Hey everybody! AnimeFanofAllKinds here! This is my second fan-fiction submitted to this site for those new to my writing!

Bang x Litchi ahead! ;)
Am I too late…?
LITCHI P.O.V
"For God's sake Tao, what do you want?" I sighed; Tao's daily interruptions were finally starting to get to me. My temper was slowly slipping from me. But when Tao had careened into my clinic today with a worried look on her face, I had no choice but to stop what I was doing and listen to what she had to say.
"It's scruffy man! He was fighting with somebody!" I groaned.
"Isn't that what he's always doing…?" I mumbled. All of this worrying for nothing. Oh well. I was going to turn back to my work when Tao turned me back around forcefully.
"Tao isn't done." she insisted. Tao pouted. "He was fighting with big fat fibber guy! But big fat fibber guy was super ultra strong and beat him! Then he got out his big robo-thingy and they dragged him off somewhere! He needs help nyow!" Tao wailed. I cringed. I was actually pretty shocked! Bang may be big and burly, but I guess Relius Clover was able to bring even him down with his Deus Machina Nirvana, which he named Ignis. They were quite a force to be reckoned with. And Bang Shishigami out of all people decided to toy with him. I had a small crush on Bang, so I was really worried by this point. It was time to go save him.
"Show me where they went off to." I said seriously. Tao nodded and grabbed my arm. We sped out of the clinic and Tao led me to the exact place where the fight had happened. "What direction did they flee in?" I asked.
"That way, meow!" Tao shouted, and pointed northwest.
"Okay…" I headed off in that direction, Tao right on my heels. But up came problem #1. What the hell does his house look like? I cursed under my breath, it such an obvious obstacle! I started to think. He used to work alongside Kokonoe, so he was sort of like a scientist. He was also Colonel of the Novus Orbis Librarium… correct? Being so important, he should live in a mansion…
"Booooobie lady! Is this the place?" I snapped out of my pondering state and stopped walking. Right in front of our faces was a huge wooden mansion painted a deep purple. Sort of what I imagined. So that meant… we're actually at Relius'… house? I guess so. I walked up some rickety wooden steps and reached the enormous doors. "Weeell, what are you waiting for, Boobie Lady? Let's save scruffy man!" Tao then rammed headfirst into the doors, opening them with ease.
But as soon as she busted through the doors of the house, she went plummeting down a bottomless pit, screaming as she went. I was terrified. I couldn't even move I was shaking so much!
"T–TAO!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. After I screamed, I heard a voice. I was positive it was Relius', I could tell.
"I'm surprised… Somebody actually fell for that trap! Well, why don't you go handle them, Ignis? I'll stay and… work … with our other specimen." I cringed. They had two of some of my best friends, Tao and Bang. Relius is going to pay! I jumped over the pitfall trap with ease. It was time to get some revenge on Relius.
BANG P.O.V
If Litchi had entered in a screaming contest, she'd be in first place as soon as she yelled, with a big fat blue and gold ribbon. I've never heard my sweet Litchi in such pain and desperation. When I was free and charged up, I was going to beat that bastard Relius senseless! But I could do nothing now; I was kneeling down, and my hands and legs were tied, slowly cutting off my blood circulation. (1) I hung my head. I heard the wicked laughing of Relius.
"Now… Bang Shishigami, was it? Let us begin." All he had to do was snap, and then mounds and mounds of something appeared behind me. Before I could turn my head to look, Relius spoke. "Cinderblocks, if you were wondering." He said. I looked up at his mask-covered eyes. I glared at him.
"And what are you going to do with them?" I spat back. He laughed his twisted laugh.
"Oh, nothing. Probably just…" He cut off his sentence with yet another snap of his fingers. Just after that, five incredibly thick cinderblocks were placed roughly upon my thighs.
"Gah!" I grunted; these things hurt like hell! They felt as if they were going to break my legs in a second!
"What an impressive specimen. I'm surprised that didn't break your legs yet. But once we hear that crack…" He smiled evilly. Even with the mask on his eyes looked menacing. Panic and many other thoughts were rushing through my head, leaving me not knowing what to do. I could imagine my followers; how ashamed they would be! If I didn't get out of this mess, I wouldn't know how to show my face to them! I–I have to get out of here to save Tao and my beloved Litchi! Since my arms were tied, I couldn't use my Fu-Rin-Ka-Zahn or charge it up. What a sticky situation…
LITCHI P.O.V
I was tired. Relius' mansion was downright huge, and I had tried so many hallways and creaky staircases that I always ended up at the entrance, where I started this mess. I decided to give it one more go before exploding into absolute rage. As I took the last possible pathway, my fear started to spike up at a tremendous rate. Why? After what seemed like hours, I finally heard something. It was Tao's voice! Just by listening, I could tell she was in deep distress. Ignis was torturing her.
"NO! TAO SAID NO MORE! STOP ATTACKING TAO! STOP!" Tao was sobbing loudly, trying to attack Ignis, but the Nox Nyctores wouldn't stop. I followed Tao's cries and ended up coming to the room where the madness was coming from. The door was locked, but since it was so old I knocked it down without breaking a sweat. All thanks to my trusty pole. But the torture didn't stop. One of Ignis's hands turned into a thin drill and she charged at Tao, drilling a little into Tao's stomach, then pulled her hand out. Tao was bleeding. Badly. Tao's weak head quickly turned, her teary eyes meeting mine. "B–B–B–BOOBIE LADY!" Tao yelled out and (even though she was in such bad condition) skyrocketed over to me, hugging me, getting some of her spilled blood and tears on me. "T–Tao was s–so scared!" Not long after she said it, Ignis came over and grabbed us. She teleported us to where Relius was. Ignis then went over to Relius' side, just as he stood up to… "Greet us", let's say. Tao let go of me and turned to Relius, her long metal claws unsheathed. Just then I noticed Bang. What was Relius doing to him? We exchanged worried looks and then looked back at Relius, my expression turning infuriated. Relius made a face as if he was rolling his eyes behind his mask.
"Ignis, grab the cat and put her in a cage. I have to talk with our guest." Ignis only gave a small nod and teleported over to Tao, grabbed her then disappeared. They both reappeared, Tao in an animal's cage (2) next to Bang and Ignis back at Relius' side. Relius gave me a corrupt smile. "Let's play a game. I'll give you a choice." Oh no. The famous "choice game": found in almost every single romance/adventure movie. The protagonist must chose one person or another person/people, but the hero usually ends up saving both of them. But in my case, this is the rare time when I can't save both of them. I'll get killed trying. "The lazy cat or the idiot ninja."
"That's Bang Shishigami to you, evildoer!" Bang retorted. There was fury and worry in his yellow-orange eyes. I loved Bang. There, I said it. But there was also Taokaka. One of the best friends I could've ever known… How I wish I were strong enough to save them both… I fell to my knees, not knowing whom to pick. Tears streamed down my cheeks.
"BOOBIE LADY!" Tao shouted, rattling the bars of the cage desperately, but it was no use. Bang hung his head in defeat, and said,
"My beloved Litchi… take Taokaka with you. I'll handle Relius; don't worry. I promise you I'll come back. You can bet on that, okay? Don't cry, Miss Litchi!" His last words made me look up and into his eyes. I nodded slowly. I wiped my tears, but the same amount of sadness was still there. I looked back at Relius.
"I… I choose Tao…" I confirmed softly. Relius nodded, still smiling his wicked smile.
"Ignis, get the cat out of the cage." Ignis nodded and broke the cage open with ease. Tao ran over to me and hugged me again, sobbing. "Get out of my sight you two, I want to continue my experiment in peace." Bang… His name rang through my head. I backed up. Bang looked at me again and game me a reassuring but pained smile.
"Bang…" I whispered.
"Now, time to put you out of your misery, Bang Shishigami."
"Bang…!"
The huge wooden doors shut with force, and just as they closed, a traumatic scream rose from Bang's throat. I slammed my fist on the door. My tears were flowing nonstop.
"BANG!"
(1 and 2) These both refer to Relius' Astral Finish with those characters.
N/A: Just so all of you viewers know, this is not the end! ;) Why would you all think that Bang would die and not keep her promise to Litchi-sama? There's probably going to be 2 more chapters to this story~ and I'm really satisfied with this story so far! Hope you enjoyed! R&R please, I'd really like some feedback! ^^
~Sel out!
