Chapter 7 - Master your soul

The demons head gets compressed,a gorey crunch echoes through out the room

"I guess I'm a little late„Laura says while chanting a spell in the palm of her hands

The demons head regrows and it contorts its body to look at Laura,the sounds of bones crunching and joints shifting echoe throughout the room

"Aw did they send you to kill me?„The demon mimics Lauras face and tears its face with a eerie smile

The demon begins to rush towards Laura

"What the hell?—?!„Lauras eyes lock on to the demon and she raises her hands and enters a combat stance,clenching her fists"Bring it on flesh bag„Laura thinks to her self

It attempts to sneak behind Laura and stab her back but she grabs its arm and slams it to the ground and stomps on its head

"Pleh!„The demon coughs up black blood

"Oh is someone hurt?„Laura mocks the demon

"Shut up!„The demon tries to hit her with a right hook

She dodges its hand and elbows the demons stomach and backhands its face

"What's wrong am I too good?„Laura says

The demon attempts to block her shots

"Your bodies open„She punches it's liver with a magic enhanced punch

"Gah!„The demon pukes out blood

"I'm not done yet!„Laura shouts

She throws a fury of wing chun techniques towards the demon attacking each part of its body and using cloning spells to attack the demon from every direction

"KIYAAHH!!!„Laura hovers two fingers over the demons chest

"Guh...h-huh...?„The demon looks down and it's face contorts into one of confusion

"One inch punch„Laura whispers in the demons ear

She punches the demon over a thousand times in the span of a second and sends it flying through a wall and leaves it lower body standing

"Demon zero Laura one„she stands over the demons crumbling body as her fist smokes

Medics arrive and transports the bodies of Ryker,Kuro and Loki

Ryker wakes up in the field once more

"Look who's back„A figure in golden armor says

"Am I dead?„Ryker says as he gets up and stretches

"Nope you're still alive just knocked out„The figure says

"Oh ok,so what do here?„Ryker looks around

"You could try to master your power„The figure points it's blade at Ryker

Ryker jolts back a little"What do you mean?„

"Currently you can only use small portion of my power but if we could work together then we could help you use your abilities at will„The figure says at her pokes Rykers arm

"How can I even do that?„Ryker asks

"By learning to control your own soul„The figure points the center of Rykers chest

"Control my soul...?„Ryker looks at the figure with a confused face

"Yes controlling your soul means being able to final link with me and we can become outside of this dream scape„The figure gestures at the sky

"Well if it means being able to bring peace to my parents and my kingdom then so be it„Ryker says with his eyes filled with determination

"That's what I like to hear but be warned if you die here you die for good„The figure says with a stern face

"Oh...ok„Ryker says abit shaken by her words

The figure closes it's eyes and they transport inside a empty destroyed kingdom

"This...can't be...„Ryker memories come flooding in like a wave hitting him hard as he sees his parents running to find him

Ryker sees the one who commanded the destruction of his kingdom

"You...!!!„Ryker clenches his fists and his chest becomes heavy

"Defeat your past...Ryker...„The figure places his hand on Rykers shoulder

Ryker charges towards the general and kicks him off his horse with a devastating sneak attack

"I'm gonna kill you...with my bare hands...„Ryker steps closer

The general grunts but eventually gets up and rubs off the dust on his clothes and armor

"Just who might you be?„He points a spear Ryker his face covered by flames

"The one whose gonna kill you„Ryker jumps up in the air and kicks down at him but the general blocks with his spear

"Don't think you can take me down that easily son!„The general grabs Rykers leg throws him into some burning logs

"Shit...!„Rykers head makes impact with hard rock and his nose begins to bleed

"Bleeding so soon?How pathetic!„The generals cape flaps in the air as he walks towards Ryker

"Shut it...I'm not done yet...not even close„Ryker attempts to deliver a uppercut but is swiftly dodged

"Let me show how to throw a real punch son„the general punches Rykers body 5 times each blow harder than the last and finishes it off with a punch to his face that send him flying to a house causing it to collapse

"Ploo!„Rykers spit flies out his mouth and he feels his face only to see that he got a black eye from that attack"Shit...„

"Given up yet?Bow to me and I'll let you join me,Join me General Aleksaw„He says as he stands over Ryker

"In your dreams...„Ryker quickly jumps into the air and drop kicks General Aleksaw

"Still got some fight I see...„He smiles and charges towards Ryker attempting to grab him but Ryker jumps and flips over him

"I swear I'll kill you even if I have to kill myself in order to do it...as long as you go down with me then that's enough...!!!„Ryker wipes the blood of his mouth picks up a blade from a fallen soldier

"Then do it!„General Aleksaw picks up his staff and ignites it with his flames and jumps into the sky and sends a barrage of flaming spears to him

"Crap...!„Ryker blocks and parries the spears,using the rubble around him for cover but some still manage to cute and burn his skin

"Just fall and it will all be easy!!!„General Aleksaw engulfs himself in flames and charges towards Ryker as burning lion

Ryker jumps towards him with his rusted blade pointed at the generals head

They clash in the air but Aleksaw has the upper hand and sends them both tumbling to the ground

"AAAHH!!!„Ryker screams out in pain as his body slowly gets burnt to a crisp but he manages to put up a fight stab the general repeatedly and also landing a few punches

The flames extinguish and Ryker takes the opportunity to stab Aleksaw with the hot metal blade

"Die...scum...„Ryker shoves the burning blade into Aleksaws head

Ryker pants and stumbles his way to a pile of rubble and lays there breathing heavily his body battered and he notices how much of a bloody mess he is

"Congratulations Ryker you have passed now you shall wield my ability known as the Divine Melody„The figure says as it extends its hand

"Take me back the fuck home„Ryker says

"As you wish„Chains grab Ryker up into the sky and he awakes in a hospital bed surrounded by medical equipment

His eyes glow a golden color

"That was crazy dream...„Ryker looks at his arms as his tattoos begin to glow red

"I did it„He clenches his fists
