Chapter 7:
Battle of a Waning Moon
“My pact is to right whatever wrong that is going on, and find the owner of the
voice that’s in my head.’ Sheena said, “May I have your name?”
“I am Cresenta.” the man said, “Now, let us fight.”
Zelos started off with a new spell, Soul Reaver, a non-elemental
spell. Many white streaks crashed into Cresenta, and he retaliated with a Sword
Technique, Blast Rain. Periwinkle flames surrounded the Summon Spirit, then the
flames turned a reddish color. After this, he dived straight down at Sheena. On
impact, a small implosion occurred. She took major damage. Zelos tried to cast
Healing Stream, but he was interrupted by Cresenta attacking with his katana.
‘Ordinary Summon Spirits don’t attack like this’ Sheena thought, ‘He’s way too
fast…’
“Dammit Sheena!” Zelos yelled, “He could kill us! He’s not a normal Summon
Spirit!!”
Cresenta wasn’t a bad person at heart, but Summoners needed to prove
their worth. And this was how to prove it. If he let down to the wrong person,
power could be let into the wrong hands. Chaos could ensue. The moon’s power
could be drained. The wrong things are too horrid to be put into action.
By now, Cresenta--as some people would put it-- severely kicking
butt.Sheena was very beat up, and she could die. Her life, or Zelos’ wasn’t
something to risk. “ I call upon ethereal electricity, bolts, rain on my enemy!
I Summon thee, Volt!”
This was actually a very good idea. Volt’s electricity could go all over the
battlefield now, and the Summon Spirit could see this was his chance. He could
make up for the destruction of Mizuho. But this, this attack was different.
Sheena was astonished.
Four giant bolts stabbed into the ground in different places. Then, a very
titanous bolt stabbed in the center of them. Sparks danced around it and
traveled into Cresenta’s body. To finish of this move, the five bolts struck
the Summon Spirit one by one, and then disappeared.
Cresenta was down, but not out. He faked an attack at Sheena, and then mauled
Zelos with his sword. A stab, then a slice; then another slice. So many cuts, no
Band-aid could heal that. Zelos couldn’t take it anymore, and collapsed. “You’re
a goner!” Sheena screamed, “New attack! Glimmering Seal!” A cocoon of light
encased Cresenta, and then many opal knives appeared an stabbed into it. The
cocoon vanished, leaving a wounded Summon Spirit. Cresenta attacked Sheena with
his katana and Sheena drew out her own to defend. Cresenta stopped for a minute
seeing her blade.
‘A human, with the Katana of Frozen Earth!?!’ he thought, ‘The weapon that
forged the alliance between the Balacruf and Flanoira?’
Sheena took this advantage to strike , and then revived Zelos with a Purgatory
Seal. Cresenta was stunned at Zelos’ quick attack and couldn’t really move after
his stab.
“Now, Sheena!” the red haired warrior yelled.
“Torrential Stab!” Sheena yelled. A waterfall crashed onto Cresenta as Sheena
dived on him. He couldn’t stand it anymore and admitted defeat.
“Well, you have made our pact. You must get the others, as well.”
“Others?!?!” Sheena and Zelos yelled in unison.
