Chapter 18
☊ ♐️ 24°48' 🏠4
Huff. Huff.
Serenity is still trying to catch her breath. On her knees. Hand on chest. Clenches it.
Sweat drips from her Afro. Looks to Maryella for guidance. Breeze passes through.
Cools her off. No clouds.
"Maryella. I. Think… I did it," Serenity said, out of breath.
"You just did and you looked great too! But you're out of breath so don't worry about expending too much more energy. You've done enough," Maryella responded.
Serenity rises up. Grabs her stomach in pain. Drops to the ground.
"What's happening to me!? Why can't… I move!"
Maryella puts her hands behind her back. Parade rest.
"You can't move because you used all of your zodiac power to transform. Your gut is tightening up from going any further so you won't hurt yourself. You can thank May for that. It's Virgo's own way of protecting you," Maryella explained.
Serenity looks shocked.
"How can you read my mind? I don't get no privacy there either?" questioned Serenity.
Maryella's eyes twinkle. Smiles. Shows her beautiful smile.
"Well look where you're hun. If the environment changes based on your mood it's peanut butter and jelly with your mind as well. It goes hand in hand. It would be pretty odd to not read your mind but have your emotions on full display. Makes sense?" explained Maryella happily.
"Yeah it does I guess, I mean I get it it's just the logic in this world gets me. Not Drokeo Bay but here specifically," said Serenity.
"By the time you leave it'll be a lot clearer for you I promise. Now, you ready for the Embroidery Blade?"
Jumps up and down for joy.
"Of course, of course! I'm ready!" Serenity said.
Places hand on zodiac ground and incoming, the Embroidery Blade.
Red, yellow, blue, white yarn coursing with her green zodiac energy. Ties itself around her fingers as she spreads them.
Ground turns to quicksand. The blade raises slowly from below horizontally.
Yarn-wrapped handle and blade. Pommel is a sewing needle hole with a long piece of red yarn dangling through it.
The colors of the yarn wrapping the blade, handle are yellow, red, blue, and white.
Grips it tight. Brings it to her chest. Runs fingers through the yarn enjoying its texture.
"What a beautiful sword. This is my prized possession but this now is for you. You've earned it," Maryella said.
Serenity has her eyes on it. Studies the colors and how they intertwine.
"So how do you use it? It's just yarn," Serenity inquired.
"Just yarn?"
Maryella swings it down from her head. The yarn stretches out and binds Serenity.
"Hey! I can't move!"
Chuckling.
"Haha! That's the point. It can do a whole lot more as I already explained but underneath this yarn is a sword-sized threading needle. It's potent and extremely powerful," Maryella explained.
They retract back to her sword. Serenity rubs her wrists. Visibly relieved.
"Do you really think I'm worthy Maryella?" Serenity probed.
"I think you're more than that. You're special beyond what you think about yourself. You're the only one who can bring peace to Drokeo Bay."
Serenity's eyes sink. In deep thought.
"I'm not special by any means but if she thinks so…"
"Serenity what is your name?"
Serenity makes a stank face. You can almost see the wheels turning in her brain after that question was asked.
"My name? You just said it. What are you talking about Maryella??"
Now Serenity was really confused. Scratches her head. Pondering.
Maryella still smiling with those shiny white teeth.
"Your name is Serenity."
"Yes??? And???"
"Your name means peace. Tranquility. Which is exactly what you'll be bringing when you finally fight Argasis. Bringing peace to the world," Maryella explained.
Serenity gasps.
"Did she just—"
"Yes I connected your name to your destiny. Or do you think we are named by accident? For everyone's name has meaning. When your parents named you they saw peace in your eyes even as a child. They saw your spirit. For that alone you were chosen to carry this but it'll also change you. You need this journey.
You will not be who you are in full if you don't defeat Argasis and anyone else who may stand in your path. Even though your serenity is disturbed currently it will be an illuminating light for the other zodiacs and no more will you have chaos. Only peace in your life with everything you want and desire."
Serenity nods in agreement but deep down you can tell she's still processing everything.
"From the day I was born I was meant for this. If this is what will make me the person who I want to be I won't stop no matter what. I don't desire to be perfect but to be the most honest representation of myself," she thought.
Maryella laughs. Knows what she's thinking.
"Hahaha I couldn't agree more. Perfection is not the goal but improvement. Now take the Embroidery Blade and fight me with it," Maryella commanded.
Tosses Serenity the sword. Catches it with the inside of her elbows nearly dropping it.
"Girl you better not drop that! That's premium yarn."
Both bust out laughing.
Serenity takes some practice swings. Twirls the pommel of it on her pointer finger. Stops.
Holds it in her right hand. Sunlight rays bounce off of it.
"Ready. Embroidery Blade!!" Serenity shouts.
Charges toward Maryella. Gets into a fighting stance.
"Let the real training begin. Fight!"
#
Samuel is brushing his hair. Looks at his watch to check the time. He's outside on his rocking chair.
5:00 PM.
"Man it's getting late out here and it's hotter than a mug outside. I'm about to head inside."
"Eeeeek!! Get away!!" shrieked an unknown woman's voice.
"Ah hell nah who disrupting the Air Sector? We need to stick together. I'm as light as a feather no matter the weather," Samuel said.
In his view from his rocking chair massive trees that block his vision but give him privacy.
Gets up. Throws his watch on the ground. Brush as well.
"Folks know what time it is. Time to pony up. Twin Style: Butterfly Wings."
Two light blue-yellow butterfly wings, ethereal in nature, grow from his back. Top half of his wings are drawings Gemini and Twin. Graffiti-style art.
Bottom portions are designs of Gemini glyphs, the planet Mercury, and bookcases.
Taken up in the sky.
Flap. Flap. Flap.
Flying over the wall his wings create a sharp breeze behind him.
Finally over the trees.
"What the!??"
Samuel is shook. Emmit is destroying the Air Sector. He's launching fire attacks, cutting down buildings with his tail, even as far as eating small animals such as cats, rats, and a mongoose.
As Emmit gapes his mouth open for another bite of mongoose, Samuel uses his voice to get his attention.
"Yo!! Stop! You tripping for real! Why are you here?" asked Samuel.
Emmit looks up at Samuel as his wings keep him afloat. Cracks a devious smile.
"Well, well, well! Look who finally decided to stop by! A worthy opponent finally. I'm almost too full to continue bahaha!" laughed Emmit.
His voice has a guttural tone to it with gravel. So much gravel in his voice it could polish diamonds. Venomous saliva leaks out from his mouth. Emitting brown energy.
"This thing sounds like a demon. This is scaring me…" Samuel conceived silently.
His lip quivers. He's afraid of even touching this grotesque-looking beast. He's still in his base state.
"Why so scared looking, Gemini? Where's that other side of you that can run with a beast like me? Or is that zodiac power just for fun? Samuel Xeno. Born on June 20th. On the Anaretic degree that is. I've thought you've seen everything."
Emmit has a certain slickness in his voice that makes him sound untouchable, but anyone can get touched in a fight. He's too cocky. But why?
Samuel stops looking scared.
"How do you know my birthday and name? I don't know you. Don't make me tear you up," Samuel shot back.
Emmit shakes his head in disappointment.
"Oh, you was scared but you're confident now? Who gave you the right to not fear me? I run this town, and no two-faced zodiac who can't control themselves and decide what they want will step to me. I know everything about you and your little friends. The rest are under attack and have died already. You're the last one standing," Emmit said.
Emmit is trying to make it look like Samuel is alone. He's lying. Will Samuel see through it?
His butterfly wings take him to ground level. There's a very healthy distance between the two. About two car lengths.
Wrap around him and fade into stardust.
Emmit smiles, showing his teeth and fangs. Top row human teeth. Bottom Komodo Dragon fangs.
Forked tongue hangs out. Saliva drips from it. Flicks it to the ground. Closes his mouth. Straightens out posture.
Samuel stares at him. His Komodo eyes unwavering.
"This guy is pure evil. He only cares about one thing…" Samuel goes over in his mind.
"What's wrong, Samuel? Cat got you by the proverbial tongue? Show me your fighting prowess. That zodiac power. Get my blood flowing. Or do I have to kill or threaten someone you love?" questioned Emmit.
"Stop asking me questions!!" he demanded.
"Ahhhh this… is perfect. I've already tasted the energy of your zodiac. It's very apparent you're holding back. You don't want to fight because you're scared. I sense it," Emmit stated.
"Just shut and get out of here, bruh. You shouldn't even be here!" Samuel shouted.
Some spit flies out his mouth.
"Say it, don't spray it, but I'm done with this trivial dialogue. Let's fight to the death," said Emmit.
Samuel shakes his head no. He's shivering.
"This thing isn't backing down. He sees right through my words."
Emmit cracks his fingers.
"I'll throw you a deal. You fight me and I won't go after any innocent people or the animals y'all call companions. If not, however, I'll simply just get them myself and do whatever I want according to my innate primal desires," Emmit said.
Takes the bass out of his voice. Softer, but still menacing to the ear.
"Don't you dare…" Samuel threatened.
Emmit shrugs. Smirking.
"You wouldn't be able to do anything anyway. I'm very familiar with the Air Sector. Wherever the wind blows is where people are located. The stronger the gust, the more concentrated the area is with human flesh. My senses tell me the vast majority is—"
Pauses.
Pupils dilate. Faint image of his tongue sprouting out is visible in his pupils. Ring of fire as the outline of his irises.
"On the east side."
Samuel starts to sweat a little.
"So you know then. Fine. We can play that game. I'll fight you. Then tell me the coordinates of where you came from. Got it?" Samuel demanded.
Emmit laughs. Begins wheezing. Sounds like a whoopee cushion when air is leaking out.
"Haaa. Haaaa. Haaa. What an excellent choice, Gemini. That brain is working overtime already. Before we begin, what do you notice?" asked Emmit.
"What do I notice? The hell is this thing talking about?"
"This place is a barren wasteland. Not a single soul is here… out in the open, that is. That's because everyone but us and the zodiacs are under a 6th house power," Emmit explained.
Samuel is stunned.
"6th house ability!!?? Wait, that's an earth sign's ruler. Wait a minute… a Virgo did this!? But Serenity is the only one. She's Virgo's host. When? How?" Samuel talked to himself out loud.
"You may not know him, but she has a brother named Maine. He rounded me and the other mutant orphans up. Don't even think about that matchup. He beat all of us with ease. Step to him and you die on the spot. He's a Virgo too, and he also has zodiac power. I admit he's the only zodiac I respect out of all you bastards. He earned it by defeating me, but I'm done talking. Fire Element: Hell Raising Fire!" he commanded.
Cheeks full of air. Blows orange-blue fire. Forked just like his tongue.
Samuel teleports. Gust of wind in his tracks. Misses him completely. Standing more to the left.
Emmit claps.
"Wow, outstanding. Amazing speed. Now let's amp it up," Emmit said.
Samuel gets in a martial arts fighting stance.
"Komodo Instinct: Komodo Slices."
His hands have a crimson aura. Claws grow to 20 inches. On fire. Small versions of his tongue dangle from them like extensions.
Dripping with indigo-colored venom. Eyes dilate again.
Charges. Speeds up in a blink of an eye. Fire in his tracks. Body blurred because of his speed.
"Damn, he's fast too!"
Flashes before his eyes.
Mouth agape. Pure carnage colors his face.
"Slice!"
Emmit begins swiping.
Each swipe leaves a trail of blue, orange. Heatwaves radiating from them. Crazy speed.
Samuel ducks the first. Leans back. Second misses him.
"Here's my chanc—"
Emmit's forked, tongued-claw tips grow to the size of jump ropes.
Squeezing the life out of him.
"Pay closer attention to your surroundings. You're awfully green in combat," Emmit said, talking smack.
Swipes Samuel across the chest. Clawing open his white shirt.
"Arghhhhhh, no way!"
Blood-stained. Indigo blotches.
Emmit wraps his tail around Samuel as well. Slams him to the left with his tongue and tail. Then the other side.
Ough. Ought!
Retracts his tongue and tail. Punching him in the chest.
Flies backwards. Nearly slams into the wall but is cushioned by a pocket of air. Falls face flat.
"Come on. Is that it?" Emmit mocked.
Samuel slowly rises up. Grips his chest where his heart is.
"I'm. Not. Done. Yet."
Hands return back to normal.
"Mhmmm, well I'm happy about that. It'll just make it easier for you to die," Emmit stated.
"Don't be so cocky. The battle is just getting started," Samuel fired back.
Emmit chuckles in delight.
"Hahaha, well I like that spirit of yours."
Samuel attempts to walk but is brought down to his knees. Gripping his chest intensely. Groaning in pain. Gnashing his teeth.
"What the hell did you do to me, you monster!" Samuel shouted in angst.
"That's just my venom coursing through your veins. As this battle ensues, you'll get weaker and weaker along with getting sluggish. I don't even have to pursue you anymore, ahahaha! I loveee being a Komodo Dragon. All my prey eventually obeys, my way," Emmit stated confidently.
Stands up. Wobbling. Brings palms together.
"You won't get away with this. Air Element: Lethal Wind!" Samuel said.
His arms turn into small sky blue spirals. Hands still normal. Glowing yellow.
Go off. Traveling to Emmit. Creates small overcast clouds over him and one over Emmit without his knowledge.
They howl. Making wind chime sounds.
"Fire Element: Barrier."
A thin veil of fire protects Emmit. Heated wind spreads in all directions. In the shape of an X. Emmit's eyes are illuminated by the clash.
Standing his ground. Only being pushed back a little.
"I even let you get a free hit. No—" He is cut off.
A massive hand descends from the overcast cloud. Its pure energy. Periwinkle Gemini symbols on the top of it. Sky blue-silver Gemini twin faces in the palm. Laughing.
Glowing. Glittering with stardust. Grabs him by the neck.
Chokes him. Throws him up in the air. Snags tail. Flings him.
Crash!
His body leaves a crater. Spits up brown blood. Rolls over. Stands up. Panting.
Hand imprint on his tail and neck.
"Not bad. You got me there. How about my trump card? Komodo Instinct: Komodo Transfiguration. Haaaaaa-ahhhhhh!!!!" he bellowed from his gut.
His body heals. Osteoderms start to grow starting at his belly. Covers his whole body in a dark brown goo. Hardens. Forms osteoderms.
Tail thickens 3x its size. Tail tip is one of his claws. Whole tail on fire. Turns into a Komodo dragon, but human.
Eyebrows turn into fangs. Hips are now open mouths breathing out green mist. Indigo aura. Water-like movement.
Removes cloak. Drops it to his right side.
"Welcome to the onslaught. Me in my full glory. My Holy Komodo Form."
Samuel stands his ground.
"You aren't scaring anyone," said Samuel.
Emmit raises his eyebrows like The Rock.
"All that talking makes me think your bluffing. The confidence exuding from you is quite strong actually. I think its fake," Emmit mocked.
Samuel shoots him a grin.
"And just what is so funny you double sided twit."
Now Emmit is just ragging on him at this point. At a standstill.
"That you really thought I feared you that much. You did make me fear you a little but I played it up. Now that you've unveiled your true form… its my time now to ascend. Twin Style: Gemini Transformation!"
Sky blue aura engulfs his frame. Wind picks up behind him. Gemini symbols appear on his upper arms. Black. Glowing icy periwinkle.
Yin-yang, silver and yellow respectively, creates a halo. Circling non-stop.
Emmit looks amused.
"That's it? That's your transformation? How boring," Emmit ridiculed.
Samuel gets in a track runner's stance.
"Don't take this lightly. Twin Style: Spiraling Typhoon."
Another version of him pops up. Starts off as a breeze and turns into him.
Both twist and spin. Producing hurricane-force winds. 120 MPH. Each have butterfly wings in the typhoons. Samuel's is silver. The other icy periwinkle.
The other vanishes. Emmit's lips flap, showing his gums.
Other typhoon is by his left hip.
Samuel, as a typhoon, launches himself from his spot. Sucking in concrete, ambient air getting larger as he approaches him.
"Don't make me laugh. Desert Style: Solar Flare!"
His mouth-hips shoot out a quick, blinding light. Samuel can't see a thing now.
Emmit is hit on the right hip by the other typhoon. Samuel makes contact too.
Blasted by blue energy beams from them. However…
"Got him," Samuel said.
Typhoons stop spinning. Other version of him turns into a breeze.
Looks in the sky and lo' and behold, look who it is.
"You nearly got me with all of that. Still not good enough."
Emmit floats above him. Scratched up. Osteoderms missing from his chest.
"How is he still alive!"
"Just before the other typhoon approached me, my solar flare bought me enough time to get out the way, but not unscathed, but that's fine. I ain't dead yet."
Emmit squints his eyes.
"Komodo Instinct: Osteoderm Frenzy."
Osteoderms rain from above, from his hips and detaching from his body. Attacking Samuel.
Moves out the way. Runs to avoid them. He's quick enough for sure.
Each one creates a crater in the ground, then spreading his venom in the cracks of the asphalt.
"Fast runner. Out run this. Komodo Instinct: Reptilian Ecstasy," Emmit commanded.
Tail grows to the size of a truck. Also turns into a Komodo Dragon breathing out fire.
Develops a mouth. 9 other Komodo's come out to play. Pursues him.
Ach.
A red energy beam infused with poisonous liquid spits out.
"Just keep on attacking. You've already shown your hand and mindset."
The beam decays airflow around it as it travels. Disintegrating concrete, cars, buildings, and killing trees. It just won't stop.
Runs up a 200-foot skyscraper. Halfway to the top.
"Need some help?" a voice spoke to him inside his head.
Its Gemini!
"Gemini, is that you?" asked Samuel.
"You know it is, son. Tap in."
Having a whole conversation in his head. I know a few of us can relate. Maybe not talking voices like Samuel, but still.
Anyway, back to this fight. I'm grabbing some chocolate candy. I can't miss this. Hopefully, I don't miss anything.
"Hahahaha! Bruh, you better stay locked in. How you letting this dude punk you like this, bro?" Twin said, joining in on the conversation.
"Hey, this ain't easy, you know. Oh shoot!"
A giant osteoderm is a couple of feet away from Samuel's face.
Boom!
Teleports. Up 20 feet higher and airborne. Butterfly wings are back.
Hits the building he was on. Slices it in half like a fresh loaf of bread.
"Yeah, I might need a hand. How about we show him our true power or at least more of it."
"Good thinking, homie. You know what to do next," Gemini said.
"And we want cheesecake afterwards! Well, I do."
"Zodiac's eat cheesecake?"
"Samuel!" shouted Gemini in his head.
"I know, I know. I'm the host, remember? We need each other."
"Got a point. Now lock us in, youngin. I want to get my hands on him," Twin said impatiently.
Emmit's attacks stop.
Tail and osteoderms come crashing down. Sending shockwaves. Samuel is unfazed.
"Let's close… the. GAP!" Emmit said as his voice exploded near the end.
"Twin Style: Dual Mask," Samuel said confidently without wavering.
A mask, left side albino. Laughing. Black features. Right side. A black man's face. Rugged, weathered look but youthful in appearance. Frowning.
Glows silver, yellow. Puts it on.
"Complete!" said Twin and Gemini in unison in his head.
Latches onto his face. Hair on right side goes from a fade to short curly twists. Other side turns blonde.
Left half of body turns albino. Yellow nunchucks with Mercury glyphs appear on the left hand. Radiating chrome energy.
Right arm has mini hurricanes wrapped around his arms like armbands. Starry quality.
Baby blue spiral design on his chest. Air is visibly being pushed inside the spiral. Chrome undertones.
Butterfly wings are in full effect. Spiritual. Sky blue, yellow. Right side is Gemini's face. Left is Twin's. Same colors with white added in.
Mirrored pattern of turquoise spirals, yellow songbirds.
Gemini glyphs burn on the backs of his hands. Clear. Air swirling through the glyph tattoos.
It's complete.
"So this is you at your full power, huh… Or that's just another ascended zodiac state. I finally got you to bring them out. Now thrill me!!"
Flying feverishly to him.
"Ooooh, I can't WAIT to mess you up, boi," said Gemini, speaking through Samuel.
His voice now is all of theirs put together. Slight distortion. Echoing voice.
In his Gemini zodiac transformation, Gemini or Twin can speak through Samuel. Taking over his speech.
When this happens, whoever is speaking, whether it be Gemini, Twin, or Samuel, their voice is heard the most while the others are turned down.
Even controlling his body. This only happens when a different side takes over, but not the whole time.
"Hahhhh!!" Emmit explodes.
Spins his body around. Osteoderms turn gooey and cover his body like pottery being made.
Tail sticks out of the clay-goo. End is split into three tips.
One like a spiked ball. Other a Komodo Dragon head. Last one pointed like an arrow.
Indigo aura. Yellow venom on the tips that looks like Play-Doh.
"Can't hold me. Twin Style: Multiplication," Samuel said.
Two tornadoes to his left and right have a hurricane combined with it at the top.
Boom! Thud!
Overcast clouds are above them. Lightning strikes the ground with force.
Trees tip over as if they were cut by a lumberjack. Cars flipping over, not stopping until they hit a home.
Things are heating up.
Two more versions of him show up in the place of the tornadoes.
"Time to go. Attack!" said Gemini.
They all fly her in the air. Separate to create a distance but still close. Begin to attack Emmit one by one and teaming up on him.
"Hurricane Band Toss!" shouted Samuel.
Takes off two of the hurricanes wrapped around his arm. Tosses one to each twin.
Grabs two more himself, leaving one more. Acts as if he's hugging himself.
Samuel throws his at Emmit.
The left version's hurricanes grow butterfly wings poking out the eye. Right version has Twin's face in glittering icy periwinkle as the handle of it. Like a spinning top.
Throw them at the same time.
Emmit hears the wind whistling.
Body begins to spin slower.
Hit him.
"Arggghhh!!" Emmit wails.
Osteoderms are being torn off. Some are gooey.
Fling upwards, backwards, horizontally. Pretty much every way you can think of.
Twin's face is laughing as Emmit is being blasted by Samuel.
"How can this be its me in my Holy Komodo form!" shouted Emmit angrily in his head.
They intensify. Grow substantially larger. Start turning dark gray.
"EAUGHHH!!! UGHHH!! NO!!!" Emmit wailed with defeat in his voice.
Poof.
They vanish.
Emmit is keeled over. Left hand slung over his shoulder. Pale skin. Red marks on his skin from the osteoderms being torn off. Some goo still running down his back.
Back to his base state.
"Now didn't I tell you that I'd get you? Hmmm?" Gemini said.
"You haven't won a damn thing yet. I still have plenty more where that came from," Emmit shot back.
"I don't think so. Its time for your end, sucka," Samuel said.
Takes the mask off. Twin versions of himself disappear. Goes back to his base state.
"You got out of your transformation?? Hahahaha-haaa!! You can't beat me like that, you're making it far too easy!" Emmit said.
"If that's what you think. Watch this," Samuel said stoically.
"He can't possibly think anything will work on the most powerful mutant orphan himself, can't he? We'll just see what the cat has in the bag," Emmit crafted in his head.
"Tercera Casa: Tercera Casa: Mimetismo de Géminis. Cast out," Samuel said out loud.
"3rd House: Gemini's Mimicry. Cast out," Twin and Gemini say it in his head, English.
All speak in unison. Spreads arms.
Emmit begins to freak out. Sweating. The rest of his osteoderms pour out on the concrete and form a puddle.
"He's speaking a foreign language!!?? I can't understand him!" Emmit panicked.
The overcast clouds create a triangle-shaped prism around them that spans all of the Air Sector.
Samuel and Emmit are inside of it. All around them is mirrored patterns of butterfly wings. Background design of them are spirals, Gemini glyphs, Gemini and Twin's faces.
Everything is colored sky blue, yellow, silver, icy periwinkle. They are constantly moving.
The butterfly wings fly as if they are flying on a plant. Spirals twirling in place. Gemini symbols turn horizontal. Swim like fish.
Extra windy.
"I'll just use another technique. He won't know what hit him. Desert Style: Mirage!"
A mirage begins to emerge and expand, but the wind quickly blows it away.
"Wait, it didn't work? That wasn't even that strong, it got blown like straws!"
"And you'll be getting blown to pieces right now," Samuel taunted.
"No! Nooo!! This shouldn't be happening. I should still be able to use my powers!!" Emmit hollered.
"Since my sign Gemini rules language, communication, thought, and anything to do with the brain, my house ability strips it down to the level of my choosing where I want your cognitive abilities to be.
So you can no longer use your powers effectively. No more human logic for you. Strictly animalistic, because what Komodo Dragon do you know that can USE POWERS!!!!" Samuel goes off at the end.
Emmit tries to move around.
Versions of himself emerge from the prism. Teleport. One in front of Emmit. Other in the back. Nowhere to hide.
"Damn you, Gemini!"
Both of their hands have a blue glow. Butterfly wing designs.
"Ooooh-Aahhh!" Emmit moans and groans as he is struck.
They land six blows on him. Ethereal butterflies flying after every connected punch.
"I can't move fast enough. Too fast…"
Samuel smirks. Reads his mind.
"You weren't fast enough to begin with," Samuel said.
Spirals shoot out wind tempest-beams. From all angles.
Emmit hears them from all directions.
His sense of sound has been thrown off.
"Twin Style: Double Mayhem."
Two tornadoes, one below and above, tips transform into the end of a stake. Yellow energy coursing through them.
Butterfly wings from the prism bind him like a cocoon.
Samuel teleports in front of him. Spreads right hand above head.
Last hurricane disk floats in palm. Flashing blue, yellow like a strobe light.
Gemini symbol on right arm grows. Covers whole arm like a tattoo. Icy periwinkle aura. Lightning bolts flash in it.
Throws the disk. Cocks arm back into a fist after. Aura intensifies.
Aura extends past the elbow and creates a sky blue, turquoise yellow aura. Moves like a flame being blown by heavy wind.
Shapes into peacock wings with the front ends the wings of a monarch butterfly.
Flap. Flap. Flap.
"Double Mayhem!" Samuel said.
Everything comes in at once.
"You'll pay for this, you two-faced bastard! EAUGH!!!!!" Emmit screams one last time.
Bam! Kaboom!
Samuel's fist caves in Emmit's stomach. Eyes roll to the back of his head.
Everything colliding creates a blue, indigo energy sphere around them.
Size of three wrecking balls.
Finally explodes.
Wind shoots out like a cannon in every direction.
Trees are snapped in half. Cars stripped down to their engines.
Blue, indigo, sky blue, and yellow-like cracks the sphere. Pieces fall off like cracked glass.
Completely break through. Bright flash of light.
Everything shakes violently. Subsidies.
Sky is normal.
Emmit is nowhere to be found.
Pieces of his cloak fall to the ground.
He's dead.
The prism goes away.
"Thank goodness that monster is gone, but dang was he powerful. I have to tell the others before its too late. I don't want anyone else to die!" Samuel said passionately.
Flies over to the Earth Sector.
"Serenity, anyone please be safe. We need every single zodiac to be alive."
