As soon as Aril and Gun got out of the nautilus, they saw Dage waiting for them. Beside Dage was a huge hole, as if Dage punched a hole through the nautilus to catch up with them. Being so furious for he cannot believe that he was defeated with only a single kick by Gun.
"You were just lucky, boy! It's time to end this here right here right now!" Dage angrily said to Gun.
"We'll see about that!" Gun replied.
Gun and Dage then dashed towards each other and started fighting. They exchanged blows one with another so great that gusts of wind can be felt near where they are fighting. Grounds shook as they leaped and fought in mid air. Gun then delivers a punch to Dage's chest and sends him crashing to the ground. "Is that all you've got Dage?" Gun asked as if Gun want's to fight more.
Dage got back up and started glowing yellow. His body then began to change. His bulky body began to be slimmer, his height increased abnormally, the fingers on his hands have now grown super long. The scars all over his body and face began to open and started spewing thick black smoke. "This is my true form! Behold! Bow down to your God!" He shouted. He dashes forward again but now he is more faster and stronger than before. Gun was caught in surprise for he could not react to the speed of the attacks Dage was doing.
"Die! Die! Die!!" Dage repeatedly said as he unceasingly attacked Gun, moving around because of his speed and power.
Meanwhile, Aril was standing a bit far from where Gun and Dage were fighting. "I can't see a thing in this thick smoke!" Aril said as she waits for Gun.Meanwhile on Lilith's ship.
Sergeant-"Captain! the two hostile targets have now been spotted on top of their vehicle! It seems that they are fighting against subject D-463!"Lilith-"Command D-463 to stand down and withdraw! We shall shoot then down! Send the snipers!"
The sergeant then tries to contact Dage but Dage did not respond because he has now gone berserk. "Captain! Subject D-463 did not respond! It seems that he has lost control over his familiar!"the sergeant said. "Well then! Prepare the subjugation squad!" This battle will be over soon!" Lilith said while having a menacing grin on her face.As the fight goes on, Gun tried to go back so she could find Aril. But the thick smoke and Dage's relentless attacks impede him from doing so.
"(At this state I can't defeat Dage, I need to go find Aril to be at my maximum power. I can withstand him with his attacks and overpower him. But his speed is something that I can't reckon with.)" Gun thought as he was constantly attacked by Dage.
"What's wrong Gun? Given up already? How about we play a little game!" Dage laughs as he continues to attack Gun. "That girlfriend of yours looks stunningly hot! How 'bout you giv'em to me and I let your sorry butt go!" Dage exclaims.
"No! Get your hands off of Aril!" Gun shouted.
After that, Dage suddenly stops attacking. A bone pops out of his shoulder then proceeds to pull it out then the bone he pulled out became a long scythe maid of bones. "I thought you'd say that! Too bad you won't witness how I'll devour Aril, and make her scream! Ha! Ha! Ha!" Dage said as he dashed forward to slash Gun.
Having no time to react, Gun gets slashed by Dage leaving him wounded and unconscious. His glowing blood that appears like magma scatters every where.
As the thick smoke slowly rises, Dage's menacing laugh could be heard from a far.
"Gun! -no!" Aril screamed as she saw Gun lying on the ground unconscious and bleeding. As she was looking at him. She saw gun signaling her to save herself.
She then smiles a little "What am I doing? You just killed me a while a ago and now here I am all concerned about you!" She then stood up and shouted " no Gun I'll save you we're partners right?" Dage then looked at her and said "you're next!" She then noticed that the seal on her left hand is glowing. While her hand was glowing a the voice of Freya can be heard on the seal on her left hand "Aril! Listen to me! I don't have much time! You can boost Gun's power as you fuse both body and soul to him!" Freya said.
"How do I do it then! And who are you?" Aril asked.
"Use the crystal that is now embedded in your left palm! You must touch the seal on Gun's back! The moment you do this! The Spark of bond will ignite! Enabling you to be one with Gun both body and soul! Good luck Aril!" The voice of Freya then disappeared.
"Easier said! than done! How do I get past that monster then?" Aril asked herself. She then sensed that Dage was behind her. "Peekaboo I see you!!!" Dage said as he tried to slash Aril.
Aril was surprised as he suddenly dodged it with perfect ease. She then started running towards gun, while Dage tries to kill her. She ran while dodging all of Dage's attacks "whoah! What is happening to me? What's with this sick reflexes and speed! I feel as light as air!" Aril said. She then slides towards Gun and touched his the seal on his back!
"Tell me this works!" Aril said as she touched the seal on Guns back. As soon as the seal on her hand and the seal on the back of Gun touched. A strong light fell down upon them knocking Dage to his back."Captain a strange phenomenon is occurring at subject D-463's location!"
Lilith ran outside the ship to look at the light "what is this?" She then received an order from the higher ranking officers.
"Yes sir! Copy!" After having received a command he then went back to the room. "Change of plans! The order now is to capture those to targets! Alive!"————To be continued————
