Whoo, I'm still on schedule! This section was longer than expected for me so it might be another 2 or 3 chapters.
Edit: I screwed up some formatting stuff the first time, fixed it though.
Upon hearing a grunt the two tensed, fearing the worst. When Rinji didn't feel incredible pain, nor a sense of being dead he cracked open an eye, just in time to watch the figure collapse in on itself, leaving a small red orb.
Rinji tilted his head to the side and studied it, it looked like it was on fire and was floating.
"Il attaquait deux infants? Dégoutant." (He was attacking two kids? Disgusting.) Said a small boy with bright red hair holding a spear in front of them.
What? Rinji's mind questioned, but he was still recovering from the trauma of almost dying so his mouth refused to cooperate.
"Eh, Lance, le veux-tu?" (Lance, do you want it?) The boy continued, addressing his spear.
Rinji watched with wide eyes as the spear was enveloped in white light before turning into a man at least a foot and a half taller the his red-haired partner.
"Bon travail." (Good job.) He commented before daintily grabbing the orb and swallowing it.
The red head finally turned his attention to the twins, "Est-ce-que vous êtes- I mean, are you guys okay?" He asked, crouching down in front of them.
Rinji nodded, "Y-yeah, I'm okay."
The red head looked into his eyes before nodding curtly, he then gently pried Riko from her brother's side. When she whimpered he said softly, "It's okay, I'm Bomb, I won't hurt you."
Riko carefully uncurled herself and found herself looking into dark red eyes, but at the same time she felt distant, as though she were apart from her body.
Bomb's eyes narrowed when saw her blank gaze, "Choc." (Shock) he murmurs to himself.
"Lance." He said with an accent Rinji couldn't immediately place and looked over his shoulder for his partner who took the liberty of setting himself up against the wall while his partner examined the children.
"Quoi?" (What?) He asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Chercher les autres, s'il te plaît." (Get the others, please.)
"D'accord." (Fine) He turned and disappeared into the darkness of the alley.
"What are your names?" Bomb asked, seemly determined to keep the children's minds off recent events.
"I'm Rinji and she's Riko, my twin sister."
"Twins?" He laughed, "That explains why you two look almost identical."
Before Bomb has a chance to ask another question Rinji asks one of his own, "What language were you two speaking in?"
"French." He said before he turned to gaze into the darkness of the alley, "There you are, what kept you?"
Rinji squinted into the darkness but was only able to make out a large blob. It seemed to notice his plight because someone said, "It's too dark, let's get over that wall where everyone can see."
Before he understood what was going on someone had picked him up with one arm and did a jumping, one handed cartwheel over the wall before placing him on the ground.
With the appropriate lighting Rinji noted the light brown eyes and black hair of the male before he moved back. Leaving Rinji to barely catch the lettering WOLF on his white cap.
The man turned to stand beside his friends and Rinji moved to put a comforting arm around Riko, "Who are you?"
The black haired man laughed and glanced at his friends, four of them, "Haven't given that team name much thought recently have we?"
"Still think we should be the Spicy Serotonin." Grumbled a curvy female, the only girl against the wall.
"Hell no, makes us sound like drug dealers." A blond said, despite being a few inches shorter that the girl.
The raven haired man sighed, "Fine, we're sticking with the old one." He looked at the twins and smiled, "We're the Killer Weapons."
The silence stretched for a full awkward minute before Rinji said, "Okaay, what do you do?"
The blond grinned and struck a kung fu pose, "We go around killing bad guys and saving people!"
"Kishin eggs." Lance added. He gazed at them oddly for a couple moments before nudging the raven haired man beside him, "Wolf, I think they might be weapons."
Wolf's eyebrows raised in interest, "Been a while since we've stumbled across weapons." He stepped forwards a bit so the twins were within reach, "I'm just going to see if you have weapon forms."
"W-weapon forms? LIke him?" Rinji motions to Lance in surprise.
"Yeah, like Lance, like all of us actually."
"All of you can turn into weapons?" To say Rinji was shocked was an understatement. His mind was blown, he hadn't just met one person who could magically turn into a spear, there were others!
"Yeah, um, can I have you sister for a second?" He held out his hand.
Rinji reluctantly handed her over. Wolf carefully adjusted his soul wavelength to match hers and sent a short blast through.
Riko's eyes widened slightly when she felt an odd sensation go through her. The blur of colours confused her so she shut her eyes until the feeling passed. When she opened them again her view of the street was greatly reduced to a window and when she turned to look behind her she only saw darkness.
She felt her breath hitch before quickening as the darkness shifted, so nice to finally see you, darling. Her eyes widened she covered her mouth with a sob, no.
Everyone cheered when Wolf stood with a short sword in his hand. He smiled and tested the weight before passing it to the other members. While the others passed her around he turned back to Rinji who stared at him with wide eyes, "Does, does that mean?"
"Probably." Rinji grins and allows Wolf to place a head on his head and do the same to him.
It was an odd sensation, it wasn't painful but it certainly wasn't one he had ever felt before. It kinda felt like he was suddenly turned into a piece of play dough and quickly formed into a bow and arrows.
Nice, Rinji heard Wolf's voice in his head. He glanced around, there was what looked like a television screen depicting the street he just stood on. Where am I? He questioned and turned in a full circle, noting the darkness around him, however this darkness seemed comforting instead of confining.
Wolf smiled and took aim at a crack on a building across the street. When the arrow struck dead center he passed it to his friends.
He briefly noted Ripper and Gunner running around and shrieking like maniacs, Gunner was chasing the blond who bounced around with the sword in hand, occasionally sending teasing looks over his shoulder.
"YO TE MATARIA!" (I'm going to kill you!) Gunner shouted trying in vain to catch Ripper.
Wolf glanced over at Bomb and Lance to see them talking in quiet, rapid french.
When he returned his gaze to his two paychos, yeah paychos, more intense than psychos, he sighed and let his forehead fall onto his free palm. Bomb glanced at the two and silently passed the bow and arrows to Wolf again. With a determined look Wolf took aim again and let the arrow fly.
Ripper skidded to a stop when the arrow thudded into the building beside him, "Hey! You could have killed me!" He shouted just before Gunner bumped into him, catching the sword when it flew out of his hand. Ripper grumbled and crossed his arms in annoyance, not fair, he thought to himself.
Gunner grinned and swiped at imaginary opponents, "Mi nombre es Inigo Montoya. Mataste a mi padre, prepárate para morir." (My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father, prepare to die.)This'll be awesome, having another girl in the group! Especially ever since.. She slowed in her imaginary battle before dropping the sword and covering her ears, LALALA NOT THINKING ABOUT HER!
The others gazes shot to her as the sword hit the floor. In an instant Ripper was at her side, "Okay you okay?"
Her hands dropped to her sides and she grinned, "Fine."
Ripper's brow furrowed in concern, "Were you thinking about.."
"NO!" She shouted defensively, "Just, give me a moment to myself." She bent over to pick up the sword and passed it to Ripper before quickly walking into the shadows of an alley.
Ripper stared after her until Wolf's voice broke through his trance, "Rip, get over here."
He sighed before smiling to himself and walking over and passing Riko to Wolf who had already pulled Rinji from his Weapon form.
Wolf sent another short blast of wavelength through but frowned when she didn't change back. He thought nothing more of it and readjusted his wavelength before trying again.
Aww, looks like I have to go sweetie, don't worry, I'll see you again. Riko swallowed nervously as the darkness retreated and she was pulled back outside. She stared at the group of 6 surrounding her and smiled faintly, it was over, for now.
Yeah.. I got nothing, leave a review? :D
EDIT: Forgot to mention, if you didn't notice Bomb and Lance can speak in French, Gunner can speak in Spanish, neither of which are my native languages. If I screw up in those languages please point it out and I will fix it. Thanks!
