Back On Asteria…no-one point of view
…
Blayze took long strides down the corridor, paintings passed him of all those who had lived in the castle over the past few centuries. Soon, he would get his painting up there too. The first Fire King, not a lord, but a king. He relished in the fact that he was the sole ruler of Asteria, was a Fire King. He could have been here, living in the castle, there was a chance of that once.
He felt like the paintings taunted him, but he belonged here. He had the right to be there. He belonged there, and he would not be taunted by some paint on a canvas. He sped past them, trying to ignore them, but there was still that feeling in the back of his mind that would not leave. The room he was headed to was a secret one. Hidden deep in the castle.
The portal room. In that room, he almost caught her. She just escaped, just out of reach. He beat himself up inside, he just missed hitting her with the dark fire. That annoying, frustrating little bitch got away. But he will get her, and her powers. He knew that Georgia would put up a fight, and he's definitely looking forward to that.
When he approached the doors of the portal room, he threw open the door, earning him a large bang from the wall colliding with the door.
A figure was sitting in the middle of the room, walking around a small slit of light in the centre of the room. He had short, curly blonde hair, with vibrant blue eyes. Those eyes were full of shock, and some annoyance with the sudden noise.
"Bloody hell mate. Frightened the crap out of me." He says looking around the crack once again.
"Did it work?" Blaze demanded, not in the best of moods right now.
"Oh, hi Lachy, I'm good how are you?" The blonde mocks the rudeness of the current King. These two were friends back a few years ago, so the mockery from Lachy came naturally, but seeing as Blayze wasn't impressed, he decided to stop, with that slightly malicious look returning to those light blue eyes. "I believe it did. Based on Che's notes, I was able to create a crack in the realms. Sadly, I couldn't get this crack wide enough or stable enough to get someone through." He says and Blayze rolls his eyes.
"Well, work harder! I want it open completely!" He demands, smacking the wall with his fist, leaving a good sized dent.
Lachy raised his eyebrows, "But I was able to get something through…" He smirks with a slightly sinister look on his face. Blayze becomes intrigued with what the blonde had to say, with a small glint of curiosity.
"Go on."
"I was able to put a small tracking storm on the little Princess. One that would strike around her for a short time. She sure would have gotten pretty big…shock, if you know what I mean." Lachy say flashing his hands as if lightening was striking.
Blayze was impressed with his progress. He was slightly hesitant letting him onto the team. After all, Che' was the best when it came to research, but Lachy seems to be working much faster. Though, if he has learned anything, Che' combs over every single detail of every book.
But she has to report all her findings to him, yet he had no idea of this. He would have to keep a closer eye on her.
"Well done. But work faster, I want this problem worked out before we are hit again by those stupid rebels. They took back some of Zephyra, and I want this done before they attack anywhere else, otherwise I'm going through and taking what power she has." Blayze says, the fire in his voice raging as he prepares to leave the room.
"I feel like I should be moved up to equal partnership with Che' on this project." Lachy says, with a slightly hopeful glint in his eye.
Blayze nods his head, thinking over. "We will see." The temporary King says, turning to leave the room, his hand holds onto the doorknob, he looks back over his shoulder, "Keep up the good work." He then leaves the room, leaving a slightly annoyed Lachy standing next to the portal.
He ran a hand through his curly blonde hair, with a deep sigh. But, a sudden chill caught his attention. Normally, when he felt that chill, it meant that Yuki was trying to get on his nerves or just say hi, but this was different. He knew Yuki for…well, as long as he could remember, and the last time he saw her, she was in the dungeon, classed as a rebel for helping Georgia escape.
Lachy knew which was the wind was blowing, so he joined Blayze. He'd rather wreak havoc on the surface rather than being trapped in a dungeon. He didn't really care if he was trying to hurt a friend, he was all about self-preservation.
But that chill, he followed it towards the door where he felt it the most. On the door knob specifically, the one Blayze used only moments ago. It was covered in frost, but Blayze has fire powers. He's seen it for himself. And every Ice enchanted has a unique pattern of frost, and he knew who this pattern belonged to, "Yuki…" He whispered, wiping the frost away with his finger. "Interesting…" He mutters returning back to his post around the slit of portal.
"…Very interesting." He says waving his over the portal, stopping the storm he created on earth.
…
The dolphins and mini shark took us as far as they could up along the beach without getting themselves beached. I pulled Hikaru up onto the shore, which was pretty hard for some reason, and I let him lay his back.
I watch his chest like a hawk, waiting for it to rise and fall but it didn't. "Hikaru you're kidding me…" I grumble, placing my hands on his chest and begin to pump to the beat of 'Staying Alive', and after counting 30 compressions, I stop and pinch his nose, rather annoyed that I have to 'kiss' Hikaru. It would be my first kiss too. Well, this wouldn't really count as a kiss, would it? No, I definitely won't count it.
I pinch his nose, and go in for CPR. Just as our lips were inches apart, water spat out of his mouth, and all over my face. "Gross…" was able to mutter before getting whacked in the head by Hikaru's own as he sat up in a panic. He sat there, breathing in and out, and in and out. Not bothered by the fact that his head just hit mine. "Honestly, you a pain in the ass, and my head." I grumble lying down on the sand.
"What happened?" He asks, really out of it because he's looking at the vast ocean before us.
"You fell of the boat. What else?" I groan, rubbing my head and propping myself up on my elbows. "Are you 'right?" I ask and he turns to me with a rather sleepy expression.
"I guess. As good as I could be after almost drown…you have a tail." His voice goes flat as if not how knowing how to react. I look down at my feet, well what I assumed were my feet, but yet, there was my tail, and mermaid bra, with all the chains and jewels on it. That was probably why it was so hard to pull him up on the shore.
So I do the only thing I can. "No I don't." I say, pretending that I had no idea what he was talking about.
"Yes you do, I can see it. Right there." he says pointing to my tail, and then he goes to touch it. Great, this is perfect.
Just as he was about to touch my tail, I give him a good, hard earned slap across the face with my right hand, making him whip his head to the left, giving me enough time to change my tail back into my legs. "Hikaru, you're a complete idiot, and not to pervert and asshole." I shout at his as he holds his cheek in shock, but he slowly turns back to me, his eye line making straight to my legs.
"I swear to god that it…" I cut him off by standing up and walking along the beach. Something is off about the place. "Where are you going?!" He demands.
I turn my head over my shoulder and make my hand mimicking a mouth, which I clamp shut. "Shhhhhh!" I tell him listening out.
"But…"
"Shhhhhh!" I growl looking into the forest. I can hear Hikaru get off the sand and walk next to me, well, at least he was being quiet. "Can you hear that?" I whisper.
"No?" He whispers back to me.
"Exactly. This is an island, there are meant to be tonnes of birds or animals in general. But we can't hear anything." I say moving up onto the tree line. This island is huge, maybe it's a protected island where humans can't actually build things? The trees there look like they haven't been touched my man, but somethings off.
"So? It's probably just quiet. And can I say you are extremely calm for being marooned on a BLOODY ISLAND!"
I turn to him which a glare, "Dude, Hakuna your Tata's. There's something else going on here." I tell him walking into the forest, zoning in with the trees around me.
And my suspicions were confirmed when I spied something shiny within the leaf foliage. "And I'm trapped on an island with a crazy person."
"Well how do you think I feel?" I say with a glare over my shoulder before looking down at the shiny thing, almost hidden under the leaves. "But I don't think we're the only ones here." I kneel down next to the shiny thing, pulling it out of the ground. This shiny thing is highly dangerous. "Do you know what this is?" I say holding up the pointy thing. It's small, around the size of a pacer, one the end, a small feather at the end.
"At dart?" He raises his eyebrows, obviously not getting what I'm trying to get him to get. Did that even make sense?
"Yeah…but what is it doing here? And where are all the animals?" I say, waiting for those incredibly slow gears to click in his head.
"They're…" He begins to look around, orange eyes scanning the trees for any sign of life, but by the confusion in his eyes, I could tell that there isn't any in sight, "…somewhere…." He trails off.
I give him the biggest and most judgemental look I could muster, "Dude, this is where you're meant to connect the dots."
"Any idiot could connect the dots. There are poachers on the island. So what?" He shrugs and I begin to growl at him.
"How can you just shrug that off you idiot! Are you insane?!" I begin to shout at him before going quiet as a voice enters my head.
"Get down and hide!"
I don't hesitate, and found the look on Hikaru's face when I tackle him to the ground, in a bunch of nearby bushes. He groans in pain, probably due to the rough landing and the fact that I'm lying on top of him, holding down his head with my hand across his mouth.
I can feel Hikaru begin to register what was going on, as be began struggle under my weight. I but a good glare on my face and whack him on the top of the head, before whipping my hand to my mouth and placing my index finger on my lips, silently telling him to shut up.
His amber eyes looked back into my own with a small glare, but widened with worry when we heard footsteps coming our way. It sounded like a person walking down the path, a large gun in one hand and a walkie talkie in the other.
"Boss, orders for those two kids found in sector two?" He says into the black box in his hand. He had to flip his messy, long, black hair out of his face. He didn't look like a professional hunter. His clothes were pretty casual. Baggy jeans, loose fitting singlet, regular joggers…there wasn't much about him saying that he was with an organised group.
There was small static on the radio as he waited, but then heard a response, "Orders are to kill on sight. Probably stupid tree huggers bringing in reinforcements, I thought we got rid of her. The last ship goes out tonight and I don't want it messed with. Do. Not. Let. Them!" And then the radio went silent, leaving no sound in this quiet jungle, and leaving no time for him to respond.
"Rodger that…" He mumbled with the role of his eyes.
I look down at Hikaru who looks terrified. There was fear and shock mixed in those amber eyes of his, which were still locked onto the sight of the man through the bush. There was something worrying, in the pit of my stomach that only arose when I looked down at the scared teen. It was like…I saw a scared kid, someone who didn't know what he was doing, not the usual dick head guy whom I'm pissed off with.
I didn't see that. I saw someone who need help, and who was scared…and I had to protect him.
What kind of inner monologue was that? One saying that I am starting to stop hating Hikaru, just because he is scared.
I notice that he turned his head to me, his eyes pouring straight into my own, scared and afraid. The man still hadn't moved off, and I had only realised when he spoke on the radio again.
"Yo Rikki, you said one of those kids was a girl right?" He says into the walkie talkie
There was a short static whilst the signal travelled over the air, "Yeah that right. What are ya thinking Mako?" A gruff voice calls through, causing the guys, who's name I guess is Mako, smirks wider then what he and before, revealing slightly rotten teeth.
Mako then laughs into the radio, "I'm just saying, Candi is good and all for a fun time here on the island, but she's workin' here too. With this one, we could have all the time in the world to f*ck her."
My eyes widen at the sentence, and a hand slaps over my mouth as I gasp. It was my own out of natural instinct, because I would have shouted at him, and probably beaten the snot out of him, making him more or less likely shoot me. Then who wold protect the orange haired baby?
I need to be smart about this…
I did notice that Hikaru glared at him, once he said it. Then it clicked in my head, he was pissed. After hearing those words, he became angry, and you could see it all over his face. Hikaru was pissed off that these guys were talking about…yeah, I'm noting going to repeat that.
Yes, I'm freaked out by what they said, who wouldn't be? It was a bunch of guys basically making plans of making me…yet again, I'm not going into it.
"I get cha. You know what, I reckon we should make a bet. First one to find her, gets first go." the voice caled back through the radio, and I take in a deep breath to calm my nerves.
"Deal. That god it's the last job on the island, the last three boats of animals leave tonight, so we'll be free all tomorrow. Anyway, I'll catch ya later. I've got some whore hunting to do." And with that, he turns off the radio.
Under me, I could see Hikaru beginning to wriggle, and fidget. His face began to scrunch up, with his nose constantly twitching. Oh god, you're kidding me Hikaru…please don't tell me you're about to… "Achoo" It was so soft for a sneeze, but it was able to catch the guy's attention. I ducked down lower, practically lying on top of Hikaru, trying to keep myself hidden.
Mako's head snaps our way, staring directly at the bush that we're hiding at.
Way to go Hikaru…way to frigging go…
My eyes scan the surrounding area for anything useful, a branch or a stick or something, but there was nothing I could see, and the snapping of a stick from outside the bush caught my attention once again, so I now have to resort to feeling.
The first rock was a pebble and would help, the next one I found was the size of my hand, but it wasn't big enough, and the next I just grabbed because he was getting way too close for comfort.
Jumping to my feet, I bring the dock up with me, and smack him in the head, right along the forehead, making him stumble backward, and onto the ground underneath him. "I can't believe that actually worked…" Looking down at him, before looking at the rock in my hand. It was really oddly shaped for a rock. It was a lot darker then what I expected, and it feels kinda lighter then what I expected.
Oh crap…I just realised what it was…quite literally crap, dried crap.
"Well that's lovely…" I say to no one before letting the ball role out of my hand and onto the passed out Mako on the ground. I bend down next to him as Hikaru emerges from the bushes. I begin to look for anything useful, besides the gun, on his body.
"Um, what are you doing?" Hikaru says looking over my shoulder.
I stand up to my height, slightly shorter than he is, but not by much, and shove the gun into his chest, which he holds onto with wide eyes. "What does it look like?" I say with a flat tone, thinking that someone should be able to understand the concept of looting an unconscious person. "We need to stay low, and out of sight." I softly say, finding a pocket knife on him. Nice.
"What the hell happened to you?" He questions my change in tone and behaviour.
I sigh and roll my eyes at him, "Are you blind? We are on an island with people who want to kill us, and do…other things. But above all else, they are kidnapping animals to sell them or do who knows what to them, and frankly, I'm not one to sit around and watch it happen." I rant continuously poking him in the chest with every point I make.
"Just let Tamaki deal with it when we get back." He tries to counter.
But all I can do is shake my head, "You're kidding me right? How long do you think we're going to be here? Twenty minutes? Think realistically!"
He begins to glare at me, "Me? You should be thinking realistically! As soon as you knocked that guy out you started acting like you were in some sort of action movie! You're not! You're just a stupid girl!"
Something inside me just snapped, "Stupid girl?" I growl at him, "Oh yeah, I guess you're right Hikaru, I'm just a stupid girl who jumped off the side of a boat to save your stupid ass! It's not like I stopped Kaoru from jumping in after you, who would have drowned for sure." I yell at him with so much anger and passion, that I could feel my stomach burning on the inside, and my heart too.
Why would he call me a stupid girl? I saved his frigging life, and in hindsight, his brothers'.
"You stopped Kaoru from jumping in?" His tone changed at the mention of his brother. His eyes softened, as did his tone and a hint of a smile appears on his lips. "Thank you…" He basically whispered.
I turn my back and begin to walk into the forest. "Don't mention it." I say, slightly looking back over his shoulder.
Damnit, I should have grabbed the gun before I went! If I'm going off on my own, I think I'll need it more than him. But I just made such a cool exit, I can't turn around now! Goddamn it! Oh well, the only fire power I'll need I what will come out of my hands. I can do this on my own, and I don't really need help.
"God, you're such a drama queen." The voice of a small red entered my head.
I stop in my tracks. "Hold up…you are here?" I exclaim in my head scanning the overhanging trees for any signs of red.
"Who do you think told you to get down?" She taunts, as a walk further into the forest.
"I thought I was talking to a tree." I mumble, still looking around.
"You thought you were talking to a tree?" Hikaru's voice calls through behind me.
I turn to him with my eyebrows raised, "Did you not just see me storm off? That means you do not follow me."
"Yes…but in every movie I've ever seen, when the chick storms off, she wants the guy to go with her." He says continuously glancing around the forest. Oh, I see.
"You were scared weren't you?" I say in a flat, yet amused tone.
He gives me a look of disbelief. "Pftt, no." He says. That when I see Winter in a tree behind Hikaru, who looks like she had a plan. All she did was fly down and sit on his shoulder, and he freaked. Hikaru quite literally screamed like a girl and froze on the spot.
"
I stood there on a slant with my arms folded. "U-huh. Could have fooled me." I say, nodding my head to let Winter know to sit on my shoulder, to which she obliges. "Come on scaredy cat, let's go."
…
"My feet hurt…" Hikaru complains for the hundredth time. Pursing my lips together, I turn around and huff.
"Oh would you shut up? I am sorry for not grabbing you designer thongs before jumping into the water you save your ass." I snap at him and then turn around and head towards the highest point on the island.
"Do you even know where you're going?" He says speaking again.
"Shut. Up." I growl, "You're going to give us awa-" My sentence was cut off when something tackled me out of the bushes, causing me to gasp in surprise.
"Gotcha!" I gruff, deep voice growls above me, as I am pushed into the dirt by this big weight.
"Get off me!" I growl, trying to throw him off, but nothing was working. He was basically sitting on me, and probably breaking my lungs and ribs in the process trying to stop me from getting caught. I go to shout again, but a gag is thrown over my mouth, so all that came out was muffled screams for him to get off. This guy is honestly so heavy, and he is using all his body weight to keep me down.
I haven't heard Hikaru at all, which is very concerning for me, and I haven't seen Winter either. "Hmmkamuuu" I try to shout out to him to see if he was ok, but for obvious reasons it didn't work.
A rough tug of my ponytail pulled my head upward, straining my neck and causing mass pain. "I guess I won the bet." he mumbled to whoever was around him, and I could hear grunts of somewhat annoyance. I think this was the guy from the radio.
I throw my shoulders back and forth as a means of escape but to no avail. I was trapped between a bunch of rocks and a really heavy dude. It feels like those rocks are slowly being screwed into my stomach, and it hurts like a female dog.
…
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO what do you think? Dramatic? Am I right? ;p
Anyway, that's all from me but I'll leave you with another question.
If you were trapped on an Island with one host, who would it be, why, and what would you guys do?
Until Next time
Silva Out!
