chapter 2: Truth, Lies, and Love
Kelsha stood amazed looking over the group that had just entered the room. She stepped back alittle beside herself and looked over at Kurei. He cleared his throat and smiled.
"Allow me to introduce the elemental masters," he began. "Nagai Mokuren, user of plants to attack less fortunate, Reiran, who controls marionettes, and Ganko is around somewhere, Sekioh, who uses stone as his element. And lastly the ones who are missing," Kurei said glaring. "Kaoru and Neon, who will be filled in on this later."
"Um...nice to meet you?" Kelsha said looking over all the people in the door way. Her eyes met with Nagai Mokuren's as he grinned and started to chuckle.
"NO!"Kurei said angrily.
"Awh, commme on boss, can't I just make her scream alittle, its so pleasing!" He said almost to the point of a whine.
Kelsha stood back and looked alittle discusted holding up her sword. Kurei raised his hand.
"I don't want to see any blood if you don't mind, yet."he said looking over the group.
"Sorry sir." Kelsha said bowing her head slightly.
"No need." He said grinning patting her shoulder.
"So what exactly is she going to do to help us?" Reiran said eyeing her.
"Well, the thing is, she knows Recca, the other flame master, perhaps a close friend of his, she will lure him here somehow and then.." He began. "We will get him right where we want him."
"Then he will tell us where the healer is." A voice said entering the room.
"Father." Kurei said bowing his head slightly.
'Father?' Kelsha thought looking at the man who had just entered the room.
"Well, who is this fine young lady, I go by the name of Mori." He said holding out his hand to her.
"Her name is Kelsha, she has a lead to bringing Recca and possibly the Healer here."Kurei said seeming alittle happy.
Mori nodded and smiled. 'Soon,' he thought. 'I will soon be immortal.'
Kelsha walked back to the entrance way with Kurei, as it was getting late and everyone would worry about her.
"You are welcome to stay if you wish." Kurei said sounding a bit concerned.
"Oh, no thank you, I'll be fine, I should be getting back anyway, family will start to worry." She said. "I will work tonight to figure out a plan, is tomorrow ok for him to come?"
Kurei smiled. "Why yes."
She smiled and ran out the door waving, Kurei slowly waved back as if he was unsure of what to do.
"Kurei." A voice came from behind him. "Who was that."
He turned around and saw Neon standing there seeming alittle steamed.
"None of your concern." He began. "Just our new weapon."
Kelsha walked along the path she had taken there and walked to the back of the house which looked oddly darkened. She walked closer realizing that the house had caught fire and was burned to the ground only a few door frames remaining. There was no one there and people had just asumed Kelsha was sleeping at the time and was engulfed in the fire and was burned to ashes. She ran around to the front of the house and saw a lot sign.
'Lot for sale.' She thought. "They sure do move quickly." She sat down on a rock and pulled out her sword. "Should I go back, I don't want to intrude or anything, but I have no place to go."
She said getting up and leaning her sword to her shoulder. She continued back on the path until she came to the mansion once more. She sighed and looked up as lights flickered off, but the dining room light was still on a bit, looked as thought the flickering of a tv.
"Oh!" she said quietly to herself and walked up to the door. She was at a mid knock when the door opened once again. It was Kurei, he was dressed in a long black kimono made of fine silk it seemed.
"Is something wrong?" he asked looking at her oddly.
"My-My house, my dojo, it burnt to the ground,my family thinks I'm dead I have no place to go." She said looking alittle upset.
"Come in, your welcome to stay as long as you'd like." He said leading her inside.
She followed him for quite sometime until they got to a room.
"You can sleep on the bed, I will take the couch." He said closing the door.
"Oh, no its okay, I wouldn't want to impose,I can sleep on the couch if you'd like.." she said looking up at him.
He shook his head. "No it's quite alright, you have school tomorrow, you need a good night's rest." He said sitting down on the couch.
She sat down on the bed and cuddled to a pillow and slowly feel asleep. The sun rose and seeped through the window as Kelsha slowly opened her eyes. She got up and stretched careful not to wake Kurei sneaked out of the room. She left a note on the door 'I'll be back later with Recca.' And with that she left the mansion and ran to school.
"Kelsha!" a voice yelled as Mikan walked into English class.
"Oh, hey Mikan." Kelsha said seeming a bit distracted.
"Kelsha I tried to call you last night, but no one answered." She said looking alittle worried.
"Oh, yeah..my house burnt down..so I had to go and seek refuge in a house in the woods." She said trying not to make it sound off.
"House in the woods?" she asked.
"Mm..yea..I just had to keep walking, its not too big but I can live in there and at least get some shelter." Kelsha said smiling.
"Hey," Kelsha began. "Could you and Recca come over and maybe help me set things up so its alittle more hommier?"
"Sure!" Mikan said happily. "We'd be glad to help."
"Great." Kelsha said grinning.
After school they met outside the lunch room and headed on their way to Kelsha's new house. They reached the remains of her old house and continued to walk up the trail.
"It's alittle ways up." Kelsha said smiling.
"Okay Kelsha." Recca said. "Lead the way."
"With pleasure."
