Aspera: Yay! I'm updating! Sorry it takes so long to update each time, but
life has been busy. Hopefully I'll be able to update somewhat regularly
from now on. Anyway, please r&r and let me know what you think. Arigato.
Disclaimer: I, Aspera, do not own anything or anyone from the anime, Blue Seed. But hey, I can always dream right?
A New Beginning Chapter Ten: To Fight For Something
Regina did not move, but merely watched Kusanagi with a bit of fear and interest. A noise caught her attention and, hearing it, she turned to see where and what it had come from. It was Momiji. It seemed she was coming around. It was obvious she was still weak and, realizing this, Regina was ready to take any advantage given to her. She began to slowly move a few steps backward, heading towards Momiji yet keeping her eyes locked on Kusanagi.
Kusanagi watched this and kept that same nerve wrecking look on his hard features, "I suggest you reconsider." She stopped her movements backward, "If you don't mind me asking, reconsider what exactly?" He couldn't resist the little smirk that placed itself upon his lips, "What you were doing." She returned his smirk, "And what would that be?" It seemed she was gaining her nerve back, as she watched that handsome face. Her hair began to slither about, growing to outstanding lengths, moving behind her onto the ground and continued to grow.
Kusanagi watched her vine-like hair with weary eyes. He's fought monsters with powers like hers, and to tell you the absolute truth, they were rather tough battles. "I'm going to tell you this now, Regina." His voice was dark, dangerous; "You'll not have Momiji while I continue to breath; while I continue to live." Regina stared at him for a moment, then burst into a fit of hysterical laughter. Kusanagi did nothing. He was as silent as an ancient Greek statue and as still as one.
After a few moments, her laughter finally died down and she spoke to him in an unusually calm voice, "Really, Kusanagi, do you think you can actually beat me?" She awaited an answer, but when none came, she scoffed him, "Ha! I thought not, you're just another weak aragami, Kusanagi, and that's all you'll ever be. To me, to every mortal, and immortal alike and," she motioned to Momiji's still unconscious form, "even to her, your beloved kushinada, your only lover, the only one in this world who excepts you for who you pretend to be. normal."
Her nails and toes began to grow in length, forming large claws with dangerous points. He stood his ground, "Are you finally going to fight me Regina?" That remark seemed to agitate her beyond her reasoning and her eyes started to glow red, "You'll pay for your remarks, Kusanagi." His lips formed a rakish grin, "We'll see, Regina, we'll see." Regina let out a hideous and nerve grating laugh. It seemed that, as her body was changing, her voice, thoughts and attitude did as well. Kusanagi frowned visibly as her hair stopped and grew sharp edges, and as her nails shaped into dagger- like points.
This was not going to be as easy as he might have first thought. Not easy, that was for sure.
"Regina, I'm afraid that this is where it will end. That is to be sure. But, it will not end in your favor. I will beat you and take Momiji back." His voice was harsh, rough, a sweet seduction. Regina felt fear creep into her heart. But, having learned incredible abilities at such a young age, she easily covered her fear with a defiant smirk. "I'm sorry Kusanagi, but this will end in my favor, and my favor only. For I'm afraid your time is up." Her voice came out in hisses now, and her tongue looked exactly like a snakes; split at the end. "I will take what is rightfully mine; The Kushinada. I, the new leader of the aragami, shall take her and extract my revenge from these worthless humans!! It was their fault my father died!! They killed Murakumo, MY FATHER!!" (Yes, I decided to make Murakumo her father. I will tie in her past somewhere it the story to make it fit. I know he's alive in Blue Seed 2, but if you read this story, please stick to the fact that he is dead... for now at least.)
Kusanagi was instantly taken aback. 'Murakumo...? Her father...?' He couldn't seem to digest that information... it seemed impossible for his mind to accept, yet he had to... it would be important information to remember after Regina's defeat. Regina stared at him coolly, her eyes and matamas glowing red. She gave a harsh chuckle and crossed her arms across her now bare chest, her clothes having been ripped off during her transformation. Her skin was now scaly, green, yet looked smooth to touch. (She looks sort of like that girl from X-Men, but still a lot different.) " Is it really that hard to accept, Kusanagi? That I'm the daughter of your greatest adversary? Well, Kusanagi, grass cutter, kushinada protector, believe me when I tell you this: I am far stronger than my father, and I will kill you for relieving me of my only role model, my only family, my only father." Her voice sounded strained now, as if were hard for her to talk about such a thing as this. "He was all that I had! How would you feel if Momiji was taken from you?! How would you feel at my age, having lost the person you care for most?! I WILL KILL YOU!!"
Kusanagi hissed, "Not likely! If anybody is going to kill anybody, it will be I killing you!! Do you hear me?! It will be you!!" Kusanagi was tired of talk; he wanted action now that his temper was irked! His aura grew, and his eyes seethed in utter rage. He charged at her with incredible speed with a howl of unmatched anger. He was close to her now, but there was one thing he did not see and did not realize...
End of chapter!
Aspera: Yes, I finally updated! It's a true miracle; anyway, I sincerely hope you enjoyed this chapter! I know I'm evil... leaving such a cliff hanger, but I promise to write more as soon as possible, now that my internet problems are finally taken care of! I also hope that my improvements in my grammar have been noticed. I went over my older chapters and found a lot of mistakes, though I am still proud of the ideas for my stories. I might be starting, yet another Blue Seed story, or even a Legend of Dragoon story. I have yet to make up my mind. Anyway, enough of my jibber-jabber. Thank-you very much for taking time to read this fragment of the story. I've decided to extend this story to as many chapters as possible! Arigato again!
