In the dead of the night: chapter 10
The eight had finally made it to the Burmecian castle. Pheonix and Madeen slammed on the giant doors as it smashed down against the floor. In panic, most of them rushed towards the next dome and had Pheonix blast the door to the ground. When they had crushed to through previous doors, they finally stopped at the center courtyard.
Anna stared in slight shock, Pilica covered her mouth gasping, Horohoro and Chocolove immediately rushed to Ren's side trying to help him relax. Vivi, Pheonix, and Madeen surrounded their summoner, while Manta went over to where Yoh was, Ryu and Anna walking over to where Tamao was lying. Faust stood there looking around at the collapsed palace.
"Sugoi." Yoh's eyes fluttered open.
"Yoh-kun!" Manta smiled wiping away the water from his face…or were they tears? It was hard to tell in the pouring rain.
"M-Manta." Yoh's foggy vision came back into view. "M-Misaki! Tamao! Ren! Are they alright?"
"Yes. I'm just glad you're okay," Manta wiped some more water away. They had to be tears. Anna walked over. Yoh looked up seeing Anna. And then Ryu whom was holding the knocked out Tamao.
"Is she alright?" Yoh asked.
"I think so." Ryu looked at the drooping body. "She seems to be just unconscious though."
"I'm glad." Yoh sighed in relief. "Ren? Misaki?"
"Here. I guess you're awake, huh?" Horohoro said solemnly holding Misaki. Chocolove was helping up a tired and exhausted Ren. The only one out of the four that didn't seem to have gotten unconscious. "Looks like you all got beaten the shit outta ya, huh?"
"Yeah." Yoh sighed being helped up by Manta. "Man, the guy's eidolon was…overwhelming."
"The eidolon defeated you all?" Anna asked.
"Yeah." Yoh said. "Just the eidolon. The guy, his name is Kuja. Kuja injured Ren. I don't know about Misaki since I was pretty much out."
"She…" Ren sighed breathing heavily almost as in gasping for fresh air. "had the Over Soul but was thrown off because it was cancelled by his power."
"So basically three of us got pounded by the summoner guy alone and the Nova Dragon basically knocked me out." Yoh said. "And…" he began to feel light-headed.
"Yoh-kun!" Manta urged him to go on. Yoh gave his carefree smile and nodded.
"I'm fine, Manta." Yoh smiled. "He…He's already destroyed Cleyra and now he's going to go attack Lindbulum or Alexandria. We need to get there." The world began to fog again, a sharp pain ran through his head.
"Not in your condition you aren't," Pilica scolded. "Faust. Can't you do something about this?"
"Perhaps. I was a doctor." Faust glanced at Chocolove. Realizing what he was meaning, Chocolove set Ren against the floor. "Eliza." The Over Soul form of Eliza appeared behind him with the medical tools. "It shouldn't hurt too much." Faust grabbed a few of the wicked sharp tools.
