Read My Life's An Anime :: Train for the war-lock

(As Kaden and fallspast are fighting. Fallspast notices kadens hands are shaking.) Is it the fight that's doing that to your hands? (Said fallspast.) No. I drank coffee daily. (Said kaden.) Then we'll be fighting for a few hours then. Let's blow off some of that coffee. (Said fallspast. Kaden nods and runs at fallspast. Throwing several punches.) The same thing can't work on an enemy twice. (Fallspast dodges and goes behind kaden.) I know! (Kaden throws several elbow strikes to fallspasts' gut. Knocking him back.) Good. You're adapting. You'll need it for the war. (Said fallspast.) I know. Now. (Kaden readies his fists. His body tensing up. The adrenaline boost kicking in once more.) Let's do this! Fallspast! (Said kaden as he ran at fallspast. Throwing several headbutts. But no damage was done to fallspast. Fallspast punches Kaden in the gut. Knocking him back. But Kaden remains standing. Kaden then throws punches at fallspasts' head. But fallspast dodges.) Trying to kill me or something? It won't work. But good try. (Fallspast says as he knees Kaden in the gut.) Dang. You're good. And the titan is several hundred times better? (Said kaden.) Yes. So are the leaders. You need to be strong. (Said fallspast.) I know that. (Said kaden. The two begin to fight for about 9 hours. Kadens body shaking. But not due to coffee.) Already nighttime. I should get going. (Said kaden as he walks off.) Take care. (Said kaden.) Will do. (Said fallspast. Meanwhile. Sak is still training with shenzhu. Throwing jabs and kicks. But shenzhu is dodging while blindfolded. Hands tied behind his back and with one leg tied to his hip.) Dammit! Why can't I hit you! (Said sak.) You lack speed. As well as technique. (Said shenzhu.) Technique? Alright. HAA! (Said sak as he activated 'Ark' at stage 1.) Not that kind of technique. But ok. (Said shenzhu. Sak throws jabs and kicks. But shenzhu still dodges.) Dammit! Even with my power level. You're still dodging. And I don't even know yours. (Said sak.) 800. (Said shenzhu.) Only 800? But... you seem so good. (Said sak.) That's decades of fighting knowledge. It's how I was able to keep up with the wizdress even though I was outmatched in every way but fighting skill. (Said shenzhu.) WHERE'D YOU GET A BAGUETTE!? (Sak Screamed as he sak shenzhu with a baguette in his mouth.) Kaden gave it to me. (Said shenzhu. Kaden's watching.) You're doing good. Just try not to miss and you might hit. (Said kaden.) SHUT UP!!! (Said sak.) GET some sleep. We'll continue this in the morning. (Said shenzhu.) Yes, master. (Said sak.) Alright shenzhu. (Said kaden.) IT'S MASTER!!! (Said sak.) Nope. (Kaden and sak go to their tents. Resting. But sak remains awake. Unable to sleep. Sak then goes out into the steelwood garden and begins punching the bark of the trees. His hands beginning to bleed. But he doesn't care. Then. Fallspast arrives.) Getting in some late night training? (Said fallspast.) Yeah. I just feel like master isn't teaching me as well as he'd teach Kaden. Do you think he hates me? (Said sak.) I doubt that. Maybe he just doesn't want you to fail. Maybe he doesn't want you to die. You will get stronger than shenzhu one day. And he'll most likely die before you defeat the warlock titan. Shenzhus' power level would still be lower than the wizdress. Even if he used Ark at its final stage. I believe he cares about you more than his own life. He just hasn't found the words yet. (Said fallspast.) Right... (Said sak.) Here. (Said fallspast as he hands sak weighted clothes.) Weighted clothes? But I'm already wearing weighted clothes. (Said sak.) Only the braces and shirt are weighted. So just take them off when you get serious. It'll also help out your training. (Said fallspast.) Thanks. (Said sak as he puts the clothes on. A white gi with black braces on the wrists and ankles. With a black shirt under the top of the white gi.) Like it? (Said fallspast.) Yeah. It's great. (Said sak.) Good. I'll be leaving now. Have fun. (Said fallspast as he walks away. Leaving sak to train. When morning came. Sak had fallen asleep. But trained enough. Raising his weighted power level to 500.) I see you've gotten a new gi. One that's not my own. But not someone else's either. (Said shenzhu.) Right. Fallspast gave it to me. To help me train. (Said sak.) I guess it's your own gi. Since that one doesn't exist anywhere else. (Said shenzhu.) I guess so. (Said sak.) Well. Shall we begin? (Shenzhu says as he gets in a fighting stance.) Yes, master. (Sak rushes towards shenzhu. Throwing several jabs at him. Shenzhu dodges. But gets hit once. Yet there was no damage.) You've grown faster. But have you grown stronger? (Said shenzhu. Sak then kicks his gut. But shenzhu blocked it and countered with a kick of his own. But sak dodged it. Throwing an uppercut. But shenzhu dodged and spun with a kick. Sending sak flying.) I know that's not your all, sak. (Said shenzhu.) Right. (Sak takes off the top of his gi. Taking off the black shirt before putting the gi back on. Then he takes off the bracers.) 1000. You've grown to have a higher power level than me. But can you use it? (Shenzhu throws several jabs at sak. But sak dodges. Throwing several kicks at shenzhu. But shenzhu dodges and kicks sak into the air. Sak fell down with a mighty chop. But shenzhu dodged. Sak then activated 'Ark' at stage 2. Raising his power level to 400 thousand.) Come at me, master! Don't hold back.! (Said sak.) Alright. I'll just use Ark myself. (Shenzhu activates 'Ark' at stage 10. Raising his power level to 1,600,000. Before speedblitzing sak in an instant.) You've grown stronger in less time than me and kaden. (Shenzhu walks away.) Good job. (Said shenzhu. Sak then goes over to kaden. Who's talking to fallspast about the war.) Kaden. I won't be strong enough to take on even the weakest leader. So you'll have to absorb my power level if things go wrong against my other side. It'll only give you an extra 15 thousand on your power level. But it'll be enough it you're taught 'Ark.' (Said fallspast.) If it doesn't happen. The battle might end up being harder. I just have a feeling. (Said fallspast.) Alright. I'll do it. If I learn Ark and can use it at its final stage. My power level would be more than enough to defeat the warlock titan on my own. Right? (Said kaden.) It'd be in the billions. So, yes. You'd be a bit overkill for the titan. (Said fallspast.) Alright. (Said kaden.) Ypu may get back to trai- (fallspast is cut off by a loud roar. Coming from the direction kaden and sak came from when they first met.) That way is... (kaden runs to where the roar came from. Fallspast following.) Wait up! (Said fallspast.) No! (Said kaden.) I can't let everyone die! (Said kaden as he ran as fast as he could. Fallspast kept up. When they arrived. They saw an army of warlocks. Being led by the two other leaders. The warlock brawler and the warlock hunter.) Today! Let us feast on the corpses of the human race! And let them know who's truly on top! (Said the hunter.) Remember. Tear them apart for us. We don't like softies. (Said the brawler. Fallspast comes up with a punch to the brawlers face. But he tanks it. Throwing a punch of his own that sends fallspast all the way back to the demon hunters camp.) Warlocks! (The hunter points to kaden.) Feast. (The army of warlocks began to charge at kaden. Kaden began fighting the army of warlocks. Putting up a fight. Even throwing around some warlocks with a power level of 15 thousand. The brawler falls down to kaden.) You have quite the spirit. YOU'LL BE THE FIRST I FIGHT!!!! (The brawler yelled as he threw a punch at kaden. Kaden blocked. But he was sent back 50 feet. The two began a fist fight. The adrenaline boost kicking in. But giving no edge over the battle. Kaden was being beat. Then sak dropkicked the brawler and helped kaden up.) Come on! We can't lose now.! (Said sak. The two then began to tag-team against the brawler. Sak activating 'Ark' at stage 2. Leaving Kaden in the dust. Kaden takes on the warlock army while sak deals with the brawler. The hunter watching. Sak and the brawler have an extremely wide power gap. The brawler having a power level of 2 million. But due to Saks superior fighting skill. He's keeping up. Even knocking the brawler back a bit. He then throws a typhoon fist. Sending a gust of spiral wind at the brawler. Tearing apart his arm. Kaden is being overwhelmed by the army. He's slowly losing strength and stamina. Everyone has already surpassed him in terms of strength. And kadens stuck at this level. Unable to grow any further. Unable to shatter this limit. Kaden falls to the ground as sak finishes off the brawler by twisting his insides with the spiral gusts of wind. but sam is exhausted from that. The army began attacking sak. Pushing him into the forest where the wizdress is.) I've had enough of shenzhu and his student. As well as that hatted runt. ALL OF YOU WILL DIE!!!! (The wizdress Screamed as she threw a jab at the weakened Saks heart. But shenzhu stepped in front and threw a spiral gust of wind at the wizdress. Knocking her back.) GET OUT OF HERE! (Shenzhu yelled.) Bu- JUST GO!!! (Sak was cut off by shenzhu. Sak then ran off. Leaving shenzhu to fight the wizdress.) Fighting me all on your own? How foolish. You've grown weaker than your own student. (Said the wizdress.) Since when was that a bad thing? I trained my student to be stronger than me. I pushed myself to push sak beyond his limits. I won't have all that go to waste. I want sak to survive. So you're fighting me. Not sak. (Said shenzhu.) Fine. I'll make the first move. (The wizdress lunges at shenzhu with a purple lightning coated fist. Shenzhu deflects the attack and knees her gut. Knocking her back. But she sends down a bolt of purple lightning down at shenzhu. But he dodges. Shenzhu activates 'Ark' at stage 10. He then throws several gusts of spiral wind at the wizdress. Knocking her back. But doing no damage. The wizdress throws punches that cause shenzhu to lose a limb. His right arm. Shenzhu counters with a kick to the side. The wizdress threw kicks at shenzhu. But shenzhu activated 'Ark' at stage 20. The final stage. Before dodging the attack and throwing several thousand kicks. But the wizdress blocks them all. Shenzhus life slowly begins to drain as the fight goes on. Shenzhu throws an assault of punches and jabs at the wizdress. But the wizdress blocked with no damage. Shenzhu then leaped up into the air.) I WON'T LET YOU KILL OFF MY STUDENT! (He twists his final hand to his hip.) HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! (Shenzhu threw one last spiral gust of wind. Larger than any tornado. Yet condensed into a smaller attack. The wizdress gets damaged due to the sheer amount of power. But the wizdress leaped through it and up to shenzhu. Before plunging her arm right through his heart. The wizdress leaves shenzhu to die on the ground. Meanwhile. Kaden is on the ground. Useless as sak is being attacked by an army of warlocks. Slowly losing.) "I... can't let them... win... but... my body won't move... everyone's gotten so strong... leaving me in the dust... am I really this weak..." (kaden thought to himself. But... suddenly... the surrounding area near kaden begins to glow red. As a pillar of red light engulfs kaden. As Kaden rises. The pillar disappeared. But standing there... is kaden. With a red circle aura. Leaving sak shocked. Kaden took one step after the other. His power level higher than ever before. He suddenly kills all the warlocks except the hunter who ran when he saw the red light.) You're... the... (Said couldn't get the words out.) I guess so. (The form is suddenly off.) I guess you need to be able to control your ki. Then you'll be able to remain in the form. (Said sak. Suddenly. Sak sees the wizdress fly off. His eyes widen.) MASTER!!!! (Sak runs over to where shenzhu is. Seeing his bloody and torn body. And a hole through his chest.) s... sak... I can't raise my voice... I hope you can hear me well... I'm sorry I couldn't be there... and I'm sorry I won't be with you... (sak has tears running down his face.) sak... I've heard about what you thought I thought of you... don't worry... I'm very much proud... I wanted you to be stronger than me... I wanted you to survive... you're like a son to me... and I can't let my family die... (shenzhus last words come out.) I've always cared... goodbye... sak... (shenzhus life fades away as sak cries over him.) Sak... (kaden pauses.) Don't worry. (Kaden pats saks' shoulder.) He's always with you. No matter where you go. As long as you remember him. He'll live on. Even if it ain't physical. Memories carry as much weight as reality. Don't worry. He's always been our master... and you're father figure... (Said kaden. Kaden picks up shenzhus body.) Well can't let him die out here without a proper burial. (Said kaden.) Right... (Said sak. The two bring shenzhus' body to a casket. Fallspast speaks up.) Shenzhu was an old friend of mine... seeing him go... heck... not even seeing him go still shattered my heart... a lifelong friend... dying suddenly... (Said fallspast. Kaden speaks up.) He was a great sensei. (He pats Saks shoulder.) But a better father. Let's not have senseis death be in vein. (Said kaden. Sak nods. Shenzhus' body is buried with a tree seed in the hole in his chest. So a tree could grow out of it. Giving sak something to remember him by. The three walk back to the main part of the base. Sak silent. Kaden hands sak a bowl of ramen.) Go on. Have it. (Said kaden. Sak took it.) Thanks... you're like a brother. And... master was... the father... (Said sak.) We'll train to fight the warlocks tomorrow. Fallspast can step in as shenzhu as leader. (Said kaden.) No. Let sak have it. I'm fine without it. (Said fallspast.) Me? As.. leader? (Said sak.) Not just leader. (Fallspast bows in respect.) But also a master. (Said fallspast.) Master? (Said sak.) And friend. (Said kaden.) Right. (Sak walked up on a rock. All the demon hunters watching.) In one week! We storm the warlocks base! We have our own warlock who was friends with master! So he'll look for it! As for you all! Train like he'll! The weakest will train with me and kaden! (Sak yelled. The demon hunters cheered.)
