Struggle Of Powers

[Tempest Dahlia]

"Move, you annoying rodent! You're no match for neither me or the dragon!" Destined moved closer to Josh and shoved him to the ground, then held up a blazing fist, daring him to move with his blood-colored pupils.

"Now..." he said with contempt, staring at Yaming. "We're both at high levels of energy. Now we can see who is truly stronger!" He said, charging at the dragon yet again, looking back to see if she was following suit.

[Jake the Sage]

Yaming stood still as the dragon took flight and avoided Destined's attack. Flying high above everyone the dragon roared and sent flames at Destined and Yaming.

 

feeling the heat even from his position the Professor couldn't help but slouch down and hope everything would be ok, visions of a painful battle coming back, while Koya screaming in a panic.

[-Genesis-]

 

Akima was watching the spectacle above him and ran over to Koya who had caught Kallen, "Is she okay?" He was scared that she wasn't and it was obvious on his face.

 

Kallen was unconscious, she'd replaced the energy filler just in time to reactivate her energy shield which would have protected her from the crash had Koya not caught her.

 

Cougar appeared next to Saul and Black and looked up at the fight above them, "This isn't good, this isn't good at all. I hope Kyou can do something."

 

Kyou was on the ground and moving at them fast, on her legs were Cougar's Altar Legs. He'd summoned them on her for her to use. She leapt into the air and with Cougar's Altar Legs easily got high enough and landed on the dragon's back and the Altar Legs dispersed, and she used her ice to connect herself to it so that she didn't fall off, *I want to try and bring this creature down without killing it, but those two are either gonna get in the way or try to kill each other.* She went up the creature's back until she reached the wings. She went over to the left wing and placed her hands on it and instantly it started to freeze. *Try and fly with a frozen wing, will you.*

[Jake the Sage]

Feeling it's wings freezing up the dragon flipped on its back and made a crash landing to shatter the ice, freeing itself at the same time, then stood back up. The flames melted the ice on the ground and was causing Kyou to have trouble breathing as it began to spew jets of fire over and over.

 

Koya hadn't heard Akima until he took Kallen from him. Glancing over he nodded that she'd be okay before returning his attention to the intense heat the fire had caused; this thoughts wondering if Yaming or Destined had managed to survive the inferno.

[Tempest Dahlia]

(I know, he just told me but we decided to leave it just this once. XD)

 

 

 

An array of violet flames shot from Destined's hands, overpowering the red blaze the dragon spewed and surrounding the raging beast.

 

"It seems no one has ever tought you the meaning of fear. I'll be glad to give you a lesson."

 

The fire began to close in around the dragon. Destined knew it wouldn't kill the beast, but that wasn't the plan...

 

The red energy began to grow...

[Jake the Sage]

The dragon struggled to free itself as the violet flames wrapped around it's wings and caused it too crash to the ground. Thrashing around teh dragon shot flames at random as it began to realize it couldn't free itself. As it did this Yaming's sillouette appeared as her powers began to reach their breaking point . . .

 

She floated, since her feet had long since lost contact with the ground, over towards the dragon as its fire danced around them and mixed with Destined's. A shot hit her shoulder and caused it to burn, but she either did not realize the pain or was able to ignore it, as she touched the beast's face.

Slowly closing it's eyes everyone watched amazement as the beast began to slowly lower its growl and began to calm down. Unaudiable to anyone else Yaming whispered, "Josh?"

[-Genesis-]

Test.

Akima tool Kallen from Koya and looked up at the dragon, Destined, and Yaming, "What the hell's going on?" He decided to raise a barrier of gravitational force between the three of them and everyone else. If anyone tried to cross the barrier they would be lifted into the air and tossed back the direction they came.

 

Kallen stirred a bit but not enough to wake. In her mind she was floating in nothingness, *I have to wake up, I have to help everyone!*

 

Kyou stepped back outside the battle before Akima raised the barrier and spoke to Cougar, "There seems to be some connection between Yaming and the dragon. So let's stay back and uninvolved."

 

Cougar nodded his agreement. Although he wanted to help Yaming he had a feeling that this was something she had to do on her own.

[DragonJLB]

" That's what it is....That's why we are so attracted to it, it's me!!..but how." Josh was right beside Yaming toughing the dragon. " Their's no soul, no will, other than the dragon instinks in this ...this ...dragon had come, when Yaaming power's flared." Josh was begaining to under stand why it came. "It came for you ." Josh said softly to Yaming. They both had feeling's that could never die, even by the trial's of time, life or death. " I love you so much." Josh said ghostly tear's in his eye's. Josh was tring to enbrace Yaming as he once did , but kepted going right through her body. Tear's know flowing freely from his eye's he yelled tward's the heaven's," I would give any thing to beable to hold her once more!! Let me go back to the world I was once apart of," Josh looked down , closed his eye's, and titened his fist's, then said softly" I must be their for her, I'm the only one left in our family who still travel's this world. Let me go back to her." The last part was of his rant was more of a mumble then actual word's. He opened his eye's, staring in to the Dragon's eye's!

[Jake the Sage]

As Yaming stared into the dragon's eyes as she thought she could see a small stream of tears rolling down its cheeks. She held the beast's head close to her and began to speak softly to it and make it calm down. She had long since realized that this wasn't her real Josh, having remembered that he had been killed, and the only possible explination being this was somehow a copy of him . . . a clone.

 

The sound of crackeling fire made everyone stop as Destined began to walk through the dying flames, reigniting them once more, as his knuckles popped each time he flexed his fingers. He was laughing hysterically as he stopped for a minute and looked at the dragon in front of Yaming, herself looking at him over her shoudler, but never turning around. Holding his finger's like a blade he held it to his face, the violet flames dancing off the tips, and he took a step forward as the beast growled, "Two . . . for the price of one! This must be . . . my lucky day!!!"

 

Roaring the dragon stomped in front of Yaming as Destined dashed towards them, intent on killing them both with a single strike. Yaming stood in front, her arms spread wide to defend the beast, as his hand drew near; she knew this wasn't her husband, but it was the only thing she had left to remind her of him and she would not let it be taken away so easily. As Destined's hand began to break through her skin, letting blood sputter out, the real Josh cried out in horror as her eyes opened wide and their powers converged on that single impact.

 

The light shined brightly enough to cause temporary blindness and neutralized every single power within the camp for about a minute, before it slowly returned, with the light fading. When it had completely faded from view everyone could see Josh, in a physical body, holding Yaming as Destined sat on the ground with a smug grin on his face. Yaming's chest had barely been injured and only a small pool of blood stained the shirt, not enough to cause her harm, but moreover the sight of her crying in happiness was what made people's hearts jump. She stared at Josh, never looking away, and touched his face as he smiled down at her, "It's really you . . . your back . . ."

 

"Yes," was all he replied with as he lifted her up for a passionate kiss, both long overdue and lasting over a minute, with everyone glad he had by some miracle returned. Destined staggered up, wipped the side of his mouth, and spat on the ground before getting up, "Great . . . romance . . . This is my que to get the hell out of here . . . for now . . ."

[DragonJLB]

" We're are you going" Josh said turning his attation to their attacker. He wasn't about to let this go. He looked back at Yaming, smilling all the while, and said," I've missed holding you so mutch. But I never left you, I've alway's been right beside you." Josh said as he let her go. but kept hold of her hand's. " Why is it we alway's meet like this?" Josh said smileing.

[Jake the Sage]

Yaming smiled and leaned on her husband, giving long sighs as she never wanted these moments to end, until Destined smuggly laughed. Standing straight back up she glared at him as Lucifer floated over and landed on his head once more, restricting his powers again, before tipping him at the married couple. Shivering as the hat gave a wide sharp-toothed smile at her Yaming recalled how she never liked the looks of him . . . it . . . Lucifer.

 

"I must admit," Destined said putting Lucifer back on, "I only wanted to kill the dragon. Seeing as it, techniqually gone, I see no more reason to waist my energies on you two."

 

Yaming stuck her toungue out at Destined as he walked off. Soon they were both rushed by their friends as they bombarded them with questions on how it's possible that Josh came back to life and a thousand more.

[DragonJLB]

" hay , hay back off, I'll talk to all of yall soon as I know my self, Yaming let's go some were ....quiter." Josh said grabing her hand. Josh was so happy to be back. But he had to get every one to quit crowding him, it was to mutch." WEll yall should I was still hear in spirit." Josh said with a notey grin.

[Jake the Sage]

Yaming grinned as Josh took her hand and made a break for it. Holding a small round ball in her hand she threw it down, which exploded into a thick cloud of smoke, and once it disappated they had vanished. Koya looked around and then sighed when he couldn't even sense their energies anymore, "We lost them guys . . ."

 

Far away from everyone else Josh and Yaming stood, trying to catch their breath, and tried not to laugh. A quick glance at each other was enough to break their restraint and both began to laugh at their strange situation. Each looked into the other's eyes and knew someone had granted their mutual wish.

[DragonJLB]

Josh and her laughed for a long time. But all to soon it faded away as Josh looked long and deep in to her eye's.Josh was so happy to be back, he hated to say what was on both their mind's" Well I don't know how or why, but when I died.., my soul stayed here and didn't move on.." Josh stopped as he recalled the short and breif pain he felt, then continued.." I followed in spirit, with you all...." Josh started laughing as remembered it all. " It was horrable, not being able to talk to any one or be notcied." Josh's face grew sad, I almost couldn't stand it. Josh then smiled again, then said." And know I have a new, stronger body. Some one like's me some where.." Josh said growing quite again, listening to his own heart beat. He open his eye's , looked at Yaming, then leadned in to steal a kiss from his love that he longed for, for so long.

[-Genesis-]

Now that Akima had gotten over the shock of seeing Josh again he carried Kallen over to what was left of the little campsite that he'd been talking to Kallen and Koya at not long ago. He laid her down gently, rekindled the fire and then realized that the little campsite was completely flat now as it was inside a giant dragon footprint, "Wow, hey Koya! You coming back?" He continued to try and clear some of the debris.

 

Kyou turned and walked over to Professor Bill, "I guess that our meeting is over, and that I have rested my case, or do you have another explanation to offer?" She continued walking until she was a bit past him, "Also in the future, whether it is actually me or not, do not touch my throat." With that she continued walking with Cougar just behind her.

[Jake the Sage]

Koya had been watching were Josh and Yaming were when Akima called to him. He turned around, nodded his head, and headed towards them. Sitting in front of the fire he warmed his hands and glanced at Kallen and Akima, "How do you think this is possible? Having Josh come back?"

 

"Does it matter? From what I've seen he makes that one girl very happy," said one of the women that had came back with Titanium. She was ridding a giant yellow wolf-like thing with black lightning style strips. It sniffed the three as she smiled at them, the other two heading their way.

 

Kyou turned and walked over to Professor Bill, "I guess that our meeting is over, and that I have rested my case, or do you have another explanation to offer?"

 

The Professor had no answer for her as she continued walking until she was a bit past him, "Also in the future, whether it is actually me or not, do not touch my throat."

 

With that she continued walking with Cougar just behind her. The Professor turned around and told her to stop and then finished, "I know what I've seen with my eyes. The Western Legendary is dead. Yet somehow . . . someone seems to have revived her- like the man she ran off with."

 

Both Yaming and Josh laughed for a long time as they stood in frotn of each other, but it slowly faded away as Josh looked into her eyes. He was so happy to be back and placed his arms around her as she sighed, "What . . . What was it like?"

 

"It was horrable . . . not being able to talk to anyone or be noticed," Josh laughed and then leaned his head on her, "I almost couldn't stand it."

 

Josh then smiled again and mentioned his newer, stronger body, and how someone must've been looking out for him. Yaming traced the muscles underneath his shirt and could indeed notice that he was twice as muscular as he was before he died, but didn't mind the extra build. Josh grew quite again, listening to his own heart beat, then opened his eyes and looked at Yaming. She blushed and looked away when their eyes meet and he lifted her chin to look move her eyes back to his. He leaned in to kiss the wife that he had missed for a long . . . long time. As he did Yaming pushed herself off of him and glanced away, "I . . . I can't. At least not right now . . . give me some time to get used to this, please?"

 

[Blake]

Black resisted the urge to drop his jaw as he stared at Josh, not believeing his eyes. Black thought. He kept his gaze on Josh, unwavering, and unable to think straight. He sat down, legs croseed, and just stared. He thought. He actually smacked his own face once to make sure he was entirely sane.

 

Saul was lost. He had no idea what was going on, but he did keep himself composed. Well, as well as he could.

[-Genesis-]

Akima smiled back at Koya, "I kinda agree with that woman, does it really matter. I mean he's only been here for a matter of minutes and you saw how happy Yaming was." Without meaning to he flashed a concerned glance at Kallen's unconscious form.

 

Kyou nodded at the Professor's words, "Well let's save finding the reason for another time, and let them soak up their small bit of peace." She continued walking and then turned to Cougar, "Do you know where Eden is?" He shook his head, "I'm sorry I don't, but if you wish I can find him." He looked at her with a knowing glance and before she responded he was gone.

[Freeman The Master]

As all of this seemingly was happening a battle with a Dragon, Josh coming back to life and two loves reuniting. But as all of the fun stuff and more exciting stuff was going on once again Eden was no where to be seen let alone Lee. As for where he was and where hes been was well some what odd for him. As Eden started to wake up his eyes he started to blink rapidly to get up him self up. But what he found was mostly darkness and on a bed. He started to get up form this old tired out bed that he found him self in. But as he finally woke up he saw more beds but hardly anybody else. Eden just surged it off and started to find away out of where ever he is.

[Jake the Sage]

While the battle with the dragon, Josh coming back to life and the two lovers being reuniting was going on Eden and Lee were no where to be seen; but so far no one had noticed due to the amazing revilations. The Professor turned around and told her to stop, "I know what I've seen with my eyes. The Western Legendary is dead. Yet somehow . . . someone seems to have revived her- like the man she ran off with."

 

"Well let's save finding the reason for another time and let them soak up their small bit of peace," Kyou continued walking and then turned to Cougar, "Do you know where Eden is?"

 

He shook his head, "I'm sorry I don't, but if you wish I can find him."

 

He looked at her with a knowing glance and before she responded he was gone. As for where Eden was and where he's been . . . well . . .where ever it was it was mostly dark and he was on a bed. He started to get up from, but when he got up he saw more beds but hardly anybody else. Eden just shrugged it off and started to find away out of where ever he is. As he walked someone spotted him and he soon heard a man's voice telling him he shoudln't be moving and then heard footsteps coming towards him.

 

As the haze lifted from his mind he could see Corey and someone else coming over to him. The other man wore a black tuxedo and carried a sword, though he couldn't tell what kind, and they both urged him to sit back down.

 

"You aren't well enough to move Eden. Do you want to end up like him?" Corey motioned to Ichiro who had been knocked out by the dragon's tail. Walking over the tuxedo man waved his hand over Ichiro's eyes and he quickly stood back up.

 

"Ready to calm down? Or am I going to have to sedate you again?"

 

"I kinda agree with that woman, does it really matter. I mean he's only been here for a matter of minutes and you saw how happy Yaming was," Akima smiled back at Koya; but then, Without meaning to, he flashed a concerned glance at Kallen's unconscious form.

 

The women who had been ridding the giant yellow wolf-like was right beside them now and the beast was sniffing at Kallen. Titanium and the other women about to arrive, "Is she ok?"

 

Black resisted the urge to drop his jaw as he stared at Josh, not believeing his eyes, "I'm going mad!" He kept his gaze on Josh, unwavering, and unable to think straight as he returned with Yaming hanging on his arm. He sat down, legs croseed, and just stared, "Odd . . ."

 

He actually smacked his own face once to make sure he was entirely sane. The same as John, Saul was also lost, and had no idea what was going on but he did keep himself composed; well . . . as well as he could. "Who is this? And where did he come from?" Saul thought as he also stared. He had appeared so suddenly and Saul had not even seen him come in. Noticing Black and Saul staring Yaming tugged on Josh's arms and walked over to them.

 

"Black? Saul?" she began with a smile, "I'd like you both to meet my husband- Josh."

[Blake]

Black laughed loud. "I know him. Remember? I rescued you right before he was killed." BLack grinned. HE extended his hand to Josh in a gesture. "Welcome back to the land of the living." He said with a chuckle. "So what are you going to do first?". He chuckled at himself, liking his joke.

 

Saul cut in. "You rescued her? Huh... hard to believe... And cut the vulgar jokes John..." He mumbled, then turned to Josh, and also extended his hand. "I am Saul." He said deadpan. "You're a lucky man." He said, with even less emotion, if it was possible. HE let a small grin tug at his chin, and saw Black cast him a glance.

[Kira Magister Magi]

Still groggy, Ichiro had a hard time grasping where he was. His vision was blurry and he could barely see in front of him when he stood up. Looking around him he stumbled over his own two feet as his balance and other senses slowly returned to him. Glancing at Corey he asked in a sleepy tone, "Where'd the girls go?"

[Aqua Girl]

Vera Awoke to a soft smack on her face, she fluttered her eyes open There she saw her daughter, Vera's yellow eyes flushed with tears as she embraced her daughter, "Alexandria!" She said happily, Suddenly she remembered the Events of yesterday, she charged the camp Knowing her daughter was here she put up a great fight but there was too many she was eventualy knocked out.

 

Vera looked at her suroundings She was in a Cage with many other people who looked like slaves, her clothes were torn and raged she looked just like them, She saw a guard walking by She jumped at him but he backed away she tryed to absorb his energy but couldent, she began to chew at the cage like an animal, the guard laughed and walked away.

 

"Heh The cage has some way of Caneling out powers, but Only from the inside out But not the inside in?" A man In a Cloak Says, With a smile.

"It seams they made a mistake puting you in with us Hehehe!"
