Chapter 17 - Apologize

*The day arrived and the trio meets up to discuss.*

Mari- So you ready?

Forge- Who do you think I am. I don't think he's ready to fight me!

Justus- So wanna learn the plan or not?

Forge- Just tell me and get it over with.

Justus- Okay here it is...

*Justus goes into a elaborate plan and the best plan to beat the Jack.*

Mari- Easy enough.

Forge- Lets start this then!!!

*Forge walks into the city, everyone staring and whispering as he enters the arena.*

Mari- This is nerve-racking....

*Forge takes a big gasp as Justus and Mari sit down. The stadium is empty only them sitting down and what it seems to be like mini drones flying around.*

Mari- WHOA WHAT IS THAT!

Justus- You just now noticed them?

Mari- HUH HOW LONG ARE THEY BEEN HERE!?!

Justus- sigh they been here ever since the tournament started, how else do you think people been watching the fights?

Justus- I heard it was a gift from the Diamond Kingdom.

Mari- Huh well now lets focus on the fight Infront of us.

*Forge starts shaking but not out of fear but of excitement as the 2 fighters meet face to face.*

The Jack- I hope you got stronger

Forge- Just shut up so I can end this.

*Forge pulls out his new spear and The Jack cracks his knuckles as the battle commences.*

*This battle being so big that the whole kingdom is watching it.*

Forge- (I won't lie his aura is intense, can make anybody drop but not me, it won't work on ME!)

*It kicks off with Forge trying to stab him with spear, its quick precise and lastly deadly but the Jack isn't slacking off despite his size he's quite agile.*

The Jack- Is that all you got?

*The Jack with high speed punches aiming to Forge face but Forge moves under and slices his arm, drawing first blood.*

The Jack- A slippery one aren't we?

*The Jack doesn't seem effected as he proceeds to pick a stone pillar that's in the arena and uses it as a weapon.*

Forge- I can't get a hit at all.

*Forge dodges the attacks and then jumps on top of it and starts dashing the Jack but then the Jack with his strength crushes the stone pillar.*

Forge- NO!

*Forges dropping down as debris starts falling on him and with him as he turns to the Jack, all he sees is The Jack hands inches away as Forge shouts.*

Forge- ETRA!

*In a surge of speed Etra flies under Forge and saves him.*

Forge- That was close... Now lets show him our new strength!

*Forge flying on Etra quickly navigates and pilots around the attacks.*

Forge- ETRA KEEP GOING!

 *Forge then drops down as The Jack throws a piece of the broken stone pillar at him.*

Forge- I won't miss.

*Forge throws his spears breaking the middle of the boulder as he then ducks his head down as Etra blasts Relentless Sky as its a direct hit on The Jack.*

The Jack- FORGE I TRULY UNDERESTIMATED YOU, YOU ARE THEIR SON.

*The Jack speeds up as Etra moves down and pick up Forge again.*

Forge- Etra do you know a way to go faster?!

*The Jack close by as Forge starts stressing.*

Forge- Shit...

*Forge then decides to try something out.*

Forge- I hope Justus was right!

*He places his hand on Etra body and gives Etra more of his Empath.*

Forge- (Justus said that if Etra is made from my Empath then in theory I should be able to transfer my Empath.)

*After he does that, Etra looks normal before his body starts changing, he gets bigger, sharper and having a black outer for his body with the inner like belly of him being yellow*

*Etra chirps as the Empath inside starts bursting*

Forge- What's that Etra? You have new move?

*Etra starts speed up as Forge yells the new move*

Forge- Arc-shift!

 *Etra moves in lighting speed as The Jack even gets lost with this new speed Forge starts getting slashes in*

*The speed being so fast, spark start shooting out.*

Forge- WE ARE BEYOND YOU!

*Forge and Etra in this form bond being full as the 2 react with enhance senses, their speed going even higher as they quickly turn and like a bullet they blitz strike into The Jack.*

Forge- MY STRENGTH WITH ETRA SPEED!

*They rush into The Jack, it was powerful not enough to take out The Jack but to heavily damage The Jack.*

Forge- That was good hit Etra.

*Forge coughs up blood.*

Forge- Shit too much Empath

The Jack- A 2V1 ISN'T FAIR LETS MAKE IT EVEN!

*The Jack hits the ground with such force it creates a dust cloud.*

Forge- uhh, Etra can you see.

*Etra keeps moving, his speed being so fast it gets rid of the dust but suddenly.*

Forge- ETRA WATCH OUT!

*The Jacks hand appears as Etra is too fast to brake as they collide.*

Forge- (Ugh, my head hurts...what happend to Etra.?)

*Forge opens his eyes and sees Etra around him like a shield, now back to his original Form.*

Forge- Etra...heal up, I'll finish this!

*Forge stumbles still shaken from the attack as the dust still hasn't settled.*

Forge- Silex it's your time to shine!

*He summons Silex as the 2 both try to sense The Jack.*

Forge- Got him!

*Silex shoots his tongue at it and hit him*

Forge- Hah its over!

*The Dust settles slightly as they see The Jack fall*

Forge- That was easy then I thought.

*The crowd from outside starts cheering and shouting but notice something else.*

The Jack- Yes that would have taken me out.

*Forge freezes up as he hears The Jack voice behind him.*

Forge- But how I sensed and saw you fall....

The Jack- You did but that wasn't the true me.

*As the dust disappears, Forge turns around and sees 3 Jacks standing behind him.*

The Jack- I haven't used this power in a minute, allow me to introduce my power, Seperation! And since you allowed me to use this, its fair for you to hear my real name...

*As he says that the camera starts buffering.*

Justus- I'm assuming the other Royals are preventing is name being leaked.

The Jack- I go by the name August.

August- Allow us to kill you!

*Drones starts playing again*

*As he says that he sees him punch towards him but Forge quickly dodges but Silex is not so lucky...*

August- Your tired, this ends now.

Mari- Damn it!

*Forge drops as he feels his end as a clash is heard again.* 

Forge- YOU IDIOT!

*Forge looks up and sees Mari block August blow with his axe.*

August- Damn brat, interrupting a duel to the death is not only disrespectful but when its too a Royal this can be considered a act of treason.

Mari- Treason.. Fuck that, I'm declaring this an act of war!

Justus- Haah guess this is what we are doing now...

*The drones start bugging again as a voice out of them are heard.*

King and Queen- WHAT ARE YOU DOING!

August- HAHAHA ITS FINE, I'll end all 3 of you.

Mari- You better pray that you can!
