Chapter 23 - CHAPTER 22: THE UNSEALING OF LORD DARKMANNER!

In desperation, Kane raised up a Dark Five Point Seal. A beam from the Seal flew into the Sky. The Five Point Star, now filled with Darkness shot the beam unto the Dark Star in the Tower. As Kane fell, the Five Points of the Dark Star began to release Dark Mist. Kane disintegrated into the darkness and a circular pool of glass appeared in the centre of the Star. Beneath the transparent ground on which the Star stood was what looked like a whirling shadow.

As the Mist cleared, Darkmanner appeared.

"Finally, after Ten Millenia of rest, I have returned" he said.

Geed watched in horror.

"Isn't this the part where you attack Geedix, my son?" Darkmanner asked.

"So that's my true name. You are different from before" Geed noted.

"I'm waiting Geedix" Darkmanner said.

Geed hesitated. Then he ran towards Darkmanner. All his companions rushed to aid him. Geed threw Fire, Damian Wind, Elaine Water, Diane Rocks, Alice Fire whilst Taros kept hurling bombs. Still, Darkmanner stood in the way and received the elements.

"Is that all you can do? The Spirits are weak in you!" Darkmanner said.

"No way!" Alice exclaimed.

"He survived the combo!" Diane was shocked.

"My turn, DARK WHIRLWIND!" Darkmanner roared as he began to spin.

A huge current of air knocked the companions into the walls of the Tower. They fell to the ground. Geed stood up and faced Darkmanner.

"Where's the Sword Of Light?" Darkmanner asked.

"I'll beat you without it" Geed said with a smile.

"YOU FOOL!" Darkmanner roared and charged at Geed.

Geed charged at Darkmanner and the two clashed in midair. Darkmanner threw a beam of fire. Geed deflected it with his left arm cloaked in a Wind Slicer. Darkmanner attacked again and Geed attempted to block with his right arm however the Wind slashed his shoulder. Geed charged up a Light Beam in his hand. Darkmanner charged a Dark Beam.

"NOVA!" Geed yelled and pushed his arm forward.

Darkmanner responded by pushing his own arm forward and the two elements clashed. The force of the clash knocked both Geed and Darkmanner to the ground.

"Have you been seeking me Geed? You have underestimated me long enough" Darkmanner said.

Geed laughed.

"What's so funny?" Darkmanner asked.

"Nothing, just the thought of you being sealed a second time by me makes me laugh. Were you ever human? What did you intend to turn me into, a demon or devil?" Geed asked.

"You fool!" Darkmanner rushed at Geed, swept him off his feet and shattered the walls of the Tower with Geed. Geed spat out more blood. Geed began to get dizzy. Geed threw Wind at Darkmanner but Darkmanner dispelled the Wind. Then he raised Geed up.

"You are a failure of a Magi, and a failure as my son" Darkmanner said.

"Romanus, Aerobis, they were my fathers. Canine was my friend" Geed said.

"Your promise to Canine has been broken because of your weakness" Darkmanner said as he charged up a ball of Dark Energy and knocked Geed with it.

Geed screamed in pain. When the technique was withdrawn, Geed fell to the ground.

The gems rose and flew into Darkmanner's arms. Darkmanner impaled Geed with the Gems. Geed's vision began to blur as the cold hand of death began to creep over him.
