Time for Chp. 10!

As they landed on the island, Madoka groaned. "What's wrong?", Ryuuga asked. Madoka pointed to the lair. "It had to be a cave", she said.
Ryuuga grinned and patted her head. She blushed and pulled away. "I am not a little kid", she said, crossing her arms.
Ryuuga raised an eyebrow and walked towards the mouth of the cave.
"You sure act like one", he shouted.
Madoka sighed and followed him.
The cave was similar to the entrance of a temple. Madoka and Ryuuga entered. It was big and it was dark as night in there. Ryuuga lit up a flame and he walked down the path with Madoka following him.
As Ryuuga walked, Madoka wasn't paying attention and she tripped. "Ow", she said as she rubbed her arm. She looked up and gasped. "Ryuuga!", she called out. Ryuuga ran to her and she pointed at what she had been surprised by.
In front of her were stone statues of men. They were all in poses as if they were trying to escape. Ryuuga lifted Madoka to her feet and they looked around. "Just like the legend said", Madoka said softly. She reached out to touch the statue. It felt like rock and was cold.
She frowned. She moved her hand to where the heart would be and she screamed.
Ryuuga came running. "What?", he asked. Madoka stared at the statue. "He is alive", she said. Ryuuga raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?", he asked. She grabbed his hand and she moved t to where the heart would be. Ryuuga gasped. "They are still alive. After all these years", he said. Madoka thought for a moment. She grabbed Ryuuga. "Maybe we can save him with stone", she said.
Ryuuga stayed still. "Maybe", he replied.
Madoka grinned and hugged him. He was taken by surprise and he gladly hugged her back.
Suddenly they heard clapping. They let go and faced Reji.
"Oh, I am sorry for ruining a moment", he said.
Ryuuga moved in front of Madoka. "How did you find us?", he asked. Reji smirked. "Easy. I followed her scent", he said.
Madoka became scared.
Reji sighed. "I don't know they hid it here. I knew you would come and get it", he said. Ryuuga scoffed. "What do you mean?", he asked.
Reji turned to Ryuuga and his eyes sparked. "Well for one, my mother hates uninvited visitors", he said as a rumble started.
Out of the ground, Medusa came out, her snake body slithering behind her.
She smiled evilly and turned to Reji. Immediately, her evil grin turned into a normal happy one as she grabbed Reji and pinched his cheeks.
"My Reji finally has a mate!", she said. Reji groaned and his face.
Madoka blinked and blushed. Medusa stared at Madoka. "And she is a pretty one too", she said, nudging Reji, who pulled away.
Then her eyes wandered to Ryuuga. Her eyes turned red. "And I see he is trying to steal her away from you! Don't worry, I'll get your mate back!", Medusa said as she slithered towards Ryuuga.
"Ryuuga, your eyes", Madoka warned. Ryuuga closed his eyes.
Right when Medusa was about to attack Ryuuga, Madoka pushed him away and she took the blow.
She screamed as she was thrown. She then fell into unconsciousness.
Ryuuga opened his eyes and he growled. His eyes turned into a dark red and he shouted, "No one messes with my girl!".
Medusa gasped as she received fire ball from the red dragon, who was extremely mad.
Reji sighed.
He did the thing that crossed his mind.
"Mom! Your soap operas are on!", he shouted. Medusa stopped and her eyes filled with glee. "I'll take of you in a while, I have to go visit your aunts", she said as she slithered away and disappeared.
Ryuuga sighed as he transformed back.
Reji took the opportunity and striked him. Ryuuga groaned as he tried to get up.
"Guess going all high and mighty cased all of your energy", Reji said as he kicked him.
Madoka woke up and gasped. She got up and tackled Reji.
Ryuuga stayed on the ground, passed out.
Madoka landed on top of Reji. He then kicked her off of him. She gasped for air. He laughed evilly.
He kicked her and she flew to the wall. She fell and Reji caught her.
"Since you are going to die, let me tell you my little secret", he said. Madoka tried to open her eyes. "It was really fun killing your mother", he whispered.
Madoka's eyes widen and she screams.
A pure white light surrounds her and she throws Reji away. She growled and she attacked him.
Reji dodge and pinned her down. "We'll meet again", he said as he disappeared.
Madoka got up and the light disappeared.
She looked around and found Ryuuga. She shook him and he woke up.
"Let's get out of here", she said, her head down. He sighs and he gets up. He lends her his hand and she takes it. They start to walk away when Madoka tripped. Again.
She looked ad gasped. She lifted the object up in happiness. "I found the Melting Stone!", she shouts. As she has it in the air, it starts to glow a blue color.
The light engulfes everything in sight and then men that were statues transformed back into their regular forms. They all turned to Madoka and bowed.
She smiled shyly and she bows in return. All of the men leave after a few minutes.
Madoka jumps up and down. "I'm so happy I helped", she said.
Ryuuga smiles and they leave.
As they were flying towards the castle, Madoka couldn't help but think about what Reji told her. Did he really kill her mom? She sighed and waited until she arrived to the castle with Ryuuga.
'Ryo will have to be ready to answer questions', she thought to herself.
I was actually going to let Ryuuga and Medusa battle but I really wanted to have Reji spell out his secret :)
Bye and REVIEW!
