During the night, the baby struggled to contain something within it. It knew if whatever was inside it got released. It would terrorize this land that its father called home.
Rex sensing something amiss woke up. He looked at his sorrowful child. Sensing a primal terror within his child, Rex quickly grabbed it and left.
Instead of using the door, he made a huge noise and went through the wall. This startled everyone else. They began to search for what happened.
It was not until someone went outside that they realized that death truly makes one fear. The other women went out as well. When all of them felt it, they understood that Rex had already felt it.
"Be safe." The women prayed together.
Reaching a vast plain, Rex sat his child down. He knew the words were going to hurt his child. It would not hurt for long, he hoped.
"My child, I know that this is unbearable. It is fine to release whatever is inside of you currently. You can watch as your father fights with everything he has." Rex said patting his child.
Tears of pain, happiness, suffering, and joy all flowed out of the child at the same time. No matter what happened, the child seemed to believe in Rex.
When the child stopped resisting. A massive crocodile like creature exited the baby. A single roar was enough to shake every Realm and almost wake the dead.
Rex transformed into his Demon King of Will form. This was because he wanted to match this creature. It was the move. No matter how much the crocodile creature gained power. Rex was unable to match it. This surprised him greatly.
Using everything he had. Red began to fight. The crocodile ended up falling several times within an hour. After that, Rex was constantly pushing to keep himself from being destroyed.
The war between the two was nothing but a one-sided beat down after three hours. Rex could not hear or gain power quickly to change this fact.
After the hours had passed, Rex finally decided to forget the Will form and just go to Annihilation form. The duo got on equal terms.
The baby tried to cheer for its father. Something kept it from doing so, and thus it cried. The crocodile creature roared in anger because the child was crying.
Rex kicked the lower jaw up to shut the crocodile beast up for just a minute. Rex grabbed his child and placed him on his head. In the midst of his horns, Rex's child was actually happy to be right there. The baby granted his father a tiny amount of his Shadow. The crocodile was pushed back this time.
The two entered into a stalemate. Rex was getting physically and mentally exhausted. The child knew that his father was. That was because the crocodile kept forcing the Shadow power that Rex's child was giving to its father. This was more stressful than even most of his stressful times before.
The stalemate went on until the crocodile felt a surge of Shadow Power far away. This made it feel afraid. It had never felt this afraid before.
The crocodile felt the days go by and now that the thing it feared was ready for battle. It knew the time for a true battle was up. It tried to instantly kill the baby and humanoid in front it.
Only to find that the humanoid began to feel the shadows around it. A hand made up of shadows stopped the massive attack. Another hand grabbed the torso of the crocodile.
Rex tried his best to hold the crocodile in place. He felt that the Shadow Nine Tailed Fox was truly coming. He did not know how long it would be.
He planned to use all of his current strength to hold the crocodile in place. Rex burned through his normal Qi as well. Using Earth Qi to keep the crocodile in place, Holy Qi to pierce through the shadows, Dark Qi to keep himself from falling over, and Water Qi to prepare a massive attack when the Holy Qi peirce through.
Just before the Shadow Nine Tailed Fox appeared. A small wound appeared and Rex used his remaining strength to force the wound to open wide with his Water Qi.
A wound the size of a 22 caliber bullet became the size of 30-06 caliber bullet. Rex forced a pressure of nearly three explosions into a stream of Water Qi inside the hole.
The crocodile roared in anguish because it had never felt this kind of pain before. Has Rex finally used the last of his Qi and Willpower. The Shadow Nine Tailed Fox showed up and ripped the crocodile to shreds. The child got to watch as his mother displayed huge carnage power as the shadows were torn apart and the crocodile died.
The Main Core of the Shadow Ability seemed to find a way out of the Third Realm. The child tried to call back that power. Only to find that it was not strong enough.
The Shadow Nine Tailed Fox helped her child regain that power. The baby safely stored it away and would forever keep that power under wraps.
Meanwhile
The Frozen Flame of Age seemed to grow a little anxious. This caused the demon woman controlling it to become somewhat anxious herself.
The Pink Flame of Cleansing also seemed anxious. The male controlling it did not seem to care.
Above them, a drop of black goo dropped. The Pink Flame of Cleansing flared up. This caused the first drop of goo to be vanquished.
Before the two could respond, they sensed a danger coming in from afar. The male seemed to coat themselves in the Pink Flame of Cleansing.
This was his attempt to protect not only him but his wife as well. The duo felt despair when a black substance tried to invade the Pink Flame of Cleansing.
The wife seemed to notice that the substance wanted to provide a power greater than that of the Demon King. This caused her to allow her guard to drop and the substance entire her pores.
When it die, the husband felt his flame being drained. He tried to hold on. He held the Flame of Cleansing deep within himself. This was to ultimately protect him. He allowed the substance to enter only to be burned away.
The wife froze the substance inside of her. This was to try something new. They were afraid that the Pink Flame of Rejuvenation would come to cleanse them of their flame.
This started the Shadow People to get a hold in the Nine Realms. It would be a mistake that the Shadow People would forever regret doing.
