Six picked his head up and placed it back on his neck.
"Hey, knight. How did you do that?"
Six seemed quite intrigued by how Goldwill had decapitated him.
"I moved."
Goldwill was pretty blunt. I kind of felt bad that he gave Six that answer out of everything else he could have said.
"Wow… Teach me!"
"What-"
"He just asked Goldwill to teach him."
"I don't know, he was decapitated and now seems fascinated."
Six flipped his blade around and tried attacking the captain again. This time his right arm got cut off.
"You're really good at this!"
Six regrew his right arm and smiled joyfully toward Goldwill.
Goldwill on the other hand wasn't very amused by Six's antics and wanted to end this quickly.
||SHADOW WORLD||
Six activated [Shadow World] and created a swarm of dark entities. They all started rushing toward Goldwill as he swung his buster sword around rapidly. The shadowy figures getting cut in half at alarmingly fast rates.
I saw Six jump into the mix and immediately get decapitated again.
He looked like he was having fun.
"What? No. I don't have a death wish."
I was now sitting on the ledge of the building eating popcorn. I mean it was just made to resemble popcorn, but it was just another part of my body. I then made those cheap paper-like red and blue 3D glasses and put them on.
"Go Six! You got this!"
He stood no chance.
Six reattached his head again and cracked his neck.
||SHADOW SURF||
His feet sunk into the floor again and he began to rapidly dart around the plaza. After a little bit of gaining speed, he started sliding on the walls of buildings. Six leaned back and pushed his hand against the shadows making them vibrate as these long tentacle-like things emerged.
"I believe in you Six!"
I was lying.
"Of course. Why wouldn't I?"
<...>
Four started to wake up as he grabbed his head. He looked behind him to see Six gone.
"Huh?"
"Ode where did Six go-"
He turned toward the screen to see Six fighting.
"OH WHAT THE FUCK!"
"We tried offering it to you. You fell asleep."
"You could have woken me up!"
"..."
"I'll pass."
"What? No."
"I'm not. It's just that I'd much rather living."
I shrugged and took my glasses off.
"Well I guess we do need to change something up…"
"Six! I'll supply cover fire, you go in there and deal some damage."
"Got it-"
The buster sword flew through the air and pierced Six's torso. Slamming into the building behind him and pinning him there.
"R… re…ally?"
Goldwill jumped up and pulled the sword out, he then flipped around and body slammed Six into the ground.
My eye started twitching a little.
"..."
"I think I would rather… uh. Not feel that."
Fuck… he'll do it to me next anyway if I do nothing.
||VOCALIZE||
I turned it up to create a loud high pitched shriek. Goldwill winced for a split second and then turned toward me.
"Huh… well…"
||SWORD BOLT||
I created and threw a sword at full force. Goldwill stepped out of the way and the sword pierced Six's body instead.
"Ah- my bad…"
That looked like it hurt…
"You want to try Four?"
Six absorbed the sword that was stuck in his body and stood up again. He was slowly starting to regenerate, but he looked absolutely fucked up.
||FIREBALL; MODIFICATION, PURPLE FLAMES OF HELL||
I welled up a few fireballs, I sent two out while I kept a third one next to me. One of the fireballs exploded behind Goldwill as he ran out of the way and the other he split in half. I then increased the acceleration of the third fireball. Causing it to nearly lose control in my hand, I threw it toward Goldwill… it disappeared and suddenly he burst into purple flames.
Six ran up to him and sliced behind his knees making him fall to the ground.
"Six one more!"
Six turned back around for another solid slash. Aiming right for Goldwill's neck. The blade slammed into it… and ricocheted back just as quickly. It was as if Goldwill's neck was made of steel.
"Wha-"
He then pulled two of these stick-like things from his coat and snapped them. His knees healing instantly and the fire being extinguished. Goldwill stood up and cut Six down again in a flash.
"Can't you- just go down already…?!"
I jumped down from the second story and rushed into Goldwill. I made a new sword and sliced at him. He blocked and went for a counter. Six then got up again and tried to get a sneak attack in. Goldwill turned and blocked him instead.
Six and I were too much of amateurs. We couldn't beat him.
We quickly backed up, making distance between us and him.
"How the hell do we beat him?"
"Did you try apologizing?"
…
"What…?"
Six turned toward me and let his guard down.
"Did you try apologizing to him yet?"
I stared at him blankly.
"Are you stupid?"
"Well if we can't beat him in a fight, we could try morals. He's the 'justice' and 'chivalric' type right?"
"Yeah… but I think we're too into this to do that now…"
"Nah- just watch."
"Hey mister knight captain! I just wanted to say that we apologize-"
Goldwill appeared in front of him and cut his arms off. He then swung the buster sword around cutting Six vertically, and then again diagonally.
"See I told you."
"..."
||TELEPORT||
I teleported to the other side of the plaza.
sigh
I looked up into the dark cloudy sky.
When I looked closer I saw a little red… meteorite?
Wait- no…
That's a spell-!
I teleported up and to the left about a hundred feet as it slammed into another house around the plaza. Smoke clouding over the city.
||FLIGHT||
The wind picked up… a little too much-
Wait-
Is that a tornado?!
I looked down to see Goldwill holding himself in place with his sword. Six on the other hand was sucked up and spun around in the tornado.
The wind abruptly cut out and Six fell into the central fountain. On the other side was Esther.
"Hey Cyn!"
"Esther?!"
"Need some help~?"
She smiled at me. I couldn't really say no either since Six had been getting his ass whooped for a solid ten minutes. On top of that I couldn't handle Goldwill alone.
"Yeah, quite badly."
"I'll supply cover fire. You get in there with that other guy."
"Other guy?"
She looked at me like I was dumb.
"The one in all black."
"Oh- you mean Six?"
She nodded subtly.
"Only 'try'?"
I could tell by his words that he was shrugging.
"Alright let's do this then!"
||WATER SHOT||
I lined up a number of [Water Shot]'s in the air before disappearing. I was trying to get into his blind spot, a dark spot near one of the buildings behind him. Then I launched the spell downward toward him, he cut about half of them while two or three hit. I rushed in changing my arms into chainsaws, Goldwill noticed and went to counter. Sadly for him though there were now three of us.
Esther's [Lightning Chain] and [Explosion] combo spell hit his back making his footing go off-balance long enough for me to get a solid diagonal strike on chest.
The captain quickly recovered and slammed the base of his hilt into the side of my face sending me flying back into a building.
"Ow…"
"I mean fair… but- wait what about your callouts?!"
"That's a little late Ode…"
The chainsaws dissipated back into my arms and I saw Six getting out of the fountain.
"Shit… nothing we have is working."
"Six! Esther! Buy me five minutes. I'll guarantee us a win."
