Chapter 12: The End of the Journey

"0Nee-chan! Stop...shaaaaking...meeeee." Ren said while I was saking him because I am so frustrated and angry that we are locked up.

"Ahh." A small bottle came out of Ren's pocket.

I stopped shaking Ren who dropped to the ground because...I guess he is dizzy.

"This is...Elixer? Wait, how did you get this, Ren?" Kazuma asked as he picked it up.

Ren fixing himself and then sat down properly said, "Father gave that to me. He said he got it from when he inspected Fenrir's place. He said we might need it."

Kazuma tossed to Elixer to Ren who almost didn't catch it, but did. "Geezz. Nii-san! This is rare, what if I didn't catch it?"

"But you did." Kazuma just grinned.

We are currently being held prisoners by the Maita family. They put us in this rusty old underground dungeon.

"SERIOUSLY! WHAT IS HAPPENING?! LET US OUT!" I shouted again and again.

From afar a man said, "Gezzz. That girl is so noisy."

Kazuma and Ren laughed in agreement to the man who said it.

As usual I was turning red because of anger.

'When I get my flames back, those two are gonna get it.'

...

We were nearing Kyoto and we were surprised when, "STOP!" Shouted a man with a rifle pointed to us. Kazuma suddenly stepped on the brakes.

The man walked close to us and then said, "Who are you and where did you came from?"

Kazuma then replied, "We are from the Kannagi Family from Tokyo. We need to see the head of the Maita family."

As soon as Kazuma said that, few other guys approached us and suddenly they threw smoke screen at us.

"What the?!" I said and looked around seeing those men wearing gas masks.

"Ayano...it's...sleeping..." then I saw Ren on the ground and next was Kazuma and last me who learned that it was sleeping gas.

Then when we woke up. We were here. Inside a cell.

...

"What the heck is going on in this place! YOU STUPID GUARDS! LET US OUT!" I shouted while holding tightly at the bars. Somehow this cell seem like it is built to make our powers weak Maybe this is where they keep criminal mages. And all I can do now is make a tiny fire like in a candle.

A man approached us and shoutingly said, "SHUT UP! We are never gonna let you hurt our master. And obviously we are never gonna let you steal the Great Art Script. So you should just sit quietly there before I kill you." Then he walks away.

"The Great Art Script? Why would I steal that? I don't even know what that is." I said as I sat down the floor beside Ren.

(Normal point of view)

'The Great Art Script' Kazuma thought. He thinks he might have heard it somewhere. He continued to remember while Ayano was still nagging. Ren was just quite and trying to regain his powers.

"I remember." Suddenly Kazuma said.

"The Great Art Script. It is a script that has a legendary magic written on it. Maybe this family are the ones protecting it."

Ayano was confused and didn't quite get a hold of Kazuma's words. On the other hand, Ren understood just fine.

"Uhmm, could you...maybe explain again?" Ayano said with a small laugh.

"Huh." Kazuma sighed knowing that the poor Peincess couldn't comprehend such deep words.

"In other words, it is an old scroll that has ways on how to us legendary magic written on it. Like instructions. And the Maita family is the one protecting it." Kazuma explained simply.

Ayano stood up and crossed arms and said, "Yes. I get it now. They think we want to steal so they captured us."

Kazuma smirked and said, "Bingo, Princess."

"I hope Master Haru is fine. Too bad only the doctor and the nurse are the only ones allowed in the room." The man who was standing said to his companion.

"The nurse said that his condion is worsening. When he dies the protection seal on the script will be gone and people from everywhere will start to steal it." Said the other man down the hallway.

"Then there will be...a war." The two men were looking like they don't want that but they are loyal to their master and they would do anything to protect their family.

The three in the cell heard it and suddenly a man came to the men on the hallway, "Hurry! Haru-sama needs protection! Youma's are swarming outside!" Then the men ran out.

Ren stood up and approached Ayano who was nnear the bars. He said, "Those men said that their master is sick, right?"

Ayano and Kazuma looked at him and Ayano asked, "Why, Ren?"

"Well, I just thouht that maybe this can help." He took out the Elixer and suddenly they had hope.

Ayano then faced the bars like she is ready to wreck it with flames. "Then we just need to get out of here.

"You're a genius, Ren. Unlike that one who keeps on nagging." Kazuma whispered to his little abrother while pointing at Ayano. Ren just laughed a little, sarcastically.

Ayano caught their attention when suddenly, her body is engulfed in the Crimson Flame.

"Looks like Nee-chan really wants to get out of here." Ren said to his brother.

Kazuma looked at Ayano's back and thought, 'You are really growing up into one fine woman, Princess. Seems like your anger and determination is what makes you strong.' Then a smile is formed in his face.

"LET'S...GET...OUT...OF HERE!" Then Ayano broke the bars and immediately sprinted out. She left the two boys but then they just followed her.

...

When they were outside, the main house is being the battle field. They can see youmas all round and also Enjutsushis fighting. Mostly, flames are everywhere.

Then immediately rushed towards the house and helped the others. The Maita family members were shocked to see their prisoners helping them.

Kazuma made his way through the front door and there he saw the one who seems to be the family's top mage. He approched the man and said, "We heard that your master is sick." Then continued to fight side by side with the man.

"And so?" The man said while simutaniously defeating a few youmas headed his way. He was like showing Kazuma that he is inferior to the wind user.

Kazuma smirked and then circled them with a wind that every youma in around them were obliterated immediately. "We have an Elixer."

The man looked at Kazuma and he knew that his intentions were clean so he said, "We are putting our faith in you..."

"Kazuma."

"I am Kuroyama, but Kuro is fine." The man said and then continued to battle the youmas.

"Haru-sama can't die. Not with out a successor." Kuro added.

Kazuma heard it and it made him think. But that doesn't matter now. All he need to do is rescue Haru.

Kazuma flew to Ren and said, "Ren, come on!" He grabbed his brother and flew all the way inside the mansion.

Meanwhile, Ayano was outside still battling the youmas. She was fighing just fine making Kazuma think, 'I guarantee, you'll be fine on your own.'

...

Kazuma was walking cautiously while Ren was following him. The house was empty. Then they reached a door which looks like the room they where finding.

He opened the door and found the doctor trying to kill the head of the family, Haru Maita who was lying down the bed and it seems that he can't move but he is awake.

"Who are you?" The doctor said.

As Kazuma approached them, the doctor kneeled down and grabbed Haru Maita and then pointed a knife on his neck. Kazuma continued walking like he doesn't care.

The doctor suddenly stabbed Haru in the chest. The doctor was shocked that nothing happened. When he looked down Haru's chest, there was a wind blocking his knife. Then he looked up again and was surprised that Kazuma was already in front of him.

Kazuma kicked the doctor to the side and then shouted to Ren who was standing at the door, "Give him the Elixer."

Ren rushed to Haru who looks really weak and gave him the Elixer. Meanwhile Kazuma ripped his shirt and used it to tie the doctor's hand behind him.

Haru was slowly healing and then after a while, he was completly healed. He opened his eyes and then sat down. "Are you okay now?" Ren asked.

"Ughh, ye...yes. Tha...thank you...umm..." Haru looked at Ren.

Ren smiled at him and said, "You can call me Ren. Haru-san." Then Haru also smiled at Ren.

...

"I'm hungry let's stop to eat. I want cake." Ayano said.

They are now heading off to their next destination. Back to Tokyo.

"But it's really a surprise that the is actually no script." Ren suddenly said who was seating on the back.

"Yeah. The people really believed in it. But I'm really glad that they agreed to help us. And also good for you Ren." Ayano said then looked back at Ren and smiled.

Ren looked at the necklace he was wearing. It was a thank you gift from Haru for helping them. The necklace is said to amplify the power of the ones who wears it. Ren looks glad that he made friends with Haru.

"There is a script." Kazuma suddenly said.

"Huh?" Both Ayano and Ren said and looked at Kazuma with a questioned face.

"The script exists but...it is not a script."

"What do you mean, Kazuma?" Ayano asked confusingly.

It took a while for Kazuma to talk but he did, "The Great Art is not a script. Instead, it is a memory inside Haru's head. I'm guessing...it's been passed on to the heads of the family."

"How did you know that? Nii-san." Ren asked while leaning in front.

"I just know." Kazuma now understand what Kuro said about Haru can't die without a successor. He then pushed Ren back to his seat. "Seat back, it's dangerous."

"Okay. So, Aihara Family, check. Fujimoto Family, check. And Maita Family, check. Now we can go back to Tokyo. Let's hope they managed to get some responses of agreement from the other families." Ayano said and then again nagging about cake.

...

Yikeees! Sorry for the mistake on the last chapter. I jumbled Aihara and Akitsuki but I changed it already. I'm very very sorry.

The next chapter will be action packed! Can't wait to write. =)
