"A New Discovered Power"
Part Seven
"What happened during the battle, Kryos?"
"I do not know, Master Persha. All of a sudden, the boys became more powerful. I wasn't expecting it to happen."
"I've told you not to underestimate them."
"I know, Master. This will be the last time I underestimate them."
"It better be, Kryos, or else."
"Yes, Master."
"Hey, you guys, it snowed last night!" Ryo looked out the window and saw that everything was covered in a blanket of snow. "Can I go outside, Ryo? Please?"
"Not yet, Yuli. After we eat, we'll go outside." They walked downstairs with White Blaze behind them and went into the dining room where they saw everyone, except Rowen, at the table.
"Hey, you guys, how are you this morning?"
"We're fine, Cye. Hey, Mia, did you finish your work?" Mia lifted herself from her sulking position.
"Huh? Um, yeah."
"Hey, Mia, it looks like you didn't get any sleep."
"I couldn't sleep last night. Something was just bothering me, I guess."
"Ryo, can I go outside now?"
"Sure, Yuli."
"Yeah! Come on, White Blaze. Come on, Mia." He grabbed Mia by the arm and pulled her off the chair and toward the door.
"Hey, wait for us!" Kento stuffed one more egg in his mouth and went toward the door with Sage and Cye behind him. Kento, Cye, and Sage went outside with their subarmor on, while Mia and Yuli wore their heavy coats. Ryo leaned against the window, looking out as Rowen came down the stairs yawning and stretching.
"Mornin', Ryo. If you want to go outside so badly, just go."
"I don't feel like going outside, Ro."
"Then why are you looking outside?"
"I'm just thinking about Mia."
"What about?"
"Well, lately she hasn't been getting any sleep because she's been up all night. She says that something is bothering her. I think it has to do something with Persha."
"So?"
"Look at her right now, Ro." Rowen stares at Mia running outside after Sage. Kento hit her in the head with a snowball and she threw one back at him. "She looks so happy and carefree. She doesn't know what's ahead of her. She's just living her life like a normal person. I'm afraid that once she finds out about her armor and everything, she won't be able to live her life like this anymore. Don't you remember when you found out about your armor and how everything changed?"
"I remember, Ryo. But Mia has been through this kind of stuff before, with Talpa. It probably won't be that much of a difference."
"Maybe you're right, Rowen."
"Gotcha, Mia!"
"Hey! That was a cheap shot, Kento!" Two more snowballs hit Mia from behind. "Cye! Sage! Why is everyone ganging up on me?" She chased after Cye and Sage with two huge snowballs, but saws a pair of glowing eyes in the woods. Huh? I wonder what that was.
She went into the woods through all the branches. She saw s a pair of eyes, and something jumped out from behind a tree. "White Blaze? Don't scare me like that. I guess those eyes were yours."
She started to walk out with White Blaze and looked behind her. She saw the glowing eyes again, but they disappeared. If White Blaze is here, then what was that? Mia got hit in the head. "Kento!"
Mia sat up in bed with her knees toward her chest. What was that thing that I saw today? I thought it was White Blaze, but it couldn't have been. He was right next to me. Mia got out of bed and readjusted her long, blue nightgown. She walked out of her room and towards the living room.
As she went into the kitchen, she heard something coming from outside. "What's that? Maybe it's what I saw earlier today." She went to the window and saw something coming towards the door. She grabbed a book by the nearby table and waits by the door. When the door opened, she hit the thing on the head with the book.
"Ow!" Mia looked around and saw White Blaze.
"Huh?"
Mia came out of the kitchen with two cups of tea and a bag of ice. She placed the stuff on the table and sat on the rug against the couch next to Ryo, who was in a tee-shirt and pajama pants. "I'm so sorry I hit you over the head, Ryo. I thought you were a burglar or... something."
"It's okay, Mia." He put the bag of ice on his head where Mia hit him.
"What were you doing up, anyway?"
"I couldn't get to sleep. My mind was too overwhelmed, so I decided to go outside and do some practicing. Then I thought I would come inside, and well, you know what happened next. Why are you up?"
"Well, if I told you, you would probably think I was crazy or something." She took a sip of her tea.
"Trust me, Mia. Nothing can be stranger than what I've gone through, and I've gone through plenty."
"Well, I've been seeing and hearing things lately. I always have a feeling that someone is watching my every move. That's why I couldn't sleep the past couple of days. Earlier today, I saw something in the woods and went to go check it out. First, I thought it was only White Blaze, but when he was with me, I saw the thing again." She looked at her tea and looked at Ryo with a little smile. "That sounds crazy, doesn't it?"
"Not at all, Mia." Why hasn't she figured out everything yet?
Next morning
Kento, Rowen, Cye and Sage looked at Mia and Ryo sleeping on the floor. Mia had her head on Ryo's chest and his arm around her. They all started to whisper to each other. "What should we do, Sage?"
"Maybe we should wake them up."
"But they look so cute together. Maybe we should wait a little longer," Rowen said.
"They have to wake up sometime." Kento kneeled down and started to tickle Mia's right foot, while Cye tickled one of Ryo's feet. They both started to squirm around and finally Mia opened her eyes.
"What time is it?"
"It's time to wake up."
Mia got on her feet and stretched while Ryo sat up against the couch. "I guess I should get ready. We have to go shopping today, anyway. Thanks, Ryo." Mia fixed her nightgown and walked toward her room. Ryo stretched his arms out and yawned.
"So, Ryo, what were you doing in the living room with Mia last night?" Rowen asked.
"Mia couldn't get to sleep and neither could I, so we stayed up a while and talked."
"Are you sure?"
Ryo started to blush. "Yeah, I'm sure."
"You know, I think Ryo has a little thing going on for Mia. That's why he was so worried about her and why he was looking at her yesterday."
"It does make sense, Ryo."
"Cut it out, you guys."
Kryos stood on top of a cliff, looking down at the road. "Soon those Ronin Warriors and the girl will get what they deserve."
"Hey, Rowen, you know where we're going?"
"Of course I know, Kento. I'm not dumb."
"Yeah. He's smarter then some people I know," Cye said.
"Yeah. Hey, were you talking about me?" Kento asked. Everyone began to laugh, but Mia stopped suddenly. She looked at the road ahead where there was a giant cliff.
Hmm. I know something's out there, but what? Huh! "Rowen, get off the road now!"
"What?" Mia grabbed the wheel and steered the car off the road.
"What did you do that for, Mia?" Ryo asked. They heard a rumble and saw that several boulders came rolling down the cliffside. "Mia, did you know…"
"Did you know that those boulders were going to come down?" Sage asked.
"I felt something, but I didn't know what. Huh?"
"What is it?"
"Get out of the car." Everyone got out of the car before a giant blast came toward the car and destroyed it.
"Well, I guess you boys had some luck today."
"Kryos! Why don't you just leave us alone?"
"Because if I did that, I wouldn't have any fun. Dark Ice Strike!" Everyone jumped out of the way, except for Mia.
"Mia, watch out!" Mia jumped into the air just before the attack hit the ground and landed on a rock coming out of the cliff about ten feet off the ground.
"Wow. I didn't know I could do that."
"The girl is starting to develop her skills as a warrior. I better be careful."
"Thunderbolt Cut!"
"Arrow Shock Wave!"
"Flare Up Now!" The attacks hit Kryos straight on and he screamed in pain.
"I wasn't ready, Ronins, but I will be next time." He disappeared in a flash. Mia jumped off the rock and landed on the ground.
"Hey, Mia. I never knew you could do that."
"Neither did I."
