Chapter 6: Mikagami's Past
"So lets get going to the final Shrine. We have to get the final artifact," said Saya.
"Right, lets go," Misty said. All three of them teleported to the forest. They weren't anywhere near the shrine but this was as close as they could get. Mikagami wasn't too far behind. He followed them quietly. Rasheed and Misty walked together behind Saya. Where as they would be alone. Mikagami glared at Rasheed,
"How many times must I say, leave my sister alone," he said. Misty turned around and looked at him,
"You again...but how?" He pointed to his necklace,
"It has the power to make me immortal. I cannot die, especially if there is a guy like him in love with my sister," he said.
"Lookie here bud, why can't you just accept our love and leave us alone?" Rasheed said.
"Because, you aren't good enough for my sister. Besides a chimp and my sister, hmm that doesn't seem to be a good match," he said.
"Look, Misty isn't your sister. And what makes you think she is?" Saya said.
"Why don't you just explain to us what happened and all," Misty said.
Mikagami grinned,
"Well if it would make you feel any better. And jog your memory, fine I will," he said. Misty sat down on a near by rock while Saya went over and sat on a tree branch. Rasheed didn't want to listen so he went off somewhere.
"It was about five years ago. Back then my parents was still alive. And my sister was still with me. She was my only friend. The only one who could understand me. Unlike my parents who didn't really pay much attention to me," Memories of his past, started to flow through his mind, like a movie that has been on rewind and fast-forward forever. His home was in the woods in Japan. Waterfalls and a small river. Kois in the small pond, where his older sister use to practice fishing. It was a nice warm day. But as usual he was busy practicing his fighting techniques.
"Mikagami! Stop fighting and help me with the chores!" He punched the tree one last time before heading back to his home. It was only a twenty-minute walk back to his home. Until without warning he heard his sister scream. He saw smoke in the distance. He started to run, fear struck him as he saw the smoke. As he got back to his home, he saw it in flames.
"Sister!" he cried. He ran in the burning home. Searching for his family. He ran into one room and gasped at the sight of his parents; dead. H looked around and called out her name. No one answer. He called again until he heard a faint voice from afar. He ran out to the back where he saw two men and his sister. One of them turned to him and spoke,
"You want her? You have to give us what we want. Or say good bye to her," he said.
"Wait until I break your jaw. You'll be sorry for ever messing with my sister!" he shouts. He then charged at them with full force but was sent flying to the air by a mysterious force. The men disappeared with his sister. After that he had fainted due to his terrible wounds.
"And then what happened?" asked Misty. Rasheed turned to them with sudden interest.
"Were you able to kill the men?" Saya asked.
"After what had happened I awoke in a mysterious place. I could remember my sister's cries for help. And the sight of my parents dead," he said Fast forward a bit on the movie then rewind. Back to where he woke up. But it would still be the same. After what had happened he has become a ruthless fighter. A fighter who will do at nothing to get his sister back. The person who had found him turned out to be a master of martial arts and stealth. He was the one who taught Mikagami to fight and even gave him the element sword and the immortality necklace. For five years he has been training. And day-by-day his anger grew. Finding his sister was his one goal. And by the time he had finished his training, he was ready. He then left his new home to find those men. And destroy them once and for all, and reunite with his long lost sister.
"Yeah, yeah?" Misty said anxiously.
"Come on. Tell us what happened next! Did you find those guys and kill them?" Saya asked. Rasheed leaned on the near by tree and listened closely.
"Well here's what happened. It took me a few days to get to their hide out. It was basically deserted. But it didn't mean that those two jerks weren't around..." The hide out was dank and smelly. It was up on the mountains in a cave. Dust and cobwebs everywhere. No one in sight. Everything was trashed; he was about to leave until he saw some movement in the darkness. He cast a light spell and walked over. He gasped when he saw those same men who had captured his sister; half dead. Blood everywhere.
"Who did this?" he demanded. The man coughed; a very weak cough and looked at him,
"A woman...a very powerful one too. The devil she is...born in Hell...never g-gave us the chance,"
"Where's my sister you freak?"
"Her? She's gone...as soon as that woman came, she disappeared along with that witch," he said.
"Then where the hell is she?"
"I told you...she is gone..."
"Why you!" Mikagami yelled. He then punched him hard in the face, causing the man to go flying to the wall. The man groaned and just lay there. His final words were,
"You're going to regret that...may your soul...ROT IN HELL!" and he died. Mikagami spits on the ground and walks out of the cave.
"Worthless monkey...hold on sis, I'm coming for you,"
"So that's why," Misty said.
"Yes, I have been searching for my sister for over five years and came out empty handed. That witch that the man was talking about, she could have taken her away. That's why I will stop at nothing until I find my sister," Mikagami said.
"But why call Misty your sister?" Saya asked.
"Because she looks exactly like my sister...but as I said, it was five years ago," he said.
"By that time I was fifteen. I couldn't really remember anything of my past. But I definitely know I am not your sister," Misty said.
"Suit your self. But that's not going to stop me from protecting you," Mikagami said with a grin.
"Whatever, just stay out for the way and don't screw anything up!" Rasheed said.
"Who said I would screw up?" he said. Misty stood next to Saya and sighed.
"Think this would affect our chances of getting to the shrine fast enough?" Misty asked.
"With those two arguing like that I would be surprised if we would ever get there," Saya said. Both of them looked peeved. They just chuckled at the sight of Rasheed and Mikagami fighting. It was quite amusing to them.
"Ok guys settle down. We have to head to the next shrine before it gets too dark," Saya said.
"SHUT UP!" both of them said. Saya looked annoyed. She took a step forward to give them a piece of her mind until Misty stopped her. She shook her head and said,
"Let me take care of it," she said. She walked over to them and sighed.
"Hey guys, can you two cool? Come on, can't you to hold of the fighting till later? For me?" she asked. Both of them stopped and looked at each other, then back at Misty.
"Alright," they both said in unison.
"They're good boys," Misty said.
"Dang girl, you got skill when it comes to getting boys to settle down," Saya said.
"Whatever, now come on lets go!" she said. Saya nods and starts to lead the way to the final shrine. Misty followed right next to her. This time the shrine was only behind the Forest Temple so they didn't have to travel very far. Rasheed stared at Misty for a while and sighed.
"What are you sighing about?" asked Mikagami.
"None of your business," Rasheed said. Misty laughed to herself. She looked at Saya and smiled. Saya smiled back as well.
"Man you're lucky to have men follow you around and listen to your orders," Saya said.
"Aw come on. Not all the guys listen to me," she said.
"Oh really," Saya asked.
"Really," Misty replied. Saya laughed a bit from that and looked forward,
"Well we're in the Sacred Meadow. We just have to go around the Forest Temple and we are at the shrine," Saya said.
"Well then lets go!" misty said. She then took off ahead of them. Saya ran after her, their laughs echoed in the forest.
"Hey Misty wait up!" called out Rasheed. He started to run after her until he fell. He soon realizes that Mikagami tripped him. He glared up and saw Mikagami giving him the innocent look.
"Oops, clumsy you," he said. He then started to walk ahead until Rasheed tackled him to the ground. The both wrestled their way to the shrine. Meanwhile Misty and Saya were waiting for them.
"Man what's taking them so long?" Misty asked.
"Must be fighting again...well I'll wait here for them while you go in the shrine and get that last artifact," Saya said.
"That I will do," she said. She got up and walked in the shrine. It had a very earthy tone to it. Statues of Farore were lined up and of course there was a huge statue of Farore at the end. Misty began to walk up the emerald green staircase. As she took only a few steps the door behind her slammed shut. She ran back and tried to pull it open.
"Hey...HEY! HELP!" she cried. She rammed the door a couple of times before giving up. Tears started to fall.
"No...this can't happen..."
"Master, don't panic," said her sword of light. A gust of wind had stirred in the area. She looked back towards the statue and saw a figure.
"V-Vladimir?" she said. Yes in fact it was Vladimir. He had long fire red hair and he was garbed in red. His golden eyes seemed to set on her. He started to walk towards her. She pushed her self into the wall. He reached out and touched her cheek.
"B-but how...." She whispered. He kneeled down so his eyes were leveled with hers. He leaned forward and kissed her.
"Noooo," she said. But it came out as a moan.
"No, this isn't the Vladimir I know!" she said in her mind. She tried to push him away but he held onto her firmly. She raised her hand and tried to cast a spell, but her had grabbed her and sent a shock of electricity through her. So powerful that it knocked her out.
"Why...who is doing this?" she said in her mind. After that she was pulled into the darkness.
"So lets get going to the final Shrine. We have to get the final artifact," said Saya.
"Right, lets go," Misty said. All three of them teleported to the forest. They weren't anywhere near the shrine but this was as close as they could get. Mikagami wasn't too far behind.
