Erebus

Hell Awaits No One.

The dusk sky becomes night, the pale white moon stares at me with its ominous eyes. I feel the need to fly, the perfect melody to embrace. I turn and face the ground, once again. My clothes move with the wind. I feel alive. The same storm cloud from earlier is still there. I fly towards my home, a strange feeling draws near… "Look who he chose! A puny little weakling such as yourself! Hahaha!" The voice surrounds me, "Welcome to the [Realm of Shadows], boy!" Realm of.. "Erebus!" He laughs, "I seem to have found you, haven't I?" He begins forming something from his hand "Witness demise, boy!" The object in his hand forms and he swings, missing. "Tch." The bracelet glows black, a button appearing at the top of it. I press down on it, activating something. "WHat is thi-?" !! A scythe appears in my hand, and the distant voice draws closer. "AGIOS SYNC ENGAGED. PERCENT SYNCED: 30." Erebus uncovers his eyes, "Tch, that idiot! Why'd he intrust that to you?!" I smile, "It seems we're even matched, Erebus." He laughs manically, "YOU, ON PAR WITH ME? I DON'T BELIEVE IT!" I fly forwards, "PERCENT SYNCED: 40." I swing the scythe at him, but it misses. "Tch." The scythe reacts, growing smaller. "PERCENT SYNCED: 50." I fly forwards and swing again, barely hitting him in the arm. He laughs, "You think you're powerful, stop lying to yourself!" I grin, "You should check your sword." He looks down, his sword begins making a cracking sound. "I didn't target you. I targeted your weapon." He grins "Lucky you, oh lucky you." Objects begin forming around him. "You think I didn't come prepared? You're full of yourself! Idiotic boy!" I smile, "This is getting fun." I stare down at the scythe, and back at Erebus. "PERCENT SYNCED: 80." 80%?! "Your little toy isn't going to help you!" I fly forward, as does he, I clash his sword with the edge of my scythe. We both fly back, fly forward, clash, repeat. An infinite cycle. "PERCENT SYNCED: 97." Only 3%?! I smile, "Go to hell, tell the devil I'm not that far behind." HE laughs again, "You're so full of yourself, boy!" I fly forward and clash his sword, breaking it. "Get ready for some real fun, boy!" A newly shaped object begins to form at his fingers. "PERCENT SYNCED: 100. AGIOS ENGAGEMENT: READY."

Hell Awaits No One. II

"AGIOS ENGAGEMENT: READY." Agios..what?! !! Erebus flies forward while I'm not looking, "You cheap bastard!" He laughs, "You won't get anywhere if you think I'm a cheap bastard!" The bracelet glows black again, "READY..SET.." I press down on the button. The pistol appears, I point it at my temple, and shoot. "What in the-?" !! The gun re-appears in my hand, and a black robe shrouds my body. "AGIOS: INFERNAL PARADE, ENGAGED." I feel a surge of power flow through my body. "Tch, easy trick, boy!" I dodge out of his way, "Go ahead, ladies first." I shoot him from behind. "Don't think you'll get off that easy." He wipes the blood from his face. He drops his weapon, "I'm ready to fight…my way." He stands back. "Those crimson..eyes..you're not just a 'Blessed'?!" I smile, "I guess not." I drop my weapons, the gun and robe forming back into the bracelet. Our wings retract, and we glide to the ground. He tries to throw a punch the second I land on the ground. Dodge. I throw one, miss. He throws one again and hits. I throw one and miss. He throws another, a hit. I throw a curve and hit. He throws a curve and hits. I wipe the blood off my face before throwing another one. "Su…mon.." I turn to hear the voice. He throws one amidst me not paying attention, a hit. "Summon..the strength…" I turn to hear better again. He throws another punch and lands it. "SUMMON THE STRENGTH OF MAYHEM." I turn to hear…another blow..frustrated…I feel something crawl up my neck..onto my face..and into my eye…My eye glows a deep crimson.. "What is thi-" I throw one straight at him. Hit. Another. Hit. Another. Hit. Another. Hit. "SUMMON THE STRENGTH OF MAYHEM!" My head twitches. I feel the bracelet react. The scythe appears in my hand. Erebus, now on the ground. Vulnerable to everything. "Death awaits you, my friend." He laughs "You will never be able to live another normal day." I grin, "Lost shadows left behind. Goodbye." I swing the scythe. Killing him in a blow. The feeling…is fading…I'm…falling…...goodbye.. "Het Higtl Ybru" A man laughs, "Welcome to hell. Kid."
