1000meters down in the Ground, Jude was struggling to recover from the pain and hurt he just received.
"Ughhh, that hurt like shit. My heads a little dizzy, it's strange though I should be dead from an attack like that how come I only got injured enough to give me a headache."
** that's because your using my power so even though you can only use skills that you unlocked your power and physical strength increases every time you level up**
"You weren't kidding about it being a game were you." Grunted Jude picking himself up and looking up to see a dot of light at the top of this long, long, long ditch.
He got ready to jump his way back up, when suddenly the narrow dome's right side wall shattered apart and out came a hand that swallowed Jude's face crushing it. Wriggling wildly about to brake free from his grasp, Granditus only fastened his grip.
"Hey kiddo, what you doing down here, don't you want to spend time with your good old gramps," he said looking amused at how helpless Jude looked.
* how could someone like this be the man that I loved and looked up to as family. There's no way he faked it the entire time right, coz to be able to do something like that is just sick. Oh no I'm losing consciousness, I'm... ganna... faint.* thought Jude.
** oh yee take my calling let the present become the future within this vessel and let the strength of the original flow throw his veins** spoke a voice that sounded like Zetsuros but not clear for Jude was losing his will to stay awake.
When all hope was lost Jude woke up in an instant misunderstanding the situation and thinking that he was in the afterlife.
When he looked down he realised what happened, and yet again Zetsuros saves him in the last second. He had transformed into something that he knew was what Zetsuros wanted him to be like in the future when his training was at its peak. To be frank even Jude was amazed and speechless about it, not even sure anymore that he can reach this level.
On his head he had horns that were thirty centimetres high then curved back a bit and came down and had a flick at the end of each. He had black scales that covered his cheek and forehead and the rest of the body. He wore a king sized, night sky coloured robe that came all the way down to his feet and wings that were as big as mountains that could barely in the narrow ditch. He had a tail that was 100metres long, that had a trident shape to it at the tip.
** I used a spell to make your body go in the future but you stay in the present. In other words you have the power to stop him now, but it is a pain that we had to use this spell because once used I can't use it again. You've got 3minutes to beat him, then the spell wears off**
Jude's tail wrapped its self hard around Granditus' arm forcing it to let go of his face.
"3minutes is all I need," said Jude in a harsh voice.
Granditus confused for multiple reasons wonted to end this now before things got out of hand, so he crushed his fingers together till he made a fist. It was then he realised that nothing was there for him to crush and in the Same second he felt a punch on his rib cage piercing all the way through and out the other end.
"What the hell," he said while spilling out gallons of blood.
"How did... plurrrrrr...you get so strong...ugghhh... within only a few seconds."
As an answer Jude connected an uppercut to his jaw completely breaking Granditus' bones and sending him flying at a tremendous speed up the ditch and out of it and into the sky within seconds. Then, Jude took hold of hold of his face yet again and made him plummet down onto the ground causing a hole 500metres deep and 100miles wide.
Granditus roared with pain and cried out so load the entire world could probably hear him. He looked up at Jude and changed his expression from grunting with pain to smirking with amusement.
"Looks like...hhuuuhhhh...I'll have to... ugghhhh...take it up a-" started Granditus.
He couldn't finish for he was being chocked by Jude, who seemed to have teleported next to him, and was left helpless to do anything about it.
"Shut up old man I'm beyond pissed of right now." Spoke Jude and also the voice of Zetsuros, the two now, at this new form, spoke and did everything in unison.
Granditus, while being chocked, lifted up his hand then brought it down just as fast causing a rainstorm full of ice spears raining down on Jude. Smoke covered everywhere, but Granditus was sure that he was injured from that.
"Don't... get... to cocky... little... brat," struggled Granditus wondering why Judes grip hadn't loosened up from that attack.
Out of the smoke Granditus saw something that made his bones and entire sprit feel absolutely hopeless. He was sweating cats and dogs, more frightened then anything, he felt like he was facing death it's self. Completely forgetting about the pain in his pierced rib cage, he wanted to scream and get out of there as soon as possible, for what he was seeing was far more powerful that it was on par with the king of all dragons.
"Your really starting to piss me off you know," Exclaimed Jude/Zetsuros in a cold killer tone.
"Count your self lucky that Zetsuros wants to keep you alive for questioning, but after then I'll send YOU back to YOUR good old friend Hades."
Zetsuros came out of Jude's body and the transformation vanished. Granditus was to beaten, to the point that anything could kill, to fight back so Jude let go of his grip causing the old man to fall flat on his back spilling a pool of blood next to him. Zetsuros came closer to the old dragon and Jude stood at the side not knowing what to feel for this man anymore.But what he did feel was that all those people caught in the cross fire are...
"Hey Zetsuros, did all those people...," Jude said shaking at the thought of it.
"Don't worry I used a spell to teleport all those people, but where they went, I don't know. Though saying that, this does means I can never use that spell again, because of my lack of power I can use spells, but only once. What a hassle this is, truly a pain." Zetsuros stated.
Feeling like a weight was lifted from his shoulder Jude came closer to Zetsuros and Granditus, who was still lying almost unconsciously on the floor.
"I can't believe you lied to me all this time, did you even love me at all or was it all truly just fake." Jude asked to see if there was even a shred of hope left.
"You... were a pain... in the... ass," said Granditus barely able to reply.
"Yes, yes what a tragedy but we have more important things to ask before he kicks the bucket," Zetsuros said with an urgent manner showing that they didn't have time for that, then turning his attention back to Granditus.
"You, You scoundrel, you little vermin, a pathetic excuse of a dragon, you-"
"Thought you said that we had more time or does that rule only imply to me," interrupted Jude smirk at Zetsuros.
Feeling embarrassed Zetsuros continued,
"So how come you are here, you couldn't have come for the reason because I was let of my coffin, no no no you came here for another reason. What was that reason because it'd have to be a big one to send a squad captain here."
"Well... no point... in hiding it. There's another." Replied Granditus.
"Another what? Speak! Stop taking so long to say a sentence!" Shouted Zetsuros.
"Well we were the ones that did mess him up so...-"stated Jude.
"Be quite boy!" Shouted Zetsuros.
"You, tell me what you were going to say."
"You know what i mean-" started Granditus.
"I'm going to make the boy kill you in the next five seconds, if you don't stop with this read between the words bull shit." Warned Zetsuros.
"He has been freed-"
"I'll fucking murder you, WHO IS HE."
"Ok ok ok. I meant to say the dragon of gravity." Granditus said quickly to avoid annoying him any further.
"Are you kidding me, just say his name. For god sakes," said Jude.
"No need I know who he is talking about." Replied Zetsuros.
"Who?" Asked Jude.
"It seems one of my colleagues, as you may say, has been up and running for quite some time now."
"Yet again, who?"
"Asphoras. The supreme, monstrous dragon of gravity." Zetsuros explained.
