Final: The last day of Training.
The eclipse ended, hot sun and bright light waking Mashyuu on his last day. He opened his blue eyes and smiled at the land he saw around him. Swiftly Mashyuu sat up, used to sleeping on dirt again. Mashyuu pulled himself up and dusted off his back that had been covered in dirt and dust, swallowing a dry lump in his throat. His mom slowly sat up after him and smiled at her boy.
"About time that you got up before me. Sleep well?" Mashyuu nodded up and down and together the two made breakfast from what his mother had left over. After the meal Mashyuu basked in the warmth of the sun.
Becky stood up and walked away from the man for a bit and came back after clearly warming up.
"So what is the last training session?" Mashyuu asked. Becky started to flash with electricity and earth started to tremble around her.
"My son, you must defeat me in battle." Becky grinned and took up her mountain stance, Mashyuu mirroring his mother and flashing with golden light as stones floated up around him as well.
A hot wind blew past the pair and both charged one another. Mashyuu took a long sweep with his left arm, an open palm cutting through the air. Becky jumped up and flipped over Mashyuu's strike. He quickly pulled back and drove his palm up catching his mother in the chest, knocking the air out of her lungs and forcing her to move back. She landed in a ball and sprang out, electricity arching off her body.
"Lightning Dragons volt tackle!" She shouted and slammed into Mashyuu's spine, knocking him forward and sending a numbing feeling through his body. Mashyuu shook off the effect and spun around while pushing his arm forward.
"Earth Gods Combo: Part One!" Three stone pillars sprang up under his mother as she started to land from her tackle, blowing her backwards and staggering the woman. Swiftly he dropped to a knee while she stumbled back.
"Earth Gods Combo: Part Two!" He pressed his palm to the ground and forced the ground under Becky to open, swallowing her to the neck and crushing down around her. Becky tried to eat the stone and started to gag, Mashyuu's birth sign stopping her from eating earth infused with his magical power.
Becky grinned and called out:
"Lightning Dragons Lightning leap!" and changed into a bolt of electricity and jumped out of the crushing prison. She reformed behind Mashyuu and pulled her arm back while golden bolts started to run through her arm. She pushed it out and shouted.
"Secret Art: Lightning Dragons Lance!" The blast started to rocket towards Mashyuu and he countered with a spell of his own.
"Earth Gods Sand Leap!" He exploded in sand and moved around the blast of electricity, dodging the strike and moving to reform before his mother.
"Dragon Fist!" His arm came up and drove his fist into his moms jaw as hard as he could, sending her flying back through the air, shocked Mashyuu could dodge the way he just did so swiftly. Before she even hit the ground Mashyuu's hand pulled back as light condensed in his palm.
"Light Dragon's Holy Shower!" He took aim and threw a spray of hard light into his mother, knocking her for a loop as it smashed into her back and the back of her head. She planted her hand on the ground, catching herself and pushed as hard as she could. She rocketed as hard as she could and drove her boots into Mashyuu's chest and knocked him backwards. Mashyuu rolled and barely managed to spring up in time to see his mom using the same dragon fist right back into his jaw. Mashyuu spun through the air and crashed hard on the ground. Not since his battle with Masters had he been punched that hard and he was not looking forward to doing that again.
He filled his lungs with air and rolled aside just in time to avoid Becky driving her knees down where Mashyuu was laying.
"Earth Gods Explosive Field!" He called out and made the ground under Becky light up and explode under her, sending Becky reeling from the sudden counter attack. Becky rolled aside and brought her palms together and pulled them apart, letting sparks fly between her palms. She pushed them out and shouted.
"Lightning Dragons Lightning Bolt!" The orb rocketed at Mashyuu but before it hit, he inhaled and swallowed the bolt. Suddenly his body light up with a brownish red light and rays of bright golden light shot off of him randomly. His body entered a hybrid force as he explained himself.
"Lightning, while paralyzing is still light. I'm a light Dragon Slayer and you are going down." He cracked all his bones and darted forward, kicking up dust around him.
"Earth Gods Extension...." His body called up massive boulders from the ground to float behind his arms and act as extra power. His mother moved to block, seeing the attack coming.
"Catapult!" He shouted while sliding to a stop and thrusting his arms out. At the same time the boulders flung out and smashed into his mother, forcing her back five feet from the blast.
Becky spit blood out from her mouth, stunned from the blast. The man jumped up and balled up his fists. As he landed on the ground and slammed his fists down.
"Earth Gods Volcanic Eruption!" Magma shot out of the ground in a long wave and sprayed all over Becky, burning her body and making her eyes roll into the back of her head. She fell to her knees and held up her hands.
"No more, the battle is over. You have passed the test." Mashyuu let the slayer hybrid form pass and helped his mother stand. She hugged him tight while crying and whispered into his ear.
"...I'm so very proud of you. I love you my child and will always watch over you. Go to the house and find the chain I left for you..." She kissed his cheek and Mashyuu knew this was the last time he would see his mother. Tears flowed from his face as he transformed into golden light and soared up into the sky. At last he reformed at the base of the sky tower and started to cry. Indeed he was stronger but his heart ached for the love of his mother...
