Chapter 17
Xavier- I hope young Merkin is alright it seems he's alright gotten use to his missing arm
Merlin in the house on top of the dragon making a sandwich
Crescent- he'll be fine Xavier
Xavier- Crescent.. it's so weird to see you here especially because last time I saw you we fought-
Crescent- it was a long time ago we were teens and could barley do anything to him anyways
Xavier- it was the peak of our abilities though
Crescent- well we made sacrifices to take something away from him so that those in the future have a better chance against him
Xavier- it's likely he's listening right now and doesn't even care
Crescent- he can't listen to our conversations because of me remember?
Xavier- oh yes that's correct.
Fair- it's so nice to see you two boys back together just like when you were kids and use to fool around with each other and battle all the time it really is like the good old days huh?
Xavier- no it isn't at all.. Crescent hasn't thrown a single pie at my face the whole time I've been here
Fair- HAHAHA I remember you use to get so angry at Crescent
Crescent- haha remember that time we slayed an army of dragons and Xavier thought he still had clothes after he came back not knowing they were burnt by the dragons?
Fair- HAHAHA or the time you got rejected by Valeria for the fifth time and she slapped you across the face
Crescent- oh yes that slap hurt
Xavier- haha remember when Fair forgot to put a Seattle on Chronicle Chaos dragon and he fell right off it plummeting into the hard rock
Fair- HAHA so good
Crescent- those were such good times it seemed like we were tasked with nothing back then
Xavier- but we were weren't we Crescent moon
Inside the house on the dragon
Merlin- I wonder what there all laughing about over there
Mercy- probably old memories
Darius- yes I think it is old memories I may not know them aside from Fair a little bit the way they talk to each other it seems they've been friends a very long time my personal head canon is that Fair is like a father to Xavier and Crescent while they are like brothers
Merlin- hmm Fair is rather old isn't he?
Darius- he is.. he's my father after all
Mercy- I totally forgot he's your dad
Darius- yes he payed allot of attention to me and my elder brother Parteque but payed little attention to my elder sister Eve
Mercy- my mother.. WAIT THAT MEANS FAIR IS MY GRANDFATHER!
Merlin- you just now caught on to that?
Mercy- that means the guy you killed at Yokai Academy was my cousin?
Merlin- yeah but a monstrous person he was
Darius- yes Fair is your grandfather I'm unsure of what Eve did before she had you… I was told she forced Cassius to-
Vilna- Mercy come to bed you must rest for you have much fight ahead of you
Mercy- I'm gonna go for now guys go chat it up with them I'm sure something interesting will come up
Darius- it always dose
Merlin- haha see you later Mercy
Darius- Merlin.. you know that form you use at the brink of death
Merlin- I.. I know what you're talking about but I never have control over it
Darius- It's called twilight it's dangerous and can destroy next to anything on its path.. you must obtain control over it Merlin
Merlin- I guess.. how do you know so much about my mana?
Darius- It's.. a long story.. just know it's said that the boy with Starfall mana shall be born of three different manas as well.. and you will be the one to slay the god of the land
Merlin- what are the three types?
Darius- Starfall is your normal state twilight is your more red uncontrollable state then there is Darklast..
Merlin- what dose Darklast do?
Darius-… Just try your hardest to contain that if it ever dose come…
Merlin- I..
Darius- let's go talk to them there just been talking for hours outside
Merlin- sure
Crescent- my son
Fair- I always meant to ask you what is that boys mana you're son has highly unique mana
Xavier- I was going to ask the same thing actually
Merlin- it's called Starfall mama but apparently it has 2 different branches after this base form of it which are Twilight and Darklast
Fair- D..DARKLAST MANA?!
Crescent- what's wrong?!
Xavier- Fair?!
Fair- I was a boy and read of such a thing.. it's said he will slay the peak of the land
Darius- i know much about it father
Fair- Darius you must inform me
Darius- I will inform all of you of what I know but first let's hang out for a bit.. I've been teleporting everywhere and making sure everything's been going according to plan I need to rest
Fair- I understand boy take a seat and share your story's with us. You too Merlin
Hours of talking goes by as they fly over a huge city of chains and a portal in the very center under a building words on the building read "you cannot contain me" the city was in ruin
Merlin- whoah what happened to this city?
Darius- Marshal killed his father Catalyst here although he had mana that was the weakness of Catalyst
Merlin- Muriel's brother and father. Last thing I heard of Marshal he went to fight on the moon against a terrorist
Darius-… I'm sorry to say this but Marshal is likely dead and has been dead for a long time even though he's stronger than most.. even though i don't even thing you and Mercy could take him at the same time he is very much dead and that terrorist on the moon has come searching for you Merlin
Merlin-… dose that mean William midnight died as well?
Darius- yes he died in battle he's much stronger then Marshal was but died likely quickly because of the threat that Adrien actually is
Merlin- that's his name?
Darius- maybe I said too much
Merlin- when I get my arm back I will hunt Adrien down
Darius- you will not encounter Adrien until you are millions of times stronger Merlin.. you me no one here aside from fair and maybe Crescent stand a chance
Fair- Were approaching the portal now
Xavier- get ready for layer 4
The portal is blocked by a man floating there
Fair- who are you
Catalyst- I see so there are one two .. seven of you here and three dragons..
Darius- I thought you were dead didn't Marshal kill you?
Catalyst- I was dead but I had a curse to where when he dies id be revived
Darius- shit dad can you get rid of him
Fair is fast asleep along with Crescent
Darius- god Damnit.. welp guess I'm your opponent Catalyst
Catalyst- let's see if your a worthy one
Darius teleports behind him
Darius- apparently I'm more than your match
Darius try's grabbing Catalyst but he is too fast and speed blitzes him
Darius- my attacks are all instantaneous.. how could you possibly be faster than instant?
Catalyst- I see if you would've touched me I'd turn into ash wouldn't I? It explains the transparent mana doesn't it?
Darius- not really but you knew exactly what was going to happen if i touched you.. your observation is insane how did you know?
Catalyst- I have the sixth sense as well as speed that goes beyond instant speed you're feats are impressive but compared to someone like myself they are nothing
Darius- your mana.. it's a dark transparent but it isn't transparent mana nor grey or black mana what is it?
Catalyst- it's called ancient mana it's ability's go beyond normal transparent mana this is why my speed is much greater then yours
Darius- speed? You keep rambling about how you've achieved beyond instant speed but I've met a few who have achieved that Icarus was much faster then you are
Catalyst- Icarus? That's just a folktale a legend no one could've met Icarus the Angel of death not even Azazel himself
Darius- oh but Azazel has Icarus and Azazel are the same type of Angel not just normal fallen angels they are earthbound there are but three earth bound and Icarus and Azazel are two of them
Catalyst- you expect me to believe this? Who would be the third earthbound then?
Darius- well… that's me
Darius opens his eyes reveling spiraling pupils
Darius- now I can see your movements Catalyst
Catalyst- oh? How could you possibly be the third earthbound if only fallen angels are the other earthbound?
Darius- my mother is a fallen Angel
Merlin- what the hells going on out here?
Mercy- holy shit your dad did it before I did?
Fair wakes up
Fair- HEY WHATS ALL THE COMMOTION?!
Crescent continues to sleep
Mercy- you fucked a fallen Angel before I was ever with one?!
Fair- GOD DAMNIT DARIUS YOU GOING AROUND TELLING EVERYONE ABOUT EVELIN?
Darius- uhh.. dad your awake haha what a great time to.. watch me fight
Fair- hmm fine I've always wondered what tricks you could pull. Who is that?
Darius- well that's-
Catalyst- IM CATALYST LUCIFER OF THE THIRD LAYER OF THE INFERNO YOU DONT KNOW OF ME?!!
Fair- yawn.. no not really
Merlin- hmm his mana is so different
Mercy- I noticed.. his manas mood changed when Darius showed him his spiral
Merlin- Spiral?
Mercy- it's a very efficient way of reading someone's movement and allows him to go faster the faster his opponent is.
Merlin- what if his opponent is too fast?
Mercy- even if he doesn't see his opponent as long as he faced the general direction of his opponent once he will become much faster then them
Merlin- that's.. really cool technique I should learn it
Mercy- I know you learn abilities really fast but I doubt you'd be able to learn his
Merlin- I see hey dad
Crescent still asleep
Merlin- HEY DAD!
Crescent- wha- what is it boy speak
Merlin- pay attention to this fight things are finally getting interesting
Crescent- huh? Oh Darius is going to fight..
Xavier- finally finished using the bathroom… and Darius is fighting a dead guy well that's news to me..
Merlin- there you are Xavier
Xavier- OH MERLIN MY SWEET RAY OF SUNSHINE MY STAR IN THE SKY MY KNIGHT IN SHINING MOON LIKE ARMOR
Crescent- hey Xavier Merlin looks allot like me as a kid is that why you adore him so much haha
Xavier- well yes it's that and he is the complete opposite of you as a kid. While you were always so emo and gloomy unless you we're making fun of me and Fair Merlin has been a ray of light in on everyone's lives. It's as if he gathers people around him and they all respect and admire him
Crescent- hmm I guess so huh? Where is Lax btw?
Guvo in the house
Guvo- Vilna… I've been meaning to ask you.. why is Mercy bloody when he leaves this room?…
Vilna- oh.. well.. it's not really something I wish to go into detail about..
Guvo- and why is that?
Vilna- it's personal
Guvo- you beat him for satisfaction or something?
Vilna- no that's not it-
Guvo- then why is my student coming out of this room looking like he was just put through a mountain
Vilna- have you noticed any real damage?
Guvo- trying to cover it up?
Vilna- have you even tried healing him if he was in pain?
Guvo- he has blood mana he heals himself.. look the point is I'm not going to just sit by and let him get hurt
Vilna- But I-
Guvo- but what? You've only been making yourself look more guilty with each word.. what have you been putting Mercy through?
Vilna- I HAVENT LAYED A HAND IN HIM
Guvo- THAN WHY-
Vilna- MY BODY CANT HANDLE US MAKING LOVE…
Guvo-…I'm.. terribly sorry I just..
Vilna- no it's.. not your fault.. Mercy is a human and I'm an Angel.. we weren't meant to be together.. but I don't care what is meant for me I want him I want to be with him no matter what..
Guvo- Maybe.. you two will find a way to get to that point.. I'm sorry for intruding.. forgive me Vilna
Vilna- you are forgiven Lax now let me rest I'm very tired to see what the commotion is
Guvo- I was wondering what the hell was going on out there
