Just when things seemed like it was all going well, from the floor surrounding them arose shadow warriors. Shadow warriors were one of the most powerful fighters ever. Their power lied in the shadows, and the most powerful ones had their own shadow arsenal of weapons.
"What the hell!" Jannes shouted. They were completely surrounded on all sides, this was not a good situation to be in.
"What did you think?" a voice said from the shadows. "That we would be caught unawares?" the voice added.
Suddenly, from amongst the shadow warriors came Wallie. On his hands, were two shadow sytche and he looked somewhat different from the original Wallie they all knew. His body was divided into two, one half was shadow while the other half was his regular body.
"Oh, what a dream to think of taking over Tierurus and ruling the carribean. Have you no shame, instead of you Oracles to do your filthy jobs, you admire positions not meant for you" Wallie said menacingly.
" Ha ha ha" Phill laughed
"Do you actually mean those words, I'll advise you not to speak useless words before your deaths" he said. "And where are the others?" he added "When we take care of you, you'll pity those words you just said".
" Won't it be unfair to have weak people rule the carribean?" Sir Philip said coming out from amongst the shadows also.
The oracles looked shocked, and wondered what gave this guy the guys to call them weak.
" Mind your mouth" Yera-Cudra shouted.
" Am I not right, don't you think weak people should not rule" Sir Philip continued.
The oracles finally had a clue to what he was trying to insinuate. He wanted them to have a duel match to see who would rule.
" I want a match" Sir Philip said confirming their thoughts. " The match would decide who is fit to rule, and unfit for the position to serve" Sir Philip added.
" A match would make things a lot easier for us, as they won't be able to even match our strength and power one bit. But... if they know they are not as strong as us, why would they request a match. It would make them lose.... something is not right" Yera-Cudra thought
" So do you agree to this proposition?" Sir Philip asked. At this time, the whole members of The Thirteen had already come out to face the oracles.
A state was held between the Oracles and The Thirteen for a very long time.
" We agree" Yera-Cudra said, " But this is to your own detriment" he added.
" That is nice" Sir Philip said. " It is wise to know the strongest amongst the Oracles and The Thirteen" he added sarcastically.
" What are the rules for the match you proposed, if they are fair to us, we'll go by it, if not, don't bother" Yera-Cudra said firmly.
" The rules are this - Between us, we bring five people to represent the Oracles and The Thirteen. For this match there will be five rounds. This is to ensure that each of the five have the opportunity to we'll use their powers" Sir Philip said.
The Oracles looked at each other for a while before speaking
" Let's change something, power isn't about individual strength, but collective strength. The five from amongst us Oracles will fight against your five chosen together and at once" Yera-Cudra said.
" The winners of the match will take over Tierurus and rule the carribean, the losers die" Yera-Cudra added. " We don't want any burden".
The Thirteen began to mumur amongst themselves, from the look of things, this didn't go well with them.
" What are they even thinking about, they have no chance against us, yet they seek to highly esteem themselves above their capabilities. This will be their doom" Yocubu said to the Oracles.
" It's a deal then, we'll do as you say. Please follow us" Sir Philip said.
They walked into the highest peak of the Pinnacle until they got to a barred room. Punching a set of combinations on the wall, Sir Philip opened the room to a majestic and wide fighting ground.
The place wasn't limited by any bound or rope, this will allowed both teams to fully utilize their abilities to win.
" Please pick your fighters" Sir Philip said. " We'll need to start early" he added.
Selecting their fighters, The Thirteen chose Gaius, Wallie, Ka'Zel, La'Sel and Bryce.
Gaius was a master of dark magic and poison, Wallie was a shadow lord, Ka'Zel was time ability user also adept at using the power of wind. La'Sel was a ghost lord, with the ability to call up past dead spirits to help him in battle, while Bryce was a fire lord. He had already attained Ultimate fire spirit and could use the soul bond character.
The soul bond character was a powerful extension of one's power, more like unlocking the power of your soul in conjunction with the power of your body. Only few people had unlocked the soul bond character, but of course The Thirteen and the Oracles all had it.
The Oracles chose pete, Phil, Jonathan, Merzeel and Yocubu.
The oracles all had the same powers, but what differed was their usage.
" Ne saul batjg" Sir Philip chanted. The spell he casted suddenly took it's effect, as the remaining non participants of the battle were transported into the walls if the room, but could still see the fight clearly.
LET THE FIGHT BEGIN.....
