Chapter 15: Duels End
Ash: Half a sword? Am I granted this much?
Something felt eerie at just what happened, it almost seemed like the powers controlling the supernatural elements of the Osmosis Sword wanted them to duel. It gave each person half a sword to duel with, the winner would probably end up with the full thing. Ash knew that if he lost then the full strength of the sword would go to G/S and every minute he possessed he grew smarter on how to use the sword to its full power. Just a moment ago he managed to do a multi-elemental attack, how long more till he realizes its true strength?
Ash: Its been decided! It will be a duel!
G/S picked up his half the sword and lunged right at Ash. Ash raised his sword ready to block the attack but as G/S got closer he disappeared right before Ash. It was puzzling for a split, then Ash sensed his presents near him. A quick hop backward and Ash managed to escape a fatal blow to his head. It was a faint attack, the darkness element was give to G/S. Ash wondered what else elements he possessed while he was holding the sword. G/S rushed right at Ash again, Ash readied just about for anything; just as G/S collided swords with him a piece of broken wood flew to the side of Ash. It was controlled by psychic power, probably the confusion attack. A quick judgment by Ash lead him to score a quick blow to G/S; a electrical punch right to the chest area. G/S sparked a bit but continued coming right for Ash, the sword changed a bit and turned green. It was growing longer like a plant and sprout thrones and a bud.
G/S: Eat this!
With a swing the bud opened up and stun spore flew towards Ash. With quick thinking and a little luck Ash swung his sword forward to summon a gust of wind to blow the stun spore away. Ash possessed some flying element but didn’t have the knowledge to levitate yet. Ash got on the offensive and performed a flame move emitting from the sword and to Kurai’s planet sword. It all melted away, dissolving back into its original form. G/S felt frustrated so he tried a new method of attack. Quickly running to the side of Ash he unleashed a massive earthquake attack by touching the tip of his blade to the ground. Ash lost his footing for a moment and G/S saw the opening. Quickly he pushed forth energy that resembled huge rocks and they started to head for Ash. Instinctively Ash knew it was a rock slide thus meaning it can be canceled out with water. While still on the ground Ash swung the sword to have water type energies to cancel the attack out, but this was all going to Kurai’s plan. With a quick motion he switched over to ice energy and froze the water Ash was sending. The ice beam hit Ash against the wall and started to freeze him into an ice block. Quickly before he was completely frozen Ash made use of fire and melted away the ice. The ice attacks still seamed too strong, stronger than fire. All the ice turned into water but this gave a great flow to G/S. G/S unleashed another huge ice beam attack and Ash stopped it with fire, as he was canceling it out, with his own potential he shot out electrical energies into the water. G/S was electrocuted again and it started to hurt him. He kneeled down for a moment on one leg but got back up in a rage. The sword got longer, severally dangerously long but it didn’t change shape or look. Nearly fifteen feet away Ash was avoiding being cut up by its blade. There was no special sword capabilities that allowed it to grow longer but maybe it was an elemental doing it. The only possible element would be steel. Ash threw out another electrical shock energies but the shape of the sword grows shorter quickly and turned brown. The electrical energies didn’t affect G/S; the sword was turned into a rock type. Immediately Ash tried to unleash water but the shape changed again for Kurai’s sword, now green as in plant type. The water had no effect on the plant element, G/S saw Ash’s confusion from all the changes and with a quick swing an attack was launched. The incoming attack appeared blue but burning like fire. With little time Ash tried to cancel it out with a fire attack but he still go hurt from the attack. Ash feared that Dragon type was one of the elements G/S possessed.
Ash: Dragon . . I need ice but he already has ice . . . now what do I do . . .
Misty: Ash! Watch out!
Ash saw a full dragon rage attack headed right at him, the only thing he could do was hold his arms up and try to take to blow as well as he could. Part of his clothes were singed from the attack and he felt bruises and cuts all over him. He thought about all the possible weaknesses that Dragon types could have but the only real effective weakness is ice and that was something he didn’t have. He only knew he had fire, water, electricity, and a few others he has yet to realize. It all didn’t matter, dragon types are superior types compared to anything else.
G/S: Too bad . . . its been a wonderful show but it’s the end . . .
Ash closed his eyes for a moment, he felt the heat coming right at him, sweat dripped down his cheek, and there was a slight tingling sensation within him, the electrical element that he commanded was starting to build up. Then just as the dragon rage was nearing Ash, he knew the answer. He immediately shot out water, he knew it wouldn’t hold the dragon rage too long but with the other hand he shot out electricity into the water. He hoped it would work because he was feeling extremely tired and couldn’t take too much more from the battle. A brief moment Ash waited, hoping what he wanted would. His knees started to shake and give in, he could barely keep his eyes open, and the weight of his arms has doubled when holding a long attack like he was doing. He waited for it to happen, hopefully it would . . .
G/S: That’s noting compared to this!
The dragon rage pushed further right towards Ash. It was getting harder to keep the attack back and it inched closer every second. Ash closed his eyes, just in time when a split second there was a big flash. There was also a loud explosion, near deafening. Everyone shielded their eyes for the moment but when things dimmed a bit they all saw G/S laying on the ground out cold and Ash sitting down trying to catch his breath.
Misty: Ash!!
Misty pushed all the energy she had into getting up and walking towards Ash. She collapsed not too far but Ash caught her.
Misty: Your alright! And you beat him!
Ash: Yeah. I was hoping for an explosion.
Misty: Explosion?
Ash: Remember back when that Collector guy captured the legendary birds and we helped free them. Fire, water, and electricity mixed together forms a big explosion. Dragon Rage is almost like fire and I was shooting electricity and water, so I figured, maybe an explosion would knock him down.
Misty: But what if you got hurt too?
Ash: That was a risk I had to take. Besides, it wasn’t much anyway.
Misty leaned on Ash as they slowly walked together towards the fallen G/S.
Ash: It was a shame, he’s probably one of the best in his circuit yet he has degrade and do this. Well I better to liberate him of the sword so . . .
Immediately G/S saw a big opening that will be fatal for Ash. G/S jumped up from where he laying down, swung his sword up, and ready to skewer Ash right through. Ash pushed Misty off so she wouldn’t get hit, but that took him a split second he didn’t have. The sword was coming right for him and he didn’t have enough time to bring his own sword to block. . . Ash saw G/S’s eyes gleefully laughing with madness, was it the last thing he saw?
Ash closed his eyes awaiting death but it never came. He heard a loud clang sound realizing it was not his sword dropping to the ground. He opened his eyes and saw G/S knocked down again, this time the sword was out of his hand. Ash turned to his side and saw Gary slouching where he sat holding a pokeball in his hand and right next to was his Kingler.
Gary: Hyperbeam . . .
Ash smiled and gave a thumbs up to Gary. Gary returned the gesture, feeling very tired and worn out, wanted to close his eyes and sleep a bit.
Ash: Pokemon do act on their own accord . . . maybe the Kingler knew what Gary wanted it to do and did it before Gary had a chance to say . . . anyway . . .
Ash used his sword as a walking cane, walked over to G/S, picked up the fallen sword and held it.
Ash: Relic Sword from long ago . . . I guess this is what you call something that Dreams Are Made Of.
*****
Ash quietly sat on his keyboard of his apartment typing out his assignment for the week. He was nearly done, just working on the last few paragraphs. Misty walked over with a tray of home baked cookies and some chocolate milk.
Misty: Ash, why not take a break for now? You’ve been on that thing since this morning! Your going to need real glasses at the rate your going.
Ash stretched a bit, turned his chair around, and faced Misty. He smiled, took off his glasses, and picked up his mug. He sipped his chocolate milk then placed it back on the tray.
Ash: I’m just so behind in my schedule. This entire week was nothing but heck, heck, and more heck.
Misty placed the platter on the table and sat down not too far from Ash. She smiled and started to eat her share. Ash looked at his glasses, rubbed them a bit, then placed them on the keyboard. He rolled his chair towards Misty and placed his head at the back of her neck.
Ash: Are you sure you want to stay here? We could go adventuring again like before.
Misty held Ash’s hand behind her then gave her reply.
Misty: The promise we made long ago, well I kinda wanna keep it.
Ash: As you wish . . . my lil mermaid.
Misty giggled; it was Ash’s pet name for her when they were in their early teenage years. There was a knock on the door, Ash rose to answer it and to his surprise his mother and aunt Sara was there to greet him.
Ash: M . . Mom . . . A . . . Aunty Sara . . . what are you . . . two doing here?
In the next chapter: Ash explains the previous events to his mom and his aunty. Lina and Gary appears to join in the conversation. After talking about what happened for the past three years, Ash talks about his future and what he plans on doing.
