the dead boy, did not stay dead for much longer. He opened his eyes, and pulled out his knife from his pocket. He quickly jumped to his feet and stabbed the two guards who dragged him to the execution zone.
	He ran to find the demon that had attempted to kill him and sure enough he did. The demon was drinking a cup of blood and he was startled to see the boy alive. He asked quietly in fear, “How did you survive? I stabbed you through the heart! You should be dead!” The boy grinned and explained, “You just barely missed, if you aimed just a centimeter more to the right then you would have pierced it, but that’s said.”
	The demon ran to the back of his room to get a dagger but the boy spun the knife in his hand and threw it. It flew in the air and landed right at the back of the demon’s head. The demon fell to the ground and Brazil once again, belonged to the humans. Thanks to one small 9-year old boy, humans claimed another right to live for their last 4-5 years. However, there was still much more to be done if Earth was to be set back into motion.










Chapter II
Shadow’s Plans


Lord Shadow sat in his throne room with Lord Tahoa telling him how he became the dark lord he is today. “16 years!” Lord Shadow exclaimed, “16 years I have ruled this world in darkness and that boy has been ruining everything for the past 2! Tahoa, I believe this is the time for you to show the world just exactly what kind of power you are capable of. Bring your energy to its full extent. End this war once and for all! Kill every last one of those pitiful humans!”
They walked to their planning room to order the assassination of all leaders, ambassadors, and to destroy all of my most loved ones. They sent the orders to a strange room, there were 5 figures, and they called themselves Lord Shadow’s top generals. There were 5 of them and 4 of them were arguing but one of them was just standing there smiling. The general was a little girl, about 13 years old and she loved everything and her name was Yabethro.
The 4 generals argued with each other when one of them said, “You all know what we must do! Duthfir, you are to execute all ambassadors! Yavron, you are to assassinate all leaders of the humans! Yabethro, you are to eliminate the boy known as Duelin, also known as the boy who defeated Savred!” Everyone laughed as Duthfir said, “How could our 3rd in command general lose to a low-life whelp?” “I think he’s cute.” Yabethro said happily.
“YOU THINK EVERYTHING IS CUTE!!!” Yavron shouted out in fury. “It’s time you learned to grow up little girl! I don’t care if you’re Lord Shadow’s favorite general or not! If you don’t grow up then you can count on this flail of fear smashing your face wide open!” “Leave her alone!” Savred said in anger. Yavron threatened to kill him as well until Duthfir cut in.
Duthfir then  laughed and said, “You think that flail of yours is so tough? I could drop kick that steel ball of yours into oblivion!” Yabethro smiled and giggled as they argued. They went on and on for what seemed like hours. The more they argued the more Yabethro giggled. Finally there was a man in the hall way and I think he was fed up with all the arguing.  He opened the door and walked into the shadows.
They finally heard a calm quiet voice say to them, “All of you, SHUT UP!” The man walked into the room, it was Itachi. Yabethro, still smiling, looked at him and asked what his job was. He looked at her and smiled, then he answered, “I? I am assigned to execute the boy they call Chris.” Yamitay glared at him and wished he could kill the boy. Yavron spoke out, “Well, if that’s true, then you might as well go with Yabethro to Duelin’s ship.” Itachi gazed at Yabethro.
Yavron left to fulfill his duty and Duthfir soon followed him out of the room but Yabethro and Itachi stayed inside waiting for the right time to strike. Yabethro was sitting on the table thinking about her old life from before she went to work for Lord Shadow. While she was thinking, Itachi was watching her kick her legs back and forth. He watched as she just sat there smiling, giggling about all the funny things that were going through her mind. Until a tear fell.
Itachi noticed the tear drop from her eye and asked, “Is, there, something wrong?” She looked over at him and smiled as she spoke out, “I had a life before I worked for Lord Shadow.” Itachi looked at her face and asked, “What do you mean?” She looked up at the roof and answered, “Before, I was just a little girl, I was 7 years old when my entire life came down. I was eating dinner with my parents when we heard screaming. There were demons everywhere.
My father ran outside to help fight them, but when he was fighting their generals, he died. He couldn’t win, there were 4 of them and the only person who helped him was the father of that newborn baby. My mother tried to help me get away but while we were running, we were separated from each other. There were so many people running in such giant crowds. I ran into some bushes and in the morning, I walked through the burned village, to find my parents.
I walked around while quietly crying out, “Mommy? Daddy? Where are you?” I finally came to our house but it was burned down. I curled up onto the ash-covered ground and cried for so long that someone was bound to hear me, and someone did. Savred came up from behind me, I was so scared that he would kill me, but he didn’t. He smiled and bent down, then he looked at me and asked, “Are you alright?” I looked at him and cried even more.
He put his hand on my head and shuffled my hair. He put his finger under my chin and picked my head up. He didn’t exactly seem like a demon, but rather, he just looked like a man. Although there was a black hole in his palm. He helped me up and walked me out of the forest, once we were out he picked me up and carried me. We walked through a camp of demons and when all of them saw Savred carrying me they started laughing at us, but he didn’t about them.
	He walked through crowds of them and they kept laughing and laughing until we reached a giant tent. Lord Shadow walked out but he was wearing a hood and the only part of his face I could see was his glowing red eyes. He walked over to us and asked, “Savred, where did you find this girl?” Savred answered, “I found her in the forest. She’s the only one left of her village. She has no family to watch her and I decided to take her in. I believed I could raise her to fight.”
Lord Shadow pulled off his hood and smiled at me. He put his hand on my cheek and smiled at me. Savred set me down and lead me to his tent. There were weapons and human heads hanging from the walls. He held his hand out and made a nice cozy bed for me then he walked by me, shuffled my hair, and then walked outside. I walked to my bed and fell asleep and then through the years I was learning how to fight and how to serve Lord Shadow.”
“What of your parents?” Itachi asked, “Do you still feel for them?” Yabethro looked at the ground and braided her hair as she admitted, “To tell you the truth, I don’t remember my parents at all. The only one I can remember is Savred. He’s raised me since I was a little girl. In fact I can’t even remember my parent’s names.” Yabethro started to cry so Itachi gave her a hug to feel better. She opened up a portal so that they could do their job and she felt a lot better.



























Chapter III
Battle of Egypt


Silence. Silence fills the empty desert. The wind flows by blowing the sand onto the pyramids of Egypt. Suddenly a gunshot fires and the battle for Egypt begins. Chris and I are in the middle of the fight and while we were fighting, I think we were bonding. “You know,” Chris wondered, “I’ve never really been to Egypt. I wonder how the pyramids were built.” He was holding a demon by the head while talking to me.
He didn’t seem all that interested in the fight considering the fact that they only had at least 809,000,000,000 demons. He kept talking until I told him, “Ugh, Chris, I don’t exactly think this is the best time to talk about this. But then again, that’s just me. But can you please help us out? I know it’s not that much but can’t you use that shadow clone thing you learned? I think it would really help right about now.”
He pushed a demon away from him and made at least 90,000 clones. Meanwhile, Jack and Barbossa were trying to decide who gets to kill the demon that was nailed to the ground. Naruto and Hinata were fighting back to back so it would be easier. Saria was in the ship talking to Gaara, while having a cup of lemonade. She tried to get him to laugh but all he would do is smile (And that’s hard to do (really hard to do) but at least she tried).
Everywhere you looked there were demons flying everywhere. Jack was doing a lot more running then he did fighting though. There were ships flying around in the skies dropping off reinforcements for the demons. They kept coming and coming and they wouldn’t stop coming and they wouldn’t stop firing their weapons. I punched one in the face so hard that I managed to make him fly through a pyramid and then he kept going until he hit the red sea.
Finally we heard an explosion come from the other side of the continent (How we heard that, I will never know). Shino was sending his bugs everywhere, Naruto was making hundreds of shadow-clones, and Master Chief was using every bullet he had on him. He was throwing grenades, and he was even shooting out rockets. Suddenly there was an alarm going off. It was coming from the city we were fighting right outside of. Those demons set off a nuclear bomb!
Chris and I finished off the demons we were fighting and ran towards the small town. We found the missile silo, but they just set off a nuclear bomb, they set 2 more of them to self-destruct. I told Chris to handle the 2 while I handled the 1 that was already launched. Chris ran to the control panel as fast as he could while I jumped into the air. I managed to get a hold on the tail, but there were still flames bursting out of the engine.
They were melting my mechanical arm so I had to think fast. I ran up to the cone of the missile and punched it so hard that it started to change course. It started spinning around and I could barely hold on. I jumped off of it because it started to head towards the ground and then sank my feet into the soft shifty sand as the missile flew down towards me. I readied my palms for the biggest catch they would ever get, and hopefully not their last.
	The missile landed straight at me as I grabbed the cone and tried to hold it up. But it was pretty heavy especially considering the fact that it was 600 times the size of a normal human being. Plus, the fact that the engines were running on nitro graidfulkin (A VERY POWERFUL FUEL, SO POWERFUL THAT IF IT WAS EQUIPPED TO A SNAIL IT COULD OUTRUN SONIC WITHOUT A HITCH).
Chris got to the control panel and tried to shut the self-destruct sequence down. After a while, he shouted, “Wait a second! Why am I wasting my time doing this, when I can just shut it down the easy way?!” Chris grinned and smashed the control panel. However his plan didn’t exactly work too well. He heard an alarm go off then he saw a giant screen that was saying “Self destruct in 30 seconds.”
I managed to throw the bomb into the ocean so I went to go check on Chris, and who would’ve thought? He planted a bomb, and he was running like a cow that was about to be marked. He ran by me, grabbed my arm, and started dragging me with him shouting, “WE HAVE TO GET THE **** OUT OF HERE!!!” We managed to get away from the explosion but in a way that we couldn’t believe at all. It was thanks to Lord Tahoa!!!
He appeared right behind us and sucked in the entire explosion through his mouth. Also, he surprisingly didn’t gain any weight. Chris looked at his smiling face and asked, “Is that like a beverage to you or something?” Lord Tahoa turned around and grinned at us, as he gazed at the marks in his palms. He looked straight at us and then he gently closed his eyes. Suddenly he opened his eyes and sent out a giant wave of lightning from his fingertips.
He aimed it right above us and hit our friends who were coming to help us. I pushed Chris down and stepped in the way of the lightning. Suddenly, Lord Shadow appeared next to Tahoa and grinned as I fell to the ground. He looked at us and then he glared at Dalana who was still flying towards us as fast as he could. Dalana sent out a fireball towards Lord Shadow but then Lord Tahoa blocked it.
Lord Shadow walked up to me and said, “Hello Duelin. How’s the arm? Is it improving? No? Good.” I tried to attack him but I couldn’t get up. The lightning had completely stunned me. Lord Shadow grinned and kneed me in the stomach. I curled up and held my stomach in pain as Chris tried to help me up. However Dalana wasn’t going to stand for what Lord Shadow did so he flew over even faster.















     Chapter IV
The Great Loss


Dalana flew over as fast as he could but he was shot in the side and he fell to the ground as Tahoa laughed at him. Dalana powered down and tried to get up from the burning ash covered ground. He fired a couple of energy bolts at Lord Shadow but Tahoa got in the way and absorbed them. He laughed as Dalana ran towards them and started punching Lord Tahoa as much as he could so that he could get to Lord Shadow.
Dalana was punched in the jaw so hard that it broke his teeth and sent him flying into a wall. With Dalana out-cold and everyone else unable to help us, I felt adrenalin pumping through my veins. I tried to fight Lord Tahoa but even with all my strength and all of my strongest blows, he kept absorbing all of my energy. Eventually, I gave up all hope, and so I was about to let the icy cold hand of death perch its power on my shoulder.
Until, I heard a huge crash, it came from right behind me. Kapuza managed to break the rock wall that was keeping them out. However, Lord Shadow wanted to keep them away from him, especially Saria. Lord Tahoa and Lord Shadow tried to vanish but right before they disappeared Dalana grabbed them both and threw them up against a wall. He stuck his hands in their stomachs and hung them on the wall.
He told Alotha and Dolosi to get everyone out immediately, and that now it was his time. I didn’t want to leave him, so I grabbed him and shouted, “No! It’s not your time! You don’t need to die! You’re the closest one to me and the only one I would ever think of as a father!” Dolosi grabbed me and dragged me away from him as I struggled to get out of his grip. Finally, we were taken back to the ship while Shadow and Tahoa were still pelted up against a wall.
They both started laughing until Dalana demanded, “What’s so funny? Are you so afraid of the fact that I might be able to kill you that you’ve finally cracked? Or is it that you’re not afraid of death, or maybe it’s just because you know that you’ll have finally killed your old teacher?” Shadow looked at him and said arrogantly, “Foolish old man, do you really think you can actually kill the king of shadows? Because you can’t, nor can anyone else.”
Dalana began to charge up his power and he was about to blow himself up and take them with him, until Shadow asked, “Dalana, before you kill yourself for no reason, I want to ask you a question. Do you fear death, or does death fear you?” Dalana glared into his eye and demanded, “Just what does that mean!?” Lord Shadow grinned and put his hand on Dalana’s arm. He started to pull Dalana’s arm out of his stomach and healing his wound.
Dalana pushed his arm back into his stomach and gathered all of his energy into his heart, even the energy he needed to breathe. Finally with his last words “Good bye Duelin.” Then his body imploded and blew up almost half the continent. I was sitting on the balcony of the ship, watching, suffering, and wishing that I could have him back, so that I could still have the man who was like my father with me whenever I needed him.
However, I couldn’t, he was gone, and he will be gone until the end of time. The next day we went to his funeral, and on that day of sadness and tears, everyone wept, even God himself wept for the sacrifice of Dalana. The rain continued on and on, like the same day repeated everyday. For weeks the rain continued without end, as the entire planet still mourned Dalana’s death. From the people to the plants and animals, everyone cried without end.





Chapter V
Assassination Duty


Meanwhile, General Yavron was entering the borders of Russia. He managed to reach the capitol even though he was just strutting through the snow while guns and lasers are being loaded. They all fire at him but still even though he is being shot and blasted continuously, he still struts through it all. Some men ran out of the building and he just walked through the crowd. They kept shooting him and whacking him with their guns but it all just faded through him.
Once he was through the crowd, he turned around and glared at them all and then they just blew up. He turned back around and walked into the building and still strutting he reached the Prime Minister’s office. The man’s name was Rash`u and he wasn’t just some pushover, because he could also fight, pretty well too. However, he was still no match the power of Yavron. With his work done in Russia, Yavron then traveled to Japan to kill their Prime Minister.
It took him but a moment, and then he was off to America, with the last political leader in the world. He was the most heavily guarded than all of the other leaders of the world. Yavron (instead of strutting) smashed through the window of the president’s office. “So,” Yavron asked, “who is the great president this time? He certainly looks young. Let’s take a look and see just who he is.” The man quickly turned around and sucker-punched Yavron in the eye.
The president grinned and said, “I am President Taylor!” He pulled 2 double-sided swords and tore off his suit. He was wearing some robes and then he said, “Did I ever mention that I used to watch Star Wars when I was a kid?” Yavron glared at him and threw off his hood. It turned out that he was a shade, and not just any shade; he was the last shade in the world. He transformed into one of the most dangerous, vicious, ruthless, deadliest creatures in Hell!
Yavron grinned and said arrogantly, “Behold, the horns of a dragon, the bones of the devil, eyes of a demon, claws of a falcon, feet of a blood crow, wings of angel, and to top it all off, the blood-lust . . . . . of . . . THE BLACK BLOOD EYE DRAGON!!!!!! Behold, I am the true General Yavron!” The president tried to fight him but his blows didn’t work, in fact, they didn’t even make a bruise on his nose. He was just too powerful. No one could defeat him.
With Yavron’s duty complete, he left to find Savred. However while he was leaving, something happened. His black spot started to ache; he fell to his knees, tore a hole in the top of his shirt, and tried to figure out why his black spot was hurting. He immediately knew what was wrong. He took a vial from his cape and shoved it down his throat. He got up slowly, fixed his clothes, and began to walk again as if nothing had ever happened.















Chapter VI
Sector 25

While Lord Shadow was so cleverly thinking ahead about everything that might happen, something very unexpected happened. There was an explosion in the west wing of his castle.
