Part two

"Shining light in darkness, Pokemon Snivy!"

When the light disappeared a new girl was present. A girl dressed in a leaf green and sunlight yellow garment, the long cape blew back slightly with the cold air. Her presence had certainly made an impact on the beast as it stood its ground, growling at her wildly, as if trying to intimidate her to run away. It appeared frozen but from the way it bore its sharp and powerful claws which dug into the hard concrete, and the soft sway of its scaly tail and the way it bent its hind legs, it was readying to pounce. However, as much as it tried to intimidate its new foe, she did not move. She only moved to ready herself, her back was slightly bent as she held the string of her bow loosely, her head facing directly toward the beast. She did not however have an arrow loaded, in fact there was not a single arrow in sight. But she remained confident in her stance and waited. The beast let out a long lasting growl, more irritable than the last. And with quick movement its hind paws dug deep into the ground as it pushed off the ground powerfully and surged at her, bearing its large claws. Waiting for the right moment she also pushed against the ground and holding her bow lengthways she lunged toward it catching it in its stomach and pushed it back with great force. The beast made a yelping noise as it was hurled a great distance away from her and hit the ground with a great impact, sliding also as he landed. It tried to recover as fast as it could and quickly tried to regains its stance. She raised her hand, a gust of wind and leaves conjured around it and formed a small ball in her palm, she brought it down and pushed it forward. The ball aimed straight for the beast and upon contact erupted into a fierce leaf tornado staggering its moving and prohibiting it to regain its stance, The tornado lasted until, she pulled back the strings of her bow and a barrage of light beams which with high accuracy went straight for its paws, wrapping its fore legs and back legs together with strong thick vines. Decorating the vines were varying sizes of leaves which were the same design as her brooch. It struggled against its restraints as vines wrapped around its paws which had emerged from the ground and kept it pulled to the ground and groaned loudly, biting at the vines and thrashing around wildly. She stood where she started and raised her bow once again, holding it straight and began to pull back the string. Immense amounts of light gathered around her hand as she pulled it back, it swirled around it and grew larger with the larger amount of stress on the bow. The light next began to form itself into a large arrow of light which shined a powerfully bright light.

She aimed at her captive target and with a deep breath shouted "Solar beam!" releasing the shot, the energy gathered at the tip of the arrow and huge beam of light shot out at high speed headed straight for the captive beast. Upon its impact the shot burst into a huge column of light which generated a giant almost blinding flash. When the flash disappeared so had the beast. All that was left behind was a small gem, which appeared green in colour. It glowed slightly and hovered a little of the ground. She lowered her bow, and took a large breath of relief and calmly walked over to the gem. When she picked it up it lost its glow and fell onto her palm.

Owen who was still watching by this point, could barely believe what he was seeing, or what was even going on. His class mate or whoever she was just casually walking up to the remains of the beast that had threatened to kill him, and now was collecting the small gem, He watched as the small snake like creature became visible again and took hold of the gem, it shone brightly again at its touch and it disappeared into its chest. It jumped up with some sort of victory pose and into Hana's arms. With a small embrace of the small creature, her current garment began to glow and the same light ran over her body leaving underneath the clothes she had previously been wearing .Appearing again in her green coat and college uniform, her hair also turned back its normal blonde colour and fell down onto her back. He could barely move. This was too overwhelming for him, but he had to know what was going on and why. So with a bit of strength he stood up. His knees felt weak from sitting on them too long so with a hand rested on the boxes near him he called out to her. "Hana!?" He called with uncertainty as he wasn't even sure it was her anymore. She didn't seem to notice him at first. And she started to walk down the alleyway which he should have been through already. He called again louder. "HANA!" She jumped suddenly and saw him faintly in the dark. Their distance from each other had increased greatly since she arrived. Her hand was raised to her face, from what he could make out she looked worried and a bit nervous. He approached her. He regained his strength and walked slowly towards her, almost like you would to a stray animal, in case not to startle it and it runs away. "Hana is that you, 'cause I'm really freaked out right now. Please just answer me." He was panicking and trying to ease how scared he was. He hoped that it really was her, he wished it was so he wouldn't embarrass himself to some stranger. She did not move however, she just appeared to look startled and hesitant to run away. "P-please just talk to me." He said his voice trembling a little. "Owen… I. "She spoke softly. She confirmed to herself that she knew him but held her response for a bit longer, knowing that he should not have saw what he did and that confirming anything would change their relationship. But looking over his condition, how fragile and lost he looked she continued "It is me, Owen, Hana" He smiled reassuringly, the corners of his eyes were building up with tears, she held out her hand and smiled kindly at him. "Come on, I'll take you somewhere safe, okay?" His knees fell weak and he fell to ground onto his knees before he could reach out to her, he held his hands at his face and he cried. He wasn't loud but he let out the occasional whimper and left her standing. She dropped her smile and stood there Watching him and not knowing what to do, she could have ran while he had not known who she was, and now nothing could fix this situation. In the end she did what she could. Awkwardly bending down to his level she held out her hand again. "Please. Let me help you. I can get you home safely if you want." He gave no response again. But he looked up to her. She managed to smile again when she looked at him. He wiped his eyes on his jacket with his spare hand. He took her hand. And quietly spoke. "Could you?" She nodded and held his hand firmly, pulling him up as she stood.

"Where do you live?" She asked. Owen pulled his hand away from hers, looking almost embarrassed. "er, not too far from here actually" With her now free hand she held both behind her back. "Ok, lead the way." She looked almost immediately after speaking and then ran back a little into the alleyway. She noticed that she was missing her bag. Looking back she spoke "Sorry just. Hold on a minute, I'll be right back." However she did not go very far, her bag was in fact a lot closer to them than she remembered. She picked it up, confused of how it moved. She looked up toward the building surrounding them, when she did a figure was looking back at her. Perched on the roof on the left building, it made a sort of salute motion and then disappeared. She sighed with a smile and laughed to herself, shaking her head a little. "Hana, is something wrong?" Owen called out from behind her. He made her jump again, turning quickly she jogged back to Owen, who was still waiting for her, and called back. "No its fine, just nearly forgot this" She stopped in front of him and held up her bag. "So, er should we get going?" She asked. He nodded and began to walk out of the alley finally. Hana held her bag to her front and followed him, staying a small distance behind him.

The Alleyway led to a street in the old town, and the street were considerably dimmer and darker than those of the city. Their distance had not changed much whilst they started the trip. They stayed distant and quiet with each other, making it a very awkward situation. It wasn't until they found themselves near an end of a street that Hana had only found herself at a few times, It was a fairly peaceful neighbourhood on the outskirts of the old town and barely had any trouble, and if it did they usually came from different parts of the town. Owen had stopped walking, opposite him was a average sized house, with a well grown garden and welcoming ornaments outside the door. He was the first to speak. "This is my house." He turned, "so er, you know. Thanks." He held out his hand. The mood was stiff and it took a while before Hana met hands with him and gave firm shake, before pulling it back quickly.

"No problem, I suppose" She forced a smile, and began turning away to leave him as he was safe now. "I'll see you tomorrow" She heard him as he walked towards his home. She did not reply but cringed, the fact she would have to act as if this never happened tomorrow had only occurred properly now. She did not take into accounts that she might have to tell him to keep what he saw a complete secret. She sighed heavily, and she nervously tapped her fingers at the hands of her bag.

Walking back the way she came she had arrived back at the alley she had saved Owen in. She checked the time, it had just turned 7:30pm. She still had time to stay out, but at this she would rather go home. It was then when a familiar figure had shown up again, this time it was leaning against the wall with arms behind his head. Its head turned towards her. "Don't worry about staying out anymore, I took care of it" It was a male voice, and she had heard it before. In fact she knew him quite well. He kicked the wall and stood up straight. Walking into sight. He was about the same height as her and had light brown hair tied back, his clothes consisted of a brown sleeveless shirt, with a small collar, the shoulders of the shirt had dark pink rings, the same colour decorated the shirt with linings and a belt around his waist. His arms and shins were covered with metal covering, and in his hair a strange looking clip like adornment sat.

"So you becoming brave now and showing yourself?" He said mockingly, "I mean it's not like you can't hide yourself is it? Or you know LEAD it away?"

She scowled at him, "For god's sake, leave me alone." She pushed forward hitting his shoulder with her own.

"So how are you gonna explain this tomorrow?" He turned as he spoke, "what if word gets out about this because he tells his—"

"Shut the hell up, seriously" She had stopped walking and had turned to face him now, "I thought he had run ok? That's it. Just leave me be." She turned away from him again. "I can deal with it on my own." She walked off with a fast pace, as she walked she heard him shouting towards her,

"H-hey wait! Come on I wasn't- er, I didn't mean for it to be aggressive or anything." He had grabbed her attention, she stopped to turn once again. When she did he jogged a little towards her so there was littler distance between them. "I'm sorry ok, I'm just a little concerned you haven't thought this through enough" He said placing a hand on his hip.

She sighed and shook her head. "Didn't you hear me before? I said I can deal with this on my own." She brought herself closer to him, "And I especially don't want you to get involved" He looked heavily confused and backed off a little.

"Me? What have I ever done but help you?"

She sighed, "You know what never mind, I'm done with this" She turned once again and headed down the alley, back toward the direction of the city. But hearing him for the last time from behind her. "Hey Hana, have a rest for tonight. I'll handle tonight's destruction" Then she heard him leap up back onto the rooftops. Taking a final look back she final made her way home, and thanks to her occasional ally, much earlier than originally planned. At least she would have time to think things over before the next day came.

The house as always, was quiet at this time of night, so it again would be another lonely night, a quick dinner and hopefully try and get some sleep for the next day at college. Looking over at the desk in the room, it was covered in the workings of an already late project notes and sketches scattered around it. It wasn't going to get done tonight, so in the morning another excuse would have to be made, of course not being able to tell them the real story. Next to the project was a wad of paper stapled together named Physics notes. Of course being out so late means no revision and a failed assessment the next day. The window which had acted as an entrance to the room and a sneak exit earlier was closed, and with a final check of the time it read, 11:30pm.

He sighed to himself. And mumbled.

"That's the last time I handle things on my own"
