The sun hadn't showed itself yet. He took a drink. He stood up. His chest felt as if it was shattered. He could barely breathe. He forced air into his lungs. He walked over to the sink. He coughed blood. Fuck. He took another drink. He place his hand on his chest. He coughed blood again. Fucking hell, that bloody fucking kick. He held himself to the sink with his right hand and grabbed his chest with his left hand. He coughed once again. No blood. He sat down on the chair and took a drink. I'll get some payback. He silently laughed but stopped because of the pain in his chest. He took a drink from the bottle that his father had given him, it reduced some of the pain. He sighed and leaned back.
"Painful isn't it?"
"Who ar-," He said turning around to face the person speaking, he fell out of his chair, "What do you want?"
"The deal, we had a deal."
"I haven't had the time to do that."
"You shall not betray me, I give you until tomorrow, tomorrow evening, at the peak of the moon," Jarvan whispered, "Or else, or else Cassidy will suffer," He laughed before he disappeared in a black cloud of smoke. It dissipated and he was gone. Hugo rushed to lean over the sink. He coughed more blood. Fuck. He grabbed his chest. He took another drink. He breathed heavily. He wiped his forehead of the sweat. He put his hand on his chest. Fuck, that was all but a simple kick, how did he put so much power on such a small kick, it sent me flying. He took out a knife and slashed his chest over the sink. The wound blackened as the pain dissipated. Being in the demonborn state seems to reduce pain, maybe that is why nothing was hurting father. His chest blackened and the blood flow stopped. He felt no pain in his chest. He took another drink. He looked outside. Daybreak, I'll wake Cass. He placed his hand on her stomach, he walked his fingers on her. She smiled as she slowly awoke. She opened her eyes gently. She rubbed her eyes. He leaned down and kissed her.
"Good morning, my beauty."
"Good morning," She yawned, "What did you do to your chest?"
"The pain was still there, and so I tried this and it doesn't hurt anymore," Hugo kissed her, "Do you want to come with me?"
"Sure," She yawned as she put her shirt on, "Skirt or pants?"
"I don't know, skirt?"
"Okay then," She said as she got up, "Maybe Sona can help your chest?"
"Maybe, I wasn't able to," He said as he put his coat on and moved towards the door, "Don't get to excited when we fight."
She gave him a smile and put her arms around his right arm and they left the house.
They soon arrived on the small beach his father was supposed to meet him. On the other end of the beach, a man was sitting on the rocks, looking out to sea. They walked towards the man. Hugo couldn't see his face. As they neared him, he got up and turned to face them. Hugo froze. Cassidy looked at the man then back at Hugo.
"Who is that?" She said trying to get Hugo's attention, "Why does he look exactly like you? Answer me," The man walked toward them, "Who is he? Answer me, are you deaf? Answer me!"
"Do not worry, Cassidy," The man said, "Omega will be here very soon."
"What did you do to Hugo? Why is he petrified?"
"To make sure your choice is unbiased."
"What choice? Who are you?"
"I am the God of Good, my dear," He explained, "I heard from Sona, that you wanted to become immortal, am I correct?"
"Ye-yes, I did say that, why? What do I have to accept?"
"To become immortal, in your current state, would be impossible," He said eyeballing her, "You would have to lose your pure human form."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Well, let's just say you would have some sort of animal attribute, physical attribute, but you would retain your human body, with a little difference like maybe a tail, things like that, I cannot just make you immortal, you are not part of a bloodline of immortal beings, nor have you died and reborn, so this is the thing you must sacrifice."
"But why would you do this for me?"
"I can't have a mortal being in an immortal bloodline can I?" He chuckled, "So, do you want to join Hugo as an immortal being?"
"Yes."
"Very well, later today you will see the changes," He said as he faded, "But don't tell Hugo, he will worry more than anything."
"Okay, but what type of-," She said as he disappeared, "He's gone."
"What just happened?" Hugo asked, "Where did the guy go?"
"What guy? You are probably just a little tired, there was no one here."
"If you say so," He said as she walked over to a rock and sat down, "I wonder when my father will be here."
"Hugo, you brought Cassidy along as well," He called from behind them, "Are you ready?" Hugo turned to notice that he was already in demon form, his bone arm was there, "What are you waiting for? Let's do this."
Cuts opened of Hugo's forearms and the black blades emerged. He leaped forward at Omega. Omega moved to the side, dodging the lunge. Hugo put his hand to the ground and a pillar of sand rose and directed itself at Omega. Several others did the same. Omega dodged increasing his own speed to godly levels. Hugo morphed his arms into two scythe-like blades. He propelled himself using the sand below him and lunged at Omega. Omega lifted his right arm and stopped both blades, barely moving. They held each other in a stalemate.
"Can you do any better?" Omega withdrew his blade and hopped back throwing sand in Hugo's eyes. Hugo reeled and wiped his eyes of the sand. He opened his eyes to see Omega, in a completely different form. He had two pairs of wings. His horns were standing up. His eyes were black with an empty red circle in the middle. Black spikes created a set of armor on his body. His arms had returned to their normal state, a bone hand and a blackened hand. Hugo changed the scythe hands into straight blades and jumped forward, flipping forward and bringing both the blades crashing towards Omega. He suddenly lost all of his speed. Omega had blocked both blades with his bare hands. He closed his hands crushing the blades, making them shatter. Hugo fell to one knee as the pain shot through his body. Blood trickled down his arms as they regained their original form. His hands weren't broken but they were covered in blood. He got back up to his feet as Omega lost his form and returned to his human form.
"You know I have more strength than you do in that form," Omega said shaking his head, "I can still shatter your demonborn bones."
"What the fuck was that?" He panted as blood dripped to the sand.
"A form that takes more than just being a demonborn," He said as he took a drink, "I might show you the form someday, but you shouldn't get so confident just because Cassidy is here," He laughed as Hugo got to his feet, "Another round?" Hugo said nothing as sand wrapped around Omega. He jumped back, without using a demonborn form. He closed his hand and the sand tightened and hardened around Omega. He used a blade of air to slice through the sand tomb. It cut right through and the sand collapsed. He separated the sand and there was nothing. What the fuck? He felt something tap his shoulder. He turned around and brought his foot at his head level using air to protect it and increase its speed. Omega ducked dodging the kick. Hugo pushed himself and launched another kick but Omega lifted his arm and blocked the full force of the kick. The kick made him move a few centimeters back. Hugo jumped back to the ground. He put his hands on the ground and two hands of stone rose from the ground and closed around Omega. They sealed around him. Hugo made a ball of dense air and threw it at the hands. The ball cut through the hands and then expanded in the hands with such force that is shattered the hands. Omega was in the middle with a bone cocoon around him. It returned to his left arm. He was laughing. How the fuck did he survive that? And he is laughing. Hugo sent pillars of sand crashing towards him. Omega easily dodged them moving ever closer to Hugo. Hugo wrapped sand around him making an armor of sand. Omega launched himself at Hugo and instead of hitting him, he swung, grabbing his shoulder with his left arm, then let go and only launched him by kicking his lower back. Hugo went flying forward and caught himself with a pillow of sand. He rose to his feet. Omega ran towards him changing his bone arm into a shield and placed it in front of him. Hugo rose a stone wall in front of him to block Omega's charge. The wall shattered as he hit it. He jumped up in the air and changed his arm back to it's normal form and brought it to the ground violently, creating a crater in the sand. Hugo had jumped back avoiding the thundering hit. He moved the sand around Omega's right foot. He closed his hand and the sand locked around his foot and hardened. Omega looked down at his foot and laughed again. He lifted his foot with nearly no effort. He ripped his radius off as another grew in its place. It grew into the form of a blade. He rushed towards Hugo. He sent pillars of sand at him but Omega dodged them easily. He turned his hands into blades of his own and ran towards Omega and spun before the blades clashed. Omega let go of his blade after the hit, throwing off Hugo's balance before sweeping his legs from under him and pushing him to the ground. Hugo went to get up but stopped seeing a bone blade at his throat.
"Checkmate," He said as the blade disappeared and he held out his bone hand, "You fought better this time, how is your chest?"
"I think that pain is gone," He said as he felt his chest, "I don't feel any pain."
"Good then," He said as he helped him to his feet, "At least if you go crazy, I will still be able to stop you," He laughed and slapped his back. Hugo turned to Cassidy, she was clapping. He walked to her side.
"That was so impressive," She said as she kissed him, "Are you done?"
"Yeah, why don't we go back to the house?"
"Sure," They got up and left the beach. The sun was slowly climbing.
