Title: The Cross Bandits
Description: Plenteous Geothermal Fort Walls


Matsuei - July 3, 2003 05:19 AM (GMT)
Zain decided to go on a quest. His duel was over and he needed more levels and rare items. He logged on into "The World"

----------------------

Matsuei arrived at Mac Anu, the golden rings disolving around him. He walked to the bridge and looked out at all the other players. Terror would arrive soon so they could both go on a quest together, now that they were both at the same level. "We're going to Plenteous Geothermal Fort Walls" was the flash mail he sent to Terror. Now all he had to do was wait.

Terror - July 3, 2003 05:26 AM (GMT)
*Terror had just completed the Tournament and he was exhausted....He recieved a flash mail from Zain. Terror read it and yawned quite a bit.*

"Mac Anu..To go to a quest..." *Terror warped into the Delta Town Root Server. Golden rings usrrouned him in a gleaming light. Terror yawned a bit more and he arrived at Mac Anu. He looked around to see Zain standing there.*

"Zain..."

*Terror ran/walked towards Zain, yawning a bit more.*

"Tired?"

"Yeah alittle bit..Well where are we gonna go today?"

"Plenteous Geothermal Fort Walls..Didn't you read..? -.-"

"I skimmed...Wait..No..Not really.."

"....."

*Terror laughed a bit and began walking towards the Chaos Gates. Zain was already ahead of him. Terror followed him and the two entered the key words, "Plenteous Geothermal Fort Walls". Both were instantly warped to the field. Zain was the first to see the field, Terror came seconds later.*

"So this is the field eh...,"Terror said with a mumble.

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 05:34 AM (GMT)
They both walked a bit. Matsuei popped his neck as Terror stretched and yawned. "You know, you should really read flash mail instead of skim through it. You coulda missed out on important information ya know." Terror just yawned in responce. Matsuei shrugged as they walked on.

"So what's up lately?" Terror didn't answer, his eyes half closed. Matsuei smacked him in the back of his head. "Wake up! We're on a quest if you didn't notice." Terror rubbed the back of his head. "Itai...itami..." They soon arrived to a monster portal. They drew their swords and approached it as it activated.

Terror - July 3, 2003 05:48 AM (GMT)
*Terror was falling a little asleep again but he shook himself out of it. Can't sleep...Do dungeon first...The sleep... Terror took his bloody Slayer and awaited what came out. Zain and Terror stood in there fighting stances, Terror wa sin an offensive postion while Zain was in a attackive postion. The monsters that came out of the portal was a large enormus Rock Head. Terror stared at the fat a--ed monster and just stared.*

"Terror quit starin! We have to kill it..."

"But its so fat..."

*Zain shook his head and went stright towards the Rock Head and slashing at it from the Rock Head's chin. Terror ran up as well after a few minutes of cracking up insanely. Terror took his Slayer and went for the right cheek of the Rock Head. Thats when the Rock Head started to act up. The slashes got is mad. It spinned its rocks around hurling Terror and Matsuei a feet away. Terror got up brushing himself off. Zain on the other hand got up and went to strike at the Rock Head's back.*

"Its no us ehes too fat!!" *Terror took his blade and stabbed into the Rock Head's eye and it roared loudly. It started to spin its rocks wildly, goind faster and faster. Zain yelled at Terror.* "Now you done it!!" *Terror stabbed the sword deeper in the eye hoping for blood. Zain decided to help as well. He jumped up and stabbed his sword in the left eye. The Rock Head dropped onto the ground heavily. Zain drew his sword out and so did Terror. The Rock Head turned black and Terror slashed at it with his sword and it bursted into large amounts of data. Terror looked around for the dungeon and so did Zain. but they did not see it. It was so barren and dark it was hard to see almost anything.*

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 06:01 AM (GMT)
The two bladers continued on their journey. They soon began to see a lot more glowing portals. "Aww...darn it!!" was all Terror said, "How can we avoid so many?!" Matsuei shrugged. He then started to run toward one of the portals. 3 portals activated. Matsuei took his attacking stance as did Terror. "You just had to activate them didn't you." Matsuei only smirked and nodded.

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 07:37 PM (GMT)
Two Head Hunters and a Sword of Chaos appeared. Matsuei ran for the sword of chaos. He jumped up and slashed down at it. The sword and shield both fell. Terror ran for the sword of chaos as well and did an upward slash on it. The head hunters we're getting close to them. To finish off the sword of chaos, Matsuei cast Rai Rom. It shattered into data. They both turned to the head hunters now. They both took one of their own. Matsuei jumped up and landed on the shoulder of his head hunter. He then back flipped off and cut down on the monster. It yelpped in pain as Matsuei reached the ground and hopped back. He saw Terror blocking, dodging, and attacking his hunter. Matsuei jumped out of the way just as the hunter brought its sword down, the ground crumbling beneath. "Interesting..." Matsuei jumped up again and diagonally slashed it numerous times. It tried to block but couldn't block all the strikes, due to the way it connected. It fell back and disappeared.

mean while....
-------------------

Terror easily blocked and dodged the sluggish beast. "You don't deserve to live." he smirked. "Players control your fate!" He then laughed menacingly. He attacked then dodged. The hunter slashed down on Terror. He easily dodged everyone of the attacks. "Your death begins now!!" He slashed at the hunter. It tried to block but was unsuccesful. Terror jumped up and landed on the shoulders just as Matsuei had done. He then dug his sword into the head of the hunter. Then he jumped up again, right into the sun's glare. The hunter was blinded for a moment. Terror brought his sword down. "Death Bringer!!" The Slayer split the hunter in half. It broke into data.
---------------------

They both walked on from the little skirmish. "Too easy..." Terror just yawned. Matsuei shook his head as they neared the dungeon.

Terror - July 3, 2003 08:30 PM (GMT)
*Terror looked around queitly. Thinking he saw the dungeon, but really it was a statue of some sort of object. Terror ran towards the object and Zain followed not knowing where Terror was going too. Terror stopped to see that it was only a statue. But in Terror's fault a portal stood there rotating ins golden light. Since Terror appoached it so suddenly it oppened up. Out came 3 Rock Heads. Terror straed at the giant heads and so did Zain. Terror did not know if the part of 2 Heavy Bladers could handle this kind of force and power. Zain only smirked and stood in his attackive postion while Terror did the the defensive. Terror knew that Zain and him could wipe out these monsters. Terror grinned as one of the Rock Head's appoached Terror. Zain went off to fight the Rock Head not waiting. Terror used his sword to block all of the Rock Head's rock spins. Zain on the other hand was doing many uppercuts and vertical slashes on the Rock Head behind Terror's Rock Head. The other Rock Head tryed to get in the fight but the 2nd Rock Head blocked the way. Terror found a opening to strike when the rock head stopped. He took his blade and striked right at its face over and over but in different places. The Rock Head was so large it could not envade it. Also it was too slow to dodge. Zain began to block agaist the Rock Head when it began to start to spin its rocks around. Terror took his blad eand wondered if what happened to the first Rock Head if he took his blade and shoved it into his eye. Terror jumped and stabbed his blade into the Rock Head's eye. Zain jumped up to dodge and did the same. Then both drew out there swords and used "DEATH BRINGER!". The Rock Heads fell into black version of them selves and bursted into data. The other Rock head now appoached. Terror and Zain striked at the oppisite sides of the Rock Head. The Rock Head began to spin small rocks.*

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 09:40 PM (GMT)
Matsuei and Terror jumped up. They landed on opposite sides of rocks that the rock head had. It started to spin them rapidly. Both Terror and Matsuei dug their swords into the rocks. They held on tight as the rocks spun around. Seeing nothing had happened, the rock head stopped. Both players nodded. The took out their swords and leapt to the head. "Death Bringer!!" they both shouted. Matsuei slashed at the face while Terror slashed at the back. They then landed on the ground. The head burst and disappeared into data. "Let's get going." Both bladers got up and walked on.

Terror - July 3, 2003 09:48 PM (GMT)
"Why is the dungeon so far...Zain..."

"I don't know.."

*The party walked on and on for a hour, they had dodged past every portal on the field. They wanted tos ave there energy for the battles in the dungeon. They had walked north on the barren dry land for awhile now. Until Zain saw the dungeon east from where they were standing.*

"I see it! Over there!"

*Terror nod's and follows Zain. Zain was running towards the dungeon as quickly as he could with Terror following behind. They reached the dungeon and saw that a Head Hunter and Rock Head awaited them. Terror was read and so was Zain. Both of the Heavy Bladers dashed into battle. Terror decided to fight the Rock Head while Zain take care of the Head Hunter. Zain slashed at the head hunter at its should in the air. He was aiming for his head. Terror on the other hand just slashed at the Rock Head ingoring the spinning rocks. Their battles raged on and on. Terror switched to another style. He casted "DEATH BRINGER!" on the Rock Head twice to see it fall before him. Terror did not watch the Rock Head fall he was running to help Zain. But Zain had it all under control. He dodged all the Head hunter's attacks then he took his sword and shoved it into its chest. The Head Hunter bursted into data. Terror was low on HP, so Zain casted Repth on Terror. They stood queitly as the wind blew caring dust. Terror looked at the dungeon and so did Zain. They both nodded...and entered.*

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 09:58 PM (GMT)
They entered the first room. It had spikes coming out of the walls near the ceiling. It also had lighting. The shadows were large....very large. Even the players shadows were large. Terror smirked but Matsuei felt a bit uneasy. He shrugged as they both entered the next room.

Terror - July 3, 2003 10:07 PM (GMT)
*The next room was empty and plain, the room was like a rocky cavern. and stoof in the center was a portal. It opened up and and 3 Swords of Chaos appeared. The 3 Swords didn't split up but stayed in a group. They were blocking the path to the north corridor. Terror drew his Slayer and so did Zain. Both dashed to the left and right Swords of Chaos and slashed at it. Terror did a few verital slashes. While Zain did a right diagonal slash. Both the swords fell with in seconds. Zain and Terror's power were over whelming. The other Sword tryed to escape but Terror and Zain did a X like strike on it. Terror took the left \ while Zain took the / making a X. Then Zain finishe dit off with a "Death Bringer!". Terror walked into the next room with Matsuei following. The next room was also a rocky cavern like room but it was a fork.*

"So what now Zain..."

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 10:23 PM (GMT)
"I don't know Terror, why ya asking me?!" Terror just shrugged. The decided to take the left fork. They entered a room with more spikes. The shadows seemed to move. Then the shadows did move. Something seemed to crawl on the ground. "Heh heh heh...see if you can catch us..." The words echoed off the walls as shadows of all types moved across the floor. Then they stopped and came into the center. All the shadows fused together. It then came out of the floor. When it looked up, Matsuei and Terror become freaked out. The face was nothing but black expressionless and had deep red eyes. All of a sudden, it smiled a large smile. White teeth and deep red eyes was now on the face of the shadow. "Hee hee hee....now defeat me....hee hee heee.....and pass the test." Matsuei and Terror drew their swords. The shadow took the form of a clown, but all shadowy like. Both Matsuei and Terror really freaked seeing as they both were afraid of clowns. Then Matsuei smirked. "Hey Terror....now's the time to get revenge...." Terror also smirked and nodded. The shadow clown frowned. It then smiled again and snickered.

Terror - July 3, 2003 10:31 PM (GMT)
*Terror took his swor dand ran stright towards the blasted clown but he jmuped over Terror and dodged.*

"HAHAHAHA! YOU CAN'T HIT ME!"

*Terror was enraged and tryed again and missed, Zain tryed to attack too but he missed. The party of Heavy Blader's were having trouble striking this shadow clown down. Everytime they attacked vertically he seemed to have dodged it by jumping over them. The clown was super bouncy. Zain used "DEATH BRINGER!" ont he clown and he was stuck by the skill. When he was he fell to the ground and Terror stood there with his sword ready. He smirked and stabbed the clown in the chest with his Slayer. The clown yelled and bursted into Data. His last words were, "You have passed!".*

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 10:40 PM (GMT)
Matsuei and Terror recovered from the crazy battle. "Terror....that was messed..." Terror nodded as they both exited and went back and went to the right room. It was a small room with nothing in it. The whole ceiling was coated in darkness. The black nothing dripped off the ceiling. It fell down. The ooze took shape and became goblins. "This dungeon is just messed..." Matsuei slashed at the goblins as did Terror. Soon all the goblin were gone. The shadows in the room again started to move. The climbed to the ceiling and formed a symbol before disappeareing. "You'll never get passed us...." Matsuei and Terror causously looked around, ready for anything. They saw it was over and continued.

Terror - July 3, 2003 10:46 PM (GMT)
*Terror looked at the symbol but it faded before he could do a thing. The warrior walked towards the next corridor witch was north. Inside was a large room that only turned east. But a portal stood in their way. Potal opened up and a Rock Head appeared. Both Zain and Terror began to slash at the Rock head with their Slayers. They had forgot about the clown and goblina nd were focused on the Rock Head. Zain stabbed his Slater into the Rock Head's eye. It began to spin its rocks around wildly. But Terror took his Slayer and casted "DEATH BRINGER!" to finish off the Rock Head. It fell and bursted into large bit sof data. Terror looked around and decided to go to the east corridor. The warrirors entered the darkness to see...*

Matsuei - July 3, 2003 10:59 PM (GMT)
They saw the staircase that led down. Torches also were on each side the doorway. The shadows they produced were great. Both Matsuei and Terror looked around with shifty eyes. Matsuei and Terror got tired and went down into the next room. They entered a room complete in darkness. Only a small path and the door could be seen. The shadows were slowly but quickly devouring the path. Matsuei and Terror quickly ran to the next room, carefully avoiding the shadows. They entered a large room. It was covered in slime. The ground had gloops of slime as the ceiling dripped. The walls were covered as well. "Disgusting..." Matsuei and Terror walked around, avoiding the slime. They saw the door to the next room but it was blocked by a monster portal. Both Matsuei and Terror drew their Slayers as They approached.

Terror - July 4, 2003 03:03 PM (GMT)
*When they appoached the golden portal. 2 Rock Heads appeared. Both Zain and Terror slashed at thier oposing monsters with fury and great strength. They did not have to worry about missing for the Rock Heads were to large to miss an attack. Zain did many straight forward blows while Terror did alot of X and \_ slashes. Zain gave Terror a signal with his eyes to do Death Bringer to finish off the Rock Heads. Terror nodded, he jumped up and used his skill "DEATH BRINGER!". Instantly the Rock head fell by the tremendous overwelming attack. Zain jumped up and used his skill right after, "DEATH BRINGER!". Right then and there the rock head fell. Terror slashed at his, once more to see it burst into data. Zain did the same, and the same results happened like Terror's. Zain rushed into the corridor and Terror followed quietly. It was a dark room like no other. only a few torches led the way. But this place only had one corridor witch was west. But no one could see it from where they were.*

Terror - July 4, 2003 03:24 PM (GMT)
*Zain and Terror walked in circles wasting minutes trying to find the door in the almost pitch black room. They said nothing at all, silence only filled the room. Terroror felt like he was going to explode from the minutes being wasted. The door bleded in with the black, for the entrance was dark. Terror moved his hands around the wall until suddely he fell onto the stairs. Matsuei looked around to hear the noise. Terror made a moaning sound, Matsuei followed it and walked up the stairs. He had accidetly walked on Terror's back in the process.*

"ITAI!!!!!!"

"Uh...Sorry?"

"...."

*Terror kept silent and his back in so much pain. But before the part left, Zain casted repth on both of them so they could be at tip top shape. Zain led thr way to the 3rd floor. As they walked down the steps, they came across even more darkness. But the exit was lit with torches. Terror led the way this time with Zain behind him.*

Matsuei - July 4, 2003 11:15 PM (GMT)
Matsuei ran ahead of Terror. They came to a room with 2 torches at the next room's entrance. The shadows continued to move, always moving. Always following. Matsuai and Terror paid no attention to them. They walked on into the next room. It smelled of rotting flesh. The ground was squishy, and leaked a strange liquid where they stepped. The walls seemed to be made of the remains of dead monsters. "This place is messed up." Matsuei shrugged. "Just a walk in the park, if you ask me." Terror shook his head as they walked on into the next room. The smell grew greater. Matsuei and Terror had to hold their noses and breath out of their mouths. The room was dark, like the others. "Catch us, catch us, catch us..." was heard in this room. All of a sudden, a little child's laugh was heard, continuously laughing. "This place is freaky." Matsuei shrugged. "Just like a stupid horror movie." Terror shuddered at the idea of his own dead body. They contiued on. It was a very large room. Monsters were everywhere. A head hunter was at the back near the door. Matsuei and Terror hid behind some broken shells and things. "Were going to have a hard time here." Terror just nodded in agreement.

Matsuei - July 4, 2003 11:34 PM (GMT)
(Conversation of the century)

"So, what's our first priority Zain?"

"Well we need to kill all these monsters."

"I knew that, but it's like a con man. But with monsters!! I mean look over there, those goblins look like cosplayers. And that sword of chaos is being surrounded by other smaller goblins, as if giving autographs. And the Head hunter, it's like the mob boss of it all."

"Yeah it is. The "big" guy. The guy on top. "The big cheese."

Cheese? Where?! I want some cheese, specialy if it's big!"

"Terror, I meant that the head hunter is in charge. And those rock heads must be its body guards or something."

"So Zain, how are we gonna get this party started. Just bust in there and bust some caps or what?"

"Terror, your not black and we don't have any guns. Anyway, we need to start by kick'n all of there monster butts and getting to the next room. The problem is how."

Terror nodded."Other players can't blame us if there's no desert left. Lets just do a cross pattern run and slash whatever's in our range."

Matsuei thought about this for a second, before agreeing. "Okay lets do this."

"Oh yeah, let's get this party started!"

Terror - July 5, 2003 12:08 AM (GMT)
*Terror jumps out and heads right, Zain did the same but went left. They were going to do a criss cross like manuever, that was very hard to pull off. There were 5 Goblins each in a staight line. The Sword of Chaos was in the middle, the Head Hunter behind and the two Rock Heads next to him. Terror and quickly as Zain did they slashed at the Goblins one by oe they fell within one sword blow. The Goblins made crys of death. In seconds the Goblins fell and bursted into pieces of data. Zain and Terror came across the Rock Heads blocking the way to the Head Hunter and Sword of Chaos. Terror slashed at the Rock head and so did Zain. But after a few diagonal sword strokes they began to change their movements in attack. Terror had stopped slashed and tryed to lure the Rock Head away. While Zain was dodging the spinning rocks, when they stopped Zain slashed at the Rock Head in various ways. (EX: A few of the slashes are X, |, ----,7-, and (. I can't explain the slashes well.) Terror got the Rock Head into the center of the room. He blocked most of the Rock Head's hits and then slashed at its face vertically. The he did a few crescent shaped slashed repeatly. The Rock Head began to spins its rocks but Terror kumped up and stabbed his sword right in the head of the Rock Head. It twisted and turned until it was finally defeated. The Head Hunter and Sword of Chaos moved towards the right corner. Zain took his blade and gripped it tightly. He used his skill "DEATH BRINGER!!!". Right away the Rock Head Fell. Terror dashed jumped over the bursting data and so did Zain. The Rock head's were deafeated and now the Sword of Chaos and Head Hunter was next.*

"Zain you take the Sword of Chaos! Head Hunters mine!"

*Zain nods and jumped into the and spinned around in mid airs while he spinning he managed to slash at the Sword of Chaos. Terror jumped up and tryed to do a straight forward mid air slash but the Head Hunter blocked the attack with his sword. Terror jumped back and tryed to do another but he was striked back with the Head Hunter's Sword. Zain slashed at the Sword of Chaos left and right. Zain was able to strike quickly and easyily.*

Matsuei - July 5, 2003 12:18 AM (GMT)
Matsuei hacked away at the sword of chaos. He jumped, raising his sword above his head. He then slashed vertically downwards. The sword and shield seperated before bursting into data.

Terror was almost done with his hunter. He smirked as he jumped up and landed behind it. He then slid under it as it turned around. It didn't know where he was. Terror slashed at the hunter. He then landed on the back of the hunter after he slashed it. He cast Death Bringer to finally bring it down. It shattered into data.

Matsuei and Terror nodded at each other before continuing on to the next room.

Terror - July 5, 2003 12:27 AM (GMT)
*Zainw as the first to enter the next corridor with Terror behind. The next room was empty with not a single thing in. It was yet again a fork. Terror looked at the wo path and waited quietly. He looked around the earthen cavern. 2 large torches lit up this cavern. Terror was awaiting for Zain to choose.*

"What..?"

"Choose."

"..Why me again!?"

"....Just choose...!"

"Fine fine..."

*Zain stood queitly wondering witch path to go to. He knew he must choose a path before Terror bursted of impateince. Terror wanted to leave this room as soon as possible but he needed Zain to choose the path for he was too lazy to fry his mind over the fork. He didn't wan't to put his mind to a fork. It wasn't really worth it.*

Terror - July 5, 2003 12:44 AM (GMT)
"Alright, Were going left..."

"Right. Thats where were going."

"Bu..."

"..No."

*Terror walks toward the right path with Zain following, wondering why Terror took the right path and not left? Why did he even ask him? As they entered the darkness they cam across another empty room that led to the north or to the east. This was yet another fork like area. This place was more rocky and hard and had many little torches all over the place. Large rock like spikes stood above them so they were carful not to make any noise. Terror went towards the east and Matsuei followed. They now were in one narrow hall wall. They went down to come across the Steps to the 4th floor. Terror ran down the step and so did Zain following along. As they went down the steps they came across another dark room. This room took a west turn. Zain entered it before Terror could and inside was a large circle like room that went 3 paths. North, South, and East. It had a hole in the middle and torches were everywhere burning brightly. The hole was pure black and a never ending abyss. Terror stopped and finally spoke once again after the silence.*

"Now you choose the path Zain.."

Matsuei - July 5, 2003 12:56 AM (GMT)
"Uhh...how about we go to the north path." Terror shrugged and followed Zain as they walked north, trying to avoid the hole. All of a sudden, the dungeon shook. Childish laughs were heard. The shaking became stronger and more fierce. The ground begand to crumble, making the hole become larger. Both Matsuei and Terror fell into the dark abyss.

After so many minutes, they woke up. They were a bit shaken up but luckily weren't harmed much. "Man, I have a killer headache." The used their Slayers to help prop themselves up. Matsuei cast repth on both of them. Soon their HP was at full again. "Let's get going." Terror nodded. They entered a very large room.

It had torched all around the room. It was circular so the center was dark. Both Matsuei and Terror walked in, their shadows becoming long and distorted. All of a sudden they heard the same voice as before. "Catch us if you can. Defeat us if you may. But remember, Your data will be ours." Then the voices laughed insanely.

Terror - July 5, 2003 01:11 AM (GMT)
*Terror looked around the area. Hit shadow was starting to take form. Terror was moving back shocked that a thing was begining to take form. Terror ingorned Zain and his mind was too much on the shadow than Zain. The Shadow took awhile to form but, it became a exact Terror look alike but it was pure black. It wore a black cloak, so this thing looked different. This clone had red eyes and a evil smile that could scare the hell out of 100 children. This clone stood queitly and a shadow katanna began to form in his hands. He stood queitly and stared at Terror. Looking at this clone remined him of the Mad Grass clones Xander made to fight Terror. But this clone looked different. He looked like a Shadow Link but looked like Terror.*

"What the hell are you...?"

"I am you Terror. I am your shadow given form." *Shadow Terror grinned evily.*

Matsuei - July 5, 2003 01:25 AM (GMT)
Matsuei looked over at the shadow Terror. "Hey Terror, you notice anything similar about its face?" Terror only barely nodded. "It....it...it has...the same twisted smile that clown had." Matsuei nodded. Matsuei then looked at his shadow. A black blob came out of his shadow. It started to take form. "Oh crap." The blob had taken Matsuei's form. A large sword started to form. It was a Slayer just like his own. The dark red crimson eyes began to glow as the evil grin formed as well. The shadow started to chuckle. "Hee hee hee.....so you found us. No matter, we'll still defeat you...Hee hee!" Matsuei and Terror took their stances. To their surprise, the shadows did the same stances. "Hee hee hee....let it begin."

Terror - July 5, 2003 05:08 AM (GMT)
*Terror blinked and stood there queitly waiting for hit opponent to strike. But to his supprise Shadow Terror did not move at all. He waitied in the same stance. But only held his sword with one hand. Terror waited again until Shadow Terror spoke up.*

"Yes Terror. I am a few things you wished you had..A dark cloak and a katanna!! Hah Hah Hah...You will fall and your data code will be mine. I am known as Faded...."

"..Shut up...I don't want to hear your sh--!!!"

"Touchy...Touchy...Very well.."

*Terror moved in a circle and Faded did the same. Terror didn't understand, why is Faded mimicing him. Unless Faded is following his every movement.....Terror tryed to think of how his own shadow could take form....This puzzeled him alot when he tryed to think. Terror just could not understand..He kept moving a circle and so did Faded. Faded simirked evily, his crimson bloody red eyes gleamed in the darkness. Faded was not going to strike at all. He would only attack when Terror would other wise they would stay in a circle until Terror made a move. Faded's mind was only full of death and Terror's data becoming his. Thats what he was after, it was what he WANTED. Nothing would stop Faded. Terror kept moving in his circle. Silence filled the battlefield.*

Matsuei - July 5, 2003 06:58 PM (GMT)
Matsuei stood there, poised to attack this fiend. Matsuei dashed at the shadow. It moved the same way he did. Matsuei tried to do a vertical slash. The shadow did the same. The blades hit in the exact spots. The force of the hit knocked them both back. "How...how did you know?!" The shadow only laughed, its red eyes beaming. Matsuei got up. The shadow did the same. "What....are you?"

"I am you. You are me. We are one."

"No....that's impossible! What is your name?!"

"I use the name Eclipse. As for you, you are Za...I mean Matsuei."

"You even know my real name?!"

The shadow laughed insanly. Matsuei only shook his head. He dashed to his right. The shadow dashed to the left. Matsuei jumped up as did Eclipse. Matsuei tried to do a horizantal slash at Eclipse. It only did the same. The strike made both of them fall back. Matsuei got up again. He ran toward Eclipse. Eclipse did the same thing again. Matsuei thrust his sword at Eclipse. Eclipse jumped up and landed on Matsuei's blade. Matsuei couldn't withdraw his arm, he couldn't even move his arm for that matter. Eclipse smiled. It then smacked him in the face and flipped of his blade. Matsuei shook off the hit. "What the..." Matsuei had an idea. He didn't know if it would work but he had to try it. "Rai Rom!!" The tornado formed at the tip of Matsuei's blade. Eclipse was in the same position but nothing formed. Matsuei pointed his sword at Eclipse. The tornado hit him, the electricity creating a bit of light and hurting him more. When the attack was done, smoke arose from Eclipse. It wasn't smiling anymore. It was frowning, and looking angrier by the second.

Terror - July 5, 2003 10:11 PM (GMT)
"Come Terror, Come to me..."

*Faded's voice like his own but darker and evil. Terror was walking towards Faded without his own self knowing. Faded grinned, as Terror came closer to him he grinned. Faded was one with Terror. But Faded did not know Terror was only playing along. He had no power at all. This would allow him to strike him while he was off balance. Terror was only 5 inches away from from Faded. Faded smiled evilly. Terror smirked and Faded was confused. He had a very cinfused expression.*

"Surpise.."

*Terror took his slayer and striked Faded right side of his rib cage. He striked tirght in the right center. Faded's eyes widened at the pain. He coughed cough some sort of black like ink. His face showed pain and agony. Terror drove the Slayer deeper into the rip cage. He was going to cut off his waist. Making him legless. Faded coughed more and the blade was being stained. Terror enjoyed looking at Faded's pain. Faded tryed to speak but he could not. The blade was going in deeper and deeper. It wasn't large enough to cut his body off from his legs but it was getting close.*

"Die...Yes Faded...I am telling you to die...I will kill you..."

*Faded's eyes widened even more. This pain was getting to much for him. He could not beilive he was tricked by Terror. How could he a better version of Terror lose to him? Was he truly weak? Was it that he craved for Terror's data? Something was about to unfold....Faded shook his head and said, "No!"*

"I won't let you finish me off."

*Faded got up and and slashed Terror back with his katanna. Faded put his hand on his darkened wound. He was in much pain. He could not fight back holding his wound, even if he use don hand for his sword. His left hand would get in the way. Terror was about to slash at Faded at the same right side again but he quickly dodged. Terror turned to left to see Faded stand there.*

"I'll be back Terror....Don't you worry..."

*Faded's eyes gimmered into the darkness as he faded into the darkness. His taughting laughter echoed and echoed. His laughter drived Terror's mind crazy. He wanted to kill Faded...Terror turned around to see where Matsuei was... Eclipse saw that Faded was leaving and he did too. Eclipse did not want to be left behind. Matsuei was about to attack with another sword blow but Eclipse faded into the darkness silently looking at Matsuei with his eyes gleaming. Terror and Zain stood queitly watching them leave.*

"..What was that Zain...?"

"The question reallt was..Who were they...And why us..."

*2 torches appeared out of no where. The torches lit a path a door. Zain and Terror nodded and they entered into the room with Zain first and Terror behind. When they entered, they saw it was at last! The shining Gott room. Its golden light surrounded them. They appoached the treasure chest. They awaited for this moment, forgetting all about Faded and Eclipse. They took their Slayers and tapped on it.*

-The End....Or is it?-
