Angel

Hey guys, before we start this I just want to say thank you. The three chapters combined have almost 100 views already! I know that sounds small but I feel extremely happy to know that this story is turning out better than I thought. With that out of the way, please enjoy.

In Marco's Dream

"Ha!" Marco cried as he swung his sword at the shadow. The Shadow smirked before sidestepping it. Then it retaliated by swinging horizontally. Marco was just barely out of reach. It did however nick a piece of his hoodie. He slid backwards and kneeled to catch his breath. The Shadow spun his sword around and laughed.

"What's wrong, tired already?" Shadow taunted. Marco growled before staggering back to his feet.

"I'm just getting started!" Marco yelled as he charged. He clashed again with his shadow and flew backwards.

Wow, you're showing some guts today aren't ya? The Shadow asked. Marco landed on his back with a thud. Well, since you're actually giving me a challenge, I guess I'll answer some of your questions. But first, let me ask you this, have you ever heard of a Shadow Knight?

"A..Shadow...what?" Marco huffed out.

Nah, I guess you haven't. So I'll tell ya. A Shadow Knight does not mean they're clad in armor or use swords. It means that we are users of the dark side, seekers of darkness(If any of you play Kingdom Hearts not those 'seekers of darkness'). We can look as ordinary as any other human.

"So you're saying I'm a shadow knight?" Marco asked.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! Yes you, Marco Diaz, are a shadow knight. But do not think you are the only one. Shadow knights are everywhere. Heck, some don't even know they're shadow knights! For all we know there could be more in your school.

"Wow, I didn't know that there's more than one of someone like me." Marco commented. Suddenly he rolled over to the side to avoid the blade coming down on him.

If you want more answers, then come and ask them through your sword! The Shadow yelled. It's sword then began to emit a large dark aura around it.

Shadow Wave!

With one swing, a large, black save cut through the air towards Marco. He was stunned for couple of seconds before making a decision. He got in a ready stance held his sword in front of him. Just the shadow's his blade began to emit dark energy. Then he brung his sword behind him and swung vertically.

"Shadow Wave!" Marco cried out as he launched a vertical wave of shadows to intercept the horizontal wave his shadow had sent. The two waves collided and created a huge smokescreen. Marco wasted no time and charged in, only to be met by his shadow. The two swung their blades at each other and collided once more.

Later...

Star groaned as she sat up from the bed. She looked at Marco and felt her face glow before slapping herself. She needed to get ready for school. So she left Marco's room and went into her own to get ready for school. After getting ready, she ran downstairs and grabbed a cereal bar. She ran upstairs to grab her backpack from her room. As she walked out of her room, she stared at something she thought was downright beautiful. With his shirt half on, Marco's stomach was showing and Star had to keep herself from staring and drooling. She turned away quickly and closed her door.
