As the dragon flew over the skies with the young spirit upon her back, she thought about the past. The past when all of them were together, when all of them were protecting the spirit world. When they honed their powers and they fought for fun, those were the days. She thought of those lost days and soon the flashbacks started to flow back. One by one they flashed before her, but one flash back stood before her, a flash back that was of a young looking spirited bursting out with powers. The girl was fighting her and the girl succeeded and beat Mizutohi in such a fabulous way. Her power flowed beautifully in a synchronized fashion as they danced through the air gently and powerfully. The voice of the young spirit on her back faded and the dragon started to dream while flying.
Flashback
"Mizutohi you ready to go down."
Screamed the girl from afar, as they stood in a wide open grass field. Both of them laughed and so did the others watching them. There stood Kohaku, Kaze, Hana, Kokatsuna, Chirashi, and Okami smiling and whispering to each other. Rapisu had challenged Mizutohi to a fight because they needed to keep their strength up and it was training for both of them. They needed to be able to fight anyone and Rapisu was the one to fight for she held the power of all the gods. The one and only spirit ever who could control all the elements. By the creators she was given this gift or power. No one know why she came into existence necessarily and neither did all the others. But their main purpose were the protectors of the spirit, human world, and eternity. They were the guardians, they were the holders, they were the controllers of everything. All eight of them were a part of the lost ones. For the winds created from the ashes of the earth, the seas of the oceans, roots of the trees, and from the skies. They were a part of the winds, the winds of the lost.
Kohaku and Hana announced the rules at the same time like they always did. Both a dragon and a fairy stood side by side in the swaying grass. For both of them secretly loved one another, young love as one called it. Then both of them held their hands up in the air and pulled them down yelling go. The fight was to begin on order. So both Rapisu and Mizutohi took their stances and their eyes stared at each other violently. Concentrating both of them summoned their powers from their hearts, from the one place where they trusted. Not knowing what Rapisu would summon Mizutohi summoned burning flames to her hands. Her hands held fire that curled beautifully around her wrist and petite hands. She smiled weakly knowing that she would have to fight hard for nothing came easy when facing an opponent like her.
Rapisu from the other side of the field moved her mouth silently, calling upon the roots of the earth. The grasses around her grew and the roots of trees beside her entangled her body, encasing her with power. The roots and grasses would obey her for she was the controller. For moments no one could see Rapisu, the roots and grasses blocking her from view. Then suddenly two emerald eyes peered through the grasses and a solid brown figure rose. Brown hair flowed down her waist and flowers were threaded through it. Her body was now covered in a variety of flowers, roots, and grasses. Kohaku watched as Rapisu made her way over to Mizutohi. Kohaku had always been amazed by Rapisu. He never ceased to forget how powerful he was. He seemed to look at her for long periods of time, admiring her beauty while using her different powers. Hana was cautious about who he looked at and what he did. The fairy wanted the dragon boy all to herself.
Rapisu looked across the field at Kohaku and both of their eyes locked. She smiled softly and so did he. Hana suddenly seeing this gracefully and forcefully summoned the grasses around her to grab Kohaku's face. Grapping his skin ,the grasses turned his face to face Hana's. Rapisu watched in disappoint as well in anger at what Hana was doing. Hana suddenly had her short green hair flow down her back and her dress become short. Her shoulder laced dressed now became a sharp v- cutter one that cut down superiorly low. Kohaku's eyes move down and up watching Hana's hair and body. He seemed to be dazed in this inappropriate act. Mizutohi watch in disbelief as Hana, once again, broke Rapisu's calm moments. The others watched in disbelief as well and wind the slowly picked up catching everyone's hair. Kokatsuna and Chirashi shook their heads and rolled their eyes, they knew how annoying this could be.
Hana was now in a short laced, v-cut dress which slightly was below her hips. Her hair flowed down her back and against her skin and flowers were laced in it as well. Her eyes were shown in appearance in a beautiful emerald color and her eyes lashes gently hide some secrets as well.. Kohaku stared at Hana in curiosity. He stared at the beautiful creature before him as he was laced in the grass. The grass receded but the wind picked put. Hana placed her hands upon Kohaku's face as they tickled his skin. He just stood there watching Hana do all the moving. She closed her eyes and brought her body close to his. Their lips were soon embraced in a fashion of strokes. Kohaku was laced himself in a passion of romance. They continuously broke apart and touched again, and they tugged at each other's shirts trying to get more out of each lips. Kohaku gripped Hana's face and Hana gripped his. Both their eyes remained closed and Hana's dress was soon becoming shorter and shorter. Kohaku moved his hands down Hana's waist and picked her up, moving her through the air. They laughed and giggled.
Rapisu soon began to have salty tears flow down her skin. Mizutohi flames grew big at the anger she had toward Hana. Hana knew how much this bothered Rapisu. Rapisu slowly shut her eyes and her body fell still, not moving a bit. She focused on her anger and transformed it into something greater. The anger within her burned as great as a burning forest, it wouldn't calm till cooled out. Mizutohi looked at the sky and it soon became black.
"Oh No..." She whispered. The clouds rolled in and sun dissipated behind the white puffs soon becoming gray. The tackled the sky with great power and velocity. Rapisu pondered her thoughts and feelings trying to solve them but she couldn't. The trees soon stopped blowing and the birds stopped chirping. The others watched along with Mizutohi and knew what was going on. Hana and Kohaku were now on the ground still locked in an embrace, but Kohaku broke away, looking at the cloud covered sky.
"Oh my god. She is casting the winds."
He got up and Hana yelled at him to get back down but he pushed her away. Rapisu slowly started to glow a dark purple and her skin started to peel away. It revealed an illuminated being in the middle of the grass field. The winds circulated around her and her hair spun in the motion. She was soon stripped of half her skin and she let out a vociferate of a roar. Kohaku sprinted across the field and jumped into the air. He turned to water droplets and they formed a dragon. Solidifying themselves together his form was complete. An emerald and white dragon tackled the winds and the purple being hesitated. She looked up to see the dragon before her. He confined the wind into his hand and looked Rapisu in the eye.
"Please stop." She took a breath and shook her head, nodding she released herself. Kohaku hugged the poor girl in front of him as she collapsed from the receding and draining power. The clouds soon cleared and Hana looked in disbelief. Her dragon boy was holding Rapisu like he enjoyed it. He stroked her hair and whispered into her ear. Mizutohi sighed and thank the gods Kohaku cared for her. Hana's facial expression changed and she screamed.
"Jerk! Fine choose her over me. What do I care!"
Hana stormed over the grass field away from all of them. Her dress became long again and her hair became short. The hair strips started turning red because of Hana's anger. but Kohaku didn't care. He just want Rapisu to be ok.
Mizutohi watched as both of them sat in the field crying and talking. She had so many questions and Rapisu held so many questions. For Rapisu held her real name close to her. The brown hair girl strong willed and courageous had her up and downsides. But she stilled contained and ancient power no one else had.
Mizutohi heard the young spirits voice calling her name.
"Hello, are you dazed out? You not answering me, Mizutohi. I'm trying to tell you where to go but you're not listening. Earth to the deaf dragon." Lin called from the back of the blue and red dragon.
" I'm sorry young one, I was dazed out. Forgive me." Both of them continued to talk and Mizutohi got back on course. They were going to go get Chihiro, or at least she was. They needed her in this bad time. A bad time was arising and she was needed. It would also be good to see Kohaku once again for they had not seen each other in 1,000 years. They flew on getting closer and closer to Zeniba's house.
