Lantis, Eagle, and Hikaru stared at Tara. Tara had was holding another fan in her
left hand and a boomerang in her right hand. "Well lets see who's ready to die?" said
Tara looking evilly at the three. Hikaru walked up toward Tara and pulled out her sword.
"Sorry but we're not going to die" said Hikaru. Lantis and Eagle watched the two stare
each other down. Then Tara threw her boomerang at Hikaru. Hikaru jumped out of the
way but the boomerang flew and hit eagle knocking him down. "EAGLE" shouted
Hikaru looking back at him. "I'm fine" he said looking up. Blood dripped down from
Eagle's lower lip. Lantis help Eagle up. Suddenly a blast hit Hikaru making her fall back.
"Never take your eyes of you opponent" said Tara fanning herself. Hikaru slowly
got up but Tara blasted her with another magic spell. Hikaru's clothes were ripped and
blood dripped down from her arms and legs. "Hikaru" said Lantis. "I'm fine" said Hikaru
getting back up again. Tara threw her fan at Hikaru cutting her cheek and breaking her
armor. Tara then ran up to Hikaru and kicked her in the face. Hikaru laid on the ground
she couldn't get up. Tara pressed her for against Hikaru's chest. "Well little knight looks
like I win" she said digging the heel of her boot into Hikaru. Lantis watched in agony as
Hikaru laid there helpless. Then he pulled out his sword and shot at Tara.
"What know your boyfriend is trying to help well its worthless" said Tara leaving
Hikaru. Lantis fired again but Tara blocked it. She threw her fan at Lantis making him
fall back. Eagle stood in front of Lantis. "Leave them alone you bitch" said Eagle. Tara
laughed and punched Eagle. Then she cut his neck with her fan and punched him again
Eagle fell to the ground and Tara kicked him in the stomach. "Oh this is so much fun"
said Tara. "FLAME ARROW" screamed Hikaru hitting Tara in the back. Tara fell down
to the ground. Hikaru ran or rather limped to Lantis and Eagle. "We have to get out of
here" said Hikaru helping them both up. The three began to make there way to the
mirror. Tara got up and watch them run. She grinned and took out her boomerang. As the
three ran there was a loud blast from behind. Tara let out a laugh and watch them
struggle.
Outside Fuu laid helpless in her god machine. She was weak and couldn't help
Umi. Umi was blocking all of Aoi's attacks but was getting weaker and weaker at the
same time. "I shall destroy you Magic Knight" shouted Aoi hitting Umi again. Umi
screamed in pain but again managed to block the attack. Suddenly Aoi's god machine
began to glow. "TRY THIS" she shouted. Umi watched as an spear appeared in Aoi's
god machine's hand. She heaved it at Umi. The spear went threw Umi's god machine.
Umi fell back in her god machine.
Fuu looked up and then fell back down. "Miss Hikaru we need your help" she
said softly. Fuu and Umi laid in there god machines. All the could here was Aoi's insane
laughter echoing to threw Cephiro.
Inside the palace Clef was weak and the shield around Castle Cephiro was
weakening. Ferio helped up Clef. The others watched the battle. "Umi and Fuu are
losing" said Ascot. "Whats going to happen to them?" said Caldina. "We can only hope
that Umi and Fuu can hold out until Hikaru comes" said Presea. Clef screamed another
scream in pain. He breathed hard and his eyes were shut tight. "If we don't do something
soon we're all going to die" said Lafarga. "But what can we do?" asked Caldina.
Everyone fell silent except for Clef you tried to fight the pain.
Hikaru stood up and looked back at Lantis and Eagle. "Listen you guys" she said
sternly. "I'm going to slow down Tara you two go threw the mire and then I'll jump
threw and destroy the mirror". Lantis and Eagle nodded and began to run. Tara laughed
and walked up to Hikaru. Hikaru ran behind Eagle and Lantis but farther behind. The two
ran up to the mirror. The looked back at Hikaru who was using her magic to slow down
Tara. "HIKARU WERE GOING THREW HURRY UP" said Eagle jumping threw.
Lantis jumped threw to. Hikaru then smiled as she new they were safe. "FLAME
ARROW" she shouted. Lantis and Eagle watched as Hikaru summoned the arrow to hit
Tara. But instead of hitting Tara, Hikaru turned around and destroyed the mirror to
pieces.
Lantis and Eagle watched the mirror shatter. There mouths dropped and there
eyes widened. "HIKARU" shouted Lantis. "What did you do" said Eagle. The two looked
at a piece of the mirror. Hikaru looked sadly at them. "Only two of us could of left the
mirror" said Hikaru sadly, "and I know you to wouldn't let me stay... you to would be
fighting on who to stay and I couldn't let you guys give your lives up". Lantis and Eagle
fell to there knees. Tears began to stream down there cheeks. "Hikaru..." said Lantis.
"Good bye" Hikaru whispered. Then the vision in the mirror of Hikaru disappeared and
all they heard was Tara's evil laughter but soon it faded.
In the throne room Clef looked up with his eyes widened. "I can sense Lantis
again and another.... but Hikaru... I can't sense her presence anymore" said Clef. Presea
ran out of the room upstairs to Hikaru's room. There she found Lantis and Eagle both
with tears in there eyes.
"Why did you give up your life for them?" said Tara hitting Hikaru. Hikaru
slowly got up. She stumbled a bit but managed to stand with the help of her sword. "Its
because I love them both... there my friends... I love them and everyone else" she said
glaring at Tara. Tara let out a laugh and threw her fan at Hikaru knocking her down
again. "You know that was a waste" said Tara. "What do you mean?" asked Hikaru
wiping blood away from off her cheeks. "You see your friends are going to die, Aoi has
already weakened them and when she's done playing with them she'll kill them. You
should of gone threw Hikaru then maybe you could of saved the".
Hikaru gasped and fell back. Tears streamed down here cheeks. Hikaru sat crying
in a puddle of her own blood. "I failed" she said crying more and more. Tara laughed and
took out her fan. She ran jumped into the air. "Your time to DIE" she screamed. Hikaru
stared at Tara not moving ready for her to make the final blow strait into her heart.
