Okay, here's chapter 7. I own no one unless I tell you I do. Alrighty then? On with this chapter! Man, I really hate writting disclaimers.......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In total silence, Lita led the group to a cliff. The full moon was out again and it was the only thing lighting up the dark night. From the edge of the cliff, it looked as if you could just stretch out your arm and touch the big, luminous orb.
"Stand over there," Lita said, gesturing to a circle of black pebbles. "You'll be perfectly safe in there. No matter what you may see or hear, stay inside of that circle."
The five vampires quickly moved inside of the circle. Heero, Trowa and Wufei sat down on the stone bench that was in the middle of the circle, while Duo and Quatre sat down on the soft and springy grass. They all turned their attention to Lita.
The tall brunette walked to the edge of the cliff and faced the moon. Slowly, she removed her "school girl" pleated plaid skrit, her huge white sweatshirt. her shoes, and her socks. Now she was wearing a pair of daisy-duke spandex black shorts and a black spandex sports bra. She threw her clothes aside and focused her full attention on that glorious moon.
The changes in her body happened almost too fast for anyone to catch. Before that could say a word, a huge white tiger-like beast had just been. It's long, pointed ears twitched at every sound produced from the night or the vampires.
"We're now seeing her true form," Wufei said.
"That thing is huge," Duo said in awe.
"On her hind legs, she's seven foot two inches," Heero said."She weighs almost a full ton. You're now looking upon a full grown Ctral-Ctral. She's way stronger that twenty men and fifteen vampires put together."
"Thank you, Mr.Dictionary," Duo mumbled under his breath.
The tiger stood at about 5 foot 6 inches on all all fours. Even the slightest movements showed off her rippling muscles. Momentarily, she turned her head towards the vampires.
She turned back to the full moon once more and opened her massive mouth. The beast let out a massive roar that seemed to rattle the vampires' bones and shook the very ground they sat on.
"Is it just me or is anyone else getting the jitters," Duo asked.
"Shut up," Wufei scoffed.
The animal seemed to be waiting for something. Then there were a series of several more roars.
"Jaguar," Heero said as the first roar pierced the night."Bengal tiger, cheeta, leopard, snow leopard, black jaguar. Looks like the gang's all here."
"Yes," Trowa said. "Ready, Heero?"
"Ready as I'll ever be," Heero said. "They're probally coming home with us, if I know them."
"I pray that the mansion will survive," Trowa sighed.
From behind the thick forest trees jumped a huge bengal tiger-like beast. It stood in fron of the beast that was Lita and they started to circle each other, snarling and swiping their ham sized paws at one another.
They stood on their hind legs, their paws on both sides of each other's necks. Then suddenly, they stopped all movement They both went back onto all fours and the "bengal tiger" turned towards the forest from whence it came and gave an almighty roar.
Soon after that, a few more huge beasts came out of the forest and stood beside the bengal tiger and the white tiger-beast that was Lita. They were a miss-matched group of large cats. There was a spotted jaguar, a cheeta, a leopard, a snow leopard and a black jaguar.
Quickly, all seven big cats changed form. To three of the five vampires' eyes, there was six women and one man standing where the seven beasts just were. But Heero and Trowa knew better.
Lita let out a shriek of laughter and ran up tp the man, flinging herself into his outstreched arms.
As the tall blonde man hugged Lita tightly and they began talking in rapid french, Duo became jealous.
"What does she see in him," Duo huffed, turning away from the scene.
"Him," Trowa and Heero asked.
"Yeah, the tall blonde dude," Duo said, pointing to the cluster of women at the cliff's edge.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lita was overcome with joy. At first, she had been afraid that they wouldn't take her back. And if she hadn't have proven herself, they wouldn't have.
"Amara," she sighed, hugging her older sister. "I've missed you so much!"
"We've missed you too, Lita," Amara said, lowering her little sister to the ground. "You've gotten stronger, Little one."
"I try," Lita laughed, tears of extreme joy streaming down her pale cheeks.
"Oh, gods, Lita," Serena said, bursting out in tears and hugging her best friend.
The other girls gathered around and hugged the two crying girls. Then a whole crying fest started.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"What are they doing over there," Duo asked, standing on his tiptoes in hopes of getting a better view.
"Crying, hugging, the usual onna thing," Wufei snorted.
"I'm going over there," Duo said, starting to walk out of the circle.
"Get back in here, baka," Wufei shouted, pulling Duo back by his braid. "Didn't you hear what Lita said?"
"Wufei, I didn't know that you cared," Duo said jokingly, play hugging Wufei. "I love you, too, dude."
"Get away from me," Wufei said, shoving Duo away.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I smell...vampires," Rei said, sweeping her keen eyes over the landscape.
"There they are," Amara growled. "It's been so long since I've had pure, fresh vampire blood. And the thrill of the kill...
Let's get 'em."
"No!," Lita shouted, jumping in front of her friends. "You can't kill them!"
"Why not," Rei asked.
"Look closely at the two on the far left," Lita said, taking a hold of Amara's arm.
Amara and the other girls looked as Lita directed.
"Heero and Trowa," Serena exclaimed, clapping her hands.
Quickly, Serena and Mina rushed over to the five vampires, but stopped short outside of the stone circle. The other girls were quick to follow.
"Ohmygosh, Heero," Mins gushed. "I'm so glad to see you! I'd hug you, but I can't cross over the stones."
"Why not, Miss," Quatre asked.
"These are ancient stones from the demon world," Lita explained. "They are permentally rooted in this spot. Ctral-Ctrals can't pass over them. Neither can fairies. They are there for vampire protection. No good can cross them."
"Coolness," Duo exclaimed. "So, you guys can't come in here?"
"Not unless we're invited," Mina and Serena chirped.
Duo noticed that Lita's arm was laced with the tall blonde man's. This made him even angrier.
"Who's this," Duo asked Lita, gesturing to the tall man. "Your boyfriend?"
"Boyfriend," Lita repeated, throughly confused. "Oh, you mean Amara!"
"Yeah, him," Duo said.
"What kind of pansy name is 'Amara' for a man," Wufei snorted.
" 'Amara' is a very beautiful name," said a woman with shoulder-length aqua hair. "And Amara isn't a man or Lita's boyfriend. Amara is a woman."
"And my big sister," Lita added.
"Oh," Duo said, finally getting the picture. "I'm sorry about that."
"It's alright," Amara chuckled. "I get that alot. Shake?"
"Man, you've got a awsome grip," Duo said as he shook hands with the tall woman.
"That's nothing," Mina snorted. "Ctral-Ctrals are very superior beings. We can lift over 50 tons, you know."
"Hnn," Heero grunted. {Translation:"You're bragging again."}
"Oh, I know," Mina chatter. "But hey, if you've got it, flaunt it!"
"Hnn," Heero grunted. {Trans:"You haven't changed a bit."}
"Neither have you, blue eyes," Mina said flirtiously.
"Oh My God," Duo gasped. "Someone who finally speaks Heero! I never thought that I'd see the day! Wow!"
"Who are these clowns," Rei snorted.
"That's Duo Maxwell, that's Wufei Chang and the blonde is Quatre Rebarbra Winner," Lita said, pointing to each vampire in turn. "They're the vampires that I've been living with."
"What about-" Rei began.
"Let's not mention him at such a time," Lita said, closing her eyes. "That's something that should be left in the past."
"Who's 'him'," Duo asked. "And why didn't you intorduce Heero and Trowa?"
" 'Him' is none of your concern," Lita snarled coldly. "And I didn't introduce Heero and Trowa becuase they already know the girls and visa versa."
"Geez, sorry," Duo mumbled.
"I'm sorry, Duo," Lita said. "I'm just not feeling like myself today."
"It's alright," Duo said, smiling charmingly.
"Thanks," Lita said cheerfully. "Oh, I guess I should tell you about the girls! This is Amara, my big sister; Michelle Aragon, Amara's girlfriend, and her little sister Amy; Rei Fuego; and the Moon twins, Serena and Mina. These are the people that I've known all of my life and most of theirs'. They are my family."
"Did you just say that Michelle is Amara's--," Duo started.
"Yes,I did," Lita said.
"You mean--," Duo said.
"Yes," Lita said.
Heero stared at Mina while she started talking to Duo then started arguing with Serena. She still looked just as beautiful as he remembered.
"Oh, Yuy," Amara said suddenly. "I have something for you from a very special someone."
"Who," Heero asked in his ever-present monotone.
"Relena," Amara said in a mocking tone.
Mina snorted in disgust and Heero rolled his eyes.
"Who's this Relena," Wufei asked.
"She's a fairy who's announced herself queen of the whole race," Mina and Serena snorted.
"Don't mind them," Rei said. "They're mad because they are the actual rulers. They are the princesses. They just had to go into hiding to keep safe from...him."
"Again with this 'him' person," Duo said.
"It's been rumored that she has started practicing the dark arts and wants to be the next Demon Queen. That she's gonna challange Elzaim," Amy said informatively.
"She'd have to because Elzaim would never give up without a fight," Lita said.
"In this case, I'm rooting for Elzaim," Rei said. "I hope she whoops Relena good or kills her."
"Let's not talk about Elzaim right now, please," Lita said. "I've been having trouble controlling her lately and all we need is her getting worked up about Relena."
"Alright, Little one," Amara said.
"How have you been lately, Michelle," Lita asked.
"I have my complaints, but who doesn't," Michelle said cheerfully.
"How about we go home now," Lita asked. "I'm starting to feel a little bit woozy."
"Sure. Are you guys coming," Serena asked the guys.
"Are you sure that it's safe," Duo asked skeptically.
"It's fine, baka," Heero said, stepping out of the circle. Trowa was the next to follow, soon followed by Quatre, Wufei and finally, Duo."
"Oh, Heero! I've missed you so," Mina cried, jumping at him and hugging him. And surprisingly, Heero came as close to hugging someone as the guys had ever seen.
"Heero's got himself a girlfriend," Duo snickered.
"Shut up," Heero growled, setting Mina down on her feet.
"Mina's always had a bit of a crush on Heero, but don't tell anyone," Lita whispered to the braided vampire.
"Righto, Miss Kitty," Duo said, mock saluting her.
"Oh, shut up," Lita laughed.
