Lil LoveStar: Hi guys! Oh thank you for the reviews I loved them all and thanks for being so patient with me, with my internet going out and my writers block, I'm glad you like what I do, of course I do wish I was better like all writers wish but from you all say I think that I'm pretty good. Thank you to:

Rio: Wow it looks like you're ready LoveStar

Meiling: Of course she is, and she'll be updating more of her stories later, our CHAMP! YOU GO!

Lil LoveStar: Oh stop you're making me blush, well let's get started!

After the whole Demon and Tori ordeal Sakura was exhausted but after some recovery she was ready to see the last fight before the end of the semi-finals.

"You sure you're okay Sakura?" Madison asked.

"She's right, you do need to rest." Von said with a worried look, he was always brotherly to all the girls.

"I'm ok, and I want to see Destiny fight that other creepy guy." Sakura said getting up. She walked down the hall, still tired. "Kero! Go help her." Madison said, wondering why Kero didn't seem like much of a guardian. Kero came out of Madison's long hair, a cookie in his paws. "Got you." He ate the cookie and flew behind Sakura; he changed into his true form Keroberos and put her on his back and walked to the arena. "Thanks Kero." Sakura smiled.

Showron

Showron sat and watched his mistress practice. He could tell she was upset from the previous fight, she did try to stop the furious Sakura and Xiaolang but she really couldn't really stop time with all the magical people in that one place. But everything turned out alright; Demon didn't die because of the healing he got from the doctors. But since she was fighting that Dax guy she wanted to be ready for anything that guy had. Destiny felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her. "You alright?" The deep voice asked.

"I'd say sp, I do hope that Sakura and Xiaolang are okay, I didn't go to see them."

"Xiaolang is fine and his room. Sakura is upstairs so she can see you fight." Michael said kissing her cheek. Destiny looked at him, "Do you think I can beat that Dax guy?"

"Well if you have problems during the fight, scare him with your scar." Showron laughed. Destiny hit him with a pillow. Showron was has the dizzy eyes as Michael helped him out and they left together.

Xiaolang's POV

What happened up there earlier? I felt pure anger in me as well as a need to protect Sakura. I think it happened when that Demon guy kissed her, I got jealous and mad that he stole a kiss from her. I was about to attack him but Sakura did it before I could and someone used a very weak time stop. I'll have to talk to Sakura about this later.

Battle Arena

"HELLO again and welcome back to the international tournament semi-finals!" Roxi practically screamed out. "And we're currently in the last round of the semi-finals, and our fight will be between Dax Hadami and Destiny Charles!" Roxi added.

"Who would have thought that she would get to host the last fight in the semi-finals?" Meiling chuckled.

"Well she's full of energy so she was a good choice." Michael smiled at his little sister's attitude.

"Hey what do you guys think is going to happen in this fight?" Rio asked.

"Hopefully Dax doesn't have powers like Demon." Sakura said resting her head against Xiaolang's shoulder.

"Destiny will kick his ass even if he does." Levar said walking up to them with the rest of the American Team. "We saw your fight Avalon-chan, even if Dax does have powers like Demon's Destiny will be ready for them." He added. The gong soon rang and that was when Dax started off the same way Demon did only he was faster and a lot harder to see.

"Damnit, he won't give her a chance just like Demon didn't give you a chance." Xiaolang said to Sakura and out loud glaring. Sakura looked up at him then back to the fight.

Destiny's POV

Where is he? I can't see him, he's moving too fast for me to see him. But... it's faint but I can hear his movements, and I can feel his aura. I'll have to concentrate to find him.

Normal POV

Destiny looked around at first but she calmed down and closed her eyes and stood perfectly still. Almost everyone gasped and thought she was giving up.

"Is she giving up?" Madison asked.

"No, she's trying to find him; she's using the same technique that she found me with." Levar said.

"She's listening for his movements and is feeling for his aura." Kalvin explained further.

Destiny could now see him moving in her mind's eyes and feel his aura right behind him. When he was at a certain spot she reacted like lightening and said, "Got you!" She kicked toward him, hitting him to the ground. Dax quickly got up and wiped the blood from his mouth, "Very good little demon." Destiny gasped at what he called her. Kalvin, Xiaolang, and Eli and everyone who knew and remembered Aiden Li and what happened after their training was over overheard and they too couldn't believe what he called her. Destiny's eyes burned with a black fire now, she hated that name and she hated the man who gave it to her.

"How dare you." She said demonically. "How dare you call me that." She rushed toward him and punched and kicked him till he hit the floor again. She glared down at him but she shook off the anger before it got to her.

"You're fighting is one that is even better than the Card Mistress Charles-san, I will have fun breaking you." He smirked getting up and ready to go at it again. Destiny narrowed her eyes at him, but she remained cool. As he walked around her she watched him. He stopped and summoned a Japanese sword he came at her quickly and nearly cut her top if she hadn't bent her back backwards. She flipped and kicked at him but he didn't drop the sword. Before she safely landed on her feet he ran to her and pushed her to the floor pinning her like Demon did Sakura (AN: I love the girl in trouble thing and this is one of my favorite kinds).

"He did the same thing Demon did to Sakura." Meiling said glaring. Michael looked at Dax closely, "What is he doing?" He asked in a low tone.

"The same thing Demon did to me." Sakura said shivering at the thought. Michael could tell, just like Xiaolang that Destiny was not comfortable being so close to Dax and she was extremely uncomfortable with him sliding down her.

"What are you going to do now?" Dax asked as he attacked her mouth just like Demon had, only he was touching her. In a sudden flash, not only did Dax lose but Destiny nearly lost control.

Dax's POV

She tastes so sweet but why does it feel like she just got stronger, what the? Her face changed, she had a scar on her left eye how did that appear? Her new found energy pushed me away from her. She glared at me as if she was about to kill me...

Normal POV

As Dax kissed Destiny, Michael got mad as hell and was about to go in there and throw him off her but Levar, Kalvin, Eli, Rio and Jimmy held him back. "Let me go, I'm going to kill him..." Michael growled.

"That's what we're afraid of." Rio said.

"You're her brother Kalvin, Jimmy, why are you holding me back?" He asked.

"Cause you're mad as hell and your eyes are a blood red, we're not letting you go." Jimmy said.

As Destiny was being attacked, everyone started to feel a powerful force from her and Michael, just like with Sakura and Xiaolang. Michael broke from the boy's grasp and charged the field. But before he could even lay a hand on Dax, Destiny broke off of him; she summoned her ice sword and stabbed him in the shoulder. The power of magic stopped and Michael's red eyes turned back to normal and Destiny's black eyes turned back as well. (AN: Black eyes? Uh oh) Everyone looked a Dax, his arm turned into ice and the pain circulated through his whole arm. "I forfeit." He said in pain.

"Destiny! Take the sword out!" Eli yelled. Destiny kept her back to him and didn't remove the sword. Sakura got up and went past Destiny and took the sword out and put it down away from Destiny. Destiny turned and growled at Sakura and Eli. Eli frowned at the look in her eyes and Sakura looked at her with a scared look. Destiny looked at Sakura's face and her face softened. She looked at Michael and her friends before she ran off in tears.

Lil LoveStar: Sorry for that but I felt that it had to end that way.

Keroberos: We'll forgive you this time.
