2022-05-10 00:20:06The battle was getting very difficult, this guy's speed was impressive, but I had to react or else he would kill me. It was too early for that.
"Try this, you son of a bitch!" A fist engulfed in fire approached, I immediately dodged it.
-What did you think? What couldn't be at your pace? You're wrong if you thought that, that's why I'm the chosen one—my power increased much more every second that passed.
His kicks were very good, but I could see his movements with great pressure, I took his leg throwing him very long, but the guy took a turn slowing down the speed falling into a good posture.
"I don't know how you'll be dodging my attacks, but I don't think you can be at my level for a long time... no!" He complained of the pain, "please don't!" He clutched his head desperately. Leave me alone, damn you!
"What is that?" I pointed to the body of the spirit, what I was witnessing was a bit macabre.
"I don't know, it seems he is struggling with something internal that is tormenting him" Katsuro looked surprised.
"Leave me alone!" He turned his head from side to side, the appearance of his face varied, sometimes serene and other times aggressive.
—I think he is fighting with the spirit that possesses him, I suppose that his leader is sending signals to counteract that effect, he needs to always keep him in command.
"So you say he fights against his will?" She couldn't believe that existed.
"That's right, that's what I see." Just look at how he is opposing that dominant force.
The guy's face had changed, his look this time wasn't so gloomy. You could see his serenity, so much so that he seemed like an ordinary person.
—Chosen one, another spirit will come for me soon so I need you to kill me before he comes—he came in front of me—I need to stop this torture, you have no idea how it feels to fight against your will.
"I can't do what you ask of me." I lowered my sword. He looked helpless—he could never kill someone who didn't deserve it.
"Why ?" he yelled desperately, "right now I can control my spirit, but soon the same thing will happen again, come on, do it!" You have to end my suffering, see it from that point of view.
Behind me a dark portal opened and from it came a kind of lightning straight to my head.
"Get off," he pushed me, "grabbing it with his bare hands."
—You're a damn treacherous! —another spirit appeared—our master trusted you and that's how you pay him, what a shame you are for us Kánkuro , you've shown a lot of weakness.
He immediately hit him in the face shaking him.
your name is Kánkuro ," I turned to see him.
"That's right, chosen one, now if you'll excuse me, I have to resolve this matter." He addressed the spirit that had appeared.
Giant tentacles came out of him trying to catch Kankuro , but he dodged them perfectly, apparently he had reserved his true power for another occasion. More tentacles came out of that spirit's body, one of them managed to cut part of Kánkuro 's neck making him plummet to the ground.
—That's what you get for a bastard, if only you had done your job well, none of this would be happening—he raised one of his tentacles, letting it fall with great speed towards Kankuro 's head , without a doubt it would kill him.— Here!
n't allow it!" I intervened, cutting off one of its tentacles with my sword.
monstrous spirit writhed in pain.
—Hey, it wasn't necessary for you to help me—rejoining—I could do it alone with him . You stay behind.
—I'm not doing it for you—blood dripped from my sword—I'm doing it for that damned spirit, my duty is to eliminate it once and for all.
"Now they will both die!" He took out more tentacles, this time they came in a zigzag shape, you could hear how they broke the wind. If one of them managed to hit us it would be a catastrophe.
—Chosen one, I need you to use your sword at its highest level — Kánkuro thought of something—when you do, I'll combine my attack, it's the only way out of this mess.
you sure it will work? —I frowned.—I don't see it as feasible as we say.
—We have to try—he positioned himself behind me —now !— he touched my sword
Immediately my sword took a different transformation, an intense reddish fire came out of it, and when I made my attack towards the spirit's body, a ray of fire came out, splitting it in two. The combined power was so immense that it completely disintegrated the spirit 's body thus leaving a gap in the ground.
"What happened to you just now?" I saw that you were feeling tormented by something. Could you tell me what it is that torments you so much?— I put my sword away.
—It is difficult to explain, no one has the right to dominate anyone, after I died my soul reached the underworld, I was a guy with many sins, I reached an unknown dimension, a shadow whose face did not look offered me a deal, the of being a special spirit, he told me that I would live a long time, my appearance would be like that of a human, but I would be a slave for life to him, at the time I accepted because I had no other choice, but now I regret it and I don't know how release me from this, that's why I asked you to kill me right then. I refuse to follow his orders !
—Look who we have here—a guy appeared out of nowhere with a strange suit, his hair was white and he wore it more or less on his shoulder.
—Why have you come? —Katsuro was immutable—had we agreed on something, right?
Behind him was another guy, this one didn't look like he had a high fighting level.
" Katsuro , you know me well and you know I'm on the safe side and I don't beat around the bush like you." He walked in Kankuro 's direction . It only took a few fractions of seconds when he slammed the palm of his hand into his chest killing him instantly.— Mission accomplished, we're done with this matter, it's time to go.
"Is that all?" smiled the other guy, "I thought it would be something entertaining, master. " I didn't think I would do it so quickly and without emotion.
—Hey, wait damn—I took my sword—how can you take his life like that? It was just a soul that did not want to follow the orders of its leader.
The subject turned his head towards me , as well as his heels.
—James, don't lose your head — Katsuro took my sword—do you forget that in the end it was our mission to put an end to this spirit? we had to do it the same way, sooner or later he would be possessed again by that spirit that bound him.
you even know him?" I wanted to know, pushing his arm away.
—That's right, but we have to go, I'll tell you there, it's not the time to make lawsuits over this.
Subjects vanished out of nowhere.
•
—Now you will tell me what all that happened there?— I lay down on the bed with my arms behind my neck.
—You see, the two guys you saw in that place are nothing more or nothing less than another vigilante just like me and his subject.
—What did they do? here?” I adjusted my pillow.
—I don't know, according to what he told me that he had been sent from beyond to intervene in this matter of the special spirit that had appeared, but there are certain things that don't add up to me. You need to sleep, James, today has been quite a rough day for both of us.

"James," Katrina knocked on the door quickly. "Get up, you airhead . "
"What do you want, Catherine?" This time I don't want to play—I turned on the bed.
"It's not that, your friends are downstairs honking in a van wondering if you go to college They're about five minutes into that plan. Find out how to speed up.
"Tell them I'm going by bus, I'll be there a little later ." I made myself comfortable on my bed. He was dying of sleep and was extremely tired.

"Hello, Astrid," I greeted her on the way to the classroom . Every day I looked at her prettier, that hair... those eyes... her smile...
"James, it's nice to see you again," he smiled, "today you look quite lively, by the way I really like your shirt. " He pointed to my chest, there was a band logo.
—If you want I can give it to you—I think I sounded a bit too much.
—No—he smiled—no need, I just like it the way it is—he kept walking.
Perfect, you've made an idiot of yourself, James.
The day of the university did not change, the same as always, the only thing that kept me calm was that both Mike and Astrid did not remember anything at all. At least in that we were doing well.
•
—Well, tomorrow is a day off and I need to organize the tasks for each one of you and please don't make a face at me, because you already know me and your mother—Dad was giving us cleaning instructions, the cleaning that everyone does. days off we did.
"But dad ...!" I reneged, stamping my feet.
—I said without pouting, James, or I will put more responsibilities on you. Katrana will be in charge of cooking, Katrina will go shopping at the supermarket and you , James, will have to clean the whole house.
"The whole house?" I reneged even more, "I think it's unfair to me. "
"Just for that, the yard too and you'll mow the lawn ," he sounded haughty.
"I'm leaving, you always leave me the hardest" I went to my room quickly going up the stairs.
•
"Why are you complaining, James?" If you want I can help you- Katsuro mocked.
—How funny, Katsuro —I stuck out my tongue at him— thank you that they can't see you but you also did chores.
•
MEANWHILE IN THE UNDERWORLD
-Tell me? who is it ? Is it someone you know?
—From Katsuro , the vigilante sent to earth, do you remember him ?
Did you say Katsuro ?" And what happened to him ?
—Apparently a while ago he crossed the barrier staying in the world of the living, his mission required less time and has taken longer than expected.
"Is that why you come here to interrupt me?" Please go away, I'm not interested in that. They are his things and I have nothing to do with it.
—I wouldn't be talking to you if that was all, something else is going on and we don't realize it, something very big. Find out what's up immediately, or are you going to challenge our superiors? Remember that we are governed by rules and if you break them you could even be executed, you would not be the first to go to the guillotine.
"Are you saying you want me to go there?" You're definitely crazy, go if you want.
“Solve it, fast and accurate. They are orders from beyond, do not want to play brave or do you think you can last against a Dark ?
-What did you just say?
—A Dark , just as you heard.
-You know? If so, for that reason I will do it, but in another, look for someone else who has nothing to do. It's always the same with all of you.

—I was looking for you, my chosen one, but I can't find you alone, these other vermin will also die.— the malevolent spirit had arrived. —But how scary you are—I looked at him from head to toe, he was a monster with two heads, one was bigger than the other, he had a human body, his feet were similar to the claws of a falcon and his arms were covered with hair like the fur of a wolf. "It's the spirit of fraud," Katsuro pointed out , "he remains invisible and disguises himself in the shadows, he transforms his body into that of a child , making himself look vulnerable, just at that moment he waits for someone to fall for his dirty tricks and then devours his soul.

The first day was the most boring of all, starting another week of classes was terribly stressful, it was the day and I had never adapted to this routine. Actually , I did it for my future, but since I was little I was not a lover of everything related to studies."Hello, Astrid," I smiled when I saw her, she was with her friend Mell in the hallway, this girl always stayed with her, she seemed like her escort or something. "Hello, James," he greeted with his smile that hypnotized me, "you have a face like you don't want to take classes ." Mell analyzed me from head to toe, it was uncomfortable the way she acted every time I approached them, you could tell she didn't like me.

—Who did this?— the teacher had sat on a banana making a strange noise—I asked them who did this?—he got up very annoyed that no one in the section responded.

Ragnar -from what I see our enemy is more cunning than we think, he has destroyed the punishment cell in its entirety-with me were the other Darks -this only indicates one thing, our enemy had to come up with this plan a long time ago because everyone we know that this cell was created with the material that the powers of us have no effect, since he used dynamite to make it, this is an offense, so he has certainly declared war on us.

The Volt's plan had finally been revealed to everyone. Through Kai and his unique power they would have the key that would take them to the central dimension, all because of a revenge they had to take with those who created them and rejected them at the same time.

A series of events were taking place in the cavern that Tito was controlling with his deck of cards, using dirty tricks he was creating traps to stop the passage of the vigilantes and the boys. Everyone was alert for every thing that appeared in that cavern, but Luz had discovered the secret of that power and it was the shadows that the objects reflected, these were the ones that the dolls generated through the light that their flying eyes had, but then of so many attempts that Tito made, the boys had advanced more than he thought, it made him so angry that he put away his deck and would soon make a new strategy, but in the meantime James and Jinsu had advanced to the path that led to the place where they met .
