Flower Hunt!

Seikatsu heard a loud yelping sound from outside his little world of darkness and figured Aiyana had won. Seikatsu charged at the large wolf with his scythe ready to swing. As he approached the wolf rolled to a side and grabbed Seikatsu by the leg. It threw Seikatsu close to the wall of the black bubble, and then charge at him slamming Seikatsu with his massive head. The scythe had snapped in two, causing the bubble to explode releasing black particles to rain down on the area.
Standing next to Aiyana, Seikatsu slowly got up.
'I won't lose.' He said to him self.
Seikatsu put on a big crooked smile, and said calmly.
"Kom och hjälp mig...
jag...
behöver...
dig...
igen..."
The pieces of the shattered scythe rose from the ground and shattered, splintering into more shards of silver and black piece before making their way towards Seikatsu. A cold wind picked up and encircled the soul wizard followed by the black tendrils and wisps from the ground infusing itself with Seikatsu. The shards attached them selves to Seikatsu's body covering his spine, head, neck, arms, and hands. On his head was a helmet that had two rectangular slits at the eyes, and wrapped around his face. Where his mouth was the shadowy power of Seikatsu's Demonic Influence showed as teeth. His back was lined with metallic spines that ran all the way down, turning into a long sharp tipped tail that was fully functional. His arms were covered in a weave of metal, and his hands had claws that rivaled the sharpness of his allies. Seikatsu took a breath, and then opened his eyes. The suit began to glow with a dark black, light blue, and crimson smoke to it. Seikatsu charged at the wolf with his claws wide open ready to ribbonize the beast. The wolf moved to a side, and Seikatsu outstretched his tail and made a huge gash on the side of it.
Seikatsu landed on the ground using the claws to stop his momentum and came back at the beast. The wolf made a swipe at Seikatsu, but he ducked under it and grabbed the paw. Seikatsu uppercutted the wolf, leaving a scar running under the side of its jaw, up and over the wolf's eye.
Seikatsu was then knocked again in Aiyana's direction. He slid to a stop in a crouched position and stood tall.
"Stand With Me." Seikatsu said ominously.
A blue mist swirled around Seikatsu, and took on the form of a faceless man holding a long sword.
Seikatsu put his hands at his sides, as if reaching for the grip of two sword that were definitely not there. His wings materialized on his back, and spread out ready to launch the wizard forward.
The wolf lines itself up with Seikatsu, both looking ready for a final shot at each other, a true test of skill.

The wolf and Seikatsu flew towards each other at light speed. As the two passed by, it seemed as though nothing happened, and then a four cuts appeared on the side of the wolf that Seikatsu passed. Seikatsu hands held two light blue swords with dark blue highlights slowly moving throughout them, both covered in blood. His tail was slowly moving through the air, with a bit of flesh stuck to the tip of it. And the blue mist around Seikatsu, with the warrior inside it had disappeared, and dropped a splat of blood on the floor. The wolf topped over, and Seikatsu stood up, with a huge cut on the side of his arm that had taken the force of the beasts fangs and walked over.

Theme Song for making a Difficult Choice:

Seikatsu pulled a sword out from the sheath on the other side of his waist, while all over with a red gem faintly glowing near the hilt. He looked Aiyana in the eyes and said coldly to her, both heroes bleeding and beaten.
"Here lies an opponent who has fought valiantly." Seikatsu said complimenting the great beast.
"He niether hates you, nor wishes you harm.
An opponent you haven't fought.
An opponent who was left to die by another.
What will you do?
Walk away, and let him suffer until he is slowly granted death? Or..."
Seikatsu held out the sword.

Seikatsu looked down at the sobbing girl, and gently picked the sword from the ground. He flicked the sword, swinging the blood from it before resheathing it. He kneeled down and began rubbing her back, the cloak he let her use prevented his claws from filleting her.
"If it makes you feel better, I'm just at good at mercy killings as you are..." he said softly.
Seikatsu gently removed the cloak from Aiyana, and rubbed the metal shards off his arms, allowing them to fall on the cloak. He wrapped it, and tied the cloak, using it as a carrying bag.
"The first time I had to do one, was when I was ten."
Seikatsu sat next to Aiyana, and maintained a voice that implied Seikatsu had feelings.
"My people, the Tribe of Souls, all arrange marriages. As children we form bonds with each other, and promise our hearts to whomever we feel the strongest ties with."
Seikatsu's eyes grew slightly duller.
"But not I. When I was a child, I had no power. No other child would play with me.
My fiance, Istas, had too much power, and the others were afraid of her because she couldn't control it. Our bond forged when she was attacked by wolves.
I tried to save her.
I don't know why, I didn't even know her.
Heh, I was a lousy hero. A wolf slashed me on the chest and knocked me out.
Istas, for the first time, was able to control her power and ended up saving me...
We trained together for three years after that, and on my tenth birthday I woke up in front her.
Her house was on fire... a fire set by my hands while I was asleep.
My demon told her that if I didn't kill her, that she would kill Istas.
Istas gave me permission to kill her, she said it was merciful to die by her man's hand.
I had to do it... it was my duty."
Seikatsu stood up with a tear running down his face.
"When morning broke, I awoke in the middle of the village to find I was the new chief.
I was the only one alive...
Or so I thought."
Seikatsu walked over to the area with pillars connected by arcs, and found the flower he was looking for. He pulled a few dozen of them, and walked back to Aiyana.
"After being on my own for ten years, a mercy killing truly is merciful compared to what I've had to do before.
Recently, I single handedly poisoned, assassinated, drowned, butchered, and tricked 59 people in one day... all in order to capture their captain who was a slaver.
It was someone who was being cruel to others, yes.
But keep in mind at all times...
Life is Sacred, and no life is worthless.
While all life holds value, mortals such as ourselves are powerless to judge its value."


Seikatsu signaled for Lisa to take them back to Magnolia town where the two of them gave the flower shop owner the flowers.
"If you ever need to find me, have your little shadow friend leave a note here."
Seikatsu handed Aiyana a small piece of paper with a picture of a tree with an arrow on it.and walked away, with the bad of sword shards on his back.
