Pain of the Sword v2.0
___________
Sage pulled his sword back and wiped the sweat on his forehead away with his arm. Breathing deeply, he looked around. Somehow he and Kento had ended up outside. Both of them where surrounded by tons of Hounds.
"We kill them and more appear." Kento growled as he knocked down two Hounds.
"I see that." Sage huffed, "Can you see how they're faring inside?"
"Five words, Mia's not going to be happy." Kento said as the braking of glass filled their ears. Sage winced at the thought of Mia's reaction to all this.
"That's six you idiot."
"Oh ya."
Taking a strong swipe with his sword, yellow blood fell to the ground.
~*~*~*~*~
"Ouch! My butt." Itachi whined as he landed hard on his rear-end.
"Sorry 'bout that." Atsui and Itachi turned around to see Mia, with body, and Yuli holding her arm.
"Mia!" Both men shouted as they scrambled to their feet.
"Where did you go?" Atsui asked.
"I had to go get my body back. I can't fight very well if I don't have any power." Mia looked down at Yuli signaling him to release her arm. When he did, Mia began to glow and two swords appeared in her hands.
"So are we going to fight or just stand around here?" Mia asked letting the swords daggle in her hands. The two men smirked and opened to door as Mia powered up. Just as the hounds charged in through to door, a beam of light demolished them. Others Hounds, which where behind the ones killed, went flying out of the room and over the balcony.
"Wow! That was awesome Mia!" Yuli beamed up at her.
"Why thank you. What do you all say to cleaning house?" Mia raised and eyebrow at the men who smirked.
~*~*~*~*~
Harial drew his swords and cut through several Hounds only to have some jump on his back. Ryo came up behind him and with great force he knocked the Hounds off Harial's back.
When free, Harial placed his swords in the ground and put out his hand and blasted the Hounds with fire.
Cye raised his trident to hit a Hound when one tackled him to the ground.
"Now I have you little Ronin of water." It hissed in Cye's ear. The Hound took his dagger to Cye's throat, ready to cut his head off.
Cye gathered his strength and kicked the Hound off and onto a broken chair leg.
"It's Torrent!" He huffed standing up and dusting himself off.
Cye reached down to pick up his trident when another Hound jumped on his back, knife aimed at his heart. Cye struggled as much as he could, but he couldn't shake the Hound. Frustrated and tired, Cye waited for the sharp edge to penetrate his armor and enter his body. It never came.
Instead Cye felt the Hound fly off of him. Turning around, Cye saw Mia standing beside Atsui, Itachi, and Yuli.
Releasing one sword it floated in the air. With the hand she had just freed, Mia pushed it out and a group of Hounds went flying through the kitchen door.
"Nice." Harial said walking up to her.
"I'm a little rusty." Mia shrugged.
"Never send idiots to do the easy stuff." A voice huffed behind them. The Hounds cowered and moved into the shadows as Tanoshii moved towards the group. At that time Sage and Kento came running into the house.
"Hey where'd all the Hound- Okay!" Kento stopped short when he saw Tanoshii standing close to his friends. This caused Sage to run into his back.
"Ouff! Why'd you stop?" Sage rubbed his head and looked around his large friend, "Oh."
"Well now that we are all here let me begin by saying I will not be as foolish or as lenient as I was before." Tanoshii placed his hands in a pray form.
"Yeh, I bet." Ryo scoffed.
Tanoshii just ignored the remark and pulled his hands apart to his sides, the palms parallel to the floor. Two black, slender blobs rose up from the floor underneath his hands.
"What the?" Cye stepped back as the blobs began to take shape and rise into the air.
"May I introduce," Tanoshii paused while the black that covered the two figures shattered like glass, "Ying and Yang." He smiled as two girls dressed in Chinese garb floated down to his side.
The one on his right, called Ying had a cream dress on with a slit up the left side going up all the way to the top of her hip. A long cream stole hung off her shoulder and wrapped over her arm from behind her back. Her Skin was a snowy white color to go with the very flaxen hair that had ribbons all in it. Her eyes though stood out, they were a very dark brown, almost black.
The one on his left, Yang, wore a red dress on with a slit on both sides going up to the top of her hip. She had red stole hanging over her arms. Yang's skin was a dark copper color and her hair black with gold ribbons hanging down. Her eyes, like Ying's, stood out; they were a light cornflower blue.
Both girls turned sideways and leaned their backs on Tanoshii.
"You rang boss?" Yang smirked crossing her arms over her chest.
"Yah I was having such a nice nap." Ying yawned stretching her arms over her head.
"Have at it ladies, but remember Harial is mine." Tanoshii smirked.
"Alright!" Both the girls yelled at the same time, throwing their fists into the air. In a split second the two girls jumped into the air and vanished.
"Where'd they go?" Kento looked around.
"Right behind you sweetheart." A voice called behind him. Kento turned around only to be kicked so hard in the head that he went flying through the wall.
"Oh my. I guess I don't know my own strength." Ying giggled as she floated in a sitting position.
Ying was knocked out of her position when an arrow went whizzing through her hair. Her eyes widened as blond hair went falling to the floor. Looking down Ying saw Rowen aiming another arrow at her.
"Now just were have you been?" Sage turned to his arrow-shooting friend.
"Had to take care of some nasty looking rats on the roof." Rowen gave his friend a quick smile.
"You're going to pay for that one." She growled as a bright light appeared between her hands, "Yes you are going to pay deeply for that." Taking back her hands she released the blue ball upon Rowen.
"I don't think so bitch." Mia jumped in the way blocking the attack with her swords.
Mia put her swords down and looked back at Rowen who nodded in thanks.
"Harial I think you might need some help." Mia looked at Harial as Tanoshii began to advance on him.
"Right. Boys!" Harial looked over at the Guardians. They stepped forward and Harial closed his eyes. The Guardians glowed white and then shot into Harial's body.
Mia turned back around to face Ying when Yang came up behind her and put a wooden pole to her throat. Mia gagged and her hand shot up to pull the pole away from her neck.
Yang just laughed and pulled the pole towards her, causing Mia to be pulled to Yang's chest.
"Mia!" Sage shouted running up to her and Yang, but Ying dropped down in front of him.
"Say goodnight lightning boy." Ying waved her hand in front of his face causing Sage's site to go black. Ying kicked him in the head, causing Sage to fall on the table.
"I can't see!" He yelled trying to reach out to Ying, who just laughed and jumped up to the balcony behind her.
"Not so fast lady." A voice growled behind her.
"Huh?" Confused Ying turned around, "Ah! How'd you stay conscious after that blast?" Ying jumped when she saw Kento twirling his nun chucks (not real sure bout spelling).
"Hard head, very hard head." Kento jumped on her causing both of them to go flying off the balcony and onto the floor below. Lucky for us our hero was on the top. (AN: He he, poor girl, I would hate to have Kento land on me after such a fall, especially with that armor on. Can we say ouch.)
"Oww." Ying moaned underneath Kento.
"Serves you right for knocking me through a wall." Kento smirked.
"Girls stop playing around!" Tanoshii scolded them as he walked closer to Harial, who was still getting the Guardian's powers.
"Right boss!" Both girls said at the same time. Ying pushed Kento off of her and then drew a sword out of the air.
Yang held Mia as Ying drew the blade to Mia's heart.
"Flare-Up Know!!!" Ying and Yang turned their heads just as a large ball of fire was headed towards them.
"Ahh!" Yang dropped Mia and both jumped out of the way only to be caught by a very angry Cye and Rowen.
"Now you say goodnight." Sage smirked as he slashed his sword into Ying's body. She cried out in pain then turned into black smoke.
"Ying!" Cried Yang just before and arrow dug into her heart.
"Ah!" She grasped at her chest. "You little blood sucking rat! I'll eat you alive for that."
Running at Rowen, Yang pulled the arrow from her chest. Her bloody hand shot in front of her face and ninja stars appeared.
Rowen's eyes widened as blood shot up into the air.
Yang fell to the ground in two thuds. Rowen looked over to his left and saw Mia kneeling on one knee, sword held out to the side, parallel to the ground. Looking up at Rowen, her eyes dimmed from the bright yellow back to their normal color.
"Mia?" Rowen stepped forward and Mia's head snapped to the side.
"Oh no!" Mia gasped as she saw Harial still gathering the power and Tanoshii drawing his blade, "Harial!" She yelled out breaking his meditation.
"Ah!" Harial yelped before jumping out of the way of Tanoshii's sword.
"It's a good thing you have her with you." Tanoshii smirked at Harial.
"You tried to kill her, your own love." Harial shook his head and drew his swords.
"Not my love, Terry's." Tanoshii ran at Harial who blocked his attack.
Harial's knees began to buckle at the demons strength. He had not yet gathered all the power he needed to defeat Tanoshii. Groaning Harial squared off his shoulders and pushed forward with all his might. Tanoshii didn't let off any.
"Over the years I have gotten stronger Harial while you, you have gotten weaker." Tanoshii scoffed at Harial.
'What do I do? I need to get more power but how?' Harial thought to himself. Just then Ryo jumped on Tanoshii's back and began to beat Tanoshii's head with the hilt of his swords. Soon enough all the boys joined in. They were able to get Tanoshii off of Harial. The Ronin's stood protectively around Harial and Mia walked in between the group and Tanoshii.
"Take it Harial!" Mia yelled at Harial. She put her swords in the wood floor and drew her hands together. Closing her eyes, Mia's body began to glow a pale blue. When sparks started to shoot off her body Harial shook his head.
"No Mia! Don't! Don't do this!" He yelled at her as her eyes and mouth shot open and a beam of light went straight into Harial's body.
"Take it." Mia said before falling to the ground.
