Beyond The Stars


Chapter 508: Fight to the Brink

Narrator: Furious over the attack on Nairo Drogen, Zeth and Sasha prepare to fight Sherra and Kogen.

Sherra: Your overconfidence is amusing.

*Zeth tries to punch Sherra with his right hand but she blocks it with her arm. Zeth then charges his left arm with a lot of magic*

Zeth: Take this!

*Sherra actually looks scared for a moment and holds up both arms. Zeth punches her with enough power to push her back. He then swipe-kicks her to knock her away*

*Zeth pursues her and has a flashback to when Korobu annihilated him back in Kogen’s fortress during the Enigmus incident*

Zeth: This is my first fight against a Council of Demons member since Korobu kicked my ass. It’s time to show that my growth has paid off!

*Zeth is then hit by Kogen who slams into him rolled up into a ball. Zeth is knocked to the side and rolls on the ground until coming to a complete stop*

*Suddenly, ghostly hands start holding Zeth down as Sherra walks up to him*

Sherra: You’ve become powerful enough to hurt me. I don’t like that.

*Meanwhile, Kogen is rolling around like a ball in circles around Sasha*

Sasha: Roll around all you want. Nothing will stop me from torturing you before you face your demise.

*Kogen starts rolling toward Sasha to attack her. She is ready and attempts a punch but Kogen maneuvers around the punch, unrolls, and then kicks her in the chin*

*Sasha looks surprised*

Sasha: (Thinking) That’s some great maneuverability!

*Kogen follows up his attack by slamming his tail into Sasha which knocks her back*

*Zeth is still pinned down by the ghostly hands. Sherra prepares to shoot a ghostly beam from her index finger*

Sherra: You will finally be executed, you troublesome boy.

*She shoots the beam at Zeth*

*Some blood is flowing onto the ground and Sherra looks shocked*

Sherra: Impossible!

*Zeth breaks free of the ghostly hands and stands up. He is in Raging Impact Mode. Some blood is flowing down the right side of his head*

*Zeth smiles confidently*

Sherra: That beam should have blasted right through your head!

Zeth: Raging Impact Mode increases my defensive capabilities. It was one of my father’s abilities. You’ll just have to do with the wound.

*Zeth forms and then releases a Shooting Star at Sherra. She is caught in it and blown back*

*Sasha is still fighting Kogen. She lands a punch on Kogen’s face*

Sasha: That demon reincarnation truly did give you tremendous power. Your previous self was but a weak child compared to how you are now.

*Kogen retaliates by wrapping his tail around her left leg to trip her and then kicks her upwards*

*Kogen looks up and releases a powerful red beam from his mouth at her*

Sasha: He had this attack as a mortal.

*Sasha summons a Hell Vulture in the sky and rides away on it before the beam hits her. She then looks to the ground and doesn’t see Kogen anywhere*

*Kogen is coming upwards from directly below. He has a red aura with energy spikes coming out of all over his body. From directly below, the spiked-ball Kogen slams into the Hell Vulture. The spikes kill it and also damage Sasha, as well as knocking her off and onto the ground*

*The spiked-ball Kogen goes after Sasha again*

Sasha: Those energy spikes. Yet another ability he had as a mortal.

*Sasha transforms into her Hell Ape form and gets ready to attack*

Sasha: (Thinking) I should blast it away with a ranged attack but I don’t have enough time to do so. This is going to hurt but I have to do it!

*Sasha’s magic-charged right Hell Ape arm punches spiked-ball Kogen as he reaches her*

*The punch is strong enough to send Kogen flying back, but Sasha’s fist was also pierced by the spikes so now some blood is flowing from it*

Sasha: Gah! Damn! That hurt so much that I’m going to kill you by carving out your insides!

*Meanwhile, Zeth is still fighting Sherra*

Sherra: You may not have noticed yet but you are the one at the disadvantage here.

*Sherra lands multiple punches on Zeth who is in Raging Star Mode now*

Zeth: Quit your bluffing!

*Zeth retaliates with his own punches and then kicks Sherra back some*

Sherra: Let me show you why. Cerberus!

*Cerberus stops fighting angels and comes over to Sherra*

Zeth: Cerberus alone doesn’t give you an advantage.

Sherra: I didn’t say I was done.

*Sherra raises her right arm and a portal opens. Suddenly, more monsters come out of the portal. They are various types of four-legged beasts*

*Zeth now starts to look concerned*

Zeth: Whoa, that’s a lot of vicious monsters…

*A short distance away, there is a large explosion. Sasha (holding onto Salina) is blown toward Zeth. The explosion was caused by Floatlite who had gone over toward Sasha with Salina*

*Then, Kogen and Floatlite join Sherra and the other monsters*

*Sasha and Salina are taken by surprise*

Salina: When did all of these monsters show up!?

Zeth: Sherra opened a portal and let them all out.

Sherra: Everyone attack at once!

*All of the beasts plus Sherra and Kogen release ranged magic energy attacks*

*Zeth, Sasha, and Salina all have their eyes opened wide*

*A massive explosion is caused by the combined attacks*

*Zeth, Sasha, and Salina escape most of the explosion but still took a lot of damage. They are breathing heavily*

Sherra: Still alive? What a shame.

Kogen: It just means more pain for you.

Sherra: You see, this was part of our plan. We were to hunt you two down and lure you into a false sense of security. Then we’d open a portal letting in more of our monsters. It’s worked because we’ve driven you to the brink. I believe that the Dark Goddess is most concerned about you two more than anyone.

Zeth: *huff huff* Sasha… We can’t take all of them on at once. There’s only one option.

Sasha: *huff huff* I know what you’re thinking.

Salina: *huff huff* So, you’re both going to use it?

Zeth: Yeah. We have to use Soul Power.

Narrator: Things were looking good to start the fight but a plan by the demons to overwhelm Zeth and Sasha has worked! Zeth and Sasha will now rely on their Soul Power! What will their Soul Power be like?
