With a wave of his hand, Satoshi summoned Lighter, his unquenchable flames familiar. "Lighter! I choose you!" He declared.
Lighter immediately came out an orb of blue and whitish flame that rested a few inches above Satoshi's shoulders. Satoshi was surprised since Lighter seemed to be more powerful than before, its flames a nice bluish iridescent in color. Satoshi was mesmerized by it, but he didn't let it distract him so much since there was a life that needed saving.
Without a shred of hesitation, Satoshi ran towards the Black Winged Dragon despite its sheer size. Quite frankly though, Satoshi was scared out of his wits since the Black Winged Dragon seemed to be more intimidating and formidable compared to the Statue of Captivity. Still, Satoshi pressed on, swallowing every bit of anxiousness he felt and letting his adrenaline do all the heavy lifting. It was a somewhat uncomfortable feeling for Satoshi since he wasn't used to being overpowered by a threatening presence.
"Spires of flames, let's go, Lighter!" Satoshi ordered.
At that point, Satoshi was near enough to notice whom the two people were, immediately realizing that they were none other than Jack Michael, and Jean Grey.
"Haah?!" Satoshi impulsively exclaimed, confused that the two of them were together.
Just then, Lighter shot out an intense spire of flame that pushed out the wind in front of it, causing an intense pressure that could rival the Black Winged Dragon's aura. Like a laser, the spire of flame poured forth in a straight line, squarely hitting the Black Winged Dragon to the side and knocking it away. This gave Jean enough time to escape from its grasp and to summon Pheross, his Azure Blue Tiger Familiar.
"You all right, Jean?" Jack couldn't help but ask after heaving a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, thanks to you." Jean Grey sarcastically answered before turning his head toward the kid who just saved them. "Look kid, thank you so much for your help." He muttered before recognizing who the 'kid' was.
When Satoshi caught up to them, Jean Grey and Jack Michael let out a gasp after realizing that the person who jumped to their aid was none other than Midoriyama satoshi.
"Satoshi?" The two of them exclaimed, diving more into the state of confusion as they wondered why the two of them actually knew the kid.
"How do you know him? Have you met him before?" Jack Michael asked, perplexed.
"Yeah, you too?" Jean Grey returned.
"He's the owner of the Altered Type White Lion I was telling you about." Jack Michael stated.
"WHAT?! He's got an Altered Type White Lion even though he's already got an Alpha Red Salamander?!" An exclamation came out of Jean Grey's mouth. He couldn't believe that such a young teenager really possessed two powerful familiars.
"WHAT?! He's got an Alpha Red Salamander too?!" Jack Michael didn't want to admit it but Satoshi was much more talented than he initially thought.
An ear-splitting screech was heard from the Black Winged Dragon once again as it steadied itself. After staring at the Lighter and then at the three individuals in front of him, the Black Winged Dragon started charging as if its life depended on it.
"This is no time to be conversing!" Satoshi warned, getting out of harm's way thanks to the Nailgun that he summoned in a split second.
The Black Winged Dragon took off into the air before shooting some sort of black orb/energy ball from its mouth. Since Satoshi didn't know what that orb's effects were, he decided to dodge it. Jack Michael and Jean Grey opted to do the same thing as well since they could feel the sheer power of the Black Winged Dragon from that attack alone.
After firing off such monstrous amounts of energy, the Black Winged Dragon accelerated, appearing in front of Satoshi in an instant before charging another one of those black energy orbs in its mouth. Satoshi was at point-blank range, and he knew that if he didn't get out of the way, he'd be blown to smithereens... or worse.
Satoshi had a split second to choose from whatever options he had. But one thing's for certain— he had to get out of the way as soon as possible.
"Ghast!" Satoshi muttered. There was no time to lose, he immediately integrated with Ghast and stepped into the portal he created using him. He didn't have any choice. Even though his dad carefully warned him not to show off his powers, he had to do so in order to stay alive.
Fwoom~!
Faster than a snap of a finger, Satoshi got out of harm's way even before Jack and Jean could scream at him to get out of the way. Confused, they wondered how Satoshi managed to dodge that unavoidable acceleration and attack combo of the Black Winged Dragon. They were caught off guard with it before so they knew how fast the Black Winged Dragon actually was.
Adding to that, Satoshi seemed to have changed clothes out of nowhere. A few moments ago he was wearing normal casual clothes but right now, it shifted into a nice black robe that suited Satoshi's starkly black hair and black irises.
"I... I have a powerful attack that could bring the Black Winged Dragon down." Satoshi didn't waste any time telling everyone about the plan since they didn't seem to know what to do.
Well, they probably do but they didn't want to do anything since it would just result in an uncoordinated attack.
"Ah, I understand." Jean Grey suddenly responded without asking Satoshi the specifics. "You told us that because it takes some time to load, right? We'll hold off the Black Winged Dragon for you."
"We won't be able to hold it off for long though so you better make it quick." Jack continued.
"All right, I'm leaving everything to you." Satoshi's eyes narrowed as he pumped a fist in the air. Without further ado, he started charging his blue flames— not the flames of his fire familiar Lighter, but the flames of his superpower that will hopefully allow him to tame the Black Winged Dragon.
'Dex, any chance that this won't work?' Satoshi inwardly muttered.
