Capítulo 35: Rise of the Darkness
Okubi had removed all gods and goddesses that opposed him. From the god of pacifism to the goddess of emotions he had defeated and banished them all. All those who remained followed Okubi without question and those that didn't were merely 'reconditioned' with the power of the newly wielded celestial weapon of darkness. The omni-god dared not challenge him in fear that Okubi would kill all of them and send the universe into a spiral of destruction that would kill even the strongest of gods and goddesses.
"So what do we do now?" asked Jack. He walked up to the throne Okubi was sitting in that was made out of wood that had been covered in dark energy to make a dark energy, wooden throne. It was over the top but he seemed to like it.
"There are many people left on earth who have abilities. But there's only eight who are a threat to our goals. One of which is your old friend James." said Okubi.
"Old friend? James? Who is this person?" asked Jack.
"Ah yes, your memories were altered. That boy you fought for a while before that girl blew up. He's a descendant of mine and he's being tutored by my own son. I want you to eradicate them. Taking their abilities won't be enough to teach them why they shouldn't oppose me."
"As you wish. Should I utilise prison CR-eight-two?"
"...No. We'll wait until he's fulfilled his sentence. Then we'll send him out to do some field work." Jack nodded and made his way to earth.
Jack appeared out of the air to be faced with the front doors of the Asurian Sanctuary. He kicked open the doors and made quick work of the refugees that were in the vicinity. He then moved around the building and cleared room by room until he reached the training room. James, Izzy, Liam, Cynthinia, Lucifer, Abigail, Mathew, and Matilda were all diverting a group of people into a tunnel. They had noticed Jack enter and were trying to get as many people to safety as possible. When they saw Jack, they quickened their pace.
"I'll hold him off, you get these people to safety!" shouted James. Blocking out Cynthinia's cries about losing control, James charged and Jack for a rematch.
James jumped into the air and brought himself down with a heel strike that Jack grabbed. He threw James into the wall the dashed forward while bringing out his celestial weapon. He swung it at James who quickly ran behind Jack and elbowed him in the back of the head. Jack crashed into the wall but pushed himself out and turned without any signs of damage. James started to run to the equipment cabinet but Jack appeared in front of of him and kicked him through the far wall. Jack floated over to the hole in the wall and peered in. He was met with a flaming fist to the face that sent him flying into the cabinet.
James, shrouded in light red fire, ran at Jack who put his scythe away; he wouldn't need it for this. Jack ran at James and they both collided in the middle of the room with an explosion of power. The explosion dissipated and revealed James and Jack with their hands locked together and their auras lashing at one another. James began to push Jack backwards who retaliated with a swift kick to the stomach that put James a few centimetres off the ground. Jack then punched the airborne opponent out the window and into the area outside the front of the building.
"I've wasted enough time with this pointless fight." said Jack. He floated out the broken window, brought out his celestial weapon again, and landed in front of James.
James looked up with one swollen eye and cuts all over his body. Jack picked James up by the throat and looked him dead in the eyes.
"Jack, I know your in there! Snap out o-" James was silenced by the sudden yet slow pain in his chest. He slowly looked down with shaking eyes to find a blade lodged through his chest and heart. Jack lent in close to James' face.
"The Jack you knew is no more. Now be a good boy and die already." said Jack. James' breath escaped from his lips involuntarily and his head dropped to rest on Jack's hand. Jack threw the body of James to the ground and turned but didn't hear the 'thud' of the motionless body hitting the floor.
He turned and looked at James' body being held up by Lucifer kneeling on his right knee. Lucifer slowly rested James' body down and stood up. Walked to James' feet and planted his heels just in front of James'.
"You can't possibly think you can defeat me? I beat James without any trouble and he's even stronger than you!" exclaimed Jack. Lucifer chuckled.
"Yeah, he is probably stronger than me..." said Lucifer. He suddenly became encased in an aura of blue fire and he grew a pair of red horns and a pointed tail. He put his arms out as if hugging a massive object. "...but he's much, much stronger than we could have ever hoped for. Isn't that right father?" Lucifer looked upwards, fell backwards onto James, and fused with him. James' body burst to life and he donned his patchy blue fire aura.
James got up and the large hole the scythe had made was filled with blue energy like James' arm.
"You've got five minutes James. That's all the time I can buy you." said Lucifer in James' head. He was pumping his energy into James to keep him alive but he would run out. Jack gritted his teeth and let out a full force punch which James deflected to the side with the back of his left hand and twisted his own body into a punch of his own with his right arm. It planted on Jack's face and sent him into a spin that made him drop his scythe. James stepped back, quickly thrust his arm out, and caught Jack by his face.
"Going up?" asked James in an angry voice and he shot up into the air bringing Jack with him.
Now in the sky, James proceeded to pummel Jack with full force punches, kicks, and elbow strikes. Jack began to fall down but James grabbed him by the collar of this cloak and pulled him close.
"What's the matter Jack? Feeling a bit down?" asked James and he threw Jack to the ground and quickly followed after him. By the time James had passed through the clouds, Jack had already hit the floor and was laying in a small crater. "Time to finish this. And with time to spare to have more fun." James began to accelerate towards the ground with his right fist held back getting ready to punch.
James trust his fist forwards towards Jack who quickly smiled and pointed two fingers at James with him thumb up to imitate a gun. He brought his thumb down and James felt as if his inside were being shredded apart. Jack moved out of the way as James slammed into the ground and enlarged the crater. Jack stood up breathing heavily and his wounds quickly healed without a trace.
"Your not the only one with fancy tricks! Now you can dis together" shouted Jack. He picked up his scythe and disappeared into nothingness leaving James on the floor...
