him, it was like a mirror image. There were two Jackos,
“Are you seeing this Heiro?” Z ander asked.
There was no res ponse, Heiro had also been rendered speechless. “This is my ability; it’s my body double technique. It has all the strength that I do.” Jacko explained. Zander cast his wind spell again but the second body blocked the attack with its blade. “It is no use, the double automatically blocks any incoming attacks aimed at the original.” Jacko said.
“We cou ld try the combination again?” Zander said looking to Heiro for an idea.
Jacko laughed, “Don’t even bother with your little fire show; it won’t take me down that easily.” He said. He was right the combination attack took a lot of magick to perform in the first place; they had to think of another plan. They had to resort to physical attacks for now.
Each of them ran towards one of the Jacko bodies and tried to strike them but was blocked again. “Cross Cleaver!” Jacko shouted as the bodies crossed their blades in an X shape sending out a wave of energy damaging Zander and Heiro’s limbs and throwing them off balance.
“There’s minimal damage, it’s like he’s toying with us.” Heiro said as he quickly examined their wounds. They tried to separate the bodies by each taking one but it was no use, the bodies stayed together in the same location. They exchanged blow after blow not getting anywhere, they were beginning to feel exhausted. “What if I used my blood sword technique?” Heiro asked.
“You don’t have enough magick for such a strong technique, besides you won’t be able to maintain it for long.” Zander said. Zander was right, after Ivory struck Heiro during their battle and destroyed the evil essence; Heiro had lost the power to maintain that technique for long. If he tried to use it now, it would surely kill him.
“Are we going to finish this or not? Im bored.” Jacko asked. They hadn’t even put a dent into the original or the double; they were a very formidable team. “Cross Cleaver.” Jacko said attacking them again, this time it was more powerful and it knocked them backward onto the ground.
“I think I have an idea, focus on the body double.” Heiro said trying to stand. Zander knew now more than ever he had to trust him, if he didn’t neither of them weren’t going to make it. “Earth Art: Stone Bindings.” Heiro said as the earth covered the double’s legs and had begun to harden. The body tried to break itself free but couldn’t move, “Now Zander!” Heiro shouted.
Zander ran up behind the second Jacko and pierced its chest with his b lade. The attack had no effect the double had gotten free, grabbed Zander and threw him across the field. He struggled to get to his feet, “How is he alive?” Zander asked. Heiro thought for sure that attack would have finished the double off, and then it hit him. He knew why the double hadn’t died; now he knew how to beat them. He used his earth binding spell once more, and this time on both Jacko bodies.
“You can’t defeat us with mere physical attacks.” Jacko said.
“Who said anything about physical attacks? Earth Art: Stone Prison.” Heiro said as the stones came from the ground one by one surrounding them and blocking them in. “Zander aim your wind spell for the center of that wall.” Heiro instructed.
Z ander used the spell to create an opening in the wall, “Okay go for it.” He said.
“Flame Art: Great Fire S tream!” Heiro shouted spitting the fire into the hole. They could hear Jackos screams from outside; both bodies had been baked alive.
Zander rushed over to Kerra and held her. “I knew you would come for me.” She said weakly.
“Of course I would.” He said smiling. He picked her up and carried her as they had begun to walk back toward town. “So you had to end up defeating them both at the same time?” Zander asked.
“That seemed to be the deal; of course I wasn’t exactly
