I forgot to mention in the last chapter that the song that Shizuko sang was the last opening to Shugo Chara Party, and also, the new character we're gonna meet today is not my OC, she is actually khodijah98's OC, so no credits go for me for this character... Hope you guys like this chap! :)

Chapter 36

A paper flew over to us. I jumped, and caught it. "And now for the grand finale: my precious venom snake."

"What the hell is that?!" Ryuu asked, pointing at a flying snake, which looked a lot like Akumu.

"Majyo!" Emi exclaimed.

"Not Majyo. She's much, much more negative..." Kina muttered.

It charged at me, hissing. I dodged it just in time, with it barely touching me.

It hissed again, and then opened its mouth, wide. "Hateful Gas!" it hissed, as a gas emerged from its mouth.

As the gas wavered over to me, I began to feel dizzy. I couldn't keep my balance, and fell down, with Jack catching me. "Are you ok, my dear princess?"

I nodded, blushing. "I'm fine," I muttered, getting up, only to fall down again. "Or maybe not..." I muttered, feeling even more dizzy.

Jack smiled, and kissed me on the forehead. "Leave it to me, Shi-zu-zu-chan."

"It's Shizuko! Shi-zu-ko! Shizuko!" I protested.

Jack smirked, and poked me on the nose. "Silly little princess, you're hurt. Don't talk, just watch."

I blush, and looked away. "O-Ok..."

Jack nodded. "Pick a card," he said, spreading out a deck of cards. "Any card!" he shouted, throwing out the cards at the venom snake.

The snake dodged it, and it hissed, in Akumu's voice, "I hate everyone. Shizuko, Ryuu, Jack, Kyo, Kurai, the Knights, everyone!"

"Why do you hate us?!" Ryuu shouted. "What did we do?"

"You know what you did," it hissed. "You don't even trust me, and the Knights stole my best friend from me, and Kurai... THAT *BEEP* BETRAYED ME FOR THOSE STUPID KNIGHTS!"

"Are you stupid?" Kurai muttered coldly, appearing out of nowhere. She was in her transformation, and she clenched her fists. "I didn't betray you, I just followed my heart!"

The snake stopped, dumbstruck. "R-really?"

"Of course, you idiot!" Kurai shouted.

The snake hardened. "Liar!" it hissed, charging at Kurai. "Death Coil!" It coiled around her, squeezing her until veins appeared on her forehead.

"Is that all you've got?" Kurai snarled.

"Acidic Bite!" it hissed, biting her hard on the shoulder. Kurai growled, and then was knocked out unconscious.

"Kurai!" I shouted.

A girl, who had a pair of black wings, jumped up. She dressed up like a lolita and had a hood that hid her face. She held onto a scythe. "Death Slice!" she shouted, swinging her scythe at the snake. It let go of Kurai, hissing.

"Don't you think you're going a bit far?!" the girl growled. "No matter how much you hate someone, you can't just let out your anger like that!"

The snake paused, and then returned to its egg, which spit out Akumu and turned into an X egg, then into a regular egg, then finally flew into Akumu.

"There's an enemy is after you, Shizuko. Be careful," the girl warned.

"Who are you?" Jack asked.

"Call me... the Devil," she replied.

"Are you an enemy or an alias?" Ryuu demanded.

"Who knows... it's up to you to decide," she said, jumping off and leaving.
