A Keychain of Girls

"That was so good...but I need more..." Koto breathed.

"Then turn over...I'm going to finger you like no other." Danny said, pushing Koto over onto her back.

He ran a hand down Koto's belly and pushed two fingers into Koto. She moaned and flinched at his fingers. He rubbed Koto's clit and fingered her deeply. Koto wrapped her arms around herself and moaned loudly, her legs squirming around on the bed. Koto cried out loudly and came under Danny's hand. She shuddered and squirted across the bed, cumming loudly. Koto panted and fell into the bed, limp as a noodle.

"And you said you would milk me dry..." Danny chuckled, sitting up.

"Who said...I...was finished!" Koto breathed, sitting up slightly.

She rolled over and held her ass in the air.

"I want it in the other hole now." Koto demanded.

"What?" Danny asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I love feeling every hole filled. While you do that, I'll do this." Koto said, holding her hand in front of her slit.

A sparkling purple dildo appeared in her hand and she pushed it inside herself.

"Okay..." Danny shrugged, not to be outdone.

He prodded her backside with his hard shaft. Danny wrapped his hands around her supple waist and pushed. His slick cock prodded into her hole, pushing past his head. Koto gasped and moaned, arching her back while leaving the magic dildo in her pussy. She barely kept herself up as Danny pushed himself inside her. Her hole was incredibly tight and it almost felt like it was sucking him in. He pushed last bit into Koto, filling her backside with hard meat.

"Ohh...yes Danny, yess! I love it! I love it!" Koto cried, falling to her elbows.

She collapsed into the bed and Danny pressed down on top of her, pushing in and out of her asshole. Koto gripped the bed sheets and her legs squirmed around beneath Danny. Her tail flicked about pleasurably, brushing around her back. Her ears twitched happily as shivers of pleasure shot up her back. Danny felt his orgasm cumming up and he buried himself as deep as possible inside Koto. She howled and squealed at the sudden deep violation. He pressed tight against her and came inside, blowing a thick load of cum deep in her ass. He twitched slightly and pulled out. Danny flopped down next to her and looked at her.

"Did...did you cum again?" Danny asked.

"I don't...think...I stopped..." Koto panted, "So good...so tired..."

"Come on, let's get some sleep. We both have something to do tomorrow..." Danny said, pulling Koto close.

"I would love to..." Koto said, kissing the arm that was wrapped around her.

Danny could feel her breasts under his arms and her backside pressed against his pelvis. The two of them fell asleep together, cuddled close together.

Chapter 33 - The Darkness

Danny awoke early. Something nagged at the back of his head. There was something wrong...but he couldn't place it. Opening his eyes, he looked around. Koto was dosing quietly curled in a ball at his side. Jen and Chiu were sleeping on the mattress and Joshua was curled up in a blanket on the other side of the room. Nothing seemed out of place. He slipped out of bed and dressed quickly and quietly.

He stepped out of the room, leaving everyone still asleep. Stealing down the stairs and out the front door, he stepped into the warm morning air and looked up at the sky. The sun was just rising and it's bright beams of light were catching the water in the distance beautifully.

Danny started down the scarce block and headed for the shore. For some reason, he wanted to take a swim today and his match wasn't scheduled for a few hours. He had plenty of time to wander off to the beach and come back. It only took him a half an hour to reach the beach at his slow, walking pace.

Stripping off his jacket and shirt, Danny kicked away his shoes and dove off the dock with a small splash. He looked around the crystal clear water around him. A beautiful and colorful reef was growing around the island. He kicked to the surface and took a breath of air. He kicked back and floated in the water. For some reason, he still couldn't shake that there was something wrong. Not with him, nor with his friends. There just seemed to be something off about the world.

Like there was something that didn't belong.

Shrugging it off, Danny turned over and disappeared under the surface of the water.

*******

"Where have you been?! Your match is in two minutes!" Jen said hurriedly, seeing Danny walking down the street towards the Inn.

"What? I thought it wasn't until noon!" Danny cried.

"It's eleven fifty eight!" Jen said, turning to jog along side him.

"Sorry mom!" Danny said, stopping for a second.

He crouched, his finger tips touched the ground and he jumped. The ground shook slightly with the eruption of magic from him as he launched into the sky. A single massive jump and he cleared the entire edge of the Arena. Through the barrier and onto the floor of the Arena, he landed on one knee, much to the pleasure of the crowd. They cheered happily, seeing him fall from the heavens and land in the Arena.

"And Danny enters the Arena a minute before his match is to begin. That's one fighter, now where is the other?" John asked, looking at the other side of the Arena.

There was a clamoring as a slave ran up to John and handed him a small piece of paper.

"What's this? Through extenuating circumstances, Danny's opponent is being allowed a substitute. It has been ten years since a viable substitution. Who is possibly stepping forth to fight him?" John asked excitedly.

"Who indeed?" Danny asked.

The crowd murmured in partial silence as nobody appeared. Something caught Danny's eye. A small spot on the other side of the Arena that was darker than the rest.

"You might as well come out. There is no way there could be a shadow in the center of an Arena with the sun high overhead." Danny pointed out, crossing his arms.

"Nothing escapes you does it?" A dark voice called around the Arena.

The shadow stretched and began to grow upward. It expanded like a balloon and gained details. A man in very dark robes with his face hidden in them stood before them.

"Another of shadows..." Danny said.

"Not another..." The Man said.

Danny recognized his voice...or thought it to be somewhat familiar.

"Neo?" Danny asked.

"Not far off." He said, pulling down his hood.

It was Neo, but his skin was colored like parchment and his eyes were blood red. Lines of black ran down from his eyes and he smiled with fanged teeth.

"If I killed you, how are you here?" Danny asked.

He pulled down the neck of his hood to show a black line about his neck.

"You did kill me, and you killed my host..." The man said.

"No...It can't be...not..." Danny groaned.

"You guessed it Danny my boy! I am back and I'm stronger than ever. After bringing this suckers body out of the cemetery, I did a little repair work and moved in!" Xexas laughed.

"How? Samantha banished you!" Danny called.

"Not even close. She swatted me away like you'd wave away a fly." Xexas smiled.

"I'm not waiting. You're not in any body I care about, so you're dead already." Danny said.

"I believe Danny has called the beginning of the match. So let it begin!" John called.

Danny stopped time, created a sword of glowing blue magic and dashed forward. By the time the crowd caught up with what he did, he had already slashed completely through Xexas' chest. He turned as the crowd gasped.

The massive slash through Xexas' chest was closing together. It looked as if he were made of black smoke. Danny slashed at him again. His sword passed harmlessly through him and he came back together. Slashing madly, Danny filled Xexas with lines that only healed themselves.

"And yet you are still incredibly dense." Xexas said, waving him off.

A massive hand of shadow back handed him across the entire Arena and left him against the barrier.

"How did you get so strong...Neo never had this strength, neither did you. Even together, you couldn't do this..." Danny groaned, getting to his feet.

"No, but each time you took a life, I took a spirit, growing in power the whole time. Then I spent last night hunting down the last three gladiators in the tournament and sucked them dry. Carms strength...the Grand Champions power...unbelievable power! And with the Chi from Zetsa, that Demon hunter...I am invincible. Once I kill you, I will be a god of all powers!" Xexas laughed and he raised his hand.

A massive black hand came up from Danny's shadow and grabbed him tightly, completely holding him. Danny struggled and the fist only tightened around him.

"I win Daniel. You cannot hope to defeat me...even with you precious little Samantha's Holy Magic." Xexas said, appearing in front of him suddenly.

"You were...gah...afraid of her..." Danny pointed out.

"I was not. Do you not think I can control my feelings just to trick you?" Xexas said simply, "I had her powers already remember."

"But you could...Aaaahhh!" Danny cried out as the fist clenched, "Never use them!"

"Bullshit! Demon Magic puts that Holy shit to shame. There was no need for me to use it." Xexas said.

"Really?" Danny asked, trying to stall while he formulated a plan.

"Yes, want to see how?" Xexas asked, stepping back.

He didn't wait for an answer. He held up his hands and a thousand black spears shot from the insides of his robes. The collided with the barrier at the same time, making it flash brightly and then, after a moment of delay, it shattered. Nearly a thousand people were speared through the heart and died in that moment.

"Danny my boy?! If I kill everyone in this stadium, what will that mean for you?" Xexas laughed, "Surely your precious sprites and lovely mother are up there too!"

He was shooting spears of darkness in all directions, killing hundreds of panicked and screaming people. The crowds were running, trying to get away. Those that could were teleporting away.

"How many is he going to kill? Has he gone..." John announced, "Why the hell am I still announcing, I'm getting the hell out of here!"

John ran for his life as Xexas killed more and absorbed more power.

"Enough!" Danny screamed and he exploded with Holy Magic.

The fist around him was shredded into a million threads of darkness. Danny was left standing with a glowing aura and Xexas stopped his massacre.

'Danny, we're all safe. I'll get them out of here, just take care of him.' Chiu's voice came into his head.

'We'll be okay without you.' April said.

'Do what you do best Danny!' Koto encouraged him.

"This is the end Xexas, I will finish you if it kills me!" Danny cried, holding his arms out.

A massive glow spread outward from him, circling around Xexas and over the top of him. In seconds, a golden, glowing dome was blocking them from the crowd.

"Well, you're half right!" Xexas laughed, lunging forward.

A long blade of shadow spread from his right hand and he aimed directly for Danny's heart. Magic rushed through Danny's body.

"No!" Danny cried, holding out a hand.

There was a thousand bright beams of light shoot from his palm, spearing through Xexas in just about as many places. He cried in pain and fell back, stumbling slightly.

"You cannot defeat me! Not when I have the strength of my friends and their master!" Danny strode forward.

"Strength of your friends! Ha, what a crock!" Xexas laughed, "You think just because you have one flashy bit of magic, you can defeat darkness incarnate?! Darkness is everywhere!"

"You're just a cockroach hiding from the sun!" Danny cried.

He Shundoed forward and enveloped his fist in holy magic. Xexas matched him and caught Danny in the midsection. Danny's blow landed across Xexas' face. The clash went blow for blow, emitting waves of darkness and light that radiated off the holy barrier around them. Danny raised his fists over his head and slammed Xexas brutally. He was knocked down under Danny's strength and he fell to the ground.

"Enough!" Xexas pressing his hands to the ground.

He sank into the shadows. Danny tried to strike at him, but Xexas was already disappeared. Danny stood up and stepped back. Xexas exploded from the ground and slammed into the top of the barrier. He was a racing shadow that barely resembled himself as he smashed into the barrier in a thousand different places. The barrier of holy magic crackled and exploded outward.

"Danny! I will defeat you!" Xexas cried, "And I know just where to do it!"

He shot up into the air and blasted back down at the ground. There was an eruption and a thunderous explosion. Xexas disappeared into the ground and the ground fell away. A massive, jagged edged portal appeared, taking up a third of the Arena. Light sparkled and stretched about the portal. Danny cried out angrily and launched forward, dashing into the portal of darkness.

Chapter 34 - Battle Over Tokyo

Danny felt his body explode forward, flying through a dark realm. He had no idea where he was or where he was going, but he knew that he had to stop Xexas wherever he was off to. He cried out as he burst into a cold, thin air. He was high above a glowing bright city.

"Welcome Danny!" Xexas was floating a few hundred feet from him, "To Tokyo!"

They were floating high above a brightly lit, night Tokyo. The air was thin and cold at their altitude. The sky was crystal clear above them and the stars were in a beautiful band across the sky. Tokyo was cold at the moment. The last few weeks, it had cooled off considerably. In winter, Tokyo got down near freezing and sometimes lower.

"Xexas, no! Don't do this! We cannot fight here!" Danny called.

"Ha! Danny, to think you actually believe you have a chance! I wonder how strong I'll get if I kill every living thing down there?" Xexas laughed, "Let's try this!"

He raised his hand over his head and swung downward. A single dark spear launched from his hand and hit someone among the populated street. A woman fell dead from the blow.

"Yaaah!" Danny screamed, launching forward.

He swung at Xexas with a blade of magic. It sliced cleanly through his shadow form.

"That's no the real me, again!" Xexas called from above him.

Danny blasted him with a rogue beam of magic. It passed through him as another few Xexas' appeared near them.

"You'll never catch the real me. In the mean time, I think I'll kill a few!" Xexas said, all of his shadows starting to throw dark spears.

Xexas started to appear by the dozens above Danny. They were all purple shadows of him, all being seen by the glow of the city lights. Danny looked around in desperation, seeing all of the spears being thrown. He swore he could almost feel each one dying.

"No!" Danny screamed.

He raised both of his hands above his head and a spark of golden light. It grew to a basketball sized orb and he pointed it towards the city. A dazzling explosion of light erupted him his hands and shot towards the city below. It struck the peak of the Tokyo Sky Tower at well over six hundred meters off the ground. It spread outward in a dazzling spread of lights, looking like an extremely bright Aurora. Shooting outward at an amazing rate, it spread out over the city, intercepting Xexas' spears. It covered over the eight hundred square miles of the city, completely protecting it's citizens from Xexas.

"Danny! I am impressed! Protecting a whole city from my wrath, but how long can you do it?!" Xexas cried from a hundred different voices at once.

Danny felt as if he could hold it forever. Xexas' Demon Magic was evaporating on the holy barrier without even making a mark. He kept multiplying himself and Danny was starting to notice something. The more Xexas multiplied, the stronger the barrier got. The Holy Magic was feeding off the Demon Magic. As Xexas put out more, the shield got stronger. It was glowing bright enough to light up the city like a bright noon sun.

Danny decided it had gone on just about long enough. He fed magic into the barrier and made it back feed into the sky.

"Hey...What're you...ah...uh...aaaahhh!" Xexas cried out in pain as the shield grew to blinding intensity and shot upward in a million spears of golden magic.

Every single shadow of magic was shredded and the real Xexas was left with four golden spears through his chest. Danny blasted towards him as the barrier sparkled brightly like a gem. He grabbed Xexas by the throat and ripped him from the glowing spears of light.

"You...cannot...end me...I am...immortal..." Xexas gurgled, blood spitting from his mouth.

"I can and I will. You will die now!" Danny said, trying to figure out how to end Xexas.

Suddenly his body was filled with pain as Xexas' hand touched his side. Xexas escaped from his grasp and he repaired his body completely by phasing into shadow and back.

"D...Damn...that hurt..." Danny groaned, grabbing his bloody side.

Xexas had used the shadow of his own palm to stab Danny in the side. Before he could try and heal it, Xexas back handed him. Danny started to fall.

The barrier was sparkling and dissipating, falling over the city in a glowing rain. The wind whipped about Danny, blood dripping from his cheek and running from his side. He slammed into the top of a skyscraper and barely covered his body in magic. He crashed through the top floor and slammed into the floor of a large master suite. Danny groaned and stumbled to his feet. A woman was screaming from her spot on the bed.

"Sir?! Sir, are you okay?!" The woman cried.

"Yea...ohh...get out of here...pull a fire alarm and evacuate the building...your in danger..." Danny groaned, holding his side, he fell to a knee.

"What? What're you talking about?" The woman asked.

"A danger...demon...is coming...and...he..." Danny was cut off by a blast of dark magic came through the hole in the ceiling.

It exploded near Danny and threw him across the room. Things were knocked off shelves and just knocked over. The woman screamed in terror.

"Get out!" Danny cried, getting to his feet.

Danny poured magic into the more serious wounds he had, including the one in his side. He left most of his more simple lacerations in order to save magic. just as the the stab wound in his side was healing up, the woman ran for her life. He stepped beneath the large hole in the ceiling and looked up. Xexas was floating only feet above the ceiling. Danny couched and leapt, exploding out of the hole.

The woman was standing in the doorway and she ran for the emergency staircase in order to run to the ceiling and watch.

"Still have some fight left in you? You were always thick headed and stubborn." Xexas chuckled.

"I'll show you thick headed!" Danny cried, punching Xexas in the stomach with a fist enveloped in golden magic.

His fist went through him and Xexas appeared behind him, stabbing him full in the back with a dark blade. Danny screamed in agony and blood spouted from his chest. The woman down in the doorway squealed in horror. Xexas wrapped an arm tightly around his neck and shoved the blade further through him, twisting it cruelly. Blood sprayed out in a red mist.

"This is it Danny...This is the end." Xexas said quietly, "I will kill everyone. Only demons will rein."

"Over my...cold...dead...corpse..." Danny grunted, tasting blood in his mouth.

"That's a distinct possibility." Xexas smiled.

Danny's body exploded in pain as Xexas ripped the blade out his side. Blood erupted out from the mortal wound and Xexas dropped him. He slammed into the roof of the building and lights blinked out from his vision. Danny felt his life leaving him.

*******

Gasping and sitting up quickly, Danny cried out in horror. He grabbed at his side, feeling around for the massive wound. It was gone and he was sitting in his gladiator outfit, completely untouched and fine. All around him was bright white. A nice ambient fog floated around him. He got to his feet slowly and looked around.
