this is not the showdown, but it seems like it xD
Chapter 6- Sibling Rivalry! Descendants Of the Ten-Tailed Fox
Auburn had been chasing butterflies for hours on end carelessly, thinking that it’s some sort of fairy. Ling and Argent just watched him, finding nothing else to do. They walked through many places, Auburn being his old goofy self. He would save some helpless lady at one time, and accidentally setting fire to an entire town at another. They had been on top of tall mountains, camping in caves and such for the last week.
But Auburn still had those visions once in a while. But Auburn always shrugged them away, saying it’s nothing. Secretly, Argent became worried that she might have something to do with it, since most of the visions are triggered by actions involving her. But she always wondered why. That one word had got her mind filled with thoughts, disregarding Ling and his womanizing. Hopefully she would find out the answers, she just had to wait.
They had come to a house on fire. Auburn quickly rushed in and got out most of the people except for a little boy. He got him, but in the distance, in the flaming hallway, he saw somebody. He couldn’t quite make him out, but he was there. He was in a black cloak, the unknown looking at him. A burning log fell in front of him, and saw that the unknown was gone. He shook his head and got everyone out safely. Auburn looked back at the house. Who was he?
“Great job Auburn.” said Ling, as they walked in a field of beautiful blossoming flowers.
“Guys...I saw someone in there..” said Auburn.
“Really? Was he one of the people?” said Argent curiously.
“No...he seemed different. Maybe I was just seeing things.” said Auburn, looking up into the bright blue sky. Auburn stopped. Argent and Ling stopped as well. What happened?
Auburn turned around, making a zombie face, yelling ‘HYAKASHABOOGALA!’ Argent and Ling screamed in fright. This resulted in a laughing Auburn. They thought he was gonna have another vision, but it was just him, being stupid. Ling found it too funny, as he started rolling on the floor, laughing away. Auburn started laughing as well, until his laughter faded, as his vision went black.
I finally found you....
Here I come...
Auburn woke up, his head in a lot of pain. Argent picked him up from the floor. He shook his head and looked around. That voice...seemed familiar, he just couldn’t point it out.
“Dude, you blacked out. Was it a vision?” said Ling.
“No...” said Auburn as he looked around. His eyes widened, as he grabbed Argent and ran to the side, a massive explosion erupting.
It was a warning.
A man appeared in a black mist, with a sword similar to Auburn’s, walking towards them. Ling tried to attack him, but the unknown slapped him out of his way, Ling knocked unconscious, lost in the flowers.
“Argent, take care of Ling.” said Auburn. Argent nodded, and ran to Ling. Auburn stood, and looked at this unknown. Auburn’s scarlet eyes glared at him, only to find scarlet eyes staring back at him.
“Who are you? And why did you hurt my friend?” said Auburn, in a battle stance. The unknown chuckled.
“It seems that you do not remember me... Maybe it’s time I reminded you the hard way.” said the unknown, as he lifted his hood, revealing his face. Auburn was in complete shock. He looked exactly like him. Everything from facial features, to the white hair and scarlet eyes. The only thing that set them apart was a scar down his cheek. The unknown grinned as he gave Auburn a death glare.
“You look like me....” said Auburn, shocked. The unknown laughed manically.
“You really are thick in the head. You defeated my colleague back on that cliff, so I come with a message: Your journey ends here!” said the unknown, as he dashed towards Auburn, his speed exactly the same as his. He punched Auburn, Auburn sent hurling back. He landed roughly, as they started exchanging blows. The unknown was just as skilled as he was. Who was this person!?
“How sad...you do not even know what you are!” said the unknown.
“Enlighten me...what am I exactly!?” said Auburn.
“We are descendants of the legendary Ten-Tailed Fox. You were the only one who did not know about your heritage! Sad, really.” he said as he gave Auburn a swift blow to the chest.
"Ten-Tailed Fox?” said Auburn curiously, holding his chest.
“A kitsune that is born every ten-thousand years. He ravaged many towns, until he died protecting his new family...you, and me.” said the unknown, looking at Auburn maliciously.
“That means...”
“Yes, dear brother.”
“I am nothing like you!” said Auburn, as he recklessly attacked the unknown.
“We are the one and the same! Accept your bloodline, brother!” said the unknown, as he kicked him down onto the ground.
“Draw your sword!” said the unknown, as he pulled the huge sword from his back.
"I am not your brother!” said Auburn, as he drew his Broken Angel, as their sword fight began.
Argent had heard everything. So his transformation at the cliff...meant he was nothing but a menacing beast? No, Auburn wasn’t like that. He had protected her. He was different. She tried to wake up Ling, but to no avail. All she could do was pray that Auburn would win.
The skies turned black from their battle. Shockwaves of power and bursts of energy resulted from the blades colliding. They were moving so fast, Argent could barely keep track of their movements. Her hair flowed with the rough wind, as flower petals rained down on them, petals cut into two when they came near the battle.
“I am the stronger brother!”
“No chance!”
These words rung through the battlefield, as craters were carved onto the earth. They collided once again, both panting. They were in the middle of a massive crater, as rocks encircled around them, spinning around.
“I’m bored of playing around. Fight me in your true form!’
“No!”
“Then I’ll have no choice than to force you to!” the unknown said, as he threw a ball of heat towards Argent. Auburn’s eyes widened. He sent the unknown reeling back, and tried to stop the blast from impacting. But it was too late. A huge explosion resulted, Auburn still running. He ran as fast as he could, and came to Ling and Argent. Argent was badly injured, covered in ashes.
“Au..burn..” said Argent, as she laid there, lifeless. The unknown cackled at her pain. Auburn sat there. A tear slowly trickled down his face. Slowly, a purple aura swirled around him. His sword disappeared, as he once again took on his kitsune form. His eyes turned light purple. He roared into the sky, the loud roar echoing through the battlefield. His purple eyes leered at the unknown, as he stood up, his energy surrounding him.
“Excellent. Now it’s time!” said the unknown, as grey energy swirled around him. His eyes turned a pale grey. His weapon disappeared. His body became bigger, as he had claws. They looked exactly the same, only their eyes setting them apart.
“Fight me! Fight me with all of your rage!” said the unknown with a warped voice. His voice seemed to be mixed with an animal.
Auburn clenched his fists, as he charged at him, only the unknown to catch his punch. They dodged each other’s attacks, still equally matched. He was going to pay. He will be defeated. He was not going to lose to this evil sibling.
“DIE!” said Auburn, as his claws glowed purple and gashed the unknown’s face. The both roared at each other, their energies destroying anything around them. It swirled and spiraled, obliterating any wildlife around them. They kepy ardently trying to overpower each other. The crater they were in only got deeper and bigger as the battle continued. Black blood trickled down the unknown’s cheek, both of them baring their fangs at each other. Their claws pierced through each other’s skin, black blood seeping from their hands, the blood melting the ground when it landed.
Auburn....
Argent?
Don’t give up...
He’s just as strong as me, if not more...I don’t think I can win..
Just believe...I know I do.
He saw her. The mysterious girl. She was on swings, the swings attached to a cork tree. Her hair swayed in the wind, the petals of cherry blossoms blowing in the wind. Auburn forgot about the battle for a second, as he closed his eyes.
I will keep going.
Auburn’s eyes widened, as his hands started to glow with a dark violet energy. He pushed back the unknown, and punched him with his glowing hands, the sound of bones breaking as a result. Auburn formed a ball of energy in his hands, as it became more powerful.
“You hurt my friends....I will never forgive you!” said Auburn, as his ball of energy shined brightly. The unknown was almost blinded by it, as he covered his eyes.
“Impossible! He’s learned the Kitsune Blast already!?” said the unknown, holding his ribs, growling. He crossed his arms, as the sound of bones snapping together, his ribs reconstructed. Auburn threw his energy at the unknown, as it enveloped him in an purple energy, the explosion building up until it resulted in a giant field of energy, Auburn’s vision turning white.
The unknown’s cloak was in tatters, himself all bloody and bruised. He growled quietly, lying in a sea of rubble and debris. He couldn’t move, for the boulders and rocks bound him. He saw through the smoke, that Auburn was coming. His hands was still glowing purple, on of the stars on his cheeks gone. He looked upon the unknown with anger, as he pointed his hand towards the unknown. A ball of energy formed again, as it shined before the unknown.
“Die.”
Another field of energy erupted, Auburn in a brief calm. This battle is over. His vision was white, as a memory came to him.
Two boys ran along a beach, as the young Auburn tripped on a shell, and landed face first into the sand. The other boy came, and pulled him out, the young Auburn spitting out the sand.
“Thanks Gray.”
“Always so reckless, Auburn.” he said, as they both laughed.
So his name was Gray. It didn’t matter now. He was dead now, he was sure. When he looked, he saw Gray, still there, fading away. Although shocked, he just looked at his defeated brother with disdain. He was retreating. He coughed hoarsely, as his body faded into the mist.
“You were always the stronger brother, Auburn.” he said.
“I want you alive. I need a rival.”
“Then expect to see me again, dear brother.”
“I will be.”
“I will be stronger..I promis you, Auburn, son of the Ten-Tailed Fox.” said Gray, as he faded away, the black mist flowing with the wind. Auburn smiled, and forgot about Argent. He rushed to her side, and stroked her hair. Please don’t be dead, he thought. He saw her eyes lift, Auburn smiling cheerfully.
“I guess...you won?” said Argent, looking at all of the damage. The black skies had cleared up, the sun shining on the battleground. Ling got up, very disoriented.
“Aww man, I got one HELL of a headache.” said Ling, rubbing his head. Auburn was more than happy to see them alive. He looked into the distance. Gray was out there. Auburn could sense a lost soul in that body. He knew, he had to bring him back.
After the battle...the sun is always there, to shine on the remaining.
