VS.
The sky grows angry Joshua. The sky splits itself with lightning. I've never seen quite a storm like it in all my years, Lyon Joshua Guardian angel said to Joshua as they walked the fields they call home. Joshua then looked back to his mentor and asked him. Do you think it means something? I figured if it was just a storm you wouldn't be concerned with it. Lyon shook his head Joshua this storm could alone inflict great damage but it just came our of nowhere its not possible with this planet to just happen like this. You should be on your guard Joshua. Joshua was not entirely sure what was going on but he followed suit anyway and began to prepare himself to combat the storm so that it wouldn't hurt anyone. I'm going to have to take the storm into myself to protect my people Lyon right? Lyon replied hesistantly, it appears that would be the most plausible action to take. Joshua then removed his shirt and began to use his unique abilities to soak in elements from anything and started tapping into the storm's elements attempting to release them safely. This appeared to be going well for a short amount of time before Joshua fell to his knees. He groaned in strain Lyon placed a hand on his shoulder and assured him. Concentrate Joshua I will help you contain it over and over the storm began to strike him with lightning bolts into the chest. Joshua began to drop tears from the extreme energy beginning to overwhelm his body and in a heavy voice he said. This storm is extremely strong, its like nothing I've ever seen before! In a snap from feeling the power of the storm in Joshua's body he shouted, JOSHUA LET GO OF THE STORM! Joshua shook his head and replied I've almost got it Lyon I can't give up. Knowing that it was near the point of no return he assured him again NO JOSHUA YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND ITS NOT A STORM! HURRY BEFORE ITS TOO LATE! Seconds later another two bolts struck him in the chest forcing him to stand on his two feet. What is this? he asked his mentor and guardian angel. Its a spell someone's casted to you in order to split your soul and release LEO and the V01D. Why someone wants them free is out of my knowledge but its too late now. You have to face them and bring them back into your being or this universe will not survive their brutal onslaught! Joshua fell to his knees feeling the sheer power of the spell pulling from inside of him and in a flash of lights through pain and strein on his being with his body trying to contain it V01D and LEO were projected from his body. Before Lyon and Joshua stood V01D and LEO released from the confines of their universes they quickly turned their attention to Lyon and LEO grinned. Your attempts to imprison us were for nothing old angel! V01D then looked towards LEO and tried to take a cheap shot at him that LEO was all too prepared for and short teleported out of the way. Yes V01D I know you're there and I know we still have a battle to finish. DON'T FORGET ME! Joshua yelled standing up readying himself for battle. V01D and LEO both glared at him as if looking at a child pretending to know how to drive. Ah yes of course it wants to trap us inside of him once more. V01D answered him back in a slithery tone. But LEO knows it wont be so easy this time now that we're fully aware and prepared for you. LEO added in a growling voice to V01D's comment.
Joshua you're not going to be able to hold back on this battle. I will join you to help you focus. Quickly after Lyon said that he stuck his chest to Joshua's back and soaked into his body giving Joshua's body more strength to absorb more elements without destroying his body. Joshua pointed to the two of his adversaries and answered them. Don't forget who's realm you're in now. Both of you are completely destructible in this world. I'm going to give you both one chance for peace and if you cannot do it then I will defeat both of you! LEO shook his head, there is no way to bring peace between I the being of light and passion and IT the being of blackness and need. V01D yelled out in frustration and envy V01D was never those things it was a name they gave to it long ago because they were afraid of V01D. They choose LEO over it because of who LEO is. I will once and for all show them that V01D is just as good as LEO is.
I am afraid then I cannot let you two battle because you will both destroy the world in your rivalry, if you two wish to settle your scores you're going to have to go through me! Joshua quickly goes into an offensive stance concentrating some of the energy from the spell he took in for his first attack. LEO crosses his arms and looks at V01D well then I guess this is a three way then. Don't worry V01D it'll just be you and me soon. He then approaches Joshua seemingly not even threatened by his attack set up and Joshua releases a lightning bolt striking LEO in the chest. LEO looks to the impact seeing a light red mark on his chest. Your moves might be legendary for people here Joshua but you will need more to take us on. YOU DON'T HAVE IT IN YOU! Maybe another 500 of those would kill me but you can't even launch another 15 of them without destroying the confines of your body. With the elder angel inside of you or not, you're still using a body which will only hold you back.
Joshua sends a parade of physical punches and kicks towards LEO as V01D stands there and watches patiently waiting for his turn at LEO. LEO not even seeming to try with Joshua's attempts to damage him merely blocking physical attacks and absorbing magical effects taking barely any notable damage. Oh look at that Joshua! I think you actually made bit of fur fall off my arm with that last blow! LEO mocks Joshua. Joshua you are a good person. I do not wish to hurt you. You're not my problem you could help me and you might not be enough alone but together we could defeat V01D and live in peace. Joshua looks at V01D and begins to express thought and starts to take in energy from the world until his body is completely saturated and then releases it all into LEO's stomach. Thanks but no thanks LEO but I don't beleive either of you are better than the other. To me you're both the same and you're fighting over something stupid and until you two can get over your issues you're never going to settle anything! V01D puffs a little air hearing what Joshua tells LEO losing his patients with LEO's playing around. LEO having taking a stronger blow to the stomach with that last one standing up scratching his belly and says. Ok Joshua that one's going to hurt in the morning but you still didn't have enough even by releasing everything you've got. Now you have to take it all in over again and you and I both know that takes more time than you have. V01D then lounges out and begins attacking LEO with multiple tentacles arms and legs alike each one sparking of its own green element on his arms while LEOs releasing his white. Joshua crouched on his knee grasping the grass below him buying his time to soak in more elements.
That is right Joshua Lyon assures him in his mind, quietly take in enough to defeat them while they face each other, such is how it was done the first time, back when your father and I trapped them the first time into your body. Eventually his body becoming saturated again but he continues to take in the elements. Lyon confusingly asks, Joshua what are you doing? Your body cannot handle that kind of energy you could destroy it.Joshua answering him says, Lyon I know that but my last attack didn't do near enough even if I did manage to defeat one of them the other would remain. I need more or I will fail. Lyon trying to protect Joshua pleas to him. Its not possible Joshua your body wont contain that much power! V01D and LEO battling one another too distracted with the extreme blows of the other to notice Joshua feeding off of the world's energy. Once Joshua has about double what he normally would take in he launches the most powerful attack he's ever done severly burning his muscles and hits both V01D and LEO in one move which sends a wave of elements out from its explosion causing plants to grow everywhere to extremely large sizes V01D and LEO most certainly feel that one and even bleed some turning their attention to Joshua in slight surprise only to see him fall face down his body burned on the inside from the overwhelming amount of energy inside of him. in the pause they had looking to Joshua LEO walks to his body and stands over him saying, the poor fool gave his life to try and stop us. Somehow he gave himself enough energy to damage us greater even than we've been able to do to eachother.We must ensure that he survives this day V01D but we cannot give him enough to battle until the fight is finished. Otherwise he could turn on us. LEO and V01D use some of their own elements which only they contain and place them into Joshua to assure that he does not die. Then they turn to another and begin to fire their projectile elements to each other in a rush of green and white lights their beams connect and the world begins to quake from the unbelievable able reaction sending waves of power from the explosions they cause. While silently in the sidelines Joshua lifts his right hand and starts taking the energy from their own attacks instead of the energy from the world eventually coming back to his feet but he doesn't stop there again, he passes saturation but doesn't stop at all he doesn't release the energies instead he focuses them to his spirit rather than his body. figuring maybe he could trap them through this method but however something else happens. Joshua's body collapses and out of Joshua's back his own spirit leaves his body showing its true form. Before LEO and V01D floats a third and not known entity. Concealed inside of Joshua's soul rested the reason he's been able to bar two mystical beings for so long. The Angel Dragon Anu long believed to have ascended to a higher plain was there before them.
It cannot be! LEO shouted as he turned towards the dragon! What is it we see before us LEO V01D asked. LEO answered him it is The spirit dragon ANU The guardian of this universe. I never thought I would see this again after his last battle he was said to have left us. Apparently it didn't because V01D sees it. V01D answers LEO. It appears that this truly has become a three way match its strange I never thought Joshua would become something like this. LEO V01D and ANU then attacked one another LEO and V01D still stuck with their rivalry focused primarilly to eachother but ANU was focused on both of them and eventually after several blows ANU separated them both and froze LEO in place and ran its mouth over him swallowing him like a snake, afterwords turning his attention to V01D. V01D's face went peaceful and it said. V01D just wants a purpose, a life and being, V01D wants to be called him, or her not it. V01D wants to be someone instead of something. V01D is sorry that it causes such pain but as long as LEO is around the people love him and even give him what V01D has always wanted but could never have. While yet they curse V01D they hate V01D. V01D gets onto his knees and waits for the spirit to take him back. One day V01D will have a place. Until then V01D will be waiting. ANU then scoops up V01D and swallows him up. Pointing his head towards the sky after both entities were taken in and begins firing a beam of light into the sky releasing the elements it took in to manifest itself once enough was released it flows back into Joshua's body and Joshua stands up extremely tired and finds Lyon standing before him.
What was that Joshua asked. Lyon answered him truthfully. That was you Joshua. He answered. Am I really a spirit dragon Lyon? Joshua looked to Lyon for answers. No Joshua, not just you. all three of you together made the spirit dragon. You manifested as the dragon because only you had the ability to focus on whats important, instead of blinding yourself with the rivalry of your enemies. It was placed this way long ago by Altima so that balance between the Multi-verse would be held. Joshua didn't understand he asked Lyon, why doesn't Altima just keep the balance himself? Lyon answered. Because Altima chose to live umong the mortals long ago and no one has seen him since the creation of this universe. He's out there somewhere in a body of Altima's own creation, enjoying life. He bistowed upon the three of you to protect the multi-verse from destruction. In all that time you have never failed and I do not believe you ever will.
