It felt as though he was holding down a wild bull. If this kept up, he was sure to lose his grip.
[Energy level dropped by 70 points]
[Gift: Fire whip deactivated. Energy level critical]
[Strength deactivated. Energy level critical]
Snap!
Raiken broke free, flying out of range and far into the sky, obscured by the clouds.
Looking above, he expected it to get back anytime soon. But for now he had bigger problems to attend to.
[Mission failed: Tame Raiken]
'Just great! I lost it.' He thought as he kicked on the mud in anger. How was he meant to tame something which was far from his reach? Would it even return? What would happen to him since he failed the mission?
"Come back and fight if you're monstrous enough!" He yelled into the sky. That coward just ditched their fight!
"Naz?! What was that for? We could have gotten it." He glared his way. He just needed a moment of help from him and yet he froze.
Where was all the chill he got the first instant they had met? Why would he be so shaken up he couldn't move, enough to dodge it's imminent attack?
On a second thought, he began to feel pity for him. As a stray tear trailed down his cheeks.
'What the hell is going on in this world? Was there something I had missed while I made this?' He frowned, his attention drawn to something below.
He didn't know why he hadn't seen it before, there Aimi was, protected in a water ball and Naz had focused all his energy on to protect.
'He couldn't help because he was protecting our sister?' Nix had a fresh new view of how he saw his brother.
"Naz?" He felt guilt stricken for being so insensitive as to not understanding the situation earlier.
Naz closed his eyes, the tears which had run down his cheeks evaporated like it was never there. He gritted his teeth at his inability to help everyone around him.
The dragon territory was a forbidden area, standing in it was as good as a death wish. What he couldn't understand was why his brother had run away into this place. He couldn't possibly say why he had passed out?
A bigger issue still remained, why was he acting differently? Aside from his gift, he showed so much dexterity and control of his movements, he had a moment of doubt on who his brother really was.
"Gotten it?!" Naz's eyes glowed a brighter shade of blue. He made sure to keep Aimi in it, he would not want her interfering in his next action.
"Brother Naz, please no!" Aimi hit the ball trying to get out. With his current state, she was unsure what he could do.
"Stay out of this." He snapped, "your brother here seems to have forgotten how things work around here."
'I made this world you dumb*ss, even though being in it is different from drawing the detailed world. I still know how it works to a greater degree once I recognize who are in it.' He narrowed his eyes but said nothing.
Ever since he had known a bit of his capabilities, he was dying for the moment to test it out with his brother in a sparring session.
Now he didn't seem that scary anymore. Currently he was at a disadvantage, his energy level had dropped to a staggering 30 points, there was no way he could utilize his gift properly, nor could he use his strength.
He cursed at how unlucky he had been getting ever since he got to this world. Now he couldn't even defend himself against his brother.
Yet again, he deserved every anger he was going to receive in the form of a beating. He still didn't get why they were in the dragon territory but all he could deduce was that he must have been the source of their arrival.
"Brother!!!" Aimi cried, her tears floating and merging with the water ball she was in. She never enjoyed watching them fight, it never ended well for brother Nix.
Ignoring her pleas, Naz formed an ice layer on his knuckles, he was determined to carry out his anger on him–for making them search for him, for scaring Aimi into thinking he had died, for putting her in danger.
"How could you?!" He raged, punching Nix on the face.
Nix had not expected that contact to have great impact on him as he flew a great distance before making a thud on a boulder, several miles away.
[Health level dropped by 10 points]
'What the hell?!' He hissed to the pain, it felt like all the bones in his body had been fractured. A sharp pain shot up from his leg as he tried getting up.
His body began to tremble, the fear he had for his brother was returning tenfold. Raiken only had an effect on his health status by 2 points but his brother had managed to decrease the same health stats by 10 points?
He couldn't understand the sick logic to that, could it be because it's a twin thing? We share the same soul connection, so it would be easier to cause more damage to our health?
Shaking his head, he had to look for a way to get up. He had to. This might not be his body, but the pain was sure as hell real.
His eyes widened as he watched Naz glide on mud at high speed towards him. Aimi is still in the bubble in tow.
'F*ck my life.' He deadpanned, expecting anything soon, it's not like he could move to dodge the attack anyways.
Grabbing a hold of his neck and raising him above his ground, Nix struggled to get free.
"L... let... go... of... me!" He yelled, his breath was getting choked up. Was he really going to die in the hands of someone who looked like him?
'No! This was seriously messed up.' If he ever got back, he was sure to cherish the simple boring life he got. More importantly that iPad was to be incinerated, selling it for a few bucks wouldn't do.
"Brother!! Please forgive him. Take it out on me, I'm the one who willingly rushed into danger."
Naz's hand trembled as he stared at the helpless state of his brother, his heart began to hurt for him. He had gone a little bit too far with his anger.
'You should just count yourself lucky my energy was drained. This wasn't meant to be my end!'
Nix's vision was starting to blur, the corner of his eyes were darkening and clouding in on his vision gradually.
He could faintly hear the cries of Aimi, everything played in slow motion like in the movies. He had expected a sad background music play to set the mood but that didn't come.
In its stead, came darkness.
