13 Wind And Water (2/2)

Without warning, a tear was suddenly ripped through the shadow right above Oki's head. Floating above it was a black shadow, staring down at him. However, instead of having lava red eyes, like the enemy he was fighting (or trying to fight), its eyes were an icy blue.

Oki smiled. Thanks Surina.

Before the shadow could close up the gap, Oki created a jet of water and propelled himself out of the darkness.

Landing back on the ground, he aimed the jet towards the shadow and increased its power.

The shadow was pushed back until it was against the wall. Oki then sent a rain of water droplets above it, completely finis.h.i.+ng it off.

”Phew. I didn't think I was gonna make it.” Oki said, trying to catch his breath. ”Surina saved my a.s.s without even being here!”

Just then, a golden glint caught his eye.

”Is that a... Piece of a key?” Oki asked, as he approached it.

Sure enough, it was the bottom piece of a large golden piece.

”So Surina was right, the final boss does drop a piece of the key. Interesting.” Oki began speaking into his earpiece, ”Hey guys!”

”Ye?” Surina's voice echoed through the communication device.

”You were right, the final boss does drop a piece of the key!” Oki replied, excitedly.

”You defeated your third boss?!” Chloe asked.

”Yep, but Surina, it was all thanks to your shadow. If it hadn't of saved me from the shadow-void-thing, it would of been suffocated!” Oki replied.

”I'm glad we could help!” Surina said, ”I've just defeated my 2nd boss, Chloe how are you doing?”

”I'm looking for my third boss as we speak.” Chloe answered, ”Wait a second, I've found it! Well, guess we'll talk later!”

”Oki, has any sort of pa.s.sageway opened up in your last boss room?” Surina asked inquisitively.

Oki scanned his room. His eyes stopped on a small corridor, located where the shadow was destroyed.

”That wasn't there before!” Oki shouted, ”Surina, something has opened up!”

”Ok. Hopefully that means one will open up for all of us. If my predictions are correct, we should all be able to meet up after venturing through these corridors, as they should all link up.” Surina replied, while trying to imagine where these pa.s.sageways could lead.

”Ok, well guys I'll see you there!”

With that Oki began venturing down the corridor, as Chloe fought her final boss and I, Surina, kept searching for mine. The horrors that could lie in that room, are still playing on my mind...
