"Kurei…" I whispered. "I thought you're—"
"Dead?" he finished the sentence for me. It's been almost a year now. No fights, no disturbances, no kidnappings. Everything was in order…everything is at peace and now THIS? What kind of stupid show is this anyway? He suddenly laughed aloud. "Did you actually think that Kurei Mori is dead? What a silly joke you've got there Fuuko!"
"Tsk…" I smirked in annoyance as I tried to get my Fujin inside my backpack.
Kurei never let his smirk go. He pasted it in his lips, obviously, for me to get annoyed.
I pulled my Fujin on top of my arms and got ready to fight. "It's just a shame that you being dead is just a mere joke!" I started with a smirk like that of his. "Mind if I make it true for you?"
With that, I stepped backward and released a couple of wind pressures installed inside my precious Fujin. It was enough to kill an ordinary person but this guy needed much more than that to just DIE. He avoided every attack that came on his way before guarding his body with his flame.
"I see you've improved a lot! But still, it is not enough to kill me!" Kurei shouted against the still attacking wind before "Nani—"
I smiled. I suddenly stopped attacking as Kurei lowered his flame. "This was your first time, ne Fuuko?" Kurei smirked as blood flowed down his cheeks. "I'm impressed! You're the only girl that wounded me…"
"It's just too bad for that won't be the last wound I'll ever put on your ugly face!"
Kurei brushed the blood from his cheek like a little boy before looking straight at me.
A chill came across my body as I carefully examined his glare. I held my fist tightly as I begun to hold my next attack. "Cut the crap out Kurei! Why are you back?" I shouted at his face.
"This is where I live remember!"
"Don't answer me with that kid stuff! Darn it Kurei! You are wasting my time!" I held my closed fist tightly.
Kurei, yet again, smirked at me, "Why don't you find it out yourself?" This was a challenge.
He held his hands high before producing a different flame. Well, different from the one he used in the past tournament. He was now serious. It was now my turn to defend this time.
I held Fujin near my eyes to block any attack that would come my way. But before I knew it, a big cloud of blue flames came into my area, almost holding me from setting up a defense mechanism. But Kurei was definitely wrong. I was not the same Fuuko he used to practice his "ordinary fighting skills". I am now in Recca's level and this time, I'll defeat him before he can even say 'Hi' to my friends.
With that I closed my eyes as a glass of wind covered my whole body from the killer flame. Seconds passed by until I noticed that everything's back to normal.
No Flame, No damage and No Kurei…
The park was still the same. Suddenly, a soft grasp of air filled the whole place. The petals started to dance gracefully around my now stunned body. It was then that I started to wonder what had happened.
A looked up the dancing blue skies and smelled the fresh air circulating my body.
With that, I sighed aloud. My anger soon flowed out of my body. It was now calm inside.
I slowly stepped forward to mark my way back to school when a petal stopped my tracks and landed at my now opened hand.
It was a sign…a sign that something may happen…
