Ignited Flames author:Hush Mazmanos Note: This is a little break from The Emblem Assassins and will focus on another character who will intersect paths with them. And it will be more of a drama then an action kind of thing I'm using but there will be action just not too much of it. First attempt at drama so here goes. And I dont own the songs and guitar brands and models that I'm gonna put in this fic. This isnt a promotional fic or anything I'm just gonna describe things in a more detailed view. This fic is dedicated to all my friends in school who I always hang-out with. This is especially dedicated to one of my friends who matters the most to me. "Things that can change grow frightening. In the deep pulsation that lies ahead. Painted in the exchanged flames, I can see eternity. We break each other down till we can't even move. Our solitary wings overlapped, We've not encountered the light, Only the glare this age gives off. I don't fear the power to change. In the deep pulsation that lies ahead. Painted in the exchanged flames. Carry out your destiny."- Ignited, G.S. Destiny Scene 1 Celestia, Capital: Crystal City, village area. The peaceful night in the beautiful village area of Celestia is suddenly broken when in one home the loud and powerful sound of Heavy Metal. Inside the home a 15 year old, black furred fox is in his room playing with his ESP Eclipse Spider. And his stereo playing the song Wherever I May Roam by Metallica. In his room pictures of Heavy Metal bands, guitars, starfighters, movies, blasters and in one corner right next to his bed are pictures of the ones who meant the world to him. 1 picture had him with a beautiful girl around his arm. And another the same girl with the rest of his gang. He continued to play until the song finally ended. He wiped away his sweat after 2 hours of endless playing. He sets his guitar down and lays on his bed. And looks at his commlink awaiting a text message from someone dear to him. He continues to stare at the comm link until he hears a voice calling him. Voice "Raze! you ready? We have to go in a while!" Raze (sighing) "Ok, fine!" He looks sadly at his commlink and he picks it up stashes it in his pocket. And takes off his shirt and puts on a semi formal shirt and goes off into his bathroom and washes his face a bit and puts on some cologne. He then picks up his wallet and runs down to find his friend Mike there. Mike "Thank God! You're finnally down! C'mon let's go! We're gonna be late!" Mike then pulls Raze his arm and they both rush off outside of the house where Jack's father is waiting inside a speeder. They both get in and Jack's father, John starts up the speeder and heads off to their destination. John "I take it you were too drowned in your music weren't you, Raze?" Mike (mockingly) "Gee, you think?" Raze (smiling) "Shut up, Lisa." Mike (smirking) "Yeah, whatever, Chelsea." Both of them laugh at each other. And talk about music, movies until they arrive at their destinaton. Scene 2 Movie Theater A simple movie theater with a ticket booth in the middle stands in one of the main hang out areas for teenagers like Mike and Raze. When they both arrive they catch sight of a beautiful gray furred fox. The only thing Raze could do was walk up to her and give her a hug. Mike was smirking the heck out of himself from this. Raze (softly) "Hey, Chels. Were you waiting for awhile? Hey! You let your hair down." Chelsea (smiling) "Heya, no I just got here. Yeah I did. Anything wrong?" Raze "No you look great. So what movie do you wanna see?" Chelsea "I dunno you pick." Raze (looks at the selection of movies) "Fine, let's just see Desert then. I'm sure we know of some people in there." Chelsea "Ok. Then but how about Mike and Lisa? I know there're gonna see The Lunatics." Raze looks at Mike who is sitting at the steps of the movie theater waiting for Lisa. Raze (snorting) "His loss." The 2 laughed and entered the movie. But unknown to them from a nearby rooftop a female Nharnian knight stands watching over Raze and beside her a white furred male wolf looks down as well. Wolf "Wisp, how are you sure he is fit for the position." Wisp "He is. I sense great worry in him. Especially around the girl. But I feel so much power from him. Ian, I know you dont see hope in that boy. but I do. His heart and soul alone is kind and powerful. But his will to fight is weak. I cannot allow him to fall into an abyss where he is now hanging on and anytime he could fall." Ian "I feel that it's the girl that keeps him from falling?" Wisp "You are right there. I have been watching this boy for years now. He has gone through one heart break after another. And this girl seems to be able to see what he is really like. Yet... She barely feels the same way. She only loves him as her friend." Ian "I dont understand. I know you've been probing this boy's mind for awhile but yet I dont undsertand" Wisp "She told him of all the years she was in her school its only in these last few months did she find greatest friend she ever had. He feels the same way but even more." Ian "So why must we pick him? He has too many emotions it wont help in our cause." Wisp "It will. You'll see." Ian "I hope you're right. The council doesnt have faith in you but you know the entire Shadow Net does." Wisp "I know... Ian, if I were to fall and I'm not able to train Raziel, or fail to finish his training. Promise me as my aprentice that you will become his handler?" Ian "I promise." Wisp (smiling) "Thanks, Ian." The two turn tail and walk off into the darkness. Scene 3 2 hours later. Raziel and Chelsea walk out of the movie. Both walkin side by side as they begin walking off to somewhere else. Raze (smirking) "Liked the movie?" Chelsea "Yeah I did. Would've been better Al would just shut up through out the movie." Both of them chuckle as they approached a cafe. It was simple compared to the other cafes around the city but the prices were a whole lot more reasonable and the quality of their stuff was better. Pretty much a preffered place for those who just wanna have fun relazxing inside there. When the two enter the manager, Joey greets them as he is preparing a glass of juice for some customers. Joey (chuckling) "How's it going guys? Doing the usual movie then cafe routine?" Chelsea (smiling) "Yep the usual expect more of us to show up in around 20 minutes." Joey (cracking his knuckles) "Alright you guys have a seat and I'll get right to ya." The two walk to a small 2 person table and sit down. Raze "So have you decided if your gonna be moving or not?" Chelsea "I dunno really. I mean I wanna move to Opal city to try something new but I dont wanna leave behind my family and all my friends here. But I already took the test anyway." Raze (pained) "Oh I see. Just decide what you feel is best for you and your family. Dont let me, Clara, or anyone get in your way to deciding." Chelsea "Thanks, Raze. It sux you just moved to our school recently and we only got close just a few months ago." Raze "Can't blame me. Hehehe... I just wished I couldve come years earlier." Chelsea (smiling) "Oh really? But this thing about me moving. Im gonna find out the results by monday morning. Dont tell anyone I told you but I had the choice to take the test or not." Raze (pained) "It doesnt matter. You did your best anyway. Remember we all just want whats best for you." Chelsea (*smiling) "You know, Raze. Out of the 6 years I studied in Crystal high. Its only in these final few months do I find a true friend for me. I'm so lucky to have someone like you." Raze "I'm so lucky to have you too. If you do move and if you need anything, advice or whatever its just a call or message away." Chelsea (smiling) "Thanks your the best. So what're you planning to do after college?" Raze (chuckling) "I dunno really I wanna try being a musician but my parents obviously are against that. They want me to be a lawyer or something. So what're you planning?" Chelsea "I dunno too. I wanna try joining the Celestia Special Forces." Raze "Training for that is hell. I know they only pick 10%of the ones who train for that." Chelsea "I know thats why I'm considering on becoming something else still have to decide." Raze (smiling) "Ok." Chelsea "Are you ok? you havent been acting yourself lately." Raze (lying) "I'm alright. Just a bit pressured from school and Ms. Cacator. I swear she gets on my nerves all the time!" Chelsea "Your telling me. She keeps playing favourites. And treats the others like crud." Raze "Dont worry one day she'll regret doing all that." Chelsea (smiling) "You better not be planning something. Cause I'm the one who might be moving not you." Raze "Oh well. Still lookin for mr. Right?" (thinking) Chelsea "Nope, Cause I found him already. you should know who he is." Raze "No I dont. Is it Leo? Bruce? Justin?" Chelsea (smiling) "Nope. Lets just call him unknown. And he is the right guy for me. You know he is. I know he cares for me a lot and if he asked me to be his girl friend I'll gladly say yes rightaway. I'm just afraid if I pass the test he might get hurt or something. I dont want to risk a long distance relationship." Raze "Ok, I wont bug you about it." (thinking) Chelsea "You'll find out who it is when the time comes." Raze (smiling) "Ill take your word for it." Joey arrives with a notepad and a pen. Joey (joyful) "So what will it be?" Both placed their orders and The night was spent hanging out and fun. But one was going through unimaginable pain. Scene 4 Raze's room, next day, 3:00 pm Raziel could be seen sitting on his work station in his room. In his work station was a table for writing or building something then to the left of that table is a computer. Raze could be seen in his pjs using his computer typing and working on something and on his table a bunch of artists like Metallica, Fozzy, Static-X and Slipknot. Basically it was all heavy metal artists. He continued to work until he took a rest and took a cd from his table and placed it in his stereo and took his new BC Rich Kerry King Warlock guitar and put the sling on and once the cd started playing he activated his amp. And the song Battery was being played. After nearly 7 minutes of intense playing he drops down on his bed with the guitar still on him and his body sweatty from the intense playing. Raziel (panting) "I'd rather have this than being in a band." He chuckles a bit and he slowly gets up, he sets his guitar on his bed and changes his shirt. He then gets out of his house and enters the garage for a long bike ride. As he is pulling his bike out he could feel someone was staring at him. He turns around to see no one there. Raziel (thinking) He continues on what he is doing and above the garage a transparent blob could be seen. It rushes off to another location at breakneck speeds. It keeps up in this pace until it reaches the main city where it stops in front of a tall office building with a lightning emblem on it. It runs up the building walls until it reached a certain floor around the 40th and slides in through an open window. Then suddenly the transparent blob began to reveal itself as Wisp. She takes off her cloak to reveal a white body suit with a sheathe knife on her shoulder and her lightsaber hanging from her belt. She closes the window and props herself on the couch. She then looks at a bunch of photos of her and her family, friends, past apprentices and her eyes rest on the picture of a younger picture of her and her handler. Wisp "How could he have known of my presence there?" Voice "Maybe cause the stealth camouflage wasnt perfected yet. It must've let out a spark or something." Wisp looks back to see a brown furred, chubby, teenage squirell with frameless glasses and a utility belt filled with gadgets. Wisp "No, Sparks. He felt my presence as though it were screaming at him. It just proves he is fit for the job." Sparks "Just cause your powers feel that way means heis fit for it? You do know Kara will be against that decision." Wisp "Kara is my apprentice. And I'm her handler. I was entrusted the job of finding the next leader of Shadow Net. Entrusted to train him, dicipline him then test him. I have so much faith in this boy." Sparks "How old is this kid anyway?" Wisp "As old as Kara." Sparks "Sounds intresting. What is it besides his power thingy that makes you feel he is fit for inheriting the Legacy." Wisp "Because I know he isnt easily corruptable. Though he is emotional, and his willingness to keep fighting is weak. I know he is responsible enough to lead the most dangerous agency in the Aniverse and to be able to use 500 Billion simoleans to good use." Sparks "Kara is also fit for that job you know." Wisp "She is but I have my doubts about her ability to lead. But her ability to follow is unmatched. Even she admits the same." Sparks (snorting) "Sounds like their soulmates." Wisp (chuckling) "Yeah." Sparks "When will you take this kid in?" Wisp "When he lost all will to keep fighting." Sparks "You're saying this guy is conflicted?" Wisp stands up and walks toward the window and looks at the busy city as speeders go to their destination, X-02 Orbital Defense Planes fly around on patrol. Wisp "In a way he is. And he'll probably be more of a challenge if he loses all will to fight. But it's through his emotions can he draw the most power from. Now he despises his inner demons but in time he will learn to see them as an ally than a burden." Sparks "Now I'm really looking forwards to meeting this guy." Wisp (smiling) "You will. Say, Sparks. Know anything about guitars?" Sparks "Not really. But Kara does." Wisp "Alright. They'll both get along very well." Sparks "Well better not be now or anytime soon cause she's been ticked off lately cause of Bobby." Wisp (still smiling) "Why is that?" Sparks "Well, you know the one of the council members doesnt approve of her and said a few nasty things to her. Well Bobby enjoys rubbing it in to the point she just walked away from training. If you ask me she wouldnt even come out of her room anymore." Wisp "Makes me wanna get this boy into training now. I'm sure they wont approve of him either." Sparks "I can tell. Seeing how intrested you are in training him. Ian gonna help out?" Wisp "Of course. I will really enjoy how the council will react since they have no choice." Sparks "Cool. Uhm Boss?" Wisp (looking back) "yes?" Sparks "Talkin to Kara. She's been through a lot of crap recently. And I'm sure your the only one who can get her out of her room." Wisp "Will do." Sparks "Thanks, boss." Sparks turns tail and walks off. Wisp soon follows. She walks across the massive office where hundreds of Shadow Net agents and employees are at work. She then reaches the elevator where a small kepad could be seen. She types in 54 and the elevator eventually arrives and she enters and the doors close and the elevator begins making its way up to its destination. Once it arrives she exits and the hall looks like that of a hotel. She then walks towards the room on the farthest end. And knocks on the door. No reply. She then leans her ear closer and she could hear sobbing inside. She knocks again. Voice (sobbing) "Stay away. I dont need anyone!" Wisp "Kara, its me." Wisp waits for awhile then she hears the locks been unlocked and the door opens to reveal beautiful gray furred fox. Wearing a black tank top and underwear. Her eyes were red from all the crying she has done. Kara's body was toned from the training she does. Kara "W-wisp. What is it?" Wisp "Can I come in? Its useless talking in here." Kara (quietly and wiping away her tears) "Ok. Who told you to come?" Wisp (going inside) "Sparks did. He cares about you." Kara "He does? heh Sounds different to how Bobby and councilor Piyar told me." Wisp holds Kara by her shoulders and leads her to the couch against the window which overlooks the more nature side of Celestia and it was where the sun would set which made this room perfect for her. they both sit and Wisp looks directly at Kara's eyes. Wisp "What is it did they tell you?" Kara (sniffling) "During training Piyar being the bastard he is kept telling me how much of a burden I was to Shadow Net, How I will lead to its downfall and be the main cause of everyone dying. He kept brining me down while training. And what really got me is when he said no one will ever fall in love with a disgusting person like me. He has so many thing against me. I never even did anything wrong to him. Then Bobby that freller he intensified the training and everytime he knew Piyar was brining me down he became twice as aggressive and when he finally took down my guard. He took me by the neck and slammed me against the wall with full force. Then Piyar just goes up to me while I was there on the wall. And he spat at my face saying no one in here cares about me not even you." Wisp "That frelling..." Kara "After he said that I was able to get out of that situation. I couldnt see what I was hitting since I was crying so much after he said that but I know I beat the hell out of bobby then just ran out of there. What is it does Piayr have against me?" Wisp "Piyar is scum. Who only prefers those who fight without thinking about the well being of others. And you do. He takes pleasure in destroying those who are like that." Kara "Why is he even in the council if he is like that? I just hope whoever your picking for the next leader will do something about it." Wisp "I already did. Piyar wont like my choice. But it was the council that picked me to find the next leader. You'll be under his squadron." Kara (wiping away more of her tears) "your forming a new squadron?" Wisp "Yes, what do you think if I call the squadron Death Angel?" Kara (smiling) "Not too bad. Considering the one member in it. Who else you putting in besdies me and this guy?" Wisp "Jonas Repta will be the heavy weapons specialist, Nastasha Dragunov will be the sniper, Izack will be the stealth specialist, Roger Tang will be the vehicles specialist, Jacques Le Bleu will be the technician, Kathy Lair will be the medic and Spade Landon will be the operator of the group." Kara "Good choices. At least all of them arent like the jerks who follow, Piyar. And Sparks being our operator. Wow, he is the best one here." Wisp "I knew you'd love the team. I know you ave at least met all of the members here but youhavent met your captain." Kara "I know, I know. When you taking him in?" Wisp "When the time comes for it. I will." Kara "Oh I see." Kara then looks at the window to see the sun setting. And something inside her just wished she could share moments like this with someone who loved her for who she was not how she looked. Wisp, seeing Kara's stare at the sunset and sees her sigh. Puts a hand on her shoulder. Wisp "You'll find the right one for you soon. Just have to wait." Kara "I know." They both look into the distance as the sun sets. Scene 5 Celestia high, Monday, 12:00 p.m., Lunch time, school grounds Raziel could be seen sitting alone in the school benches with his school bag lying beside him. He looks up at the crystal blue sky. When he ears someone sit beside him to see it was Mike. Raze "What you doing here, Mike?" Mike "So did you ask her?" Raze "No I didnt. Its not cause I didnt have the guts to do it. but its cause she said some unknown dude is good for her. And all that. I dont know anymore." Mike "So you feel bad. Tell me about mr. Unknown" Raze begins telling Mike everything. Mike nods as Raze gives off an important detail. Mike "Dude, its you. You're mr. Unknown." Raze (raising an eye brow) "How are you so sure?" Mike "Tell me first did you ask her who it was? If yes how does she react?" Raze "Yeah I did. She'd always look away but keep eye contact whenever she answered." Mike "Frell, dude it is you! She's just afraid to tell you! go for it by the end of the day!" Raze "You sure?" Mike "I'm gonna repeat something you tell me almost a lot of the time. It's now or never." Raze "Right, by the time class ends today. I'll ask her." Mike (laughing) "Now you talking, dude! I mean both of you feel the same way for each other might as well ask her to be your girl friend." Raze (chuckling) "I know I get the point." The two get up and start messing arund until they hear the school bell ring to start afternoon classes... Later that afternoon... Scene 6 Waiting area As speeders go into the parking lot. Raze looks around to see if Chelsea's speeder was anywhere nearby. Seeing it hasnt arrived yet. He silently waits as he sees all his friends and schoolmates leave one by one. Until they were as little as 7 people. It was already an hour since the dismissal bell had gone off. He continued to wait until he saw her coming. not seeing her saddend face he runs up to her. Raze "Hey, you came out late. Can I ask talk to you?" chelsea (forced smile) "Hi, sure. Just came from the offcie my parents called." The two found a place to sit. Raze "What did your parents say?" Chelsea "Raze, I dont know how to break this to you without hurting you." Raze felt a knife stab in his stomach hearing this. Chelsea (continuing) "I passed the entrance exam. I'm moving for sure." Raze felt the stab wound grow wider and his heart just felt like it wasnt there anymore. He looked at her for a moment and he just pulls his hair back a bit. Raze (lying) "Oh ok. Thats great. I'm happy for you." Chelsea "Raze, are you ok?" Raze (pained) "Yeah I am. I mean if its for the best." Chelsea (sadly) "Oh. so what is it do you wanna talk about with me." Raze "Its nothing. I just wanted to see how you were today..." Chelsea "Raze, if you feel bad just tell me. whats the point of being best friends if you wont tell what bothering you?" Raze "Ok I'll be honest with you. Im not ok. I feel like theres nothing inside me anymore. Happy?" Chelsea "Then why did you lie to me just now?" Raze "Cause I know you feel awful too. I know you do seeing your face when you told me the news. I didnt wanna make things worse for you." Chelsea "It's alright if you tell me stuff like this. Even if it hurts me. I mean whats the point of being best friends if you dont wanna talk about it?" Raze "Its just that I dont want our friendship to end." Chelsea "Well, Raze I hate to say it but our friendship is slowly ending." Raze "What?! How can it? I dont want it to." Chelsea (tears in her eyes) "Well sorry but it is. I'm sorry." Raze (begining to cry) "Why? How can you end it?" Chelsea (crying) "I cant say why... Im just so sorry for getting close to you. You know why." Raze "What is it because of me? Just please tell me." Chelsea "I cant say ok!?. Im really sorry. I really am!" Raze "Why all of a sudden do you want it to end between us? Didnt any of the things I say to you and all the things I did for you mean a thing to you? doesnt this friendship mean anything to you for that matter?" Chelsea "Yes it all does. And I'm thankful to have those memories for you. I'm thankful you did all that for me. But its just the way it has to be." Raze "Fine, when you said you dont ever wanna break my heart a few weeks ago. Well guess what, Chels you did! you dont imagine the pain I have to go through everyday of my bloody life." Chelsea "I'm also suffering here too! The fact that something wants me to end our friendship already hurts like hell!" Raze (calming down) "Fine, if you want to end it then end it. If it will make things easier for you then do it. I mean I promised I'd do anything for you. So consider this as my last. But before we end things I just wanted to say, Of all my friends I loved you the most. And thanks for everything." Raze then stands up. all he wants to do is run home and get away from everything. His friends, family, home, memories. EVERYTHING! He just wanted to go off somewhere he'll just forget everything. He was about to run. But he felt a hand grab his. He looked and saw Chels holding unto his hand. He wanted to struggle free but he saw her pain in her eyes alone. He never saw her like this. He never saw her cry. He has seen her mad. but most of the time he has seen her smile. but now her face was full of pain. He slowly sat down. And awaited what she was gonna say. Chelsea "I love you so much too. I dont want to end things between us. I'll just sacrifice myself to save our friendship." Raze "You dont have to do this. If it will make life easier for then end it. I dnt wanna see you suffer." Chelsea "Raze, if I never loved you. I wouldnt be doing this. But please tell me something." Raze "What?" Chelsea "Do you love me that much? I dont mean to be full of myself. But I just want to know how you feel about me before I go." Raze "I love you more than a friend, Chels. You mean the world to me. I dont ever wanna lose you. Cause you caused a big impact in my life. Thats why I'd do anything to keep our friendship alive. I just love you so much. You've done so much for me. you were the truest frind I've ever had. I dont know how I can make up all those things you've done for me. I love you so much. If this friendship ends I dont know what will become of me." Chelsea gasped when she heard all of this. She didnt know how to reply to all this. She was silent for a a minute until she finally replies Chelsea (smiling) "Raze, that's the sweetest thing anyone ever said to me. I love you so much too. And you mean a lot to me too. I mean I didnt I meant that much to you. you reall yod want to keep this friendship alive. and I really want it to keep going on too. Your also the truest friend I've ever had. Raze, if ever need me my doors will always be open for you." Raze "I'll always be there for you too. No matter what." They both pull each other into a hug. Chelsea "Raze, can we start over?" Raze "What do you mean?' Chelsea "Forget this thing even happened. We'll just keep in touch so we can keep being the closest of friends." Raze "Ok. But I have to make it up to you somehow." Chelsea "Thank you Raze. Thanks for everything. You were always there for me. Whenever I needed you. You were there for me more than anyone else even my own dad not that your like a dad but you always stuck by me no matter what. You already made it up to me. By just being my friend always. I hope things will never change between us. Ill never forget you. I always feel so lucky whenever you say youll be there for me." Raze "I feel so lucky just knowing were still gonna be the best of friends." Chelsea "Raze, even if I have to move. All we have to do is keep in touch and we'll always be close. We'll be best friends forever. And maybe someday we might end up together." Raze closed his wishing this moment would never end. The love of his life in his arms. He knew he was unknwon without her telling him. She indirectly confessed it to him. Raze "Yeah. We'll just see what happens." Chelsea "Yeah, I know my grandfather predicts I have some soulmate and he is just around me. but when I asked if it was you he said he doesnt think so. He thinks he can predict the future." Raze "Does his predictions come true?" Chelsea "Sometimes..." Raze "You know that doesnt matter to me. What does matter is that we keep being friends." Chelsea "Yeah." They both slowly pull away. And look at each others eyes. And from what seemed like an eternity. Chelsea's speeder pulls over. Chelsea "I have to go now... I'll see you around, k? Keep in touch. I love you." She plants a kiss on his cheek and runs off into her speeder and as it heads off Raze stands up and carresses the the cheek where he was kissed. He picks up his bag and runs home. Running away from everything that made him remember the tender moement they had, Running away from his memories his past. Everything. Tears filled his eyes again. He soon reached his home. He ran up his room ignoring his mother and father who were chekin if it were him. And he runs in his room. Slams the door and locks it. He jumps on his bed and cries himself to sleep. After a few hours he had awkoen he looked at the clock to see it 12 am. He got up and the thought of running away from everything crossed his mind again. Something inside was nagging that he'll never see him again. His mind felt like a twister was inside. He opened the window and he climbed to the roof top. And sat there looking at Crystal City. And the colorful lights that surrounded it. Raze (thinking and crying) Voice "then if you die you wont be able to fulfill your purpose in life..." Raze (startled) "Who said that? And how did you know..." Suddenly Wisp appears out of nowhere Wisp "How did I know what you were thinking? It's a special talent I have." Raze gets up and stares at Wisp. Wisp "I'm here to help you fulfill you destiny." Raze "Destiny in what?!" Wisp "Become the next Emperor of the Shadow Net Empire." Raze "What?! Shadow Net is nothing but a hoax. Something the governemnt will just cover up! You're insane!" Wisp "What is insanity Raziel Legion? Answer me? What is it?" Raze remains silent from this. Wisp "I know your heart is broken. And the flame of hope inside of you is gone but I'm here to ingite that flame once again. I know of your abilities, Raze. you cn do so many things. you already know how to fight hand-to-hand, you know how to shoot blasters. You know how to battle 10 people but I will teach you to battle 1000. I will teach you to bring those powers out, teach you how to aim a blaster accrately without even needing to look at your target. All in matter of 5 seconds..." Raze "What the frell are you talk..." Suddenly with inhuman speed Wisp grabs Raziel by the arm and slams down on the roof and she pulls out a cube gadget and suddenly the cube opens up and a needle comes out. Wisp (whispering) "Sparks, I pray this works." She stabs it against the back of his neck. Raze tries to shout in pain but nothing could come out except a gasp. then he could feel electric pulses course through his body. Then after a minute of that she pulls it out. Wisp "Now let's see if all my fighting skills are in this boy..." She then pulls out her lightsaber. And she reaches for another light saber in her belt. she activates both. One saber was blue the other was green. She then levitates anothe lightsaber from her belt towards him. Wisp "Fight me, Raziel!" Raziel opens his eyes. They were full of rage he picks up the lightsaber and activates it and a red blade comes out. He makes a relentless attack upon her. She tries to block but somehow he is able to make her go on the defensive position. Wisp (thinking) She continued to block util she bgan running away at inhuman speeds again but this time she was leading him to the Shadow NEt HQ. On her way there she realized that he was not too far away from her. Wisp "Oh My God! He isnt even diciplined in this and yet his running form is so perfect." He then keeps pace with her and they both slash at each other for awhile. They keep at this until they run up the walls of the Shadow Net building. And they run all the way up to the roof top where a small starport is located and what awaited them was a bunch of agents and their blasters aimed at Raziel. Wisp simply deactivates her lightsabers. And ordeers the agents to stand down. Wisp "You were amazing. You just need to train a little more and you'll be perfect." Raze (shouting) "I dont want this. I just went through probably the worst day of my life. And now your gonna bring upon me to become the leader of this?!" Wisp "Thats the point. Your spirit was destroyed. Your will to fight is gone. I'm going to bring all that back into you." Raze (angrily) "No more! I've had enough of life offering me these things! I've had it! It always goes wrong someway like..." Wisp "What happend between you and Chelsea?" Raze (hysterical) "You were spying on me?" Wisp (stoic) "Yes. Its the only way I would've known you were perfect for this." Raze "No way. I'm not doing this. I want a normal life! not some bullshit one filled with war! I'm not gonna fight in this stupid Toad War!" Raziel then jumps off the building and he begins running along the walls again. And he begins running away. This time he wont be going home. This time he wont. Wisp and Ian watch him as he rushes off into nowhere. Ian "Well seems he isnt fit for it." Wisp "He is. Everything is falling to plan. He'll comeback. He'll see past everything. He just needs time to regain himself, to think his life through. And soon he will take his place as captain of the Death Angels Squadron and Emperor of The Shadow Net Empire." Ian "But what if..." Wisp "He'll return. One of these days he will use the powers I have given to save the ones he cares for. The girl, Chelsea. Is the only thing that keeps him fighting. So he will go to her in time. And when he sees the value of his powers he will use to protect the ones he loves and seeing he can't do it alone he will come to us for help." Ian "I guess he has that girl to thank? I mean once he comes to us." Wisp "Yes. She has proven her worth as a friend to him. Now its his turn. He will prove how much he cares for her and because of that she will be able to help him out from the point of falling into the abyss. Their love for each other is strong. And depending on what he does it will strengthen their bond or simply weaken it. But I know he'll keep it strong because he'll realize he has something to fight for. Like I told him the flames inside of him maybe extinguished. But its slowly being Ignited once again. " Ian "So I guess it will be a tough time for him and us?" Wisp (smiling) "It wont be that hard. But it will be more of one hell of a ride." The End
