《Lazy Ash》4.Mind,Fire,and Jail
Advertisement
Knowing what was coming the second I started taking their air I moved, that goddam rocket is no joke.As it whizzed by and exploded this time I swear the building shrunk!Scared shittless I made sure to keep suffocating these two assholes because I knew that if they got a chance I was fucked.Plus I wouldn't do well in jail any motherfucker tries to use my ass as a pincushion was gonna motherfucking die!
Tech at that moment sent a last ditch effort at me but was to slow so I was able to dodge whatever the hell he shot.Eventually they both passed out and I took a breath of relief.
Whew man that was close those "warning shots"are still pretty fucked up though.That building looks like the remains of a pretty harsh war.Wait ar-are those walls completely ash!!!"Ok fuck this Alita how do I get myself off these twos minds?"
"Ill walk you through it, first place your hands on both of their heads.Good now feel the holy energy in your body."She says
"Wait what?"I ask confused
"The holy energy Ash.Look at yourself find the energy and tap into it."She lectures.
I was surprised as I didn't think there was anything "holy" about me but whatever. I did as she said and took a good look at myself as I cant turn my aura sight off I didn't have to much of an issue finding what she was talking about as I see it every time I look at her.
Well i'll be dammed I found it! Didn't know I had it but cool.
"You fucking moron we told you from day one We Are Connected!!!You have our abilities!If youd listen and train even a little bit youd know this!"Inari rages.
"Well sorry I've never been an active person and just because my soul got stuck to a Warrior of heaven and a Kitsune Assassin doesnt mean im going to change. I like who I am a lazy smartass who can make money doing not a damn thing. Once dad stops hacking my internet history!I saved you two and all thats done is bite me in ass from the start so excuse me for not wanting to pursue that path you arrogant over the top stuck up ninetailed BITCH!!!!"I vent
Alita and Inari were shocked speechless they have never seen me this angry or pissed at them before and they both know how much of a pain in the ass they are to someone like me.To top it off Inari looked pissed and hurt at the same time.While Alita looked like she wanted to say something.
"Ash we're-"
"No!!Stop!Look im sorry its just been a long few weeks ok?Less than a month ago I was your average super no one gave a damn about then I end up saving you two and get tied to your souls all because that damn link wouldnt let me touch it.Then im forced to share my mind and feelings, with you girls always looking over my shoulder.Then I end up being attacked by these asshole and i just snapped ok!Also waking with blue balls every morning it starting to take its toll so could you guys give me like an hour a week or something?"I throw in fingers crossed.
"Not a chance in hell!"they cried
"We share your room and I will not stay in a room that smells like that!"Inari sniffs.
I just smiled because I knew thatd cheer um up a bit.Then turned my thoughts back to Alita.

"Alright how do I Channel holy energy?"
"You need to focus on it, feel the pure power of the heavens, once you do channel it into your hands then have the energy flow into their minds."Alita states.
I tried to do as she said and focus on the energy but every time I thought I had it, it slipped through my fingers.As I was already pissed there was no way in hell a power that was mine was gonna resit me!I put more attention into it than i ever did in any game, hunting it down like a noob in Destiny making that bitch mine!
When I finally caught it I felt it flow through me as warm as mothers embrace I felt safe and secure as if someone was watching me at all times.Wait woah no actually scratch that I have two of those and this didnt feel like a hot chicks gaze, more like that feeling you get when your older and you realize he sees when your sleeping and he knows when your awake.The fat pedo bastard!
I then direct the energy into my hands and then into their skulls but have no idea what to do next so I look up at Alita questioningly.
"Now direct the energy to the Prefrontal lobe and insert it."Alita points.
Thank you health class you've become usefull yet again.I do that and then im hit with multiple images from two different view points and start to feel sick.
"Focus!!You need to think of it as a movie editor and you control every option.Now click stop."Alita hurries
And thats exactly what I did it seemed so simple when thought of that way.
"Next Scroll back to when they first saw your face then delete everything from then on.You did it!!"She sounded way to happy for someone who just taught me how to fuck with someones mind but ill let that sink in later.
"Yea but I feel oddly drained that took alot of effort."I say.
"Well off course do you think humans were meant to wield the powers of God?"Alita has a smug smile.
"What about priest or the the Pope?Everyone knows they can heal others."I ask.
"That is faith magic its incredibly common. Its granted to them due to their outstanding faith, in fact everyone who seriously practice any faith has this ability.They just dont realize it.They would if the church spread the news but they like to keep a hold on things and hide their secrets."Her voice gets darker toward the end.
Huh neat."You dont sound like you approve of them to much though?"
"After all the atrocities they've committed in the name of god! I was part of the group that wanted to annihilate them."She said with a evil glint in her eyes.Inari and I took a step back.
Note to self never truly piss off the angel.
"Well lets go ho-"
"Get away from them you bastard!"
Less than a second of hearing that I feel a huge hit to the back of the head and I fly forward.My face smashes into the ground and I start to black out.
God.....dammit............----
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ash.....Ash......
"ASH!!!"
"What im up!Im up!"I shoot up and say in a daze.
"Took you long enough now lets get the hell outta here!"Inari snaps.
"Outta wher-"
Taking a glance around I noticed im in what looks like a prison with the added bonus of diamond bars and a force field.

"Ummm...Why am I in jail?"I ask slightly worried.
"That bitch caved in the back of your skull, then when you didn't die she brought you here."She replies.
"Here is?"
"Mega tower."
......
FUCK!
----------
"How are they?"
"Their fine just unconscious."
"Hows our new guest?"
"He seems fine and has woken up once im done here im going to grab him and find out what he did."
----------
"Wheres Alita?"I ask
"Look at our souls."Inari says
I take a look and there she is.But somethings wrong. Shes curled into a ball and looks asleep.
"What the hell happened to her?"Genuinely worried.
"She saved you or did you miss the part where I said that bitch caved in your skull!? You were practically dead Ash.You were done for so Alita decided to use her power to save you and ended up like that.Shes fine just needs to rest."
Thanks Alita.
"Alright how do we get out of here?"I ask.
"No clue."
"Some help would be nice."
"I am."
"How?"
"Ive been holding an illusion on you this entire time noone can see your face its shrouded in shadows."She says
Huh neat."Well unless we figure something out theres no way out.Dont suppose you know how to use holy power?"I ask with a slight bit of hope.
She just gives me a look and says.
"No but I dont need to.Ive got an idea instead of her powers use mine."She smiles.
"Huh forgot about that.Explain."
"Dumbass.Now my powers are different Alitas comes from the holy energy its provided to her by her god.Mine is with me from birth and its in my blood.Which means its in your blood to."She says simply.
"In my blood?I thought we just merged souls?"I ask
"Yes and no.Since you have the soul of a kitsune it will naturally assert control over your body making sure it can handle the power.As a human body would fall apart.At least thats what Alita says."Inari says.
"Ok I dont think I have time for a full crash course so give me something easy but packs a punch."
"Alright but after we get outta here your going to train."
"Not likely but continue."
"Oh you will.What your going to use is Fox Fire.Its something all kitsune learn first it can pack the punch you need and is fairly easy to use."
"Really Fox Fire?"I raise my eyebrow amused.
"Hey it got its name not from us but due to its nature.Instead of hot fire it is cold fire and with it being the color green the name fits.That it happens to have fox in the name is just a bonus."She says with pride.
"Riiigght.How do I use it?"I roll my eyes
"Look for a source of cold that feels like a blaze in your body then grab it.Thats what we always tell the young who were to dumb to find it themselves."She instucts
Helpful...Whatever ill give it a shot. So with my body control ability I look within my body try to find the cold spot that feels like a blaze and when I do find it oddly enough there are three more spots surrounding it.One feels like a current of pure energy thats ready to go out of control.Another feels dark and angry but at the same time empty.The last feels even colder than the first ready to freeze any who come near.
Having no idea what they are I decide to just "grab" the fox fire.I feel a wave of cold wash over me but at the same time its warm and comforting weird.
I open my eyes and look at myself and im shrouded in a green blaze and try really hard not to freak out.
"Ok this is pretty fucking cool.But what were those other three?"I ask
"Other three!?Did you really-nevermind about those what you need to do now is concentrate and find a way to use the power you have now to get out.The fire works according to your will."
"Oh so kinda like the green lanterns power thats easy enough."I say understanding
"Right easy.If it were so easy then why would we have to train for-"
At that moment I was morphing the fire into a cone with a sharp pointed end with one hand and in the other im building a ball of concentrated fire continually condensing it to give it more power.
"-2 years.How the fuck did you do that!"She exclaims
"What? its not so hard even you said it was easy."I ask confused
"Yea to summon and shoot off a blast but your using it like a master.It would take years to use it like that with one hand but you did it in seconds,with both hands,and with two different forms!!!"She yells.
"Well I figured if its like Green Lantern then all I had to do was concentrate."
"Even he had to train!!!"
"Well im smarter than him and I can split my mind so something as simple as this is no problem.Now let me get back to work."
She stared shocked but remained quiet just to see what I would do.
First I sent the cone forward and slowly pushed it into the force field slowly increasing the point into it until i felt it pierce.As it did I pushed it forward until the end of the cone was in the field then I decreased the point until I had just a circle and expanded it.
Inari just looked on speechless then I sent my ball at that bars and dove for cover.
------------------------
*BOOM*
What was that!?
The prisoner he is escaping!
------------------------
Getting up I notice the force field is down and the bars obliterated, after pocketing a few of the shards.I take off running.
"Ok can you keep up the illusion and float out the building that way I know which way to blast."I tell Inari
"Sure"..Still somewhat shocked she takes off.In the meantime im condensing another ball of fire.
As im hiding behind what looks like a big ass computer with my ball of fire I hear voices.
"How the hell did he get out!?"
"I dont know not even Dread Knight can escape from here!"
"Hes gotta be close split up."
This is not good if they pass by me im screwed!The light from my ball of fox fire will give me away but if I stop condensing it I probably wont have the strength for another which means im not getting out of here.
Come on Inari!
Hearing me she snorts in disdain but does hurry and manages to find a way.She sends me the route and I take off.
"There he is!!!"
"Yea but try catching me assholes!"I shout out
"With pleasure!" All of sudden it feels like I crashed into a brick wall and land on my ass.I look up and see what I Hit.
Shit!!
