Out in a field near Yokai Academy a large group of monsters were gathered to practice their fighting skills yet again. Everybody had come to increase their strength and to refine their abilities for the upcoming fight against a youko that was after Tsukune. The group had been using the field to spar and train in for some time now, with each time having them split up and square off with a partner suited to their level.
"C'mon Tsukune, you can do it," Moka said hopefully as she watched her boyfriend out in the middle of the field.
This time however before they split up into their usual groups everybody was first preparing to observe Tsukune as he took the field once again. With his Holy Lock having been damaged before from using too much power the boy had to sit out the previous training night and simply watch his friends as they prepared themselves. He had desperately wanted to fight Kuyou when he arrived to protect his friends, not willing to just sit idly by once again as everybody laid their lives on the line for him.
"Is this safe Moka? What if he gets hurt?" Luna asked worriedly.
However things had changed drastically. A new student by the name of Jovian had appeared after her friend Hokuto, the witch seeming to be able to repair both locks on Tsukune and her friend with her magic. Although originally suspicious of the girl's arrival, since she looked exactly like Apoch except for her multicolored eyes, and leery about Hokuto having a seal on his wrist as well since he too was harboring a powerful monster inside of him, the group had allowed the girl to repair Tsukune's lock which she did so with relative ease.
"He'll be fine Luna, just keep your eye on my angel, this is going to be excellent," Kurumu said with excitement and bright eyes.
Seeing as how Jovian could repair the lock anytime Tsukune had renewed confidence in himself and his ability to fight, and was eager to test his full power out before Kuyou showed up. With the threat of the lock cracking no longer around he was free to release his full vampire powers without fear of the seal being destroyed. However before the big battle with the youko came he wanted to get a feel for using such power, and to realize his limits as he still wanted to reduce the number of times he might crack the seal.
"I hope he can use his full power ok now, this is going to be a real trial for him," Kokoa said with wonder.
In order to push himself and test his power there was only one real option. After arriving at the field Tsukune had walked out to the middle while four other boys walked around him and faced off against their friend. A shadow demon by the name of Dark would test Tsukune's senses by being cloaked. An angel by the name of Rason would keep him on edge as the flyer could come from any angle. A werewolf by the name of Gin would test his reflexes as the wolf would be moving at extreme speeds. And a young mage by the name of Ahakon who would be keeping him on alert by firing off his magical spells constantly. Tsukune would have to use all his power in order to successfully fend off all the fighters.
"Ahakon looks so brave out there. Look at him stand with such confidence against Mr. Tsukune," Apoch said with wonder. Astreal nodded then glanced to Yukari who was looking at them with a dull glare.
"My boyfriend will be putting Tsukune to the test, just you watch," Yukari boasted confidently. The two sisters smirked at her with cool glares then out to the field. Yukari growled then looked back to her boyfriend, hating the fact that the sisters were still keeping Ahakon in their sights.
"If Dark cloaks them all again, Tsukune will really need his full power," Mizore commented while watching her demon carefully. She knew the boy would be cloaking himself if not everybody out there, and was ready to try to track him while he moved about.
"I hope that seal hold strong now. He needs to learn his limits," Ruby said cautiously.
"Don't worry, if he cracks a link I'll patch it up right away," Jovian said with a soft smile.
"Yes, but you may not always be around. It's best if he learns to use some control," Ruby said politely.
"C'mon Tsukune! Don't hold back!" Kokoa shouted out. Tsukune glanced to her and smirked while Gin looked at Kokoa with a dull glance. He then looked to Tsukune with a blank expression.
"Kokoa, he needs to learn to use some restraint. The lock could very easily shatter completely if he uses too much power," Ruby warned.
"Go Tsukune! Don't hold anything back!" Moka shouted out with a big smile, eager to see her boyfriend's real power and aura once again. She and her inner self were watching with anticipation of the boy's aura, and were hoping they could see it again personally later tonight. Ruby looked at the two vampire sisters then sighed in defeat.
"Relax Ruby, that's what we're here to do. Let the boy have some fun with it," Felucia said with a smirk.
Out on the field Tsukune glanced around at the four fighters, all of them keeping him in their sights closely.
'Ok, don't hold anything back. They won't be going easy on me, so I can't let my guard down.'
He closed his eyes and breathed out as he prepared for his exercise.
"You ready buddy?" Rason said as he took off his shirts and wrapped them around his torso. His wings spread out as he smiled confidently at Tsukune. Kurumu and Luna watched the angel with wonder then smiled lovingly at him as he stood out there. Dark simply took his earbuds out and put them in his pocket.
"Dark took his headphones off, now it's on!" Felucia said excitedly. Mizore merely nodded as she watched her boyfriend, knowing that if he removed his music he was indeed focused completely on something. Gin shifted to his werewolf form and got ready to charge Tsukune, aiming to not only push his friend to his limits but also show his new girlfriend that he too was a capable fighter.
"Wow Kokoa, nice… dog," Kurumu said with a giggle. Kokoa twitched then glared at the succubus with a growl.
"Hope she's a fan of doggy style," Felucia said with a snicker. Mizore and Kurumu burst out laughing while Moka looked at Kokoa worriedly.
"Don't tempt me to use my overcharge," the young vampire hissed with rage. Mizore and Kurumu looked at her with blank expressions while Felucia merely shrugged, the doll demon not seeing any danger in the vampire's threat.
"Calm down you girls, the fight is out there, not here," Ruby said flatly.
"C'mon Ahakon! Show him some real magic!" Yukari cheered out. The witch sisters glanced to her then back out to the mage.
"Go Ahakon, we believe in you!" they cheered out happily.
BANG! BANG!
The two girls dropped to the ground from a washtub to each of their heads. Yukari lowered her wand and glanced to them with annoyance.
"That's enough out of you two," she said with a bite.
Ruby glanced to Jovian who was watching Tsukune with a calm smile.
"So Jovian, how difficult is that magic to repair his lock? I wouldn't mind learning it myself," she asked curiously. Jovian giggled and glanced to her with her multicolored eyes.
"I might show you later, but for now let's enjoy the show," she said playfully. Ruby nodded and looked back out to the field with a curious glance.
Tsukune looked around at his friends and smirked with a cool expression.
"Ok, let's see what I can do without breaking this thing," he said to himself. He clenched his fists and focused on his power. This time he would use less restraint to get a feel for his full power, and would try to gauge how much would be safe before a link would be in danger of breaking. His eyes shifted to crimson as his aura flared up around him. The other boys glanced to each other and nodded. Dark vanished into a black wisp as Rason shot into the air. Ahakon aimed his hand towards Tsukune as electricity started to spark around it wildly while Gin roared out and dashed towards his friend at high speed. On the sidelines of the field all the girls were watching with eager eyes to see how Tsukune could be able to fend off all attackers again.
"Alright buddy, it's on!" Gin roared as he swung his fist towards Tsukune.
BOOM!
A massive wave of vampiric energy blasted out from Tsukune in a fierce wave, the wolf stopping instantly as Tsukune's monster energy rolled past. The girls watched with amazement as Tsukune dashed towards the stunned wolf and blasted him back with a fierce kick. Gin flew back into a tumble as a bolt of lightning shot towards Tsukune. The vampire dodged around it instantly and looked over to see Ahakon readying a fireball. He then spun around and jumped into a kick, his leg connecting with Rason's fist as the angel dived down towards him. Rason shot off as Tsukune was grabbed and thrown into a roll by an invisible boy. As he tumbled to the ground a fireball crashed into him with large explosion. From the blaze Tsukune darted out before being kicked back into the fire by Dark. He then leapt out of the fire only to meet with Rason, the angel swooping by and catching him in midair.
"C'mon, I think you can do better," the angel said in jest as he flew up and then down, slamming Tsukune into the ground like a missile. Rason flew off towards the girls as another bolt of lightning struck down at the crater. Tsukune leapt out before the bolt hit and was thrown forward by the explosion, then again as Dark grabbed and tossed him further away. Then he was immediately stopped as Gin slammed into him with a fierce punch. Tsukune rolled back into a tumble as Rason landed by the witch sisters.
"Um… he doesn't seem to be doing so well," Luna said worriedly.
"Oh my, Tsukune!" Moka cried out.
"Why isn't he using his full power?" Kurumu asked puzzled.
"Not sure, but we're supposed to keep the pressure on," Rason said as he looked to Astreal. The witch glanced out to the field then smiled confidently.
"Let's fly," she said as Rason got behind her and took the girl up into the air. Apoch blinked then smiled with a giggle.
"I'm ready when you are Mr. Dark," she said as she vanished. The other girls looked around then back to the fight.
"Is that even fair?" Luna asked with a bit of fear.
"They're pulling all the punches like last time, they're trying to get Tsukune to use his full power," Ruby said as she watched the field.
"Yeah, but they're jumping right to the heavy stuff so soon, is Tsukune even warmed up for that?" Kurumu asked worriedly.
"He can win, he did it before and he'll do it again," Moka said confidently. Kokoa nodded and watched the fighters intently. She then looked to Gin with a curious glance.
'I should be cheering for him now, not my master. Right?'
Out on the field Tsukune was dodging punch after kick from Gin while blasts of fire and electricity flew around them.
"What are you waiting for? Use your full power," Gin said as he grabbed Tsukune's arm and flung him around. Suddenly Tsukune's feet dug into the ground and he stopped the spin, the boy then grabbing the wolf by the hand with a smirk.
"Just letting you guys get warmed up," he said confidently. He then threw the wolf over his head and crashed him into the ground. Before the werewolf could groan in pain from the impact Tsukune spun him around, carving up the ground around him as Gin was still indented into the ground, then hurled the large beast towards Ahakon. The mage jumped off to the side as Gin crashed into the ground behind him. Tsukune then spun around and grabbed a fist that could not be seen. Tsukune's eyes narrowed as he focused on the faint silhouette of the demon.
"Not this time," he said confidently as he knocked the fist away and tried to punch the demon. His fist collided with a bright barrier that flickered in front of him.
"Hee hee, hello Mr. Tsukune, mind if I play as well?" Apoch giggled from the air around him.
BLAM!
A blast of energy shot out of the air next to him and blasted Tsukune back into a tumble, the boy's chest smoking from the non-lethal shot. He rolled over and jumped back up before another shot hit from above. He was blown off into a tumble as Rason swooped by with Astreal firing at him wildly. Tsukune jumped back up before Gin appeared behind him and grabbed ahold of him by the shoulders. Tsukune struggled to move before a punch connected to his gut, the boy coughing out as Dark started to hit him again and again. He looked in front of him with a strained expression, the outline of the demon wavering in his view.
"You can't hold back Tsukune. We won't either," Dark said as Tsukune took another hit to the face then to his chest. The boy coughed a bit then smirked with a chuckle.
"If you insist," he said softly. Suddenly his aura blasted around him as he growled with rage. Gin struggled to hold on while Tsukune's energy circled around them like a fierce storm.
"I think he's going to use more monster energy," Yukari said with wonder. She blinked then looked over to see Kokoa and Moka staring at the boy with soft blushes while breathing heavier.
"Yeah, he's using more monster energy," she said with a nod as the two vampire girls felt the power resonate within them.
Tsukune growled then bucked forward, throwing the wolf over his head and into a barrier that flickered briefly. In a flash Tsukune punched the wolf into, then through, the wall of energy. Gin tumbled through the shards of the barrier with a howl as Tsukune shot past the broken barrier and sent a fist towards a clear image of a shadow demon. His punch was dodged as Dark ducked and followed through with a punch of his own. Tsukune ducked and then sent out a fierce kick to the shadow demon. The foot hit the demon in the chest and knocked him away while Tsukune jumped away as multiple shots from above rained down from an airborne witch. He then tilted his head to dodge a bolt of lightning from Ahakon and then darted forward. He watched as Apoch reappeared from Dark no longer being nearby while holding onto her and let loose a punch towards her face. He stopped a hair before connecting as Apoch just stared in shock.
"You're done," he said with a cool smile. The girl shakily nodded as he turned to face Rason and Astreal.
"Mr. Tsukune…" Apoch said with wonder. The boy then held out his hands to each side and caught Gin and Dark's punches, the two boys charging from both sides simultaneously. He then threw the two together in front of him, the two boys being slammed into each other with a loud bang, then jumped up on the large werewolf's head and launched up into the air. He flew towards Rason who watched with an impressed smile. Tsukune collided with a dome surrounding the two then fell back towards the ground as Astreal aimed her shot at him.
"Not this time," she said as she fired a blast of energy at the boy. It raced toward Tsukune at high speed, and then he merely backhanded it. The witch and angel watched with surprise as the bolt of magical energy shot back towards them. It struck the shield and knocked them off balance with a powerful explosion. Astreal fell from Rason's arms and screamed as she dropped towards the ground. She was instantly caught by Tsukune, the boy landing next to Apoch and setting the stunned witch down.
"You're done now too," he said in a commanding tone. Astreal nodded slowly as Tsukune smirked and looked over to see a fireball flying towards him. He growled then sent a fierce punch to it, the ball then being blasted off into the distance before exploding into a firestorm. Ahakon looked at Tsukune with shock as the vampire dashed to him in an instant.
"Game over," Tsukune said proudly. The mage just stared at him in disbelief then looked over towards where his fireball was deflected. He just nodded slowly then looked back to the vampire with wonder. Tsukune then turned around and dodged a punch from Gin, then jumped and kicked the wolf into a tumble. He followed through with a series of punches and blocks as Dark phased back into view in front of him. He continued to dodge and weave as Rason landed down next to him to throw a kick in towards the vampire. Tsukune grabbed it and spun the angel around, knocking Dark back, then throwing the blonde haired boy into a werewolf who was charging him. The girls watched with amazement as Tsukune had knocked them all back.
"Amazing. He's really doing it," Ruby said with wonder. Dark got back up and held up his hand, growling as black wisps flowed around him.
"Now comes the fun part," Felucia said confidently. Mizore nodded and watched her boyfriend carefully, this being the moment she was waiting for.
"What's he doing?" Luna asked curiously. Jovian watched with an amused smile as Tsukune looked around at the fighters on the field.
"He's going to put Tsukune to a real test," Kokoa said as the shadow demon roared out, a dark wave of energy rippling out from around him. As it washed over the other fighters they vanished from view as the black wisps surrounded them. Tsukune looked around as the field around him darkened as if being cast under a heavy shadow.
"He's cloaking everybody, now Tsukune will have to step up his game if he wants to fight them off," Kurumu said as she looked around the field cautiously. She could still feel the bond pulling towards where Rason was but other than that she had no idea where the others were. Mizore and Felucia tried to focus on the feel of their demon's essence while Moka and Kokoa looked around carefully. Tsukune remained still as he glanced around with his crimson eyes. He then glanced down to his lock.
'So far it's been holding, but I guess it's time to see just how much power I can really use.'
He growled as he focused his power. Now was the time to fight with his all, and he would hold absolutely nothing back. A massive amount of vampiric energy erupted around him and flew out towards the girls like a wave. As it hit Moka and Kokoa they cried out with ecstasy before dropping to their knees. The other girls looked to them as each vampire sister was screaming out with passion and trembling.
"Moka! Kokoa! Are you two ok?" Luna asked as she ran over to them. The two sisters were looking up with flushed faces and breathing heavily.
"Are they ok?" Jovian asked raising an eyebrow to them.
"I'd imagine so," Kurumu said with an amused smirk as she walked over to Moka. The pink haired vampire was trembling as she remained on her knees.
"What's wrong with them?" Luna asked worriedly.
"Tsukune's aura gets their motors running," Felucia said with a smirk.
"Looks like Tsukune's using a lot of power out there," Ruby said as she watched the two sisters tremble in the wave's wake.
"Dear… lord…" Moka breathed out.
"I think… I just…" Kokoa said before she collapsed down. Moka wavered then dropped forward, holding herself up with one hand while shakily looking out towards the field at her boyfriend.
"So how much is he using this time Moka?" Kurumu asked as she looked to the field. Everybody could feel the massive amount of power coming from the boy, but Kurumu was curious how Moka saw it.
"Please… Tsukune… do me," Moka breathed out before collapsing down.
"I'd say a lot," Mizore said simply.
"Wow," Luna said as she looked at the two vampires with a soft blush then out to the field. Jovian looked at the two girls with a curious glance then out to the field as well. Tsukune was looking around as the air around him had a reddish tint to it. His Holy Lock was rattling around wildly on his wrist as his power was surging around him. The ground around him was scorched and cracked apart as his power was causing the earth below him to break from the stress. And his eyes were looking around with a cold glare, the boy seeing the cloaked fighters clear as day. He saw the colorful essences of those cloaked as they moved around him.
"Can he fight them all off like he did before?" Yukari asked curiously.
Instantly two beams of magical energy shot towards Tsukune in a crisscross formation. They raced towards Tsukune at high speed as he kept his stare forward. Before impact he backhanded them both, the two shots of energy then flying back towards their points of origin. Two screams were heard as the blasts connected with bright walls of light. They both exploded violently as Apoch and Astreal phased back into view, the two girls tumbling back from the explosions. From behind Tsukune a bolt of lightning with fire swirling around it shot towards him. The girls on the sidelines watched with shock as Tsukune reached back and grabbed the bolt by the tip, then yanked back and cracked the pulsating energy like a whip. The electrical blast shot back and an explosion of sparks and flame erupted as Ahakon tumbled back smoking. He rolled to a stop with a loud groan as he became fully visible.
"He… he threw their magic back at them!" Kurumu shouted out with disbelief.
"How?" Ruby shouted out with amazement. Tsukune then began to dart around while punching and kicking around him at high speed. The ground around the boy started to rupture apart as rocks and debris shot away. The girls watched with wide eyes as Tsukune started to dance around at high speed. Wherever he darted to sparks and chunks of earth seemed to shoot off around him. The ground was being ravaged by something as he kept moving around with his aura flaring around him.
"What… is he…" Yukari said with confusion.
"Are you seeing this Mizore?" Felucia said with wonder. The girls looked over to see Mizore and Felucia staring with amazement.
"I… think so…" Mizore said as her eyes darted around quickly.
"Seeing what?" Kurumu asked confused.
"Wait… can you two see them?" Yukari asked amazed. The two girls slowly nodded as they seemed to look around Tsukune with wonder.
"You can? Really?" Ruby said in amazement.
"Just… barely," Felucia said as she watched something with wonder.
"I can almost see them moving around Tsukune… but they're too fast," Mizore said softly. She and the doll demon were watching with surprise as Tsukune was dodging and weaving around in the field, the boy moving about as three other faint outlines wavered and appeared around him.
"Really? I can't see anything," Luna said with wonder as she watched Tsukune move around quickly. He seemed to be punching and kicking around him fiercely while darting around at high speed.
"I can't tell which outline is who, but I can see them shift around a bit as they move. Tsukune… he's fighting off Dark, Rason, and Gin at the same time," Mizore said with wonder.
"I don't believe it. We can just barely see them, yet… yet…" Felucia said with disbelief.
"Tsukune can see them clear as day can't he? He's fighting them all off like they weren't cloaked at all," Jovian commented as she kept watching the fight. The girls looked to her, minus Felucia and Mizore who were locked onto the battle intently, and saw her watching the fight with a calm smile.
"It… appears so," Ruby said slowly.
'She doesn't seem too amazed by any of this.'
Moka and Kokoa moaned a bit and slowly sat up, the two girls looking out to the field with glazed eyes.
"What… what's happening?" Moka asked weakly.
"I can't… I can't see straight," Kokoa said as she wavered around.
"Tsukune's using his full power. But I bet you already knew that Moka," Kurumu said with a smirk at the girl.
"I can't even think straight… it's too much," Moka said as she held her head. For her the power resonating through her was completely overwhelming her senses. Even her inner self's mind was swimming, the proud noble inner self's train of thought having run off the rails completely from her mate's aura.
"I think… I just came…" Kokoa said before blacking out and dropping back down. For the younger sister the aura was simply too much and her senses was completely blown. Her mind was swimming with thoughts of the boy and his power, so much that the fact she had a new boyfriend wasn't registering with her at the moment.
"Oh my, I hope they'll be ok," Luna said softly.
"They'll be fine, better than fine actually," Kurumu said as she looked back out to Tsukune. His aura was indeed blanketing the area with a massive amount of vampiric energy, so much that she too could feel her senses being overloaded slightly.
"I can't… dammit I can't track them. They're moving too fast and we haven't had enough training to focus on Dark's essence yet," Felucia said frustrated. Mizore kept looking around as the outlines flickered and faded around the fast moving vampire. She couldn't tell which one was Dark and was having trouble keeping the outlines in her sights.
Out in the field Tsukune was moving around at high speed. His vampire aura was flaring around him as his eyes darted around to find his targets. He ducked and dodged around Rason's kick, the angel's bright lifeforce being seen by the vampire clear as day. He then spun around and jumped into a flying kick, the boy's attack being blocked by a darker shade of lifeforce behind him. As he recoiled from Dark's defense he spun around and delivered two quick punches towards a larger lifeforce behind him. Gin blocked both attacks and followed through with a powerful swipe. Tsukune's aura flared brightly as he grabbed the wolf's arm and swung him around. The wolf crashed into Dark and the two tumbled back while cloaked as Rason delivered a swift hit to the back of Tsukune's head. He stumbled forward before darting off to the side to dodge the angel's follow up attack.
As Tsukune continued his fight against the three cloaked monsters he glanced to his wrist. The lock was glowing with a deep red and was rattling around wildly.
'This is surely pushing it; I need to be quick if I'm going to ever use my power.'
He focused his power and blocked Rason's attack to him, the boy then grabbing the angel's arm. He yelled out as his vampire energy erupted around him like a storm. The lock on his wrist started vibrating as the links glowed with a searing hot red. In a flash Tsukune threw the angel over his head and in one smooth motion, jumped around and kicked the boy into a wild spin away. Rason flew off from the group and phased back into view as he crashed into the ground with a large explosion.
"Rason!" Kurumu cried out. Luna watched with terror as the boy smashed into the ground at high speed.
Tsukune then darted back and dashed towards Dark, literally sidestepping around the demon's kick before grabbing his leg and spinning him around. He slammed the boy into the ground then continued to spin around. He carved out the ground around him with the demon's body then hurled him away. Dark phased back into view as he crashed into the ground off to the side.
"Dark!" Felucia cried out. Mizore watched with wide eyes as her boyfriend slammed into the ground with large explosion.
"I have a feeling I know who is next," Ruby said looking back to Tsukune. Several bangs and shockwaves echoed out from the field before a werewolf phased back into view and flew off into the trees near the sidelines. The girls watched with amazement then looked back to Tsukune. He was looking around with a cool glare as the area around him scorched from the power surge. He smirked confidently then looked back to the group.
Moka stared at her boyfriend with great love and lust, the boy's aura captivating her and enticing her completely. Tsukune smiled at her confidently and waved, then looked to his wrist with a sudden surprised expression. The aura around him quickly died out as he looked to his lock with wide eyes.
"Tsukune?" Moka said wearily as she tried to stand.
"What happened?" Ruby asked worriedly as the boy continued to stare at his wrist.
"I think he may have pushed it too far," Jovian said simply. Yukari looked at Tsukune with wonder then to Ahakon. The boy was walking back to the group with a dazed expression.
"Wow… how did he… do that?" he asked himself as he wavered a bit. Yukari smiled and ran towards him.
"Ahakon! Are you ok?" she called out. The boy looked at her and smiled.
"Yeah, I'm o-" he started before the young witch tackled him to the ground. All that was heard was his muffled voice of surprise and her wild kissing as she had the boy locked into another embrace. As his arms flailed around him the witch sisters walked up to them.
"I think he needs air Ms. Yukari," Apoch said flatly.
"Yes, please let him back up," Astreal said with an annoyed tone. The young girl looked up to them while still holding the boy down with her hug.
"Mind your own business, can't you see me and my boyfriend are busy here?" she snapped back. The sisters looked at her with dull expressions then back down to the boy with raised eyebrows.
"Then can we at least make a suggestion before we 'mind our own business'?" Astreal asked with a smirk.
"What?" Yukari barked out.
"You may want to move your knee," Apoch said with a soft smirk. Yukari blinked and looked down. Her knee was up between Ahakon's legs, all the way up to the crotch. She stared at it for a moment before slowly looking up to the boy, seeing that he was cringing as she held him down. She gasped and jumped up with fear as she realized she had kneed him in the crotch as she tackled him to the ground. The boy held his hands down to his sore bits as he tried to breathe again.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry Ahakon! Are you ok?" Yukari cried out worriedly.
"My my Ms. Yukari, that wasn't very nice," Apoch said with a slight giggle.
"Yes, if he were our boyfriend still we certainly wouldn't hurt him like that," Astreal said with a smirk as the two started to walk back to the others. Yukari looked to them with frustration then back down to her boyfriend with worry.
"I'm ok… really…" he squeaked out as he tried to get back up. Yukari helped him back to his feet and held him up with his arm around her.
"I'm so sorry, really. It was an accident," she said worriedly.
'Oh no, why does this keep happening to me?'
As she started slowly walking the trembling mage back to the group Mizore and Felucia had run out towards Dark, the shadow demon having gotten up and stretching out slightly.
"Dark? Are you ok?" Mizore asked worriedly. The boy blinked and pulled his player out of his pocket. He sighed as he dropped the crushed device to the ground. Mizore looked to the device, then back up to him as she smiled softly. She pulled another player out from her sweater pocket and held it out for him.
"I thought that might happen my love. Here, it's one you let me borrow before," she said softly. The boy looked at it then smiled gently at her.
"Yeah, I'm definitely marrying you," he said softly. The girl blushed and looked down timidly as he took the player. Felucia looked at him with timid eyes then down.
'I should have thought of that. Dammit.'
Mizore smiled at her demon as he put his earbuds back in clipped his player to his jeans. She was still amazed how much she had fallen in love with the boy who was so distant when he first came here. The snow girl walked over and hugged her boyfriend gently while looking up at him. He held her gently as he gazed into her eyes.
"I was trying to follow your movements out there, but I couldn't keep up," she said softly. She blinked then glanced down to her lollipop.
'Whoops.'
"That's ok, I didn't expect you to fully grasp it overnight," he said calmly. The girl looked to him with surprise.
"You… understood me?" she said with wide eyes. He glanced to Felucia and then back to her.
"I haven't started my music yet. I want to know what's going on between you and Felucia," he said simply. Mizore jumped a bit at that then realized Dark was holding her securely in front of him.
"Um, what do you mean?" she asked softly.
"Are you really going to lie to me again and say nothing is going on?" he asked with a raised eyebrow. The snow girl looked at him with worry then over to Felucia. The doll demon looked at her timidly then down.
"Well, it's nothing really Dark," Felucia said as she glanced away.
"Comrade," Dark said sternly while glancing to her. She jumped and looked at him nervously before looking to Mizore.
"Well…" the doll demon said softly.
Rason was getting up and rubbing his head with a weak smile.
"Yeah… that's right. He hits like a freakin' freight train," he said with a chuckle. Suddenly his world went dark and oxygen free.
"Rason! Are you ok? I hope you're not too hurt my lovely Destined One! I was so worried when Tsukune hit you like that. I'm so sorry my love, is there anything I can do to help? Oh my poor angel, that Tsukune was being a brute out there wasn't he? What can I do to make you feel better? I'll do anything you want my sexy angel," Kurumu said with a loving embrace. She blinked then looked over to see Luna staring at her with wide eyes of disbelief.
"How do you never notice?" Luna cried out as she pointed to the boy. Kurumu tilted her head curiously then looked down. Rason had passed out and was limp, the boy's face lodged in her breasts as he wavered in her grasp. She then looked back to Luna with wonder.
"Oh," she said simply. She then screamed and started shaking the angel back and forth with a worried expression.
"Rason! Wake up! I'm so sorry, please wake up! Rason! Rason!" she cried out as she shook the boy back and forth. Luna watched the girl try to bring her boyfriend back to his senses with shock.
'She's going to kill my angel one of these days, I just know it.'
After a while the boy shot up with a surprised expression.
Wow… what just happened?" he said startled. He blinked and looked to his girlfriend who was looking at him nervously.
"Ah," he said flatly as she backed up a step and looked him over.
"I'm so sorry; I get a little carried away sometimes. Are you ok?" she asked with concern. The boy smiled and nodded while rubbing the back of his head.
"Yeah, I'm fine really. I'm sorta used to it-" he started before he was instantly on the ground with a butterfly girl on top of him. Luna's wings had extended out and she was staring at him with a twisted smile while laughing crazily.
"YOU'RE ALIVE! YOU'RE ALIVE! OH JOY! MY ANGEL ISN'T DEAD YET!" she shouted out before laughing wildly. Rason just nodded nervously while the girl looked at him with way too much love. Kurumu stared at her with shock then growled at the crazed chronofly.
"Get off him Luna, I told you before to stop-" she started as she tried to pry the girl off, the succubus instantly appearing back a few steps as Luna was holding her arms off to each side. The butterfly girl had a serious expression as she stared into Kurumu's eyes.
"You need to stop nearly killing my angel Kurumu," Luna said sternly as she held the surprised girl in place. Kurumu looked down to Rason and where Luna was a split second ago then back to the butterfly girl who was looking at her with narrowed eyes.
'You've got to be kidding me, now she's able to stop me from prying her off my boyfriend!'
"Um, let's not fight again girls, ok?" Rason said nervously with a weak smile, the boy getting back to his feet and dusting himself off. Luna let go of Kurumu and nodded at him with a calm smile.
"Whatever you ask of me my angel," she said elegantly. Kurumu looked at her with disbelief then to Rason with worry. She growled then looked to Luna with discontent.
'He's my angel you freakin' psycho.'
Over by where Moka was struggling to stand back up Gin had shifted back to his human form and was looking down at his sleeping girlfriend. He sighed and slowly kneeled down, the boy then picking Kokoa up into his arms bridal style and standing back up. She was out cold with a blush still on her face. Gin looked at her with a gentle gaze then back out to Tsukune who was walking towards them. The wolf gave a dull glare at the boy in frustration.
'Great, how am I supposed to compete with that? He made Kokoa faint with nothing but his monster aura.'
As he looked back down to his sleeping vampire Moka finally stood back up and shook her head.
"Wow… that was… intense," she said in a slight daze.
'Intense? I lost my mind… from here! I had no idea his aura was so… so…'
'Massive?'
'That doesn't even scratch the surface. It's unreal how strong he's become.'
'He does have both our blood and Kokoa's inside of him. Plus with her overcharge being used the second time he has who knows how much energy flowing through him.'
'I hope that lock can hold up properly now.'
'You and me both.'
She smiled brightly as Tsukune walked over to them, the boy looking at his wrist with a dull gaze.
"Let me guess Tsukune, you cracked it again," Jovian said with a giggle. Gin and Ruby looked at the boy as he nodded in silence.
"Oh no, really?" Moka said worriedly.
"How bad is it?" Gin asked carefully.
"Five links," Tsukune said simply. The group, minus Jovian, jumped at that.
"Five?" Ruby said in terror.
"You're kidding right? How?" Gin said with shock. Kokoa started to stir in his arms as the group looked at Tsukune closely.
"It kept cracking whenever I pushed myself too far. I think I have a rough idea of how much is needed to cause it to break, but I'm not completely sure yet," he said looking at it.
"Well you were using a lot of monster energy out there Tsukune, I'm not surprised," Jovian said walking over to the boy.
"Yeah, you don't seem very surprised at all," Ruby commented raising an eyebrow to the girl. Jovian examined the lock carefully; sure enough five of the links were cracked.
"You must learn to control yourself properly like Hokuto did, otherwise it's possible for you to shatter them all before I can help you," she said calmly. She held her hands over the chain and the multicolor glow appeared around the seal. As the group watched with wonder the witch looked at the lock carefully.
'Five more links… that means eleven are going to break when my spell wears off. That's almost half of them.'
As the links started to restore from her magic Kokoa slowly opened her eyes.
"What… what happened?" she said in a daze. Gin looked down to her and smiled softly.
"Seems Tsukune was a bit much for you," he said gently. He then glanced away with a dull expression as Kokoa looked at him curiously. She blinked then looked over to Tsukune as Jovian was working on his lock.
"Master?" she asked softly. Tsukune glanced to her and smirked.
"Kokoa," he said shaking his head gently. Kokoa blinked and nodded, then saw Gin was holding her. She looked up at him with wonder as he glanced back to her.
"You ok to stand now?" he asked softly. She nodded and he slowly set her down. Kokoa looked at the boy with a curious eye then over to Tsukune.
"Wait… did it crack again?" she asked worriedly.
"Yes, but luckily Jovian is able to fix it," Moka said with relief.
"Good thing too, five links cracked from that fight," Ruby said worriedly.
"Five?" Kokoa shouted out in disbelief.
"Five what?" Apoch and Astreal asked in unison as they walked over.
"Five links were cracked from Tsukune's power," Moka said as Jovian stepped back from the boy. He looked to the seal, all the links looking as good as new again.
"Thanks Jovian, I'll have to get a better feel for that," he said with a laugh. The witch nodded with a calm smile.
"Yes, that would be most wise Tsukune," she said softly. She glanced to the lock again then back to the boy.
'If he cracks them all during his training here tonight, they'll all shatter tomorrow when the spell ends. Master may be upset with me if that happens.'
"Are you two ok?" Ruby asked the witch sisters curiously. They looked at her then to Tsukune, both remaining silent. The boy chuckled and looked to them with a warm smile.
"Sorry if I hurt you earlier, are you ok?" he asked kindly. They smiled softly and nodded.
"Yes, we're fine," Apoch said softly.
"I take it you have control over your power now?" Astreal asked curiously.
"Sort of, I need to work on my feel for my limits though so I don't crack any links again. Still, it's nice to have Jovian here, I don't know what we would have done without her," Tsukune said looking to the new witch. She giggled and waved a hand in front of her.
"Please Tsukune, it's nothing really. I'm just glad to help a real hero like yourself," she said kindly. She then looked over to Astreal with a wink.
"Glad you're ok too cutie pie," she said with a purr. The group looked to the blonde haired witch as she looked at Jovian nervously.
"Um… thank you…" she said softly. Apoch looked at Jovian with surprise then to her sister.
"See that Astreal, you have somebody else to chase after other than my Ahakon," Yukari said with a laugh as she helped Ahakon walk over to the group.
"Ahakon, are you ok?" Moka asked worriedly.
"Oh no, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you like that," Tsukune said with worry as the mage glanced around at everybody. Ahakon stood upright again as Yukari looked at him with concern.
"I'm fine, really," he said with a weak smile.
"You didn't do that to him Mr. Tsukune," Apoch said with a smirk.
"It was Ms. Yukari," Astreal said with a bite. The group turned to the young witch as she looked down in shame.
"It was an accident, honest," she said worriedly. Ahakon waved his hands in front of him with a weak smile.
"Really, don't worry about it. These things happen to guys. I'm ok, I promise," he said gently.
"What things happen?" Kokoa asked puzzled.
"Ms. Yukari kicked him in the crotch," Apoch said smugly.
"Yes, the poor boy," Astreal said with a worried tone as she looked to the young mage. The group looked at Yukari with surprise as she looked around at them while waving her hands in front of her.
"I didn't mean to, it was an accident!" she cried out.
"What was an accident?" Kurumu asked as she, Luna, and Rason walked over.
"Ms. Yukari hit Ahakon where it hurts the most," Apoch said with a bite at the young witch.
"Yes, the poor boy was in such pain from it," Astreal said worriedly. Kurumu looked at Yukari with puzzlement then jumped with surprise.
"You hit him in the nuts?" she said in disbelief. Rason looked at Yukari then to Ahakon with an expression of sympathy.
"It was an accident, really!" Yukari shouted out with tears forming.
"Accident or not you hurt him," Apoch said simply.
"Not very caring for a girlfriend," Astreal said in agreement. Ruby looked to the two sisters carefully then to Yukari.
"I'm fine, really. Just forget about it," Ahakon said looking around with a wave of his hands. Yukari looked to him with worry then down.
"I'm sorry Ahakon," she said softly. She blinked then looked up with surprise as Ahakon had grabbed her hand gently.
"Enough of that. I'm fine Yukari," he said calmly. The girl nodded slowly then looked down with a soft smile. The witch sisters watched her with dull glares then away. Ruby caught their glances and looked back to the young witch curiously.
"Are you ok Rason? Sorry if I hit you too hard out there," Tsukune said with a weak smile. The angel shook his head and smirked at the boy.
"Nah, I'm fine. Nice hit though, I see you still got it," he said with a laugh. Tsukune nodded and looked to his wrist.
"Yeah, but I cracked five links in doing so. I need to get a better feel for my limits. I can't rely on Jovian for the rest of my life," he said as he examined his newly fixed lock.
"Wow, five links? I didn't think you were pushing yourself so hard out there. Still, at least it's fixed. Just keep at your practices with it, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it," Rason said confidently.
"Yeah, and with the way you were moving out there I'm sure Kuyou will be toast in seconds flat with all of us here," Kurumu said with a determined expression. Luna smiled at Rason and nodded, having complete faith in her angel alone, and hoping she could spare the group any fighting if she could control her own power properly. Moka walked over and clung to Tsukune's arm with a loving gaze up at the boy.
"Oh Tsukune, your power out there… it was unbelievable," she said in a dreamy state.
"Oh Moka…" he said with loving eyes.
"Oh Tsukune…"
"Oh Moka…"
"Oh Tsukune…"
"Are they alright?" Jovian asked curiously.
"Yeah, they'll be fine in a few minutes," Kurumu said with a smirk and shaking her head amused at the couple.
"It's something they do. Pay them no mind," Ruby said with a shrug. Kokoa smirked at her big sister's antics with her master then glanced to Gin. The boy was looking down with a dull gaze as he stood there. Kokoa frowned slightly then walked over to him.
"You fought bravely out there today, I was impressed with you," she said softly. Gin smirked and glanced to her.
"I don't know how you would have noticed with Tsukune's aura clouding your vision," he said simply. Kokoa jumped back a bit at that then looked down with worry.
"I'm sorry… I couldn't help it… vampire energy reacts with us…" she said softly. She cringed slightly and glanced back to Tsukune, the boy still stuck in a loop with his girlfriend. She knew Gin was jealous of the power Tsukune had over her but wasn't sure what to say.
"Oh my, I didn't see that coming," Jovian said with an amused smile. The group looked over to see Moka latched onto Tsukune's neck, the vampire squealing with delight as the boy smiled gently and held her closely.
"We all did," Kurumu said with a snicker.
"Yeah, it's what they do," Yukari said with a shrug.
"I didn't see it coming either," Luna said with wonder as she watched Moka drink her precious blood from Tsukune. Kokoa looked at them with wonder then to Gin. The boy was watching Tsukune with a dull gaze.
'I need to become stronger; I can't let this guy show me up now that I finally have a girl all to myself.'
He jumped with surprise as he saw Kokoa leap up to him. The girl wrapped her arms around his neck and bit down, latching onto him as well. The group looked over with surprise as she started to drink his blood. Even Moka stopped her feeding to watch with wonder at her sister's act. Gin looked at her with surprise then held the girl as she held him around from the neck. Her feet weren't touching the ground as he held her up gently from around the waist. After a moment she let go and looked into his eyes with a caring expression.
"I'll only drink your blood from now on boyfriend. It does have a bit of a… bite to it," she said with a wink. Gin blinked and looked at her with wonder. She smiled and looked down gently.
"If… that's ok with you Gin," she said softly. She looked back up to the boy timidly as he stared at her speechless. After a moment he smiled and nodded.
"Anything for you Kokoa," he said kindly. He set the girl down and she hugged him from around the waist, the girl smiling contently. Gin smiled a bit amusedly then looked to Tsukune. The vampire boy nodded at his friend as he held his own girlfriend closely.
"Hey guys, I hate to interrupt this tender moment and all, but…" Rason said pointing to something. Everybody looked over to see Mizore and Felucia hugging Dark tightly. The boy seemed to have a blank expression still as each girl was holding onto him, the girls burying their faces into his shoulders.
"What the…" Gin said as he scratched his head.
"Mizore is really sharing Dark now?" Yukari said disbelief. Luna looked to Kurumu with wonder, the succubus glancing to her and shaking her head.
"Don't even think about it," she said sternly. Luna nodded slowly then looked back over to Dark.
"What's going on with them?" Moka asked curiously. After a moment Mizore and Felucia broke their embrace with the shadow demon and were talking to him with worried expressions.
"What are they talking about?" Kokoa asked curiously.
"I'm not sure, but something is up if Mizore let Felucia hug Dark like that," Kurumu said in wonder. The group watched them talk for a while before the trio walked over to them. Dark glanced around to see everybody looking at them puzzled.
"Um… buddy?" Rason asked looking from the doll demon to the snow maiden, then to the shadow demon with a confused expression.
"What was that about Mizore?" Kurumu asked curiously.
"Are you really sharing Dark with Felucia now?" Ruby asked with wonder. Mizore shook her head and looked away a bit embarrassed.
"Then… why…" Kokoa asked looking to the doll demon.
"It's none of your business. We just… had to talk about something," Felucia said stubbornly.
"Talk about something? You were hugging Dark with Mizore. What were you talking about that involved doing that?" Rason asked curiously. Felucia glanced away as all eyes turned to Dark.
"Is everything ok?" Tsukune asked worriedly.
"You tell me. Did your seal crack during that fight?" the demon said simply. Tsukune blinked and glanced to his lock.
"Yeah… five links. But Jovian already fixed it," he said softly.
"Don't change the subject dude, what is going on here?" Rason asked puzzled. Kurumu looked at Mizore carefully, the snow maiden glancing to the group then away again.
"Are you sure you're ok?" Kurumu asked the snow girl gently. Mizore nodded and looked down.
"We're fine, geez. We just had to talk about something private," Felucia barked out. The group glanced to each other then back to the trio.
"Um… ok then, as long as everything is ok with you," Tsukune said worriedly.
"Uh uh, no way dude. If you start letting both of them hang on you like that then Luna is going to expect the same thing with me. Explain," Rason said with annoyance. Luna glanced to the angel then back to the demon with a raised eyebrow. Dark just looked at him with a blank expression while Mizore and Felucia glanced over to Kurumu and Luna.
"It's a private matter between my wife and comrade," Dark said sternly. The group looked at him curiously then to the two girls. Mizore and Felucia glanced to each other then sighed.
"Please let it go you guys," Mizore said softly.
"Yeah, just back off," Felucia said sternly.
"Well, I guess if it's a private matter we have no right to pry," Moka said softly.
"Alright, as long as you guys are ok now," Tsukune said with a slight smile. Rason sighed and glanced to Luna.
"Please don't think anything of this," he said worriedly. The butterfly girl looked at him with wonder then giggled.
"I'll try, but no promises. It just gives me hope for the future," she said with a smile and a wink. Kurumu flinched at that then ran over to Mizore.
"On second thought, no way. Spill it frosty, what's going on here? I'm not sharing my boyfriend just because you chose to," she said sternly.
"I'm not sharing my boyfriend," Mizore said as she seemed to be fighting back tears. Felucia looked to her with sympathetic eyes as everybody looked at the snow girl with worry.
"Mizore," Kurumu said softly as she saw her friend struggling not to break down. The snow girl looked down then to her friend.
"I… I never wanted…" she said softly before she started to cry. She clung to Dark's arm with a whimper as the boy looked to her with worry.
"It's fine Mizore, it doesn't change anything. I assure you," he said gently.
"What doesn't change anything?" Gin asked puzzled.
"Yeah Mizore, it's ok. It didn't mean anything, right?" Felucia asked gently.
"What didn't mean anything?" Kokoa asked curiously at the snow girl.
"Mizore, don't let it get to you, I promise it doesn't change how I feel about you," Dark said softly.
"What doesn't change how he feels about you?" Yukari asked puzzled. The snow girl trembled a bit and shook her head.
"C'mon, we'll just put it behind us," Felucia said worriedly.
"Put what behind you?" Luna asked curiously.
"Kano made us, it's not your fault," Felucia said with concern.
"What did Kano do with you two?" Ruby asked worriedly.
"I can't just act like it never happened," Mizore said shakily.
"Like what never happened?" Tsukune asked curiously.
"What's going on here Dark? What happened with Mizore and Felucia? What did Kano do to them?" Ahakon asked puzzled.
"That bastard made Felucia go down on me!" Mizore shouted out before crying. The group jumped with shock and stared at her with wide eyes as she clung to Dark with tears falling down from her face.
"Oh my… god…" Moka said with shock.
"He did WHAT?" Kokoa shouted out disgusted.
"Holy shit!" Rason shouted out.
Yukari and Ahakon looked at Mizore with shock then to Felucia. The doll demon was looking down ashamed as the group stood there in silence. After a moment she slowly nodded.
"He made me… eat her out," she said quietly. The group stared at her with shock then looked to Mizore.
"Oh god… Mizore, I'm so sorry," Kurumu said with remorse. Dark held his girl closely then glared around at the group. They all looked at him with worry then to Mizore with remorse.
"Sorry… we didn't mean to…" Rason said softly.
"It's not your fault, it was Kano's. The bastard used us, he had us pose for him in so many fucked up ways. Then… before he let us go… he wanted one more erotic picture," Felucia said shakily.
"That god damned asshole! I wish he was here again so I could tear him to pieces!" Kokoa roared out.
"That dirty pervert, he deserved to die," Apoch and Astreal said in unison with anger. Luna nodded and looked down with frustration. She was glad she killed the sick bastard, and was wishing she could have made him suffer more for his crimes.
"I never wanted… I didn't mean to…" Mizore cried out as she sobbed into Dark's chest.
"Didn't mean to what?" Moka asked worriedly. Felucia looked around then down while remaining silent. Mizore choked back her cries and glanced to the group.
"I… I…" she said shakily.
"My dear girl, did you enjoy it?" Jovian asked with a raised eyebrow. The group looked to her with surprise then back to Mizore. The snow girl trembled a bit then buried her face back into her boyfriend's chest.
"Yes," she breathed out. She clutched the boy's shirt and started to cry again. Felucia sighed and nodded.
"She moaned during, I… got her to finish," she said softly. She then looked to Mizore with worry.
"But it doesn't mean anything Mizore, really," she said with concern. The snow girl shook her head.
"I got pleasure from somebody that wasn't my husband; I had an orgasm from somebody who wasn't him! I wasn't faithful to him!" she cried out. Dark held her closely and spoke gently into her ear.
"You didn't betray me. You were used by Kano, I don't blame you at all," he said softly.
"He's right, you didn't do anything wrong," Jovian said with a smile. Mizore sobbed a bit then glanced to her.
"How would you know?" she said as she trembled.
"I heard about what happened with this Kano student. He used you all for his own sick gain. Since he made you do it against your will you didn't choose to betray your boyfriend. And let's be honest, a girl's going to get pleasure from that, even if she doesn't want it. Your body reacted how it should have, that doesn't mean you're unfaithful," Jovian reasoned with a calm smile. Mizore looked to her curiously then to Dark. He nodded and smiled softly at her.
"You're still my perfect little snow bunny, and are as pure as freshly fallen snow," he said gently. The girl blushed slightly then looked to Felucia.
"I wasn't trying to blackmail you with that to get a chance to be near Dark or anything like that, you could have said no and I wouldn't have pressed it further. I'm sorry I caused you more pain." the doll demon said sincerely.
"Felucia," Mizore said softly. The doll demon smiled softly at her and nodded.
"Comrade," she said kindly, the snow maiden looking at her with a bit of wonder in response.
"So that's why you let her hang around Dark," Rason said looking at the three.
"Mizore I'm sorry, I didn't mean to push that out of you," Kurumu said worriedly. The snow girl looked around at her friends then down.
"We're not judging you or Felucia for what Kano made you do, really. We just want you to be ok," Tsukune said with gentle smile. Mizore glanced to him then looked to Dark. He removed her lollipop and smiled gently at her.
"You are still my loyal wife, don't ever think otherwise," he said before pulling her into a kiss. The girl sighed happily and closed her eyes, letting the demon hold her while kissing her lovingly. Felucia smirked and looked up while the group smiled at them as they stood there. When the kiss ended Mizore smiled at her boyfriend with gentle eyes.
"Thank you Dark," she said with a blush. The boy nodded then put her candy back in her mouth. He then looked to Felucia with a blank expression.
"Felucia," he said simply. The girl jumped a bit and looked to him timidly.
"I'm fine with you being around me still. However, I must insist that you keep your mouth off of my wife, she belongs to me," he said flatly. The doll demon blinked then smiled softly.
"Anything you say Dark," she said gently. Mizore smiled softly and then buried her face into his chest again. She then glanced over to Felucia, the girl looking at her with a soft smile before glancing to Dark. After a moment Mizore smiled and nodded. The doll demon squealed with delight and raced over, promptly grabbing hold of his other arm. Dark looked at the doll demon for a moment then over to Mizore. The snow girl looked up and shrugged while taking her candy out to speak.
"I suppose I can be a little nicer to her. We are a bit closer now after all," she said simply before putting her candy back in and holding onto him tightly. Dark just blinked then glanced to Rason.
"Pimp," the angel said pointing to him.
"You're dead," Dark said flatly. The group chuckled at that as the two girls held the demon securely. Mizore sighed happily and looked up to her boyfriend as Felucia was looking down bashfully.
Luna looked at the three then to Rason curiously.
"Um, Rason?" she asked softly. Kurumu jumped a bit then growled at the girl.
"I said before don't get any ideas," she said sternly. Luna shook her head and looked to the angel with caring eyes.
"I wasn't going to say anything like that. I was just-"
"I mean it Luna, stop trying to get closer to my boyfriend. I'm already letting you hang around him enough as it is," Kurumu barked out. The butterfly girl sighed and looked to her with a tired expression.
"I was merely going to ask if I could use the field to train now too. I'm not trying to steal your boyfriend away from you Kurumu, I've already told you that," she said with a slight bite at the end. Kurumu blinked and looked to Rason curiously. She then looked to Luna with a bit of remorse.
"Oh. Sorry about that. Yeah, we can use the field now," she said softly.
"Thank you," Luna said flatly with a dull gaze at the girl.
"That's right, we need to practice our skills too," Felucia said looking to Mizore. The snow girl nodded and looked up to her boyfriend.
"Let's go beloved. Our turn to play," she said softly. The boy blinked at her and tilted his head. She glanced down to his music player and then to him.
'Oh yeah… he turned it back on…'
"I'm going to insist we wait until later tonight for that," he said simply. The snow girl blushed then smiled softly.
"You know, I could help out with anything you two might be planning," Felucia said innocently. Mizore glanced to her then smiled happily.
"Well, since you offered Felucia…" she said with a playful tone. The doll demon blinked and looked at her curiously.
THUNK!
Felucia then dropped down with an ice shard through her head. The group blinked and looked back to Mizore who was staring at Felucia with a blank expression.
"Mine," she said simply.
"Well, glad to see they're back to normal. Mostly," Tsukune said with a laugh. Moka giggled and looked at her boyfriend with a bright smile.
"How about if I train with you personally boyfriend? I think it could be fun," she said with a loving gaze.
'I think I should start off with him.'
'Wait your turn.'
'You can't be serious; you always spend the most time with him. This time let me start with him.'
'Not on your life.'
"Sure, why not Moka. It'll be great to practice with you," Tsukune said with a gentle smile.
"Oh Tsukune…" she said dreamily.
"Oh Moka…"
"Oh Tsukune…"
"Oh Moka…"
"And there they go again," Yukari said with a giggle. She looked to her boyfriend with wonder and smiled timidly.
"Say Ahakon? How about we practice again together, you still have to teach me about the elements," she said softly. The boy nodded and took her hand.
"Sure, let's get to it," he said as he led her off. The girl sighed happily then glanced back behind her, the two witch sisters watching her with dull glares. Yukari smirked proudly then walked off with her boyfriend. The sisters sighed then glanced to each other.
"We should improve as well sister," Apoch said softly.
"Yes, I think that would be wise," Astreal said with a nod. The two glanced to Ahakon then towards a vacant part of the field.
"Let's get started, we need to increase our strength. Ms. Yukari won't be able to protect Ahakon properly," Astreal said as they walked off.
Kokoa glanced to her boyfriend and smiled arrogantly.
"What do you say Gin? Up for sparring with me again?" she challenged with a raised eyebrow. The boy chuckled and then shifted to his werewolf form, the girl watching with wonder as he turned into his larger self.
"Sure, anything to get you under my paw after all, right?" he said with a smirk. The girl blinked then smiled at him amusedly.
"You won't be so lucky this time," she said arrogantly. The wolf shrugged then walked off towards a section of the field.
"We'll see about that," he said proudly. The girl watched him walk off, the larger muscular form of the boy seeming to be more prominent to the girl now. She blinked then realized that she was really staring at him for a moment with a blush growing on her face.
'Wow… I really am… and for him…'
She smiled then raced off after him while Ruby watched the groups split up for their exercises. Tsukune and Moka were walking towards one spot, Yukari and Ahakon towards another, Mizore and Dark were heading towards their own section, and Kokoa and Gin were taking another. The witch sisters had walked off towards another part of the field to practice, the two being very close to Ahakon and Yukari's area. Kurumu and Rason were walking off with Luna, the two curious to how the chronofly will practice her magic, and Felucia was slowly getting up as the ice shard was being split into two from her head wound healing up.
"Ok… maybe I had that coming," the doll demon said dryly.
"You think?" Ruby said flatly while raising an eyebrow at her. She then glanced to Jovian who was watching Felucia get up curiously. The new witch then looked out towards Tsukune with a calm gaze. Ruby glanced to her with wonder.
'She doesn't seem to be fazed by anything with us. She really is calm all the time.'
Off near the edge of the field Kurumu and Rason were watching Luna gazing around at the trees curiously. They all had their wings extended as Luna examined her surroundings.
"So Luna, how are you going to practice anyway?" Rason asked curiously. The girl smiled and glanced to him.
"Well, our magic is best controlled while we're shifted into time, so I'll start with some simple exercises first," she said calmly.
"So… we're not actually going to see anything then, right?" Kurumu said with a small laugh. Luna giggled and looked ahead at the trees.
"Well, you won't see me move anyway," she replied.
"That's right, from what you told us before your attacks work best while you're shifted. Just don't push yourself too much ok?" Rason said worriedly. The butterfly girl nodded and looked forward with a focused expression.
"I promise," she said gently. The girl focused her magic, the world shifting to a dull color around her. Everything stopped in the field as the chronofly shifted into that moment in time. Sound was no longer heard as everything remained motionless.
'Ok, stay focused.'
She looked at the trees in front of her, the girl eyeing her targets for her attacks carefully.
'You can do this; you're a chronofly after all. And Rason is watching… sort of. I have to show him I have this under control.'
She smiled confidently as she prepared to launch forward at the trees with her swiping attack.
'I'll protect you Rason. I'll make sure you and all our friends remain safe. I have the power to do so, I just know I do.'
"Getting ready for battle?" a voice called out from behind her. She blinked and jumped around with surprise at actually hearing a sound, though it wasn't just the sound that startled her. She tried to speak back in surprise but her words could not be heard.
"What's wrong Luna? Aren't you glad to see me again?" the other figure asked. Luna stared with wide eyes at the sight. It was a chronofly that was her height, having short black hair and one red eye, the left eye being covered with a black eye patch. She had her butterfly wings extended out behind her, the darker colored purple wings having black trimmings with bright red spots. She wore an elegant dress that had small tears and rips on it, the white dress having black trimmings. Luna stared with disbelief and shock at seeing the girl standing there, the girl who was supposed to have been dead.
"Hello dear sister," Falla said with a chuckle. The chronofly brought up her hand to attack with a chopping motion and smiled wickedly at Luna.
"Long live the queen," she said coldly, then swung her attack towards Luna's head.
