Chapter 48 - Habakkuk’s Anger! Laci’s Awakening! And The Unexpected Rescue!!

When Habakkuk slashed at Geyla, a green claw shaped aura was sent out. Geyla quickly dodged the attack.

Habakkuk swiped again at Murgo, who chose to block the attack with his arm.

Murgo:I feel a different vibe coming from you, now the fight will be even more interesting boy!!

Murgo would throw him off with pure force, sending Habakkuk high into the air.

Habakkuk dashes back to the ground, he would fire multiple green blasts out of his mouth.

Murgo and Geyla dodged the attacks, but Habakkuk appeared behind them with an even bigger blast.

Murgo:What The?!

Geyla:Hell?!!

The blast would be fired, but Murgo blocked it.

Geyla:That was a close one.

Murgo:We're way better than this!

Habakkuk jumped onto Murgo, Murgo would elbow him into the ground.

Geyla:His power is fascinating…

Murgo:Yes, this new personality intrigues me.

Murgo would knee Habakkuk in the gut and punch him into a building.

Murgo:Time to test how strong you really are!!

Murgo would punch the ground, and pull out a huge boulder the size of 3 schools put into one. Murgo was now holding it in the air with one hand.

Habakkuk dashes out of the building.

Murgo:He'd easily break a puny pebble like this, let me enhance it with my energy.

Murgo would make an Orange aura go around the huge ball of rock.

Murgo:Here Take This!!!

Murgo would shoot the huge boulder at Habakkuk. Habakkuk tried to destroy it with a mouth blast but it didn't work. The huge boulder would engulf Habakkuk.

Laci:Nooo!!!

Laci would shoot multiple heart blasts at it, but it did nothing.

Laci:Damn it! Why am I so useless when it comes to situations like this?!! I'm not about to sit here and let them take him, I'm going to get him out of there! Then we'll escape, I'll train with him and Kayla, and we'll all come back even stronger!

Laci's blasts were still doing nothing to Murgo.

Laci:Maybe I'll have to take it out from the main source!

Laci attacked Murgo with everything she's got.

Murgo easily anticipated her movements while still holding Habakkuk in the boulder.

Laci:I have to do something better, at this rate we're going now, Habakkuk will be crushed!!

Laci fires multiple gigantic hearts at Murgo, Murgo easily blocked the blasts with his hand.

Laci:Damn it, that didn't work either! Wait a second!

Laci would make a liquidy black substance out of her hand and fire it onto Murgo's arms.

Laci:Black Bands!!

Murgo:Clever…

The substance would turn into tar like goo acting as cuffs to keep Murgo from using his powers.

Laci:Now I gotta hurry!

Laci fires a pink heart flare onto Murgo's face to blind him while she saves Habakkuk.

Laci:Reading more about bending energy, and Habakkuk's comic book YouTube channel that he subscribed to really helps out.

Geyla:You better hope your reading worked because Murgo is way stronger than that.

Laci:What?! I'll do the same to you just to test that, right after I save my best friend!!

Murgo pulls the bands off of him.

Murgo:Nonsense… you got in my way so I'll be taking you down.

Laci:Damn, she was right about him! What am I supposed to do now?!

Murgo:Over Here Little Girl!

Murgo appeared behind Laci and knocked her to the ground with a heavy force push, that sent her caving into the ground.

Laci was in heavy pain as she was on the ground with the wind knocked out of her. Murgo would still apply force on her as he worsened it more for Habakkuk.

It's a pitch black void and Laci's floating there on her back.

Laci:I can't let him do this to Habakkuk! If I sit here and do nothing, Habakkuk will die. What kind of best friend will I be if I let him die?! I know he'd give it his all and more just to save me, so I'll do the exact same no matter what!! Habakkuk I'm gonna save you, NO I WILL SAVE YOU!!!

Suddenly Laci's body would lift itself back up even with the force being blown on her. Her eyes would glow orange and her hair became a pale amber color rather than being dark brown. She would also have a white and yellow glow around her.

Laci:I'm not Going to give up on him!!

Murgo and Geyla were stunned.

Laci:Habakkuk this time I will save you!

Laci appeared above Murgo with a heavy punch to the face sending him to the ground. She would then dash at him as he was scraping against the ground. Laci would kick him high into the air, then she would appear by him and would proceed to then knock him around like a pinball.

Laci would grab him by his arm and slammed him down to the ground very hard, making a giant crater.

Laci:I'm done with being the useless one on the team, I'm going to matter too. I'll do that by beating you myself!!

A yellow glow would go around Laci as she charged up something big in her hands. Her eyes would glow even more orange as her hair was starting to turn a greyish color.

Laci:EAT THIS!! THIS MY POWER I FORGED FOR MY BEST FRIEND!! LIGHTNING SPEAR!!!

Laci would fire a shiny gold spear made out of her aura.

Murgo:This energy feels different than just a few moments ago, she evolved again in such a short amount of time!! I'll admit I was letting her knock me around earlier but now this is a real fight!

Murgo tried to power up but the spear went right in his stomach, making him cough blood.

Murgo:Ugh! This light… it burns more than anything I've ever felt! What is this power?!!

Laci:Explode!!!

The light spear would explode as it was still pierced through Murgo's gut.

Murgo:Aaaaaaaaghhh!!!!

The explosion went off and what can be seen was a giant gold heart where Murgo was at.

Geyla:That power… it was something I've never even seen before. Perhaps I can absorb her powers as well.

Murgo was laying there on the ground on his stomach.

Laci:I did it…

Habakkuk was out of the boulder but still in his first state berserk form trying to control himself.

Murgo was gone, Laci was sitting there panting as she was tired. Murgo appears behind her and, knees her in the back. He would then appear in front of her blowing her back with force, before slamming her to the ground with it. He would then kick her in the ribs, only for her to roll over coughing blood. He would then grab her by the face and slammed her into the ground over and over again until he punches her back down to the ground.

Murgo:I must admit, your power was quite impressive but not good enough to finish me. Now I'll show you my gratitude by executing you right off the spot.

Geyla:Her power reached extremely high levels and was even able to push Murgo. Just what is she?...

Murgo would throw Laci into the air and would fire a strong red blast at her. Habakkuk would quickly appear catching her before it hit. They would both land back on the ground, with Habakkuk putting Laci down.

Habakkuk's eyes were brownish green and his claws were gone, but he had small fangs and kinda spiky hair. Habakkuk was now in the restrained berserker state like the time he did it against James or when Sethnos displayed it.

Murgo:He changed again… he may not be berserk, but I can very well sense his violent nature.

Habakkuk:Y-You bastard, I'm going to make you pay for what you have done!!

Habakkuk dashes at a surprise Murgo with a heavy punch to the jaw. Murgo goes flying thousands of feet away, flying through buildings and rocks.

Habakkuk:I'm not done yet!!

Habakkuk would run at Geyla with intense speeds.

Habakkuk and Geyla were now swapping hands.

Geyla:Do you think that this power can really stop us?!

Habakkuk:No I think it can do more than that!!

Habakkuk would clap his hands in her face making a green flash go off in her eyes.

Geyla:What the?!

Habakkuk appeared above her with an elbow to the head. Geyla falls to the ground, but she would catch herself mid fall.

Murgo comes dashing back in mid air with dragon shaped fiery aura wings.

Habakkuk:What the hell?! You can fly?!

Murgo:Another advantage I have over you!

Habakkuk spits on the ground.

Habakkuk:So what if you have your little fairy wings, that just means I have to clip them off and then kick your ass.

Murgo:Such overconfidence will be your downfall, but I'll play along. Allow me to strip away that confidence!

Habakkuk:Go ahead and try that shit!!

The two of them dashed at each other but Murgo flew at Habakkuk.

Habakkuk jumped into the air and started to go at it with Murgo, hitting each other blow for blow.

Habakkuk started to increase his speed and power as he attacked Murgo. Murgo was dodging all of his attacks and knees him in the gut. Murgo would then spin around and hit Habakkuk with his flame wings. Habakkuk goes flying to the ground, but Murgo stopped him with a force push from his mouth. Habakkuk goes flying into the sky and Murgo was above him.

Habakkuk:What the hell?! When did he get there?!

Habakkuk tried to punch Murgo, but he disappeared.

Habakkuk:You cheap Bastarddd!!! Where the hell are you bitch?!!

Murgo appears in front of Habakkuk with a heavy knee to the face. Habakkuk goes crashing to the ground, causing an explosion.

Murgo walks up to Habakkuk

Habakkuk:Damn you...Damn You!!!

Habakkuk charges at Murgo, but Murgo would do a backflip into the air jump onto Habakkuk's back, sending him into the ground.

Habakkuk coughs up a lot of blood.

Habakkuk:Aaaaghhh!!!

Murgo would lift Habakkuk into the air with his Telekinesis and slam him around.

Murgo would grab a few pieces of grass, and he blew it at Habakkuk.

Habakkuk:What the hell is grass supposed to do?!

The grass went flying at Habakkuk, cutting him up on his arms and face.

Habakkuk:What kind of grass is this?!!

Murgo:The Kind that rips you apart!!

Murgo would swing his arm around in circles as it was high in the air.

Habakkuk:What the hell are you doing?!! What are you a dancer?!

The clouds would become dark, rain would start to pour on Habakkuk, causing his body to be wet.

Murgo:Now for my technique!

Habakkuk:So your technique is to get me wet? You bastard!

Murgo:Fool, I can change the temperature of the air in an instant.

Habakkuk:I don't get why you poured water on me weirdo!!

Murgo:Hmph

Murgo would blow at Habakkuk, as he did this, the water started to turn into ice.

Habakkuk:What the?!! No let me go you coward!!! Fight me like a Man!!!

Murgo:Too late…

Habakkuk was now trapped inside of an ice cube.

Murgo would levitate the ice cube and throw it into a nearby river.

Murgo:Let's see him get out of that.

The cube was falling in the water, Habakkuk was trapped but he wasn't done yet. The ice started to melt from Habakkuk's Burning Berserker Energy.

Geyla:Oh you used that power huh? Temperature manipulation…

Murgo:It's a good technique to use on weaker opponents.

Geyla:That I can see.

A green light of energy can be seen dashing out of the river. The light dashed at Murgo in super speeds.

Murgo:So he got out…

Habakkuk:Take this!!!

Habakkuk shot multiple energy blasts at Murgo, but Murgo easily dodged.

Habakkuk:According to plan!

Another Habakkuk appeared behind Murgo and knocked him into the energy blasts. Then both Habakkuk's fired their blast barrages at Murgo.

Geyla:He made a clone? I didn't see that!

Habakkuk:Ready?!

Other Habakkuk:Let's blow this bastard into bits!!

They both raised their hands in the air, as a huge wall of green energy was underground moving to the surface. The ground was shaking and glowing green. Then it erupted like a volcano, a huge green blasts with the width of a house came shooting out at Murgo.

Geyla and Murgo:What the?!!

Murgo would fire a blast out of his mouth pushing it back.

Habakkuk:And This Is Where It Ends!!!

Habakkuk absorbs the clone and jumps into the green blast of energy.

Geyla:Huh?!

Habakkuk crosses his arms and would charge up some of that energy.

Habakkuk smirked.

Geyla:He's gone!!

Habakkuk appeared around Murgo with his body enveloped in green energy. Habakkuk goes crashing into Murgo's back with all ten fingers.

Habakkuk:NOW TAKE THIS!!!! GATE FLAMES EXPLOSION!!!!

THE WHOLE AREA AROUND MURGO WOULD EXPLODE AS HABAKKUK RELEASED THE FLAMES OF THE GATE.

Geyla:This power?!! It's amazing, I didn't know he had all of this in him!!

Laci and the others went flying back.

The explosion and dust cleared, and there was a huge hole in the ground.

Habakkuk:That should've at least did something to the bastard…

Habakkuk was standing there panting.

Geyla:Did that actually work?!!

A ball of purple energy can be seen in the air.

Geyla:No, typical Murgo playing with his enemies.

Habakkuk:Damn it a stupid force field!!!

Murgo landed on the ground.

Murgo:I've got to say, that was impressive. You almost had me for a second, now let me show you another trick!

Habakkuk:How dare you?!!

Murgo dashes at Habakkuk, with the tips of his fingers glowing purple. Habakkuk dashes at Murgo as well, but Murgo would Tap Habakkuk's head and Habakkuk was in an illusion where he was fighting Murgo. But in this illusion the more he fights the enemy, the stronger the enemy gets. Habakkuk was fighting a losing battle on the inside and on the outside he was punching and kicking the air.

Geyla:You caught him in your ultimate illusion, what a good way to torture him.

Murgo:Indeed it is…

Habakkuk:You won't get away from me, you bastard!!! I'm going to beat you! No I'm going to kill you!! No!!! I'M GOING TO RIP YOU APART!!!!

Habakkuk's aura was turning a sinister black and lime green, his hair was turning spikier, his fangs and claws were now present again, his eyes were glowing lime green, and he began to look even more muscular and monstrous than before. Habakkuk reached the second state of berserker, the form Sethnos used against him. And now he was closing in on the third state as his green aura was covering the area he was at. The ground was shaking really bad too, with cracks forming.

The sky started to turn dark...

Geyla:He's transforming even more monstrous than before!!! His power is starting to get out of control.

Laci:Habakkuk what's happened to you?!!!

The others were shocked to see this go on.

Murgo:At this rate, he can shatter the ultimate illusion!! I'm ending this now!!!

Matt was still on the ground injured.

Laci:He's turning into a monster!!

Chris:This power looks too uncontrollable!

Izaya:I can't even approach this!!

Geyla:He needs to be stopped before his power grows any further!!! If that happens then he can surpass even Murgo and I!!

Laci:Habakkuk Wake up!!! You're going to destroy everything!!!

Murgo dashes at Habakkuk trying to hit Habakkuk's head so he can't get out of the illusion. Suddenly Habakkuk grabs his hand.

Murgo:But How?! He must've already broken out of my ultimate Illusion!!!

Habakkuk charged a huge green mouth blast preparing to eradicate Murgo. Suddenly Murgo would cock his hand back, charging up purple aura into that hand. He would chop Habakkuk in the side of his neck so hard that the green energy would disappear and Habakkuk turned back into his normal form and fell to the ground unconscious.

Murgo flew into the air with an icy blue aura around him.

Murgo:NOW IT'S TIME TO FINISH THIS!!!

Murgo charged up a Gigantic blue energy ball strong enough to wipe out several stars!!! The ground was shaking viciously!! The buildings were starting to collapse and the water was starting to rise into the air turning into giant ice spears aiming at everyone on the ground. The sky would turn back blue and the temperature was dropping as snow started to fall.

Laci was holding Habakkuk tight.

Laci:I guess this is the end, Habakkuk I wish you were able to do something about this one.

Laci started to cry out loud!

Izaya and Chris was guarding Matt as they in their fighting stance ready to try to stop Murgo.

Izaya:I'm not giving up, I'm going to go out fighting!!!

Chris:I would rather run, but I'll stay just so I can say I died trying!!

Tears was coming from Chris's eyes.

Geyla flew into the air where Murgo was at.

Geyla:Looks like it's the end.

Murgo:PRECISELY!!!

MURGO FIRES THE BLAST AND THE BARRAGE OF ICE SPEARS!!!

LACI GRABBED HABAKKUK EVEN TIGHTER AND CRIED.

IZAYA:I'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING!!!

CHRIS:I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!

THE BLAST WAS GETTING CLOSER BY THE SECOND.

All was lost…

BUT SUDDENLY A WHITE LIGHT CAN BE SEEN CRASHING INTO THE BLAST AND ICE SPEARS!!! THE BLAST GOES FLYING INTO SPACE AND THE ICE WAS MELTED!!!

MURGO:WHAT THE?!!

GEYLA:NO!!

IT WAS DANA!!!

DANA:HABAKKUK I'M HERE TO SAVE YOU!!!

Everyone was relieved and shocked.

Chris fell to the ground sweating.

Another light would come from the left, and the other from the right!

Two energy both red and blue would send Geyla and Murgo to the ground.

Two boys can be seen standing there. One boy had a dark sinister blue like aura with chains, grey hair and glowing blue eyes. It was NAKIR!!

The other boy had red aura, spiky dark red hair, glowing red eyes, and two bright red glowing swords made from his aura. It was ADRON!!

Adron:Hey guys, long time no see...

Nakir:So you must be the ones I'm going to kill. Laci which one of them touched you?!

Laci was shocked and all she could do was point at Murgo.

Nakir:Oh really? Good because I don't like the way he looks, I'm going to make him suffer for what he's done to you!!
