Layla, upon witnessing this, drew her sword.
"I guess we are gonna have to beat our Sky out of you. You fake," Layla said as she charged.
"Oh, really, and how are you going to do that?" Red Sky taunted.
"You'll see," Yumeko said, her voice filled with determination as Red Sky laughed.
"Fine, let's do this. If you win, Sky will return. If I win, both of you will bear my children and become my women," Red Sky stated.
"What? No, we haven't agreed to those terms," Yumeko said.
"I don't care. You think I care? I will take what I deserve after beating you two. That weak, pathetic loser doesn't deserve you, but enough talk. Let's fight," Red Sky said as the wind blew in.
"You're on," Yumeko and Layla declared in unison as they prepared for battle.
"Fine," Red Sky conceded, his expression serious. As he roared out, the wind in the city all turned red. "Red Wind Domain."
"What is this?" Yumeko gasped, her senses overwhelmed.
"This is my true power. You are in my domain now, Yumeko. Both you and Layla will be mine. Can you feel your access to Wind slowly draining as your strength is taken away?" Red Sky said, laughing.
"No! This can't be. It can't end like this," Yumeko yelled, her voice filled with frustration.
"Don't worry, Yumeko. We won't lose. We can't," Layla said, her voice filled with resolve.
"She's right. If we give up, then our Sky will not exist. Our Sky is still here fighting," Yumeko whispered, her voice laced with pain.
"I will not have it. This is the power I, the real Sky, has. The power I will use to save the world and destroy the void. No more will I run and hide. I will defeat the void and become the Wind God, and then the strongest of the five," Red Sky said, his voice confident.
"I have to use it, Layla. Protect me while I gather all the normal wind I can. I'm going to use the forbidden technique. I'm going to summon a wind spirit," Yumeko said.
"Okay, but don't expect me to hold him off for long. If you don't hurry, then he'll beat me, and you, and then do whatever sick and twisted things he has planned for us," Layla said.
"I will be quick. Please trust me," Yumeko said.
"Of course," Layla replied as she turned to Red Sky. "You will be fighting me. I'm sure a big strong man like you won't attack a woman like Yumeko while she's preparing to beat you. After all, don't you want to prove to her you can take whatever she throws at you and are truly the strongest?" Layla taunted.
"You're right. I am the strongest. So fine, I will play your game. Come try and beat me, Layla. After all, you can't do anything without wind. While my Red Wind Domain eats the normal wind, you're just a powerless girl. So fight me. Try and beat me," Red Sky said.
"Don't worry, Yumeko. I will buy you the time you need. I will not let him beat me. You will get the time you need," Layla said as she rushed in with a wind-coated slash.
"You won't be beating me," Red Sky taunted, as the slash slowly turned red as the red wind around them ate away at the wind and drained the air.
"Shit, that's bad," Layla gasped out as she panted.
"See, your attack can't even reach me. Yumeko and you should be happy that I'm letting enough wind here so you can breathe. But then again, after this battle, I will take you as my women, so I will need you alive. My beautiful princesses of the wind," Red Sky said as his hands glowed red.
"Red Wind Punch," Red Sky yelled as he launched a punch coated in red wind at Layla, sending her flying.
"No, Layla!" Yumeko yelled, her voice filled with fear.
"It's alright, Yumeko. Just focus on your summoning," Layla yelled as she got up and dusted herself off.
"Why would Yumeko even consider loving a sick twisted fuck like you? I can't believe you think we are above everyone. You're wrong. Yumeko and I are just normal people, and there's nothing wrong with that. Just like Sky, our Sky. I might not love him romantically like Yumeko, but Sky is my brother, and I won't let him die or be stuck in some stupid red aura and replaced by a dick like you. I will get him back," Layla yelled.
"How cute. You think you can stop me. But no matter, let's end this game," Red Sky said as Yumeko let out a small smile, collapsing to the floor, holding her chest.
"Oh, great Spirit Of the Wind, help me. Use my body as a vessel to defeat this evil force," Yumeko said.
"Oh ho ho, Yumeko, let's see the power of this so-called Wind Spirit," Red Sky said as he watched Yumeko's wind aura turn green, making wings appear and a cloak of aura surround her.
"You are the one using this corrupted force and holding an innocent boy hostage. I am the ancient Wind Spirit Sylphira. I am the first user of Wind Aura and the first to teach the humans of the Aeritha Kingdom the way of the Wind," the Spirit said.
"So you're an Ancient Spirit, huh? Well, I have something better. I am the first-ever user of Red Wind and the one who will use the Red Wind to defeat the Void. To become the most powerful being to live," Red Sky declared.
"Hmph, a mere mortal thinks he can beat the Void Queen Yami," Sylphira scoffed. "It seems you mortals have grown more foolish over the centuries, but no matter. I will beat you back until the boy my host loves is back."
"Well, that is an impressive transformation," Red Sky remarked, his voice filled with admiration. "But it's not enough. My Red Wind Domain will still eat away at the normal wind."
"But, mere mortal, this isn't just normal wind. This ancient wind was the purest and strongest wind. Your little red wind doesn't have the power to destroy the purest of winds," the Sylphira declared.
"Really, let's see about that. I am the ultimate form of Sky. My red wind can destroy any wind," Red Sky challenged.
"Then show me," the Sylphira said.
"Very well," Red Sky agreed as the two rushed each other.
"Wind Fist," the Sylphira yelled.
"Red Wind Cloak," Red Sky yelled.
"Hmph, you're weak," the Sylphira said as Red Sky's hand turned green.
"What's happening? What is this feeling?" Red Sky asked, his voice laced with panic.
"This is the power of the wind. The purest of
winds," the Sylphira said as Red Sky's arm was engulfed in the green wind.
"What are you doing to me?" Red Sky demanded, his voice filled with rage.
"Nothing but returning you back to your original form. Once my host's love returns, this body will return back to your original form," Sylphira said.
"No, I won't go back. I refuse to become the weakling who got my mother killed. Who can't protect the ones I love," Red Sky said, his tears falling, but something weird happened; his tears turned red.
"How can you, a Wind Aura user, not a Water Aura user? It can't be your counterpart; he's meant to be the..." Sylphira was cut off as the tears turned into a ball and hit Sylphira, knocking her back.
"It seems it is possible. A mix of my Red Wind and the Red Water Aura," Red Sky said, laughing.
"That's impossible. Someone as evil as you can't be the..." Sylphira was cut off as Red Sky punched her.
"Hush yourself, Spirit. You're not needed," Red Sky said.
"Yumeko..." Sylphira whispered before falling to the ground.
"No, it can't be," Yumeko said, her voice cracking as the green wings faded, and the ancient winds cloak dissipated.
"Oh, goody, now I can finally get to you. I can finally do what I wanted to do since I first met you. Now, lay down and become mine," Red Sky said.
"What is your problem? Why are you such a perverted freak?" Yumeko asked, backing away and hugging herself. "You aren't the Sky I love."
"That is because I'm not the pathetic loser your lover. I'm the strongest version of him. The only one worth anything," Red Sky said, walking forward.
"You're wrong," Yumeko said, standing her ground.
"Oh, really? And how can you prove that?" Red Sky demanded.
"Because the real Sky is still inside you. I know it. That's why you're so obsessed with me. He sees Layla as a sister, but you... you even corrupted that love for your own sick twisted pleasure. You're nothing but a coward who can't deal with his emotions. A pathetic coward," Yumeko shouted.
"Shut up, you're wrong," Red Sky yelled, his voice laced with anger and pain, but suddenly the Red Wind Domain got cracks as the entire domain collapsed.
"Sky! What are you doing to your friend Yumeko?" A familiar voice said as Red Sky turned to the familiar figure with as much hatred as he can.
"Noboru, am I strong enough to be trained now?" Red Sky yelled with hatred at the man who rejected training his counterpart.
"I asked what are you doing to your friend Yumeko, and why is Layla injured?" Noboru said as Yumeko rushed over to Noboru, getting behind him.
"That's not Sky, Noboru. He's some corrupted personality," Yumeko explained.
"I see." Noboru says as his eyes glowed using a ability of Omni Energy manipulation he instantly learned and felt what this red wind was as Omni Energy was the origin of everything and nothing, all power systems. and energy. 'It seems he's using Negative elements. As the name suggest the Negative elements are special derivations of Element these element consume everything i order to be generated including nothingness which is another name for the void. thats how he can negate the Void and if it grows stinger he could potentially negate everything apart from Omni Energy like Laws, Concepts and more hell his wind could even negate reality and consume it."
Don't worry, Yumeko. I will take care of this and bring back your Sky. Go and make sure Layla is okay," Noboru said.
"Okay, but please don't hurt him," Yumeko pleaded.
"Don't worry about it," Noboru said as he turned towards Red Sky. "You might be strong, but compared to me, the power you hold is insignificant. Come, I will show you true power." As he said that, Noboru did a come-at-me gesture with his right hand, angering Red Sky.
"Don't you underestimate me, Noboru," Red Sky roared, his voice filled with rage as he charged at Noboru.
