FC Fighters Chapter Forty Eight: The Emerald Heart

Chapter Forty Eight: The Emerald Heart.
As the sun rose in the sky, Maxus got to his feet and called out "Alright Donnis! Lets get this over with!" However Donnis didn't awnser. Maxus found him snozzing nearby and nudged him with his foot. "Come on you sack of sand!" cursed Maxus impationtly. "Do you know what time it is?" cursed Donnis with one eye half open. "Time for our fight!" snapped Maxus. A sudden blast of energy hit Maxus in the gut, knocking him back, as Donnis got to his feet. "You asked for it!" called Donnis, cracking his knuckles. Donnis shot a wave of chaos energy at Maxus, who dove to the side. Maxus opened fire with his gun just to have Donnis knock his shots right back at him. Jacky stood back and watched as Donnis punched Maxus through a wall into the cliff side. 'Man he's tough!' thought Maxus. Donnis fired another wave of chaos energy at Maxus. While he dodged it, Maxus tossed a black flame at Donnis's feet. Donnis quickly kicked it away before the blast as Maxus lunged towards him from the side. Maxus tackled Donnis and stared to pound him in the head, but Donnis just tossed him off into the shrine's walls. Donnis gave Jacky a flirtatious glance before rushing at Maxus. Maxus tossed a fire snake just before Donnis got close and the blast knocked Donnis off the cliff. Maxus and Jacky watched as Donnis tumbled down the steap cliff bouncing hard off the rocks and stopped at the base of the cliff. Maxus was horrified, did he just killed Donnis. They watched for a few tense moments before Donnis slowly got up to his feet. "I'm ok.." he grouned, "You win.." Suddenly Donnis hopped back up the cliff. He stood before Maxus and Jacky as if he wasn't injuried and panted "That was some trick you pulled." "You're not hurt?" asked Jacky. "I heal faster then most." replied Donnis. "I thought that I.." started Maxus. "Killed me?" laughed Donnis, "A fall like that is nothing for me. But what's with those fire attacks?" "It's something I know." said Maxus, "But you are just going to give up like that?" "Yeah." smiled Donnis, "I may have an Emerald heart, but it isn't as strong as the real macoy." "Emerald heart?!" said Jacky confused. "It's difficult to explain.." said Donnis, "But anyways, I said that I'd help you two get down from here so.." Donnis grabbed Maxus and Jacky by their arms and shouted "Hold on!" Donnis hopped from ledge to ledge dragging Maxus and Jacky to the far end of Rocky Ride Zone to the edge of Star Shore Zone, where Madam Mystar was waiting for them. "I see that the fight is over." she said with disapointment. "Yeah." said Donnis lowering his head. "I see..Well Maxus," said Madam Mystar, "Your next opponent is at the old manor-house at the edge of Gloom-Ruin Swamp. You'll have a four days to get there..." With that Madam Mystar walked away and Donnis said "I got stuff to do so see you around."  Donnis rushed off back towards the monuntains and Jacky said "Well that was different. I must be going home now." Jacky ran off leaving Maxus alone with his thoughts. 'Hm...How long before I fight Goro? Unless he was liying to me.' Maxus rushed off and found his way to the dock. There he saw a ship and he asked "Do you know how to get to Gloom-Ruin Swamp?" The sailor looked at Maxus blankly and said "Why you want to know? Don't you know how dangerous that place is?" "How so?" said Maxus with confusion. "That place drives all who enter into madness..." said the sailor, "That is if they ever get out again."
