Mystic's Lightning Form39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbsIbEOryA
Ryker scoffed. “Just how many forms do you have?”
“Supposedly once I master them all I'll have 9 forms. So far I've just about mastered 6 of them. The basics of course and this combo. It's pretty electrifying, don’t you think?” she said with a wink.
“Oh the bitch thinks she is funny now?”
“Honestly I've always been funny. You're just always trying to kill me every time we meet so I never get the chance.”
Ryker face went dark, “I would have killed you last time if it wasn't for that fucking bird.”
“That bird has a name and he's the number 2 hero in Japan. Of course he'd save me in time. He is too fast for his own good.” Rena smirked.
“Ugh ENOUGH!” Ryker screamed as he changed into a dragon flying up into the air.
“A dragon again? Come on, show me something better.” Mystic taunted as she charged up an attack with her staff. It spun in front of her, building up the electricity in the air. Once it was a decent size she released it toward the dragon as he let out a roar of fire. The magic collided in mid air causing an explosion.
Ryker got frustrated and turned into his serpent form. He slithered towards Mystic, lunging his fangs towards her. She jumped back with lightning speed as she tossed her shield sphere around her. Landing a few feet away she sent out a ball of energy to try and slow Ryker down. He quickly transformed again into a cheetah thinking the speed would be to his advantage. He dashed towards Mystic, this time catching her leg in his teeth and biting down.
Mystic let out a scream as she shot several lightning bolts to knock him off her leg. Ryker grinned at his success and leg go. Mystic stepped back as her leg started to drip blood.
Ryker changed back into his human form and licked the blood dripping from his lips. “Mm tasty.”
“That's gross.” Mystic hissed.
Ryker just grinned as he raised his hand, creating that same vortex as before. This time he surrounded himself with it as he began to monologue.
“You know Mystic, since you keep following me between worlds I gotta ask. Do you have a thing for me?” He grinned.
“Ew no. I'm simply just trying to stop you and Odysseus from erasing existence. What you're doing won't work. You're going to destroy everything.” She answered with a scowl.
“Ha, that's where you are wrong. Master wants to create a world where only those who are strong survive, those he sees fit to live in his new world. I'm the lucky one who gets to sit at his side.” Ryker started to laugh.
“What happened to you? Why would you follow him? He's going to destroy everything. “ Mystic questions.
“We don't have time to talk about that. I'm just going to kill you so the master will be happy again. You've really pissed him off.” Ryker growled as he moved forward.
The vortex propelled him quickly. Mystic didn't have time to react. He suddenly appeared in front of her and placed his hand on her head. Mystic tried to move but she wasn't fast enough.
“But before I kill you, I want to see your past.” He sneered
The world turned black. Mystic was frozen in place. She could feel him inside her mind. It hurt like hell. She tried to scream but nothing came out. But just as quick as he grabbed her head he let go. He stepped back with a shocked look on his face.
“Why…why can't I see anything? It's just blank. Just a black abyss. Who are you?!” Ryker began to panic.
He used that move on Hawks and it worked with no issues. He saw all of Hawks past in an instant. Why was Mystics just blank?
Mystic was just as confused, not understanding what happened or what he tried to do.“What did you just do?! “ She growled.
Ryker looked at her and his face turned into a frown.
“I have the ability to see into your past. Your memories, feelings, everything. But yours.. It was just black. It worked on that birdbrain. I saw his entire past so why didn't it work on you? WHY WAS YOURS BLANK?!”
A pink cat made of thread suddenly appeared on Mystics' shoulder. Mystic turned her head to look at it then as did Ryker.
“What the fuck is that?” He asked.
“That would be my threads of fate magic. It protects everyone in the squad. That includes Mystic.” Vanessa said from the sidelines.
“Sorry Mystic, I know you said not to interfere but you look like you needed a little help.” she said with a smile.
“Thanks Vanessa.” Mystic replied. She turned her head back towards Ryker who was still in a daze. She tossed her staff sending a beam of electricity that surrounded Ryker, locking him in place.
“Shit,” he mumbled, realizing he was caught.
Mystic slowly made her way up to him. She got right next to him and gave him a glare. “Looks like you lost again, Ryker. “
He just scoffed and rolled his eyes. “Kill me then. Do me the favor and just end me.”
Mystic’s face turned into confusion. “Why would I kill you?”
“You're here to stop me right? Then kill me.”
“Whoa, that's not… I don't kill people. Why would you think I was going to kill you?” she was stunned.
“You don't kill people? Wow look at you all high and mighty with a sense of morals. It's pathetic.” he spat.
“Well sorry to disappoint you but that's just not me. I don't kill people. I came here to stop you, not to kill you.” Her face softened a bit.
“Then you're weak. You don't have what it takes to finish the job.” he growled. Suddenly he activated his vortex again and pushed it against her force field, breaking it. He then lunged at her, landing on top of her.
Straddling her chest he grinned letting out a menacing cackle. He pulled a knife from his boot and raised it about her chest.
“Let's try this again shall we? Let me show you how it's done!” he said as he started to bring it down.
Mystic just looked at him and sighed. As the knife got closer she flicked her wrist sending a ball of energy right about his head. It slowed all movements within its range. The knife slowed down confusing Ryker. Mystic grinned and bucked her hips causing him to tumble over her head and land on the ground. Then the ball popped, sending a bolt of electricity through the knife and into his body. He hit the ground and was momentarily paralyzed.
Mystic stood up and dusted herself off. She walked over, standing over him, she smiled. “It’s over.”
“So what now? Since you refuse to kill me, what are you going to do with me?” He growled.
“I'm taking you back with me. Can't have you run back to your master now can we?” She smirked.
Ryker was silent for a moment before he burst into laughter. “Fine fine, you win. I'll leave the kid be. I probably don't need his swords anyway. But one thing is for sure Mystic, you never learn. You should have killed me when you had the chance.”
“What do you mean?” she looked at him puzzled.
“Because next time we meet. I'll be sure to kill you before you can even blink.” He grinned menacingly.
“There won't be a next–” but before she could finish her sentence there was a flash of light and he was gone.
