"I wish that umbreon would show up so I can pound him with my new sword! Then I can kill that hag and go on with my immortal life!" Crispin growled with sarcasm.

"Take it easy Crispin, at least we have a chance against these creatures that are searching for the Dark Ki Blade," Rynn added.

"And what about you, you can’t depend on your fire attacks all the time, you need a weapon!" Crispin said to her.

"I’m fine," Rynn growled back. Gizmo sweat-dropped as they roared at each other once again.

"You’re making the Dark Ki Blade Seekers have an easier time finding us," Gizmo said.

"So, let them come!" Crispin growled, "I can take them all down!" Rynn rolled her eyes.

"First of all, you don’t even know about that sword. Or if it has evil energy and so on," Rynn explained, "I may not have a weapon, but at least I know my powers are evil-free!"

"She does have a point you know," Gizmo agreed.

"Keep your clickers shut!" Crispin yelled at the spider.

"Stop! Do you smell that?" Rynn asked, Crispin looked around.

"Sure do, it smells like a cloak with a disgusting personality beneath it…" Crispin answered.

"Look! Ahead!" Gizmo cried. They looked up the trail. A shaggy umbreon and a tall, cloaked figure were standing ahead of them.

"Have what fun you want with them," the umbreon growled as he ran away.

"Hey! Come back here!" Crispin growled. "Come back Woraug!" Rynn and Gizmo stared at Crispin.

"How do you know its name?" Rynn asked.

"I kinda just remembered that the umbreon captured me and his name was Woraug and he was the Witch’s companion," Crispin explained. The cloaked figure twitched.

"My name is Shai, I am a member of an organization organized by the Witch. It is called the Dark Seekers and we are seeking that sword of yours…" it hissed, it removed it’s hood. The creature had dark skin but black slit eyes and a red, fork tongue, a purple tail showed itself from the foot of his cloak.

"An arbok morph!" Rynn gasped as his hands glowed purple.

"Give me the sword or you will suffer!" Shai demanded.

"No way!" Crispin growled.

"Fine then! Poison Sting!" Shai hissed as white needles flew out of his mouth and at the three. They jumped out of the attack’s path.

"I summon the power of the Dark Ki Blade!" Crispin cried as he untied the hilt and summoned the black aura, then it disappeared and revealed a sword with the moon cycle engraved on it. "Shear Black Slash!" He jumped and swung his blade down Shai’s body, he was cut into two. The fight was over as Crispin landed. Blood was around the battlefield.

"Shear Black Slash?" Gizmo asked.

"I have to name my attacks don’t I?" Crispin asked with a smile as he summoned back his power and tied it to his waist again.

"Well, at least your being creative," Rynn laughed, but something wrapped around her arms and legs and neck.

"Rynn!" Gizmo shouted as she was sucked into the woods. Crispin and Gizmo ran in after her.

"Come any nearer morph! I will slit her throat!" a female hissing cried. Crispin and Gizmo saw Rynn tied to a wide tree, her legs and arms pinned. Her neck was threatened by a sharp arrowhead that was floating next to it.

"Who are you!" Crispin growled.

"My name is Ruzu, the twin sister of Shai!" the female hissed again. Another arbok morph appeared in front of Rynn, she looked almost like Shai, but had longer purple hair.

"Release Rynn now or I’ll cut you into two like Shai!" Crispin growled.

"Not unless you want me to kill her," Ruzu laughed. Crispin growled the vines around her neck tightened, making it almost impossible to breathe in deeper breaths.

"Rynn!" Crispin shouted. She began to sweat and twitch. Her right hand was free, but unable to do anything.

"Leave Rynn alone and we can fight!" Crispin shouted at the arbok.

"Unessacery, but it’s much more fun watching you suffer!" Ruzu laughed again. "You either hand over the Dark Ki Blade to save her or don’t and she’ll die!" Crispin growled.

"What would it matter, she’s worthless on your journey anyway," Ruzu continued. Rynn desperately wanted to growl and shoot fire, but her face was pointed halfway towards the trees and she didn’t know what good that would do.

"No she’s not!" Gizmo clicked. Rynn moved her hand arm, trying to grasp something, but there was nothing to grab.

"Of course she is, she’s always insulting you Crispin," Ruzu added. Crispin’s fists were clinched.

"Shut up! They really don’t bug me anyway!" he yelled at her. Rynn felt a surge of warm energy go through her body. Mostly in her right hand.

"And if you really haven’t noticed, she only hangs out she knows your pathetic and weak," Ruzu mentioned.

"That’s not true!" Gizmo clicked more madly.

"Of course it is, that’s what vulpixes do! They trick their enemy! They can never be friends with anyone with such dirtiness!" Ruzu cackled. Rynn’s hand glowed bright orange, red, and yellow. Something soared out of her hand and cut the vines around her, she fell to the ground, but quickly stood up and glared at Ruzu. Her whole right arm was engulfed with fire; a fire sword was out in front of her, connected to her fiery hand.

"You’re despicable," she whispered before engulfing her in flames as she hit Ruzu with her sword.

Ruzu was a pile of ashes within seconds. Rynn was joined with Gizmo and Crispin as she withdrew her sword. Not a burn mark seen.

"Do you guys believe her?" she asked.

"Of course not," Gizmo answered, "What kind of friends would ever think that?" Rynn looked at Crispin, his eyes were closed with annoyance.

"Do you believe her Eonboy?" Rynn asked.

"No, if you really were against me you would’ve tried to steal my weapon anyway, hey! Wait a minute! My name is Crispin!" Crispin roared. Gizmo and Rynn laughed.

"Come on you two, let’s keep going. Woraug can’t be that far ahead," Gizmo said as they began walking out of the woods and back on the trail.

"Let’s hurry, with a new weapon! Our goal just became a whole lot easier!" Rynn shouted as she started running, Crispin and Gizmo following.
