It bitted GhostBoy's fingers, and escaped in a run. "DON'T JUST GO EATING MY SOUL!!" Lucas had uppercut GhostBoy, shocking him.

"Wha! Th-This is.." GhostBoy gasped as he checked Lucas.

"Lucas!!" Crip continuously with wiggled Lucas' body. "Please get up!!"

"What's going on?!" GhostBoy was confused, as Lucas' soul found his real body, dumbfounded as he was completely beaten up. "An Astral Projection?!!"

Lucas' soul gradually turned into an ethereal copy of his body. "So that's it! I don't quiet get how, but I'm like a ghost now, right?" Lucas in his astral body shouted.

If he can go back to his body now... No!

"Since were both ghosts.." Lucas went ahead and punched GhostBoy with his right hand. "..my attack might work now!!!"

GhostBoy was thrown not too far away, that made Lucas to chuckle. He just smirked and stared at the beaten GhostBoy.

"I don't remember much, but I feel like someone taught me this." Lucas angrily spoke, confident in his astral form. "How to use Astral Projection!"

It's about for a counterattack! Lucas returned from his near-death, having the power to alter GhostBoy!

"You came back to me as an Astral Soul.." GhostBoy whispered, now stranding before Lucas' soul, touching his attacked chin.

"Now, I can attack you!!" Lucas shouted and attacked GhostBoy with a powerful right hand job!

GhostBoy just resisted the blow, and stopped as he glided, not even losing his stance.

"Finally, my counterattacks are connecting!" Lucas happily smirked. "That stress from earlier... I'll relieve it by blowing you away!!!"

Lucas had simultaneously punched GhostBoy, with the ghost evading it. "What a surprise." GhostBoy whispered. "You're the first one to do this."

GhostBoy smirked, and began vanis.h.i.+ng. No, he went straight towards Crip, possessing him!

"POSSESSION!!"

Lucas was shocked, as Crip slowly turned towards Lucas' astral body.

He has dark eyeliner just like GhostBoy. "I am able to possess human bodies. I can freely control them as well." the possessed Crip said with the way GhostBoy speaks.

"No, no, no, no!" Lucas hesitated GhostBoy's move. "You can't win of you possess Crip!"

"But you can't attack a young, can you?" GhostBoy on Crip's body provocatively asked.

"Hmph.." Lucas thought about that question. He bowed his head, that soon darkened by the lack of light.

Crip just stared in contempt, as he heard Lucas said, "Sorry, Crip."

"I CAAAN!!!" Lucas proudly shouted, as he punched Crip's left cheek, surprising GhostBoy, who unpossessed Crip's body.

Leaving, he whispered, "He.. did that to a young boy.."

Crip slowly became conscious, and quickly sat. "NYAAAAAAH!!!!" he comically cried, holding his punched cheek. "IT HURTS!! IT HURTS AS IF I GOT SUDDENLY HIT!!!"

"To think there are trash owners like you who abuse their lackeys in this world.. " GhostBoy contemptuously whispered.

"Crip is a teammate." Lucas replied, cracking his right hands joints. "If he gets possessed by some weirdo, I'll hit him to get him out." he continued. "And I won't forgive who'd hurt him."

"Even though you're the one who hit him..." GhostBoy whispered, his body was moderately injured. "What an irrational person."

Lucas continued his rampage and kicked GhostBoy away with his left foot. "THAT'S WHO I AM!!!"

GhostBoy was a.s.saulted at his chin, and was being thrown far away.

"This one's power.. was equal to CorpseBoy's?!" GhostBoy claimed to himself. "He's quite strong!!" he continued, and started fleeing away. "I should withdraw for now!! I can't win unless I possess a stronger human!!"

"H-Hey?! You're running away?!!" Lucas angrily shouted. "WAIIIT!!"

"Waaah! My cheek still hurts and Lucas won't wake up." Crip cried in front of Lucas' real body. "What should I do?!! And it hurts..."

Lucas just watched Crip in a dumbfound, as he continued crying for him. He just returned to his body, saying, "Don't worry, Crip." he said expressionlessly, shocking Crip in a dumbstruck.

"GYAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!"

"I'll just turn back into an astral projection and fight that GhostBoy real quick." Lucas said in a quick pace, as he laid down still. "Guard my body!!"

Crip was puzzled, as Lucas quickly ran away with his astral form, trying to catch GhostBoy and defeat him.

However, GhostBoy was just flying away the city, finding a suitable human to possess. For him, just a strong one wasn't enough. He needed a human that Body Synchronize well with him.

The higher the Body Synchronization is... the more his power and the human's will be multiplied.

"That guy," Lucas angrily shouted, as he ran through buildings and buildings. "if he can pa.s.s through houses, then can I do that, too?" he added.

He continued rus.h.i.+ng towards the house in front of him, and he luckily pa.s.sed through! Yes, he did it!! And he won't break anything! Coach Clive won't be mad at him again.

"Wait.." Lucas stopped, "I saw Clive previously at the Center Hall.. Why was he there?"

Meanwhile, GhostBoy continued wandering the whole place. There are three conditions to increasing the Body Synchronization.

The first is... to have someone equal or greater magic power that the possessor.

The second is that... it has to be someone who has already seen the abyss of death.

The third is that... it has to be a relative. Since, GhostBoy has no family, that one can't be fulfilled.

He just needed someone that matched the first two conditions. He believed that there must be someone in this large city.

"I found one!" GhostBoy shockingly gasped.

"Waaaaiit!!!" Lucas shouted, as he ran through the deserted city, and soon stopped. "Where did he go?!! That guy..."

A person in a white robe slowly stood. It was later revealed to be Coach Clive himself!! Standing as if possessed —he has dark eyeliners.

"This body..." the possessed Coach Clive said grimly. "It has an incredible Body Synchronization."

Lucas was left dumbstruck! "CLIVE!!!" Lucas gasped as scared. "Did you just go into Clive's body?!!"

"My power multiplying into that.." Coach Clive stared at his right hand, walking towards Lucas. "...and gave way to unrivalled Magic Power!!"

Coach Clive stood in a confident manner, as he powered-up, scaring Lucas even more!

At the Amus.e.m.e.nt Park, Ever was still gripping Doll with her Snake Body. "Now then, Doll, be tainted.." she whispered at Doll's face. "Together, with us.."

Doll almost fell for this trap, but later be equipped with an eyegla.s.s! "That was close!!" she smirked. "The magic connects with eyes."

"S-Sungla.s.ses..." Ever gasped, as she was later held captive by Doll's spirit: Executer!

"I'll have to faint you for a moment." Executer said, as he choked Ever by his right arm, and his left arm holding her head.

"Sorry, Ever." Doll whispered, as Ever successfully fainted. "Thanks for the help, Executer."

Doll heaved a sigh, as Pea and the rest were preparing to continue their fights.

"I have just though of..." Doll smirked, as he reverted to her usual form. "...a plan to save everyone." she added, and started running, shouting,

"FIRST, I HAVE TO FIND NATH!!!"
