"We have to get inside. Now!" Fai yelled, eyes turning into golden slits.
Once in the doors, Kamui turned to Kurogane, eyes full of question. Kurogane simply pointed up to the ceiling.
"He's there."
Suddenly, the doors slammed shut, casting the group into darkness. They then heard a bolt being slid across it, barring it from reuse.
"Shit. You think they would've thought to put at least one window." The ninja growled
"Nowhere else to go but forward, I guess."
"Who said that?"
"Me!"
"Who's me?" he asked. Someone sighed. Pattering footsteps could be heard, then a body hitting a wall.
"Ouch." Kamui muttered, rubbing his nose.
"What are you doing, brother?" Subaru asked, sensing him leave his side. The group heard a voice muttering something about light switches.
"Never mind that, guys. I saw stairs over this way earlier!" Syaoron's voice said suddenly. He walked off, the group following. Or trying to at least.
$*#&%##*&()%^$!&)!^&$&^^%#$&*$#*(##^%%!$&(*$#%#&^*&$
On the first floor, the group was greeted again by light. Lucky for them, the room they were in held weapons. They were all mounted proudly on the walls, like trophies from past battles. They appeared to be antique, not to be touched. Rushing up to them, Fai began yanking them off their mantels.
"Free stuff!" he joked, as he handed out the weapons. He glanced at Kurogane and Syaoran.
"Do you have your swords?" Kurogane nodded, and Syaoran shook his head. Fai looked confused. The boy then told him what the price had been to get Fai's magic back.
The room grew a little bit quieter.
"Oh." Fai said softly, looking guilty. Syaoran smiled, saying it was all right, taking a weapon out of Fai's hands. It was a sword, similar to Hien. Fai nodded, and then handed weapons out to Kamui and Subaru, saving one for him. Kamui got a silver sword, Subaru a golden bow. He yanked a dagger off the wall next, and used his magic to shrink it. He then handed it to Mokona. Fai kept a pistol for his own use, though he didn't plan on using it.
Fai quickly brought his weapon up to his shoulder, barrel pointing skywards. Flipping his hair in a comically dramatic way, he locked gazes with the rest of the group.
"Let's go."
AN: I'm sorry it's so short, but this is all I had at the time! I don't have anything else written right now, so I don't think I'll be updating for awhile… *blames school*
Guess what! I ordered a necklace off Amazon, and it came in today! It looks like Fai's staff!!!! :D Random, I know… but I've been waiting almost a week for it, and it FINALLY came today! Almost like MAGIC! *laughs at lame joke*
Ugh, this chapter is only like a page long… and really rushed. *SHAME*
Sorry about the weapon-description-paragraph-thing. I've never been that good at creating scenes like that… ^^;
I'm aware that Kamui and Subaru are from different CLAMP story/manga/anime/whatever… but I'm not 100 percent sure what weapons they have, if they even have one… (I'm pretty sure Kamui has a sword thingy… and I just made one up for Subaru) Anyway, if you know what they have, feel free to correct me through a reply or whatever! :D
I don't know about the whole philosophy of what happens when a mage turned vampire suddenly gets his magic back, but, even though Fai has both eyes back (duh lol), I've decided to still use the whole vampire shebang. This is a fan fiction, so it's alright, right? ;D
