Chapter 25
Leap towards darkness
“Where’s Lia?” Retribution growled.
“Her? I know where she is.” Shixin replied
“Then tell me!”
“Organization thirteen’s base.” Shixin calmly replied
“What!? What do you want with her?” Retribution yelled
“Ehh, something about, ‘princess of heart’ or something like that.” Shixin nodded “I don’t see the point…..I could help you, but, you’d have to do something for me….”
“What something?”
“Just……some….demolition of a world.” Shixin started
“Tch, better be.” Retribution intruded
“It not like I’d ask you to do something stupid.” Shixin mumbled “Anyway, there’s this world in an alternate dimension that well…could and would get in the organization’s way. I’ll give you Lia but, I want you to take out that world first.”
“How do I know I can trust you?”
“I’m the only choice you got.” Shixin ended, fading away into darkness.
“Strait to the point, eh? Why are you helpin’ me anyway?” Retribution said, still weary of Shixin’s proposal.
“Well….I wanna take control of the organization, but I need everything to go smoothly….so…you’re good start.” Shixin’s voice echoed.
“Any chance I could get Lia first?” Retribution joked.
“Yeah…..if I was retarded….besides, why should I help you get her when she’s right behind you?” Shixin stated.
Retribution heard quite foot step emit from behind him. “What!?” Retribution yelled as he turned. He saw Lia, on her knelt down on the floor of the manor with Shixin standing beside her.
“My Johnny…” Lia said, turning her head towards the ground.
“See….now we’re all together.” Shixin taunted. “Now if you wouldn’t mind helping me.” Shixin stated, his voice growing more serious.
“Just take me to the place, and I’ll finish the rest.” Retribution started, only staring at Lia.
“…Even now….you just can’t let her go.” Shixin mocked, as he grabbed Lia by the collar of her shirt.
“Let her go!” Retribution yelled with a fierceness.
“Why? So she can be absorbed by your ever lasting darkness?” Shixin started. “Oh, well….take her.” Shixin said as he lifted her and threw her towards Retribution, who caught her. Lia was straining for breath as she had just been gagged by her own collar. “There’s not much time before she gets tainted.”
“Tainted.” Retribution said, astounded. “And how do you know about that?”
“I really don’t…but I do know that darkness tends to spread throughout things it hasn’t all really taken.” Shixin explained. “So…ah…there it goes now.”
Lia was seemingly engulfed in darkness. Her skin turned a dark silver and her clothes changed and they were like Retribution’s. She no longer wore a dress, but tight black jeans. She slowly turned and looked up to Retribution; she placed her warm palm on his cold face. “Hm…hello.” Lia greeted slyly. Instead of answering, Retribution pulled her hand off of his face. “Hm…thought you missed me. Oh well, wanna go anyway? Always good to destroy something.” Lia said her voice as sly as a fox’s.
Retribution looked down at her. He nodded his head slightly. “Okay…”
“Okay! Here.” Shixin interrupted, lashing his left arm out to the side. A dark portal appeared beside him. “This will lead you there, and it will stay here, so you can get back.” Shixin explained.
“C’mon! Let’s go!” Lia yelled as she grabbed Retribution’s wrist and with great force, pulled him into the portal with her.
As they got there, Retribution landed flat on the grassy ground, Lia standing over him. “You mind not being so clumsy?”
“You mind not throwing me around?” Retribution said as he pulled himself up. “So this is it huh...Looks odd.”
