Death Won't Stop Me

Fire?

A forceful wind burst out with Jon in the middle. Dust and rubble was blown outwards. His eyes turned all black and his irises turned to blue, like bright blue stars twinkling in the night. Azure colored flame burned throughout his body, but he was not harmed. The flame on his body condensed into azure line tattoos all over his body like veins. His lower arms and hands bulged to at least thrice its' size and turned azure in color with flame like patterns. His hair grew long, almost touching his shoulder blades and also turned azure in color. A black colored ring appeared, rotating and floating from his back. Energies around his back started to converge towards the middle of the ring, forming tangible mist like energies. It was being continuously absorbed at a much rapid rate by his seed inside his body. 

"Pharaoh." Eddie called his guardian to synchronize with him again and transformed back into his werewolf like state. He was keeping his vision and senses tightly locked onto Jon.

Jon looked at him for a moment then turned to Ana. During his transformation, she lost her consciousness from the constant pain of the torture inflicted on her.

"Ana.." Eddie was shocked to suddenly hear Jon behind him as he was standing in front of him just now. He hurriedly looked behind him and saw Jon kneeling beside Ana caressing her face.

"Can I do something to help her?" Jon asked in his mind.

"Yes master. Vest her with my spiritual flames. It'll help her heal her injuries faster." The mysterious voice answered in his mind.

"Your flames?" He asked again as he lifted his right hand and urged his spiritual energy to form into flames on his hand. Immediately, azure colored flames burst out on his hand.

"Yes master." The voice replied again.

Jon pondered for a bit then nodded his head and made a pointing motion towards Ana's chest area. The flame in his hand suddenly rushed out towards the middle of her chest area. Then her body instantly flashed in azure color as tiny blue flames burst out from her cuts all over her body. The cuts then rapidly healed and left no scars at all. 

Jon sighed when he saw her breathing stabilize and she started to look like she was only sleeping. He then stood up and said to her. "I'll just finish this Ana, then we'll go home." Then he turned to look at Eddie. His killing intent suddenly exploded out.

Eddie subconsciously took a step back. The killing intent shrouded the area with intangible pressure which would make one have difficulty breathing. He felt chills down his spine as Jon looked at him intently.

"Raah..! I will not be intimidated!" Eddie snarled, feeling unreconciled that fear was creeping in his mind. He released his own aura to shake off his fear then he rushed to Jon, leaving an after image in his spot. He threw a punch backed with all his power.

Jon was looking at the spot where Eddie was, looking as if he could not react to Eddie's speed. "Heh. I got scared for nothing, he can't even see me with my speed." He laughed to himself as he saw his fist about to connect, but Jon was still standing still.

When the punch was almost at arm's length away from Jon's head, he lifted his right hand in a seemingly slow manner but was in fact very swift. He caught Eddie's full powered punch and he did not even move, his arm did not even shake. "You've gotten slow." He turned to look at Eddie's scared face and said.

Eddie didn't even have time to think, much less to retort, as a large fist appeared near his face. He tried to retrieve his own fist but it was stuck, he was not able to move even an inch away and was only able to wait for the fist to connect to his face.

A muffled boom sounded as Jon's fist sunk in Eddie's face. At the same time, he let go of Eddie's fist so he shot back and crashed to some building materials near the area.

Everything went quiet as Jon started to walk towards the place where Eddie shot back.

***

On top of a building overlooking the secluded area, there were five people standing, watching all that had happened between Eddie, Ana and Jon. One of the people was the hooded man that took Eddie away before, Geraint.

One of them was a young girl. She was wearing a black messenger cap and a sheepskin jacket that seemed to be a little big for her. She had black hair with an A-line bob cut.

Two of them were male twins. One was wearing an all white American suite with black dress shirt and white tie. And the other was wearing an all black American suite with white dress shirt and black tie.

The last one was a middle aged, muscular man with an unkempt short hair with long stubbles with a blade scar under his right eye. He was wearing a white fitted tank top and jeans.

"He evolved." Geraint suddenly said as they saw Jon standing up while Eddie was torturing Ana.

"And not just by one level." Said the one of the twins wearing black.

"Four, brother." Added the other twin.

"Yeah, so? He's still no match to that creep. If it was me I'd already-" Quipped the young girl.

"But its not, Percival. You're way to temperamental, you would have killed that guy with the first strike. You're too manly for a little girl. That's why the boss gave you that name." The middle aged man sitting leisurely on the ledge in the middle cut the girl off. He then laughed a little after.

"You're the one to talk! Caradoc is way more manly than mine!" Percival retorted.

"Hahaha. What are you saying? Caradoc's cute! I like it. Makes me more lovable, don't you think?" Caradoc replied.

"Lovable my ass! Makes you more disgusting is what should be said." She said.

"Oh, come on, my little tomboy. Be more ladylike. Stop saying things that makes you sound like a hooligan. It ruins your cute face!" He teased her again. A kick from his right was her answer. He easily blocked it and laughed out loud.

"Hah.. I asked the boss not to put you two together on my team." Geraint sighed as he massaged his temples. "Huh?" He suddenly felt Jon's energy surge as he transformed.

"Synchronization." Caradoc said seriously as he focused on Jon. Another kick suddenly hit him and he shot to the edge of the building.

Geraint turned towards the twins. "Lionel, Bors. Get ready to rescue Eddie. Boss has plans for the guy. We don't want him dying on our watch."

"Yes sir." Lionel, the twin in the white suite, replied.

"What about me?" Percival suddenly asked as she retracted her foot from the kick.

"You stay put. You, me and Caradoc are reinforcements incase those soul guides suddenly come." Geraint answered.

"What do we do with the pair?" Bors, the twin in the black suite, asked Geraint.

"Kill the guy. He might become a hindrance to the boss' plans. Leave the girl, she's of no importance." Geraint solemnly said.

"Got it." Lionel said then the twins looked at each other then nodded as if they could see what each other were thinking and vanished from their spots.

"You tomboy! Learn some restraint will you! Don't make me mad." Caradoc stood up and suddenly yelled at Percival.

"You want a fight? Come on!" She quipped and made a gesture with both hands for Caradoc to come over.

"Hah.." Geraint massaged his temples and sighed. He did not say anymore as he looked at Jon and Eddie.

When he was almost near where Eddie was lying, Jon suddenly stopped and looked intently forward. Two men suddenly appeared between him and Eddie. They were twins and one was wearing an all black suite while the other wore an all white suite. They looked like yin and yang.

"Who are you people?" Jon asked.

"Do we answer?" Asked the twin in black.

"I don't think we should." Replied the one in white.

"But he's curious."

"Curiosity is not a valid reason to tell."

"Doesn't hurt if he's not gonna live."

"Reasonable."

"Bors." Said the one in black to Jon

"Lionel" Followed the one in white.

"Take him on?" Bors asked Lionel

"You want to try?" Lionel asked back.

"Thanks."

Jon got irritated that he was suddenly ignored and they started to talk nonsense in front of him. He wanted them to move away so he could finish Eddie off but they seemed to be there to stop him. He was a little puzzled, who are they? Are they souls too? If they wanted to protect Eddie, are they of the same in mind?

He saw Bors take off his suite and tie. He then unbuttoned the first two buttons on his dress shirt. Jon got ready to fight. He did not know how strong these new guys were, but he won't let his guard down. If he lose here, Eddie might wake up and finish off Ana, and no one could stop him then.

Bors shot towards Jon and struck a fist towards him. Jon did not move away nor did he jump forward, he waited for the guy to come to him and struck his own fist to counter.

A muffled boom was heard and Bors shot back, but he suddenly flipped in mid air and floated down beside the other twin as if there was no power to Jon's punch. Jon was alerted by that. "These are not easy opponents." He thought to himself and looked at them.

"Powerful?" Asked Lionel.

"Yeah." Bors answered.

"Together?" Lionel asked again as he began to dress down to his black dress shirt.

"Yeah."

"Sync?"

"No need."

"Okay."

"Ready?"

"Ready."

From their conversation, Jon knew they were looking down on him. It made him even more vigilant towards them so he spread put his senses to the limit and calmed himself. "Since they're twins, their powers should not be far from each other. But since they dared to look down on me despite Eddie lying there as a show of my current strength, lets me know that they are above my power level." Jon analyzed.

"Go." As if they were one person, the twins both said the same time and shot towards him simultaneously.

*Huff* Jon breathed in as he also rushed forward to meet them in the middle. He punched out both his arms to each of them and the both blocked the same time and got knocked back.

As Lionel landed, another punch materialized near his face then came along Jon's whole body. He blocked with both arms crossed together but he still got knocked back. Jon was about to pursue him again when he sensed that a kick was coming at his back. It was the other twin. He twisted his body to block the kick with a swipe of his left arm and they both got knocked back.

Lionel returned to Bors' side and asked. "Danger?"

"Yeah. Sync?" Bors asked back.

"Seems needed."

"My bad."

"No worries. Miscalculations."

"Castor!"

"Pollux!"

They both called out their guardians. Bors' was an earth humanoid entity while Lionel's was a wind humanoid type. They both synchronized, Bors had earthen armor appear all over his body while Lionel became ethereal seemingly tangible in one moment and intangible the next.

"Any suggestions?" Jon asked in his mind as he watched the twins transform.

"The softer one seems more difficult to handle. Aim for him, master." Replied the mysterious voice.

"But he doesn't seem to be hittable." Jon mused.

"Heh. That's easy, master. Use fire." Replied the voice.

"Fire, huh?" Jon pondered as an ominous smile crept on his face.
