"What is Matanabe?" finally Al asked
Hohenhiem took a steady but still slightly shaky breath trying to calm himself, after a few seconds he finally spoke.
"Matanabe…" he began "was a fierce creature from an ancient time."
OoO
"Lady Kiyome we must leave now it isn't safe anymore" said a young man to the women standing at the window
"Lady Kiyome!" shouted the young man
"I am not deaf Liore," snapped Lady Kiyome to the young man at her doorway "I am fully aware of the situation and I am aware of my Lord's wishes." Lady Kiyome turned to face Liore with a soft smile on her face "Death is but the next step of life for our great Nation."
"Lady Kiyome we must leave if we are to save Yamagar from destruction" said Liore this time she heard the urgency within his voice
"Very well let's…" but before Kiyome could finish the sentence an explosion shook the building, the window Kiyome stood next to shattered and headed straight towards her like a thousand deadly knives a beautiful blue glow emitted all around them both.
OoO
"We can't hold this up forever we need Lady Kiyome!"
"I know I'm running low on weapons!"
"I will die before I let this demon into our city!"
"What's that over there?!"
"Oh No! it's coming from the palace!"
"LADY KIYOME!"
OoO
"Cough, cough"
The dust slowly cleared enough that Liore could see just his hand in front of his face
"Cough, cough, La-cough, Lady Kiyome!" he struggled very hard to move the concrete slab that had pinned his left leg
"Damn it" he said "won't budge"
"Liore!" came a cry from in front of him
"Lady Kiyome!" Kiyome reached out to Liore and tried to grasp his hand
"Liore where are you?" she cried
"Lady Kiyome please save yourself. Matanabe could attack again at any second, leave me and go!" Liore shouted out
"Liore I can't!"
"I can't leave you behind I love you, you fool I used my power to deflect as much of that blast but I wasn't fast enough" Kiyome thought to herself tears streaming down her face leaving streaks in the dust.
Just as the tears started down her face Kiyome clapped her tattooed hands together and pressed them on what was left of the floor, the blue glow started again but this time the reaction was not to defend but to restore and as soon as the dust cleared Kiyome and Liore where holding each other tightly.
OoO
"I must protect my Nation" Lady Kiyome and Liore had escaped the palace and were now standing on the cliff face that looked out over the city of Yamagar.
"This is truly awful, who could've awaken Matanabe the devils dog of destruction!" Liore hissed through gritted teeth as he and Lady Kiyome watched as Matanabe wrecked havoc on their beloved Nation.
"Liore… I need to ask a favour" Kiyome said looking down at her once beautiful city.
"Anything Lady Kiyome!" he said looking at her with determination to forefill what ever she asked of him.
"Tell my Lord, Father I will protect the Yamagar Nation with all my power and that I love him very much."
MERRY CHRISTMAS X2
