Hello, this is my first story. I'm hoping everyone likes it! Reviews are more than welcome! Anyway, enjoy~!
The white stallion strode through the forest, a young male sat perched on it's back. Behind the stallion and it's rider; there was a yellow and brown stallion with a female, the same age as the male, gracefully sat on the back of the horse. The two stallions trotted to a stop, when the male let out a gentle "whoa". The girl pushed some of her stray blonde locks from her face back into her hair. Her porcelain skin shone in the light and her gentle hazel eyes glinted as she looked to the young male beside her. His gentle green eyes held a somewhat wary look before he pulled the hood of his forest green cape down. His teal hair slipped out from the velvet-textured material as he let out a soft exhale, his ivory skin catching the light with an appealing glow. He bit his lip, careful not to bite down too hard, when his gaze slid to the stallion beneath. It's wings spread and the sapphire-coloured horn shimmered. The stallion was just as wary as the bluenette; his proud head lowered gently to the floor, where his horn brushed against the grass. He let out a soft snort as his blue eyes looked to the male sat atop him.
"Sapphire? Easy... Just relax." The bluenette whispered these words to the stallion gently.
"Something is wrong, Johan... I do not like it here..." The stallion replied, almost growling. The name of this stallion was Sapphire Pegasus, a transportation/fighter monster. These monsters were adapted to the world outside of their gems and could stay for long periods of time before reverting to gem form. Perched on the bluenette's shoulder was a small feline-like creature that had purple fur. This creature had two sets of ears and a beautiful ruby placed in it's head. It's body was sleek and it's fur was maintained and glossy. It's tail fur was fanned out at the end and held an alluring spherical ruby. Johan smiled and felt the little creature brush it's head against his chin and purr contently.
"Ah... Hello, Ruby Carbuncle."
The well-groomed Carbuncle mewed gently before it's ears perked up. It seemed startled and slid back down into the back of the cape that Johan wore. The two humans exchanged glances and a nod before Johan spoke up again.
"Asuka, we should check the area. It might be a rogue monster attack." Johan's words held strength as he spoke to the blonde. She nodded and rode off ahead of Johan, only to be followed soon. When they came to halt, Johan's green eyes met with the sight of a boy about his age. The boy had orange hair at the top which became gradient into a warm brown and determined chocolate eyes. He had warm ivory skin that was full of youth and energy. The brunette wore an outfit that consisted of black, white and red. He had a black and red jacket that loosely clung to his lanky build, allowing freedom of movement, and white ripped jeans that had considerably large tears at the knees, allowing them to bend well. Beside him was a blue monster with slight tinges of yellow on it's outfit and helmet, accompanied with circular orange areas. From it's back there were two large blue wing-like parts that made it rather aerodynamic. Johan could tell that the monster his eyes were looking at was a fighter. But when his gaze trailed to the right, he bit his lower lip. There was a rogue monster, bitter air hung around it and it had clearly been deformed due to the twisted heart it now held. Johan debated about helping or not, but settled on watching. He could chime in when the time was right.
Johan's green gaze held firm as he watched the boy skid back as he landed, narrowly missing an attack from the rogue. It wasn't long until the brunette slipped his hand into his back jean pocket and fished out another monster gem. The colouration was beautiful, silver throughout with clear lines of blue or red. He hesitated for a while but soon the gem gleamed, flashing and erupting into a burst of light that shared the same colours. Johan shielded his eyes with his left arm and waited for the glow to die down before he looked again. Another fighter monster was there, with the same silver colour all over. It had bright blue eyes and Johan took a while to get all the details. There was a yellow gem in the monster's forehead that had a long streak of blue that went all the way up to the end of a point on it's head. It's neck had a dark blue patch with red lining. On it's shoulders were two large silver pads, like a suit of armour. It's chest held three red triangles that pointed opposite a blue circular gem embedded. The monster overall had a lean build. It's forearms had two fin-like things that went into a triangle with a sharp point. Johan watched as the new fighter monster leaped into the air and tore into the rogue monster. The rogue let out a shrill shriek before it split into halves. The two parts fell the opposite way from each other before a dark glow enveloped the corpse and dissipated. Johan's gaze went back to the brunette, who let out a sigh and stumbled back. There was a visible slash across his chest and his jacket had now darkened in the black areas due to blood that leaked out. A small, brown winged furball soon slipped out from behind a tree and fluttered over to the brunette.
"Kuri? Kuri, kuri." The brown fluffball tilted it's body slightly as it looked at the brunette who smiled gently.
"Ah, Hane Kuriboh... Sorry ya hafta see me like this," the brunette's words were quiet as he spoke before he coughed gently. The winged furball, known as Hane Kuriboh, got closer and let out a gentle squeak. "You can't heal these, they're not monster wounds. I got them from the rogue wielder, who attacked me with his bloody sword... They're mortal wounds, Hane."
Ruby's ears perked as it heard 'mortal wounds'. It leapt off Johan and rushed to the brunette. Soon it jumped up onto the male and lowered it's tail over the injury. Hane Kuriboh and the boy seemed surprised at the sudden appearance of another companion monster. The jewel on the carbuncle's head glimmered and the tail's ruby also glowed. Ruby closed it's eyes and when it reopened them, the wound was close. The tear on the jacket proved that, showing nothing but clear and bare skin. Johan seemed a bit shocked and ran after Ruby. He let out a gentle groan as he looked Ruby dead in the eyes.
"Ruby! I know you just wanted to help, but you know better than to run to someone you have never met before..." Johan's words were gentle scolds, Ruby just chirped and hopped back onto Johan's shoulder before the bluenette looked the brunette properly in the eyes, "Are you alright?"
The brunette nodded as he looked over the bluenette that stood before him. A cute companion monster belongs to gorgeous guy like this? Wow, my lucky day. The brunette took in the other's appearance and held back a blush. The male before him wore a pale lavender long sleeved shirt that had soft frills at the end of the sleeves, while the collar of the shirt had a more prominent plum lining. He noticed that he wore black trousers that hugged his legs, which transcended into white riding boots. The male's ivory skin made him alluring green eyes even more noticeable. He hesitated for a while and attempted to look away, noticing the look in the handsome male's eyes go from concerned to slightly confused. The brunette then noticed Ruby sat on the other's shoulder and raised a brow. His brain only then kicked in. Wait... Really good looking, a carbuncle companion monster... HOLY! The brunette then paled and almost freaked, startling the bluenette instantly.
"Holy crap! You're Prince Anderson!" The brunette's words came out unintentionally loud, making the prince wince slightly. The bluenette nodded gently as the brunette seemed to burst from the inside out. He then noticed the smaller male fluster and watched as he bowed his head quickly. "I'm sorry you met me like this. My name's Judai Yuki."
"Judai, huh?" Johan blinked before he smiled and gently placed a hand on the brunette's shoulder. Judai seemed to jump at the kind touch. "It is a pleasure to meet you. But please, don't call me Prince Anderson... I would prefer being called Johan. But, whatever is easier for you is fine."
Judai was about to speak before he heard three voices echo in the area.
"Aniki!" and "Judai-sama!"
The brunette blanched slightly when the slightly more feminine voice chimed in. He let out a soft groan and turned to see three people. A tall, dark-skinned, dark-haired male with dark green eyes. Johan could only describe his skin tone as honey or golden. A short, porcelain skinned male with bright blue hair and grey eyes and finally a short, warm ivory skinned girl with dark purple hair and chocolate brown eyes. All three of them had yet to notice Johan and all perked when they heard Judai say their names.
"Kenzan, Sho, Rei. What're ya doin' here?"
"Looking for you, Judai-sama." Rei smiled and flicked her dark hair gracefully (or so she thought). Judai seemed to bite the inside of his cheek to contain a groan. Johan held back a chuckle and restricted a smile as he watched the scene unveil.
"Yeah Aniki! Ya need to let us know if you're goin' to kick ass-don." Kenzan grinned, his dark eyes gleamed with what anyone would describe as a childish spark. The short bluette glared at the much taller dark-skinned boy and mumbled something. It was along the lines of: 'Aniki's my aniki, not yours Kenzan.'
Johan shifted a bit as Ruby chirped calmly. The little sound made Rei look up and over to where the cute sound came from. Her brown eyes then landed their gaze on Johan. She acknowledged his presence and appreciated his good looks before her eyes trailed down to where Ruby sat perched on his shoulder and squealed. Kenzan and Sho both raised a brow.
"It's... So... cute!" She squeaked as Ruby jolted at her sudden outburst. Judai cringed, being right next to her as she squealed like a little girl. "Ah! Oh my god! It's so freaking adorable! I want it!"
"OW! My fucking ears...!" Judai groaned as he heard ringing in his now part-deaf ears. Johan seemed to jump when he heard Rei pretty much scream. His green eyes went to Asuka, who was now off her stallion. She just smiled coyly and showed she wanted no part of this. Johan held a groan and looked to Judai, who was still cringing and had covered his ears. He simply mouthed the words 'my fucking ears! I'm going deaf!'
