Dark Water

When Miss Inari called to have all family members sent to the lowest level of the guild, Scorpius immediately ran to help get the families to safety. He decides to create a water slide that covered all of the stairs to help them slide down faster then they would walk.

All of a sudden "It's been a while hasn't it Scorpius?" from the second he heard that, Scorpius' stiffened. The voice he heard seemed to come from the past. That couldn't be... It sounds like my dad. He thought as he turned around. Who stood before him was someone who had a crazed look about him. ''Well that ain't my dad. Who is this?''

"Don't recognize me? Well I'm not shocked. My brother never cared for the rest of us much." the mystery man said. "I don't blame him though. After we used him for target practice so much as a kid hahaha!!"

"Who the hell are you old man?" Scorpius demanded starting to get angry. "Oh now don't be rude to family child. This is after all a family celebration is it not?" The dark mage said with a malicious grin. "Now I think you should sit down and let us do what we came to do, nephew." And with this the old man jumped towards Scorpius with a fist covered in some sort of magic that burned the air around it from it's heat. Scorpius managed to dodge it and step away and blast him with his water cannon, knocking him into the side of the bar.

"Well that is interesting. I always had a feeling you would be a water mage boy." The mage said now leaning against the bar and grabbing a glass from the bar and drinking from it. "ugh it's warm." He then throws the glass against the wall.

"Again who are you old man? How come you say I'm family?" Scorpius asked. "Well you deserve that much information after that gut shot from earlier haha." The dark mage stopped laughing and actually looked serious for a minute. "My name is Uriel Dakukawa. I am your uncle. And from what I saw at the Games, you suffer the same curse as I do boy." Uriel said.

"What is this about a curse? I didn't know I had an uncle." Scorpius said confused and but ready for him to make a move. ""Tick Tock" my boy. Does that ring a bell?" Uriel asked with a glint of a joy in his eyes. Scorpius looked shaken from his words. "Ah so you DO understand what I mean now. Good this should be a good fight."

Scorpius took a step back. "I don't understand. A curse?" Uriel then sighed, "I didn't intend to give a history lesson today, I just wanted to fight to see how strong you've become. Can't be helped your good for nothing father didn't teach you anything."

"Tell me what you know old man. I will make you tell me if I have to" Scorpius stated menacingly now with a storm behind his eyes.

"That's it! That's what I was waiting for. Keep that intensity boy, you will need every ounce of juice against me. Hahaha!" Uriel said as he jumped away from Scorpius, firing a blast of his magic towards him. "By the way boy, try not to get burned too much by my plasma. I tend to go overboard hehehe!" Uriel said maniacally. The plasma grazed Scorpius' birthmark. "Damn it I just now stopped smelling burned hair from the first fight in the Games. You are asking for it Uriel."

"Yay! You said my name" Uriel stands still to wipe a fake tear away. "Now I think I want to kill you. Tick Tock goes your clock Scorpius. It's time for you to face me."

"No way I am losing to you. I am going to defend my guild even if I have to kill you in the process Uriel." Scorpius declared with anger in his voice as he created two water whips and tried to attack Uriel with them. Uriel did the same thing with his plasma and cancelled out Scorpius' attack. "Nah ah ah boy, you will have to do better than that. I know how you think. I have been watching you after all. Try fighting me with your full power. You know you love the feeling of bringing someone close to death. you've done it before hahaha!" Uriel says as he fires plasma charges towards Scorpius again, as if he is egging him on.

"No, not again. I won't go full out. I don't want to hurt my friends." Scorpius said lowering his guard for just a moment. With this Uriel sprinted towards Scorpius and tackled him through the opening of the guild. As he jumped away from Scorpius who was still getting up, he says "Now that we are outside you really can hit me. I know you want to boy. You are pissed. I know just how to push you over the edge now."

"Oh yeah? How do you think you can do that?" Scorpius said through gritted teeth. "Well first I will start with your Guild here. We will make sure everyone inside is deader than dead. Then I will personally see to it that your little girlfriend, oh what was her name?" Uriel trails off. Scorpius, with fear now in his eyes, said under his breath "Mirr-" "MIRRANA GOLD! That's right! She is cute too. Maybe I'll have her escort me around for a bit before I kill her."

"You... You BASTARD! DON'T YOU DARE LAY A HAND ON HER!!" Scorpius said, now with energy rushing off of him, and a storm now raging up above them. Scorpius looks at Uriel in a stare that could kill. "ooooh that touched a nerve didn't it. Hmmmm still not enough to push you over the edge is it? Well then I guess I will just have to visit my dear younger brother and his family and..."

SNAP!

Uriel was cut off with a rage fueled kick to the side of his face that sent him flying. Uriel landed gracefully, now with energy running through him as well. "YES! This is what I've been waiting for. Have at thee young Dakukawa." Uriel taunted at Scorpius.

"I am not anything like you Uriel. But I will kill you. I promise to tear you to shreds. You threaten my guild, my love, and my family. Now your time is up old man. Tick Tock Uriel, your time is up" Scorpius says looking down. He looks up with a look in his eyes and a grin on his face that would make the hardest criminal pee their pants. Scorpius raised his hands which caused water to form a swirling 50 feet of wall that surrounded both of them.
