Part Eight
By Ranma Inverse
The group turned as they heard a scream, and all
they saw was a dazed Mokona with dizzy eyes. "Mokona?!"
The group ran to Mokona. Duo finally caught up behind them.
(He WAS getting a drink of water people, it's not because he's slow.
But maybe slow in the head? Kidding!)
Mokona blinked and shook it's head then began
pointing to the sky. "PUU!!!! PUU!!!!! PUU PUU PUU!!!!"
"Come to think of it...where's Hikaru?" Fuu blinked.
Duo stood up straight, then put a hand to his head. "That little
idiot! She told me to go off and get a drink, maybe she went after Lazitz...gah!
Whatshisname."
"YOU LET HIKARU BE BY HERSELF?! YOU MORONIC MORON!" Umi said, not caring if she sounded stupid. "GOOD GOD YOU'RE THE BIGGEST MORON IN THE WHOLE MORONIC WORLD!" She glared at him.
"So now it appears we must go and locate where
Mr. Lantis is, and then we must save Hikaru." Fuu pushed her glasses
further up along her nose.
------------------------
Hikaru couldn't see.
She found she couldn't move either...whenever she did she felt a nasty shock from whatever was holding her hands tied, her arms bound to her sides, and her leg bound together, below the knees and at the ankles.
She turned her head and felt a shock. She flinched and looked blankly at the blackness. Had she gone blind? Why couldn't she see? .....
"What a fun game this is turning into, isn't it Hikaru-chan?"
Lantis' cold voice spoke volumes.
A tear streamed down Hikaru's face. "Please
leave everyone alone."
"Why Hikaru-chan, I'm just going to have a nice
game of chess with them. What lovely pawns they are, Hikaru-chan."
Th-that....
....that bastard....
.........he was gonna hurt her friends..........
.......................................................and she was too weak to stop him.....
-----------------
"COME ONE LANTIS! COME OUT HERE AND FIGHT US! WE KNOW HIKARU WAS TO WEAK TO GO AGAINST YOU, SO WHERE IS SHE?!" Umi shouted to the sky.
Almost on queue, Lantis smiled on the branch of a tree. A very...very...hateful smile.
Lantis jumped down from the tree. "Legendary
Magic Knights who took Hikaru-chan from me, I issue you a challenge."
(Kuno style! 0.o; )
Umi and Fuu jumped back as he landed, then blinked.
"I accept the challenge!" Umi shouted. Lantis's eyes looked
to Duo.
"I also challenge you."
Duo shook his head and then glared at Lantis.
"SURE! I'D BE GLAD TO KILL YOU!"
"I think it shall be the other way around."
"I don't think so."
-------------------------
Zagato, Emeraude, and Eagle sighed looking through
the mirror.
"That isn't going to go well."
"No Zagato, it isn't."
"It'd be alot nicer if we could get out there and help them."
"But we cannot."
"I know that Emeraude..." Eagle shook his
head and sighed. "But look at Hikaru, this could break her."
Zagato and Emeraude looked at Eagle sharply.
"We know. We know...but she owes you thanks to being alive.
And we can't help more than just talking to them."
"But I did. I was able to touch her forehead..."
"YOU TRIED?!" Emeraude cried. "Your very
existance could have been wiped out!"
"But her spirit was just lying there...helpless.
I couldn't just not pick her up."
Zagato put his arms around Emeraude. "I
understand, Eagle."
They turned to watch the redheaded girl from the mirror.
-----------------------
Umi looked to Duo, and then walked to Lantis. "I shall fight you first."
They drew there swords, and prepared to fight.
--------------
Hikaru cried out in pain as she scooted herself over to a wall...or at least she thought it was. She couldn't see still. The shocking pains wouldn't stop now. "If he was gonna kill me he coulda just done it fast..." Hikaru whispered.
--End of Part Eight--
...Will Hikaru die, or will someone else?
Will Umi live through the fight with Lantis?
Will Duo live afterwards?
Will ANYONE live?!
Yes, of course ^.~ If this was gonna have a bad ending I woulda
put "DARKFIC" in big letters next to it. n.n
OOoohhhhh...I just noticed something, IT STILL IS A CLIFFHANGER!
XD Because you don't get to see the rest of the scene. XD HA!!!
