Dark Light

CHAPTER NINETEEN

Things have changed

Darkness looked around in confusion. It was in the edge of worlds. But it doesn't remember using the passages. It quickly became fully alert when it realized that it was Light who had brought it here. Darkness couldn't help have an amused look on its face when it turned around.

It had been ages since it has seen the view that was now in front it. Ages since it had seen Light in its warrior form. In Light's hand was its beloved trident of colors. Deadly just as it was beautiful. The glow around him brighten, almost blinding. But still not pure light. Light's form was five times the size of Darkness currently. Its entire body was no longer shifting between phases. But in one solid form. Clad with its fighting uniform. Metal guarding all the vital parts. The coverts of the wing were covered in mostly unbreakable metal. Knuckles claws emerged from the back of its hand. There was still one more thing left of its form. And Darkness hoped Light didn't let that out.

"As much as I would to fight you, can we not do this" Darkness asked

Light sneered hearing that and held its trident up. The tip was pointed directly towards Darkness as it spoke. Darkness sighed. It didn't want to fight. It truly didn't want fight, knowing that all wounds on Light's form, if deep enough, would be reflected Jimin's body. And he couldn't leave the fight as well.

"I don't assume you are scared" Its voice bellowed, "And don't dare to pity me"

Darkness fought the impulse of screaming 'no' when gigantic wings sprouted from Light's back. The coverts were armed with sharp, nearly unbreakable, armors. However, Darkness didn't need to see the wound that must have formed on Light's back. A scar so deep that it would definitely be reflected on Jimin's body.

So, helpless, Darkness let out a deep sigh and transformed into its warrior form. Now, it matched Light's size and height. It grunted in pain when two pairs of wings grew from its back. Feathers of pure darkness that even looking at it from a distant gave an overwhelming feeling. Dark nebulae swirled around him as an armor. Robes of darkness started from its shoulders and fell down like a silent waterfall. Then, it conjured its double headed spear in its hand and stood in attack stance. Its motive was to weaken Light. Just make it waste its energy till it decides to head back.

"One last time" Darkness spoke, "End this fight"

"Never" Light growled and charged forward.

Darkness too, charged forth. It swung its spear above its head to gain enough moment before striking at Light. The other being, blocked the attack with its trident and jolted it forwards. The sharp edge of the tip barely skimmed past Darkness forms. Next time, Light attacked first. Since, Darkness was so close to Light, it barely managed to evade the oncoming offense. Once it completely dodged the attack, it swung its spear again. However, Light easily blocked it. Both the beings jumped backward to a safe distance. Darkness waited for Light's next move. Light's wings flapped majestically, lifting its body upwards.

"What happened, my dearest foe?" Light asked, gaining a sufficient height, "Your attacks feel a little blunt"

Darkness maintained an indifferent attitude as it rose upwards. It could feel its power being drained up the residing souls. Like this, it won't be long before they would be weak enough and have to head back to Earth. Just a little longer, Darkness thought and attacked.

They kept on fighting, one blow after another. Darkness kept on blocking all the attacks, not once landing its own. Even it had so many chances to do so. Sometimes, it would let Light let a proper attack on its body. Groaning when the silver lines formed on its body. It was just so that Light didn't start to suspect what Darkness was actually trying to do. Though at times, Light seemed wary before attacking. But Darkness need only taunt it a few times before rage filled Light. Though Darkness thought it a bit too far, for Light attacked with all its might. Some of the attacks were a bit too strong to be just blocked.

Darkness swung its spear, aiming for Light's head. It feared that it moved a bit too fast and that Light won't be able to block. So, it slowed down just before the spear would hit Light. However, in that moment, Darkness missed predicting Light's next attack.

Darkness groaned as Light's wing threw him afar. The blades on the arms creating a ghastly wound on its body. The silver line that formed was so thick that even Light could see it from so far away.

Darkness stood back on its feet. It could feel that its powered was drained too minimum. It was only moments, before Light fell down to similar conditions. It just had to keep it distracted for that long. A few attacks later, Light too, was panting hard. Darkness thanked under its breath seeing that there were no wounds deep enough to show up on Jimin's body.

Then, it spread its arms around and made certain gestures. Light recognized it and growled in annoyance. It shot towards Darkness, but before it could reach their bodies turned to smoke. And then were transported back to Earth.
