Part 1
Training development ark
Mystery is then seen staring at Shenky when suddenly he broke out a mischievous smile
Crips up to Shenky feigning worry
"Heeeeyyy Shenky"
The sobbing Shenky glances towards the source of the sound being Mystery walking towards
Shenky with a depressed voice says
"What do want?"
Mystery with a caring voice
"Well simple I just wanted to know whats got you so down?"
"Why the hell would you care?"
"Simple if I figure out what's got you so down and bring a solution..."
"I can complete this mission"
Shenky voice becomes thoughtful as if realizing something
"You know what I realized Mystery"
Mystery curios tilts his head slightly while getting closer
"What?"
"You're a greedy,decieteful potential filled brat like Tendo"
A moment of silence passes until it was broken by Mystery's angered voice
"DON'T EVER COMPARE TO A CUNNING FOX LIKE—"
Suddenly Shenky,Mystery and the rest stared north up to the sky
There was nothing but they felt something
Shenky thinks
'Why do i feel comforted no i feel something I haven't felt in a long time'
Mystery thinks
'Whatever this aura im sensing is,I hate it and I need to complete this mission soon'
Unknown thinks
'Well this will be interesting'
'It seems as if a spatial barrier is stopping-'
Kogetsu couldn't even finish his thought before seeing something
He saw Something that couldn't be described as an individual more of a fundamental concept
As he thinks his energy begins rising
'Whatever that was it seems it's currently imprisoned... but I don't know how long will it last'
Shadow silently stares in the same direction as everyone else
He thinks slightly irritated
'I have the urge just to go in the direction of this...energy...but'
A flash of jagiks mischievous grin appears in his mind
'This feels similar to the atmosphere Jagik was emitting but...good'
'How am I am suppose to keep up with all of this,It's...starting to become...
Spirit body cracks again
'Overwhelming'
The scene glitches as it shifts to Shenky seemingly contemplating
Mystery than broke his train of thought
"If your so curious on what's making you feel this way,than let's go investigate it and understand it at it's core"
Shenky silently stares at Mystery before saying
"Fine but don't ask for help from me if you're in danger"
"Hmph"
Mysterys chaotic white aura begins emitting as he confidently says with a grin plastered to his face
"Don't worry as i don't plan to"
Shenky slowly gets up as he gets into a weird jumping posture
He says mockingly
"Just try to keep up"
Within an instance,Mystery simply heard a thunderous boom as the place Shenky once stood was now molten hot
Mystery thought to himself
"Guess i can't keep him waiting,everyone else will understand the situation and follow"
Mystery instantly disappeared as only white energy was left behind where he stood
Unknown who was secretly listening to the conversation though
"Can't take to long now"
He than becomes black flames
Scorching the floor
The scene shifts to Kogetsu who witnessed all of this as he thought
"Hmph those guys are idiots to be this dedicated to a mission"
Suddenly he remembered Unknowns words as a massive blue phoenix flies past the cave
Squawking loudly scaring all the animals from hiding as millions of varing
Birds flew out Humming birds
pigeons,eagles,phoenixs,crows and many more
He thinks while witnessing this
"You know what maybe i should just go,
I mean it should be good entertainment'
Kogetsu than turned into millions of colorful particles,disappearing
Silence than sweep through the area as Shadow was left alone still thinking
"Since everyone is going there i might as well join maybe I'll understand this feeling if I go"
Shadow thought
Shadow stomps the ground and launches out of the stratosphere
As if it was immediate everyone is shown how they arrived as how they previously left
Mystery and Shenky stare at each other and in unison say
"I WAS HERE FIRST"
"NO I WAS HERE,HEY STOP COPYING ME...STOOOP"
Shadow floats into frame as he stretched his hand to reach for something
His hand stops as if touching a wall
'This is a spatial barrier...but why does it feel different'
Unknown and Mystery appear next to him touching the spatial barrier
Unknown than says
"They'res something beyond this point but I can't-
Suddenly everyone hears a loud bang echoing through reality
Shenky is seen furiously punching the spatial barrier but it had no signs of cracking or even denting
Mystery immediately stops Shenky
"SHENKY HOLD ON IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE USING BRUTE FORCE WILL HELP"
Shenky glances at Mystery and with a slightly emotional voice he says
"Than how do we break this barrier...because this feeling of nostalgia is DRIVING ME INSANE!
Shenky furiously punched the barrier again but suddenly cracks in reality began appearing
Unknown stares at Shenky and than said with a cold voice
"Shenky let's say if you did somehow break the barrier what if you destroy this source of nostalgia?"
Shenky than stopped his assault for a moment before stopping completely
With an impatient voice Shenky says
"What should we do than?"
Unknown said flatly
"That's what we still need to figure out"
Unknown than glanced at Kogetsu
And said demandingly
"Kogetsu have any destabilizing skills"
Kogetsu with a sarcastic tone but truthful
"Of course I do"
Unknown than glanced at Shenky
"Shenky i'm going to need you to perfectly excute a precise strike on a spot Shadow and Mystery will find"
Mystery than said
"I'm guessing we're going to need to do this perfectly on the first try right"
Unknown grinned and said
"Right on the money because based on how the system operates,we'll only have one shot to do this before the system fixes the mistake"
Everyone silently acknowledged the words as Shadow and mystery closed their eyes
Time slowed
Shadow thought to himself
'Follow the traces of essence...sense it,control it just like how i was taught'
Mystery thought
"Wears the denses point of essence being focused on"
In unison time resumed as they hurriedly snaped open there eyes snd shouted out
"FOUND IT!"
Single point further along the barrier glowed white
Mystery shouted
"Shenky,Kogetsu on Shadow's mark excute the plan"
In unison They yelled
"RIGHT!"
Shadow closed his eyes again as if in his mental realm he saw waves of energy
He focused his concentration
The waves of energy got thinner and thinner until Shadow heard jagiks voice
"Hey again,seems like you been not focusing on the task"
Shadow stayed silent as he continued to focus
Jagik continued
"Sighs what a shame,it seems I can't stop you from meeting her,whatever but...I might as well do this"
Suddenly Shadow spirit cracked again as he began feeling a crushing sense of dread
Hearing things his never heard before but with each voice or remark he heard
His expression twisted
"I'll save you,I will protect you,your simply a weakling,SHADOW,don't be scared,KAGUMI!,I just wsnt to feel happy,cut the crap,,I mean it's only fair if i repay my dept to you,right Skiroe"
Suddenly it went silent,shadow than took a deep breath as his eyes snapped opened
His faced filled with unbroken resolve
He saw a glowing white point as he shouted out
"NOW!"
Kogetsu than was enveloped in black green energy he than said
"DOWNGRADE!"
In that same instance Shenky threw a devastating punch as if it could destroy reality itself
And immediately a loud bang with the sound of shattering glass accompanying it
Back within the mental realm
Jagik sighed while smiling
"Honestly I just wanted to see him break one more time but I didn't expect to see you so early
Smiles mischievously and with a calm yet eerie voice said
...Shedoden
As Jagik and Shedoden faced each other the mental sea they stood on rippled as everything shifts back to the scene of the spatial barrier shattering
Shadows eyes lit up blue as if he was touched in the soul,he saw a girl
Dressed in a pink,purple spirit patterned
Kimono with white sneakers
Long black hair,light brown skin,golden irises,a face that could melt ice
With an expression filled with sincere warmth
Shadow thoughtfully thought
"Even though it was the first time i saw you... it's as if i knew you for over... two life times
Spirit cracks again
But he than said in unison with the girl awkwardly yet warmly
"...hey"
