And the sixth chapter is here. In this chapter Musaki, Takami, and Akashi will meet one of Fenrir's brother, Skoll.
Chapter 6: the sun eating wolf; enter Skoll.
The sun started to shine over the jade palace illuminating everything under it, and awaking a Bengal tiger, and a giant panda who where sleeping on the floor of Akashi's room. The two woke up and stretched to start the day, everything was normal until they noticed a white wolf was missing.
The two got out of the room and looked around for Akashi, but he was not there, so they went downstairs to look for him but he was not there. Takami and Musaki went outside to look for Akashi but he was not there, they were about to give up when they heard some noises on the training hall.
The two entered the hall only to find everyone sitting on the floor and Akashi wearing his normal attire and a long red long sleeves coat with imprinted flames at the edges, a wolfs paw on the back, and his little sister Saori wearing a green vest, and black silk pants.
"Okay Saori, if you want to be the next leader of the Tora family you must dominate your aura" Akashi said activating his white aura.
"Yes brother, I will show you" Saori said activated her white aura, but hers was weak.
Akashi rushed to her little sister and tried to land a punch but she jumped backwards, unaware her brother appeared behind her. Akashi grabbed the back of Saori's shirt and threw her to the ceiling, but she landed on the ceiling with her feet and pushed herself, and tried to deliver a flying kick, but Akashi grabbed her foot and threw her to the wall.
Saori got, up and rushed to Akashi and tried to punch him several times, but her brother evaded the blows and ended it with a blow on Saori's stomach.
"Our, mom was called the tiger of the shadows because she was undetectable for her enemy, she always sneaked from behind and used the shadows to her advantage" Akashi commented crossing her arms while Saori darted to punch him, but he evaded it.
"Now I will show you one of mom's techniques" Akashi said clasping his hands. "SHADOW ART, SHADOW BLENDING"
A dark circle appeared below Akashi, while he disappeared in it. Saori looked around to find his brother until a white arm embraced her neck, and when she turned she saw Akashi.
"How did you do that" Saori asked turning to his brother.
"That's your homework, you must dominate that technique young girl" Akashi Sai kneeling down and patting her head.
"Okay, you will see I will dominate that technique and that I will beat you next time" Saori said hugging his brother.
"She, Is like her brother in many ways" Takami interrupted the two siblings.
"Guy's you are awake" Akashi commented looking to them.
"Yes, and what is this coat that you are wearing" Musaki asked examining the coat.
"Oh this old thing, it was from my father" Akashi said looking his coat.
"Okay, everyone that was a good training for Saori, but we must leave, I got information of where Fenrir is going" Hayate reported appearing from nowhere.
"Yes grand pa, give us some time to pack and we will meet you on the entrance of the palace" Akashi informed Hayate turning and leaving to his room.
-Some minutes later-
Akashi, Takami, and Musaki walked to the entrance of the palace carrying a bag with their clothes for the journey. The three waited for Hayate until he appeared carrying a huge bag.
"Okay, let's go" Hayate ordered opening the doors and jumping to the village.
"Yes sensei" the three responded following him.
The four heroes jumped from one building to another, until they reached to the end of the valley. The four started to run until they reached to a bamboo forest, so they jumped from one bamboo to another to reach their destiny.
-Five hours later-
Then of some time jumping, they found a huge wall made of rock that surrounded the hidden valley, a valley with many secrets, and that only few could find it. The four walked through a bridge until they got to a huge door made out of iron.
"Everyone, the mark of heroes" Hayate said pulling his sleeve and showing the mark to the door, while his students did the same.
The door opened reveling a beautiful village, with happy inhabitants, but they were all unaware of the huge danger they where. The four walked through the village, getting the attention of the villagers.
"Why is everyone looking at us" Musaki asked while looking around.
"They know that something is wrong, the only way to enter here is to be a villager or a hero, and since we aren't villagers, they know that we are heroes" Hayate explained while they got to a building.
"Why are we here sensei" Takami asked looking to the huge building.
"We will pass the night here" Hayate said entering the building while his students followed him.
The four entered the building, and Hayate registered them. The four walked to their room and entered it and they found four beds and a sofa, so Takami and Musaki jumped to their beds while Akashi and Hayate took their luggage and entered the room.
Akashi placed his bag over his bed and opened it and took out his clothes and placed them in the wardrobe.
"Akashi, can you place my clothes on the wardrobe too, I need to go to the bathroom" Hayate asked his grandson while he entered the bathroom.
"*sigh* okay, but I hope I don't find one of your paintings" Akashi said opening hayate's bag, but instead of nasty paints, a white teenage tigress popped from out of the bag with a sock on her head.
"Saori, what are you doing here" Akashi asked taking the sock from her head.
"I wanted to go with you, to learn something from my big brother" Saori said coming out of the bag.
"I know, but this mission is too dangerous, I must send a message to mom" Akashi said but then she looked to her little sister who was about to cry.
"Okay, okay, but when the fight arrive you will stay with our grand pa in a sure place" Akashi informed his little sister hugging her.
"And we will take care of her too" Takami said pointing himself and Musaki.
"Yeah, she will be okay, we will take care of her" Musaki added sitting at the edge of the bed.
"Hey, guys guess what, I just discovered there are hot springs in this hotel, come with us" Hayate interrupted them and then left to the hot springs.
"Wait a second, come back old man" Akashi said running behind Hayate.
"What's his problem" Takami and Musaki asked Saori.
"Let's say that my grand pa is kind of a pervert" Saori answered while she walked to the hot spring and Takami and Musaki followed her.
-The hot springs-
Saori entered the girls hot springs and took off her clothes and entered the pools. She swam until she got to the end of it and sat there enjoying the water. Saori was alone there while the other females where on the other end of the pool or so it was until a black tigress swam to where Saori was.
"Mind some companion" the black tigress said sitting to her side.
"Not at all" Saori said smiling to the black tigress.
"What a beautiful smile" the black tigress said looking to her smile.
"Thanks, yours is beautiful too" Saori replied looking to her. "I'm Saori by the way"
"My name is Layla" Layla said "Saori, do you want to see a trick"
"I will love to" Saori said paying attention while Layla created a little twister in her hand. "Wow, how you do that"
"I have a special ability" Layla said while holding the twister in the tip of her finger.
"You know, I have special abilities too" Saori said evoking her aura for a short time but disappeared. "But I haven't perfect it"
"Don't worry, keep trying and you will succeed" Layla said patting Saori's head.
"STOP IT OLD MAN, DON'T YOU DARE" Akashi SHOUTED FROM THE OTHER ROOM.
"LEAVE ME ALONE AKASHI, I WILL PAINT NO MATTER WHAT" HAYATE SHOUTED.
"OKAY, YOU ASKED FOR IT" Akashi SHOUTED AND THEN A LOUD NOISE CAME FROM THE OTHER SIDE.
"Why are they making to much noise" Layla said while Saori sank on the water to hide her embarrassment.
"They are my brother and my grand father" Saori said, but from out of nowhere Layla hugged her.
"Don't worry, I also have a friend that embarrass me almost all the time" Layla said hugging her.
"You are so kind Miss Layla, but I think we should be leaving" Saori said pushing Layla out of the pool.
"Why you say so" Layla asked when someone entered through one of the walls of the room.
"I ADVICE YOU OLD MAN" Akashi shouted while lifting his fist.
"Ouch, ouch, and ouch" Hayate said with a pump in the head, and then he lifted his head only to find various females naked. "Hi ladies"
"Ahhhhhh" the girls shouted rushing to the exit of the pool.
"Because of that" Saori said taking her clothes.
"I see bye then, it was nice to talk with you" Layla said dressing with a silver vest with green leafs imprinted in it and silk black pants and then leaving.
"Bye, Miss Layla" Saori said waving a good bye. "She is a kind person, and she is very beautiful also" Saori though giggling a little.
-Akashi's room-
Hayate was lying on his bed with three pumps more on his head. Akashi was sitting on the coach with a stress mark on his fore head.
"I can't believe you tried to get on the girls rest room" Akashi shouted lowly.
"Calm down, we now that that was not good, but next time try not to throw him a boulder" Takami said.
While they where arguing, Saori entered the room happy and looked to her brother mad.
"At least she got some fun" Musaki commented lying on his bed.
"Okay, let's go to sleep, I think I must rest something" Akashi said standing taking his shirt and lying on his bed. "Come Saori"
"Okay" Saori said lying beside Akashi.
"I must sleep a little too" Takami said lying on his bed and turning the lights off.
-The next day-
The sun entered through the window of the room, illuminating the faces of our heroes. It was so peaceful, so quit, so beautiful, until. *CRASH*
Takami, Musaki and Saori woke up immediately and said. "Not again"
The three rushed downstairs only to find Hayate on the floor of the lobby, and Akashi cracking his knuckles.
"Can't you guys stop doing that for a second" the three shouted, while Akashi growled and turned to them.
"Sorry, guys if I woke you up" Akashi said walking to Hayate grabbing him from the back of his shirt and pulling him. "Okay, since you are awake we must go and look for the prison of Fenrir's brother"
-Hidden valley museum-
The five warriors of the jade palace where standing in front of a huge full body mirror. Akashi crossed his arms while looking to the prison of one of Fenrir's brothers. The five could feel the dark energy coming from the artifact, but the little Saori was more affected since she wasn't used to this kind of things, so she hide herself behind Akashi.
"Is everything alright Saori?" Takami asked to the little scared tigress.
"I don't feel comfortable while standing in front of that thing" Saori responded.
"Really, then let's go outside" Takami said grabbing her hand. "Akashi we will take care of the outside"
"Okay, we will stay here and guard the mirror" Akashi said sitting beside the mirror.
-Outside of the museum-
Takami and Saori where sitting on the roof of the museum, watching the sunset, and talking.
"So, Mr. Takami, you can control fire and don't get a single burn" Saori said looking to Takami.
"Yep, it was difficult to control at first, but I practiced and dominated it" Takami said looking his paws.
"I will like to be like you, Musaki, or my brother" Saori said looking to the floor.
"And you can be, you just need to train" Takami said smiling to Saori.
"Thanks Mr. Takami" Saori said smiling too.
The two felines turned to the sunset when they heard a huge explosion coming from the hotel they where staying. The two jumped from the roof and rushed to the building only to find a huge whole in it. The two tigers jumped to the whole and founded nothing but a destroyed room and some clothes on the floor.
Takami walked through the room, but suddenly stopped when he stepped over a silver vest with green leafs. Takami lifted it and realized what happened.
"Saori, we must return" Takami jumping to the streets while Saori followed him.
-Meanwhile in the museum-
Akashi, Musaki, and Hayate where fighting Fenrir, that appeared from nowhere.
"It has been a long time, Hayate" Fenrir commented looking to the old wolf. "The years haven't treat you very well"
"I'm not a demon wolf that can live for ever" Hayate said activating his red aura.
"You beat me last time, but you won't this time" Fenrir shouted rushing to Hayate, but before he could touch Hayate, Akashi and Musaki appeared and kicked him in the chest.
"If you want to touch my grand father you should fight us first" Akashi said activating his seven tails mode.
"As you wish" Fenrir replied unsheathing his claws.
Akashi took his katana and Musaki his Sai, and rushed to Fenrir. The two warriors tried to slash Fenrir with their swords, but Fenrir used his claws to protect himself. The three kept fighting while sparks appeared during the fight. Fenrir took an opportunity and pushed the two warriors away, and rushed to them to attack. Fenrir tried to slash them with his claws, but Akashi and Takami used their swords to protect, but it was not enough when Fenrir crossed his arms and slashed the air creating a wave of dark energy that slashed the boys' clothes.
Fenrir walked to them ready to kill them, but before he could slash them a ball of fire came from nowhere and impacted his hand. Fenrir turned around and saw Takami standing there with his fist surrounded with fire. Takami rushed to Fenrir and tried to deliver various blows, but Fenrir blocked them, or so it was when Fenrir felt a pain on his stomach so he jumped backwards and looked down to his stomach and saw it was burned. Fenrir was confused, but Takami didn't gave him any chance to think, because the tiger rushed to Fenrir and delivered a blow on his face, another on the ribs, and roundhouse kick on the left cheek.
Fenrir stood up and rushed to Takami with his arms crossed prepared to slash Takami, but when he slashed Takami transformed into a shadow and disappeared. Fenrir was confused, and when he turned he received a blow on the face, it was Takami, but how did he did that. Fenrir stood again only to receive a punch on the stomach, and kick on his face. Fenrir barely stood up and watched the Bengal tiger standing on front of him, Fenrir stood up with rage and tried to slash Takami, but disappeared like a shadow again. Fenrir looked around but found nothing, but then suddenly Takami appeared over Fenrir and kicked the top of his head. Fenrir stood up and looked something weird below the tiger a shadow that connected him and Saori, who was forming a triangle with he hands.
"It looks you finally discovered" someone said behind Fenrir and delivered a kick on his back.
Fenrir turned and saw Takami behind him. "But how, how could you move so fast"
"He didn't, you just fell on a little trick a called shadow clone technique" Saori said standing up while the clone disappeared.
"That won't be enough to beat me" Fenrir said standing up.
"But this yes, wolf hammer throw" Akashi shouted while Musaki threw him to Fenrir and Akashi punched him on the face.
"It looks you are starting to understand you abilities Saori" Akashi said smiling to his little sister. "But step back now we will take care of this"
The three rushed to Fenrir, but the black wolf stood up and jumped to the ceiling and created a hole on it letting the light of the moon to enter the room. Then Fenrir jumped to the floor and created a wave of dark energy that pushed the boys to a wall. Then Fenrir took the mirror and place it under the light of the moon. The mirror started to shine and then revealed a dark figure in it.
"Brother is it you" the figure asked opening his eyes revealing an orange glow.
"Yes brother, I'm here to free you" Fenrir said walking to a dark alley and then bringing an unconscious tied black tigress in his arms.
"Layla" Takami shouted running to Fenrir, but Fenrir kicked him back.
"Mrs. Layla" Saori followed but couldn't move.
"Here is the offering" Fenrir said placing Layla on the floor while she started to wake up.
"Huh, what's happening" Layla muttered opening her eyes and looking to Fenrir. "What who are you"
"This will be a good offering" the figure said while a huge dark claw appeared from the mirror and tried to grab her.
The huge claw was about to take her, when a white blur appeared from nowhere and stopped it. "Who are you" Layla asked looking to the white wolf with the red markings.
"My name is Akashi, I'm takami's friend" Akashi said using his seven tails to free Layla. "Go take cover we will take care of this"
Layla ran to Saori's side and hide with Hayate while Takami, Musaki and Akashi fought Fenrir. Akashi destroyed the dark claw and then rushed to Fenrir and delivered a kick, while Musaki appeared and delivered an uppercut and Takami finished his with blow in his stomach.
"I'm tired of you, GO TO HELL" Fenrir shouted he disappeared and reappeared behind the three boys and knocked them to the floor.
Fenrir turned to Layla and walked to her, but then Saori stepped in front of him. "Stay away, I won't let you" Saori said extending her arms.
"Get out of my way" Fenrir shouted and lifted his fist and was about to slash her with her claws when a white wolf appeared and stopped him.
"don't you dare to touch my little sister" Akashi ordered; then the red shades below his eyes appeared, the three lines that ran around his arm and ended in a spiral in his palm, and the red oval in his back.
Akashi placed himself in front of Fenrir and made and elbow throw, sending him to a wall. Then Takami and Musaki joined him. Fenrir stood up and rushed to them but them evading him. Fenrir turned around only to find Musaki with two shurikens in his hands, the panda threw the shurikens, but Fenrir evaded them, unaware on of the shurikens transformed into Akashi. Akashi grabbed the other shuriken in mid air and threw it to Fenrir, but the demon wolf noticed it and grabbed the shuriken and stabbed it on the ground.
"He felled on the trap" Akashi said falling to the ground.
"That's all what you have…. "Fenrir mocked, but then noticed Takami wasn't with them.
Fenrir turned to the shuriken on the ground, but it was too late the shuriken transformed into Takami, who delivered an upper cut sending Fenrir to the air, then Akashi ran and kicked Fenrir even higher, then Akashi disappeared and reappeared above Fenrir and kicked him downwards. Takami and Musaki rushed to Fenrir and kicked him upwards, while Akashi felled to their side, and then the three jumped to Fenrir and grabbed his legs and placed their feet on the demon's chest and started to spin.
"Take this Fenrir, TRIPLE FALCON DROP" the three shouted while Fenrir's head hit the floor and they jumped off him.
"That will do" Akashi said panting, but then Fenrir stood up and with a great speed kicked them knocking them.
"I'm tired of waiting brother I will take my offering now" the figure on the mirror said while the dark claw appeared again and tried to take Layla again, but Saori hugged Layla.
"Layla hold on tight" Saori said concentrating her aura while a dark circle appeared below them and the two disappeared in it, while the claw grabbed nothing.
"But where did she go" the figure asked while a hikari shuriken sliced the dark claw.
"We are not defeated yet" Akashi said while Takami and Musaki stood up again.
"I'm totally tired of you" Fenrir said rushing to them but Takami stepped in front of him and created a wave of fire, and when the fire dispersed they weren't there.
Fenrir looked around for the three warriors, unaware Musaki was behind him. The panda stomped the ground creating a surge of underground sound waves that sent Fenrir to the air, where Takami was waiting for him. Takami surrounded his fist with fire and punched Fenrir hard in the face sending him to the ground but before he could impact the ground Akashi appeared below him, and created a bao guang and hit Fenrir's back sending him to the ceiling and hitting it and falling to the floor.
"And this time, stay there" Akashi ordered, and then falling to his knees.
Musaki and Takami walked to Akashi and helped him; they thought everything ended until they heard a feminine scream. The three turned and saw the dark claw crushing Saori.
"You have been interfering in my plans, now you will die" the figure said crushing Saori.
Akashi, Musaki, and Takami tried to help her, but they couldn't move, and when they looked down to their feet, the saw they where trapped by a black goo.
"Now you felled on my trap" Fenrir said while clawing the floor.
"Grah, brother help me" Saori screamed while the claw crushed her.
"Saori, no, stop it take me instead of her" Layla said while the claw dropped Saori and grabbed her.
"Mrs. Layla, please don't do it" Saori muttered trying to stop her but was useless.
"I'm sorry young Saori, but I don't want you to die" Layla said while the claw dragged her to the mirror.
"Layla, no, let her go" Takami shouted but it was useless.
"I'm sorry Takami, but I don't want you to die" Layla said while she disappeared inside of the mirror, and an orange wolf with a red sun painted in his back appeared.
"Ha…ha…ha, Skoll is back baby" Skoll said turning to his injured brother, but changed his attention to Takami, who summoned his demon arm, and a red aura mixed with his fire surrounded him.
"You stupid demon wolf, you took Layla, I'm going to kill you" Takami shouted while burning the goo that was surrounding him.
Takami pounced over Skoll, but he evaded him, so Takami created a wave of fire, but Skoll did something impossible, he slurped the fire with his mouth like if it was food. Skoll grinned and looked to the angry tiger.
"Do you think that's fire, this is fire" Skoll mocked inhaling air through his nose, and exhaling fire through his mouth, but that didn't made any damage to Takami.
"Well, well, what do we have here, a master in pyrokinesis" Skoll said narrowing one eye. "This fight is going to be interesting"
"Skoll, there is no time, we are both weak now, we must run for now" Fenrir ordered his brother who obeyed.
Skoll jumped to where his brother was and took him, and jumped to the hole in the roof. "We will see again pyromaniac" Skoll told Takami laughing manically and disappearing.
Takami stood there and felled to his knees while his demon arm disappeared. "I can't believe she left" Takami whispered, but then he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Takami, I promise you that I will return Layla, no matter what it takes" Akashi said hitting his chest with his fist. "I promise you with my heart"
"I also promise you Takami, I will bring Layla back" Musaki said smiling.
"Thanks guy's, I know I can trust you" Takami said lifting his head looking the sky.
"Akashi, we must be leaving now, Fenrir brought Skoll from his prison, so we must stop them from freeing the last brother to all cost" Hayate said appearing from nowhere.
"Brother I think you must see this" Saori called his brother, while everyone walked to her and saw Layla lying in front of her.
"Layla" Takami said picking her up, while she opened her eyes.
"Who, who are you" Layla asked confused.
"What don't you remember me, I'm Takami" Takami answered but she didn't remember him.
"It's useless, that mirror was created by Oogway to hold evil spirits, and since she isn't evil the mirror just took her memories" Hayate explained them.
"I see, but still I'm happy that you are okay" Takami said crying and hugging her. At first that took Layla by surprise, but then she hugged him.
"What are we going to do now brother" Saori asked Akashi.
"We are going to stop Fenrir, and get Layla's memory" Akashi answered looking her.
"I promise you Takami, I will get her memory back no matter what" Akashi thought.
