�No!! This should not have happened.� Kynoto said, a heat of anger rose in his voice. Then he felt something. He felt Knifes disappear completely. Kynoto could not feel his energy anywhere. This, however, had also Kynotoishi lost for words. Kynoto flew back to the battle scene where he saw what he feared.
�Ha..Hahahahahaha! Is this your savior Kynoto? Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Look Kynoto, look at your last hope as it dies. Then witness your own destruction. Hahaaha! Shouted Kynotoishi, an insane laughing ringing in every word he spoke.
�No, h-how could this have happened. He was the chosen one that the prophecy spoke of. Were the prophecies truly wrong?� Kynoto said in disbelieve. Kynoto was now faced with a serious problem. If the prophecies were wrong, then the destruction of the planet was unavoidable, but he, as Knifes, was not going to accept this fate set before him. He made his decision. He was going to fight for the planet with Kynotoishi. Kynoto's anger instantly flared up from no where and with it came a tremendous amount power. Enough to catch Kynotoishis� attention.
�Eh, what�s this?? Where did he get that power from? What is he??!! His power is greater then even mine. H-How is that possible?? Ahhhh, I know. You, Kynoto, are feeding off of your anger. Well two can play this game.� Kynotoishi said, a tone of agonizing disbelief in his voice, as he began to power up. Kynoto and Kynotoishi were evenly matched in everyway, but that is how it had to be, since Kynotoishi was a clone of Kynoto. Both of them knew that this would be the final confrontation and that one of them was going to die, but as for which one was going to die they could not say.
�It appears that we are as the same as same can be, yet we are different.� Said Kynoto, as he said this Kynotoishi looked at him in confusion.
�What do you mean?� he asked looking completely mystified.
�I mean this!� Kynoto said as a burst of energy came to Kynoto, �Even though you are a clone of me, the original is always better, so therefore, you are weaker then me!!� Kynoto half said half shouted as hi power level rose at a dramatic rate. Kynoto was now much stronger then Kynotoishi had ever anticipated. Then something happened that no one had expected. In distraction, Kynotoishi, having forgotten that Knifes had not been killed, let out a joyous yell, turned and dealt a killing blow to Knifes, who had just reappeared behind Kynotoishi.
�Hahaha, now Knifes energy is mine!� Kynotoishi yelled joyously as he went to take Knifes energy. Kynoto could not believe that Knifes was killed in one hit. �Wow, he has lots of energy doesn�t he. Its only � gone and I have tripled my power. Hmmm, this should do it.� Kynotoishi said, shaking with mirth. Kynoto then noticed something. Knifes still had some energy, but at the time he thought nothing of it. �Dark Spirits of Death!� Kynotoishi yelled.
� Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!� Kynoto screamed in agony as this attack hit him. It drained his strength so fast that Kynoto had no chance to retaliate. Then he sensed some movement from Knifes, and then he felt it. An overwhelming power and it was coming from Knifes.
�W-What is this? How is he still alive? No, nooo, I left power in him. What a mistake that was. Well I shall have to kill him.� Kynotoishi stammered in confusion of the resurrecting of Knifes.
�I think not!� Knifes said, as burst of power issuing from him, as his anger began rise. Rocks began to break away from the ground and ascended toward the Heavens.
�Gabriel, what is that power? Celestial asked as the rocks began to enter Heaven.
�It seems Kynotoishi will be destroyed by what he created. It�s Knifes, Kynoto�s student.� Gabriel said, a look of triumph on his face, � I am going down to watch. You may come if you want to.
�What the? Why are you here?� Kynoto asked the two angels who had just arrived.
�We are here to see the downfall of the tyrant and to, of course, see your handy work. I do believe this boy here was trained by you wasn�t he?� Gabriel asked the now stunned Kynoto.
�Well, yes I did train him.� Kynoto said, fumbling around with the words as though he had barely got them out of his mouth. Now all of the attention turned toward The Boy and The Clone. Knifes wasted no time in attacking. By the time Kynotoishi noticed that Knifes was attacking him, he was already on the ground with a broken arm and a bloody nose.
�H-How is he that fast?� Kynotoishi stammered in amazement.
Knifes said, in a triumphant tone, �I am, because I am, nothing more, nothing less.� Knifes dealt Kynotoishi a few more sever blows to the head and stomach. This left Kynotoishi doubled over in pain. Knifes had managed to break all but 2 of his ribs.
�You want to play rough huh? Well let�s get serious then.� Kynotoishi said as he increased his power. Now Knifes was going to have some trouble and the reason was very simple. If he used his Trianchu to its full extent he could very well destroy the world, but regardless of this Knifes had made his decision. He rattled out an incantation and a ball of black Trianchu appeared over Kynotoishi. It flew down and surrounded him. Then the air was filled with his screams. When the attack had finished, Kynotoishi appeared out of a cloud of red smoke and dust. They all saw that Kynotoishi had been run trough several times by a spike of some sort. He fell onto one knee and said in a weak voice, �Y-You want to use Trianchu now do you? Well then, I say bring it. I have only yet begun to fight.�
�Where is all of his energy coming from?� Gabriel asked as Kynotoishi once again powered up. Kynoto gave him a once word answer, �Anchent.�
�I am getting tired of these bystanders. I think I will kill some of them.� Kynotoishi said grinning evilly. He launched off a ball of Black Trianchu at Kynoto and that others. Kynoto managed e to deflect it back at Kynotoishi, who sustained the attack. Knifes now tried to get Kynotoishi to focus on him instead of the others. He used his quick movement to, again, attack Kynotoishi. This time Kynotoishi was ready for him, yet the result ended in the same manner as before. Knowing what Knifes was going to do, Kynotoishi tried to counter attack him, but Knifes made a quick adjustment to his attack to compensate for this. Knifes set Kynotoishi sprawling on the ground. Kynotoishi got up quickly and retaliated with a Trianchu technique. The ball of Trianchu hit Knifes, who was not expecting it. �Hahaha, the more you struggle, the more entangled you�ll become, yet if you don�t struggle it will kill you. Decisions, decisions, hahaha.� Kynotoishi said laughing maliciously as Knifes struggled to get out of the attack.
�I..I have to get away from this. It�s draining my energy.� Knifes said heavily, as he struggled to free himself. �No, I wont let it end here. I wont let him win, for the sake of this planet, I must destroy him! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!� Knifes yelled. In a split second Knifes went from almost dead to thriving. His power now far exceeded Kynotoishi�s and he was still gaining. Lighting started to strike down from a cloudless sky, the sea became violent, and the ground was shaking. 5 of these lightning bolts converged and hit Knifes, but instead of killing him, they gave hive tremendous power. Kynotoishi had never felt anything like this horror. This was not a child he was faced with, it was a monster. Gabriel was just as amazed.
�Kynoto, how did this boy get this kind of power?� he asked as he looked at Knifes in an astonished disbelief.
�He had this power even before I started to train him. He, I think, is the chosen one. The one that will lead us to salvation from evil. No matter how great that evil is or may become. I first became aware of this power on that fateful day. We had just started to train him, be had gotten some injuries so I told him to use his White Trianchu. As he began, I sensed something. I told him to power up as far as he could go, and he did, but, perhaps, a little too much. A gigantic storm came out of no where and it was very strong. Then I felt 3 different energies. One of them was Knifes, one was the storms, which is also part of Knifes energy, and the third was Kynotoishi. Don�t ask me how, but someway, Kynotoishi got into Knifes soul and feed off of his energy until he was strong enough to emerge.� Kynoto explained to Gabriel in great detail.
�I see, so this is a natural talent. Well then, Kynotoishi knows he is going to lose now. If he thinks he can win, then he is fooling himself.� Gabriel said, as to make Kynotoishi nervous. His tactic worked. Kynoto noticed a hint of fear in Kynotoishi�s face.
�Hahahaha, scared Kynotoishi?� Kynoto asked, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
�Mocking me are you? Well won�t you be surprised when I win this fight.� Kynotoishi said with confidence. Kynotoishi has always had confidence in himself in a hard situation, a trait undoubtedly gained from Kynoto. �Black Blades of Death�, said Kynotoishi. He air around him blackened and materialized into small spikes of strong Black Trianchu. This was a special technique that Kynotoishi had made, since Kynoto had no recollection of it. As Kynotoishis� power increased, so did the density of the spikes. Now the spikes were the size of small daggers, but they still got larger. They stopped when they got to the size of medium sized swords, then they flew into Knifes, so fast that knifes had no time to react. �Hahaha, it seems the once invincible Knives is no more.� Kynotoishi laughed as he watched Knifes fall backwards due to his wounds. Kynoto ran forward to help Knifes. He saw that Knifes had lost a lot of blood and was looking pale. Kynoto removed the remains of the attack form Knifes body. This, however, only increased Knifes bleeding.
�Knifes, you�re going to make it.� Kynoto said reassuringly. Knifes spat up a large amount of blood and replied,
�I know. If anything, this will make me stronger.� Knifes said, now getting up to re-confront Kynotoishi.
�Still alive eh? Well, we can fix that now can�t we.� Kynotoishi said, enthusiasm ringing in his voice. Knifes now was, again, standing in front of Kynotoishi. Then he did something that puzzled Kynotoishi.
�Powers of white, come to my aid!� Knifes said reverently. As he did so, the air around him began to swirl and Knifes began to glow. After 3 minutes of this Knifes stopped glowing and the wind had ceased its movement and was once again calm. To Kynotoishi�s greatest amazement, Knifes had been fully healed. All of the wounds that he inflicted on to Knifes were now non-existent.
�How did you? But, I know I hurt you. So why, why have you�re wounds disappeared?� Kynotoishi asked, his voice trembling with a little anger and fear of this newly discovered, to him at least, power.
�Hahaha, nice to see that you noticed.� Knifes said gleefully. Kynotoishi now had to figure out how to hurt Knifes in such a way that he could not use his powers to recover from the injuries. Then he remembered one of his very old attacks. It was perfect for this occasion, but it would be a strenuous task as Kynotoishi had not used it in such a long time.
�Heh, the battle is going to end here and now Knifes, and Kynoto won�t be able to save you this time. Trianchu Blade attack!� Kynotoishi chanted as his sword glowed with a greenish-black light. Kynotoishi, then, went aft Knifes. Kynotoishi executed this attack perfectly. Having caught Knifes off guard with the first blow and leaving a large gash in Knifes side, he prepared his next attack. This one, however, was deflected by Knifes, but 1 slash was enough. The attack had done its job. This was an attack designed to steal or take, at the whim of the user, the victims Trianchu. 1 slash from this attack drained Knifes of 3/4ths of his power leaving him with not enough power to even heal him. �Not so powerful are you, now that you don�t have any Trianchu.� Kynotoishi said, a grin splitting his face as he advanced on the now Trianchuless Knifes. Kynoto now knew what Kynotoishi planned. �Black Blades of Death, destroy thy enemy. As before the attack hit Knifes and knocked him to the ground. This time though Knifes did not get up.
�I�.I feel no energy coming form him.� Gabriel said, in a tone of disbelief.
�No�. Knifes�get up!� Kynoto said, his voice trembling with anger. Kynoto ran to Knifes.
�K..K.Kynoto. lean close to me and I will tell you how to unlock your power.� Knifes struggled to say as blood gushed from his mouth and nose. He whispered something in Kynoto�s ear then fainted dead away. Celestial began to cry. Kynoto stood up and looked down at the dead Knifes, then to his killer, Kynotoishi.
�Kynotoishi,� Kynoto paused, �you have shown me what you really are and Knifes has shown me the light. You will die before me.� Kynoto said this, his voice etched with tremendous anger. His power was growing very fast. Kynoto was now walking toward Kynotoishi. His power was ever growing.
�How� How could you have this much power and still have hidden it from me?� Kynotoishi stammered as he stared at Kynoto. �Wait, what was the light thing.. oh no.� Kynotoishi groaned as he figured out the riddle. Then Gabriel said
�That�s right Kynotoishi. Kynoto has his gained his angelic powers back, and you know what that means.� Gabriel said triumphantly again. Kynotoishi was quivering in the wake of Kynoto�s power, which was now immeasurable by normal standards. Kynoto was angry. Angry at himself for letting Knifes die, angry at Knifes for not having seen the attack coming, and especially angry at Kynotosihi for having killed Knifes. Kynoto was now staring Kynotoishi down. A grin split Kynoto�s face as he saw Kynotoishi give a small jump of surprise when a rock flew of the ground in front of him. Unlike the rest of the rocks that had began to levitate because of Kynoto�s power, this one moved around Kynotoishi.
�Like my telepathy powers Kynotoishi?� Kynoto said grinning as the rock continued its orbit around Kynotoishi. Kynotoishi replied with a confused voice,
�Tele-what?�
�Telepathy, Kynotoishi. The power to move things with your thoughts.� Kynoto replied calmly. Now tired of just letting the rock spin around Kynotoishi, Kynoto now began to fiddle with it. The rock was now zooming around the area. �No watch Kynotoishi.� Kynoto said as he began to concentrate. After a few minutes Kynotoishis� question was answered. Kynoto willed a boulder to go flying into Kynotoishi. Blood started to gush out of Kynotoishi�s ears and mouth. �Like that Kynotoishi? Aw, don�t tell me your done already� the fun has just begun.� Kynoto said his grin now turning to laughter.
�Agh,� ushered Kynotoishi as he spat up a large amount of blood. He recovered quickly then replied, �You think you have me cornered? Well, your wrong. Its time you see my secret attack.� Kynotoishi stated as he began a chant. �Time to die Kynoto, Black Dragon, hear my plea. Destroy this man before me. He is thine enemy and must be destroyed. I beg of you, give me the power to destroy this foe!� he chanted several times. Then the sky blackened, there were no clouds, as the sun was eclipsed by a gigantic dragon.
�Who asks this of me?� The Dragon said in a deep booming voice.
�I am the one who asks you to grant the power!� Kynotoishi shouted. Kynoto, Gabriel, Triasha, and Celestial were lost for words at the sight of this monstrous creature.
�You shall be given these powers you seek. You have passed my test. Now, receive your powers of the Dark Dragon!� The Dragon boomed, shaking mountains to the ground in the process. A beam of Dark Trianchu shot into Kynotoishi. Kynoto felt his powers. The final showdown had begun, an epic battle is about to unfold. One between a man and his clone.
