As Lars channeld his ether, the outside of his body began to glow and pulse with a faint blue light. A torrent of water pulsed behind him as he eyed Jonah down.
"Allow me to show you..." Jonah said. "The truth of my invisibility!"
With a snap of his fingers, Jonah revealed a laege black veil behind him of that seemed like a giant black cloth. Inside of the cloth, red eyes appeared staring down Lars from affar.
"It's pointless" A voice from inside the veil said.
"We all die in the end." Another siad.
"So...." Lars said sadly. "That's the reason you are so nhilistic... their are voices telling you all this."
"That's right" Jonah said." They have been with me all my life! And now they will follow you to the next!"
"Ark of Jonah!" Jonah cried
Releasing a giant wave of black souls from his hands a stream of energy erupted towards Lars.
As he closed his eyes in preparation to counterattack Lars recalled a memory
(2 weeks ago)
"So... 6" Lars said eyeing down the wooden board in the gym room. He had managed to flood the entier building but still hadn't broken the board.
"Why did that happen?" Lars asked. "I gathered all the ether in one spot.. but it just went everywhere!"
"Well... yeh..." 6 said. "You gathered it in one spot but then released it everywhere!"
"But why didn't it all focus the same place? I aimed it all at the same point?"
"Axel! You've had your powers for one day! do you really think you can handle 100% of your concentrated ether? Start small, even Captains can only focus about 50% at a time!"
"What! A captain is only 50%? What can a general do then!"
"A General... depending on the branch, can channel over 150%" 6 answered.
"What! How is that possible!" Lars exclaimed.
"Don't worry about that! For now jus focus on 20% that should be more than enough! You almost flooded the school with 100!"
(Back to present
"So... 20% huh?" Lars thought. "Lets try... 30!"
As his ether began to focus a ring of water appeared in front of his hands.
"Impossible!" Lance remarked. "His ether is so strong is visible! He must be at atleast 30%!"
"I have a feeling were going to need a towel after this yo..." Reggie remarked.
"AXEL! Your doing it!" 6 cheered.
"GEt em Baby blue!" B said.
"WATER!..." Lars blanked out
"Oh shoot! I never came up with a name!"
"Water 30% Attack!" Lars cried.
BOOOM!
His huge cone of water connected with Jonah's. As they began to struggle, Lars's atttack slowly overtook his opponent
"WHAT! Impossible! I'm going to be defeated with an attack of such a wretched name!"
"That name was lame yo!" Reggie laughed. "Stick to the Pocket monster names!"
"His is it!" LArs said firing through. "It's over!"
BOOOM!
Jonah was knocked back against the wall blown back by the water attack. As the attack came close to knocking him out a golden string emenated from his head.
The string moved up Lars's water before connected to his head showing him a memory.
(Jonah's memory)
"Mama... I hear voices..." kid Jonah
"Don't worry, its all in your head..." (Jonah's mom.)
(Back to present)
"What was that?" Lars said. " His memory?"
As Jonah crashed to the ground, the dark souls slowly disappeared behind him. Lars approached him with the rest of his freinds, as they proceeded to go after Eiham.
"Your childhood... must have been horrible... Hearing those voices at such a young age... but that doesn't mean you have to listen to what they say! You can determine your own fate!"
"Listen child." Jonah said. "As a boy I heard voices all around me many times they would attack people I loved or destroy my personal items.... I tried to talk to people... they all said the same thing..."
"Your depressed."
"You need help"
"It's all in your mind!"
"Then one day A voice told me something horrible... it told me that my parents were going to die... I tried to warn them but.... they didn't listen, and in the end a rogue shifter killed them in the middle of the night."
"From that day forward I finally became able to see the invisible voices, and the bodies they were attached to... and became able to go invisible myself. I kept an umbrella around me because my skin became light sensitive after becoming invisible for so long."
"I'm sorry.." Lars said.
"Don't pity me, from that day forward I listened to the voices, they warned me when trouble was afoot, and protected me from death... they also are able to hear the souls of other people, I can hear your soul now calling out, it is fragmented."
"Fragmented?" Lars asked.
"There is a power in you, one that was lost long ago that lies dormant, a power... that you will one day be chased to the end of the earths for..."
"Is that... what the man in black is after?" Lars said.
"No, he is after what is in that box... the voices told me of his arrival, and instead of fightin ghim off, I sought him out."
"What are you guys talking about?" Lance interjected. "What power! What man in black?"
"The light of the father lies within that boy" Jonah said. "And as long as he lives...there is another who will die... My master is almost upon us... it won't be long now before.... ugh"
Jonah passed out before he could finish his words.
"Cmon Axel!" The others cried. "We have to stop Eiham!"
Lars turned around, as he felt the presence of someone looking down at him.
"What are you doing! Lets go!" they cried.
"Coming" Lars said.
In the darkness the man in black looked over Lars and the others. "Well done Jonah" The man in black said to himself. "I have used up to much ether in Transporting myself here... IF you hadn't weakend them... I would have been forced to do something formidable"
As Lars and friends entered the final room a red glow emenated from where Eiham was standing.
"This... is it?" Eiham said. "I don't understand... its just a chip... a computer processing component... how can this be a weapon?"
"Stop right there Eiham!" Lars cried.
Eiham turned around and found Lars's company behind him.
"Hand over the pandora!" Lars demanded.
"No..." Eiham said. " i may not know what this is, but whatever it is it's important! The humans are after this Maybe if I put it in a computer..."
ZAP!
"OUCH!" Eiham cried
as he reached out to touch the chip his hand was zapped by a red electricity.
"An ethereal barrier... blasted! I don't have time to break it apart!" He groaned
"Give up Long nose!" Regie said
"Yeh we've got you surrounded!" 6 said.
"Don't make this harder than it needs to be" Lance said.
"Hmph" Eiham said slamming his pole down. "One opponent ten or fifty! It makes no difference to me!"
As he slammed his pole down, a cloud of ether appeared behind him nearly the size of collosus. As it wapred and took form a giant Mummy with golden skin and giant fists appeared behind him. As his energy began to surge, the Mumy became wrapped in armor, taking the appereance of an Egyptian pharoah. Soon the cornenered eiham had all 5 shifters corenered with his gigantic avatar.
"Let me show you why they call me the pharaoh of the badlands!" HE creid.
"The secrets of the Pandora are mine and mine alone!"
