Chapter 10
The tournament had begun with the first match Shinigami vs. Jaco. Both team face but in the end only one team won …team shinigami. Now was the 2 match Team Ren verses Team Akito.
Akito vs. Ren
"Ha" said akito as he swung his sword at REn.
"Your pathetic ….this is to easy" said Ren as he dodged his attacks and quickly knocked him out.
"That my friend was what we call a waist of time, not even a challenge."
As for the rest of the team they all went in a final blow while ren waited.
"FURY ASSAULT!" they all yelled out. No one saw the winner everything was grey insight until Mikoto blew the dust away to see ……..
The crowd went wild the winner was none other then team akito………wait what this team akito is down ….. the crowd went silent until they saw team ren standing. The crowd went crazy right at that moment.
"Congratulation Team Ren you advance from the tournament." Said the announcer
Now was time for the third match. Just as the gagn went inside they saw Mikoto whisper to the leader of team Ryu …..
"Good Luck …brother….I wish you luck" said Mikoto as she left. The leader just nodded and left.
"Let the match begin!"
Later…..
"Y…You killed him!" Mikoto screamed as she held the body of a dear friend/brother in her arms fighting the verge to cry.
"Li?" Mikoto turned to look at her.
"The younger tao's eyes looked blank and a wispy trail of smoke wrapping around her wrists.
"What the?"
"Li-dono goes into a trance like stae when someone dies around her" Baiken explained
Li's mind P.O.V.
"W..Why am I in the ring?" I look around I was seriously in the center ring.
"Oh wait now I remember now. Someone died. And now I have to experience it.
Rogue was facing me, along with two other guys that looked like siblings and …a human/shark hybrid? Either way , she looked terrifying. Death was in her eyes; I can feel it.
"Say your prayer Jin or shall I say Ryuka" she said. The Battle ended as quick as it began. The Person's Body will not hold much longer. Immense pain traveled throught out. Before the blackness consumed him, I heard him think one thing.
"Mikoto…Sister…I… failed…Gomen…na" as soon as he could say that he was dead. That was When Mikoto ran to try and save him from his death but was to late.
Normal P.O.V.
Li Jolted back a bit to her senses.
He was about to say Gomen nasaii…
"Hey, are you alright?" Asuka asked, "You don't look too good…"
"I'm fine" she lied. The cursed tao not only did she experience the person's death, but feels it too. Although every painful episode, she has kept the hurt to herself; not saying or doing one single word or action that would indicate so.
"No your not you don't have to lie I read your mind…" Mikoto said, "You're hurt .. the pain you let build up inside of you…It Hurts don't say it I heard every word right?"
Li stared at her sadly and nodded.
"Why didn't you say anything" asuka asked
"I…" Li then jolted and fell over to her knees. She started to cough out blood.
"Li!"
The Amber eyed girl then passed out and fell into the pool of blood.
"Li!" Horo cried, picking her up holding her in his arms, "Li say something."
"Give her time" said Baiken, "She'll be alright.
"……"
"How long has she been keeping this from me, Baiken"
"Ever since her first trance"
"But..But why?"
"I think I understand"
"Tell me"
"I can't "
"Don't make me hurt you"
"You can't hurt me I'm already dead"
"……" he could not think of anything else.
During that time Mikoto took Li by placing her ion a room and cleaning all the blood away with a cloth. She then left her to rest, she did not want Li to see anymore deaths like Ryuka, so she ran to a lake where she sat depressed. Unfortunately she let her guard down someone had followed it was Hao and someone else.
"My ...my why are you all alone Mikoto" said a voice out of the shadows.
Mikoto flinched "Whose there"
"Mikoto you don't remember, how could you forget your best friend" he spoke sarcastically.
Mikoto smirked and spoke back.
"How could I forget you Sasuke we've been together ever since we were kids."
"Yes it's me"
What the she's been with this guy the whole time … thought Hao.
"Is everything going according to plans?"
"Yes but she's catching on to us."
Hao froze and thought of the wrong idea.
"Don't worry, I have a plan, she will never expect it."
"…I'm sorry about Ryuka I couldn't do anything to stop her"
Mikoto stayed silent for a moment.
"It's not your fault I will get my revenge for his death and the others."
"I know but I best be off before they get curious"
"Ok until then" before he left Mikoto had hugged him which caused hao to be in anger with jealously.
"Good bye" they both said as he left leaving Mikoto alone.
Back With Li
"Guys!"
They all turned to see Hao riding a smaller version of SOF.
"What is it Hao?"
"Its Mikoto" he said, " She in cahoots with Rogue!"
"What?"
"Liar!" Asuka yelled
"It's true I saw her talking with a person on Rogue's group. She asked, 'Is everything going according to plan"
The Group felt silent
"What should we do?" yoh asked
"I say beat her until she spits out the information" Hao suggested
"You know we can't beat her even if we work as a team she has atleast three spirits remember" said Yoh.
"SO I still say we should"
"No…!" They all turned to see Li, trying to stand."
"You misunderstand her"
"What's to understand?" Hao asked" She was practically going to make out with one of the enemies side boys who wants to kill you."
The gang turned to hao and thought "Make out I thought she like Hao…Omg! She couldn't would she"
"Well not really make out just hug and talk and stuff" Hao said. This caused the gang to sign in relief.
"I'll tell you what I saw in my mind"
"Oh…."
"Anyways I'll tell you"
Meanwhile…..
Mikoto was just sitting near the lake with Legs in the water playing a tone on the flute so relaxing just the she stopped the song she played her flute as it reminded her of the past.
Flashback (oh try listening to Sakura's theme and imagine like as if your watching a video games )
Mikoto was just training with her sensei when she her mother called out to her.
She was smiling her whole family was around they were having the tie of there life.
Her brother was calling out to her and she went to him.
She was learning how to play the flute with her mother then played with her it was so beautiful.
She was then goofing off with her brother as there sensei and mother smiled and had dinner.
Mikoto remembered their smile and hers as they ate. A fond memeory she kept to never forget them.
End of Flash back
Mikoto then stopped playing her flute and looked at the sky. "Such fond memories….I wish I could see them again" a one silent tear fell from her face then left to return home.
Back with Li
"And that's what happened" Li spoke.
"I don't believe" said Hao.
"Don't believe what" came a voice out of no where. This scared horo again they saw it was Mikoto.
"What are you doing here you should be with your boyfriend" Hao said.
"Boyfriend?"
"Yeah the one on your sisters team what's his name again Sa…sasuke yeah him"
"Sasuke my boyfriend ? Your kidding right …..I would never go out with him"
"No I'm not I saw you hugging him in the forest"
"Yeah but that's cause he's my best friend he has a total crush on sa-I mean but why spy on me …huh!"
"….."
"Well you got the wrong idea dude"
"Don't dude me"
"I just did….."
"……" Hao had given her a glare which was unaffected to her but really did hurt but she didn't show it.
"Whatever GOODNIGHT!" everyone was just silent and never spoke. Li only seemed to believe that Sasuke was not her boyfriend, but wanted to laugh about hao actually being jealous.
Just as the day had ended a note had appeared near Li. Li was alone that time in her room thinking of thing.
"A note wonder from who……"
"Li,
Pls. meet me at the forest we need to talk about Mikoto
Horo"
"I wonder what there is to talk about" she thought as she left to the forest.
Mikoto's P.O.V.
"Everyday when I wake I think of my days as a child I faced so much that a child should never face. I try to follow what I'm suppose to do but someone always dies. When I wake I find tears in my eyes remembering my family but I no longer have one I try to imagine and think it's a dream but like always it comes true showing me its not a dream. I always wonder why me why did I become the chosen one" I looked up into the stars a fell a sleep.
Dream P.O.V.
"MIKOTO PLEASE RUN! RUN MY CHILD" Her mother screamed.
"MOTHER why no I won't leave you" she screamed
"My child you must you are the chosen one, I will not let them kill you….now GO!"
"NO I Won't let father kill …LET ME FIGHT!"
"SANOSUKE take you're sister and leave send to Ryuka quickly"
"Yes mother " sanosuke said as he grabbed Mikoto
"NO LET ME GO …MOTHER! NOOOO" she screamed as she left.
"be safe my child" she whispered as her tear fell.
Mikoto's sensei was fighting the guards saving time for Mikoto to get away.
"GOOD LUCK MY APPRENTICE I HAVE TAUGHT YOU WELL" He yelled as he kept fighting.
Just as she was brought to Ryuka, sanosuke ran back to help her mother and sensei.
"BROTHER NO! DON"T GO" she screamed after him.
"Little sister I must ….be strong for us all" he said as he left. Mikoto tried to catch him but Ryuka held him down.
Mikoto was struggling in Ryuka's grasp as her brother made it to her mother, and sensei and fought. Just as Mikoto stopped struggling
"Aaaaaaaaaah" a scream was heard.
"MOTHER!" Mikoto screamed and blew Ryuka away from holding her and ran to them.
She ran and found nothing but blood then soon had found….three dead bodies on the ground.
"No..No..No…NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" She screamed as she did a glow appeared her wings came out a blew every soldier away along with others as well. As she did , she had fainted from to much energy used.
"Mother…..Sensei….Sanosuke" she whispered then everything went blank.
END of Dram P.O.V.
Back with Mikoto's P.O.V.
That was the first time I activated my powers I thought
"I had made a promise to get my revenge and intend to fulfill that's why when I dream, I dream of a new life one I wish I could have… but as I wake I see it will never come true" Just as she got up her another tear had fallen but ignored her pain and wiped the tear until a shuriken had landed with a note. I looked to see if it was any ninja she knew but to no avail she couldn't see the stranger had already left. AS I read the note I ran and dropped the note.
Mikoto, Save the curse one she's headed for a trap, our plans will be ruined. Hurry you don't have much time she has already headed for the trap.
U.S. (Lol sounds like united states but it mean Uchiha Sasuke hehe…..)
