Rocky smiled, the Demon quickly got back to his feet, nursing his injuries. MajinDream stood silent as he watched the Demon get back to his feet.
âYou must be joking, train in twenty minutes? I am the Devilâs ultimate fighter. I donât need sparring lessons from a lowly Hloms.â
MajinDream just smiled, beckoning the Demon to come for more. Rocky wondered how this creature could have so much power; he mustâve been a fighter while alive. Rocky leapt toward MajinDream, his fist drawn back for a punch, MajinDream quickly rolled out of the way, and used Rockyâs own momentum against him. In a flash, MajinDream leapt to his feet and came down with his leg across Rockyâs back. The Demon fell to the floor in a heap, as MajinDream stood overhead.
âYouâre pitiful Demon; I thought you would be better than this, now if youâll excuse me, Iâm going to where I belong.â
Rocky slowly crawled to his feet, shocked and ashamed of his defeat. Then the reinforcements arrived, a horde of five hundred grunt demons came into the Hloms chamber and began chasing after MajinDream, Rocky felt new confidence growing inside him. In a flash he was back to his ****y self and began barking orders at the troops. MajinDream heard the footsteps behind and began to pick up the pace. Suddenly a thought came to his mind. MajinDream approached a Hloms cell and using the key he stole earlier, unlocked the door to the cage, in a flash fifty Hloms had rushed from the cell, eager to fight for their freedom. MajinDream rushed to another cell and much the same as before, released more allies. Rocky swore as he saw his worst nightmares coming true. The Demon had to put a stop to this before the underworld became overrun. Rocky quickly took flight and flew over the battlefield, what the Hloms lacked in firepower, they made up for in numbers and as Rocky flew over his troops he saw his troops were greatly outnumbered.
Rocky swooped into the middle of the Hloms; swinging with all the tools he had been given. Clawing and tearing through the Hloms, Rocky instantly evened out the battle, but more Hloms were being released every minute. Rocky made a long swipe with his tail, instantly creating a path. The Demon took flight and headed for the back of the battlefield where he was certain he would find MajinDream and the key to the cells. As expected MajinDream was gloating over the trouble heâd caused and was not expecting Rocky to return. MajinDream had begun plotting his ascent into heaven but still wasnât certain how to do it. Then Rocky showed up.
âYou must think youâre pretty clever, releasing all those Hloms, but what you fail to realise is that they are no match for my soldiers. Your plan was doomed to fail from the start.â
âIt hasnât been twenty minutes yet.â MajinDreamâs smirk turned into a smile when he saw Rockyâs facial expression.
âI underestimated you before, but donât expect me to do the same thing again.â
Rocky took up a fighting stance, as did MajinDream. The two fighters eyes each other, the sounds of battle raging far in the background, Rocky knew he had to finish MajinDream soon as he was certain the low level grunts would have trouble disposing of the enormous number of Hloms that MajinDream had set free, then there was the cleanup, this number of Hloms would be difficult to cage, they would more than likely have to be put to rest for good. It was then that Rocky noticed the key hanging from MajinDreamâs neck. Rocky smiled as he realised how MajinDream had escaped and set the Hloms free. Rocky knew that as long as the key was around MajinDreamâs neck, he would be in trouble. Rockyâs thoughts were interrupted as MajinDream came charging at him. Rocky shielded himself with one of his huge wings, and causing MajinDream discomfort as he punched the hard metal. Rocky took advantage of the momentary distraction, as he launched his knee into MajinDreamâs stomach and slammed his fists into his back; MajinDream fell to the floor in a clump. The Hloms clearly uncertain of what Rocky was capable of.
The sounds of battle grew louder but it wasnât until Rocky turned around that he realised the Hloms were heading for him. Scores of grunts lay beaten and unconscious on the floor and the remaining had fled. Rocky turned to be completely surrounded by the angry spirits. The Demon suddenly became conscious of his surroundings. It was then that Rocky noticed that MajinDream was gone, lost in the sea of souls. However Rocky had more important things to worry about. Rocky spun around in circles, unsure of which side the creatures would attack from. It was pointless, the souls came from all sides as they closed in on the Demon, and many had picked up weapons from the grunts and were using them. Rocky found himself overrun by the little creatures. Meanwhile MajinDream had reached the end of the dungeon; however it was the wrong end. The exit was in the opposite direction, MajinDream swore as he realised heâd have to fight his way through all the Hloms and Rocky, just to get out. MajinDream made his way back to the brawl.
Rocky threw his arms into the air, almost at once, ten Hloms went flying off, with a long tail whip, even more went flying away, slowly but surely, Rocky was fending off the attack. However something caught his attention. It was MajinDream; the fool had taken the wrong path and ran all the way at to the dead end. Rocky smiled at his fortune as he slammed his fist through another Hloms. Rocky would not let him escape again. In an eruption of anger the Demon threw off the remaining Hloms and stood face to face with MajinDream. The Hloms gasped as he realised his cover had been blown. Rocky slowly walked toward MajinDream. He had begun bleeding in several places from stab wounds by the Hloms, but it was all in the past. His prey had come back to him, and he would not let it get away.
MajinDream braced himself as Rocky leapt toward him, the sound of metal snapping rang through MajinDreamâs ears as he fell to the floor from Rocky's punch, but to his surprise it didn't hurt that much, it was then that he felt for the key around his neck. It was gone. He turned to face Rocky, who was smiling as he pocketed the key.
âThereâs no escape for you now.â
