Chapter 13- Soul Bind

*The girl's purple aura explodes out of her, her aura looks like a lava lamp*

???: *she has a big smile on her face* YOU READY ASSHOLE!?

Tank: *he smiles* Show me what you got, little girl! *She extends her right hand out, she holds her palm towards Tank, suddenly a purple fire forms in her palm, she laughs as she shoots it at Tank, Tank jumps out of the way but when he looks back, it's actually lava* *Tank talks in his head* Her sub element is lava. She could close me in and take my mobility away. *Tank dashes towards her, he goes for a left punch but she uses her right arm to push on his left wrist to push the punch away*

???: When you soul bind, you gain a strength increase, that's how we mabiki users become strong. *She throws out a left punch*

Tank: *he smiles* Yeah I know. *The girls arm freezes*

???: You're kidding-!?

Tank: *he chuckles as Rebecca runs to a different part of the theater* Did you forget she was here? Come on! *Tank punches her across the face with his right fist* I'm not one for help but-! *Tank grabs her face with both hands and headbutts her* But I know when I'm out classed! *She stumbles back, she throws her left hand out, shooting lava at him, tank dodges* Seems like someone doesn't know how to use her lava! *She runs at Tank, she throws a left punch, tank blocks it with his right arm, he slides back from the force, while he is sliding, she runs at tank and kicks him in the head with her right foot, tank stumbles back, she gets a solid punch in the chest with her left fist, sending him flying back into the wall*

???: I don't need to know if you are sitting still! *She shoots the lava out of her right hand but before it hits him, a thick wall of ice blocks Tank, she growls and looks around, she sees Rebecca hiding behind chairs, she pulls her left arms back, she charges lava but before she can do any, Tank punches her across the face from her left, she rolls across the theater, she slowly gets up* I feel so belittled needing to use soul binding abilities but so be it!! *She puts her left fist out and holds it there, suddenly her lava aura starts to form something*

Tank: That can't be good! *Tank runs at her, as he gets close, her aura makes a bow, she aims it at Tank, she slowly raises her right hand and forms a lava arrow, she puts it on the bow, Tank's pupils shrink* SHIT!!

???: *she pulls back the lava arrow* Miyamoto's Transfix. *Rebecca peaks out of the chair to see her bow and arrow, she sees it aimed at Tank*

Rebecca: Shit-!! Tank!! *She throws her right arm up, making a wall of ice spikes to her but before it can hit her, she shoots the arrow, a loud bang can be heard from the arrow hitting the wall, Tank stops running, they all stare at Tank, Tank slowly looks at his right shoulder to see a half dollar sized hole in his shoulder, it doesn't bleed from the lava burning the wound, Tank grunts and grabs it*

???: You should be proud of yourself. Making a mabiki user actually use their abilities. *She aims at Tank again* Miyamoto's Transfix. *She forms another lava arrow but before she back pulls it back, Rebecca freezes her right arm, her pupils shrink in frustration* I'M DOWN DEALING WITH YOU, BITCH!! *she turns and aims at Rebecca* SOUL BIND, NEGATIVE!! *suddenly the lava arrow is covered in flames* MIYAMOTO'S TRANSFIX!! *she shoots the arrow, the arrow has so much heat that when it comes within a two meter radius, it melts anything nearby, leaving a hug hole in the wall of the theater, leading outside* That should do it! *suddenly her torso and arms are frozen, Her head jerks to where it came from, she sees Rebecca on stage, on the other side of the theater from where she shot the arrow* H-how did you-!? *Almost instantly, something dashes behind her with a silver glare in their eyes, she turns to be met with a heavy left punch to the face from Aiden* MIRACLE BOY-!? *out of nowhere, Tank kicks her in the chest with his left foot, breaking the ice and stabbing her with the ice shards, she coughs up blood as she stumbles back* H-how are you two still standing!?

Tank: The lousy shot to the shoulder? You really think that will take me down?

Aiden: I have too much stuff to do before I die. *He looks up at her, his eyes glow silver with his dark purple aura flowing out of him* Like hell I will roll over and die. *He dashes at her and punches her with his left arm again, she blocks it, her pupils shrink from the amount of force behind the punch, she flies back into some chairs, she grunts as she stands up, her pupils shrink in fear*

Stolen novel; please report.

???: *she talks in her head* I'm in trouble if I don't kill him now! He has one arm and no training with his power so I have the advantage! *She quickly pulls out her sword with her right hand* but the issue is-! *Suddenly Tank is in front of her* He has back up! *She swings her sword at Tank, Aiden runs in and blocks the sword with his left arm, Tank quickly kicks her with his right leg but she blocks it with her left arm, together Tank and Aiden attack her at the same time, Tank throws a left punch while Aiden does a right kick to her chest, making her slide back, she sees them whisper before Aiden suddenly runs to the left at the speed at sound, while she was distracted, Tank rushes in, she swings her sword at him, Tank kicks the blade with his right foot and does a 360 left kick to her face, Tank quickly follows up quickly with a right punch to her left ribs, a left punch across the face, he goes for a right punch but before he can, she quickly stabs a lava arrow into his right forearm, it starts melting through the lower part of his forearm, as his arm is melting, she quickly does a downward slice with her sword onto his left shoulder, getting stuck halfway, Tank coughs up blood, she let's go of the sword and does a 360 kick to his chest with her right foot, breaking his ribs, sending him sliding back, she then runs, jumps up and does a front flip and slams her right heel into the sword making it cut deeper, Tank tries to punch her with his right fist but misses, she quickly counters with a fast right punch*

???: Good fight. *The punch lands and sends him flying into a pile of chairs, it completely knocks out Tank, before she could understand what happened, it sounds like a sonic boom behind her, she turns around, her pupils shrink, it's Aiden with his right fist pulled all the way back with a huge dark purple aura* *it flashes back to when him and Tank whispered to each other*

Tank(Past): Aiden, prove your worth. I'm going to fight her one on one. I need you to tell Rebecca to stay out of the fight and I need you to attack her when she is open but I need it to be the finishing blow.

Aiden(Past): Are you insane? She will kill you! Let Rebecca help you at least!

Tank(Past): *smiles* She's a samurai! She focuses too hard on the one on one to the point she forgets about her surroundings! That's the point in proving your worth! Rebecca will make her remember her surroundings if she attacks but I need to distract her so you can attack! If you are truly going to save these people then I need you to work with me as a team! I know Marley didn't go into great detail but us fighting a mabiki user when we don't have any, as Marley likes to put it, "it's like fighting a water pokemon with a fire pokemon". So we must work together. Not only that, all mabiki users have an element and three types of techniques, positive, negative and eclipse. She used positive to make a bow, she used her element to make arrows and negative to enhance her power with her arrows. Eclipse is an enhanced technique that even masters struggle with so I don't think she can do that but don't let your guard down. The only way to stay on a decent playing field is to stay close quarters with her. You must find an opening and attack her with that new found power you have before I die. Got it?

Aiden(Past): I'm not sure if I can. I can't even control it! I have had it come out before but I don't know what I'm doing!

Tank(Past): You are the only one that can. I have advice for you. Think of something that makes you angry, use your hatred to force it out. Mabiki is emotions. Use them. *It shows Aiden's mom dying in his arms, Aiden talks in his head*

Aiden: I should've been strong… Why didn't I save her…? Why didn't I stay home…? Aren't I supposed to be a hero or am I too weak…? *it shows Aiden punching her in the chest as hard as he can, he dents her chest, breaking her ribs* No I am not. It will never happen again. Because I will master this power. *The punch sends her flying through the theater walls out of the building* *He looks over at Tank to see him in terrible condition* Tank… *he walks over to Tank and looks down* Shit… I hope I wasn't too late… *Rebecca runs over, Aiden looks at her* We need to head back now. My friend Monika can help him.

Rebecca: *she looks at Aiden with a weird face before nodding and helping Tank up, they hear sirens in the distance, Rebecca quickly helps Tank up and walks him towards the back doors of the theater, Aiden walks over to his arm and picks it up, Rebecca turns and looks over at Aiden* Does your friend need your limbs to reattach them?

Aiden: No. This sweater just means a lot to me. *He looks older at the hole he made with the samurai girl, she's not there, Aiden turns, speed walks to the hallway and looks around, he sees his classmates, Isaac and Emma stares in shock once they see him*

Isaac: *Isaac runs over* A-aiden?

Aiden: Come with me. I know where you all can go to be safe while this horror show goes on.

Emma: *Emma hesitates before speaking up* Are you okay…?

Aiden: Yes, I'm just paying back what I owed. I left you guys behind, this is what I get. I know someone that will help me but we need to leave now.

Isaac: Thank you! You say you owed us but you have saved our lives numerous times now! *His face gets filled with determination* I'm in your debt! *The crowd all agrees with "yeah"s* *Aiden smiles* *they hear car doors closing*

Rebecca: *Rebecca yells from the theater* Come on Aiden! We have to leave! *Aiden turns to the theater and tries his best to jog to her, suddenly Isaac gets on Aiden's right side, he puts the remaining of Aiden's arm on his shoulder and helps him jog, Aiden looks at Isaac confused, Isaac looks back with a smile*

Isaac: Truly, Thank you. *Isaac's friend runs over, he takes the chopped off arm from Aiden's left hand and puts Aiden's left arm on his shoulder, Aiden looks at him*

Javier: My name is Javier, I saw Isaac talk to you a lot recently. If I had to be honest, I thought you were a dweeb so I ignored you but I will admit. I was completely wrong about you, you have my absolute respect. *His face has determination as well* Isaac is right! We are in your debt! *Aiden smiles*

Aiden: Pay off some of that debt by helping my friend out. *They walk into the theater and see Rebecca struggling with Tank, some other boys in the class runs over and take Tank out of Rebecca's arms*

Rebecca: *Rebecca walks over to Aiden* You really left a mark on them huh? *She smiles* You really are something Aiden.

Aiden: *Aiden smiles* Prove your worth to people and they will give you their time and day. My goal is to save everyone I find but I must gain their trust, hopefully I gained yours. *as they leave, it goes to the samurai girl, she's struggling to walk, she's leaning to the left against the wall with her right hand on her chest*

???: *she coughs up blood* I see why they call him miracle boy… *she grunts as she tries to walk more* It won't go down the same way next time… I swear… You have stained my honor…
