Izumi walked out of her high school, the air was calm and cool. As she walked down the stairs a teen called out to her.
"See ya Izumi!" She turned around and waved back at her fellow class mate.
"See you Monday Kayon." Izumi called.
Before she could turn around a dark figure came up behind her, a dark ominous force sending chills down her spine.
"Have a good day at school?" Izumi jumped slightly then turned to see a man wearing blue jeans, a white shirt, and a cowboy hat. He had green eyes, brown hair and a bit of a beard.
She sighed "Papa... what are you doing here? You scared me half to death."
Her dad just stared at her then replied, "What? A father can't pick up his own daughter from school once in a while?"
Izumi smiled "I thought you had a meeting to go to."
"Oh that? I canceled it." He replied simply.
Izumi looked surprised "Are you allowed to do that?" They began walking to the parking lot.
Her dad just smiled "I'll do what I want; besides I didn't want to go anyway." They arrived at the car with their backs to the school. Mean while two demons sat on the roof of the school awaiting their chance at their target.
"Remember, kill the old man." The leader whispered to his companion.
The second demon smiled viciously "Gladly." He swung his arm releasing a poisonous dart.
On the ground Izumi was desperately trying to tell her father something "Papa I..." She caught the dart between her middle and index finger before it hit her fathers back.
"Izumi?" Her dad asked in confusion seeing the sudden change in mood on her face. She quickly hid the dart from sight.
"No way! She caught it!" The second demon said astonished at her quick speed.
Izumi smiled at her dad "I realized I for got something in my class."
"Oh." Was the only response her father could give her.
"Why don't you wait in the car while I go and get it." She opened the car door for him. Her dad entered the car hesitantly.
"All right but hurry back." He replied closing the door.
Izumi walked back to the school and once she was out of her father's sight she broke into a run, going left out another door leading into an alley. Gazing up the wall she ran fast jumping on to the wall. Once on, she quickly jumped to the wall opposite her, and then repeated the step allowing her to jump up to the roof.
After there first attempt failed the lead demon turned to the second "Try again!" he yelled.
"But. She saw us." The second complained.
"So what! Will kill the old man before she can even get here!" The first bellowed.
The second demon sighed, "You're the boss."
"STOP RIGHT THERE!" Izumi had just managed to arrive moments before the demon unleashed another one of his darts. Both demons turned around to face her.
"Well, Well, Well, if it isn't Shishikyo." The first demon stated. Izumi's eyes widened in shock.
"How do you know my true name?" She asked in surprise. The first demon smiled triumphantly.
"Oh come now, it wasn't that hard to figure out." He chuckled.
"What do you want? Why are you here?!" Shishikyo growled angrily.
The second demon stepped forward "Your father." He said in a mater of fact tone. Shishikyo glared at them.
"He has something our boss wants." The leader elaborated. Shishikyo clenched a fist in warning.
"You stay away from him!" She hissed.
The first demon smirked "Or you'll what?" He then looked at his partner and replied, "You'll kill us!!" At that moment the second demon threw a wave of poison darts.
Shishikyo dodged them, and then pulled out the poisonous dart she had hidden beneath her clothes. Before he could react she threw it at its creator, piercing his throat.
The second demon started laughing, "Did you honestly think I would be affected by a poison I made! FOOL!!"
He pulled the dart from his neck "POISON ARROW'S!!" He waved his hand through the air, while dozens of poisonous arrows shot forward toward Shishikyo. She jumped dogging them. The arrows missed her arm but still one managed to graze her sleeve leaving a tiny hole.
She landed, His arrows are much more concentrated than his darts, I must be cautious. She thought to herself as she landed. The first demon conjured his fingers into blades then charged at her. She did a back flip, Their attacks are strong but there reactions are slow.
Shishikyo dodged another spray of arrows. Then holding out her hand a rose materialized out of thin air, she closed her hand around it and yelled " ROSE WHIP!"
As she ran across the roof, dodging their attacks, the rose formed into a whip. The demon with the blades is the biggest threat, I'll take him out first! She lashed out. The first demon stopped to block her attack with his blades
"DAMIN IT!" He yelled angrily.
The second demon jumped forward seeing an opining "Got her!" He unleashed a rain of poisonous darts.
Shishikyo sensed the attack and jumped backwards, as she did a tree sprang forward blocking the attack.
"What!" The second demon stated as he watched the tree disappear.
Shishikyo jumped forward and yelled "Rose darts!" Just as before, four roses materialized out of nowhere and she threw them toward the second demon pinning him to one of the schools air vents.
The first demon charged again blades outstretched "I'LL CUT YOUR HEAD OFF!!" He shouted swinging his blades at her.
Shishikyo dodged her attacker this time seeing an opening. She lashed her whip cutting off his right hand. As he screamed in pain she lashed her whip from left to right cutting off his head. His body fell to the ground neck gushing blood with its head not but three feet from it. The second demon escaping from the vent jumped toward her. She saw him coming so she lifted a hand in the air and said "Petal dance!"
Suddenly there was a gust of wind and rose petals began to materialize from her hand, they began to circle her at an alarming rate as a result cutting the demon into thousands of pieces.
"Nuisance..." She stated as her rose whip disappeared and she began her walk back to the parking lot and her father.
"Sorry it took so long." Shishikyo said as she got into the car.
"That's alright. Huh...what happened to your sleeve?" Her father asked seeing the hole in her shirt.
"Huh..." She looked down at it, "Oh…It got caught on the railing when I went up the stairs." She replied fingering the hole in her sleeve. Her father didn't continue the matter; he started the car and drove down the street heading out of town. They came to a red light.
"Well now that you have a couple of weeks off, what do you want to do?" Her father asked.
Shishikyo looked out the window "Actually papa... I'm going to the city." She said not wanting to make eye contact with him.
Her father didn't say anything so she added "Me and some people..." She looked at him now and the light turned green.
"What kind of people?" He asked, now serious.
"Oh just friends..." She replied, nervously, "We're leaving tomorrow morning."
Her father sighed, "Well I can't stop you, just be careful." He stated looking at her for a moment before turning his attention back to the road.
"I will...we're taking the subway." She smiled glad her father agreed to let her go.
