FATHER VS SON 2

I feel a sudden rush of rage explode in me as the dust clears and Leonardo body lies on the ground, looking lifeless. I feel a sharp pain in my left eye and begin shouting in pain. The pain is so much, that I begin to cry. I look at the floor, wondering what went wrong. That is when I see the tears from my left eye is mixed with something red.

"Blood? No it can't be." I say to myself, shaking my head and staring at the ground in horror as more landed to the ground. I feel a rush of something inside me. Is t pain, anger, hatred or guilt? I don't know. But I feel all of this at once.

"I will kill you." I shout at Mr Mike.

He instantly appears in front of me and bends down to make his face the same level with mine.

"Oh?" He says with a serious expression on his face, but I am too angry to care.

I turn to Leonardo's direction and see he has woken up and is coughing out some blood. Though I am relieved, I still feel angry seeing him like that.

"I am not finished yet." He stands up and stretches himself. "I am just getting started." He grins, showing all his perfect white teeth.

A shocked expression appears on Mr Mike's face. But it instantly changes into a one of impress, then to a wide smile.

"I knew you had it in you." He sticks out his tongue and on it is a strange black pattern that looks like a sonic wave. He stands up, turns and faces Leonardo. I can tell from the expression of shock on his face, that Leonardo sees the tongue and knows what it is.

"A blessed curse tongue." He says in a shaky voice and is too scared to move.

'Huh? What's that?'

"You are right son. You remember I used to tell you about it." He pauses. "Well, I never believed in it, until I met sonic king. Such a unique beast it is." He begins to laugh a cool and calm laugh.

"What is your own ability?" Leonardo asks, his breath still shaky.

"Wanna test and find out?" Mr Mike asks and laughs.

"Well, no. It is obviously out of my league."

"Yeah. You're right." He moves one step forward. "How about....." He clicks his finger and a huge beast that looks like a cheetah appears by his side. "Sotah." He fuses with it instantly. And is covered in cheetah's fur, has small black claws and has a four feet tail.

Leonardo smiles, as if saying that's okay. A sword instantly materialises in his hand. He zooms to his dad in an instant and tries to attack him. But his dad disappears and reappears behind him, giving him a powerful punch that releases a sonic wave and sends him flying.

'What in the...'

Leonardo is still on air, when his father appears behind him and gives him another powerful punch that sends him flying in the opposite direction. He lands on the ground, creating a little explosion and releasing dust around him.

The dusts clears and shows a standing Leonardo with a wide grin on his face.

"I should have expected that." He zooms forward again and attempts to attack his father. But the man vanishes again and reappears behind Leonardo. He raises his fist to punch Leonardo. But surprisingly, Leonardo dodges the punch and turns around, giving his father a knuckle sandwich that sends him flying.

Mr Mike lands, breaking the ground and creating a little dust explosion. Leonardo zooms into the dust. A loud whipping sound occurs and Leonardo is sent flying out of the dust.

'Well, didn't see that one coming.'

"You think you can match with me, because you managed to strike sotah." He laughs. "But what if I combined two of my beasts." He walks out of the dust and his new appearance creeps me out. Although, he still looks like a cheetah. He is covered in scales that glisten under the sun and his tail is now that of an alligator, but it's bigger and longer.

"You are weak son. You are more than this. Come on, show pops what you've got." He gestures for Leonardo to come to him.

Leonardo bends his head and sighs. "I never wanted to go this far." He shouts and raises his head to look at his father.

"Oh, really?" His father asks with one brows raised.

Leonardo de-transforms and is back to his normal self. He claps his hands together and shouts, "Electro hawk." A huge, yellow five feet hawk, covered in lighting appears by his side. He stretches his hand and instantly a blade made of lightning materialises in his hands. He begins to vibrate as lightning covers him and begins striking around him.

"Looks like someone is in the mood..." Mr Mike's word is cut off with a powerful punch that releases a huge amount of sonic wave and lightning, creating a big hole underneath them and causing him to vomit some blood and flying.

Leonardo still in the place where Mr Mike once stood. Appears behind Mr Mike in an instant and gives him another powerful punch that releases more lightning and sonic waves, creates another hole beneath them, and sends Mr Mike flying with new sets of blood coming out of his mouth. I turn and look at the place where Leonardo once stood and where Mr Mike once stood. There is two big holes on the ground, with some cracks. And Leonardo isn't even fused with the hawk. It's even nowhere to be found.

Mr Mike begins to laugh. "Damn this is getting interesting." He shouts and coughs out some more blood, before appearing in front of Leonardo, attempting to punch him.

Leonardo looks up at the man and catches his punch, and for some reason, the man is shocked and scared by something. The impact of Leonardo catching his fist, creates a large lightning explosion that spreads around them, shattering the ground, shocking Mr Mike and creating a large dust explosion. Mr Mike, now black, is sent flying out of the dust and crashes to the ground hard, breaking the ground and creating another dust dome around him.

"Leonardo. Stop this madness. He is your dad." I shout and surprisingly, it came out as a shout.

He looks at me and I feel a rush of something that drowns me in all possible emotions that existed. It is as if, I feel every possible emotion, rushing through me and crushing me on the inside.

"So this is what he is capable of. He is now a God level magic for sure." A voice says beside me and I turn to see the hooded figure by my side.

"What do you mean?" I ask as Leonardo looks away from me and I feel free.

"The boy is now a God level magic and trust me, if I tell you that once he masters his new self. He will be something else. Even his father won't stand a chance or last against him. And you are greatly mistaken, if you think it is the hawk that made him stronger." The man says and sighs. "It's too early for such a powerful ability." He clicks his finger and instantly, Leonardo becomes normal, falling unconscious and dropping to the ground.

"Thank goodness, that he is still in the five percent stage. If not my powers won't have much effect on him and he would have ended up destroying this planet and cause a huge suicide and murder rampage or something worse in other planets and universes. And who knows, he might have killed his father and you. But don't fear. I would have stopped him or killed him, before that happens." He adds and sighs.

I look at him in horror. "What are you saying? What do you mean?" I ask in confusion. "And what you just said. That's some dark words bro."

He sighs and bends his head. Then, he raises it back up.

"Leonardo's father.... Truly loves his son." He nods slowly, in agreement to what he said. "The love is so much that he feared to hurt his son." He nods again. "And so he hired me to train his child. It was quite an insult to my image, but it was simple." He keeps quiet.

"Is that all?" I ask, feeling the urge to learn more.

"Well, I trained the boy a lot. I took him to a different dimension, I created. In this dimension, time is times two in how long and how fast it is here. That is, time is longer but still faster than the one in this world. One minute there, is one hundred and twenty seconds. One hour there is one hundred and twenty minutes. One day there is forty-eight hours. One week there is fourteen days. One month there depending on their days, are: fifty-six or fifty-eight days, sixty days and sixty-two days. And finally, there are twenty-four months in a year." He keeps quiet.

'This guy is definitely lying.' I feel my anger rising. "Stop lying and be serious." I shout in anger.

"Oh?" He turns and looks at me, and for some reason I get scared and shrink before him. Then, he looks back at Leonardo and smiles.

"I really love that boy cause he trained a whole week in that world. He truly outdid himself. Although, he was struggling, he never gave up." He laughs. "And of course he never knew his father was the one who sent me to train him." He looks at me, then looks back. "Wanna know a secret?" He asks and I nod in reply. "Mike over there, is capable of destroying planets and right now, he is more than able to end his son, without putting up energy. He is using only his fusion mode, because he will easily crush Leonardo, without it. It is like his own kind of barrier, for stopping himself from hurting his son. Trust me, if I say Leonardo is actually not having much of an effect on Mike."

For some reasons the words stab through my whole body like spears and crush my heart.

'What have I done? I am sorry Mrs Silvia.' I begin to sob, but stop.

"But, I must admit, the kid is a genius."

'Yeah, no kidding. Leonardo did it for one week. Which is like a month here or more than.' I sigh. 'I wonder how he was and how he survived.'

"Oh no boy. You're wrong." He laughs and stops instantly.

"Huh? How?" I begin feeling uneasy.

"You think he trained for a month? That is, when compared to this world?" He says, a hint of irritation in his voice.

"Y.. Y.. Yes. I do. Or am I wrong?" It dawn on me that he somehow knew what I was thinking. I gather up courage and ask, "How do you know my thought?" I manage to ask, feeling uncomfortable.

"Oh. That's too simple. Y'all are like open books to me. I can easily read y'all without stress." He says with pride, causing me feel irritated and pissed off.

'Huh? How powerful is this guy? Creating such a dimension and calling us open books. How tough is he?' I shake my head twice. 'Could it be.... No it can't be.' I begin to shake my head wildly. 'It can't be. It can't be. It can't be... Such beings don't exist.'

He begins to laugh and I guessed he might have read my thoughts again.

"Why the panicking? Why the fear?" He turns and looks at me. "And yes. I am that level of magic." He grins and looks back at Leonardo's body. "Now. Where were we?" He sighs. "Oh right. We were in how long he trained." He looks at me again. "Each day here is two years there." He says and smiles, enjoying the look of horror on my face.

I look down. 'Nah. That have to be a lie right? I don't believe the shit he's saying.' I look back at him and see that he's smile is gone. 'Oh shit. Dude can read my mind.' I smile an awkward smile, feeling so much sweats racing down my body, that it is hard to know which is first.

"Are you doubting me?" He asks with a raised eyebrow.

"No sir. Definitely no, sir." I laugh an awkward laugh.

"Good. You better don't." He looks back at Leonardo's body, and I wonder if the boy is okay. "Well, you see. Each day here is two years there. Meaning, he trained for fourteen years. And trust me, if I say he went through hell." He looks at me and grins, before looking back. "But, don't worry. I was not harsh on him. He trained for only forty hours every day." He laughs. "And his dad?" He looks at me, then looks back. "The dude literally trained for thirty years. Forty-two hours per day and almost died. But he survived. Even Leonardo had a better gravity setting, with his gravity only times ten of this place's own. While his dad was from times ten to times fifty." He begins to laugh. "I mean, if you have been watching closely. You'd see that Leonardo was using his gravity magic on him the whole time." His laughing increases. "What a joke. Bro thinks he stands a chance against his pops." He stops laughing, causing silence to take over.

For the first time, I look away from him and look at Leonardo in horror, but turn and look at the place where his father landed, in more horror. 'Could that be his ghost?' I sigh. 'The man said Mr Mike lived. But what of Leonardo?'

"Don't be such an idiot." The man voice says and brings my attention back to him. " I was feeding him a lot. And was giving him, magic berries that heals his body instantly. But that is after he finishes the training session."

I gulp hard and struggle not to shout, "What the hell?" Which I did.

"While I was training him. I grew some sort of affection for him. One that a master has for his student. And he also grew for me. Which, later on, we learnt about each other. Of course, him learning a little about me and I learning a lot about him. Mostly due to the part of me enjoying a free brain-novel. That was when I saw all his abilities and soon after, he surprisingly learnt and mastered them all, well." He grins as I shuddered in some sort of disgust and fear.

"So he is just that strong?"

"Yup. And trust me. He will be more. But his father might, I repeat, might be tough for him, once he masters his new skills. Or he will be. Let's watch and see." He smiles and stops, replacing it with a serious face.

"Looks like you enjoy suspense and mystery." I mumble to myself.

He looks at me and smile widely. "Of course, I do. Who doesn't love some drama and mystery and suspense and twist and so on." He looks back.

"So, what did Mr Mike pay you with? And where did Leonardo capture those his creatures from?"

"None of your business." He turns around and gives me a sickening smile. That is when I realise, he has not been covering his face since we started talking. And god, must I say he is extremely handsome? No, beautiful? No. No word could express his level of beauty. His shiny, and short light purple hair and eyes, are too much, when compared to my medium white hair and light red eyes, Leonardo's short light yellow hair and sky blue eyes and Mr Mike's long dark blue hair and dark blue eyes. And not to brag, we're the finest I know.

'No wonder he has been covering his face since.'

I try to compare him to all the other good looking people I know. But none managed to even crawl to his level, talk more of reaching him.

His smile grows. "I've got the looks right?"

"Yeah, whatever." I mumble to myself in disgust.

"Well, that's enough of the talking." He says and is about to click his finger, but stops. Still looking at me, he says, "Got any valentine for Friday of this month? You know today is Tuesday. So, any plans for Friday?" He moves his right eye brows up and down in a funny manner.

"No." I answer bluntly. "Do you?" I ask, obviously expecting him to boast about having a billion of them.

"Nope. None of them are up to my level. And besides I am not actually interested. I strongly believe, power is tastier than the opposite sex." He says and laughs.

I laugh a little. Then stop. "You're not good at all. That's cringe worthy." I say and we both laugh. I sigh a relieving sigh. "Kinda same. I guess?" I sigh again. "Actually fallen in love once. But after that I never did again. It's like the ability to, died." I begin laughing, then stop. "Even my classmates call me " the boy who never falls." And I am very proud of it."

"Well, will you mind telling us?"

"Us? There is only you and I."

"And Leonardo and his dad. Which I froze in time for now." He laughs.

"Looks like you're a God level time magic."

"You can say that I guess. Start the story. I and the audience or readers are getting impatient." He says and frowns a little.

"Well, you can just read me like a book."

"What in the..... What do you take me for a rat... "

"No it's not what I mean.... "

"Silence." He commands in a booming voice. "Well, I might have read it from somewhere. And I can't, for one: The audience will miss it and two: I don't know what kind of things, I will find in there." He shudders.

"But Leonardo.... "

"Leonardo's case is different." He says in a firm voice, reminding me to know my boundaries. He sighs calmly. "You see, I had to for a reason. I actually don't go around reading people's minds without reason. I know the importance of privacy and business minding." He sighs again. "If you don't want to talk about it. It's okay. Just say you can't and it's over."

"Ok. I will." I say and bend my head, sighing. "It all began on a good...."
