Chapitre 41: The Power Of Music
Ekibyō looked at the giant Dragon as smoke blew from its mouth and nose. It snarled at him with its wide grin as it rushed towards him at full speed. Ekibyō send a red, spiraled blade beam at it but instead of it just being wiped away, this time a giant portal separated them, and absorbed the attack.
"What the!?" Ekibyō said as the portal closed
Then, his blade beam struck him the back as it came out the portal and instantly closed back. Then a portal opened up above Ekibyō and the Dragon came down like a comet and crushed him with its head. He struck the Dragon with a blade beam and it didn't do much damage but it actually did a little. It was only a small scratch on the forehead to the back of its neck.
"I see, So it can be harmed but can create portals to travel through. But it seems like it doesn't have a full body, or can/will not show it. It's almost as if the portals are its joints. The would explain it's long Chinese Dragon neck but it's thick, American Dragon head" Ekibyō thought as he teleported and jumped away
The Dragon went back into the portal as it shut. ~Ekibyō got his hands into a position as if he we're about to strum a guitar.~ Red energy wrapped around him, the ground shook, the sky split. ~Blacks lines ran down his eyes like a metal player's would wear their mascara.~ He sensed the portal about to open.
"柔らかい岩 ....(Yawarakai iwa....) Soft Rock...." Ekibyō mumbled
Red and black energy started forming in Ekibyō's palm as the portal opened. The energy turned into a black and red electric guitar as the Dragon came out and screeched, Ekibyō jumped up, spun around and shouted, "ピアスノート!! (Piasunōto!!) Piercing notes!!" as he strung hi guitar, sending out strong, focused waves of sound out and hitting the Dragon, cutting and breaking it apart as some waves were louder than others.
The Dragon was hushed but was still alive.
"エレクトロニック岩 (Erekutoronikku iwa) Electronic Rock" Ekibyō said as he prepared to flick the strings of his guitar
"ショート回路!!! (Shōto kairo!!!) Short Circuit!!!" Ekibyō shouted as he plucked the strings, sending out countless bolts of lightning, incinerating the giant dragon.
The wind started getting harsher, getting to up to speeds of 100 MPH due to the power Soren and Ekibyō were using. Neither of them minded the sand blowing at them at the same speeds as the wind.
"Yawarakai iwa..." Ekibyō said as he plucked his strings.
He started spinning around going slightly upward when going left and downward when right.Then, suddenly, Soren saw a few pieces of sand turn into water droplets, then more sand became water droplets, at that point the sand no longer sounded like sand, but water. The droplets started fusing into waves, spinning around the same way Ekibyō was, Soren clutched her spear and prepared for what was about to happen
"ミュージカルティダス!! (Myūjikarutidasu!!) Musical Tidas!!" Ekibyō shouted as he stopped spinning, swinging his guitar downwards and sending a giant tidal wave down on Soren
The wave came crashing down, engulfing her. Ekibyō started spinning around again and the wave spun with him. He struck his guitar and suddenly, bits of sand starting circling each other., they stopped sounding like sand and wind and began giving out a strange, futuristic type of sound. Static electricity was forming in the middle. Soren, who was still being drowned in a tsunami, started twirling her spear, causing spiraled waves inside the tsunami.
"It isn't fast enough!" She thought as she twirled it harder.
The sand and static electricity fused together and made a portal to a pocket dimension. Ekibyō spun around one final time, sending the tsunami into the portal, with Soren in it. She landed in the center of a dark forest, there weren't any animals or beast around and it was around midnight. She tightened her grasp and got into a firm stance. Ekibyō reappeared in the sky, blocking the full moon as the portal closed.
"りゅう火の玉! (Ryū hinotama!) Ryu Fireball!" Soren shouted as she thrusted her spear, sending out a giant, dark blue fireball at Ekibyō.
He destroyed it with his guitar and and then lifted it up again to strike. He jumped down and struck his guitar, black lightning started forming around his guitar.
"電気の...コンサートスマッシュ!! (Denki no... konsātosumasshu!!) Electric...Concert Smash!!" Ekibyō shouted and he slammed his guitar into Soren's face, destroying the ground, cutting the trees with the air pressure, and shocking Soren with the lightning.
Ekibyō jumped away before rushing back at Soren. She grabbed her spear after losing grip and prepared to swing. He threw his guitar at her as he began doing cartwheels towards her. Soren was confused but she still held her spear tight in her hand. When the guitar came close to Ekibyō and was about a foot away from Soren, He grabbed it, quickly roled towards her and slammed her into the ground with the guitar. Blood dripping through the crevices of her teeth, her bones crying in pain, the sickness that Ekibyō's cut meant to deliver earlier started kicking in now that she lost a lot of her adrenaline. Ekibyō swung his guitar like a baseball bat and broke her lower jaw all while sending her flying.
Soren reset her jaw and rushed at Ekibyō again.
"No tears--Commendable" Ekibyō said as he pushed his leg back slightly.
Soren seemed like she was about to thrust so he threw a kick to her l
jaw and she dodged it, then when she actually went to thrust he kicked her in the face then switched legs and kicked her in the neck, sending her airborne--She crashed down and laid there as Ekibyō approached.
Soren got up and reached out at him, with her hand open she shouted "Drago Pegno!" and a small, American Dragon made of dark blue flames shot out from her hand like a fireball.
Ekibyō destroyed it with his guitar and pulled a sword out of the top of the guitar. It was attached to the guitar by strings, he threw it at her and it went under her arm.
"ミュージカルバリア (Myūjikarubaria) Musical barrier" Ekibyō said firmly as he struck his guitar, creating an invisible wall in front of his guitar-sword...thing
When it hit the barrier it bounced back and went directly over her arm. After it went over her arm it bounced off another barrier and pierced her right shoulder. It continued bouncing off of barriers, piercing her heels, chest, arms, wrist, all while wrapping her with the strings connected to the blade, her left arm and right leg were tied up. The string disconnected from the blade and Ekibyō put it back into the guitar.
"引き付ける....ピース! (Hikitsukeru.... pīsu!) Attracting....Piece!" Ekibyō said as he played a song on his guitar, it sounded like soft rock.
Then suddenly, Soren was being dragged towards him, she was getting closer and closer, when she was close enough he started messing up purposely and then she was instantly blasted back by the horrid tune. She crashed throughout some tries and luckily, it cut the strings that were restricting her movement. She rushed at him with her back and he lifted up his leg, she threw a punch with all of her might, Ekibyō threw a kick back the their attacks collided, creating gust of wind, the two were sent flying back from eachothers attack but due to Ekibyō's superior force, her hand was fractured.
She stumbleded up but he punched her in the cheek, knocking her back down. He put the end of hid guitar to her neck in pushed it in the ground, chocking her. He pulled out the blade in his guitar and lifted it up to strike, when suddenly,
A small Dragon made of dark blue flames rushed in from behind, Ekibyō turned around in shock
"The one from earlier!?" He thought as He turned around, taking the guitar off of Soren's neck to swing.
He destroyed it but she stabbed him through the legs, threw herself over his shoulder, took her spear out of his legs and pointed her spear up towards the sky. Ekibyō was stumbling due to the condition of his legs, a small pillar of blue flames emerged from the sky and hit the tip of Soren's spear. Then more flames came from the sky, until the entire upper half of her spear was engulfed by the flames that came from the sky. He quickly caught on to what was happening, She jammed her foot into his right shoulder and clumped on top of him, She threw her spear down
engulfing Ekibyō in a pillar of flames.
The flames spread quickly.
Half of the forest was set a blaze by the powerful attack. The flaming pillar faded away and all that remained was a surprisingly not dead Ekibyō. She took her spear out his chest and took her foot out his shoulder. Smoke was practically erupting from his mouth. Soren spun around and kicked him in the cheek.
She punched him in the face then kneeing him in his chest, then with that same leg she kicked him in the neck. She lifted up her arm to punch him in the neck, he threw a punch with his right arm, she turned to the left and dodged it while landing her punch.
With her head down she noticed that Ekibyō was slowly moving his left leg toward her.
"It was...." She thought she tilted her head upward to see his left arm extending towards her face
Ekibyō pucnhed her in the face ~destroying~ her helmet. The power of his punch was so intense that trees, miles away, were blown right out the ground. The ground cracked into pieced like glass when it hits the ground. She was sent flying by the force, She crashed into a stone tower that was located at the edge of the forest island she was trapped in. She almost was sent into the water but she managed to stop herself from being tossed into the water. She took the time to see how banged up her armor was. Her left glove was shattered, her chestplate was cracked, the back of her boots were broken, her shoulder pads were nearly gone, ~Her mask was destroyed~.
"I can't win this" She said to herself as she heard Ekibyō's footsteps in the distance
"I might as well accept fate. I mean, it was my fault for rushing in alone" She said as tears starting building up
Then once again, she had thought of Zwyah's last words, but his words became muted to her, everything was fading away. She thought of all the things that happened, She felt no regret for letting this happen to her, but then She thought about what ~could~ happen if she fought back, the adventures she could go on, friends she could make, the moments she could share.
"Alright then, I guess I should fight back" She said as she sighed
She began stretching as Ekibyō arrived.
"Any last words, Dragon Tamer?" Ekibyō asked as he lifted you his guitar
"Ehhh...I guess..." She said as she searched her legs
"Well ya see, I can't just, ya know, let you kill me" Soren said
A look of confusing came across his face
"If I die, then my friends will be in danger, you'll hurt people, all that other bad stuff! Buuuuut. If I live then I can take care of important business, Like taking down strong foes like that Kohitsuji guy and I'll probably have to fight Sensō, Kikin, Shi" Soren
"I believe you're forgetting someone" He said angrily
" I said ~important~ business, Ekibyō" She said with a smirk
He got even angrier and he took a step forward.
"Since I don't want to lose my life nor do I want my friends to lose theirs..." Soren said
"You won't be able to keep up with me anymore" Soren said as blue flames swirled around her
"You're just spewing nonsense!" He shouted as swung his guitar at her.
Bang! His guitar slammed into the wall. The smoke cleared up and he saw nothing but what was on the other side of the hole he created. Then suddenly, he got kicked in the cheek and was sent crashing through the towers and sent flying about the ocean. Ekibyō hit the barrier that encloses his pocket dimension. It shocked him and he slowly fell down into the ocean. Then he instantly felt a strong punch to the gut and was sent right back to the island.
He was punched into the ground and then he finally saw what was hitting him. It was Soren that was doing all of it to him. He ran at her with his fist clenched, she ran at him with her full speed. He threw a punch and she did as well. Their punches collided and Ekibyō was the one sent flying. He prepared to block whatever blow she was planning to deliver next. She came from behind and punched him in the face, he was sent crashing down, he tried to bounce off of the ground with his legs but the force was too great, he ended up injuring his ankles and started rolling on the ground like a tumbleweed in in a storm.
He brought himself to a stop and got up to look around. He got punched in the side of his face, He tanked the hit but was still knocked back, he threw a kick but Soren dodged it and kicked him in the neck. After she vanished got hit with a beam of air pressure to his chest, it caused him to stumble back but it also put him on his toes. He got hit in the leg and left shoulder, the last beam of air pressure he dodged but then Soren appeared in front of him and swung her spear, he barely dodged it, as it skimmed his nose. She started teleporting everywhere, Ekibyō's eyes tried following her but he was unable.
Then he sensed something behind him, countless blade beams and fire balls were coming from behind. He turned around and tried to block but the first fireball broke his guard. He was pushed into the ground by the barrage of attacks, after the stream of attacks was over he crawled up the giant hole he was blasted into. He tried to sense where she was but he was unable to, for she was too fast for him to keep up. She kicked him in the ankle then punched him in the temple. He threw a strong left hook but she ducked and kicked him in all of his pressure points countless times before kicking him in the neck, sending him crashing into the ground, then kicking him in the backing, tossing him into a pile of rubble.
He got up and rushed at her, she vanished and appeared behind him. He turned around and threw a full force punch. She deflected it and kicked him in the side of his neck, Ekibyō tankes the hit and struck his guitar.
"ハードロック (Hādorokku) Hard Rock" Ekibyō said
"磁場! (Jiba!) Magnetic field!" He shouted as Soren's leg got stuck to his neck.
"Prepare yourself! For I shall deliver the finishing blow with my newly learned technique!" Ekibyō said as he lifted up his arm.
"病気うま--蹄!" (Byōki uma--hidzume!) Sick Horse--Hoof!" He shouted as he palmed her in the face with extreme speed and force.
The force of the attack was so powerful that he caused a tsunami. Blood flew out her mouth she didn't seem to mind the pain. She spit out a few teeth and lifted her arm back.
"ドラゴン爪! (Doragon tsume!) Dragon Claw!" She shouted as she punched him in the face so hard that the tsunami ~his~ punch created backwards
Blood was spilling out of his mouth as he looked at her in anger.
"You...." He said, grinding his teeth
"You call that a punch!?" He said
A look of shock instantly came across Soren's face.
"Byōki uma hidzume!" He shouted as he palmed her in the face.
"You say that as if that one was any better!" She said
"Doragon tsume!" She shouted as she punched him back.
They punched each other rapidly while throwing insults at each other. (They weren't that good at insults)
"You're nothing more than a rat!" Ekibyō shouted as he took a punch to the face.
"You say that yet I'm more of a man than you are!"Soren said as she punched him in the face
They continued throwing trash insults at each other along with their punches until.
"Your boyfriend doesn't love you" He said as he pucnhed her in the face.
At that moment she managed to get her leg off of his neck and she began spinning around as the magnetic force drew her back.
She extended her leg as she drew near and shouted, "ドラゴンテールホイップ! (Doragontēruhoippu!) Dragon Tail Whip! as she kicked him in the neck and slammed him into the ground.
Her leg was no longer magnetized to his neck after she kicked him. She looked at him with disgust and walked away.....before realising she was literally stuck in a pocket dimension and the portal that lead to it was practically made out of sand. She turned around and noticed he was gone--she just stared at the hole she made when she kicked him into the ground. She sensed something behind her and she pucnhed it without even turning around. When she heard him regain his balance she turned around and punched him into the ground.
His eyes were whited out as blood spilled from the crevices of his teeth. She kicked him in the back, launching him into the sky. As he fell down she kicked him in the stomach, she leaned back and put her hand on the ground and spun on it to kick him in the back of the head while instantly switching hands she turned and kicked him in the neck, causing everything below it to fold. She instantly punched Ekibyō in the back, lifting his head and the rest of his body off the ground as she got back up on two feet. She spun around with her leg and when she was halfway making a second circle her foot ignited with blue flames.
"Drago Pegno: Twirling Ago! (Twirling Ago= Twirling Needle)" She shouted as the flames on her foot turned into an American Dragon as she kicked him in the back, launching both him and the Dragon in a spiral toward another tower that borders the island.
As he crashes into the tower Soren laughed as he looked the man on an exit sign, mostly due to the constant spiraling. She had thought she was stuck until the ground began shaking, winds became harsh, shockwaves began to burst from the center if the island. The entire dimension began peeling off like paint, slowly revealing the outside world. All the dirt, remaining trees, towers, water were sucked into the middle of the island, creating an eerie sound. Both Ebikyo and Soren back to where they started. Since there was no longer a tower he just fell down, still in the pose as the exit sign man. Soren was a bit frightened by the sound that the dimension made as it was being sucked into itself.
"Strange....For some reason I thought it was gonna blow u-" ~fWooShshsgsh- the invisible dimension exploded sending Soren flying right to the door of her house (Convenient Right!?)
She got up and entered the house. I quickly turned my attention to the door opening. When she walked through the door I asked her what happened.(Because I'm just such a good boyfriend, always looking out for my loving other)
"I.....Sent them a warning..." She said as she collapsed on the ground
L’AVIS DES CRÉATEURS 
GinisGod
GinisGod For those who are confused I'll just say this. Soren has two "movesets" one is creating dragons out of blue flames (The ones in Italian) and the other is just simple things like fireballs and blade beams (The ones in Japanese)
