Yue sped over the dark streets; Sakura and Keroberrows following close behind. Already he could feel his strength ebbing.
"How am I going to protect her?" He spotted Li running down the sidewalk in an attempt to reach Sakura's house. Plunging downward he picked Li up and kept on flying towards the park.
"Hey! What are you doing Yue! Put me down, I need to get to Sakura's!" Yue almost lost his grip on the struggling boy's arms.
"Please, hold still. Mistress is following behind. We are going to the park; there is a strong power there."
"A strong power?"
"Yes, it is Ruby Moon and Spinnel Sun. They are there and waiting for us." Yue's cat-like eyes narrowed. "They are extremely powerful so be on your guard. If..." He swallowed hard. "If I should fail, please, protect Sakura for me." Li looked up into Yue's face, cold and emotionless as it had ever been.
"I will." They neared the park and the power signature grew stronger, almost overwhelming Yue and Li. Behind them, Sakura and Keroberrows faltered and stopped.
"Yue, Li! Wait!" Sakura called them back. "What are we to expect?"
"They are strong. Stronger then you can imagine. It will be a very difficult battle and none of us may survive." Yue gripped Li's arms tighter. "Mistress, you must stay out of danger, Keroberrows will protect you." Suddenly he folded his wings and dropped, flaring them just in time to prevent Li and himself from hitting the ground. Sakura gasped and followed.
"Yue! Don't do that again! You scared me, I thought you..."
"I'm alright Mistress, I didn't mean to worry you." He bowed his head and turned to walk into the park. "I will take care of Ruby, you two, Keroberrows and Li, fight Spinner and protect Mistress."
"Yue, let me fight with you." Keroberrows stepped forward.
"No, I will go alone." He spread his wings and flew into the darkness.
"They are coming." Spinner grinned wickedly. "Good luck." He ran off to meet Keroberrows and Li.
"Ruby Moon." Yue walked over to her. "Why are you doing this?"
"My dear Yue, you of all people should know. Join us and be free of that overbearing Mistress. You know you want to, deep down inside your soul." She spread her arms. "Spinner and I did the right thing and got away from Clow Reed. You should do the same, open your free will. Be with me."
"I can't do that Ruby, you know I can't."
"Why! Clow abandoned you!" She whipped out a knife of pure energy and glared at her 'brother'. "Come with us!"
"No, I'm sorry."
"Then you will die! Just like your Mistress!" She threw herself at him and drove the knife into his side, only, it wasn't there. He had flown above her and was drawing an arrow, firing at her. "Arggh!" She screamed and dodged the blue streak, flying up to him, grabbing his shoulders. His eyes widened as he felt the tip of the knife enter his back, just missing his spine. Blood streamed and dripped through the air, collecting in a puddle beneath them. "I have won!" Thunder clapped in the distance.
"No," he gasped, "you haven't!" Shoving her away he threw an energy blast at her. Catching her shoulder, she veered away leaving Yue to recover a bit. She threw her knife away and used crystal shards instead. Yue dodged, but not fast enough, the shards ripped into his shoulder and chest making him falter and dive. His wings disappeared and he crashed into the ground. The pain was unimaginable, coming at him from all sides. He pushed it away and drawing another arrow he aimed and shot, striking her side.
"How can you do this!" She cried. "Why are you fighting?" She fired an energy blast at him. He dodged and flared his wings forcing himself up into the air. Locking his hands with hers he forced her to the ground. Suddenly he felt his power drain and heard a scream echo through the air, Sakura. He let go of his enemy and tried to fly away but Ruby caught his arm.
"Let me go!" Yue yelled and struggled, firing crystal shards at the anchor. One slashed her cheek and gashed her shoulder but she held on tightly.
"I'm afraid I can't do that Yue."
"Sakura!" Keroberrows roared and fired a long stream of flame from his mouth forcing Spinner away from her unconscious form. Li was not far away trying to stagger to his feet and come to the large lion's aid.
"Sakura..." he whispered. He withdrew his sword and ran, yelling, at the Black Panther. He drove it deep into the feline's side and collapsed against it, falling unconscious. Spinner roared and leapt away, taking Li's sword with him. Blood was streaming down his pelt creating deep, dark rivulets in the luxurious fur.
"You will die Keroberrows!" He lunged and sank his teeth into the tan neck making the lion scream with pain. Raking Spinner with his claws they both sank onto the ground. Rain had begun to fall and mingled with their blood making it stream into the streets.
She stood, looking over his barely lucid form, rain falling on his face. Blood seeped from under him and soaked his robes a crimson color, dripping from his mouth and staining his wings.
"I have won Yue. You can't defeat me and your Mistress is no where to be found. The boy failed and so did Keroberrows. You are alone." Yue struggled to get up.
"You..." He coughed and spit up blood, eyes blazing. "What have you done to her!" Staggering to his feet he created a weak energy blast in his hand. "Where is she!"
"Dead." Ruby said simply. "I'm sure of it, that Spinner has taken care of her."
Well, I guess I'm writing one more chapter. Sorry guys but I couldn't think of any more. r&r
