Chapter 22 - Ink vs Dragon

Noctis, with his imagination, starts moving the large figure to leave outside the circle. The large ink spartan resisted the fireballs and threw his spear at it.

"More, more, more!!" The circles that Noctis created were spawning more and more Ink Spartans. 

Noctis could only spawn twenty Spartan warriors. The Spartans throw spears at the dragon, now causing some scratches along its thick scales. Noctis created a smaller soldier focused on defense to protect him from the fireballs. 

The town was completely engulfed in fire. Noctis, not wanting to give up in a last-ditch effort, used his creativity to merge all of the Spartan soldiers into one mega soldier strong enough to bring the dragon down.

The fight between the dragon and the Spartan began; the dragon started flying around the Spartan, blowing up part of its body, and the Spartan just took the hits, recovering with the ink in the ground.

Noctis imagines the spartan to create large spears around him, the tip with explosive ink. 

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Shriek! Shriek! Shriek!

The dragon managed to dodge a majority of the spears; however, four spears managed to hit their target. Three of the arrows hit the left wing of the dragon, and the last one hit its eye and blew up.

The dragon started to split itself into different forms. The dragons all started to blow the Spartan, causing it to fall. Creating a large shake in the ground, yet Noctis gave his all in modifying the Spartan to stand up and defeat the dragon. 

The Spartan managed to get one of the dragons. It grabs his spear and splits one of the dragons in half. Noticing this, Noctis feels like he is so close to defeating the dragon, yet he still needs one opportunity to beat it.

The spartan starts to grab the dragons and either smashes them to the ground or splits them with his spear. The town is covered in fire, debris, dead bodies, and pieces of dragon scattered throughout the ground. Noctis starts to feel a little sad about his town but is motivated to stop it from destroying it.

"Go Spartan, go now!!" The spartan releases all of its ink inside its body.

Shriek!

All of the dragons were almost killed. The dragons decided to unite back as one now on the floor due to the pain of the attack.

The spartan is no longer there; all of the town is left with particles of ink through the floor. The moon appearing again signifies that this is Noctis' last attempt to eliminate the threat. His body was completely covered in ink to replace the broken bones and limbs from the attack.

The dragon starts to get up slowly; he is raising his wings to go and attack a severely weakened Noctis.

Noctis disappears from where the dragon can see him. The dragon started to panic, throwing fireballs everywhere to try and find Noctis to end him before he ended him.

The night sky is so dull, perfectly masking Noctis's existence; the entire town with the sound and color of fire is the perfect condition for Noctis.

"Here is your death, you fucker!!!" Noctis appears on top of the dragon, aiming for a spot behind its neck that lost its protective shell, leaving it completely exposed to Noctis's ink sword.

Boom!

Shriek!!

AHHH!!

Thud!!

The sword exploded, hitting its main target. The dragon was finally killed. The explosion caused Noctis to fall to the ground with no arms. Using ink to create new arms, his body is half ink, half human. 

"There it all ended. I still have something to do." Noctis imagined that the town was not burning due to his lack of strength to imagine it before the attack due to him wasting everything to kill the dragon. 

Noctis passes out after seeing the town without a single flame in sight, giving a small smile and resting. 

Noctis wakes up to see a large crowd of people surrounding him praying for him to wake up. He wakes up, and the entire town erupts in happiness that their hero is alive. The person who defeated the calamity is alive.

Noctis realizes that he can't move all of the ink that disappeared; deciding to redo the ink again, he becomes functional again. 

Ink goes towards the dead dragon, climbing it and resting, seeing the sky that still looks dull but that dullness warms his heart.

"We did it, Grandma. We saved our town. Now you may rest in peace. Noctis, with tears in his eyes, feels a huge weight in his heart to leave knowing Grandma and saving something she valued so much.

Ink appears back into the room. 

One of the corners of the large central blue star starts to glow a dark purple color. Ink, seeing his spiritual body, doesn't know what will happen, only having a sense of déjà vu.

Ink sees a surge of power leaving his body, taking all of the creative parts of its body and adding them into the second eighth of the star.

The parts of Note remaining of the original are its savior, thirst, and ? aspects of himself.

The new part of Note takes the parts of his savior, creating its new persona, K. .
