Teknophage: Demon's Reign Episode 18: Teknophage vs Zeerus Part 2

The serpent gasped at the vision of someone. He walked slowly toward the vision.

Phage: Tell me...wh...who or what are you?

Figure: Ssso...you lossst the one you love, Henry Phage?

Phage: (shocked) What? How did-?

Figure: I may be only a figment of your imagination, but even I can tellsss.

Phage: You sound like you're using the Phage language but how? I'm the only one!

Figure: I wasss born with it...jussst like you were.

Phage: "Were"? I still have sometimes. And you born with it? Who are you?

Finally, the figure turned, showing himself to be a green skinned with pointy nose figure pink slit-looking eyes, black hair, fork tongue, and what appeared to be a gangster outfit.

Phage: (shocked) You...you're that half Phage demon!

Figure: The name'sss Snake, gotsss it?

Phage: Snake? (frowns) That's not even an original name. I meant your real name.

Snake: (glares) Lisssten to me, Phage...all that power...all what you have...you WILL lossse it all.

Phage: No...(glares) no, I don't want that!

Snake: You NEED to learn to acccept your fate. Acccept what you can never have...

Phage: Grrrr....you're trying my patience, boy!

Snake: And lisssten what I WILL tell you...one day, if you continue on the path you are in now...you WILL die.

Phage:: (pause) So am I going to get a vision of the future, Snake?

Snake: It isssn't in a Phage'sss power. But I AM telling you thisss...choose a different path...or you will NEVER have a chanccce to be redeemed. Not unlesss you're jussst as cowardly as you alwaysss are...

He clenced his free hand before angrily slashing at it.

Phage: SHUT UUUUUUP!!

The image vanished while the Phage panted in anger, tail slammed to the ground before standing up.

Phage: Ugh, one day, I will find this 'Snake' and prove him wrong!

He looked back at Ayami's body, then sighed a bit sadly.

Phage: As for you, Ayami...(looks down) I wish there was a way to bring you back...

A voice laughed a bit cruelly in the air.

Australian Voice: Ah, so this is the elusive Teknophage...and what's this? He actually HAS sympathy. Didn't see THAT coming.

A portal began opening up as the reptile noticed, putting the body down and blocking the corpse before out came someone in a leather jacket wearing a hood while carrying a scythe on his back.

Phage: (glares) Now who in Hell's Bells are you suppose to be?

Figure: No one special...just Death himself.

He removed his hood, showing himself to be a skeleton of a sort with brown shoulder-length hair wearing sunglasses.

Phage: (shocked) Death?

Death: Oh don't look so surprised. Me friends an' mates have seen all the evil you did. So stand aside and let me through. Her soul officially belongs to the afterlife!

Before he could use his scythe at the body, the Phage snatched his arm.

Phage: (glares) Don't you DARE take her soul!

Death: Look at her! Her body's rotting and she's dead! It has to go somewhere!

Phage: (crosses his arms) Well I'm not going to let you have her so easily.

Death: Are you trying to challenge me?! What do YOU yourself have to offer for her soul?

Phage: Myself...(frowns) And trust me...what I will offer can NOT compare what others would do.

Death: (glances) Oh really? So tell me...does Ayami mean anything MORE than your own immortality?

He looked seriously, looking back at the dead girl, then sighed, looking down.

Phage: More than anything...

Death looked concerned before chuckling a bit.

Death: Well this IS a first. You, a being of immortality and who would rather rot than do anything nice, allowing yourself to give up for the soul of one small puny human!

Phage: She was NOT just any human...(sheds a tear) She was...my beloved...

He placed his scythe away, lifting his sunglasses, showing skeleton holes as he smirked.

Death: Tell ya what? Ya caught me in a good mood today. So here's the deal: let's not breathe a word of what's going on here...

He walked around the Phage before picking up the body.

Death: IF you can survive your insanity for the next few days. And if you succeed, I'll take care of finding some way to bring your beloved back.

Phage: (shocked) Insanity? What insanity?

Death laughed a bit more.

Death: Oh, don't you know? This place you're in can drive ANY one that's not use to living here to the brink of insanity.

The Phage touched Ayami's cheek before petting her hair.

Death: BUT...

Phage: Ugh, I hate it when people say that.

Death: There's one thing you must know...her body can't be physically be brought back. However, she CAN be reincarnated...be it by being split or just in a different person.

Phage: (sighs) I understand...do what you must.

Death: Oh and before I finish here, I may be generous today, but DON'T expect me to be just as much when you trade souls to save a half breed's life!

The two paused before laughing hysterically. However, Death stopped, glaring.

Death: Seriously: You're gonna die trying to save a half breed!

Phage: (glares) How dare you say that! That will NEVER happen!

The skeleton with hair laughed, kicking the Phage down.

Death: Trust me on this! I'm Death and I can forsee people's deaths...ESPECIALLY yours.

He growled, preparing to attack before the scythe blocked his path.

Death: Not so fast! I ain't done yet!

Phage: What? You want me to beat you in a contest?

Death: Forget it! Grim made that mistake and I am not going to do the same!

He growled a bit in anger.

Death: You know...for an odd reason, you remind me of a human that used to know an old yeti "friend" of mine. And yet...

As he continued, visions of shadowed figures were shown.

Death: Here you are, as if you were being used. Not like those of the Silver Millenium over a thousand years ago. Oh yes, I know about the fall of that and the fall of Technology of that time.

Phage: What? If you're talking about the Moon Kingdom and Solaris, yes, I've heard about it and how some fool got turned into a cat.

When the vision ended, Death looked angered.

Death: I know that! But tell me this...ever heard of reincarnation?

Phage: Not really, no.

Death: That's the deal for Ayami if you EVEN pass back to your world alive.

Phage: (pause) So wait. Does she turned into someone I don't know or will she be resurrected as herself?

Death: That's for me to know and YOU to never find out.

Phage: Fine...you have a deal.

Death: Good...but just one last thing, though...

Phage: Oh what now?

The skeleton's finger started to glow before it neared the Phage's head.

Death: Since THIS is a place that makes you feral and insane anyhow, I'd best give your mind a head start!!

Phage: (realizes) No...nooo, not-

Death: TOO LATE!!

The glowing finger touched the Phage's head as his eyes widened. The reptile gasped and grunted, starting to screech and groan, clenching his head. As that happened, Death placed the body in his bike before getting on.

Death: Yeah, good luck. You're gonna need all the bloody luck you're gonna get!

Finally, Death zoomed away while the Phage, starting to drool some blood, screamed in the air as he shouted.

Phage: RRRRRAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

(End of Act 1)
Final episode: The Phage finds Ayami and bargains with Death who makes a deal: survive the insanity of the planet he's on and Ayami would be reincarnated. However, afterwards, the Phage and Zeerus confront one another one last time for a huge showdown!
