  Part X- The Bold, The Burning, And The Bloodthirsty

  Xavier

  Anima shrinked down to my size and lifted my chin. She stared into my eyes. "I say we keep him. He is bloody handsome and would make a great plaything." Animus shook his head. "Seriously? This bastard nearly killed me back there!" Anima looked at me. "Will you behave and not kill us?" I was unconvinced "What are your terms?" They thought about it. "You will agree to do EXACTLY what I say. This includes my personal experimentations. An in return, we will feed you, and house you for the next 500 years. Then you are free to go" I thought hard about it... Wait... Experimentations? That sounds not good at all! But... she does have a beautiful voice... "I'll do it." Anima Squeled in delight. Animus was happy that he would not have to take more pain. "Okay, let's show you my bedroom. You'll stay here, most of the time..."

  "HOLD IT!"

  A young girl stood in the door frame. She slammed her palm on a nearby table,then pointed her finger at Anima. "LUCIA!?" She smiled and donned her hood. "You think a Freakin' Dragon could kill me?! What the hell is wrong with you!" I smiled. I should have known better. "I disagree to your terms!" I yelled. "Too bad, you already agreed!" Anima spat. I slammed my palm on the table in the same manner Lucia did. "TAKE THAT! I see no contract!" Anima screamed and grew to original size. She produced a rapier and yelled. "You little Bastard! YOU AGREED!" I waved her off and turned. "Well, I think I could do better than a plaything." I produced my gold rapier. "HAVE AT YOU!" She shrunk and I parried her first slash. I stabbed forward and she blocked. I assumed Hero Stance: Two hands on sword at shoulder, like a myrmadon. I dashed forward, my strokes heavy and slow. Up! Down! Right! I threw my rapier aside and drew my knives. Stab! Stab! Stab! Stab! Four strokes, two seconds. I consumed a cup of Athena blood. Oh. Gods... I felt sick... I toppled over. Wait! I'm a Frickin' Surgeon! Okay... Nausea... wait... WHAT THE HELL? Athena Had Heroin in her blood. Oh. No. This blood is not useful. I chucked the canister at Anima's face. Blood spurted our. Her face was contorted in rage. Lucia jumped and kicked her face in. She fell over. Animus was behind me. I did a one hand stand and pushed off the ground to kick his chin he howled in pain. He pinned me down. I looked to Lucia. She was pinned. Each Anim had their sword raised. "Um. Lucia, Um. I love you." Lucia "Me. Too." I closed my eyes. "WHOA! Good thing the lightning missed my heart! What the Hell did I miss?"Both Anims looked at him "Who the hell is this?" Anima asked me. "This is Ivan. He is me, just crappier" I replied. "Okay... what relevance is he to us?" Anima questioned. Lucia started. "He can kick the Crap out of either of you." Lucia is genius. A bluff. "Um. Yeah! Totally." Ivan said. And jumped at them. Animus swatted him away. "You suck! He is your best soldier?" I stabbed his stomach. "When it comes to distractions he is." Animus's intestines spilled onto the ground. I smiled, wickedly. Ooh... Intestines... no. Now is not the form to get distracted by cool body parts. Animus stumbled, but magically repaired his abdominal area. Ivan got up, and yet another body flew through the door, and kicked Anima in the face. "Stupid Bastard! Come at me!" Heather kicked off her face and backflipped to land upright, sword raised. "Really? Really?! You can't kill us!" Heather attempted to sever off Anima's hand. She just got slapped in the face. A fiery figure came bursting out the door. Holy Crap! It's Mattais! "I couldn't leave you here to die!" I was touched. "Thanks Tay. What's with... Ivan! Duck!... the flames and stuff." Mattais burst into flames "Oh. I just absorbed the ethereal's power. I can turn fire on or off." Hector and Loch came side by side. The seven heroes are back in action! Animus slashed, Hector blocked and returned his blow. "God, didn't think I'd make that!" Hector turned and cut at Anima from behind. She screamed as a large gash appeared on her back and golden blood spilled down her. I wonder how that tastes? Oh well. I'll try some once I killed her. Loch slashed in slow strong slashes, Right. Left. Up. Up. Down. Up. His sword made contact four times out of five. With every slash, Animus was knocked around by the power of each blow. With a powerful two-handed swing, he stumbled and missed. He took a sword blow to the leg. Lucia injured her hip, blood spilling down it. Being smart, she filled a bottle with her blood and handed it to me. I took a gulp, and instantly moved faster. Mattais took a smash against the wall. I stabbed quickly. Seven in a half second. With one slash, Anima knocked Mattais, Hector and Ivan to the wall. Animus charged me, but I moved out is the way and smashed his face into the ground. He smashed on top of Heather, who crawled away with screwed up leg. This us it. Me guarding six injured allies. They advanced on me when... A human fell from the roof. With one kick, Animus's head exploded into golden blood and skull fragments. I bottled some as this human kicked a hole in Anima's stomach. I got a good look at him. He had golden brown hair and stubble with 19-century cowboy boots and hat, with a plaid 21-century shirt and jeans he was extremely masculine. "Thank you sir. Who are you?"Hector asked. "My name? It's Chuck Norris." And with that he broke through the wall. And was riding away on a cat with a poptart body that was crapping out rainbows. "Umm. What the HELL just happened?" Loch asked. "We just won." Lucia replied with a smile.

  Part XI-Epilogue

  In the end, the seven heroes saved the princess on top of the tower. As they took the princess back to Roy, Lucia, Xavier, and Mattais disappeared. the remaining heroes met up with Nah and Helen on the way back. Roy paid them generous amounts of money, and they lived in Old Haven for a long time. Ivan indeed grew into Xavier, and Heather did grow to Kuma, then Lucia, and Loch grew to Claus, and so forth and so forth. All the predictions were correct. The time travellers returned to the moment that they went back in time, and all was okay with Hector and Ivan and Heather and them, until one day, hundreds of years later... but that's a different story, not to be told here.
