Chapter Two
I groned awake at feeling light hit my face. 'Come on get up it's another morning' I thought. I got up and just walked out of the cave where my room was. Heh... The amazing thing about alchemy and magic is when they are used correctly you create some amazing things. I decided to check on the group who was usually awake before I was.
I walked out in my normal pajamas: a white t-shirt and Mokona Modaki bottoms....What?....I like tsubassa resivoir chronicles. The first one i saw was Gallvin he was just staring out into the sky. For such a sereious person he can be aloof. He looked at me and just nodded. Same old, Same old. "Hey bro, you're up early" Laurent said from behind him. Normally i would jump but I'm not a morning person and I was to tired. I just patted his head and he smiled then dissapeared and reapeared. "Short distance teleportation", I asked. "Hey that's how the two of us learned." Gallvin shrugged. "Hit the deck!" Jacob called. Gallvin dropped but my senses are a little off, so i get hit with 4 gallons of freezing cold water. I shivered. "Jacob!" I yelled through my chatering teeth. "Sorry" He called from the pool where he ususally practiced. I freehanded magic and created a gale which knocked Jacob into the pool. Jacob surfaced from the water shivering. "I guess that I deserved that." I rolled my eyes and free handed magic again creating a hot gale drying me off. I steped in my room Gallvin following me. I could see he was trying to keep a straight face. "Oh, shut up." I said.
I got in my room and flicked on my stereo, Evanescence's song ' All I'm Living For' blared through the room and Gallvin smiled. Evanescence is a pretty old band but we've been listening to it since we were little. "Hey, have you seen my Lacrimosa shirt." I asked. "Cinos has it." He replied listening to the song. "Dammit!" I groaned. I walked out to see Cinos half asleep on a rock. "Yo? Why do you have my Lacrimosa t-shirt." "My bad". He said drowsily. "It's on my bed" I walked in picked up my shirt and left. "What's the weather today",I asked as walked back into my room. "Warm",Gallvin said simply. The song changed to 'Going Under' by Evanescence. "How's the town?", I asked. "Which one?" he said. "The Slums.", I said. "Nothin to report but there is a lot of movement."He replied. "Well its still worth checking out" I said. " Get ready and we'll just go down there." He nodded and we both went to get dressed.
The two of us appeared in the slums and saw a big crowd had gathered. We jumped up to the top of a building. We looked down at the crowd to see people were panicking. We saw two figures, black and yellow, standing at the top of the crowd. "Is that..." I said squinting at the crowd. "The Axem...Aparently Ammarrijo and Niger." Gallvin said. "Somthing's not right." I said. "Blend in with the crowd" Gallvin nodded and We both therw over our hoods and steped into the crowd.
"We know that someone attacked Verde" Niger said. "So who was it." No one spoke "ANSWER ME" Niger Roared. No one even tried to speak. "Fine then. Ammarijo!" He said. Ammarijo nodded and took a man from the crowd. I heard two kids scream "DAD". I could hear a growl ripp from my throat. I looked over at Gallvin and he was already murmuring, casting a spell. I felt a rush of magic flow through and Gallvin nodded. Ammarijo bellowed "Since you won't tell us we'll kill everyone here one by one untill we get an answer. So who attacked Verde" The crowd was deadly silent except for the two kids crying. "Fine then." Ammarijo said. He took his blade and swung down on the man's neck.
The blade passed right throught him
The man blinked. Niger and Ammarijo were dumbfounded. I Heard a sigh of relief come from was like the man was a ghost. "That's impossible" Ammarijo said. He treid a few more strikes an still nothing happened. Niger pulled outa gun and took a shot at the man and it was still useless. "Well apparently this man can't be killed at the moment so... Ammarijo behead the crowd." The crowd gasped, Gallvin looked concerned. "It's time to intervene" I said and he nodded. Ammarijjo pulled beck his ax to swing. Then right when he tried to, I grabbed the ax near the blade. Ammarijjo looked back surprized. Niger said " Well arent you gonna..." He stopped when he saw me. "How did you.." He starterted but couldn't finish. Gallvin instantly had his staff at Niger's throat. "Think before you act.", Gallvin said with menace. "Get out of here now!" I yelled to the crowd. They began to run. "I don't think so",Niger yelled and pointed his gun twards the crowd. Gallvin kicked the gun out of his hand. I snapped thew blade off Ammarijo's Ax. I then kicked him in the stomach then threw him tward Niger. They make contact and crashed into a building. "I suggest you get the hell out of here", I said with an edge. "This ain't over not by a long shot". Niger snapped pissed off. He and his accomplice were instantly teleported from the spot.
We decided to look and make sure everyone was safe. We came across a little boy sitting in an alley crying. I walked up to him. "What's wrong kid" I asked it the kindest voice I could muster. "They took them." The boy managed between his sobbs. "They took who" I asked worried. "My parents... A man in red... and a woman in pink... they came and rounded up people... And they took my mom and dad with them." I looked at Gallvin. He had the same look I did. The fiasco earlier.
Had been a diversion
