Enough said, let us venture forth! :D
"Whoa... Hold on! We are auditioning for this!" Lyaki held up a magazine. The first top half of the page explained about the audition. The bottom half was the application to be sent in.
"No. We are going to audition for this!" Kohaku shoved the newspaper ad in front of Lyaki's face.
"Oh no we won't!"
"Oh yeah we will!"
"Who said?!"
"I did!"
"So?"
"So... We are auditioning for the one on this newspaper thing!"
"Why?"
"Cause."
"Cause what?"
"Just cause. Reasons are over-rated. I'm too awesome for over-rated stuff!"
"No, you can't be way awesome for over-rated stuff because I'm awesome-er!"
"Uh uh, I'm the awesomest being ever to be born on this planet!"
"Oh yeah? Well, I'm the awesomest person ever to be born in this solar system!" ( Kaguya-Hime123: Wait... How did we go from auditions to science..? x_x Never mind... Carry on... I: )
"I'm the awesomest human ever to be born in this universe! Ha! Beat that!" The two girls rumbled on the living room floor, arguing over who was better than who. Both had fire burning in their eyes.
"Gosh... You two... How long are you going to go at it..?" Hana sighed.
"Just leave them. They've been going at it for 30 minutes. No sense in stopping them." Akane answered without looking up from her novel. She slowly sipped her black tea. Yuu, her partner, sat on the window, yawning. His face showed no emotion like usual. He eyes looked straight at Akane's head from the back.
"..." She sensed it. Akane's brow twitched a little. He yawned again on purpose, and loudly this time.
"How may I help you, Yuu?"
"Oh, I don't need anything. Carry on with what your doing." His voice was slightly deep, to which Akane sometimes describes as "smexy." When she is not annoyed of course.
"Whoa... Yuu's voice sounds so low..." Hana responded, eyes wide open. Akane face palmed.
"Hana-chan... You've heard Yuu talk... Right?" Luna inquired, while studying her skill book made especially for her weapon.
"Hey, if we're going to audition, why don't we get some costumes first?" The girl with the black and neon colored hair carefully scanned the korean magazine on the couch, flipping page by page. Tsukiko huffed in disappointment, tossed it aside, then picked up another.
"Oh oh! We should! Costumes always makes people seem cuter and more mysterious..." Vienna strummed her guitar, paying special attention to her music that is placed in front of her.
"I agree on the cuter part... But mysterious..?" Kiyomi scratched her head, eating the caramel popcorn in the plastic container, one by one. She layed on her stomach on the hardwood floor.
"You know... Cause people won't recognize us in masks... We'll be the mysterious costumized musicians!"
"Ah... But wait... Why masks?"
"Because..."
"Because...?"
"We're on a mission, remember? The people can't recognize us or else we'll be targeted as soon as we debut. Who wouldn't find it suspicious that a group of students, who are obviously musical geniuses, suddenly appear out of nowhere? We might also be recognized as RSMA students, which is the worst thing that can happen."
"Oh... Point taken." She switched channels lightning fast. The news channel caught her eye. Kiyomi turned up the volume.
"Hey, guys. Look." Everyone glanced at the TV. The TV reporter was currently reporting that there had been a tremendous amount of people dead in a movie theater downtown. Polices and investigators appeared on the screen, explaining what is happening and how much progress they have made so far.
"Wow, mass murder much?"
"No, look. There's a black aura... Right... there..!" Kiyomi paused it with her remote.
"What is that?"
"Not sure."
"Pierrel."
"Pier-what..?"
"Pierrel. Creatures who take the hearts of humans and use it for energy to power Kurai." Akane explained without a moment's hesitation. She had concern written all over her face.
"Why did the youma go to the movie theater?" Kohaku inquired.
"It must of sensed the presence of a weak heart. That's why all the people there died. The Pierrel tried to find the specific person but was unable to. Although the person might've had a weak heart, the signals sent were probably scattered all over the place." Sip!
"So, the audience kind of camouflaged and hid that human?"
"Yes, that is correct."
"Um, maybe we should get going now. The Pierrel might still be there." Hana grabbed her violin and transformed her piano into pistols.
"But what about our costumes..?"
"We'll worry about that later. The Pierrel needs to be taken care of."
"Good idea. Let's go!"
~Ix~
An ash blonde boy stood before the dark mistress, kneeling on his knee.
"Your highness, I have accomplished the task you have given me." The woman who had her back facing him, smiled cruelly in the dark.
"Good, good. Has your partner done the same?" Akise glimpsed at his friend.
"Yo, dude. Did you hear what she has said to you?"
"Yeah. I did." The boy hummed to the music he was listening to.
"Excellent. You two have done well. We have much more to accomplish. Soon, this world will be mine. It will be covered in darkness and chaos." The mistress cackled evilly. The two teens stayed, kneeling on the floor with their heads bowing down.
"Yes, Mistress Kurai."
"Of course." Kurai held up one of their chins, it was the brown-haired. His earth-brown eyes seemed lifeless. His pupils were transparent. She let go of his chin and moved onto Akise. Sure, he had adorable purple eyes, but they were the same. Lifeless.
"I knew the moment I saw you two, you would be the most valuable of my henchmen."
"Especially you. You were pretty interesting when I found you." Kurai wore a creepy smile, an expression that was directly facing the boy next to Akise.
"Kaiyu Detarra..."
~Downtown~
"These are a pain in the neck! Every time one of us kills one, the youmas duplicate!" Tsukiko sliced through a Pierrel, who grunted in frustration as the youma copied itself once again.
"Well, it is our mission. We wouldn't want a bunch of people dying just because they got their hearts taken away, right?" Hana flipped backwards twice, dodging the attacks as best she could. Vienna teleported through the air, killing youmas lightning speed as if there was no tomorrow.
"Nice going Vienna!" Luna cut one of the Pierrel's heads off. The head rolled around the concrete until it dissipated and took a breath. Thank goodness... Her reflexes kicked in when another youma attacked her.
"When will this nightmare end!" Kiyomi shouted over the sounds of her chainsaw.
"Dead Force!" The scythe in Akane's hands glowed a violet black. She swung it through the air and slammed the handle to the ground. A silhouette of a pair of black wings appeared from under her. An orb of power slowly grew as the scythe blade became pure black with sparkling lightning encasing it. As the orb became humongous, it grew transparent to the point where you could see the caster within. Her eyes glowed, as glowing tatooes appeared on both her arms and forehead.
Akane silently whispered, "Scream." Boom! It then exploded. As the smoke cleared, all the youmas that had surrounded her burned to ashes.
"Ooh! I wanna try! Necrotic Bane!" Vienna closed her eyes. A black light circled around her petite form. Devil wings sprouted out from behind her. She raised her dagger up above her head. The similar magic encased the dagger, changing the blade into lightning obsidian. She opened her eyes.
She then said, "Slash!" As the weapon sparkled, Vienna charged head-on without a doubt. She felt as if she was light as a feather, enabling her to move much quicker. Her dagger stabbed straight through a line of youmas from the front to the back. The Pierrels' horrored screams were swallowed by a black hole. Yuu, Akane's partner, dodged and attacked like the expert swordsman he was. He broke out into sweat, although he showed no signs of panic.
"Hell Berserker!" Unlike the other two devil type weapons, the weapon enhanced his power. He disappeared then reappeared from the black light. Yuu now wore an armor of black flames and obsidian. His sword, now was glowing dark violet. The eye at the sword handle pulsed as if it were alive. He clutched his weapon and pointed it straight towards the youmas.
"Chaos Crusher." Yuu said under his breath as he jumped and swung his sword down on the youmas. The Pierrels were sliced in half, then turned to ashes.
"You don't know who you're messing with youmas! My giant spiked hammer versus your pathetic forms? I think the winner's already decided." Kohaku grinned evilly. If looks could kill, the monsters would have been dead already.
"Stand back! Prepared to be blown away! Hydro Bolt!" A bright blue spade shined from underneath her. A sprout of water wrapped itself around the hammer top. Electricity spiraled around the water. With one slam, the hammer made a huge crack on the concrete.
"Crash!" The spikes around the hammer's outer edges formed a water drill. Lightning shot from the sky. The impact caused the group of youmas to explode.
"Wow! This hammer... Awesome! Now I can make bigger explosions!" Kohaku did a happy dance, while hitting the other monsters as she swung her weapon around. A swarm of arrows came crashing down. Lyaki growled as the youma deflected the arrows, breaking them in half in the process.
"Okay! That's it! You're going down, jackass!" A fierce fire burned in her eyes. She tossed her bow in the air.
"Goddess Shield!" A bright yellow diamond flashed beneath her. A golden beam engulfed the bow and arrow. The bow was now red and gold and thin but indestructable. The arrow she held in her hand now had a red arrowhead and feather at the end. The rest of the arrow was golden. Three golden yet transparent shields appeared and rotated around her form. Lyaki directed her arrow towards her target.
"Star Shower!" Time suspended as stars came crashing down. ( Kaguya-Hime123: Not those cutesy stars... :P The actual ones that looks like balls of fire or something... ) The Pierrel summoned a silver shield, dodging many of the balls of fire. One particularly burned it in the leg. It howled in pain.
"Ugh... This Pierrel is pretty strong." Luna charged at the shielded youma. She managed to crack the shield.
"Thought you might of needed some help." She smiled. Lyaki smiled back.
"Ready to combine?" Luna asked. Lyaki looked at her blankly.
"Combine?"
"Yeah, we can all combine our weapon powers now. I read about it in the skill book. Just follow my lead. And if I remember correctly..." She positioned herself as mentioned in the tome. One sword up in the air and the other downwards. What astonished Luna was that her sword handles connected as she pulled them together.
She shouted, "Combo Merge! Weapons combine!" Lyaki's bow doubled the size, adorned with actual reflective diamonds. Luna's dual swords became a matching arrow with huge feather wings and adorned with many jewels. A bright flash glittered beneath the pair. The glowing picture was a clear crystal diamond with angel wings and a halo.
"Priest's Star!" A white beam penetrated the youma's shield as they released the arrow. It continued to consume the Pierrel until the whole body was gone. Grey ashes took its place. Luna and Lyaki high-fived. Meanwhile, Tsukiko and Kiyomi were both physically attacking the opponent at the same time. Nothing seemed to have an effect on this monster. Hana leaped through the air with her scythe. The youma blocked the impact with ease. They breathed hard as they jumped back. Tsukiko stared at her fans.
"Sylvan Field!" A large, bright green clover appeared under Tsukiko. Green vines slowly wrapped themselves around her steel fans, hardening into razors. An unknown symbol carved into her fans. She looked down at it. Huh..? What's the symbol mean? Oh well... I'll just search up the meaning later... Tsukiko positioned her arms in a X-formation.
"Leaf Tornado!" She started spinning. Her feet slowly lifted off the ground as she spun quicker and faster. The enemy tried to stand its ground. The minute it tried to attack, it was swept off its feet. Tsukiko slashed and cut every which way she could within the tornado.
"I command you to stop." The air that spun around her immediately dissipated, lightly setting her back on her two feet. The youma was thrown onto the ground, groaning in pain.
"Awesome! Now it's my turn... Radiance Blaze!" Kiyomi had a similar diamond underneath her just as Lyaki had. The razors on her chains grew sharper and had a blue hue. Two navy silver guns were installed at the sides of her chainsaw handle.
"Hyperion Flash!" She shot the guns at the youma, restraining it as she charged at it with her saw. ( Kaguya-Hime123: I've always wanted to say that one of my characters actually charged at something with his/her chainsaw. XD ) The moment her flaming gold weapon came into contact with the monster, it exploded in a large beam that went up into the sky. Silver crystals fell, losing its luster when it hit the ground.
"Time to return everyone's hearts." Glowing white angel wings appeared on her back. Her form flashed between day and night. A rainbow glow surrounded scythe. The chains transformed into pink ribbons.
"Healing Halo!" The concrete beneath her shimmered. Instead of glowing wings, it was a lotus flower. Her scythe released a large golden ring into the sky. It expanded to the size of the city, then came down and created a bubble.
"Heaven's Sanctum!" A gentle lullaby soothed the rest of the undefeated youmas, returning them to ashes. Little notes fell from the sky, like sparkling snow. As each note landed on a pile of ashes, pink crystal hearts formed. The silver crystals disappeared, floating up into the clouds. Hana signaled the hearts back to their owners. The halo above disappeared as well as the lotus. She fell to the ground, exhausted. The audience around them gasped in awe. The RSMA students froze.
"Oh my, what wonderful music. Who knew instruments could produce such heavenly bliss, especially if it is coming from people as young as you all." The news reporter spoke, quite shocked. "Mind if I ask? Are you students from RSMA?" Team Electra all thought curiously. Instruments? The people thought we were playing our instruments? Before any of the members of the team could answer, two handsome boys stepped in.
"No, they are not. If they were, they would be wearing their school crests as required." The silver-haired teen replied. He had fair skin and also wore a black jacket and pants. When he turned around to look at the team, Kohaku stiffened. Those purple eyes... They look so familiar... And the glasses...She shook her head. No, that can't be possible... Her eyes opened. She was staring at a hand. The boy apparently extended his hand in greeting. He smiled.
"Hello, who might you be?" Kohaku silently gulped. She crossed her arms across her chest and glared.
"Kohaku Takahashi." Getting the message, the boy shoved his hand back in his pocket. He adjusted his glasses.
"Nice to meet you Kohaku-chan. I'm Akito Itzuki." Kohaku faced Akito. Must be a coincidence... The last name is the same... I don't remember him having a brother either... Never mind... Maybe I'm worrying about it too much.
"Tsk. We didn't need your help." She snickered, and walked as calmly as she could to Vienna's side. Akito was a bit annoyed but hid it very well. He tapped his friend's shoulder. The red-head turned around, listening to his I-touch. He had earthy-brown eyes which made him seem very down-to-earth. His skin was amber colored, similar to Lyaki.
"Yo." He waved. Lyaki sighed, she was very annoyed by the fact that he was talking to them with his earbuds on.
"Dude, take off your earbuds." She pointed at his ears. He narrowed his eyes.
"No thanks."
"It's rude to talk to people while listening to music, ya know?"
"I can hear you just fine."
"Seriously, you remind me of someone I know who does that all the time." She facepalmed. Her eyes widened. Wait, he reminds me of someone I know..?
"Um, hello? Earth to girl." He snapped his fingers in front of her face. She stared out into space.
"Oh... Huh?"
"And you said it was rude to talk to people with earbuds on. At least I don't space out when I'm talking to people." He shook his head. Lyaki balled up her fists.
"I don't do that all the time!" She said through clenched teeth. The boy sighed.
"Okay, let's get the introductions over with... I'm Ryu Akitsu."
"I'm Lyaki Detarra." Kaiyu and Lyaki tried to force a smile on their face as hard as they could. As soon as they turned on each other's backs, both cursed under their breath. Akito grinned as he gathered the team together in a circle.
"I'm hungry... I'm sure all of you haven't eaten yet. Why don't we get to know about each other over some lunch? Hm?" Kaiyu joined Akito. Lyaki stared at him for a bit. I'm getting a weird feeling that I shouldn't trust them, particularly him... I wonder why... She hurried to catch up, clearing her "unnecessary" thoughts.
"What you think you know... Isn't always correct... Before you know it... You'll be decieved... Be careful..." Team Electra turned their heads when they heard the voice. All they saw was a black crow, perched on a bench. It cawed, then flew away.
"Hey, did any of you hear a voice?"
"Yeah."
"I did."
"Was it the...?"
"Possibly."
Akito faced them, "Come on guys. My stomach's growling."
Kaguya-Hime123: Ahh... That was fun to write... :D x3 Well... well... Time to get started on the next chapter! :3 Review if you liked it! ^^ Ja!
