neko-chan: I haven't updated this fanfic for along while I hope people haven't lost interest with it. I haven't lost interest in this just I had a lot of work for the college course I am on right now and I had and still have writer's block for this fanfic but I am slowly getting rid of it.

Chapter 11: Down with the troll like man!

3rd pov

People were excited by the end of the first task finishing they when to congratulate the champions, most of the girls went to Krum to congrats him while the Hogwarts pupils congrats the Hufflepuff on his good thinking and how was the experience on what it felt like against a dragon. The only thing was that two of the champions were missing, people when looking for them but they weren't found anywhere. People really wanted to talk to Kai about the creature that they saw. Most really just wanted to know what it was, and half the guys wanted to know where they could find one themselves. The missing couple flew off on Sliver towards the forbidden forest to get some peace, for Kai to think of a way to help Mimi and Fleur... well she didn't trust the winged woman with her mate no matter what Kai said. So they gave their eggs to Apollo to drop off at their room and then she would come and catch up with them later. As they landed Kai jumped off first and helped to two girls off and then started to think of a plan on what to do.

Kai's pov
I made sure that I was away from the crowds that wanted to celebrate my win on the challenge. But that can later tonight, right now I need to make sure I had a plan to save Mimi, I would let her hide with Apollo the two seem to enjoying each other anyway. Pacing in a clearing with Fleur and Mimi in here helping me think of other plans that I could use, since her 'master' was busy he won't look for her till later in the night. "So we have a plan right, we need to wait till night and I have to challenge him to something for your contact and I know he can't turn it down." I spoke to them as I continued to pace about the clearing "Oui I understan' but pleas' stop pacing it's makin' me dizzy" I looked at Fleur and frowned at her, but stopped moving and sat down next to her sighing to myself. I didn't want to fail with this challenge. It was a matter of life and death.

Shaking my head I was determined with what I need to do for Mimi and that was save her from that scum, I stood up and closed my eyes to rethink my plan through and nodded to myself about it 'screw the plan your just going to wing it in the end anyway Kai why think of a plan' I slammed the door in my mind that had Okami in it... she really needs to shut up with I'm trying to think, too bad she lives in my head. I looked over to the two, Fleur sitting on a rock looking at me, her beautiful blue eyes stared at me like it was looking through my soul, while Mimi was looking at her wing that was healed by Apollo flexing it in and out then she looked at me when she felt my stare. "Come on let's go see your soon to be former master Mimi, Fleur go back please I don't want you to get hurt if something goes wrong, plus don't you have a party to go too, everyone will be looking for you?" I looked at her, while she huffed at me clearly upset that she couldn't come with me, but I'm not placing her in danger I am not losing her. "Fine but I am not happ' about this, Kai yo better come and look for me tomorrow" she looked at me with her arms crossed, it was cute so I smiled at her and hugged her gently making sure that she knew that I wasn't happy as well for leaving her and kissed her on the lips lightly " I will make it up to you I promise you" I whispered to her and stepped back away from her, she sighed and walked off to hopefully her carriage most likely to be mobbed by her fellow students. When she disappeared from my view I turned to look at Mimi and nodded to her, she tensed when she was about to face the guy that happen been torturing her for Merlin knows how long.

Walking through the clearing for about a five minutes I was hit with the familiar foul smell of her 'master' I looking clearly now at the man, who I rather say that he was more troll then human. He was fat and covered in layers of thick hair, he smelt disturbing as well sweat, beer and it seemed like he haven't taken a bath for years, he had fat prudy arms and fingers which looked more like a sausage then anything else. Covering my nose, to try and not breathe in the smell that most likely is worse then a troll and I readied myself then walked up to the mini troll, that was sitting next to a cage counting the money in his hand "There you are wretch! You get back in your cage" He looked up from where he sat and pointed to the cage, getting a closer look at it, the thing was cramped there was no way that any winged creature that would be placed in there not get their wings damaged. So I placed myself in front of Mimi and stood in front of her protectively. "You're not taking her any where!" I growled at him as Mimi shrank behind me, while I glared at him and shown off my fangs for a bigger impact it seemed to work since, he visible gulped and took a step back."You can't scare me! I have a pact with that bitch over there so hand her over, now!" He shouted, his spit flew everywhere, some hitting my face making me wipe it away. "I know that why I challenge you, and you know that you can't back down that is part of the contract" I glared at him. He seem to shrink back when I said that "yes I do but you know that it's life and death! Are you willing to risk your life for something like that? A whore? " he countered back at me smug thinking I wouldn't do it. Oh how am I going to prove him wrong

Growling I nodded 'Why can't we just kill him? The contract will be a nulled anyway it would be quicker if you just killed him Kai' Okami had a point but I am not killing a man no matter what. I stared at him as I felt my eyes started to change into cat slits, it showed my anger was leaking out and a bit of Okami as well. "So what is the challenge?" I questioned him, and he grinned insanely "Oh it's simple see these goblets I'm going to fill them with some water and one will be filled with poison, there will only be two goblets and we drink them at the same time" I looked at him and glared "How would that be fair? You would know which one would have poison in it while I won't" he growled at me "Fine you can which the goblets around when they are placed on the table you happy!" I nodded at him and watched as he turned his back. "Please Kai, you don't have to do this, you can die" Mimi whimpered next to me, I looked back at her and smiled "Just trust me ok?" I looked at her as I saw him place the goblets on the table. 'Your going to wing it aren't you? I knew it!'

"You ready to die bitch" he smirked and looked at me while I just started moving the cups at a fast pace and he couldn't keep up with it, I saw him sweating and stared at the cups "No but are you?" I looked at him straight in the eyes "You trying to fool me I know exactly where the poison is!" he gave me his 'best poker' face and I bested him and looked stare at him and made my eyes flash, watching him stumble in surprise and fear "If you are so sure then pick it" He looked at me and then grabbed the cup to the left then placed it down. I heard Okami laugh in my head ' It doesn't matter what he chooses he will die either way' she quietly chuckled in head. "You want to trick me don't you... you know that I would pick the left cup so I really choose this cup" he placed the cup back down and picked up the other cup. I sighed and picked up the one that was left " 1... 2... 3" We both drank the cups and he stood up looking smug "You fool! I swallowed the antidote to the poison before drinking since I placed poison in both those cups! You fool..." He couldn't finish his taunting as he fell on the floor weakened "But.. how?" he grunted looking up at me as I was completely fine, I raised an eyebrow at him and dusted myself off "You think I couldn't handle the poison that you gave me? I knew you were a cheater you fat troll so I slipped some of my own poison into the drinks when switching them around... You really think you could outdo a demon? I was trained as a child to handle poison being force fed it till it would do nothing to me at all"

"You... whore you cheated" I looked at him and simply turned away "No I didn't it's life and look at that yours is up, since your the one dying and guess what? no one will come and look for you... you are in the forbidden forest after all, you took your pay and walked away before you checked on Mimi. No one will look for you but some creatures that want a snack, but I doubt it with the smell you give off" I looked at the steel cage... I needed to get rid of it before anything finds it, so I created molten hot flames in my hands and threw it at the cage, while using a shield spell to help control the explosion that I created. When the steel was nothing but melted iron from a few hits I flicked my wand at them making the pieces disappear. Checking the area to make sure it was clear I walked out with Mimi in toll, she following in shock and awe.

Just as I was at the edge of the forest, I turned around just as I got tackled by Mimi she was sobbing into my shoulder repeating herself thanking me over and over again, I guess she suffered more then I thought she did with that slime. Unfortunately I didn't know what to do with a crying girl, so all I could think of was to stoke her head softly cooing her to stop her from crying and to calm her down, just like what mother use to do for me with I was upset. "Wait... I need to create the contract with you" she looked at me, with her tear-stained face and blood shoot eyes which distracted me when she was closing in for the sealing kiss, But luckily I snapped out of it in time to I throw my hands to her mouth stopping her. "I will not be nor do I want to be your master, I said I will set you free and I stuck to my word so please go where you want to be." she looked at me and shook her head not wanting to leave, sighing I scratched my head in what to do I saw glowing eyes from the forest which I could tell it was Apollo, her eyes shown sadness in them so I gestured her towards us "You can make a contract with Apollo, I saw the way you two looked at each other and I know you want to be with her. She will look after you" I smiled at her, when once again she looked at me in shock. While Apollo just lunged for her and sealed her with a kiss. 'well that's something I like and don't mind' I rolled my eyes at Okami and blocked her out again along with her perverted thoughts.

As I smiled I sense the contract about to start and they were knocked onto the floor. As magic circle with runes appeared spinning under them black magic runes started to twist their way around them and light shone bright purple from beneath them. The light was so bright I had to shield my eyes, from the harsh light that was coming at me which caused me to close my eyes as well. I moved my arm and saw the light dying down, and watched as the runes started to attach themselves to the two girls. On Mimi's neck and wrists while they attached to Apollo's left arm, Mimi's name was now on Apollo and Apollo's name was on Mimi's neck while black chains were on her wrists that looped all the way around it. I smiled at the two newly formed couple as they basked in the afterglow of the bond they just created, making me think back to the one I love back so standing up I moved out to give them privacy and headed my way back to the castle that I called home and to think of what that damn egg is to do with the next task something tells me I'm going to regret entering this damn competition...
