riggled, attempting to get the restraints off of her, and as soon as I had her mouthpiece off, Itsuki began to shout.
"Black! She's not down, in fact this was her plan!" She screamed, as I was quickly sent flying several miles through the forest.
I brought out my slicer again, planting it in the ground, and slowing myself down, only to be greeted by a kick from the girl. I spun around, using my opposite hand as a slicer, and severed her leg, or so I thought, because as soon as I had done so, she faded out.
"Black, do you know what Chaos is?" She laughed to herself, her voice indescribably loud.
"I don't care bitch, now give me back Itsuki," I replied.
"Chaos is the process of everything all at once, you can't stop Chaos because it's all around you. This world needs Chaos, and you need it. Black you can't stop me because you need me," She mocked.
Several illusions of her began to form all around the forest, all of them attempting attacks. I dodged and weaved around every single one of them, slashing if they ever got too close. Purple and black fire began to cloak the forest, and it slowly edged its way towards me. From the ground, metal blades erupted, all spiraling around me, attempting to stab and pull me apart.
I whirled around, honing two Slicers, and tore apart as many of the blades as I could. They kept growing and growing, smoke choking up all my senses, my hearing jammed by the laughing of Chaos, and my thoughts cut out by the stunning purple and black.
'Con-' I thought to myself.
'Concentrate' I managed to formulate.
'I've got my mind back now, all that's left is to strike Chaos through wherever she is,' I reasoned.
I went back to see all my knowledge of Chaos thoughts spun around in my head, until I found one key point.
'Y'know, since ya killed Order, Chaos has no one to reel her back.' The voice spoke.
"That's right, if this is all Chaos, then the only place she can hide is Order," I realized.
Quickly I flew out of the forest, cutting through everything that got in my way. As I reached the sky, I quickly looked down. Amidst a far away tree top, Chaos stood, conjuring a sphere in which the purple and black clad forest lay. Quickly I flew over to the girl, and hit her with a high kick. She was sent back flying. I didn't let up, instantly closing the gap, and suplexing the kid.
"Why don't we take this up a notch?" Chaos laughed, her body cloaking itself in a purple-black light.
As soon as the light disappeared, Chaos had aged, she now looked just about thirteen, her outfit was slightly torn, and she clutched a pair of blue shoes to her chest. Her eyes were Blue and Red, and her strands of hair now had a more pale look to them. Her blades were more jagged and sinister and she housed 4 of them on her back, and she now had two pulsating orbs, a purple one on her left, and a black on her right.
I spared her no mercy, quickly making my hair go gold, and both effortlessly and quickly, I nailed her with a right cross. She was sent flying back, but quickly used both the orbs to slow herself down. She quickly combined the four blades, and brought them down as a hammer. I dodged instantaneously, only to be hit from the purple orb off to the side. Quickly I formed a Kamehameha, only to be knocked back by the black orb. Chaos had pulled her hammer out of the ground, and honed all 4 of her blades into large cutlasses. She closed the gap, and went in for a slash with all four swords. I used a holy light grenade, and launched us both in opposite directions. I quickly dodged another attack from one of the orbs, only to be caught by the black orb knocking me back into Chaos's next attack. She brought down a massive ax, which I avoided, guiding it away with my slicer. One of the blades deformend, and then attempted to cut me in two. I speedily rolled away, only to narrowly avoid another orb. I parried another two attacks from the orbs, and then backstepped again when another heavy attack came from Chaos.
'I see, so her plan is to use the lighter attacks to push me into ideal positioning for her, and then attack me with the big strike.' I formulated.
The purple orb quickly flew in, attempting to knock me into Chaos's giant broadsword, but I retaliated by dodging, and then closing the gap myself. Chaos brought down the sword, but it did nothing for her, as I quickly avoided the swing. I launched myself forward, and kicked one of the shoes out of her hand. She dropped her subsequent attack, and ducked down to retrieve the shoe. I took the opportunity to land another ax kick to her head. She collapsed to the floor, reaching out to the far away shoe. I quickly hit her again with another ax kick before charging another Kamehameha.
"Goodbye bitch." I smirked, blasting her into oblivion.
As the attack faded, I saw Chaos, her whole body now looking to be 18. Her hair now all white, and her outfit gone in place for a new black and purple Nun's outfit. Her eyes were now pulsating with fury, and eight massive blades were clad to her back. Around her, five orbs flew, all pulsating with elements. Two were black, two purple, and one a mix of both.
Chaos closed the gap instantly, kicking me upwards to the sky, and picking up her shoes. I narrowly avoided several orbs flying at me, and then dove past a purple laser from one of the orbs. Four large blades stabbed and jabbed at me, but I quickly spun around them, gunning for Chaos. Another pink laser cut off my direct route, and quickly a black orb collided with me, my body immovable for a moment. The four blades quickly caught up to me, opting to stab and slash my body. I cut through the first three, but the fourth one got an insignificant cut on my body. I kicked it away, continuing to dive in to attack Chaos. The girl quickly called down several lightning bolts in order to divert my path. I grazed each one, and then landed a solid punch to the face on her. She was launched back into several nearby trees, and I instantly followed up by another jab, and then a cross, and then another jab. With every subsequent hit she was knocked back further and further. Finally I spun around, reeling back for another hit before.
"Finalizer Class: Absolute Chaos," She mumbled.
I instantly opened my eyes to a barren forest, burning, and several large craters within.
"What?" I asked aloud.
"My ageloid directive program, this forest has succumbed to Chaos." Chaos smiled, tired out.
"It still won't stop me." I reeled back, attempting another final blow on the girl. Chaos quickly warped behind me, and whispered a simple, "not quite," before kicking me across the whole forest.
"How'd you get that much stronger?" I asked, amazed.
"Chaos is stronger in its own element, and I am too," She replied smiling.
"Well then, I'll show you what I can do," I responded, going Super Saiyan 2.
I nailed Chaos with a kick, sending her halfway through the forest. Suddenly she disappeared, and several illusions popped out from where she once stood. I fired several key blasts, taking down the illusions, all the while the scenery adjusted to our speed. Chaos dropped in from above, several leaves falling from the sky alerting me of her presence. I grasped her shin, and slammed her into the ground. She took the blow, and then repeated the same hit on me, this time with her wings. I crashed to the ground, dirt and rocks flying all over. I clutched onto her wing, crushing it in my grip, and then flung her into the flaming shrub nearby. She impacted it head first, her clothing slightly singing, all the while ashes fell from the incinerated forest. Three of the orbs bounced around as if they were pinballs, blasting purple lasers. Several trees fell as a result of their action, one of which I narrowly avoided.
"Hey Chaos, why are we here?" I asked, quite annoyed at the scenery that we had settled on fighting in.
"I need riftual energy to be permitted into the city. This forest is the only place I can get said energy from." She responded, droplets of fluid running down her arm.
"Why?" I responded, clutching my fist, and readying a pink scythe.
"I've been banned from the city, so I need riftual energy from this world to break the barrier." She smirked, her blades glistening in the burning flames.
Her blade slammed down, I quickly blocked it with my scythe, and twisted, forcing her to recoil back. She grimaced, before pincering me from the side with two jagged blades. I bounced out of the gap, parrying with my scythe, and causing pink sparks to pulse and fly all over. Chaos lunged forward, nailing me with a feint, sending me fumbling back into a nearby tree. My back impacted with it, and pinkish black ashes fell from the ruined leaves. I set my hand down for a moment, catching my breath, only to feel a puddle beneath me. I looked down only to see some of my blood, slowly combining in a pool.
'Where?' I looked around, attempting to spot my injury. I felt my right calf, and sure enough, the skin on it was torn off.
'But she never hit me,' I thought. I was quickly cut off by Chaos's sadistic looking figure stepping foot out of the forest. I slowly readied myself for another clash, when I took a glance at her same calf. Sure enough, she was bleeding too.
Chaos lunged forward, all her wings extending out for a pierce attack. I spun my scythe around, quickly countering all her attacks. She went in for an ax kick, all her blades diffracted. I replied to her assault with a simple vertical-parallel guard, opting to raise one hand above my head horizontally, and mirroring the same thing below my head. The kick impacted my arm, but instead of breaking through my guard, she recoiled back, the force of impact and balance becoming too much for her. She stumbled back, and I hit her with an uppercut to the gut. She collapsed down long enough for me to nail her in the head with a horizontal kick, sending her flying off to the side. Three of the blades lurched forwards, going for a jab to the legs. I kicked all three of them away, only to be cut by one from the back. I reeled forward, and clutched the blade that managed to slice me. I spun around and tore off the blade.
"One down," I smirked, "Nine to go."
Suddenly, my back burst, beginning to bleed.
'Right,' I thought, remembering her pain reflecting power.
"Can you last 9 more blades?" Chaos laughed, "You're bleeding pretty badly."
Five blades all convened in, focusing on my abdomen. I speedily parried all of the blades, and then jumped over several lasers just barely in time.
"So, mind telling me how you got here?" Chaos spoke, her blades all retracting.
She was tired, sweat gathered on her forehead, and her hair slightly dripping thanks to her exhaustion. Still, she gathered her strength, and pushed forward. Her back spouted blood, and it slowly dripped to the ground beneath her. Her walking was stunted too, all the injuries made quick work of her movements.
"I was sent here by someone I don't know," I responded, catching my breath, "they played into my goals, so I figured I'd play into theirs"
I was tired too. My body was damaged. I wasn't sweating as bad as her, but I was still sweating. My calf wasn't bleeding as bad. Ki allowed me to keep a lot of blood in my body. Still, this fight was draining. Especially from the lack of recovery I got from fighting Trex.
Chaos burst forward, doing a spin kick midair. I dodged back, and then jumped over one of the blades. Quickly as it came, another blade went down for a downward vertical slice, but as quickly as it slammed down, I clutched it in my hands. My hands were quickly cut up, but hers were too. I pulled back, about to tear off her wing, when quickly she retracted the blade, grinding my hands even more. In one last effort, I lunged forward, creating a slicer on my finger, and dug into her blade. I pulled back, and began to tear it from her back. Chaos struggled, reeling back, and attempting to break loose, even opting to use the orbs to slow me down, but I bore with the brunt of the attacks, and finally, her wing gave in.
"Eight left Chaos, you still want to keep going," I said out of breath.
I knew I didn't have much left in me. The ash and smoke began to drown my lungs, and the purple fire began to become a blinding haze.
"I'll keep going for Jared's sake," She muttered, gathering in energy.
All eight blades flew around, extending outward. I grabbed one of them, and began to tear, however several bolts of lightning began to shoot out from the sky at my arm. I quickly let go, and then fired off a holy light grenade, catching several of the blades in the blast. Suddenly, all 8 blades burst out from the ground, causing me to backstep more than I currently was. The orbs got in close, firing lasers, and causing me to slow down. It was clear that chaos was tired, almost too tired. This was her last resort. I clutched one of the blades, letting it pierce my hand, and then effortlessly, I ripped it out of her back. More and more blood began to pour out of my back. From afar I heard a loud screech from Chaos. The blades all split into little jagged pieces that began and continued to extend more and more. I formed a katana from my ki, and began to hack and slash through every single little blade. From behind, another large blade began to strike. I shoved my katana into the ground, piercing it too. Quickly I began to tear, ripping off this blade too. The orbs and blades kept moving more sporadically, and my blood began to pile up. I began feeling light headed and nauseous, but this was no time to give up. I grasped onto another unlucky blade, and tore, pulling it out. Soon I grabbed another one and ripped it out. The remaining four burst out from all around, I sheathed my blade, and whispered a single word.
'Might as well try it,' I thought to myself.
"Sever," I whispered.
The blade dropped limp to the ground. Another pain let out in my back.
'So, it cuts it off at the head, perfect,'
"ENOUGH!" I heard Chaos shout.
All three blades retracted as I caught my breath. Quickly, I began to see burning trees flying off their stumps in the distance. I speedily jumped over a long jagged blade, and then dodged past several hundred falling burning trees. When the dust cleared, the clearing was empty. Chaos was tired out, standing in the middle of the trees, and in the distance, I could see a large city.
"This is it Chaos, give up," I smirked, skipping Super Saiyan 3 and going straight to god.
"On the contrary," She smiled, one of the blades quickly pulling back, clutching a scared girl in her arms, "You called game too early."
"Itsuki," I muttered, jumping forward, the pink Katana clutched in my hand.
Chaos slammed her blades down, but I quickly parried blade after blade, getting ever closer to the girl. She continued to back up, but I was able to make too much progress forward. I quickly used the sever technique, and soon all that remained were two blades. All of Chaos's confidence began to melt away quickly.
"Goodbye Chaos," I smirked, rushing in for a killing blow.
Chaos quickly jumped back, using her last two blades to try to finish me off. I jumped over and around them, continuing to close the gap. She spun around, kicking up large trees, to which I responded by cutting through those too. She continued to back off, trying to stop me from getting close, but it was all for not.
"SEVER," I shouted, quickly sheathing and unsheathing my blade.
Chaos fell limp, her body slumping down, and her head rolling from her shoulders. I quickly slumped down and caught my breath. I looked over to Itsuki, who was trying to make her way over to me, only to fall back, tired out.
"I knew you would make it Black," Itsuki smiled, helping me up, "You always do."
Slowly we walked to the nearby city, Ituski helping me every step of the way.
"Your whole family is crazy worried," I laughed.
"I'd expect them to be," She remarked. "Although it's all fine."
"What'd she do to you?" I asked.
"She wasn't able to do anything. Several of these "Ageloids," showed up, and fought her back, kept insisting something about needing to help this Jared guy or something," Itsuki laughed.
'I've already told Itsuki about Jared, so it's clear that this isn't her,'
Quickly I flung the fake Itsuki forward, rolling her into a nearby tree.
"Aww, what gave it away?" Chaos's voice echoed.
I formed another sword and pointed it at her.
"The fact you AREN'T ITSUKI," I grimaced.
"You were fooled at first," Chaos smiled, Itsuki's body now shriveling into Chaos's tiny form. "Good things aren't meant to last."
I lunged forward, grabbing one of her blades and pulling with my max effort. It did rip, but instantly it grew back.
"You didn't think you were actually fighting me did you?" Chaos smiled.
"That whole fight was an illusion?" I asked, annoyed.
"Precisely." She responded, smirking, "well the fire was real, and the terrain damage, just the illusion."
"Then how did you-" I began before being cut off.
"How did I hurt you in exact locations? Well Black, that's what Ageloids do, we're perfect." She laughed, "It's not hard to do advanced calculations."
I couldn't fight her as I was, it was clear that I had lost this bount with no feasible means of reclaiming what I gave up.
"Now then Black, it's time you finally get what you rightfully deserve... DEATH," She cackled, her blades diverging into millions of sharp objects.
In an instant I was down, and another instant I was stuck on the ground, bleeding, gaping holes all present on my body. It was clear, I had finally lost and it cost me everything.
'I'm sorry Nino, you too Ichika, Miku, Yotsuba, and Itsuki. I failed, I hope that you can look back at me as a friend and not as someone you hate.'
Chaos walked away with a smile. In her sights: the city.
"I'll save you, no matter what, and then we can both be happy." She laughed to herself.
It was clear to any party, Chaos had finally lost it. In their battle, an entire forest was clear, and a single figure slowly left the fallout. Burning trees scattered the perimeter, and a single glaive lie at the edge of a rocky field. In her hand, Chaos clutched a black triangle-like shard. Slowly she walked forward, and a large barrier formed around the city to stop her. She channeled in the energy from the shard, and slowly the barrier began to fade away, as a green mist rotted it to its core.
"Oh, I almost forgot," Chaos smiled, her wing quickly extending out, and then coming back clutching a girl. "I need my leverage."
A large crack resounded from behind her, and Chaos looked back to see several large cracks forming around Black before they all exploded.
"Well, if he wasn't dead before, he definitely is now," Chaos laughed before entering the city.
